Maui
What a great trip! Our guides were very knowledgeable about the region. During our stops we learned some history. We did not expect the tour to be part of an island reforestation project. A couple kids helped plant a new tree on the hillside.
The equipment ran great and the conditions were ideal. Just enough rain to make it really fun!
The captain & crew were fantastic; we thoroughly enjoyed being under sail for a portion of our evening; the cocktails were delicious as were the Tapas. We will definitely book one of these cruises again the next time we are in the area! Can't wait to go again
Sunset Cruise on the Sea Maui was just great. Crew was welcoming and took care of everyone. Drinks were plentiful and food was delicious. One of our group was a tad seasick, and crew tended to her and had tricks to make her feel better. Sunset was beautiful and champagne with chocolate strawberries was perfect!
My wife and I had an incredible time. The staff were wonderful and we had an amazing few hours exploring the reef.
It was relaxing and wonderful. Loved the drinks and food.
Great Trail Ride. Bring dramamine if you’re prone to motion sickness. Wear long sleeves/rash guards, bring sun screen and if your shorter…you should sit in front. There’s two stops for switching also.
They plant a tree at one stop which I loved! Returning what as taken and they’re helping to conserving water while helping to preserve the land.
They also have a wash station for after your trip.
Bring a water bottle and sun screen!
This was absolutely one of the best 2 hours we spent in Maui! The staff on board was truly fantastic and the live music was delightful! All of this despite losing my phone overboard. ♀️
Awesome people ! They did a great job job of ensuring everyone had a good time
Great crew who really take care of you! The scenery cannot be beat! The drinks were great and the staff and captain were the best. I wish the music was a little more modern!
We had a great time at the luau. It was right at sunset so the weather was perfect. The open bar was really fun for our group, and after a mishap when they brought us a drink with an allergen for one of us in it, they were then super accommodating for the rest of the night assuring we had special plates with no contact to our food allergies! The performances were so fun and it was overall a great time.
We had a great time! The guides were friendly and fun and ensured safety at all times. The ATVs were easy to drive and the road was easy to drive, but still exciting. Maui Off Road Adventures is an eco nature tour, so on the stops we got to learn about the pineapple plantation and the evo challenges Maui Off Road Adventures are working to overcome. It was neat to learn about the area and play a small part in healing the land.
Highly recommend Sea Maui…Captain Brad, Mario and Andrea were awesome. Great service, pupus and cocktails! They helped make the evening very special for us as my son proposed to his girlfriend! She said yes! It was perfect.
Due to covid restrictions, we had fewer people around us,and the food was brought to our table. No buffet. So we had great seats, smaller crowds and the food was absolutely wonderful! Through in an incredible sunset 4 days before the summer solstice and bam! An absolutely wonderful experience.
We thoroughly enjoyed our sunset cruise experience with Trilogy. The crew was super friendly and accomodating and the sunset was spectacular! I would highly recommend it.
Spacious ship, friendly staff, good food, excellent itinerary!! Bathrooms clean and would definitely sail with them again! Loved my experience!!!
What a great way to end our trip! Can't wait to do this again next time!
We had a great time. Our guides were fun and patient with us!
Had a great snorkel morning with the kids in Lanai. The staff was very informative and pleasant. Very well organized and nice activity for the entire family. A great option to spend a morning while visiting Maui.
Warmest Mahalo for Your 5 Star Review of Kaanapali Ocean Adventures to Lanai. Greatly Appreciated
Outstanding in every way!! The crew was great and the boat was first class!!
This is a don"t miss adventure for Maui!
Well worth it.
Super fun trip! you even get to plant a tree! Not for those who get car sick but it was so fun!
Such a cool and relaxing experience. We went during whale watching season and saw so many whales. The drinks and company were great, and so was the food! 100% recommended.
Great sunset cruise! The crew was amazing! It rained most of our cruise but seeing so many whales up close and the positive vibes from the crew was well worth it!! The food and drinks were great!!
Thank you guys so much for taking the time to write this review, We really appreciate the kind words and are delighted you guys had such a good time!
Hopefully we will sail with you again in the not too distant future.
Our group of five enjoyed every minute of the cruise. Crew and captain were wonderful and attentive. Whales were around us constantly. Fun music and yummy food and drink. Champagne and chocolate covered strawberries at sunset was the perfect ending. We will definitely do this again.
This excursion was all around amazing. The staff, food, and drinks were all wonderful. Beautiful sunset and we saw SO many whales. We will be booking this every time we visit Maui. A great experience.
Staff was awesome and boat was great. One of the few attractions ope. During the pandemic as Hawaii was coming out of mandatory quarantine (Oct. 2020). Had a great time. Would recommend this excursion/activity.
