All Reviews for Cruise Ship Shore Excursions

This time, I arrived at the location and signed up for this tour. I suddenly decided to go to Haleakalā after arriving, so I didn't have any warm clothing, and I chose this tour for the simple reason that it included warm clothing.

As a result, I was very satisfied!

I was surprised to find that almost everyone participating in the tour was a fan of the guide, Yamapi. Ignorance can be terrifying; it turns out that Yamapi is quite a celebrity. I was really surprised to learn that everyone comes to Maui to join Yamapi's stargazing tour—he's incredibly popular. And I was lucky!

I've been on various tours before, but this one was truly great. I want to go back to Maui to participate in this tour again.

今回、現地に着いてこのツアーに申し込みました。現地に着いてから急にハレアカラへ行こうと決めたので、防寒着等を持っておらず、防寒着付きという安易な理由でこのツアーに決めました。

結果、大満足！

何の情報もなく、このツアーに参加してビックリしたこと。それは参加してるほとんどの人がガイドの山ピーさんのファンということ。無知とは恐ろしいもので、この山ピーさん、かなりの有名人だそう。山ピーさんの星空ツアーに参加したくて皆さんマウイへ来てるというから本当にびっくり、大人気。そして私はラッキー♪

今まで色んなツアーへ行ってきましたが、本当によかったです。またマウイへこのツアーに参加しに行きたいと思います。

My wife was hesitant to attend but did so as it was something I wanted to do. Afterwards she stated how much fun she had. The food was great and she loved the show.
Great job.

This was the best tour I have ever participated in. The sunset at Haleakalā and the stargazing were wonderful, but I was moved by the hospitality, including Mr. Yamauchi's stories. I hope to join again someday.

これまで参加したツアーの中で最高のツアーでした。
ハレアカラのサンセット、星空鑑賞も良かったですが、山内さんのお話を含め、
そのホスタビリティに感動しました。
いつかまた、参加したいと思います。

My wife and I went on the Captain Cook dinner cruise last week, and it was much better than either of us expected. The musical entertainment was first class, and we were able to watch spinner dolphins and short-finned pilot whales. It was hard to hear the narration of the historical sites, but that was probably our fault for sitting on the other side of the boat. We would definitely do this again if we ever visit Kona in the future.

I went to the summit of a 3000-meter mountain for the first time in my life. I thought it was about the same height as Mount Fuji, but we smoothly ascended while enjoying the wonderful scenery by car. The summit is quite cold, but with jackets, gloves, and warm tea provided, we were able to spend our time comfortably. There were frequent stops for restrooms, so there was no need to worry about that.
The guide, Mr. Yamauchi, is a very experienced veteran, knowledgeable about the stars, and reliable, allowing us to create one of the wonderful memories of our lives.
I highly recommend this tour to everyone; I believe it’s a fantastic experience that should be done at least once in a lifetime if possible.

人生初めての3000メートルの山の山頂に行きました。富士山と同じ位の高さかと思いますが、車で素晴らしい景色を見ながらスイスイ登って行きました。山頂はかなり寒いですが、ジャケットと手袋、温かいお茶を用意してくださり、快適に過ごすことが出来ます。トイレも頻回に止まってくださるので、トイレの心配もいりません。
ガイドの山内さんは大変なベテランで、星空の知識も詳しく、頼もしく、素晴らしい人生の想い出の一つを作ることが出来ました。
これは皆さんにオススメする、可能であれば人生に一度は体験すべき素晴らしいツアーだと思います。

Best luau that I have been to. My family, including my teenage son, we all agreed it was the best time of our 8 day vacation. The Chief was funny and you felt like you were part of his family, All the performers, including the Chief were terrific and talented and so friendly .
Buffet was very good, the backdrop of the beautiful shore and ocean waves and the sunset was just too beautiful to describe.
This is the luau to go to!

This is by far the best dinner cruise on the Island ,music,dancing,and a fun time ,The food was outstanding ,the crew could not do enough for you ,this would be a first for me 10 out 10 ,and bonus seen dolpins again ,top sunset .
,
And CPt Cook site

This is a top day out .with a lovely Hawaii style breekie and lunch .,the best boat lots of room ,very professional done ,in a relaxed and fun filled day ,lots of Dolphins ,highly recommend

It was the most wonderful experience with my family. We went the morning program and the weather was great (not too sunny but not too cloudy). The staff crews and captain are wonderful to serve every single passenger. Ola, one of staff remembers our names and keep checking us often. Dolphins were waiting for our Body Grove boat and played with our boat both ways from/to the spot. The snorkeling was beautiful ever and the meals were also wonderful. My wife had a motion sickness and hard time to survive but all other four family members had life-long unforgettable memory. If you have motion sickness, better to prepare some medicine to prevent it. My kids enjoyed the high jumps. There are some waves. Thanks to Captain and all crews.

