Great luau

Reviewed by: Meldebb

We drove from Wailea to attend this luau in Lahaina and it was well worth it. Extremely organized and handled a large crowd easily. Food and drinks were excellent and the show was equally entertaining. All the positive reviews I read about the Old Lahaina luau were spot on correct. Highly recommend this luau to everyone.

冬季限定!ホエールウォッチングクルーズ <12~4月/英語ガイド/ラハイナ港発>

This time of year is definitely the right choice! この時期はやはり正解!

Reviewed by: kurumi38

I was worried about seasickness, but I thought whale watching in Maui during winter was a must, so I participated. It seems to depend on the weather, but that day we were able to see whales breaching up close right away, and I quickly forgot my worries. They jumped several times in different places, so I was busy watching them. Since we had a Japanese guide during our time slot, we received detailed explanations about the whales' behavior and how to observe them, which made it even more interesting. I was more satisfied than I expected, and it truly became a wonderful memory.

船酔いが心配でしたが、冬場のマウイでホエールウォッチングははずせないと思い参加しました。
お天気に左右されるそうですが、その日はすぐに鯨のブリッジが間近に見ることができ、不安要素はすぐに忘れてしまうぐらいでした。
あちらこちらで何度もジャンプしてくれるので、見るのに忙しいぐらいでした。
私たちの時間帯は日本人ガイドさんがついて下さったので、鯨の生態や見方など詳しく説明してもらえ、さらに興味深く見ることができました。
期待以上に満足で、本当に楽しい思い出になりました。

Reviewed by: Paula

Old Lahaina Luau is top notch, the venue itself is beautiful...you are right on the water, therefore the sunset was beautiful. The tables are set up so that everyone is able to see the show. The food was really good and the drinks were great. They have a full open bar included in your ticket price. The wait staff was excellent. We loved the show it was beautiful and of course gave you a look into the history and culture. It was a magical evening and worth the cost. Even, if you have be n to other luaus this one is the best we have ever seen. Highly recommend.

冬季限定!ホエールウォッチングクルーズ <12~4月/英語ガイド/ラハイナ港発>

There were many. 沢山いました

Reviewed by: マウイ楽しかった

I participated in the morning cruise (around 9 AM). I had signed up for a Japanese tour, but unfortunately, it turned out to be an English tour. It seems there were many explanations about whales, but since I'm not fluent in English, I only managed to listen to "in the direction of ○ o'clock" f(^^;

February is the peak season, and as the local guide mentioned, "there are a lot of them," we could see spouts in various places. Unfortunately, we couldn't see any breaches like in the images, but we did catch glimpses of whales waving goodbye with their fins and their tails several times. Perhaps because it was a relatively large boat for whale watching, it seemed like we kept a certain distance from the whales and didn't get too close. This might be due to regulations regarding whales or safety considerations. I had hoped to see them a bit closer, but I guess it depends on luck. (Or maybe I should choose a tour with a smaller boat...?)

Fortunately, it was a calm day, and since I had taken motion sickness medication, I hardly noticed the rocking of the boat.

朝のクルーズ(9時台)に参加しました。
日本語ツアーを申し込んだのですが、残念ながら英語ツアーになりました。
鯨についての説明が沢山流れていたようですが、英語は堪能ではないので「○時の方向」というのだけ頑張って聴いていました f(^^;

2月はシーズンのピークで、ツアーの現地ガイドの方が「うじゃうじゃいます」とおっしゃっていた通り、あちこちで潮吹きしています。
画像にあるようなブリーチは残念ながらみることはできませんでしたが、遠目ながら鰭でのバイバイや、尾びれは何度かみることができました。
ホエールウォッチングツアーの中では比較的大きめのボートのせいか、あまり鯨に近寄らず、ある程度の距離を置くようにしていたように思えます。
鯨に対する規定や、安全に考慮しているのかもしれません。
もう少し間近に見ることができるのかと思っていましたが、そのあたりは運もあるのでしょうね。
(もしくはより小型の船のツアーを選ぶようにするか・・・?)

幸いなことに波が穏やかな日で酔い止め薬を飲んでいたこともあり、船の揺れはほとんど気になりませんでした。

伝統ルアウ&フラ ハワイアンショー マウイの神話 <優先入場VIP席あり/ビュッフェ夕食/飲み放題/ロイヤル・ラハイナ・リゾート>

I was very satisfied with the great seat. いい席で大満足

Reviewed by: anko

It was the perfect ending to our last night on Maui! The check-in time changed after we made our reservation, and the voucher stated a 6 PM check-in. However, we were able to sit down and start drinking at 6 PM, and the buffet began about 30 minutes after check-in, with the show starting even later.

