All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Maui

The Haleakala National Park possesses a unique landscape and a variety of species only found there.
All the stops we made on our way up were worth it, however, our guide told us that the restaurant and visitor's center were not operating because of a lack of personnel, so it'd be nicer to have these options available.
According to the description of the tour, we were supposed to get back to our pick-up place/hotel after 10 pm but we got back at 8:30 pm. I was expecting to do some stargazing up there in the mountain but there was no time, our guide asked us to be back n the van at 6:45 pm...so this is was I liked the least!!
Other than that, our guide was very polite and helpful, and he gave us a lot of information about the places we were visiting.

I couldn’t experience more, than I had on our boat trip to Lanai
It’s perfect size of boat if you want to see views without other passengers heads in front of you, actually hear interesting and fun stories from captain and feel close to water.
We saw so many dolphins, colorful fish, turtles and learned a lot about these islands. As a bonus I got stung by a jelly fish, but I’ll take it as a very unique experience lol
If you’re very picky about food, bring your own, but for me it wasn’t important at that moment. They have different drinks and water, so nothing to worry about.
Both captains are super friendly and knew what they do.
Thank you guys!

Yoshi was a great tour guide! He made us feel like he was so happy to share the experience with us. He is very kind and thoughtful and definitely knows all about the national park and the island itself along with all the stars and planets he shows you through his telescope. The views of the sky through the telescope were awesome. Definitely an experience we will never forget! A must do when visiting Maui.

Winter clothes were provided but bring a hat or extra gloves if you get cold easily. Yoshi did a great job of showing us the stars and we saw Saturn too! He even had Krispy Kremes and hot drinks!

The staff were so awesome, helping us with everything

Great guide and tour. Would definitely recommend.

We were the only Japanese participants on the English tour, but the staff were friendly, which eased our worries and allowed us to enjoy the experience. I was also concerned about seasickness, but the boat didn't sway as much as I had anticipated. The food was delicious. It would have been even better if the meeting and disbanding locations were closer to the Kaanapali area, as having transportation included would have been ideal.

英語のツアーで日本人は私達親子だけでしたが、スタッフの皆さんがフレンドリーで、不安は無くなり楽しめました。船酔いも心配していましたが、予想していたほど揺れなかったです。食事は美味しかったです。集合、解散場所がカアナパリ地区から遠かったので、送迎付きだと尚良かったです。

We were totally impressed with the crew. We chose to be picked up at our resort which was much better than trying to drive to dock and find a parking place and then drink during cruise and drive home.
Alii Nui was a great craft, smooth sailing and comfortable.
Choices of tastes and drinks were fine. Foods for the "Feast" were outstanding, including roast beef sliced as you requested, crab cakes, pork ribs, and more.
Sunset was outlined by clouds and then the moon came up. WOW.

Bruce and Kendra were amazing guides! We loved our Lana’i tour, we are so glad we did it. It was great learning about the history and seeing more of the island than just the city and beach. We’d highly recommend this tour and we have told everyone we have encountered about it!

I love it everything in the tour, definitely is a dream come true!! So gorgeous and the pictures are amazing. This is that kind of experience which everyone have to do it! Thank you so much

We had such a great time and felt well taken care of on this tour. Would recommend to everyone I know. We went with 2 kids (9 and 11) and both thought it was great too.

This sunset cruise was great! They had a professional photographer on the boat to take pics and they turned out fantastic!! There were a few things that they could work on: indicating where we're meeting before take off with a sign or employee, we left about 15-20 minutes late, and they only offered 2-4 small drinks each. However, it was a beautiful ride and we did true sailing the whole time. I did another sunset cruise earlier in the week and I preferred that company a little more TBH. But, still a wonderful experience that I would do again!

The crew on the Trilogy IV were unbelievably accommodating and welcome. The service on the ship and on the beach was unparalleled. Every part of the trip was an absolute blast from the snorkeling, the beach, and a last minute swim party to top off the ride. The Captain truely knows how to host a party; just when you thought the service couldn’t get any better, he would come by and clean your sunglasses.

If you’re debating between a trip to Molokini Crater or this trip to Lana’i, trust me; these guys put every other excursion to shame.

It was a great day boat trip to Lanai, and we saw dolphins. We enjoyed the snorkeling and swimming. The crew was professional and fun, and we were taken care of. In addition, the lunch was delicious, and they made sure had enough to eat. This is a trip that we will do again, and we highly recommend it for all.

Wayne is awesome! Smooth driver and insanely knowledgeable. Not going to lie, I was tempted to sleep in and miss the tour but I’m glad I didn’t. You’re able to catch some z’s on the way and on on the way back.10 out of 5 star!. Highly recommend

The crew was very nice and helpful and kept our glasses full. Food was excellent as well. Weather was great, although not much wind to put the sails out. Recommended A++

The tour is probably the best way to see Lana’i. Our tour guide was very personable; he provided snacks and water, and even had a packet of pictures of the sites we saw and then some that we could take home with us. He went above and beyond. I was surprised how many people take the ferry to Lana’i for the day but have no plan for what they are going to do once they get there. We gave a few of them a ride to the only town on the island, which cost us a little bit of time. Highly recommend taking the tour vs. renting a keep and doing it yourself, since many of the roads that contain key sites are not paved.

