I planned the tour to coincide with the new moon, so it turned out to be the perfect sunset tour as I had hoped. Our usual Japanese guide will provide the tour. Traveling to Hawaii, including Maui, is always enjoyable and creates wonderful memories, no matter how many times I visit.
新月の日程に合わせて、ツアーを計画したので、思い通りの最高のサンセットツアーになりました。いつもの日本人ガイドさんの案内は観光いたします。マウイ島を含めた、ハワイ旅行は何度来ても楽しくて、思い出が作れます。

The staff were friendly, and the service on board was attentive. On the way to Lanai Island, we encountered a pod of wild dolphins, and it was wonderful to stop the boat and take our time to watch them. Once we arrived at Lanai Island, we were able to see many colorful fish while snorkeling! Those who wished could participate in a tour of Lanai Island, and I joined. The local female guide was very polite and shared many stories unique to the area. On the return trip, we enjoyed drinks while watching the sunset, making for a truly lovely time. I would definitely like to go again!
フレンドリーなスタッフの皆さんで、船内でのサービスも行き届いていました。ラナイ島に到着する途中、野生のイルカの群れにも遭遇し、船をとめて、ゆっくり眺める時間も素晴らしかったです。ラナイ島に到着してのシュノーケリングでは、色とりどりの魚をたくさん見ることができました!
希望する人は、ラナイ島内の観光に参加することができ、参加しました。ガイドの現地の女性もとても丁寧に、地元の方ならではのお話をたくさん聞かせてくださいました。
帰りの船内も、夕暮れを見ながらお酒をいただき、とても素敵な時間となりました。またぜひ、行きたいです!

I participated this week. I was given headphones for the audio guide, but the audio guide was not available in Japanese channels, nor in Chinese or Korean. My mother and my two daughters were disappointed because they were told there would be a Japanese guide, but it didn't play. I also applied under the assumption that there would be a Japanese guide, and I feel very dissatisfied. Please convey this to the organizing company so they can address it in the future.

I visit Hawaii every year, but embarrassingly, this was my first time on Maui. Since winter in Maui is known for whale watching, I woke up early to participate. The reason for the early morning plan was to ensure parking at the public parking lot and to go for brunch afterward.
The crew definitely helped us spot whales, and their explanations about their behavior, including when the next jump would happen, were spot on. I truly enjoyed the experience. I believe the cost performance is excellent as well. Please be generous with tips when disembarking.
毎年ハワイに来ますが恥ずかしながらマウイ島は初めて。マウイ島の冬はホエールウォチングということで、早起きして参加しました。早朝プランと早起きの理由は、パブリックパーキングに確実に駐車すること、終了後ブランチに行くことにしていた為です。
クルーは確実にクジラを発見してくれ、その生態から次にジャンプが来る等の説明も的確で本当に堪能しました。
コストパフォーマンス的にも最高かと思われます。下船時にはチップを弾んでください。

My first whale watching experience! I had always wanted to see it at least once. In February, I went to Maui. Since it was the season, my expectations were high! However, the tour times and arrival times were a bit tricky, and I wasn't sure when to book. I particularly wanted to know which time would be best for viewing. In the end, I decided to join the tour at 2 PM, which had English announcements and seemed to fit my schedule. The tour captains were indeed professionals. They communicated with other boats and searched around, ultimately taking us to a spot where we could see the whales up close. I was pleasantly surprised; I didn't need to brace myself for disappointment. It was more about trusting the process rather than worrying! I was moved to see them up close. It was a satisfying tour.
初めてのホェールウオッチング!一度は観てみたいと思ってました。2月にマウイ島へ。
ちょうどシーズンということで、期待は大!
でもツアー時間と到着時間が微妙でいつ取ればいいのか。特にどの時間が見やすいのか。どうせなら見やすい時間に参加したいと思ったのですがよく解らずで…。結局は時間的に間に合いそうな英語アナウンスの午後2時からに参加しました。でもツアーキャプテン達はやはりプロでした。周りの船と情報交換しながらあちこちを探して、結果近くに見えるところまで連れて行ってくれました。あまりだったね…なんて覚悟はいりませんでした。心配するより信じろ!でしたね。近くで見れて感動しました。満足できるツアーでした。

