Client Reviews
Posted on Google M HolbertTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you’re looking for an unforgettable ocean experience, look no further than Aloha Ocean Excursions. Our group had the absolute pleasure of joining Kris and his incredible crew for the manta ray night tour, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we stepped on the boat, Kris and his team created an atmosphere that was welcoming, fun, and completely reassuring. Their knowledge of the ocean was impressive, not just in terms of marine life, but also the rich folklore and stories they shared, which made the entire experience feel even more meaningful. When it came to the manta rays, it was clear we were in expert hands. Kris and his crew demonstrated a deep respect, care, and understanding of these amazing creatures, which made us feel both safe and privileged to witness them up close. What really stood out was how attentive and personable the crew was. Every single member of our group felt seen, supported, and genuinely cared for throughout the tour. They struck the perfect balance of professionalism and humor, keeping everyone relaxed, engaged, and smiling the entire time. We enjoyed the experience so much that we immediately booked a daytime snorkel trip for the very next day, and it was just as fantastic. If you’re considering an ocean excursion, don’t hesitate, book with Kris and Aloha Ocean Excursions. You’ll be in amazing hands and guaranteed an experience you won’t forget.Posted on Google A AristiguietaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We did the Manta Ray snorkeling with Kris, and it was the highlight of our trip. Not only was the activity absolutely incredible, but the experience and atmosphere Kris created was delightful and smooth. We will surely be back!Posted on Google K LiesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is our second time using Kris! Not only is he very personable, he is fun and knowledgeable. He takes the time to make sure you get to see the manta rays. The first time we saw 4. This year when we went he took us to a different location and we saw 6-8!!! It was the best experience. Since we were so comfortable with him before, we decided to bring our kids, one has autism. The young man he had helping was amazing with him and kept the kids calm. We also invited friends and they have a 3 year old. They made sure she got to see “ Moana’s grandma” and put her on top of the float. I recommend this to all my friends and family. It’s a small boat so you get a little longer in the water and it isn’t crowder! Can wait for the next time we come! When I get the photos downloaded I’ll add them to the review.Posted on Google J MacDonaldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wow! The night manta snorkeling trip was a highlight for our whole family. If you're wondering if you should do this---yes, go for it! And definitely go with Aloha Ocean Excursions. Captain Kris and his crew were so great! The small group manta ray tour was a perfect addition to our Kona, Hawaii vacation.Posted on Google D lindahlTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kris and Ryan put on a great Manta tour. We went out between other charters 1st and 2nd tours. We got to see a lot because there were fewer boats. We had a lot of action and would highly recommend. Super nice and professional. Paid a little extra and he texted over some GoPro footage. Highly recommend!Posted on Google B LoyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolute first class experience. I’ve done multiple manta ray snorkels and this was by far the best. You get VIP treatment. Kris and Ryan were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. While other tours seem to rush you in and out, their operations are designed for the ultimate experience. You get a view of the sunset on the ride out and the setup is strategic to attract the manta rays. It works because we saw 18. Absolutely will use them again.Posted on Google M DanielsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing manta ray trip with Kris and crew! Small group size made it more personal and they definitely know what they’re doing and how to make you feel comfortable during the processPosted on Google J SlackHiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kris is the beatPosted on Google S VidinhaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing time with Chris and Buddha! There isn't a manta Ray tour better than these guys. They do 1 tour a night so they are not clock watching and trying to hustle you around to get you off the boat to make money on the next group. They give you a lot of info on Manta Rays and are very knowledgeable. If you're on the Big Island and want to swim with mantas, book with these guys. Buddha is the Manta Ray whisperer!
