Hawaii
Ferry ride was nice, fun at times with the waves. Beautiful view. Beaches in Lanai gorgeous. Good service. Not much to do in Lanai City. Most of the Restaurants there, which are not too many, close really early. We were lucky to be able to have a late lunch at one of them, cant recall the name, and the food was delicious.
I am very grateful to my guide, Mr. Abe. Thanks to him, I was able to enjoy Kauai Island at a leisurely pace. His storytelling was also very relaxed, making the journey feel effortless. Although he had already retired once and was working again, it felt like his experience really made a difference.
I could clearly see the impact of the two major hurricanes that hit Kauai, with damaged buildings and free-roaming birds still evident today.
The fern cave wasn't very impressive, but the mini Grand Canyon was lovely.
私は阿部さんというガイドさんにとても感謝しています。
時間をゆったり作って回っていただいたので、カウアイ島を堪能できました。
お話もとってもゆったりしていらして、つかれることのない道中でした。
すでに一度は退職されており、再雇用でのお仕事とのことでしたが、そんな経験が物をいうという感じでした。
カウアイ島が2回も大きなハリケーンに見舞われ、大きな被害があったことは今も残る壊れたままの建造物や放し飼いになった鳥などでよくわかりました。
シダの洞窟はあんまり印象的ではありませんでしたが、ミニグランドキャニオンは素敵でした。
A wonderful trip brilliantly organised. Gives ample opportunity to view the beautiful island of Maui. As we have always found with all the trips, the tour guide is superb, giving us plenty of information about the island and providing lots of stops so that we can enjoy the beauty of our surroundings. A long day but well worth it.
This was a great tour, but a lot of driving. Our driver, Juan ( might be misspelled) is a native hawaiian and shared a lot of fact and fable. He played a video about how Jurasic Park was made, and as we drove around you can see where parts of the movie were filmed. We had plenty of time at each stop. I thought the fern grotto was a bit lame. The ferns were destroyed in a hurricane years ago, so the ones that were there were small. It wasnt what I expected. And there were mosquitos at the grotto. It would be nice if the driver had bug spray or something. We came back with a lot of bites. The boat ride was frustrating. It is a wide boat, with a low roof. The guide kept talking about the mountains or things on top of the hills, and most of us couldnt see what he was referring to because of the low roof. On one hand, seeing the island through a tour is a great way to learn a lot about the island. On the other hand, renting a car allows you to stop where you want to (little s
There is a lot of traveling back and forth then actual viewing spots, and because of that there was not enough time at Waimea Canyon which is the main spot of the trip. People taking half day tour should not be mixed with fullday tour, there was a lot of time lost in going back and forth droping those people, and the return flight to oahu should be planned accordingly we had to wait 2 hrs at the airport.
We were really looking forward to going to Pearl Harbor, I booked a Tour as I felt that would be the best for us as we were staying in Maui. Well by the time we picked everyone up and then got to Pearl Harbor we realized another group on the tour had to be at the airport at 4:00 so it was not a lot of time. I felt to much time was spent on the Bowfin (which we really did not care to much about) and not enough time for the rest of Pearl Harbor. We only had a few minutes really on the MO and not enough time to see Hanger 79 and other things on the Island. For what we paid to do this tour it really was a big disappointment. Wish we would have just flown over and did the tour ourselves. But our guide whom we called Auntie Em was excellent!!!
This was my second time on Kauai, and I had a great time!
Traveling with a small group of six made everything run smoothly.
The guide was entertaining, and the scenery was magnificent—an excellent tour!
カウアイ島へは2度目でしたが、とても楽しめました!
6人の少人数で回れたのでスムーズに動けました。
ガイドさんも面白くて、景色も雄大で最高のツアーでした!
Me and my daughter recently did the Volcano Tour and we were lucky enough to have a wonderful, knowledgable Tour Guide by the name of Jane. I hope you relay to her once again how much we enjoyed the Tour. I have traveled 18 different countries and been on many tours but I enjoyed the casual way that she conducts her tour. She tells you what you need to know - answers all questions. She keeps you entertained full time and is very careful about what her people do and where they are. She stays with her visitors. I truthfully, enjoyed her tour better than any I have ever been on. She really is an asset to your company and good at what she does. I am really glad we took the tour as we have been to Hawaii 7 times and this is on the top of the list of what we have experienced. All other tours were good but this one was really good. Thank you and Thank Jane for such a wonderful - educational amount of entertainment you provided. Thanks again.......Audra E. LeGasse
An enjoyable boat ride, sit back and enjoy the scenery, maybe you'll see a humpback whale. If it's rough you might want Dramamine, I don't see any cautionary statements like that; but we've seen people get sea sick on other boats. The day we crossed it was calm and we had a nice passage. Staff was friendly and professional.
