Paddle On! Maui - Private Tours reviews
18Peg is extremely knowledgeable about the area and sea life and also cares tremendously about them. She made us feel comfortable the entire trip and took us to the best snorkeling areas. On top of it all, the pictures she took to capture our experience were incredible. Definitely would recommend booking with Paddle On Maui and we’re looking forward to doing it again the next time we’re here!
Absolutely magical experience. I saw three sea turtles up close. Our guide was supportive, clear, and the day went by too quickly. Loved it and would recommend to everyone.
Great kayak tour with Chris! Took my family if 4 including my 2 daughters who had never been out in the open water. He found sea turtles and helped us explore in the water. Amazing private tour!
We loved our time with Brittany and Sara! They were both patient, encouraging, and full of experience that made us feel safe!
My 10yo daughter and I went out on paddle boards with Marie and had a wonderful time. She was patient with my daughter’s nerves about the ocean and made sure both of us had a splendid time. We were lucky the winds calmed down and we were able to go. We paddled to snorkeling spot and saw lots of fish, got to touch a red pencil urchin and an octopus. Would definitely recommend this SUP tour to all. Marie also took pictures throughout the tour and edited them before sending later that evening.
Paddling with Peg was AMAZING for our our family of five. Most of us weren’t first timers but still learned a ton and her patience with teaching our 9yr old was priceless. The beach & snorkeling were beautiful and we saw turtles, red spinely sea urchins, angelfish, and all kinds of beautiful fish. The professional photos Peg took will be treasured forever too! Definitely add this to your itinerary!
Wow! Thank you so much! In 2 hours with Marie today I went from eager but worried to empowered and ready to rent a board tomorrow and go out on my own! Marie was patient and brought her skills as a yoga instructor to the task. This is a fantastic deal for 2 hours of private instruction. Look no further.
I had such a great experience. I loved it. It was one of the trip highlights. They know the ocean and all the local reefs. I would highly recommend.
We had a great time. Peg and Chris are awesome guides! We couldn't have asked for a better experience!
We booked a morning paddle board and snorkel with Brittany and Marie. We can't say enough about their service and care for our group. We were 3 adults, 1 teen and 4th grader. They took exceptional care of our nervous 4th grader. She sat on Marie's board and had no issues at all. They were able to get her into the water and snorkel along-side the board. Brittany took extra time with our teen to get her comfortable and standing up on the board.
Brittany also took AMAZING photos of our trip. We saw 2 turtles and she captured underwater pics of us with the beauty. We have awesome shots of everyone and group photos that will be on our Christmas cards this year. The first thing our teen said when we got back to shore was "Can we go again? "
We plan to book with Paddle On again if we're ever back in Maui, and especially with Brittany and Marie. Thank you ladies for a memorable trip!
Great experience as a beginner, I definitely had fun learning paddling boarding and saw some turtles! I was a little nervous at the beginning since I just had a boat-sickness a day before but it was great! I learned how to control the paddle and directions fairly quickly, then enjoyed paddling along the coast:)
The paddle board tour with Peg was the highlight of my trip! I'd been wanting to try SUP, and maybe SUP yoga, for a while; I'd seen the Paddle On! Website early in my week on Maui, but wasn't quite sure what I wanted. When I got in touch with Peg she was really flexible, set the date I wanted, and asked what kinds of things I wanted to do. It turned out my snorkel boat morning had been cancelled for rain so Peg suggested adding some snorkeling to our tour as well as the paddling lesson and a meditation on the water. We did so much! And so helpful on the mechanics - I started from never having tried it before and she talked me through basic standing and sitting and getting on and off, fixed my paddle technique and coached my balance. All of this with cheerful chat about how my trip had been so far and what else I could try around town before I left. So much personal touch, couldn't have been better!
In short I totally recommend Paddle On! Maui, pretty much no matter what you want Peg and team can accommodate - the same morning as me, there was a family with kids on a kayak tour and Chris snorkeling to find sealife to show them. So give them a call and they can figure out your perfect tour
I had a fantastic time on my SUP Cruise. Peg was really friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. I learned some more about the Maui area, had some lovely encounters with sea turtles, and a lot of fun. A highlight of my trip. I definitely recommend a tour with Paddle On! Maui.
Highlight of our Maui vacay! Since we had 2 kids with us (5 and 7 years) they provided 2 guides for our private session. We felt fully safe and taken care of, while my wife and I could really enjoy the paddle board and snorkeling. Our guides Peg (the owner) and Chris really allowed us to relax and soak in the moments. When my 5 year old got cranky, they made sure he got happy again (luckily had some snacks on the paddlebaord for him!) We were able to get some “National Geographic”-like shots with an octopus, starfish, and urchin, which btw the photo package is a MUST. The photo package also allows you to just enjoy, and let them be the ones to focus on the pics (which they also were amazing at). Just super impressed and happy with our experience and would def recommend them to our friends! Thanks so much Peg and Chris!
We used Paddle On service while at Maui and would 100% recommend their service. Peg was a very thoughtful guide. She gave us wonderful informations regarding the island and little science lessons on the sea animals. She made us feel welcomed and was so patience with us who are nervous first timer with a young child. Josh, her assistant, was so sweet while helping our 5 years old so we can be free to enjoy the experience. Peg help captured our families memories moments with her photography skills. I am thankful that I found her business to make this a memorial family trip.
Our family of five had the most amazing kayak tour! Chris and Pam were awesome tour guides and the kids had a blast looking at all the cool sea life! We saw four sea turtles, red pencil urchins, and an octopus. All around one of our favorite excursions we did while on Maui!
We had a great time with Chris, who gave us a fun guided tour as we paddleboarded and snorkled at Polo Beach. He pointed out sea life to ensure we got to experience all, and shared some local history to provide context for the other islands we could see. Additionally, he was able to take some great photos of our group to relive the memories.
Peg and Pam were amazing. Peg was so encouraging to our 11 year old daughter and taught her to paddle board with such patience. Pam was a wealth of knowledge and and wonderful with our son. We were in great hands and saw so many sea turtles! Such an incredible experience. Don’t pass on getting the pictures - totally worth it.
