I booked thinking I would be going to Molokini Island. It's an afternoon tour. However, I ended up at a rocky area on Maui, about 20 minutes from the port. I thought we would go to Molokini Island, but it turned out this was the end of the tour. There were some corals, but the main inhabitants were just black triggerfish. It seemed like this was the so-called Coral Garden. The title of the tour was misleading.
モロキニ島に行くものと思って予約しました。午後スタートのコースです
でも、ついたのは、港から20分くらいのマウイ島の岩場でした。
ここからモロキニ島に行くと思ったら ココで終わりだって
サンゴがそこそこありましたが、いっぱいいるのは、黒いモンガラばっかり
ここが、コーラルガーデンってところのようでした。
ツアーのタイトルがまぎらわしい

Hawaii is perfect for snorkeling! I have done it many times before, but I have never had a chance to get so close to sea creatures. Molokini Island is a moon shaped underwater volcano crater and it is one of the most famous snorkeling destinations in Hawaii. Hawaiians take good care of their ocean and have many rules to obey in it and one of them in not to touch anything in the water, which I just loved, you can get as close as possible but still have to respect animals. It is very nice to see that animals are totally relaxed here and would really come close to you if you dont attempt to jump on them. We had an amazing team, we had 2 stops for snorkling and the experience was just magical. Maybe you should consider to take a heli tour around there as well, as the views from above are just amazing and give you a real chance to enjoy the moon shape of the island! I twas a fantastic tour and I totally recommend everyone to get on it!

Yam P was very good at talking and it was fun the whole time, but unfortunately, we couldn't see the sunset due to bad weather. I want to try again, but I wonder when I can go... That was the only disappointing part. It was nice to stop by the Claw Lodge, visit Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, and go to the supermarket as well. I'm not sure if the starry sky was affected by the weather, but it wasn't that impressive... just as I expected. I've participated in a similar sunset and starry sky tour at Kilauea Volcano on the Big Island, and that one was definitely more beautiful and moving. If I get the chance to go again, I might want to try for a redo. The guide, Yam P, was really great, so I would like to request him again!
山Pさんはとても話し上手でずっと楽しくて良かったのですが、肝心のサンセット、天候が悪く見れませんでした。またリベンジしたいのですが、いつ行けるのやらです。。。そこだけが残念でした。途中クラロッジに寄ったり、クリスピークリームドーナツに寄ったり、スーパーにも行けて良かったです。星空は天候のせいなのかは分かりませんが・・・感動はさほどで。。。思った通りでした。ハワイ島のキラウェア火山で同じようなサンセット&星空ツアーに参加したことがありますが、そちらの方が断然綺麗で感動しましたよ。また行けるときがあればリベンジしようかな。ガイドの山Pさんはすごく良かったのでまたお願いしたいです!!

The dinner cruise was really fun and relaxing. As soon as you get on you have drinks available and the staff are really nice. The food selection was okay, nothing too spectacular. The drinks were okay as well. We got a Mai tai when we left the port and we also were given 2 more drinks throughout the cruise. It was a beautiful cruise and the sunset was gorgeous.

It is certainly a beautiful place, but not to the extent of being the best. Usually, I don't have much trouble with English, but I could hardly understand the English of this guide. Also, while we were in the car, he kept talking endlessly like Ichiro Furudate, but I would have appreciated a little bit of quiet time as well.
確かに美しい所だけれど、最高、という程でも無い。
普段、英語でそれほど困らないのだが、このガイドの方の英語は全く、といって良い程聞き取れなかった。また、車に乗っている間、古舘 伊知郎のように、延々としゃべり続けていたが、すこし静寂の時間も欲しかった。

Snorkel in comfort and be treated like royalty. Huge boat, plenty of room for everyone. A place to upstairs to get sun or a place downstairs to shade yourself. Clean restrooms on board. Place to change out of those wet clothes. Everything available from snorkel gear, wet suits and cameras! Lots of delicious food. Just fabulous.

Fortunately, a Japanese guide welcomed us. We received canned juice and snacks.
Although we mostly saw whales from a distance, we were able to see a few up close. At one point, a whale splashed right next to the boat, which was thrilling.
There were several whale watching companies at Lahaina Harbor. Since it was within walking distance from our hotel, I checked the location of the counter in advance while taking a stroll, so we were able to find it easily on the day of the tour.
Seeing Maui from the sea was also a wonderful memory.
ラッキーなことに日本人ガイドさんが出迎えてくださいました。
缶ジュースとスナックをいただきました。
クジラは遠目が多かったが、何頭か見ることができました。
一度だけ船のすぐ横でしぶきをあげてくれて興奮しました。
ラハイナ港にはホエールウォッチングの会社がいくつもありました。
滞在ホテルから港まで徒歩圏だったので、事前に散歩がてら
カウンターの場所を確認しておいたので、当日は迷わず行けました。

After a considerable delay getting cruise ship clearance from US customs and all passengers being able to leave ship to connect with relevant Shore tours - finally able to catch up with Gus our tour driver. VELTRA and Gus so understanding re the delays and adjusted our Tour accordingly to maximise our time on island. Really appreciated. In the end we had a great day and got to see most of Road to Hanna. Got to appreciate true beauty of the countryside with good and relevant commentary and time spent at relevant places of interest. Banana bread was good too!!
Hi Wolfgang! What a great surprise! Thank you for the awesome review! We too appreciate your flexibility and understanding. Immigration and customs almost never happens in Maui.