My first time on Maui! First, I want to shout out that our guide, Yamauchi-san, also known as Yamachan, was amazing! On the way to Haleakalā, we started with fun conversations in the car, filled our stomachs at Krispy Kreme, and had the chance to choose sushi for dinner at a supermarket, as well as enjoy a shop selling special coffee and honey. We took our time at each place, allowing us to enjoy everything without feeling rushed.

As we ascended to the summit, the temperature dropped, but they provided us with jackets, gloves, blankets, and warm tea. The sunset was absolutely beautiful!!! I could forget the cold and just keep watching. Yamachan's timing in preparing everything according to the sunset was impressive, showcasing years of experience. We had so much fun eating the sushi we bought in the car and chatting until it got completely dark!

The excitement of looking up at the starry sky was incredible! The moment we all looked up together was truly moving!!!! This was my first time seeing such a star-filled sky!!! It was really touching!! They even showed us various stars through a telescope, which was fantastic. We could sit back and enjoy the view! Yamachan's stories were also very touching.

I hope many people get to experience looking up at the starry sky with their loved ones and hear Yamachan's stories. It was truly the best time. I participated in this tour just one day before returning home, and it became a wonderful memory. I would love to join again when I visit Maui. Thank you so much!

初めてのマウイ島！まず声を大にしてお伝えしたいのいがガイドの山内さんこと山ちゃんのガイド最高です！ハレアカラに到着するまでの道中、車内で楽しいお話から始まり、クリスピードーナッツ屋でお腹を満たし、途中スーパーで夜に食べるお寿司を選んだり買い物ができたり、特別なコーヒーや蜂蜜が販売している売店も楽しむことができたり一つ一つの場所でゆっくりと時間をとってくださり時間に余裕をもって楽しむことができました。
頂上にいくにつれて気温は下がりますが上着や手袋、毛布、温かいお茶もご用意してくれています。
サンセットはもうこれはこれは美しい！！！寒さなんて忘れてずーと見ていられます。
陽の沈む時間に合わせて色々準備してくださる山ちゃんのタイミング、長年の経験は本当にすごいです。真っ暗になるまで車内で買ったお寿司を食べたりお話をしたりすごく楽しかったです！
いざ星空を見上げるまではわくわく！せーので見上げた瞬間は本当に感動しました！！！！こんな満天の星空は人生初です！！！本当に感動します！！望遠鏡で色々な星も見せてくださったりこれまた最高です。
椅子に腰をかけながらゆっくり見れます！山ちゃんの話もとても感動しました。
大切な方と一緒に星空を見上げて、山ちゃんのお話を是非沢山の方に聞いて欲しいなと思いました。
本当に最高の時間でした。帰国1日前にこのツアーに参加させて頂きましたが、最後に本当にいい思い出となりました。またマウイに訪れた際は参加したいです。本当にありがとうございました。

Was really well done. Worth the money. Great entertainment and food.

We had an amazing time. It was more then what we expected. From the tour bus to the food and great entertainment we never stopped smiling or laughing. I would recommend this to family and friends. My husband and I have been to a Luau before and this was the first time for our boys who are 13 & 11. They loved ever minute of it.

We opted for the 5-star menu, and it was awesome. food was delicious, and service was fantastic. It was a terrific way to celebrate our anniversary.

We had a wonderful evening. Food was great, entertainment was fun. Very helpful staff. Would recommend this to everyone.

The sunset and night view were amazing. The jackets and blankets were appreciated, but it's best to dress warmly. Compared to the time spent viewing the craters and Haleakalā, it felt like we spent a long time shopping for souvenirs. It would have been even better if we could have visited one more sightseeing spot instead of spending so much time at the supermarket.

夕焼けも夜景も最高でした。ジャケットや毛布はありがたかったですが、たくさん着込みましょう。
クレーターとかハレアカラを見る時間に比較すると、お土産を買う時間が長かったかな。スーパー訪問を減らしてもう一箇所くらい観光スポットに連れてってくれるともっと良いかも。

The buffet was abundant with all-you-can-drink options, and the meat dishes were particularly delicious (though the seasoning was a bit strong). I spent a leisurely time watching the sunset, and although there were hardly any Japanese people around, it felt like a family atmosphere, as mentioned in someone else's experience. I chatted a bit with the couples and families nearby, but I think it would have been an even better dinner if I had stronger English skills! However, since the time was long, I found myself battling sleepiness in the second half...

豊富なビュッフェに飲み放題、特に肉類は美味しかったです(味付け濃いめでしたが)。
サンセットを見ながら、ゆっくり過ごし、日本人はほとんどいませんでしたが、どなたかの体験談にもあったように周りの席とは家族のような感じでした。
周りの夫妻や家族と少し会話しましたが、自分に英語力があればもっといいディナーになっていたとおもいます！
ただ時間が長いので後半は睡魔との戦いでした...

