Molokini Island had high visibility. If I could wish for anything, I would have liked to see a greater variety of fish. At the second spot, I was able to see turtles twice. There were people gathered around the turtles, but I was lucky enough to spot them first. It was great that we could use sunscreen for free. However, you really need to apply it all over, or you will get seriously burned, haha. By the way, it says the parking is free, but it actually cost $3.
モロキニ島は透明度が高かったです。欲を言えばもう少し色々な種類の魚が見たかったです。
ふたつめのポイントでは亀を2回見れました。亀の周りに人が集まっていましたが運良く先に見つけることが出来ました。
日焼け止めを無料で使えたのが良かったです。でも全身くまなく塗らないとものすごい焼けます笑
ちなみに駐車場は無料と書いてありますが、3ドルかかりました。

I stayed at the Kaanapali Beach Club and received an email about a meeting point at the roundabout off of Kaanapali Shores Place. I waited at the rotary in front of the lobby and in front of the hotel, but no car came. I couldn't reach the main contact number, but when I called the reconfirmation number, I was able to get through. I was told that the bus had already passed. They said they would check with the driver to see if he could come back, and it seemed like it would be fine. However, later I received a call saying that they could not come back and that I could not join the tour. They mentioned that they would issue a refund, which I accepted, but when I checked later that same day out of concern, the person who promised the refund did not come to confirm. In the end, I contacted Veltra, and they were able to confirm things, but the local tour company could not verify the facts until the end. Ultimately, the refund was made thanks to Veltra's assistance. There are issues with the local tour company's response. For those who will participate in the future, it is necessary to confirm the meeting point with the hotel and to ensure that you have a contact number for the local tour company that you can reach in case of emergencies.

という集合場所をメールされました。ロビー前のロータリーと、ホテル手前で待っていましたが、車は来ませんでした。
代表番号にかけても繋がらず、その後、リコンファームの番号にかけると繋がりました。
既にバスは過ぎたとのこと。ドライバーに戻れるか確認する、たぶん大丈夫だろうということになりました。
しかし、その後、もう戻れない、ツアーには参加できないという電話がありました。返金はするから、という話で納得しましたが、同日中に不安になり確認すると、返金すると約束した担当は確認で来ませんでした。
結局ベルトラさんに連絡し、確認していただきましたが、最後まで現地のツアー会社は事実を確認できませんでした。結局返金されることになったのは、ベルトラさんの対応のおかげです。現地のツアー会社の対応には問題があります。
これから参加される方には、合流場所をホテルにも確認していただき、緊急時には必ず連絡取れる電話番号を現地ツアー会社に確認する必要があります。

I participated with children from both lower and upper elementary school grades. There were various sizes of life jackets, wetsuits, and floating devices that can be worn around the waist, which made it safe and enjoyable. The ocean was, of course, beautiful and amazing, but there was also a slide from a high position on the boat that allowed the kids to jump into the sea, making it the most fun place of this trip for them. The hamburgers we had for lunch were also very delicious. The ocean was deep, beautiful, and truly moving.
小学校低学年と高学年の子どもと参加しました。子どもサイズのライフジャケットやウェットスーツ、腰回りに装着する浮き具など色々と揃っていて安心して楽しめました。海の中ももちろん綺麗で最高ですが、船の高い位置から海へザブーンと入れる滑り台があったりと、子ども達は今回の旅で一番楽しかった場所になったみたいです。昼食のハンバーガーもとても美味しかったです。
海、深くて綺麗で感動です。

The wind was strong, so we didn't go to Molokini Island and instead did snorkeling at two other spots. There were few fish, and we did see some sea turtles, but there were too many people, which made it a bit disappointing.

We toured with Kane who was knowledgeable and attentive. Felt safe driving up, and he made sure the group stayed together. Only thing is, since they feed us pastries when we first get to the lounge. I didn't really feel up to breakfast because it was a long morning and wanted to go back to the resort and rest. The experience alone was amazing, far more than I expected. I recommend booking this trip.