I parked my car at a nearby free parking lot and walked a bit to check in at the counters of various companies (the Lahaina Cruise counter is the farthest from the free parking lot). Since I had already made the payment in advance, I just had to provide my name and sign in, which made the check-in process very easy!
Once on board, the guide shared various interesting facts about whales and provided services even before we spotted any. When the whales finally appeared, they would say, "They've come out in the direction of 〜 o'clock!" so I didn't miss anything at all. When I saw a whale jump right in front of me and got to see the beautiful island of Maui from the ocean, I truly felt that it was worth signing up for this experience.
The guide spoke entirely in English, but I found it wasn't too difficult to understand. If you're concerned, it seems you can also request a Japanese guide, so it might be worth considering.
It was a very enjoyable whale watching experience.
近くの無料駐車場に車を停めて、少し歩いたら見えてくる各会社のカウンターでチェックイン(ラハイナ・クルーズのカウンターは無料駐車場からは一番遠いところにあります)。
事前に支払いも済ませていたので、名前を伝えて記帳するだけでチェックインが終わり、とても楽でした!
いざ乗船するとガイドさんがクジラに関するいろいろな豆知識を教えてくれたり、クジラが見えないうちにもサービスをしてくれます。
いざクジラが現れると「〜時の方向に出てきたよ!」と伝えてくれて、見逃すことは一切なかったです。
目の前でジャンプを見られた時、沖から綺麗なマウイ島を見られた時は、本当に申し込んでよかったと思いました。
ガイドさんはもちろん全て英語でお話をしてくれますが、そこまで聞くのが難しいことはなかったです。
不安であれば日本語ガイドも申し込めるようなので、検討してみるといいかもしれません。
とても楽しいホエールウォッチングになりました。

The sign for Lahaina Cruise Company doesn't appear until quite close to the meeting point, making it very hard to find. The ticket booth, which looks like a small hut, is usually closed and only opens a few minutes before the tour starts, at which point you can finally see the company name above the window. The procedure for receiving tickets after all participants sign in is not mentioned, which is unhelpful. However, the content of the tour is truly wonderful; with years of experience, the guide quickly spots whales beneath the surface and announces their direction through the microphone. We were able to see an incredible number of whales, including three blowing water and some that raised their upper bodies above the surface for a while. The guide also provides explanations about whale ecology and geography in between sightings, making it a very satisfying tour if you understand English.
ラハイナクルーズカンパニーという看板が結構直前にならないと出ないので、集合場所が非常に分かりにくいです。小屋のようなチケット販売ブースで普段は閉まっており、ツアースタートの何十分か前にオープンすると窓の上に同社名がはじめて確認できます。そのブースで参加者全員記名の上、チケットを受け取るという手順も書かれていないため不親切です。ツアーの中身は大変素晴らしく、長年の勘で水面下のクジラを素早く見つけては何時の方向だとマイクでアナウンスしてくれます。親子3頭の潮吹きや上半身をしばらく水面上に出す仕草など、本当に飽きるほどたくさんのクジラを見ることができました。クジラの生態や地理的な説明も合間を縫ってしてくれるので、英語が理解できればとても満足のいくツアーです。

The guide was very kind and attentive. They provided chairs and had a telescope, allowing us to enjoy a wonderful night under a sky full of stars! If we had a bit more time, we could have enjoyed the restroom breaks and the supermarket more! The only reason I didn't rate it as the best was that it was just too cold that day. The next day, I heard the mountains were closed due to snow. In Maui, you can swim at the beach and see snow on the mountains.

I had several concerns about participating in the overseas tour, and this time was no different.
Will the pickup be on time? ← They arrived right on time.
Will the guide speak Japanese? ← The guide was a true Japanese person, haha.
Will I be able to use the restroom? ← There were breaks, and the restroom was relatively close.
Will I be warm enough with the cold-weather gear I brought? ← There were warm clothes and blankets available.
Will I suffer from oxygen deprivation? ← It was fine as we ascended while acclimatizing.
Regarding this tour, there were absolutely no issues.
Our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, was great at conversation and very knowledgeable. He answered questions outside of the tour accurately as well. It rained during the day, but it was clear above the clouds. During the stargazing, the wind was minimal, and we could see a perfect starry sky. We even saw shooting stars! The sushi we had for dinner was delicious, and the warm tea helped to warm us up.
I took various photos, but I believe seeing it with my own eyes is the best part of the tour. If you plan to go, make sure to book early as it fills up quickly.
Lastly, thank you for everything, Mr. Yamauchi! I look forward to seeing you again when I visit Maui! (*^^*) Date of participation: January 2019.

During my stay on Maui, I went on two boat trips. One departed at 12:00 and the other at 14:15. Both times, whales were playing nearby, making for a fulfilling cruise. This company offers lower prices than others, but drinks and snacks are charged separately. However, with so many whales appearing, there wasn't much time to eat or drink, so it wasn't an issue (I purchased drinks before boarding). There are also restrooms on board. It seems to be less crowded on weekdays, but on weekends or when luxury cruise ships are in port, the morning to afternoon trips were packed. In the afternoon, it was quite empty, allowing for a relaxing experience. Since this was my several times whale watching (both domestically and internationally), I had no problem with the English-only communication.
マウイ島滞在中、二回乗船しました。
12:00発と14:15発。
どちらも近くでクジラが遊んでくれて、充実のクルーズでした。
この会社は他社より値段が安い分、ドリンクやお菓子は有料ですが、これだけたくさんクジラが出てくると、飲食しているヒマはないので問題ないです。(乗船前に飲み物は購入しました)
船内にトイレもあります。
平日は空いているようですが、土日や、豪華客船が入っている日は朝~昼便はビッシリだったようです。
午後はガラガラでのんびり楽しめました。

