Could have started earlier to have more time for cocktails and buffet but everything was very good.

Great trip and highly recommended. The crew and live music were great and the activities included (paddle board, kayak, snorkel, volleyball) kept me and my wife busy during our time at the sandbar. We also saw live coral and a ton of fish as well as an octopus hiding near the anchor. Definitely a tour anyone should consider if they haven't visited the sandbar before. Having the boat also allowed us to avoid the sun and stay hydrated after the activities, sometime we wouldn't have been able to do if we had kayaked over from the harbor on our own.

We went out to sea under the setting sun.
Everything was perfect.
Lots of huge manta rays came close. Sometimes up to few feet away!!
The crew; Diego and Ryan were pampering us and taking care of our every needs.
Would recommend them anytime without a doubt.

What can I say about “uncle” Kevin…he was the best! He’s filled with so much information about the island and we could sit and listen for hours. We did snorkeling and SUP. While snorkeling we saw a whale! While SUP we saw turtles…AMAZING!!!

Hannah and Hayden were amazing! They picked fruit for us to try (which made the trip even better!), showed us a cave that we were able to look into, let us feed the cows and were just good people to talk with. The property is beautiful…especially from the top while eating a delicious dinner. We would 100% go back and do it again.

We had an amazing time and having the guides we did (we don’t remember their names but it was three ladies) made the experience even better! They got to know us and made the whole experience comfortable and fun! We do think the part where you pull yourself up should stay!! We had a great time trying to race to the top. Thank you for making something we were scared to do so fun!!!!

This was the most special experience of my life and I will remember it forever. Yoshi is the kindest and most knowledgeable person, the ride up the mountain was so smooth, the sunset was absolutely breathtaking, and seeing and learning about stars and planets really felt like dreaming. I truly believe it was the best day of my life.

Would recommend this to anyone the crew is outstanding the water was amazing. Beer was ice cold!!

We had a great time with the Smith Family cruising to the beautiful fern grotto. Our captain shared the history of the area with us as we cruised to the grotto and at the grotto, one of the performers shared more history with us. On the outward voyage we had music, dancing and song. On the way back we had the chance to learn a little hula dance. Gracious people and a good time.

It was a large two-story boat. The guide was in English.
I saw about 15 whales, but they were all quite far away, and I only saw them jump twice from a distance. I participated in mid-January, and right after we set sail, the captain announced, "This is the peak season," so I had high expectations... However, since it's nature, it's understandable, but it's better not to have too high expectations. The large boat made it less likely to get seasick, but the loud motor noise seemed to make the whales wary. They stuck around for about 10 minutes longer than scheduled, moving and stopping repeatedly.
The male guide talked about the ecology of whales, the history of whaling, and how they were on the brink of extinction. Since he was talking the whole time, we often spotted whales before he did. My knowledge about whales deepened.

【Parking】
The problem was the parking. Veltra mentioned that if you park in public parking for more than three hours, there’s a possibility of being towed, so they recommended paid parking. In the center of Lahaina, the parking fees are high—about $20 for 5 hours and $30 for a day. The Outlets of Maui, located about a 15 to 20-minute walk from Lahaina Harbor, offered free parking. It was very spacious, so there were no issues parking when participating in the whale watching at 9 AM. It was great because we could stroll around Lahaina while going back and forth to the harbor. We shopped at the outlet, but even without shopping, parking was free (there was no parking ticket, and you could come and go freely).
There is little information about parking in Lahaina in both Japanese and English, so I wanted to share this here.

2階建ての大きな船でした。英語ガイドです。
クジラは15頭くらい見えましたが全てかなり遠くて、ジャンプもかなり遠目に2回ほど。1月中旬に参加して、船に乗った出港直後に船長から「今がピークシーズンだ」とアナウンスがあったので期待していましたが…。相手は自然なので仕方ないですが、期待しすぎない方が良いです。大きい船だと酔いづらくて良いのですが、モーター音が大きい分クジラは警戒するようです。移動と停船を繰り返して予定より10分オーバーするまで粘ってくれました。
ガイドの男性はクジラの生態や捕鯨の歴史、絶滅しつつあったことなどを話してくれました。ずっとお話ししているためか私たちの方が早くクジラを見つけることもしばしば。クジラの知識は深まりました。

