I visited Maui for the first time and decided to choose the Trilogy tour to visit Lanai, which only has luxurious resorts and can only be accessed through excursions. I stayed near Lahaina on Maui Island partly because it made it easier to participate in this tour. The price was a bit steep, but the boat's facilities were good, and the timing for snacks and fruit drinks was great! The staff was very friendly and professional! During the cruise, we even encountered a pod of dolphins, which was very exciting on board.
The reconfirmation, gathering, and everything on the boat was in English, but since we were the only Asians on that trip, they were quite attentive to us. The private beach on Lanai had a good state of coral preservation, and snorkeling from the beach was quite good. I read experiences from previous visitors and asked beforehand to be notified so I wouldn't miss anything. The island tour included explanations about Lanai's industries and historical sites, which were well done (it was in English, so I couldn't catch all the details, but with a guidebook or smartphone, it was manageable). At the end, there was applause in the vehicle. The local town felt like something out of a Western, and it was at an elevation just slightly lower than Takao Mountain in Tokyo, making it feel like a small highland. Enjoying both the highland and the beach was a double treat.
When we returned from the town visit, we had an early dinner? Or a late lunch? It felt like a 3 PM dinner, and the BBQ only had chicken, which made me think it didn't quite match the tour price, but considering it as a late lunch, I was fully satisfied! Notably, the sunset during the return cruise was spectacular! The town of Lahaina bathed in the sunset, along with Iao Valley and Haleakalā Mountain, created the most gorgeous sunset.
初めてマウイ島を訪れ、、豪華リゾートしか無いラナイ島は、エクスカーションで行くしかないなと、トリロジーのツアーを選択しました。今回マウイ島ステイを、ラハイナ近くにしましたのも、このツアーに参加しやすいからという理由もありました。お値段はちょっと張りましたが、船の設備は良いし、軽食やフルーツ飲み物のタイミングもGood!スッタフは、とてもフレンドリーで、プロフェッショナル!!行のクルーズでは、イルカの群れにも会え船内大興奮。
リコンファームも集合も船内も全部英語だったけど、私たちの参加した回は、東洋人らしき人は私たちだけだったので、かなり気を付けていてくれました。
ラナイ島のプライベート感覚のビーチで、サンゴの保存状態も良く、ビーチからのシュノーケリングとしてはかなり良かったです。前の方の体験談を読んで、聞き逃すといけないので事前に声をかけるよう頼んでおきました。島内観光は、ラナイ島の産業や歴史名所など、説明もばっちりで(英語なので、細かいところは聞き取れませんが、ガイドブックや、スマホがあれば、大丈夫)最後は車内で拍手が起きてました。ローカルな町は、西部劇に出てくるようで、標高が高尾山(東京の)よりちょっと低いくらいのところなので、ちょっとした高原です。高原とビーチ一粒で2度おいしい。タウンビジットから戻ると早めのデイナー?遅めの昼食?が3時デイナーと思うとBBQが、チキンだけだったので、ちょっとツアーの値段と見合わないかなとは思いましたが、遅めのランチと思えば充分満足!!特筆すべきは、帰りのクルーズのサンセット!!
夕焼けに染まるラハイナの町と、イアオ渓谷、ハレアカラ山最高のゴージャスサンセットでした。

I think this tour is quite affected by the weather. It was a day with heavy rain and strong winds, to the point where I wondered if such weather even occurs in Hawaii, but the tour went ahead. On the bus ride there, the intensity of the rain had everyone’s spirits low. Such days might be rare, but the water was cold, and the sandbar was submerged and not visible, making me feel like I wanted my money back. Additionally, the hamburgers being prepared on the boat were terrible for the price we paid.
このツアーは天気にかなり左右されると思います。ハワイでもこんな天気があるのかというぐらいに大雨で風の強い日でしたが、ツアーは決行されました。行きのバスの中はあまりの雨の強さに、参加者の皆さんのテンションも低めでした。こんな日は珍しいのかもしれませんが、水も冷たく、サンドバーも水の中に沈んで見えず、お金を返して欲しい気分になりました。またハンバーガーも船内で作っていてこの値段でこの食事?というぐらいに酷いものでした。