Larry the tour guide talked way to much. He pointed out every leaf and flower we passed by and then when he started talking about his personal life half way through the tour i really just wanted to get off somewhere. It would have been nice to be able to talk to my husband about the things we seen and point out to each other but Larry was talking so loud we couldn't even here each other. And it wasn't just us that didn't like not being able to talk to each other most other couples sitting near us thought the same. But some of the information we hears about was interesting but most was just nonsense . And also would have been nice to know that we couldn't go swimming. We and alot of other couples wore their swim suits under our clothes and if we would have known that we weren't going swimming we would have wore more comfortable clothing for that long ride. Next time instead of a tour we will take the road to haha on our own in a rental car.

The first stop where the boat docked was at the center of a crescent-shaped island, where we snorkeled. The sea was incredibly beautiful, and we saw many tropical fish.
At the second stop, we were able to see a large sea turtle up close. Both times, we had plenty of time to relax and float around in the sea.
Breakfast, lunch, and alcoholic drinks were provided, and the food service was satisfying. There were three types of local beer from Maui. There were also cocktails available. All-you-can-drink! The beer after playing in the sea was delicious, a delight for beer lovers.
It seemed that there were a total of 140 participants on the same boat, but there were only us and one other family as Japanese participants. The Japanese female guide was polite and taught us various things, and she was also very approachable, which was really nice.
船が止まる一箇所目、三日月の形の島の中身の部分で、まずシュノーケル。とてもきれいな海で、南国の魚をたくさん見れました。
二箇所目で、大きいウミガメを近くで見れました。

This hike takes you through the rainforest side of Maui. Our guide, Sarah, was very knowledgeable. She was able to answer our questions about the plants and animals along our hike. The waterfalls were beautiful. The jumps into the pools were a lot of fun and the guides gave good instruction on jumping which made me feel confident. The food was substantial for the duration of the hike. We were provided bananas and pineapple, both which were delicious. I had the peanut butter and jelly sandwich, which was hearty for a PB&J. My husband had the turkey sandwich, and the slice of turkey was surprisingly thick making for a filling meal. Take advantage of the bug spray they provide. My husband didn't get bit, while I, not being as diligent with coverage, got a few bites. This was the last activity we decided to add to our itinerary and it turned out to be our favorite tour of our vacation.

The Pride of Maui Molokini Snorkel Cruise was a great snorkel package. There were two snorkel locations, provided meal, drinks, miscellaneous items available to use or rent (see below), and the information from the optional 5-minute class gave some useful tips for the subsequent snorkeling we later did on our own on our trip.
The waters by Molokini were so clear, it was unbelievable how far through the water you can see. Turtle Town waters were less clear than Molokini but had more varied sea life. Whales were breaching along our path to the crater.
I wasn't expecting much from the barbecue but it was surprisingly tasty and filling. They offered neoprene suits to rent. A variety of underwater camera and camera accessories could be rented. Waist floatation and noodles were available for use. Environmentally-friendly sunscreen was also provided. There was a life guard nearby who would let you know when a turtle was in the area at Turtle Town. The slide on the boat was also fun.

The Old Lahaina Luau was a wonderful addition to our Maui honeymoon itinerary. The evening encompassed many of the Hawaiian traditions we hoped to experience while visiting. The food was excellent and there were plenty of dishes to choose from. There were also a good amount of drink options. The entertainment was fantastic. There were so many small details that made the evening even more special. We also appreciated the banana bread we were gifted at the end of the night. We had it for a late night snack a couple of nights after the event and it still tasted yummy. The service from the staff was friendly. We parked in the overflow lot which was a convenient location from the luau. We recommend this luau.

We participated as a family of four, and we were extremely satisfied with our half-day tour, thanks to our guide, Yamauchi (Yama-chan). At the Krispy Kreme store where we gathered, Yama-chan's excellent talk created a sense of camaraderie among the participants. To acclimatize to the altitude, we aimed for 3055 meters while taking breaks. On the way, when we stopped at a supermarket to buy sushi for dinner, I cleverly got Kona coffee at a discount using Yama-chan's card. (When I got home and drank it, it turned out to be delicious coffee!)
Yama-chan's talk in the car was entertaining, and I kept saying "Wow!" at the stories I was hearing for the first time. After witnessing a magnificent sunset, we were treated to a sky full of stars! Everyone was captivated by the detailed explanations using a laser pointer. Did you know that the Big Dipper actually has eight stars? This tour was not only about the beauty of nature but also about the charm of Yama-chan, who is full of humanity. My whole family wants to visit Yama-chan again.
家族4人で参加、もう何といっても山内さん(山ちゃん)のガイドに大満足の半日でした。最初に集合したクリスピードーナッツの店でツアー参加者の紹介、山ちゃんの絶妙なトークで連帯感が生まれました。気圧に慣らす為、休憩を取りながら3055mを目指します。途中スーパーで夕食のお寿司を買う時、私はちゃっかりコナコーヒーを山ちゃんのカードでディスカウントして貰って調達しました。(帰って飲んだら、これが大当たり!の美味しいコーヒーでした。)
車内での山ちゃんのトークが面白く、初めて聞く話に「へぇ~」の連発。素晴らしい日没を見た後の満天の星!!レーザーポインターを使ったマニアックな解説にみんな釘付けでした。北斗七星はホントは八星ですって!自然の素晴らしさは勿論人間味溢れる山ちゃんの魅力にはまったツアーでした。家族全員また山ちゃんに会いに行きたいです。