I participated with my wife. It was a tour that we joined with high hopes for the magnificent panorama of Maui and the starry sky, but unfortunately, it rained heavily. We had a faint hope that the weather might change at the summit, but the rain continued, and we decided to head back. However, thanks to the warm hospitality of our guide, we were invited to a popular local Italian restaurant, and the authentic wood-fired pizza was truly delicious.
Additionally, the guide's stories were very enjoyable and educational, which captivated us. Although we didn't get to see the starry sky as we had hoped, this tour, which could have been just a disappointing memory, turned into a very memorable and enjoyable experience thanks to the guide's entertaining stories and kindness. I would like to join the starry sky tour again next time for a chance at redemption. Thank you very much for the wonderful memories.

Even if it rains down below, the summit at 3,055 meters often has clear skies with beautiful stars, but unfortunately, it seems we couldn't see the stars that day. Thank you for your kind words to the guide. I hope that next time we can see a sky full of stars!

This tour offers a good selection of time slots, which was great. The boat isn't very large, so if you're prone to seasickness, it's a good idea to take some medication. I participated in the early morning tour, and for a while, it seemed like we wouldn't see any whales. Just when I thought we might not see any today, we spotted one in the distance! Eventually, they appeared in various places; they weren't too close, but I was satisfied! The staff only spoke English, but they were kind. One downside is that the check-in location is hard to find. If it doesn't change in the future, it's the booth on the far right with your back to the town.

We were lucky that it was a beautiful day on the water. Everything was perfect! We saw so many whales we couldn't keep up with which side of the boat they were breaching on. Our "Captain Dan" was the most amazing host. He provided a lot of insight into the whales (their behaviour, etc), the surrounding area & history, the crew on the boat and even his own life. It wouldn't have been the same without him onboard. Thanks, "Lieutenant Dan"!! Riley was an excellent bar keep and equipment manager. I don't remember the names of the rest but all were so professional and accommodating. Snorkelling on the Molokini for a newbie like my wife was a breeze thanks to ALL of them.

I was a bit surprised that the transportation was a taxi, and I didn't realize it was for us right away.

The weather was nice, and the waves were calm, which felt great. I was very excited to see a whale for the first time. I heard that if it were a little later in the season, we could see even more. I requested a Japanese guide, and I was very pleased with the service. If it were only in English, the experience might have been only half as impactful. The guide was wonderful and also provided explanations about Maui, for which I am grateful. Please send my regards to the guide, T. I would highly recommend this experience.
天気がよく、波も静かで気持ちよかったです。初めてクジラを見れて大変感激しました。時期がもう少し後ならもっと見られるそうです。今回日本人のガイドさんをリクエストし対応して頂き大変よかったです。英語だけなら感動も半分くらいかもです。ガイドさんはすばらしい方でホエールウオィチング以外にもマウイの説明をして頂き感謝です。ガイドのTさんに宜しくお伝えください。はかにもおすすめしたいです。

Captain is so experienced, we found whales right after departing from the harbo. Nice crew and we enjoyed a lot. Must come during whale watching season in Maui. And remember bring sunglasses, hat, and light jacket.

From December to April, humpback whales come to the Hawaiian Islands, and while I saw them on Oahu, I thought Maui would be a better place to see them up close. I also signed up for the Trilogy, which is a catamaran, so I thought we might be able to see the whales closer to the water's surface. Although the tour was in English, it was fine for us, as we were the only Japanese participants. We were able to see the whales for quite a while, and one came right up to the front of the catamaran, which was very impressive. Additionally, the triangle area between Maui, Molokai, and Lanai is said to be shallow, making it a good spot for nurturing calves. It’s estimated that around 4,000 humpback whales come to the islands each month, so I highly recommend this season for whale watching.
12月から4月の間、ハワイ諸島沖にザトウクジラが来るということで、オアフ島でも見たのですが、マウイ島のほうが近くで見れそうなのとトリロジー号はカタマランなので水面近くでクジラがみられるかも?と思い申し込みをしました。英語のみなのですが、英語の話せない私たちで大丈夫でした。日本人も私たちだけでした。クジラはかなりの間見ることができ、一番近くでカタマランのすぐ前まで来てくれ、迫力満点でした。また、マウイ島、モロカイ島、ラナイ島のトライアングル地帯は地形的に浅いらしいので、子育てにはちょうどいいらしいです。月には4000頭のザトウクジラが来島するらしいので、これからのシーズンはおすすめです。

We live on Maui but decided to venture out to Lanai. This little ferry was great! I was able to book trip for 5 people fast online and confirm it within 15 minutes just one day ahead.
Weather was great and ride was smooth to Lanai. We even managed to see wails. On island we decided to stay longer and I was able to move our tickets to last ferry without any problems (there is a phone number on the tickets, they do pick up the phone fast). Ride back was in the dark but it still was fun, we got to see amazing starry sky!
