Without a doubt, the best snorkel trip from Maui! Only 3 boats travel around Lanai for snorkel excursions, so you have an opportunity to see places and snorkel in spots that few tourists ever see. The crew is friendly, attentive and will make sure that you are having fun, eating/drinking, and that your gear is working properly. The captain, quite... more

We had an absolute blast on this trip - the crew and captain are the BEST at what they do. Be sure to bring a six-pack of beer, otherwise you'll be jealous of others cracking open a cold one! They provide food and it's more than adequate - this isn't a trip about food - it's about exploring the island... more

My husband and I had an excellent time on Safari Boat Excursions. Captain Dave and his crew were fun and professional. Our trip started early at 6:30 am. The ride on the boat is fast and rocky but fun. Take any anti-motion medication before you get on the boat. We did and were fine. Only one person on the boat... more

My family of 5 just returned from 9 days in Maui and we all agree that our trip with Captain Dave and crew was the best experience we had during our vacation. The good things: pertect sea conditions and weather; Becky and Eric were so great with our kids and willing to share their knowledge; unlimited drinks and snacks; hilarious... more

We knew this activity was going to be the highlight of our vacation from the moment we contacted Pua at Safari Boat Excursions before our vacation to Maui last week. Pua was outstanding at setting expectations for the trip and Captain Dave and Eric fulfilled every expectation by making the trip beyond compare. The entire staff and crew were meticulously... more

Wow! Kudos to Capt. Dave on his apt and eloquent response to the "Safety First" post on this site. I myself even felt compelled to respond. First and foremost, I personally know this crew and I know that they are all well versed in safety, have vast insight on marine life and an uncanny ability to convey the history of... more

I had been planning my trip to Hawaii for 30 years, I had the most fun, snorkel time and the best memories to take home of my day with Safari Boat Adventures. Truly a snorkel trip not to miss. more

My first trip to Hawaii & I booked the Safari Excursion due to the great reviews on Tripadvisor. I am an avid fan of Tripadvisor but rarely post comments. However, I felt COMPELLED to post a review regarding my experience with this group. While the weather was uncooperative (very windy w/ big swells) & snorkeling was not possible, it was... more

I booked with this company strictly because of the tripadvisor reviews. I was truly excited to go on this trip and I was completely stoked becuase they had an opening for when we would be in Maui. I can agree with most of what the other travelers have said but i have a major objection to some of the aspects... more

Management response from

Thank you for taking the time to go out on our trip and write a review for tripadvisor.com. We read every review and take the comments to heart. I want to reassure you that safety does come first in our company. I wish I could control the sea conditions and visibility of every snorkel site, but since things like currents...

I was so happy to have booked with Safari Boat Excursions considering how much competition is out there. The captain, along with the staff were simply awesome. We really bonded with them, as well as the other passengers on the boat. The boat itself was comfortable and not jam packed. There were always extra seats and places to stand. The... more
