It was more fun than I expected. The quality is high. The dancing and fire performances are excellent. I think it's great that the audience participates and helps create the stage.
The duration might be a bit long, around three hours.
Alcohol is all-you-can-drink, but there's a long line for general participants to order. The VIP priority counter is empty, but it's clearly distinguished. However, this is Hawaii after all. Staff members come around to take orders. You can order for about $1 each time. You'd be missing out if you didn't know this. Feel free to order and drink as much as you like. It was a great time.
イヤー予想を上回る楽しさでした。
完成度が高いですね。
踊りやファイヤーダンスも最高です。
客が参加し一体となってステージを作り上げるので良いと思います。
時間は若干長めかな?正味3時間くらい。
アルコールは飲み放題ですが、一般参加の注文する場所は大行列。
優先VIP窓口はガラガラですが区別されています。
しかし、さすがハワイです。
席を回るスタッフが注文を取りにきてくれます。一人1回$1程でオーダー可能です。知らなきゃ損です。どしどし注文して飲んでください。
良い時間でした。。

Drinks good, food good. Main show started a 8 pm. They close down buffet pretty fast. We will do this again.

Since it was an English tour, there were only three of us Japanese participants. We were packed into a small bus to full capacity and set off. The male guide was friendly, taking pictures for us at the rest stop, but the shopping planned at Clar Lodge was canceled without any explanation. After watching the sunset from the summit, we were all dropped off at the dining location without any follow-up. We were just ushered into the restaurant, where our seats were taken by other tour participants, leaving us feeling excluded.
I joined the English tour knowing what to expect, and I didn't anticipate the detailed support typical of Japanese tours, but it didn't turn out to be a very good experience, which is disappointing.
英語のツアーということで、日本人参加者は私たち3人のみ。
小型のバスに満員状態で詰め込まれ出発。
ガイドの男性は休憩場所で写真撮ってくれたりとフレンドリーでしたが、工程に入っていたクラロッジでのショッピングもなんの説明もないまま無しになり山頂で夕日をみたあと、食事の場所で全員バスを下ろされ、何もフォローないまま、レストランに入れられ、座席も他のツアー参加者に占領され、爪弾き状態に…
英語ツアーとわかって参加し、日本ツアーの細やかなフォローを期待して行ったわけではないですが、あまりいい思い出にならず、残念でした

The sunset sail was very good, better than others I've done. Definitely wasn't live music and booking online doesn't allow for a kamaʻāina discount, once I got to the front desk I was told they did offer 25% but I couldn't get it since there wasn't a way to do it online.. 5 of us went so perhaps someone could figure that out on your end?
Otherwise the excursion itself was great even saw doplhins swim along the boat!
Aloha! We’re stoked you enjoyed your sail with us! You didn’t book the Sunset Live Music trip, hence the reason there was no live music. Also we are unable to discount a 3rd party booking but we’d be happy to take care of you next time as Kama’aina booking direct. Mahalo!

My husband and I took this cruise last Friday night . It was the perfect way to end our stay in Maui. We were staying at a condo right next to the harbor where the boat departed, so super convenient for us. Some people were caught in a lot of traffic coming from Lahaina that night and, although the ship waited for a while still didn’t make it. This was unfortunate for those people because they missed out on a really great experience. It was good for us because there was only half the number of people aboard...more room to move around,. It was like a private excursion l The staff was top notch,super attentive, the entertainment wonderful.The crew puts on a hula show, the food and drinks were excellent. Had my Hawaii drink all night, lava flow. Sunsets and views amazing!!

The location of the luau was perfect for us because it was close. The resort itself is breathtaking and immaculate. We were a party of 12 with 2 young kids and were seated right away. There were several activities for everyone before it got started. We took tons of pictures, most of them being the beautiful sunset. They singing, dancing and overall production was very entertaining. The delicious food and open bar were the icing on the cake. Overall, everyone in our party had a great time.