It was disappointing that we couldn't see the beautiful scenery due to the cloudy weather during the rainy season. However, we did see sea turtles!! After snorkeling, when we returned to the boat, it started to rain and it got cold, so it might be a good idea to have about two bath towels when the weather is bad. The guide was very cheerful, which was great.
雨季の為曇で良い景色というのがみられず残念。
でも、海亀はみれました!!
シュノーケルした後船に戻ったあと雨が降り出して寒くて凍えましたので、天気悪いときはバスタオル2枚くらいあった方がよいかも。

First of all, I was impressed by the transparent and beautiful blue sea. Lucky for us, just as we left the port, we discovered a pod of dolphins swimming with their dorsal fins out of the water. We even spotted some dolphins jumping. I was able to enter the water about four times, aiming for the route the dolphins were taking. The wetsuit keeps you afloat without any effort, but if you're feeling anxious, it's a good idea to use a floatation device. I think we borrowed floatation devices for about three people this time.
During the first time in the water, I wasn't quite used to the sea yet, so I was a bit slow to put my face in the water, and I barely managed to see the dolphins swimming far away. The second time, as soon as I got in the water and put my face down, I was able to see a mother and baby dolphin swimming slowly right below me. I could also hear their cute squeaking sounds. After that, I got more comfortable in the water and was able to enjoy the sunlight filtering through the water and the sight of many dolphins swimming around me.
At the end, Daisuke, who was driving the boat, insisted that he wanted to get in the water! He switched places with Jesse and jumped in, swimming like a dolphin. I couldn't help but wonder if Daisuke was actually a dolphin (laughs).
Jesse, who also provided transportation, didn't look Japanese at all, but he spoke Japanese very well, and I was able to hear a lot of stories beyond just dolphins, which made it really enjoyable. Thank you very much!
まず最初、透明で美しい青い海に感動しました。
ラッキーなことに港を出てすぐに、背びれを出して泳いでいるイルカの群れを発見しました。
そのうちジャンプするイルカも発見。
イルカが進行してくるルートをねらって、4回ほど海に入らせてもらえました。
ウェットスーツは何もしなくても浮くのですが、不安な人は遠慮なく浮き具をもらうといいです。
今回は3人ほど浮き具を貸してもらっていたと思います。
1回目はちょっとまだ海に慣れてなかったので、顔を水に付けるタイミングが遅れて、遠くに泳いでいるイルカをなんとか見れたという感じでした。
2回目は、海に入ってすぐ顔をつけると、真下をゆっくり泳いでいく親子のイルカを見られました。
キューキューというかわいい声も聞けました。
それ以降は水に慣れてきて、海中を差し込む太陽光とたくさんのイルカの泳ぐ姿を余裕をもって見ることができました。
最後は船を運転していたダイスケさんが、どうしても海に入りたい!と言って、ジェシーさんに運転をチェンジして、海に入るとイルカみたいに泳いでました。
ダイスケさんはイルカなのかな?と思ってしまいました(笑)
送迎もしてくださったジェシーさんは全く日本人には見えませんが、日本語が大変上手くてイルカ以外の話もたくさん聞くことができ、とても楽しかったです。
ありがとうございました!

I thought the guide would be Japanese since they spoke Japanese, but they were actually from an English-speaking country. Haha! Of course, their Japanese was excellent, so it wasn't a problem.
When floating on the surface of the water, it's truly moving to see the manta rays swimming right beside you!
However, while traveling it was fine, but the boat during our stay really made me feel seasick... I took motion sickness medication, but I was still in a pretty groggy state.
Also, the light snacks were basically chocolate bars, haha!
日本語を話せるガイドさんということで、てっきり日本人かと思っていたら、普通に英語圏の方でした。笑
勿論、日本語お上手だったので問題はありませんでした。
海面に浮かんでいると、マンタが本当に身体すれすれを泳いでいくので感動します!
ただ、移動中は大丈夫ですが、泊まっている間の船は本当に酔います……。酔い止め飲んで臨みましたが、普通にグロッキー状態でした。