This is a fairly biased view to the tour since the airport was absolutely terrible on both directions (NOT the tour's fault).
The guide was ok, unanimated and didn't realise he told us the same stories multiple times - I found this funny but other people were getting really annoyed about it. If you like the history of sugar cane you'll get plenty of it!
The Canyon was AMAZING! As was Fern Grotto. Everything I thought was only ok in terms of interest sake.
Great day trip! I went on this trip with my husband for our anniversary. Our bus driver Dennis was very knowledgeable and friendly! Lots of different things to see and do from rain forest hikes, lava fields, black sand beaches, and an active volcano! Great for anyone who doesn't have a chance to stay on the big island.
We enjoyed the trip and tour very much. Leo was very nice and very informing about all the sites.
I participated in a sunset tour. Everything was in English, which might be tough for those who don't understand it at all. Personally, I dislike tours that are only for Japanese people, so I found it interesting. Also, since it's quite an expensive tour, there weren't many young people who looked like students (Maui itself is a luxury resort, so there weren't many young people like that).
The food and service were very attentive, and I think the cost performance is quite good. Cinnamon rolls, burritos, and fruits were served on the boat, along with a BBQ dinner, and on the way back, alcohol and ice cream desserts were provided. Of course, drinks were included as well. I think it was quite generous.
The staff answered various questions, and their explanations about the island and the boat were interesting. However, if you're a beginner at snorkeling, the sunset tour might be a bit challenging. Since the winds are strong in the afternoon in Maui, I recommend the morning tours over the sunset ones. It seems that morning is the best time for snorkeling in Maui. Therefore, I hardly saw any fish on this tour... Additionally, when we landed on the island, there were options for exploring the island by car or snorkeling at the beach, which was nice because we could do what we wanted.
I didn't feel seasick at all. People from other tour companies also said that Trilogy's tour is the least likely to make you seasick and that the service is good.
サンセットのツアーに参加しました。すべて英語です。まったく英語が分からない方にはつらいかもしれません。個人的には日本人だけのツアーが嫌いなので面白かったです。また、値段もかなりするツアーですので、学生と見られるような若い人はほとんどいません(マウイ自体高級リゾートなのであまりそのような若い人はいませんでしたが)。
ご飯やサービスは大変丁寧でコストパフォーマンスはかなりあると思います。シナモンロール、ブリトー、フルーツが船上で提供され、そしてBBQの夕食、帰りの船ではアルコール&アイスのデザートが提供されます。もちろん飲み物もです。かなりいたれりつくせりだと思います。
スタッフも色々質問に答えてくれます。島や船の説明も面白かったです。ただ、スノーケル初心者でしたら、サンセットのツアーはちょっと大変かもしれません。マウイ自体午後は風が強いのでサンセットのツアーよりも朝のツアーをお勧めします。マウイでのスノーケルは朝がベストのようです。なので、このツアーでは魚はほとんど見れませんでした。。。また、島に降りると、ドライブでの島散策やビーチでのスノーケル島各自チョイスがありますので、自由にできるのがよかったです。
船もまったく酔いません。他のツアー会社の人もトリロジーのツアーが一番酔わないし、サービスもよいといっておりました。
The tour was outstanding and was a highlight of our vacation. It was seeing something new and so different from our normal area and it really showed how powerful mother nature and Pele really are.
My husband, daughter, son-in-law, and myself went on this trip, and we had a great day. We flew over from Oahu, as we wanted to see another island, and "volcanoes" was on our bucket lists. The staff was friendly, professional, and always looking out for us. Dennis was our tour guide, and he was full of knowledge, and we especially enjoyed his coaching us on our usage of the Hawaiian language. The trip consists of a visit to Rainbow Falls, a waterfall park on the island(okay, but not awe inspiring), a stop at Mauna Loa nut factory (yum), a visit to a volcano field and a black sand beach(breathtaking), a stop at a orchid farm(they smelled divine), and finally the Volcano National Park. Don't go on this tour if you expect to see lava...all you will see is steam from vents in the park, and gasses far off in the distance. We knew this ahead of time and were not disappointed. We had a late flight, so Dennis dropped us off for a bit at a local shopping center, and then came back and to
got alot cover in one day. will recomend to others.
The tour was excellent. The tour driver did an awesome job. My only negative comment is that we had limited time to visit the land-based building exhibits. All exhibits on the tour were definitely worth the time and money. This is a high-value tour.