We really enjoyed our Hawaii Five-0 tour. It was fun to see the many locations we have seen on television. We also really enjoyed our guide's expertise. The highlight of the tour was our time at the home for Steve McGarrett. The owners of the home were very special people. The only downside was it was off season so we didn't get to experience an actual taping of the show. Still would give this tour 5 stars! Thank you!

We participated as a family of five.
Listening to the wonderful stories from our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, while stargazing is something the kids will definitely remember for a lifetime!
This is an absolute must-do on a tour of Maui!
I'm not great at expressing it in words, so please be sure to experience it for yourself!

家族5人での参加です。
ガイドの山内さんの素敵な話を聞きながらの星空観測は子供たち一生懸命忘れないと思います！
マウイ島のツアーでこれは絶対に外せないです！
言葉で伝えるの下手くそなので、是非体験してください！

The tour guide spoke only in English, but it was fine since we just had to follow along. It was a standard plan, but we were able to see quite closely. There was a lot of talking, so I think it would have been more enjoyable if I understood English better. The fire dance was impressive with a large crowd. The food was typical buffet fare, and the only traditional Hawaiian dish was kalua pork. If you're not specifically looking for Hawaiian cuisine, it was enjoyable enough.

ツアーガイドは英語のみですが、付いていくだけなので問題はありませんでした。スタンダードプランでしたが、結構近くで見れました。トークが多いですので、英語が解ればより楽しめたと思います。ファイアーダンスは大勢で迫力がありました。料理は一般的なビュッフェ料理で、ハワイ伝統料理はカルーアポークくらいでした。ハワイ料理が目的でなければ、十分楽しめる内容でした。

What a great experience. The buss was right on time. The driver was funny and knowledgeable. She talked about the island as we drove to the Sea Life center. The Laura was very well organized, the setting was amazing. Made you feel like you were miles from anywhere. The show and culture was perfect. The fire dancers were my favorite. Food! Wow, very well done. I highly recommend this Laura. We were not disappointed, I actually figured these thing are touristy and would not have much Culture in the program. Not this one. It's great I thought.

From breathtaking Hanauma Bay to the Byodo Temple and Pali Lookout, this tour was captivating. Our driver/guide was excellent. Both of our tours by Enoa were outstanding. Pickups and tours were on time. Very reasonable fees! Highly recommend Ventura!

Very enjoyable. Would recommend this cruise to couples. Staff are friendly.

Great tour with Cousin Fred, our driver-guide. He gave great tips on navigating the USS Arizona memorial. Downtown tour was happy Guly informative. Shuttle coach was comfortable but there were bumpy roads.

The Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise was the best I have ever experienced! Food was excellent and rates a 10!!! The service was top notch with the servers offering to do anything to make our trip pleasant and fun. The entertainment was more than expected and with the audience participation it made the evening so enjoyable. I would take my whole family next time!

Great day, great crew. Extremely safety conscious company. We had a rough ride a fair way so it was good to feel in safe hands. Saw many dolphins and a few turtles too.

I deeply realized that there are many moving experiences in the world that you can only understand by experiencing them. Thank you for a wonderful time. When I close my eyes, it feels like a sky full of stars appears.

経験してみないとわからない感動が世の中にはたくさんあるのだなとしみじみ思いました。
素晴らしい時間をありがとうございました。
目を瞑ると満天の星が浮かんでくるようです。

Had a great time. It's worth it. Highly recommeded

Yam P was very good at talking and it was fun the whole time, but unfortunately, we couldn't see the sunset due to bad weather. I want to try again, but I wonder when I can go... That was the only disappointing part. It was nice to stop by the Claw Lodge, visit Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, and go to the supermarket as well. I'm not sure if the starry sky was affected by the weather, but it wasn't that impressive... just as I expected. I've participated in a similar sunset and starry sky tour at Kilauea Volcano on the Big Island, and that one was definitely more beautiful and moving. If I get the chance to go again, I might want to try for a redo. The guide, Yam P, was really great, so I would like to request him again!

山Ｐさんはとても話し上手でずっと楽しくて良かったのですが、肝心のサンセット、天候が悪く見れませんでした。またリベンジしたいのですが、いつ行けるのやらです。。。そこだけが残念でした。途中クラロッジに寄ったり、クリスピークリームドーナツに寄ったり、スーパーにも行けて良かったです。星空は天候のせいなのかは分かりませんが・・・感動はさほどで。。。思った通りでした。ハワイ島のキラウェア火山で同じようなサンセット＆星空ツアーに参加したことがありますが、そちらの方が断然綺麗で感動しましたよ。また行けるときがあればリベンジしようかな。ガイドの山Ｐさんはすごく良かったのでまたお願いしたいです！！

It was uncertain whether we would see whales towards the end of the season, but unfortunately, we didn't. I will try again.

シーズン終わり近くで、クジラが見られるか微妙でしたが、残念ながら見れませんでした。
また挑戦します。

Our Driver, Brandon was fun, energetic and informative. We couldn't have asked for a better trip all around.