Since alcohol is all-you-can-drink, they asked for a passport (or any ID that shows your age). A copy is fine, but a Japanese driver's license was not accepted. It was okay in Oahu, but here they were strict about alcohol, so my companion had to go back to the hotel to get it.

Before the show started, there was a ceremony where they presented a pig roasted in an imu. I felt really sorry seeing the pig's face looking right at us, but I enjoyed the kalua pig from the buffet with gratitude.

The show featured a variety of performances including hula, Tahitian, Samoan, Maori, and fire dancing. There was even a segment where we could participate on stage, so I joined in and danced. Since there were hardly any Japanese people in Maui, I felt it was easier to get into the spirit and enjoy myself even more!

マウイ島滞在最後の夜の締めくくりに最高の宴でした!
チェックイン時間は申し込んだあと変更になり、バウチャーには18時チェックインと記載されていましたが、18時から席についてドリンクを飲み始められるようになっており、ブュッフェが始まるのはチェックインから30分後くらい、ショー自体のスタートはさらにそのあとになります。
アルコール類も飲み放題なので、パスポート(年齢のわかるID)の提示を求められます。コピーでも大丈夫ですが、日本の運転免許証はダメでした。オアフでは免許証でも大丈夫なのですが…。アルコールについては厳しいので絶対NGだったため、同行者はホテルに取りに戻っていました。
ショーが始まる前にイムから焼いた豚を出す儀式がありました。眠りについて出てきたブーちゃんの顔がちょうどこちらを向いていて、気の毒でとてもいたたまれない気持ちになりましたが、ブュッフェのカルアピッグは感謝しながらおいしくいただきました。
ショーはフラ、タヒチアン、サモア、マオリ、ファイヤーダンスなど盛りだくさんで、途中ステージに参加できるコーナーがあったので一緒に踊ってきました。

I was deeply moved. 感激しました

Reviewed by: Ryoko

This was my first time participating. It was a Japanese tour, but the explanations were thorough and easy to understand.
I heard that 70% of the whales from Alaska come to Hawaii, and 90% of those come to Maui.

Since they are living creatures, the chances of encountering them are quite unpredictable, but I think we saw quite a few. When I went on another snorkeling tour, I also saw many whales, so I believe that riding on the boat more than twice increases satisfaction.

I heard that the peak is in February.

初めて参加しました。日本語ツアーでしたが、説明が丁寧で分かりやすかった。
アラスカから7割のクジラがハワイにやってきて、そのうちの9割がマウイに来るそうです。

生き物なので出会える確率はなかなか読めないのですが、結構見られたと思います。
別のシュノーケリングツアーに出かけたときもたくさんクジラが見られたので、2回以上船に乗ると満足度が高いと思います。

ピークは2月だそうです。

I was able to see a lot. たくさん見れました

Reviewed by: ひでこ

I decided to book online the day before and received a confirmation by evening. I took my 10-month-old son with me, and the boat was large enough, so there were no issues. However, the chairs on the second deck are fixed and a bit cramped. We were able to see whales multiple times, which was satisfying. The early morning tour is reasonably priced and refreshing, so I highly recommend it. The English guide only mentioned which direction we were facing, so I think it’s not a problem.

前日お昼に思い立ち現地でネット経由で申し込み、夕方には確約のお返事がきました。10が月の息子を連れて行きましたが船が大きく問題ありません。ただ二階のデッキは椅子が固定で狭いです。鯨も何回も見れ、満足です。早朝ツアーが、値段お手頃清々しくオススメです。英語のガイドでも、何時の方向に今いるよくらいにしか言ってなかったので問題ないかと思います。

マウイ島 アトランティス潜水艦 ハワイの海底アドベンチャー <日本語オーディオガイド>

潜水!潜水!潜水! Dive! Dive! Dive!

Reviewed by: JUN♂

I really wanted to participate in whale watching, but since it wasn't during the peak season of February to March, I decided to enjoy the waters of Maui with this tour instead.

Since it was my first time in Maui, I chose the 9 AM tour that included a pickup service. A minivan taxi picked us up at our hotel and then picked up a family of foreigners at a nearby hotel before arriving at the meeting point by the Banyan Tree on the ocean side. We showed our voucher to the staff, and since we needed a Japanese audio guide, we received headphones in a bag and waited under the tent for a while.

Gradually, more people gathered, and we began boarding the boat heading to the submarine offshore. This is when we took photos. After about 10 minutes, we met up with the submarine and descended the ladder backward into the vessel. There were about 15 of us in total, including small children, and we were the only Japanese people. The staff seemed to be considerate, as they seated us at the very back (stern) away from the foreigners, allowing us to relax.

