The phone support is surprisingly bad. 電話の対応がとてもびっくりするほど悪い

Reviewed by: mii

I live overseas, so I'm used to customer service here, but even so, I was shocked by how rude the attitude was when I made a confirmation call. It wasn't due to poor reception; the call was disconnected several times, and the attitude was extremely bad, which made me very anxious before participating in the tour.

However, when I actually joined the tour, the staff members were very nice. But to be honest, I'm not sure if it was worth the price.

When I asked some local friends in Maui, they told me it was too expensive and that there are better options available. I wish I had asked them before going.

Greedy travel! 欲張り旅行！

Reviewed by: みっちゃん

Since I'm going to Maui, I thought I'd be greedy and go all the way to Lanai! So I made a reservation.

When I went to the reception counter with my voucher, it was easy to board the boat. It was a beautiful ship, and I didn't notice any unusual smells (like heavy oil?). My friend was worried about seasickness and took some medicine, but it might not have been necessary. On the way back, they didn't take any and slept soundly.

We sat outside on the second floor. If the weather is nice, be careful of sunburn! We saw whales and dolphins, and the beautiful sea, sky, clouds, and breeze felt wonderful. For lunch on Lanai, we had loco moco, saimin, and freshly baked bread at Blue Ginger—so delicious!

I recommend bringing a cooler bag with drinks and snacks and wearing your swimsuit for a fabulous day on the island!

せっかくマウイに行くのだから欲張ってラナイまでGOでしょ～

We arrived on Lanai. We were usher to a suburban and driven to Lanai City. We assumed we would get the jeep that we would be able to drive. We were looking forward to the excitement of driving on the rugged roads. When when got to Lanai city we were met by Bruce's in another Suburban.

It was great flying from Kapalua airport as we were staying in Ka'anapali. Plus the flight over to Oahu on the small plane was wonderful. We had fantastic aerial views, saw some whales and a beautiful rainbow and our approach in Honolulu took us directly over Diamond Head. We did the whole tour - the Arizona, the Missouri, the Bowfin and the museum, so we felt a little rushed to see it all. Otherwise, it was a wonderful day!

It was the season for whale watching, so we encountered many. Advice for participants: confirm your reservation by phone, communication is only in English during the tour, and there is a 'roll call' both going and returning for peace of mind. You can also choose the amount of food and drinks yourself, which is reassuring.

Maui to Lanai Snorkel Cruise with Breakfast & Lunch from Lahaina

Best Experience Ever!

Reviewed by: Brian

This was our first time going to Maui with the family and we wanted to choose the activities that would leave a great impact on all of us. And boy did we do the right choice. Doing this activity was the best experience ever! The staff was very friendly and informed us regarding safety issues, then we had our continental breakfast. On our way to the first snorkeling spot we had the chance to see some whales and that was a plus. Once we arrived to the right spot we snorkeled for about 45-55 minutes where we all had a chance to see a baby turtle swimming among us (super cute by the way). After that we continued to our second snorkeling place and it was there where we encountered more turtles and fishes. Being able to see the ocean life from a different perspective is amazing. Once we concluded our snorkeling we went back to the boat and had some delicious burgers and hotdogs BBQed for us by the staff. It was just amazing! I encourage you to do the Maui to Lanai - Dolphin Watch & Snorkel BBQ Lunch Cruise.

It was my first time snorkeling and I Totally Loved It!!! Before I booked the activity I was concern because I don't know how to swim but the staff was so friendly and they guided me through the process, which made it super easy and fun for me. They have all the equipment on board and I was able to use a belt that allowed me to float. It was an amazing experience where I was able to watch some whales, turtles and many more marine life. If you are planning a trip to Hawaii snorkeling is a MUST, believe me, you won't be disappointed. But please be aware that if you get sea sick, do yourself a favor and eat one of the bars they sell at the booth before boarding the boat. That way you will ensure to enjoy the whole experience. ALOHA & MAHALO to the crew that was amazing! I WOULD DEFINITELY DO THIS ACTIVITY WITH THEM AGAIN!!!

Don't Sail on Gusty Days

Reviewed by: N2W3

I joined this tour mainly to snorkel, as I haven't done so for quite a well.

Too bad, though, that the winds were extremely gusty and waves very, very rough. I wish our captain, based on his experience, could have made the decision to bypass Lanai at the outset and gone straight to some friendlier waters such as Molokini, so that we didn't have to suffer through two+ hours of shuffling back and forth between Maui and Lanai.

On the positive side, I did enjoy the two snorkeling stops on the back side (Maui side) of the trip, especially watching my favorite Hawaiian green sea turtles.

BTW: happy hour pretty cool too.

Lanai Dolphin/Snorkel Trip

Reviewed by: Maui Honu

We picked a day with high winds, unfortunately, so most of the trip was very rocky and choppy, causing me and several other guest to throw up. But the crew was super nice and professional in helping us cope with such otherwise very uncomfortable experience.

Due the high winds, we weren't able to snorkel around Lanai because the waters were very murky. Fortunately, it got better when we got back to Maui side. Everyone ended up having a good time snorkeling after all.