I found this place while searching for a hula show in the Wailea area, so I made a reservation. There is no shuttle service, so I think it would be convenient to stay at the Marriott or another hotel in the Wailea area. I reserved a premium seat, but there was a long line at the reception, and since the sun hadn't set yet, it was quite hot. The premium seats were essentially in the second row from the front, with ten people sharing a round table. The show was very visible. There were three long tables set up with the exact same buffet menu, and people in priority seating were served first with one plate. Under the starry sky, I enjoyed a powerful luau and elegant hula.
ワイレア地区でフラのショーを探していたらこちらがありましたので申し込みました。送迎はないのでマリオットに泊まるかまたはワイレア地区のホテルからならば便利だと思います。プレミアム席を予約したのですがその前の受付で長い行列が出来ており、まだ太陽も沈んでなかったのでかなり暑かったです。プレミアム席は実質前から2列目、丸テーブルに10人の相席です。ショーはよく見えました。ブュッフェは全く同じメニューが乗った長テーブルが3列用意されていて優先席の人からワンプレートに盛っていく形でした。星空の下、迫力あるルアウと優雅なフラで楽しめました。

The crew were outstanding!! Jason, the captain of the boat was very interactive with the kids regarding the operation of the boat. Jason and Lindsey were very good with the number of people and keeping the bar operating at a very good pace. I would suppose my only issue is that there aren’t any real tables to sit and eat. You need to find a place to enjoy the food, which by the way is very good. Overall, was worth the cost and would take this trip again. Thank you “Pride of Maui”

I could see Molokini Island from the airplane and from Wailea. When I got closer, I was surprised at how much larger it was than I imagined! Until then, the rocking on the boat and the waves while snorkeling made me feel a bit nauseous... The ocean was beautiful, but I couldn't fully enjoy it... On other overseas tours, they had motion sickness medication available on the boat or before boarding, but this tour didn't have any... I should have prepared my own.

The tour day was blessed with good weather, and since it was close to a new moon, there was no moonlight at all, allowing us to see countless stars like a natural planetarium. The sunset was truly beautiful, with a sea of clouds below, and I was overwhelmed by the starry sky.
I am very grateful to our tour guide, Yamapi. He took great care of us, showed us various stars through the telescope, and the lectures were enjoyable! It felt like going back to elementary school. I felt that the company, including Yamapi, genuinely wants participants to enjoy the tour with thoughtful consideration and care. I would love to join this tour again! Thank you very much!

I had an incredible time at The Maui Gold Pineapple Farm Tastiing Tour. To be honest, the only reason I went in the tour was to take pictures of pineapples. However, by the end of the tour, I learned so much about Pineapples. I learned when to pick the pineapples, what colors are the sweetest, the various parts of the pineapples, how to cut a pineapple and so much more. It was time well spent and yes, I took incredible pictures! The tour guide was also the best. He made the tour a lot of fun and definitely knew his material. The tour is fun for the entire family.

My first time on Lanai Island, and it's truly a relaxing and quiet place, unlike other islands. The people are kind, and the Garden of the Gods was nice, but the planned visits to Hulopoe Bay and the ancient petroglyphs didn’t happen. The weather was a bit cloudy that day, which was a bit disappointing.

Despite it being my first snorkeling experience, I was able to see several sea turtles, which made me very satisfied! I felt inspired to try snorkeling in various oceans in the future. The guide, Kana, was very kind and attentive, making it easy for me to enjoy the experience even as a beginner. The casual conversations about Maui in Japanese were also very comforting! However, the motion sickness medication I bought at a supermarket in Maui didn't work very well, so if you're prone to seasickness, it might be better to bring stronger medication like Aneron from Japan.
初シュノーケリングにも関わらず念願のウミガメを何匹も見ることができ大満足です!
今後も色んな海でシュノーケリングしてみたいな〜と思えました。
ガイドのkanaさんが懇切丁寧に対応してくださるので、初めてでも安心して楽しめました。
マウイの雑談も日本語でばりばりにしてくださり、心安らぎます!
ただ、マウイのスーパーで買った船酔い(motion sickness)の薬があまり効かなかったので、船酔いに弱い方は日本でアネロン等強めのお薬を持っていった方がよいかもしれません。