Karlos aka Jessy made the adventure a ton of fun. This is by far one of the best zip lines in Maui. It’s very convenient if you are staying in Kaanapali or Lahaina. Would do this again. Highly recommend booking with Jessy if you want a great adventure.
Mahalo! Thank you for the shout out to our guides. We love hearing from our guest and are happy you had a great time. If you ever find yourself back in the islands, Come back and see us again!
Our trip was amazing! Great food and drinks! The entire staff was very accommodating and served the best food and drinks! The catamaran was very safe and top of the line. Very fun atmosphere! Our cruise also turned into whale watching! We had so much fun we booked another trip a few days later. We would recommend this trip if you want to have a beautiful, fun evening!
The boat crew was amazing. You will take your shoes off prior to entering the boat and the crew assists with the facilitation of passengers onto the vessel. The main challenge is timing the waves with getting passengers on board. The crew did a great job with this and ensured everyone stayed dry (for the most part!) Once on the boat there are several different seating options: Bean bag chairs, bench seating down by the bar area, and seating on the front of the vessel. I would recommend sitting in the bean bags as they are comfortable and provide a great view (just be careful with your phone as there are slits it could possibly fall through into the ocean.)
Dinner was served on the boat and it was excellent. The brussel sprouts and chicken bites were delicious! Drinks were also served and the crew did a great job with serving everyone in a timely and frequent manner. The trip was extra special for me as my wonderful fiance (then boyfriend) proposed to me as the sun set over the mountains. My friends worked with the crew members to make the moment extra special as they deliberately turned the boat for us to see the sunset in our engagement pictures. During/after the proposal they provided us with a champagne shower and the rest of the bottle of champagne! Truly a moment we will never forget.
A++ experience!
This excursion was beyond what I expected! The boat ride was smooth and there was plenty of space for my friends and I to enjoy the ride! We had cute bean bag chairs to sit on which added to our excitement. The crew members showed great service and were happy to get to know us a little when the time was right and everyone on board had been helped. Very easy going and fun guys to hang out with! The crew even made our friends proposal extra special by turning the boat around at the perfect time so we could have the best pictures of the event- and were more than happy to celebrate by bringing out champagne! I also feel like I need to comment on the food- the Brussels were the best I’ve ever had- and being from the south, I’ve tried them many ways. If you’re going on this excursion, be prepared to have a great evening, get your toes wet, and enjoy the views. 10/10 for a great time and great company!
This was my first time in Maui during this season, so I thought whale watching was a must and signed up for it. Initially, I had booked a tour departing from Kaanapali Beach, but it was changed to Lahaina at the last minute. I was a bit confused, but since we boarded from the pier instead of the beach, it was nice not to get wet while boarding. (I received several emails from Veltra regarding the change, which was helpful.)
The frequency of whale encounters was higher than I expected, so in that sense, I was satisfied. However, I think it would have been even better if we could have gotten a bit closer to see them. The explanations about the whales' ecology were in English, but they were detailed and easy to understand.
The meeting time was 7:45, with the tour starting at 8:00. Veltra advised us to arrive by 7:30, but in the end, there was no guidance until just before 8:00, and participants seemed to be gathering in the designated area looking a bit lost, which made me somewhat anxious. The light snack was a ham and cheese croissant sandwich (which tasted good). There was also fruit available, but it felt more like a self-service situation rather than being fully catered.
During this season, there are a considerable number of whales near the coast, and for those who are sensitive to being on boats, you can also see them at the scenic point in Maalaea Bay.
この時期のマウイは初めてでしたので、ホエール・ウオッチングは外せないと思い、申込みました。
当初カアナパリビーチ発を申し込んでいましたが直前にラハイナ発に変更となり、少し戸惑いましたが、ビーチからでなく桟橋からの乗船だったため乗船時に濡れることなく良かったです。(ベルトラさんからは変更につき事前に何度かメール連絡をいただき助かりました)
思ったよりもクジラに遭遇する頻度は高く、そういう意味では満足でした。
ただ、もう少し近づいて見ることが出来たら、なお良かったと思います。なおクジラの生態等について英語でしたが詳しくわかりやすい説明でした。
集合は7:45、ツアースタート8:00で、ベルトラさんからは7:30までには現地へとのアドバイスがあったのですが、結局8:00ぎりぎりまで
案内はなく、参加者らしき人たちが指定場所で所在なげに集まっていたので、やや不安ではありました。軽食はハム・チーズのクロワッサンサンド(味は良かったです)。果物もありましたが、必要な人は自分で取にいく感じで至れり尽くせりという感じではありませんでした。
この時期は沿岸近くに相当数のクジラがおり、船に弱い方はマアエラア湾のscenic poitでも見ることはできます。