Underwater, there was no rocking, and since it was morning, it felt slightly dim, but the tour progressed smoothly. Along the way, we encountered a sunken ship, which made me laugh unexpectedly due to something I saw. I thought, "In a place like this..." (chuckle).

Before I knew it, the tour was over, and we surfaced. We exchanged places with the next group of people and watched the submarine descend as we headed back to the dock. Here, we were handed the photos taken before boarding (with a backing of the Atlantis) and those who wanted to buy them could pay $20.

As we were getting off, I realized that the staff member who had been next to us during the tour spoke Japanese, so they had indeed been considerate. I gave that staff member a tip as a thank you.

Overall, I made some great memories, but since I feel satisfied after experiencing it once, I rated it four stars. I hope this is helpful!

本当はホエールウォッチングに参加したかったのですが、本格的な見頃である2月~3月では無かったので、このツアーで取り敢えずマウイの海を堪能しました。

今回マウイは初めてだったので、送迎サービスがある9時開始を選びました。
ミニバンタクシーが私達をホテルでピック後、すぐ隣のホテルで外人さんファミリーをピックアップしてバニヤン・ツリー海側の集合場所へ到着。
受付の人にVoucherを見せ、私達は日本語の音声ガイドが必要だったので袋に入ったヘッドフォンを受け取りテント下で暫く待機。
次第に人が集まってきて、沖合の潜水艦に向かう船に乗船開始。その時に写真撮影を行います。
10分ぐらいで潜水艦と合流しタラップを後ろ向きで降りて艦内へ。
小さな子供さん達を含めて総勢15名程で日本人は私達だけでした。スタッフが気を遣ってくれたのか、外人さん達とは離れた一番奥(船尾)に座らされノンビリと出来ました。

海中は揺れも無く、朝という事で若干薄暗い感じでしたが順調にツアーが進んで行きました。
途中、沈没船が現れるのですが、とある物で思わず笑ってしまいました。
こんな所に・・・(苦笑

そうこうしている間にツアー終了となり海面へ浮上。
次のツアーの人達と交代して、潜行していく潜水艦を見届け船着場へと向かいます。
ここで乗船前に撮影した写真(アトランティス号の台紙付き)を手渡され、買いたい人は20$を払います。

降りる際、ツアー中私達の隣に居てくれたスタッフが日本語を話していたので、やはり配慮してくれてたんだなと改めて実感。お礼も兼ねてそのスタッフにチップを渡しました。

評価としては、良い思い出が出来ましたが、1度体験すれば満足なので星4つとしました。
参考になれば幸いです。

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.

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!!!

I was able to see whales and dolphins! くじらとイルカを見ることができました!

Reviewed by: shokoi

I participated in the 7:30 English tour. I was able to see whales. I saw spouts and tails several times, and just as we were about to head back to the port, we spotted another whale in the distance. The boat headed towards it, and this time the whale jumped and even waved goodbye at the end. I was very satisfied, especially since jumping is not something you see every day. Additionally, on the way back, we also got to see dolphins jumping up close! I think the waves were relatively calm, but when we stopped to watch the whales, the boat swayed quite a bit as we turned to face the direction where the whales appeared.

7:30の英語ツアーに参加しました。
クジラ、見れました。潮吹きと尾ひれを何度か見て、港へ戻りかけたときにまた遠くにクジラが見えたので、そちらの方に船が向かってくれて、今度はジャンプと最後にはバイバイまでしてくれました。ジャンプは毎日見れるものではないということで、なんとも演出上手なクジラで大満足でした。さらに帰りには間近でイルカのジャンプも見れました!
波は穏やかな方だったのではないかと思いますが、クジラを見るために停まっているときは、クジラの出た方向へ船先をぐいっと向けるため、その際大きく揺れました。

Maui to Lanai Snorkel Cruise with Breakfast & Lunch from Lahaina

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

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.

Maui Whale Watch Cruise from Lahaina -Temporarily Not Available [Dec-May]

Worthwhile if timing and cost are right

Reviewed by: mauinowie

Like most things on maui, they are expensive for what they are, especially the tourist items. We found a discount early bird package and I think w paid just under $50 for two of us. We also tipped the crew $5 and paid for our picture $20...like real tourists do. Both the top and particularly the picture were optional but I got roped into it. It was early in the season also, just the start of the whale season. We did spot a few whales but they were a bit far away and hard to see. We were able to see a few from shore as well, but of course, even farther away. the weather was flawless and there is no reason that I saw not to take the early morning package for the reduced price. I would definitely try to sit up front in the future, but we sat in the back. The issue being best view, but there is enough to look at with the sides and rear that even the back is more than tolerable. We took some photos, which only included little blips of whales off in the distance. I think I would target this venue for prime season to be sure to see more. My understanding is about 4000-8000 whales will congregate.. We saw maybe 5.