My main goal was actually to see dolphins. Too bad we couldn't find any. They saw some whales, but not me, because that's when I was throwing up.

Food was not bad. Like the captain too.

Great time

Reviewed by: Shannon

We made our reservation by phone and had no problems finding a date and time. Customer service over the phone was great.
When we checked in at the dock, the lady check us in was very nice. They have you check in an hour prior to departure, which is a long time to hang out on the dock. There was no where to hang out or sit while waiting.
The crew on the boat was very nice and the food was decent. Due to the weather we were not able to go to the original destination, but the crew found a couple of spots for us to snorkel. We didn't see any Dolphins or turtles, just a few fish. We saw a whale from a distance, but we didn't hang out long enough in the same spot to see if the whales would resurface.
In all, the boat ride was much longer than expected. Most of the time was spent on the boat going to a snorkeling spot right next to the shoreline.

I purchased a round-trip ticket and, after arriving on the island, took a shuttle bus to the town center for some exploration and lunch. After that, I got off at Flobob Beach near the port on the return bus, enjoyed the beach, and walked about five minutes to the port to catch the ferry back. It can be quite inconvenient without a car, but I managed to enjoy the town and the beach. There isn't much to see in the town, but the beach is beautiful and nice.

You can make a reservation online in advance, and just show the voucher issued at that time at the dock! Once you receive your ticket and board the boat, you can sit wherever you like. They will come around to check tickets after departure! They were also very accommodating with time changes.

The quiet beaches of Lanai! There were plenty of fish! With many birds around, the lush Lanai City has a warm atmosphere. There was a little mishap where I couldn't find the shuttle bus stop for the return trip and missed it, but another bus driver, knowing the situation, kindly gave me a free ride to Manele Harbor.

Please make sure to visit the aloha-filled island of Lanai!

The flowers of nature. Untouched East Maui. 大自然のハナ。手付かずの東マウイ

Reviewed by: はにー

It was a truly wonderful place. The untouched nature was incredible. The road to HANA was winding and very narrow, especially when encountering oncoming cars. However, the views from the car along the way were absolutely breathtaking.

In the tour, we were the only Japanese participants. Honestly, I understood only about half of the English, but I managed (laughs). Moreover, during the East Maui tour, we didn't encounter any other Japanese people at all. It's a completely different experience compared to Honolulu, even though it's the same Hawaii. The banana bread we bought along the way was warm and delicious too. However, I was surprised that we passed right by Hasegawa General Store. I wanted to check it out a bit...

I highly recommend experiencing the untouched nature and power of East Maui!

とても素晴らしい場所でした。
ホントに手付かずの大自然。HANAへの道は曲がりくねった道や、すれ違いの車がくるとちょー狭い道ばかり。
でも途中の車中から見える景色は絶景ばかり。

ツアー自体日本人は私たちのみ。英語のヒアリングは正直半分くらいしかわからなかったけど、なんとかなりました(笑)。しかも、東マウイツアー中、全く日本人に会いませんでした。同じハワイでもホノルルとは大違い。
途中寄って購入したバナナブレッドもホカホカで美味しかったし。
ただ、ハセガワ雑貨店は目の前をスルーだったのはビックリ。ちょっと見てみたかった。。

We already booked the snorkeling trip from our home in Austria and had no expectations at all what we will get as we were snorkeling-novices. On our first day on Maui we made a short trip from our hotel in Kihei to Lahaina to check where our trip will start the next morning. A very friendly lady at the port in Lahaina told us where our snorkeling trip will start and which boat will take us out.
The next morning an extremely friendly captain and his crew welcomed us on board and took us out to two awesome snorkeling spots. On our way we were served breakfast. At the snorkeling spots the crew was enormously helpful with the snorkeling equipment and to get into the water. During the snorkeling the crew members were out on surfboards two overlook the snorkelers. We felt extremely safe and fine.
On our way back we were served lunch with fresh fruits and beverages and nice things to eat.
We can highly recommend this company for booking a snorkeling trip. Unfortunately we did not see any dolphins or green turtles this day, but that is absolutely not the fault of the company.

Maui to Lanai Snorkel Cruise with Breakfast & Lunch from Lahaina

Cruise summary and assesment

Reviewed by: Lynda DeWard

On October 7th we joined the Dolphin watch Snorkel cruise to Lanai. It was quite breezy that day and upon boarding we were informed that because of the weather the cruise to Lanai had to be canceled and alternate snorkel locations would have to be used instead of the live coral reefs originally promised off the coast of Lanai, and further, the activities and relaxing time on Lanai would be out of the question. Although very disappointed we understood the situation and sympathized with the cruise captain. She was very nice and we felt sorry for her. We proceeded to her first chosen snorkel location off the coast of Maui, dropped anchor and began preparation for our first snorkel dip. The underwater scenery was somewhat less than spectacular but the experience was interesting. Not having snorkeled for several years it was an exhilarating experience to paddle in the ocean and explore the ocean floor. Subsequently, we pulled anchor and headed for another snorkel area off the shore of Maui and had our lunch, which was quite good and filling. When we arrived at the second site it was too windy to dive there and we were forced to find another alternative site. Again, interesting but even less spectacular than the first and really too windy to enjoy. Exhausted and chilled we finally headed back to Lahaina harbor for our cruise departure. Final assessment, the crew was very good and experienced, the captain was very good and well informed and handled the situation, much as it was, graciously and all in all we did enjoy ourselves on the cruise, but we didn’t even come close to what we were expecting for our investment.