I was very surprised that two large buses came to pick us up from the hotel (with pickups at two locations). This tour is really popular!
The boat staff were cheerful and kept the conversation lively, making it enjoyable. There were moments when it got a bit cloudy, which darkened the blue of the sea, but overall, we enjoyed truly wonderful scenery under mostly clear skies. The water was about waist-deep, so next time I want to go when the sandbar is fully exposed.
We were served sandwiches with ham and cheese as a light snack, which satisfied our empty stomachs. It was also nice to have warm tea, which was appreciated after getting chilly from the sea.
On the way back, there was a small incident where the number of people didn't match, causing a delay in departure. I think it would be better to manage the buses carefully with a roster when there are multiple buses. With so many people, there are various individuals involved. Honestly, I was a bit anxious since I had another schedule to keep.

ホテルに迎えに来たのが大型バス二台(ホテル二カ所でピックアップ)ということに大変驚きました。
本当に人気のあるツアーなんですね。
ボートのスタッフのみなさん陽気で、トークも軽快に楽しませてくれました。
時折曇ったりすると、海の青が少し暗くなり残念な時もありましたが、概ね晴天で本当に素晴らしい景観を楽しみました。
海水が腰の位置くらいまであったので、次に行く時は完全にサンドバーが出る時期を狙って行きたいと思いました。
ハムとチーズの入ったサンドイッチが軽食として出され、空いた小腹を満たしてくれました。
温かい紅茶もいただけて、海で冷えた体にありがたかったです。
帰りのバス、なぜか人数が合わずしばらく出発できないという小事件がありましたので、バスが複数台になるときには、乗せたバスを名簿でしっかり管理された方が良いのではないでしょうか。あれだけの人数、いろんな方々がいらっしゃいますから。
正直、次の予定が入っていたので内心気が気ではありませんでした。

This time, I participated in a sandbar tour. On the way to Kaneohe Bay, the bus broke down on the highway, and we had to wait quite a while for another bus to arrive. I understand that such mishaps can happen, but there was no apology offered, and eventually, the guide's expression and attitude clearly showed that they were in a bad mood. It was truly unacceptable.
What surprised me was that they only smiled when talking about tips and then offered an apology. I was just left speechless. I have participated in various tours before, but this was the first time I experienced such behavior and attitude. It was disappointing, especially since it was a wonderful tour.
今回、サンドバーのツアーに参加しました。カネオヘ湾へ向かっている途中、ハイウェイでバスが故障し、べつのバスが来るまでにかなり待ちました。このようなハプニングはあってもしかたがない事とは思いますが、申し訳ないと言う謝罪もなく、しまいにはあからさまに機嫌が悪くなっている表情と態度。本当に有り得ませんでした。
そして、びっくりしたのがチップの話をする時だけ笑顔になり、謝罪をした事です。
ただ呆れるばかりでしたね。
今までも色々なツアーに参加していますが、このような対応や態度をされたのは初めてです。
せっかくの素敵なツアーなのに、残念でした。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour.
However, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the bus breakdown. We are also truly sorry for the additional discomfort caused by our staff's response.
Upon checking with the local operating company about the situation on the day of the tour, we learned that there was an issue with the bus engine, which required us to stop the bus midway and transfer you to a different bus. You had to wait for about 25 minutes for the other bus, and we adjusted the tour time accordingly. We deeply regret the inconvenience caused during your much-anticipated trip, and we apologize for the insufficient explanation and apology.
We take your feedback seriously and, together with the operating company, will strive to improve our services in the future.
Thank you very much for your valuable feedback despite your busy schedule.

