All Reviews for For 8 Year Olds

We had a wonderful time! The food was good, atmosphere perfect! The performance was better this time than the last time! We never tired of it!

We were a group of 6 2 couples and 2 friends. It was very nice and great for us couples but the friends felt a little left out since the music was very lovey dovey. But other than that the food was good and we got a whale show!

Awesome adventure, Larry was great! He knew so much about the area and the people that live there. Larry answered our questions as best as he could. He told us funny stories, history and folk lore about the plants and land formations as we came upon them. He was entertaining and we felt safe and comfortable with him at the wheel. We had quite a few times where we could get out and take pictures or explore the area at our many stops during the day. Our lunch was delicious. It was a great opportunity to get to know our fellow travelers while taking in the scenery.

Aloha. I went out with Captain Charlene, Ana, Juan, and Jesse... this was my all time favorite crew and boat experience ever as far as service and comfortability. This crew was Real ... really caring and open hearted... I loved the Snuba, loved seeing the Whales and Molokini, the Aloha burger was onolicious and the ride was smooth and easygoing. Mahalo nui* looking forward to the next Maui Magic trip : ) Aloha

Ferry ride included whale watching going and coming. The tour guide was excellent as a long time resident who knew every corner of lanai. Best way to spend a day. This was our first trip to this island.

Beautiful setting
Gifted performers
Friendly staff
Mediocre food
Could not see the stage from my seat - had to stand in back to get photos.

Pleasant and informative venue. I went with a lifelong friend of mine and we enjoyed every moment of it. All of the displays were well thought out and enjoyable. I bought the CD so I could review it when I get home and share it with my nine-year-old grandson.

Friendly crew and beautiful scenery. Will definitely do again

We signed up as a family of four. Our six-year-old was especially excited as it was their first experience, but on the way to the location in the rental car, we got lost and it became clear that we wouldn't make it in time for the meeting. We contacted the ranch, but they said they couldn't wait because there were other participants. It was completely our fault, so we gave up and headed to the location with a heavy heart, hoping at least to show the kids the horses. However, during the drive, I received a call from a VELTRA staff member who said they would negotiate with the ranch. After a while, they informed us that the other participants would go ahead, and we would start late and catch up with the group, which the ranch agreed to. We started 40 minutes late, but thanks to that, the kids were overjoyed. I am very grateful to the VELTRA staff for their persistent negotiation. I could feel their dedication. Thank you very much.

家族４人で申し込みました。特に下の６才の子は初めての体験で、とても期待・興奮していたのですが、朝レンタカーで現地へ向かう途中で道に迷い、集合時間に間に合わないのが確実となりました。牧場へ連絡を取ったのですが、他の参加者があり待てないとのこと。完全にこちらに非があるのであきらめて、せめて子供に馬を見せるだけでもと思い沈んだ心で現地に向かいましたが、その途中でVELTRAのスタッフさんから電話があり、先方と交渉してみますとのこと。しばらくすると他の参加者には先行してもらい、僕たちは遅れてスタートしてグループに追いつくことで牧場側が考慮してくれたということでした。４０分遅れのスタートでしたが、おかげさまで子供達も大喜びでした。VELTRAのスタッフさんが粘り強く交渉してくれたおかげで、とても感謝しています。スタッフさんの本気を感じました。本当にありがとうございました。

Wayne was a great tourguide. He gave us a lot of useful information. There was just a sliver of sun to see on our morning and it was a bit chilly but the hot chocolate and watching how the sun comes up each morning was totally awesome. Despite having to get up at 2 a.m. it was an absolutely awesome tour.

Went on the cruise and wouldn't you know it, the day clouded over Kate afternoon so there was no sunset that might. The food was great and the drinks were great. It was a calm night so eating buffet style wasn't a huge problem. Would be nice to have a table to sit and eat. Saw lots of whales

I will definitely recommend to my friends. It's great!

I have seriously never seen so much activity, everything from breaches, fin slapping, female-calf-male escort trio, it was a smorgasbord of whale viewing, best whale watch ever!

Celebrating our 25th Anniversary in Maui and this excursion was an amazing time. The entertainment, food and atmosphere was great. It's amazing how the culture plays such an amazing part of the show. Definitely worth the money.

We thoroughly enjoyed Bruce, his knowledge of the island was terrific. BTW, you can see Oahu from Molokai on a clear day.