Beautiful Reef Tour Off Maui!

Reviewed by: Brian Soushek

The VELTRA tour I took was the Maui to Lanai Dolphin and Snorkel cruise on October 7th, 2015. The tour was a great opportunity to see the island of Maui from the water and snorkel in beautiful unspoiled coral reefs. The staff on the tour were attentive and hospitable. The food was great and there was plenty of it. We did not get to our destination of Lanai due to poor weather conditions. In my opinion the boat captain made a wise choice in avoiding a possible dangerous trip across the waterway between Maui and Lanai. The captain did offer the option of rescheduling our trip in order to see the island of Lanai, but our group was leaving the next day so this was not something we could do. I would suggest that anyone taking this tour should schedule it at the beginning of their vacation so if there is inclement weather they can change the date and have the full experience. One other concern was that lunch was served between our snorkeling opportunities and on my second snorkel trip I had a full stomach. I don't suggest doing this. If lunch had been served after the second snorkel it would have been easier on me. Overall though, a great time had by my family!

Wonderful experience!!

Reviewed by: kshabanov

I booked this tour for my family [ages 3 & 6]... none of us had any snorkeling experience. We all had a great time learning about the islands, sea animals, and snorkeling. The locations were beautiful!! The crew was friendly and helpful--especially when I was trying to get the kids in and out of the boat [and when my son asked for more cookies!].
Once on the water, at least two crew members were floating around on surfboards teaching, offering advice, and helping us swim back to the boat if we were too tired.
It was a little scary to be afloat in the big ocean, but I felt more confident knowing that there were at least 3 people keeping eyes on the water at all times... we even saw 2 pods of dolphins!

A nice time with the family

Reviewed by: Julie

We recently went on the Maui to Lanai Dolphin watch and snorkel trip. Unfortunately not under the control of the crew but the weather was not great and winds were strong enough that we could not make the trip to Lanai. I would have rescheduled as they gave us that as an option but we left the next day so it was not possible. So instead the captain tried to make the best of it by taking us down the west coast of Maui. We stopped at the first snorkel spot and it was good- really far from the reefs so kind of difficult to see much. They gave us about an hour here and then we were supposed to move further south to the next location. When we arrived the weather had picked up so she turned around to head back. They finally settled on a location to let us snorkel again and the seas were rough- better snorkeling though once we got in. However they didn't leave us much time in the water and by the time we got out they said we were to close to the harbor to even have our free drink allowance so 3 people in our party missed out on that :( Bummer since they wouldn't serve it to us prior to snorkeling. Didn't get to see dolphins either (which is why my son wanted to take this trip) but I also know that is not guaranteed. Overall the crew made the best of a bad weather situation. Maybe next time.....

He made the tour much more interesting with his extensive knowledge of the island history, geography, plant and animal life, food, climate, etc. He also shared quite a bit science knowledge related to the volcanoes.

Maui to Lanai Snorkel Cruise with Breakfast & Lunch from Lahaina

Saw some dolphins, turtles, and fish, but not what we paid for

Reviewed by: honeymooners

My husband and I were looking forward to seeing lots of fish/dolphins and enjoying a barbecue lunch and cocktails. Our boarding passes didn't match the boat that we boarded, but we didn't think much of it. The boat started heading toward Lana'i, and the continental breakfast started (Costco muffins cut in half, fresh fruit, granola bars, and coffee or warm pineapple juice). Breakfast was good, but it quickly became EXTREMELY choppy. There was quite a south swell, so my husband and I didn't complain. When we arrived at Lana'i, we had to skip a snorkeling site due to rough water but were able to snorkel in a marine preserve bay. We saw a lot of fish and thought visibility was okay, but more experienced passengers thought that the visibility was awful.

We headed off to a Maui snorkeling site after an hour. On the way, we were treated to our "barbecue" lunch: cold-cut sandwiches, chips, and soda or water. We had all been looking forward to barbecue and almost every adult had been talking about the cocktails they were going to order. Compared to what we paid for, lunch was a real disappointment. But it was about to get worse; the water became even rougher, and passengers started vomiting everywhere - out the cabin windows and all over the floor right where everyone was eating. We did end up seeing dolphins, though.

The second snorkel site had pretty bad visibility, but we did see a few turtles! After an hour, we got back on the boat and headed back to the harbor.

We talked to a couple of locals (one an activity concierge) on the boat, and they said this trip is usually one of the best ones out there. But frankly, if you pay for barbecue and cocktails, you should be getting that (or something comparable with an explanation/apology). This did not happen on our trip. The locals said that the original boat would not have been as rough, as it was much bigger, too. We don't usually complain, but we wish we had gotten a bit of a refund. At least the crew was nice.

We were taken to rough waters to snorkel first then we were taken to a very calm beach with an old dock were we spotted a big turtle that when below most of us snorkeling.