It was clear and sunny from the morning, to the point where I was worried about getting sunburned, and we set sail in the afternoon. There were only my sister and me as the two Asians among the Japanese passengers, but the hospitality from the captain and crew was good!! However, as we approached the Na Pali Coast, the weather started to look ominous, almost like a roller coaster... Perhaps because of the weather, we were treated to a clear rainbow rising from the water. And it was a double rainbow, which was breathtaking!! Since the weather can change suddenly, I recommend bringing motion sickness medication and a windbreaker.
朝から快晴で、日焼けが心配なぐらいの中、午後からの出航でした。日本人は、いえアジア人は私と妹の二人だけでしたが、キャプテン以下クルーの方たちのおもてなしはgood!!ところが、ナパリコーストに近づくにつれ雲行きが怪しくなり、まるでジェットコースターのような・・・。そんな中、そんなお天気だからこそでしょうか、水面からくっきりと虹が。しかもダブルレインボー、感激でした!!天候が急変することもあるようですので、酔い止め、ウィンドーブレイカ―のご用意をお勧めします。

We arrived at the yacht harbor in about an hour with the cheerful guidance of a local uncle on the shuttle bus. Since there were many participants, we split into two boats to head to the sandbar. It was just before noon, and the sandbar was shallower than I expected, with the water reaching about waist height. There, we were also able to practice for the upcoming snorkeling. The light snack of hamburgers was delicious. We spotted a sea turtle swimming in the distance, but we couldn't get a good look at it.
After that, we moved to snorkeling. There were many fish swimming near the coral reef. On the way back, it was cold. I recommend borrowing a bath towel from the hotel.

We are so grateful to know how much you enjoyed your time on the water and want to thank you for choosing us here at Holo Holo Charters! Mahalo and Aloha

On our second visit to the Big Island on October 17, we decided to challenge ourselves with manta watching. We were a bit anxious at the start since our beautiful driver couldn't speak Japanese, but it turned out to be lucky as we were the only two Japanese participants on the tour, allowing us to have the shuttle and our guide, Tori, all to ourselves. The boat ride to our destination off the coast of Kona was thrilling, comparable to a ride at an amusement park, and we all cheered while enjoying the fun journey, plus we got to admire a beautiful sunset. On the way back, we also enjoyed a starry sky, so we never had a dull moment during the trip. During the main event, it was an incredible day as manta rays continuously swirled beneath me with their mouths wide open, making me gasp in awe. I was amazed by how many times the mantas brushed against the bar I was holding onto, yet I felt no fear at all. I think this might be my last chance to visit the Big Island, but I had a truly moving experience and created wonderful memories. Thank you to all the staff.
10/17 2度目のビッグアイランド訪問でやり残していたマンタウォッチに夫婦でチャレンジしました。迎えの美人ドライバーが日本語しゃべれないのでちょっと不安なスタートでしたが、当日のツアーは日本人の参加者が私たち二人だけでしたので送迎車も日本人ガイドのトリさんも独占状態でラッキーでした。コナ空港沖の目的地までのボート移動もライド系アトラクション並の衝撃とスリルでみんなで歓声を上げながら楽しい移動を体験でき、おまけに綺麗な夕日が鑑賞できました。帰路も満天の星空鑑賞付でしたので移動も暇をもてあそぶことはありませんでした。本番も、大当たりの日で私の下をひっきりなしにマンタが大きな口を開けて旋回し続け、声にならないうめき声をあげつつけていました。つかまっているバーの手に何度もマンタが触れてくるという接近戦に感動しつつも恐怖心は全くありませんでした。ビッグアイランドに来れるのも最後かと思いますが最後に感動的な経験をできいい思い出ができました。スタッフのみなさんありがとう。
Aloha!!!
Thank you for participating in the tour!
I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it.
We would love for you to join us again when you come back to Hawaii!
Mahalo!
Aloha!!!
この度はツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました!
ツアーをお楽しみいただけたようで何よりです。
またハワイにお越しいただけた際は是非ご参加いただければと思います☆