This luau was very good! Food was delicious! Drinks were weak. The show was fabulous!! Included audience in learning the hula! Dancers were great, good story, and the fire show at end was awesome!! Would do again!

Overall the onboarding was smooth, there were clear instructions sent over email, there were enough (paid but cheap) parking spots at harbor. The boat was quipped and left on time. We all were free to roam on boat + take pick where needed as long as 3 point of contacts were maintained all the times.

They have plenty of noodles, snorkel mask cleaning gel. If you want life vests, carry yours. They even had prescription mask(mine was -5) and it made overall experience much better. The day we did tour, there weren't many variety of fishes, may be because it was cloudy. Food was good and served in buffet style.

After spending ~1hr at Molokini, the boat went to Turtle Town, where there were fishes and beautiful reef. They even let us jump from boat :)

It's been 24 years since my last visit to Maui. Last time, I drove to the summit of Haleakalā in a rental car, but this time I wanted to see the starry sky, so I joined a tour. We were picked up at the hotel at 3 PM, and our charismatic guide, Yamapi, led a group of five, including us.

On the way, we stopped to buy Krispy Kreme donuts (included in the tour price) and award-winning poke from Foodland before heading to the summit! We took breaks to prevent altitude sickness.

At the summit, we watched the sunset, enjoyed the poke we had just bought, and then it was finally time for stargazing. Words can't describe it. The Milky Way was clearly visible, and the sky was filled with stars. We even saw shooting stars.

The smartphone photography class for capturing the sunset and starry sky, along with all the experiences at the summit, made for a truly satisfying tour, all thanks to the wonderful personality of our guide, Yamapi. I was most surprised to learn that Yamapi was the former manager of Southern All Stars, as I've been a fan since their debut... haha.

Next time, I want to bring my kids along, so the whole family will participate. I'm already looking forward to reuniting with Yamapi. Thank you so much, Yamapi!

24年ぶりのマウイ。前回はレンタカーでハレアカラ山頂へ登りましたが、今回は満天の星空を見たく、ツアーに参加しました。15時ホテルピックアップ。私たちを含めて5名をカリスマガイドのヤマピーさんが案内してくれました。
途中、クリスピードーナツ(ツアー代金に含まれています)とフードランドで賞を取ったこともあるポキを購入し、山頂へ！(高山病予防のために休憩をとりながらです)
山頂では夕陽を見てから、先程買ったポキを食べてゆっくりした後、いよいよ星空観賞。これはもう言葉には出来ません。天の川もクッキリと見え、満天の星空です。流れ星も見ることができました。
夕陽と星空のスマホでの撮影教室、山頂での演出すべてが大満足のツアーでしたが、それもすべてガイドのヤマピーさんの素晴らしい人柄のなせる技だと感じました。
ヤマピーさんがサザンオールスターズの元マネージャーというのが、デビュー当時からのサザンファンである私にとっては一番びっくりでしたが…笑
次回は子供達にも見せてやりたいので家族全員で参加します。ヤマピーさんと再会するのが今から楽しみです。
ヤマピーさん本当にありがとうございました！

Once you get past all the sign in and sign up stuff it was a breeze, the crew was pleasant and organized the boat was very clean. Totally doing it again!!!

Good food, beautiful views, great staff, smooth sailing!

Great experience with a nice boat host. The food was good and drinks okay.

We had an amazing time, I was blown away by the friendly service. Dancers were amazing! I even danced on the stage! One of my dreams came true! If you plan to visit Maui! This is a must do Luau at this place is the best! Locals ask us if we’re going to a Luau and when we told them where we had our reservation. They all say it the best and it was

I have been on a submarine for a tour, but never road on a submarine. Our tour saw sharks and a spotted sting ray and an array of fish. It was such a cool and different experience. I hope to return during whale season and do this again.

Great experience! Highly recommend!
The crew was very professional, they checked to see if you needed anything regularly. The food was great as well.

There’s always a chance when scheduling a tour that the weather will not cooperate. Our trip was that time for the sunset at Haleakala. That was a little disappointing, but Yoshikazu more than made up for it with the stargazing. He is so knowledgeable of the stars and has a great telescope. Because it was a new moon night, we were even able to see the rings around Saturn! There were 7 of us on this tour, so he was more than willing to help with pictures for everyone. We were worried about how cold it gets up on top, but winter coats and lap blankets were included. We really enjoyed this trip!

My family had a great time snorkeling. The staff was very supportive, friendly and helpful. Service was all quick, on time. I definitely will book with you guys again.

This was great fun. The food was nice the atmosphere was lovely and the entertainment was awesome. Loved the storyline and all the dancers and entertainers were really good . A great night out

Sarah Yadao as our guide - she is native Hawaiin and her passion for her country shown through all of the hike. We got so see natural vegetation and enjoy tasting some of he plants and fruits and she was very knowledgable and shared this with us. So we didn’t just hike we explored and forages a little. Opportunities to swim in a waterfall or two and jump if we had the courage. There were pre teens in our group and us oldies and she managed to make us all feel welcome and at ease.
Fantastic guide fantastic journey and fantastic experience too. My husband and I are In our 50s and 60s and not the fittest and we managed really well.
