The staff was very professional and quality of service, food and drink were excellent. The snorkeling was not good. We stopped to snorkel for 40 mins and there was poor reef if any and only a few small fish. The Nepali Coast scenery was excellent. A nice boat ride, as a snorkel trip it was a waste of time.

Wow! What a special, relaxing, adventure filled day! Thanks to Captain Kelly and the crew we were treated as charter guests on a 48 ft privately owned catamaran. This boat was smaller than some of the more commercial offerings. We had 40 passengers on board but it never felt crowded.
The crew was so accommodating. We were served breakfast, lunch and drinks. We felt very pampered which made us feel relaxed. The snorkeling was fun- we saw a turtle and six different types of fish. We got very close to two caves and could see well inside. We also saw some dolphins. The highlight of the day was when we were under sail- quiet, peaceful, wow!
The coastline and winds result in some intense waves and chop at one point. There’s not much to be done about this- geography is what it is….
We are a family of 4 with a 12 year old and 16 year old. We are experienced sailers. Our family had a great time. I would not recommend for younger children. It’s important to hold on at all times and to be able to sit still and enjoy the ride.

From the moment we walked in and checked in through the end, the trip was absolutely amazing! With most tours, the team makes or breaks the trip. Captain Kelly and her team Kevin and Luke were amazing from the time we threw lines to the very end. The hospitality was perfect. We saw dolphins within feet of the boat, sea turtles, and had a great time snorkeling and exploring the coast. Holo Holo are pure professionals and it shows. Do not hesitate to- book today with this amazing company!

Always a great trip to see the Na Pali coastline. Really enjoyed the crew with Holo Holo charters. They provided fun and historical commentary and had plenty of great food and drinks to satisfy my crowd of teens and preteens. We saw a school of 30+ dolphins which was amazing!

Wasn’t overly impressed with this tour. Tour scheduled for 7:30 and we were asked to arrive 10-15 min early. The captain showed up at 7:45. The boat was over crowded and not comfortable. Seating was limited and navigating around was tricky due the number of people. The crew was very friendly, but not very informative. I saw other tour companies with microphones, but the HoloHolo boat was not equipped with a speaker system. The minimal amount of information provided was very difficult to hear. The staff was relatively attentive, but not energetic. The tour was pretty boring. The scenery was stunning, but not a lively tour. The snorkeling location was not great… very little to see.
Overall, I was underwhelmed. I’ve done many excursions like this, and sadly this one was not really informative or fun.

Just average. Scenery is outstanding, but the tour is pretty boring. Takes an hour plus to get to snorkeling, which is subpar (not like Caribbean reefs) and there is no energy on the boat. The crew is nice, but it’s not that informative and they do nothing no to create a fun atmosphere.
The coast line is stunning, but after 20 min, you realize it’s another hour plus of boredom to get back to port.
Done many excursions and this captain and crew need to go on some other boats to learn how to liven things up and provide more info throughout the tour (not just a few lines about the area here and there). Bummed to have to write this, but wanted others to be forewarned and choose better

First of all the crew of Jess, Kevin and Coral were great. Second the scenery was incomparable. We also lucked out with the weather. Best experience on Kauai

The Na Pali coast is amazing and the snorkelling was very cool. Crew was friendly and engaging. They took good care of me while in the water (keeping me away from getting to close to the reef) and on board when the return trip was choppy.

Captain Kelly and her crew of Gabe and Coral really made this a great experience. They were thorough, friendly, and approachable during all of the required safety procedure talk. They got us out onto the water as quickly as they could and a great job getting breakfast out in a timely manner. After reaching the Na Pali Coast after about an hour on the water, Captain Kelly found a pod of dolphins and a great area to snorkel with a sea turtle. After snorkeling, we went north and saw some amazing features as Gabe and Coral gave a thorough description of what we were seeing. Lunch was served timely and adult beverages were served.
Ultimately, every single little thing that was advertised was delivered. I suppose we were lucky with a great day for weather as that can impact whether or not the boat even goes out, but I want to highlight how well the crew really made this an experience to remember. Experiences can be hit-or-miss on what they actually deliver, but Holo Holo did an amazing job meeting those expectations and their fantastic crew helped bolster the experience to exceed them. Thank you so much for an amazing time!

Beautiful trip along the Na’pali coast. The views were outstanding. Saw pods of Spinner Dolphins and snorkelled with the Green Sea Turtles. Just wish I could have heard the commentary from the guides a little better.