I wanted to go snorkeling in the Angel's Sea, so I booked this tour. When it was time for the pickup, no one came to get me. I was told to call if they didn't arrive after 10 minutes, so I was thinking I should call soon when they finally showed up. It was a large bus, so maybe one reason for the delay was that it couldn't enter the pickup area? Once I got on the bus, it was filled with foreigners. Furthermore, the guide was speaking in English. I thought there would be a Japanese guide?? I felt quite anxious.
However, when it was time to board the boat, we were able to separate into a group of Japanese and another group. On the boat for the Japanese group, there was a Japanese guide, so I felt relieved. Our guide, YUKIKO, was funny, kind, and absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for taking so many pictures!
The sandbar was truly beautiful, like something out of a painting, with a stunning shallow sea spread out before us. I brought a float, but it might not have been necessary here since the water didn't even reach my chest at its deepest. After that, we went further out to snorkel. There were so many fish and the sea was beautiful. For lunch, we had hamburgers. There was also beer available for an extra charge on the boat.
Since it was a boat, the restroom situation was unfortunately what it was. But our guide, YUKIKO, made it enjoyable, and it was a very memorable and fun tour.
天使の海でシュノーケルがしたくて、このツアーを予約。
ピックアップの時間になってもお迎えが来ない。10分経っても来なかったら電話をとなっていたので、そろそろ電話してみないとと思っていたらやっと来た。大型バスだったので、ピックアップ場所に入ることができなかったのも遅れた原因の一つですかね? バスに乗ると外人ばかり。さらにはガイドさんも英語でしゃべってるぅ。日本語ガイドなはず?? かなりの不安感。
でも船に乗るときに、日本人のみとそれ以外に分かれて乗船でき、日本人のみの船には日本人のガイドさんもいたのでホッとしました。おもしろくてやさしくてサイコーなガイドのYUKIKOさん。たくさん写真撮ってくれてどうもありがとう。
サンドバーは本当絵のような写真のようなキレイな浅瀬の海が広がっていました。浮き輪持って行ったけど、ここでは必要なかったかも。深くても胸までいかないくらいだったから。その後もっと沖へ行って、シュノーケル。たっくさんのお魚とキレイな海。ランチにはハンバーガーもいただきました。船内ではビールも別料金ではありましたけど飲めました。
船なのでお手洗いが残念なのは仕方ない。。ガイドのYUKIKOさんが楽しませてくれて、とっても思い出に残る楽しいツアーでした。

The staff were very knowledgeable about the dolphins and spoke Japanese very well. They explained how to behave to see the dolphins better, and I was able to see many of them. Additionally, they frequently checked in with everyone to see if we were able to see the dolphins and if we were enjoying ourselves. Even for someone like me who isn't a strong swimmer, I felt safe and had a great time. I highly recommend it.
スタッフの方がイルカのことをよく知り、また日本語がとても上手で、どのように行動すればイルカがよく見れるか説明してくれ、たくさん見れました。
さらにイルカがみれたか、楽しんでいるか、皆にこまめに声をかけてくれ、泳ぎが苦手な私でも、安心して楽しめました。
おすすめです。

