Best snorkeling with turtles experience
This was an amazing experience. We have done snorkeling with turtles off boats previously but this adventure was unique. We were brought to a cove where we swam out with appropriate equipment to get to the turtle cave. We saw 6 turtles! They were swimming close to us and even followed us back to shore! The coral and fish were also beautiful. Payson was a wonderful guide. He provided a thorough orientation. He is clearly knowledgeable about snorkeling, turtles, wildlife and Maui. He also brought us to two breathtaking beaches. We. including our daughter and grandchildren, were thrilled with this unforgettable experience. We don’t usually write reviews but want to acknowledge this 5 star+ adventure! Thanks, Payson!

One of the tour guides...
One of the tour guides called me the morning we were supposed to snorkel and cancelled our tour for the afternoon. He said the water was too rough and we would get a full refund. Totally understand the conditions were not favorable but I have never received a refund. It’s been a week now and no one will message me back. It cost me almost $300 for 4 people so very disappointing that I can’t get ahold of anyone.
Response from the operator: Aloha, thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We're sorry to hear about the delay in your refund. Whenever we have to cancel a tour due to us cancelling we always issue a refund in full, or attempt to reschedule. Your experience is not the level of service we wish to provide, I will be looking into this immediately and figuring out what the hold up on the refund is. Mahalo for your patience.

Very active
I’m giving this a 4 star because the walk to the van was longer than expected. I thought we would be traveling by van in an air conditioned vehicle.
Response from the operator: Mahalo for your feedback! I'm sorry the walk to the van was longer than you expected. Our transportation van is air-conditioned, and we meet guests at The Shops at Wailea before heading to the launch location. The day before the tour, your guide sends detailed meeting instructions, including the exact meeting spot and parking recommendations. If you happen to park on the opposite side of the shopping center, it can be a longer walk than anticipated. We appreciate you sharing your experience, and we'll continue looking for ways to make the meeting process as clear and convenient as possible. Mahalo for joining us!

Why this scores 75
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
South Maui Sightseeing & Turtle Town Snorkel: Turtle Guarantee: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Maui.
How much does South Maui Sightseeing & Turtle Town Snorkel: Turtle Guarantee cost?
+
Prices start at $69 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Maui usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does South Maui Sightseeing & Turtle Town Snorkel: Turtle Guarantee take?
+
Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Maui is not rushed.
Is South Maui Sightseeing & Turtle Town Snorkel: Turtle Guarantee worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 44 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Maui, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule South Maui Sightseeing & Turtle Town Snorkel: Turtle Guarantee?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is South Maui Sightseeing & Turtle Town Snorkel: Turtle Guarantee suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book South Maui Sightseeing & Turtle Town Snorkel: Turtle Guarantee?
+
Around 15 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Maui can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Maui and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does South Maui Sightseeing & Turtle Town Snorkel: Turtle Guarantee start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Maui within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Maui?
+
Maui's three signature days are the Hana road, the Haleakala summit sunrise and the Molokini snorkel sail, and all three are logistics problems as much as experiences. Sunrise summit entry is permit-controlled, Hana is a ten-hour driving day, and Molokini boats vary wildly in size. Our ranking rewards operators who handle permits and keep boat capacity low. On Outty we rank every Maui experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Molokini Crater + South Maui Coast Adventure from Kihei, Maui, Maui: VIP Private Road to Hana Tour with Pick Up, Road to Hana Adventure Maui Tour with Lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Maui?
+
April to May and September to October. Whale season runs December to April. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Maui?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