We are a family of 5 adults and this was our first sunset dinner cruise and it exceeded all our expectations. Everything about the event was exceptional starting by the pickup at our hotel ,the check-in process,the photos,the reserved seating,the drinks,the food and the food servers. We were entertained by the singer/guitar player throughout which was very pleasant. The weather was perfect and we were thrilled when a humpback whale and her baby were breeching within our view. We are looking forward to a whale watching cruise on the Maui Princess in a few days as part of the special package deal. We highly recommend the Maui Princess.

I was allowed to make a time change on my return time to Maui. The process was smooth and employees were polite.

In the beginning, I was half resigned to the fact that I could only see the whales spouting from a distance, but then a mother and baby whale appeared quite close to us, which was moving. After that, we encountered a pod of about 7 to 9 whales. I was very satisfied. There was a naturalist on the boat who provided commentary through a microphone, which was enjoyable. I couldn't understand all the details, but when a whale appeared, they would say, "○ o'clock!" and "left! right!" so it was fine.

*At the time of booking, it was noted that there would be an "English guide," but when I arrived at the port for check-in, a Japanese guide was waiting for us. I was grateful for the prior explanation about why whales gather around Maui, their habits, and the best viewing points.*

前半は遠くで潮を吹いている姿がちらほら見られるくらいで、なかなか近くでは見られないものなんだなと半分あきらめていたところ、親子クジラがかなり近い距離に現れてくれて感動。その後も、７〜９頭ほどのクジラの群れに遭遇。大満足でした。船にはナチュラリストの方が乗船していて、ずっとマイクで解説をしてくれて楽しかったです。細かいところまでは理解できませんでしたが、クジラが現れると「○ o'clock!（○時の方向）！」「left! right!」と言ってくれるので、大丈夫です。

※予約時点では「英語ガイド」と記載されていましたが、当日チェックイン先の港へ行くと日本人のガイドさんが待っていてくれました。なぜクジラがマウイ島に集まるのか、クジラの習性、見るポイントなど事前に説明してくださってありがたかったです。

was an amazing night !! great show, great food.. I have never seen anything like it

Bruce was our driver.. he was very informative and we enjoyed our day greatly !!

Our driver was very knowledgeable. My wife and I were not dressed for the elements but because he knew there would be quests who would not be prepared he had a couple of jackets and we were very thankful for him. The dinner was very good as well. We would recommend this company for this tour.

The captain and crew were excellent. We saw many mom's with there baby's. We also got to hear a male singing.

The captain and crew were absolutely wonderful. Peak whale season and my husband an I were in Maui celebrating our 25th anniversary. Not only was the dinner delicious and the views spectacular but we also were able to watch the whales. Didn't have to pay a separate fee for the spectacular encounters of the whales. This was absolutely worth every bit of the money we paid and will do it again WHEN we return to Kaalapani.

The crew was knowledgeable and the captain found some great whale locations. We saw quite a few breaches and other amazing whale activities.

However, the boat we went out with was their dinner boat and did not include the advertised hydrophones or binoculars. Had we known this, we might have booked a less expensive excursion that also didn't have these items.

Loved this! We learned so much about whales and so many whales. Definitely would recommend and do it again!

Good but very very long day so hard on the younger kids. Glad we did it but wouldn't do it again.

I participated in this on my honeymoon. I was able to see more whales up close than I expected, and I was very satisfied. The closest whale was about 90 meters away. I got to see the head of a baby whale about 20 times. (It's said that seeing so many is quite rare.) A Japanese guide also joined us on the boat. They explained the ecology of the whales and told us which direction the whales were located.

We were supposed to gather 30 minutes before departure, but it was a bit tough waiting in the blazing sun for those 30 minutes. I thought it might have been okay to step out of line and wait in the shade until we set sail.

新婚旅行で参加しました。思った以上にたくさんのクジラを近くで見ることができ、大満足です。クジラは一番近くて90メートル先にいるのを見ることができました。子クジラの頭を20回ほど見ることができました。（こんなにたくさん見れるのは滅多にないそうです）日本語のガイドさんも一緒に乗船してくれました。クジラの生態の説明をしてくれたり、今どの方向にクジラがいるのかを教えてくれたりしました。
船が出航する30分前に集合だったのですが、30分間炎天下の中並んで待ったのでそれが少し大変でした。出航するまでは少し列から外れて日陰で待っても大丈夫だったのでは…と思いました。

We had a great time and would definitely do this again. Staff was fun and friendly knowledgeable. Great time!! Would recommend this to anyone thinking about doing this while in Maui.

We had such a great time on this cruise! The bottomless drinks were awesome, the appetizers were delicious, the crew was incredibly friendly and knowledgable, and the scenery, whales, and sunset were breathtaking. I would take this tour again for sure!
