This tour was the best thing I’ve done while visiting Kenya the staff where so friendly and helpful the snorkelling and scuba diving were great followed by the food at a restaurant on Wasini island and then a tour of the village and to finish it off after getting back to the mainland you have a tour of the Shimoni slave caves. This tour is a must do the experience you get with the great staff for a very reasonable price you can’t do better then this.
I would like to Thank
Ismail the driver/guide
boat captain Mohamed
snorkeling guide called moi
For making this a unforgettable experience

We were 8 swedish students Who joined the boat trip with snorkling to kisite water park. It was an amazing experience and our guides were so helpful and wanted us to have the best expreince. The guide Isamael was really freindly and he documented our snorkling under water with his camera and we received the pictures afterwards. I would totally recomend this and all of us 8 students were really happy. We havent been with another boat trip but We can recomend these guys!

It was a beautiful day. Our Driver and Guide, Ismael, told us a lot about Kenya and is in generell a very nice guy! When we were in the boat to kisite national park, you normally get to see dolphins or even whales. At first they unfortunately didn't show up, but Ismael and de Driver of the boat didn't gave up and did everything to see them. And it really payed off, because in the end, we even could swim with the dolphins in the open water!! Such an amazing experience! Also the rest of the day was very interesting and we can only recommend to book this tour!!

This was not our favorite snorkeling experience. To start, it was not clear to me that the driver was not the guide, but only a taxi basically - he picked us up and took us to and from the marine park. He did ride with us on the boat, but was not very friendly. We went out on a rainy day and the water was very rough, so I won’t count that against the company. Our guide also swam way too much/fast. Snorkeling is supposed to be leisurely. The equipment also left a lot of be desired. The life jackets were old and zips didn’t work. The fins were fine but the snorkel and mask were yucky (moldy and looked like it had never been cleaned). They need to be thrown out and replaced.
Lunch was yummy. The captain and guide on the boat were nice. But for them, I would have rated this lower.