Captain Rob was very informative with great stories. His knowledge of the island, flora & volcano is amazing. He had a lot of patience with the stragglers.
Only recommendation for improvement would be to advise people not to buy any thing that is spreadable in addition to the liquids.
Excellent and a thoroughly enjoyable day. Pearl Harbour was amazing! Our Tour Guide Ben was great, very knowledgable, funny and fully committed to ensuring that all the guests "cousins" had a great time.
Damien was a great tour guide giving excellent information throughout the entire tour. The greatest part of the trip is the "Grand Canyon" of the islands. Although somewhat expensive (airfare I guess), my wife and I really enjoyed the day.
I could not have imagined how beautiful Maui was going to be! The entire day felt magical...like I had stepped into a completely different world somehow. My boyfriend felt the same way. The guide was really up on all the facts that we would want to know as tourists not being from there...and she made it a fun day, not boring or overly talkative like some tours we have been on either.
We are already decided that we WILL be coming back to Maui on our honeymoon, and driving the road to Hana as husband and wife...we loved it THAT much! Thanks for a great day.
Kind of expected this tour to be pretty boring, I have to admit. But I have family in the military so I figured I should pay my respects and go see what this place is all about.
I was pleasantly surprised. The exhibits were informative without being bland, and getting to actually go on a Navy launch, and walk around on an actual ship was pretty cool. The best part for me I think was the film they showed about the attack itself, with real footage and everything...that really made it real to me.
Worth a visit at least once in your life, and not even boring ;)
Nice and enjoyable day on the Big Island. We got to see quite a few different and beautiful places. The pick-up at the hotel in the morning was a little later than planned and there was some free time at the end of the day waiting for the plane back, but otherwise it was pretty well organized. Volcanoes national park is beautiful and probably unlike anything you've seen before. More time could be spent there and maybe less or skip the Macadamia nut factory, but we got to see the main spots of the park. Guide/driver was fun. Recommend this especially to first timers who don't have the chance to stay on the Big Island.
My family took this ferry between the islands. I was honestly wondering how the kids were going to behave on the trip, never having taken them on a ferry before...and knowing full well how crazy airplane travels usually are for us...I have to admit their was some hesitation on my part.
But the kids loved it...and it was really a short trip...done before they even had a chance to get grouchy or fidgety too much.
Added to the relatively short duration, were the views from the water that always gave us all something pretty to look at from all sides. A hassle free way to get between islands.
We really enjoyed our trip and tour of Oahu from the meeting at the airport until our drop off at the airport. Our driver was Leo C. and he did a great job. He made sure we knew exactly where we were going and he was very informative. About the only suggestion I would make is to try to, somehow, give a little more time at each sight at Pearl Harbor. Always seemed a little rushed. Maybe have a earlier flight to Oahu.
Having lived on Oahu for 5 1/2 years in the '50s and never having visited any of the other islands, my sister and I were expecting to see something different and unique. This tour certainly filled the bill and was both those things - and more! Our tour guide - Patty -was very knowledgeable about local and island history and places of interest. She stopped at more than the expected stops and we had plenty of time at each one of them to take pictures, visit any shops that were there and generally get a feel for the place. The fact that we were a small group - just 8 of us on a mini-bus - was fantastic and we turned into a group of 6 after lunch after dropping one couple off back at their Kauai hotel.
It was wonderful to see the unspoilt beauty of Kauai, much as Oahu was when we knew it and before development spoiled it. We were so happy to hear that there has been a limit put on the number of stories hotels there can have, albeit after Marriott built their 8-storey one. At lea
They picked me up on time, my flights were set, they took care of me all day in Pearl Harbor, the USS Missouri and the tour of Honolulu. Our guide Ben was great, bus was clean and tidy. Great day thank you very much!
great place a Must see pearl harbor
As "first timers" to Oahu, the tour was perfect for us. Our driver/guide "Gar...Garfield" did an excellent job navigating the traffic of Honolulu and providing informative insights to many of the locations we saw on the tour. He had a unique perspective of the island, city and memorials from his background growing up as a native of this beautiful state.
The planning and execution of the tour allowed flexibility and diversity for the tour group.
Thank you for a great day on Oahu.
Incredible. A nature so vast that it leaves you speechless awaited me. This island, with a completely different nature than Oahu, is definitely worth a visit. There was a bit of rain, but it created a rainbow, producing a magical landscape.
すごい。言葉にならないほどの大自然が待っていた。
オウフとはぜんぜん違う自然を擁するこの島は一度は訪れるべきだろう。若干の雨があったがそれが虹を生み、幻想的な風景を生み出していた。