【駐車場】
困ったのは駐車場。veltraから公共駐車場は3時間以上駐車するとレッカーされる可能性があり有料駐車場を勧められました。ラハイナ中心地はは駐車場代が高く有料だ5時間20ドル、1日30ドルくらい。ラハイナ港から徒歩15分〜20分にあるアウトレットオブマウイは無料でした。とても広いので9時台のホエールウォッチングに参加する場合全く問題なく駐車できました。ラハイナの街を散策しつつ港と往復できるのでとても良かったです。私たちはアウトレットで買い物をしましたが、買い物をしなくても駐車場台は無料でした（駐車券が無く出入り自由です）。
日本語も英語もラハイナの駐車場情報が少ないのでここに記載させて頂きました。

Due to the impact of COVID-19, there are fewer optional tours that offer transportation, so I chose this one because I could walk to the meeting point, and I'm glad I did. The boat ride out to sea was pleasant, making for a comfortable time even while other participants were flying. After the tour, they will transfer the photos to your smartphone for a fee, and they also provide an SD card.

コロナの影響か、オプショナルツアの送迎があるものが少ないなか、徒歩で集合場所に行けるという理由で選択しましたが、選んでよかったと思います。沖に出るボートも気持ちよく乗れるので、他の参加者が飛んでる間も心地よい時間でした。
参加後、写真も有料ですがスマホに入れてくれます。併せてSDカードも渡してくれます。

Family, friends, the service, DJ, and everyone’s energy, a great time was had. The fireworks were beautiful. Defiantly, a must for a great evening out with those above or below drinking age. (The group checks IDs and gives out wrist bands)

I was relieved that they arrived on time to pick me up. The driver helped me with my suitcase and brought it into the bus, which made it very convenient since they also dropped me off at the airport. I will use this service again next time.

時間どおりお迎えに来てもらい安心しました。
運転手さんがス－ツケ－スを
バスの中まで入れて下さり
空港で降ろして下さるのでとても楽です。
また次回利用します。

The kids who love movies were having fun wondering, "Is this the scene? Is this the location of that scene?"

I was able to enjoy the drive while feeling nervous about the thrilling driving.

We had a good laugh at our faces and clothes covered in dust.

It became a great memory.

映画大好きな子供達は、これあの場面かな？あの場面の場所かな？と楽しんでいました。

私はスリリングな運転に緊張しながらも楽しんでドライブできました。

砂埃だらけになった顔や服を見て大笑い。

いい思い出になりました。

we were so satisfied with everything from the food and to the show! customer service was great when booking and the show was super entertaining!

This was a lovely experience. The jazz singer was incredibly fun and talented. The food was excellent. The servers (Collin and Rob) were incredibly kind and attentive. The sunset was stunning. Finally, the Polynesian show was lovely and a great way to end the night. I would come again.

This was an incredibly fun experience. What a great way to see the island. The first half was kayaking and snorkeling which was so fun—Jeremiah (Miah) was a knowledgeable and patient instructor. The second half was lunch and then a water fall hike with Nick from HikeMaui—Nick was a kind and intelligent guide and taught us so much about Maui. We also toured a farm and learned a lot about fruits and botany grown in Hawaii. 10/10 experience.

We participated as a couple in our 30s.
We were fortunate with the weather and were able to go to the sandbar under clear skies.

The sea was more beautiful than we imagined, and we were thrilled to encounter many sea turtles while snorkeling.

On our trip, there was a staff member who spoke Japanese, so it might be a good idea to inquire ahead of time since it may not be the case every time. However, I think those who are concerned about the language will feel reassured.

They properly checked the number of participants before setting out the boat, and there were plenty of snacks and drinks prepared. There were also various options for play equipment, making it a fulfilling and reassuring tour.

30代夫婦2人で参加しました。
天候にも恵まれて、晴天のなかサンドバーに行くことができました。

想像以上に美しい海でしたし、シュノーケリングではウミガメに沢山出会うことができて感動しました。

私たちの回はスタッフに日本語を喋れる方も同乗されていたので、毎回ではないかもしれないので問い合わせした方が良いかもしれませんが言語に不安がある方も安心ではないかと思います。

ちゃんと人数確認してから船をだしたり、お菓子や飲み物も沢山用意されていたり、遊ぶ道具も色々選択肢があり充実し、また安心できるツアーでした。

It was a great little activity. We had done this 26 years ago for our anniversary so doing it again on our anniversary trip was great.

The staff were funny and very enjoyable. It was disappointing we couldn't go in the cave the last time you could. However we understand why.

I would definitely recommend this activity. Hearing about the history was awesome.

Great great and nice beach to swim and snorkel and perhaps see dolphins

The ferry is clean, staff is friendly & helpful, ride is comfortable and you have a choice to be in air conditioning or open air.