It was a very satisfying activity.
【Experience Details】
We had plenty of time to see fish and turtles at two spots. On the way there, we encountered a pod of dolphins and even saw them spin. At each spot, we saw many fish, and we were able to see six turtles and an octopus as well. However, since I participated at the beginning of July, there were some areas where the water was a bit cold. This might have been due to a typhoon approaching a few days later.
On the way back, it was a great experience to enjoy a hearty barbecue chicken while sailing.
【Others】
We were the only Japanese couple, but the staff were all cheerful and friendly sea men and women who interacted with us warmly. The other participants were mainly families and couples. The explanations in English were delivered quite quickly, so honestly, it was hard for me to catch everything, but I think it’s fine as long as you mimic those around you (laughs). I was worried on the day of the activity because I completely forgot about the reconfirmation phone call the day before, but it turned out to be okay.
Also, I gave a tip of $20 to one person when disembarking (the others around me did the same).
Overall, it was a very satisfying activity.
とても満足のアクティビティでした。
【体験内容】
スポット2箇所でたっぷりの時間で魚や亀を見ることができました。
行きの船ではイルカの群れに出会い、スピンも見れました。
スポット各々で、たくさんの魚を見れ、亀も6匹、タコも見ることができました。
一方、7月頭の参加でしたが、少し水が冷たい箇所もありました。数日後に台風が迫っていたことが理由かもしれません。
帰りはセーリングで帰りながらボリューミーな鶏肉のバーベキューを食べるのも良い体験でした。
【その他】
日本人は我々夫婦のみでしたが、スタッフは皆海の男&女で爽やかに明るい方々で、気さくに接ししていただきました。
我々の他はご家族やカップルが中心でした。
説明など英語はかなりスピーディに話されるので、得意でないわたしには正直聞き取るのは無理でしたが、基本周りの真似をしていれば大丈夫かと思います(笑)
前日リコンファームで電話ということでしたが、完全に忘れており当日心配しておりましたが、大丈夫でした。
また、チップは、下船時にお一人に20ドルをお渡ししました(周囲の方も同様な形でした)
総じて大満足のアクティビティでした。

A few days before our arrival, it had snowed on Maui, and on the day of the luau, there was quite heavy rain, leading us to think it might be canceled. However, it stopped for a while, so the event went ahead. Unfortunately, it started pouring again, and they handed out rain ponchos. The food ended up getting soaked, and it was quite cold, making it uncomfortable to sit for long periods. Many guests left early. The performers' voices also seemed to tremble at times... While we can't control the weather, overall, it wasn't a show that matched the price.
到着数日前には雪の降ったマウイ島、ルアウ当日も結構強い雨でキャンセルになるかと思いきや、一時止んだのでそのまま決行になりました。でも途中からは結構な降りでビニールカッパが配られましたが、料理はびしょぬれでかなり寒く座っているのがつらい感じになり、中座するゲストも相当数いました。出演者の歌声も時々震えてる感じで・・・天気はコントロールできないとは言っても、総合的に見て価格に見合うショーではありませんでした。

I was visiting Maui for a week and a cruise sounded like a great experience for my trip. The ship itself is very old and outdated, the seats are very snug and you sit across from a couple that you do not know. Thankfully we sat across from two very nice and friendly people. I had the roasted chicken and it was dry. The drinks were not good, very watered down and didn’t taste as they should have. Well over priced and do not recommend.

We were picked up at our resort within one minute of the scheduled time in a brand new very comfortable tour bus and the guide Henry immediately set a wonderful tone for the tour. Our entire time together his comedic delivery was flawless but he mixes it with very interesting facts about Maui history and culture which really kept our interest. His content and delivery was perfect and completed the tour rather than overpowered it; a perfect mix.
The tour stops were excellent in timing and again, Henry's information really made the difference. Of course, once we got towards the top his focus was on safety but not overpowering. He's also an excellent photographer!
The scenery of the tour by itself is breathtaking but combined with Henry's expertise it was truly memorable.

It was my first time going to the Haleakalā sunset, and I was very moved by the sunset.
The guide only spoke English, so there were a few parts that were a bit difficult to understand, but I enjoyed it without any problems.
The food was delicious.
I think it would have been even better if I had done more research beforehand.