Before participating in the tour, I was a bit anxious after reading reviews that mentioned "not enough fish," but... the blue ocean, the abundance of fish, and above all, meeting a sea turtle instantly lifted my spirits!!! The ocean was truly beautiful, and even though it was my first time snorkeling, I was so excited as soon as I got in the water that I must have tensed up, resulting in muscle soreness the next day (laughs). The clarity of the water at Molokini left me speechless. It reminded me of the importance of cherishing nature.
There was an initial briefing about safety in the ocean, and we were advised not to get too close to the turtles. However, a sea turtle suddenly appeared right in front of me, and as I tried to keep my distance, it actually swam closer to me... I was amazed at how fast the turtle was swimming (≧▽≦).
The BBQ lunch was also fantastic, with stunning views and the beautiful blue of the ocean, making it feel like the best experience ever! After the BBQ, we moved to another location, but it got a bit chilly, and I hesitated to get back in the water. However, since I had the chance to see the turtle and swimming in such a beautiful ocean doesn't happen often, I dove in! Thanks to that, I was welcomed by many fish.
They mentioned that they changed the order of the stops based on the day's conditions, and it resulted in an amazing experience. I'm also grateful for Miho and the friendly staff's accommodating attitude (*^-^*). I mistakenly misunderstood the pickup location and ended up being late, but they quickly sent another vehicle, allowing me to participate without any issues. I was feeling anxious about being late, but thanks to Miho's presence, I was able to enjoy myself.
ツアーに参加する前に口コミにて「魚が少ない」などとあり、少し不安だったのですが・・・
海の青さ、たくさんのお魚、そしてなによりウミガメに会えて一気に気分は最高!!!
本当に本当にきれいな海で、初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが海に入ってすぐに興奮状態になり、変な力が入っていたのか翌日は筋肉痛に(笑)
モロキニの水の透明度は本当に言葉がなくなります。自然を大切にする気持ちを思い出させてくれました。最初に海での注意事項などの説明があり、カメにあまり近づきすぎないようにとのことでしたが、目の前に突然ウミガメが現れ、なるべく離れようとしたのですがカメの方から近づいてくるというか・・・カメの泳ぎの速さにビックリ(≧▽≦)
お昼のBBQもステキな景色と綺麗な海の青さで、なんだか最高でした!BBQのあと別の場所に移動したのですが若干冷えてしまい海に入ることを躊躇したのですが、せっかくカメにも会え、こんな海で泳ぐことはそう何回もあることではないのでダイブ!!おかげでたくさんのお魚さんに迎らえました。
当日の状況で回る順番を変えたとのことでしたが、おかげで最高の経験ができました。ミホさんやスタッフの方々の気さくな対応にも感謝です(*^-^*)
ピックアップの場所を勘違いして時間に遅れてしまったのですが、すぐに別の迎えを出してくれ無事に参加できました。遅れたこともあり不安を抱いていたのですがミホさんの存在のおかげで楽しむことができました。

Based on the experience information, I chose this tour and was very satisfied as well. The sense of security was different compared to when I participated in an English-only tour! I was able to focus on snorkeling. I also appreciated the availability of wetsuit rentals on the day.
体験談情報から、このツアーを選び、同じく大満足でした。
英語のみのツアーに参加した時と安心感が違います!シュノーケルに集中できました。
ウエットスーツの当日貸し対応もありがたかったです。
Dear Yashiko, thank you for participating in the Blue Hawaii Divers tour. We are really glad to hear that you enjoyed it!
Around late October, the water temperature at Hanauma has started to drop a bit. Recently, we have seen an increase in requests for wetsuits, so we are bringing a few extra suits for rental on the day. However, if you want to ensure you get one, please make a reservation in advance and let us know your height and weight so we can prepare the right size for you.
Wetsuits are highly recommended during the cold winter months! We all look forward to your repeat visit when you come back to Hawaii.
Thank you. Mahalo!!
やしこ様、この度はブルーハワイダイバースのツアーにご参加いただき、ありがとうございます。とても楽しんでいただけたようで、本当に良かったです!!
10月後半あたりからハナウマの水温もちょっと下がってきています。最近はウェットスーツのご希望が増えてきていますので、当日レンタルも出来るように少し多めにスーツを持って行っております。ですが、確実に借りたい場合には事前にご予約いただき、身長と体重を教えていただければ丁度良いサイズをご用意させていただきます。
冬の寒い時期にはウェットスーツはおすすめですよ!!
またハワイにお越しの際にはぜひリピートしていただけたらとスタッフ一同、楽しみにお待ちしています。
ありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

Thank you very much for participating in the tour. However, I sincerely apologize for not being able to provide the service that met your expectations.
On the day of the tour, the weather was poor, and it was very disappointing that you could not fully enjoy the experience due to the cold wind and water. While bad weather has an impact, please understand that the water level at the sandbar varies significantly between high and low tide, which may result in the beach being not visible.
Thank you for taking the time to provide your valuable feedback.
