I had a very quiet and luxurious time that you can't experience on other islands... ☆
The cruise to Lanai offered a breathtaking view of the sunrise in the middle of the ocean.
It was truly a stunning sight, and it was worth it just for that!
The cinnamon roll served for breakfast was also exquisite!!!
I was anxious because I couldn't speak any English, but I enjoyed myself even though all the staff and customers were foreigners.
他の島では味わえない、とても静かで贅沢な時間を過ごしました。。。☆
ラナイ島へのクルージングは海の真ん中で日の出を楽しめる絶景。
まさに息をのむ光景で、これだけでも価値があります!
朝食に出てきたシナモンロールも絶品!!!
英語は全く話せず不安でしたがスタッフの方、お客様は全員外国人の方でしたが楽しめました。

This was an OK way to see Pearl Harbor from Maui. We were greeted by someone when we arrived at the airport but when we arrived in Oahu, we couldn't find anyone. Eventually after 20+min, someone did arrive. The bus driver was OK. We arrived at Pearl Harbor and he was helpful showing us how to get around and provided some helpful trips. Unfortunately, we weren't able to get out to the USS Arizona - the launches were postponed due to winds. We missed it by 1 tour - 30 min. I know this was not necessarily the fault of the tour guide but we did spend time standing around. We could have made an earlier tour. Disappointing. Anyway, all in all this was a good to OK experience.

I booked a tour for my first visit to Lanai Island. I was quite anxious since it mentioned an English guide, but our guide, Bruce, was very friendly and explained the history and geography of Lanai Island in easy-to-understand English.
He took us to many beautiful viewpoints, and I was very satisfied. Since it was my first time, exploring Lanai Island on my own would have been very challenging, so I think it was a great tour.
初のラナイ島観光ということでツアーを頼みました。英語ガイドと書いてあったのでとても不安でしたが、ガイドのブルースはとてもフレンドリーでわかりやすい英語でラナイ島の歴史や地理などを教えてくれました。
とてもきれいなビューポイントもたくさん連れて行ってもらい大満足でした。
初めてでラナイ島を自分だけで回るのはとても大変なので、とてもよいツアーだと思いました。

I can't swim and was going for my wife. Thank god I went through with it. Off the back the tour was very well organized. 4 crew members including the captain and everyone knew their jobs well and communicated well with us. Very helpful. Very nice breakfast and catamaran sail to lanai island to start with. We saw whales while going to lanai! near lanai we saw a big pod of dolphins. Both times the captain was knowledgeable about steering the boat and showing us the best views. The Dolphins came very close to our boat too! (See attached picture)when we got to the snorkel site- the crew was very empathetic to my lack of swimming skills. They helped me very gently through the entire thing and encouraged me to go into the waters with floats etc. and I'm so glad they did. We snorkeled for an hour at lanai and I had so much fun. After that we sailed back to Lahaina beach while the crew made burgers and we snorkeled at the Lahaina harbor and then ate food. All in all 5 stars to the crew for being on top of everything and at the same time being jovial about it. Definitely recommend taking this day excursion for the views of Maui island and great snorkeling sites. I saw turtles at both sites- and I don't even know how to swim!!

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.

I participated in this tour because I wanted to experience the great outdoors! It exceeded the description in the tour details, and I was truly satisfied with the many breathtaking views I enjoyed. The pickup and the explanations at the airport were all provided in Japanese, which made me feel at ease. The guide was a Japanese woman (or possibly of Japanese descent) who has lived in the area for a long time. She was very interesting and kind, sharing many stories unique to the locals. The driver sang with a ukulele during our break, creating wonderful memories!

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. He proceeded to drive us around the island and we never did get the jeep. Not sure what happened. I asked twice if this was the correct tour and told yes it was. Bruce's was awesomeness but it was not the tour we signed up for.

I visited Kauai after going to Maui and Hawaii Island. My main purpose was to see Waimea Canyon. I participated in a tour thinking I could experience the same excitement I felt when I visited the Grand Canyon last September. It was unfortunate that I couldn't go to the Na Pali Coast due to time constraints. It was nice to leisurely explore Kauai by bus. Waimea Canyon was very beautiful and clearly visible since the weather was nice. The guide, an energetic lady who didn't seem to show her age, talked non-stop throughout the day, which I found impressive. I learned for the first time that there is Blue Mountain Coffee in Kauai, and I bought some immediately. The sample I tried was very delicious, so I'm looking forward to drinking it in Japan.
マウイ島、ハワイ島は行ったのでカウアイ島へ観光に行ってきました。一番の目的はワイメア渓谷を見る事。去年9月にグランドキャニオンへ行ったので、あの感激を味わえるかと思ってツアーに参加した。ナ・パリ・コーストは時間が無いので行く事は出来ないのが残念であった。のんびりカウアイ島をバスで巡る事が出来良かった。ワイメア渓谷は晴れて良く見えたので大変良かった。ガイドのおばさまは年を感じさせない元気な方で、1日中喋りまくっていたのは感心した。カウアイ島にブルーマウンテンコーヒーがあるのを始めて知り、即、買った。試飲したのは大変美味しかったので、日本で飲むのが楽しみである。

I visited Lanai Island for the first time. I went without any prior research, but the guide, who spoke only English, chose very easy-to-understand words to explain, allowing me to learn about the history and present of Lanai Island. I encourage you to challenge yourself with English conversation practice. Bruce will respond politely, even if he looks a bit troubled.

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.

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.