We chose open air and had quite a show of whale activity.

I highly recommend!

サンセットを逃さないちょうど良い時間、完璧なタイミングで運ばれてくるお料理、楽しいショータイム、このお値段で盛りだくさんの納得の内容でした。
特にカニが美味しかったですし、全体の量も十分でした。
デッキからはワイキキの夕景や空港から飛び立つ飛行機が見えてとても綺麗です。
ただ、満席だった場合は隣の人と肩や肘がぶつかるくらいの距離感で仕切りのアクリル板などは無いので、そういうのが気になる方はご注意を。

We had a spectacular time! The crew was so fun and informative!

The location of the airport counter was easy to find, and they provided careful guidance all the way to the vehicle. The driver was friendly, and I was able to travel smoothly and safely to Waikiki.

空港カウンターの場所も分かりやすく、そこから乗車までも丁寧に案内してくれました。
フレンドリーなドライバーさんで、ワイキキ まで安心してスムーズに移動できました。

I enjoyed a traditional luau and music show in a lovely atmosphere. The fire dance was wonderful.
The seating was communal, which can feel a bit uncomfortable when it's crowded.
The buffet was decent in taste.

素敵な雰囲気の会場で伝統的なルアウやミュージックショーを楽しめました。ファイヤーダンス含め素晴らしかったです。
席は相席のようになっており、混んでいると少し落ち着かないです。
またビュッフェも味はまぁまぁでした。

I've always wanted to try surfing. On the first day of our arrival in Hawaii, I took advantage of the time before check-in to have my first challenge with my son. We received a brief explanation on the beach, and although we were filled with anxiety, both my son and I quickly learned to ride the waves. Since there was one instructor for the two of us, we repeatedly rode the waves and returned to the shore, and the one-hour course was more than enough for us. In fact, anything longer would have been physically challenging. I was worried about bumping into others at the crowded Waikiki Beach, but the area further out was relatively less crowded, so it wasn't a problem. It became a memorable experience of surfing in Hawaii!

以前からやってみたかったサーフィン。ハワイ到着初日、チェックインまでの時間を利用して、息子と初チャレンジしました。砂浜で簡単な説明だけを受け、不安だらけでしたが、自分も息子もすぐに波に乗れるようになりました。インストラクター1人に対して、自分と息子の2人でしたので、波に乗っては冲まで戻るを繰り返し、1時間のコースで十分満足でした。むしろ、それ以上は体力的に無理でした。人が多いワイキキビーチで、他人にぶつかったりしないか心配でしたが、沖の方は比較的人が少なく、問題ありませんでした。ハワイでサーフィンをした！という思い出作りになりました。

The photography spot where you can overlook Waikiki was truly amazing. Since it's all downhill, you hardly use any energy. With more than ten people descending the mountain in a line, when a car comes along, we step aside to let it pass, and the drivers, even if we don't know them, are friendly, which lifts our spirits as well.

ワイキキを一望出来る撮影スポットは本当に最高でした。
下り坂専門なので、体力も殆ど使わないで済みます。
10人以上が一列になって山を下るので、途中で車が来ると避けて、先に車を行かせる際に、見ず知らずの車のドライバーにも愛想が良く、見ている此方まで気分が良くなります。

The tour was absolutely amazing, the experience was so fun. I suggested my family and friends to visit hawaii and book the Kaneohe sand bar!y boyfriend and I had so much fun and the staffs were so friendly and helpful and so patient with everyone! The bay was so beautiful and calm, the water so clear and clean, we felt super safe while being there. We definitely enjoyed the water activities that was included in the package, I will definitely return and re book with you guys. We had a blast!

First, we filled our stomachs at the buffet, then moved on to the hall where the showtime began. Although Michael was a bit small and chubby, he was impressive with his dancing and singing.

最初にビュッフェでお腹を満たして、移動し、ホールでショータイムが始まります。
ちょっと、小さくてぽっちゃりのマイケルだったけど、踊りも歌もうまくて感動しました。

The scenery was absolutely stunning. I never expected to find such a shallow and beautiful spot in the middle of the ocean. During snorkeling, I got to see turtles and fish. I participated in December, and although it was somewhat cold, it was an amazing experience.

とにかく景色が最高だった。海の真ん中にこんなに浅くて綺麗な場所があるなんて思ってもいませんでした。シュノーケリングは、亀にも魚にも会えました。12月の参加でしたが、そこそこ寒いものの、感動ものでした。
