This was a budget list adventure. The price was reasonable. Our tour guide was very friendly. Native Hawaiian owned and operated. We felt very safe the entire time. There were about 6 people on our boat and we all had plenty of time on the water. We saw around 15 Galapagos sharks. Definitely recommend!
