This tour offers a good selection of time slots, which was great. The boat isn't very large, so if you're prone to seasickness, it's a good idea to take some medication. I participated in the early morning tour, and for a while, it seemed like we wouldn't see any whales. Just when I thought we might not see any today, we spotted one in the distance! Eventually, they appeared in various places; they weren't too close, but I was satisfied! The staff only spoke English, but they were kind. One downside is that the check-in location is hard to find. If it doesn't change in the future, it's the booth on the far right with your back to the town.
このツアーは時間帯がけっこう選べるので、良かった。船はそんな大きくないので、船酔いする人は酔い止め飲むといい。
早朝のツアーに参加、なかなか鯨が現れない。今日は見れないのかと思ってたら、遠くに発見!そのうち、色々なところに現れてそんなに近くはないけど満足!スタッフは英語のみだが、優しい。
1つ難点は、チェックインの場所が分かりづらい。今後も変わらなければ町を背にして1番右のブースです。

We were lucky that it was a beautiful day on the water. Everything was perfect! We saw so many whales we couldn't keep up with which side of the boat they were breaching on. Our "Captain Dan" was the most amazing host. He provided a lot of insight into the whales (their behaviour, etc), the surrounding area & history, the crew on the boat and even his own life. It wouldn't have been the same without him onboard. Thanks, "Lieutenant Dan"!! Riley was an excellent bar keep and equipment manager. I don't remember the names of the rest but all were so professional and accommodating. Snorkelling on the Molokini for a newbie like my wife was a breeze thanks to ALL of them. Will definitely book this again when we go back to Maui.

The weather was nice, and the waves were calm, which felt great. I was very excited to see a whale for the first time. I heard that if it were a little later in the season, we could see even more. I requested a Japanese guide, and I was very pleased with the service. If it were only in English, the experience might have been only half as impactful. The guide was wonderful and also provided explanations about Maui, for which I am grateful. Please send my regards to the guide, T. I would highly recommend this experience.
天気がよく、波も静かで気持ちよかったです。初めてクジラを見れて大変感激しました。時期がもう少し後ならもっと見られるそうです。今回日本人のガイドさんをリクエストし対応して頂き大変よかったです。英語だけなら感動も半分くらいかもです。ガイドさんはすばらしい方でホエールウオィチング以外にもマウイの説明をして頂き感謝です。ガイドのTさんに宜しくお伝えください。はかにもおすすめしたいです。

We live on Maui but decided to venture out to Lanai. This little ferry was great! I was able to book trip for 5 people fast online and confirm it within 15 minutes just one day ahead.
Weather was great and ride was smooth to Lanai. We even managed to see wails. On island we decided to stay longer and I was able to move our tickets to last ferry without any problems (there is a phone number on the tickets, they do pick up the phone fast). Ride back was in the dark but it still was fun, we got to see amazing starry sky!

I had only experienced horseback riding about three times at a ranch and had never ridden alone, but it was absolutely no problem. After receiving a brief explanation in English, they selected horses based on each person's body type, height, and skill level, and we started riding without any practice. We waited on the horses until everyone was done riding (laughs).
Once we passed through the mountain path, the ocean spread out before us, and the view was breathtaking! The horses were well-trained, listened to commands, and were adorable. We gave a $10 tip for the two of us! Thank you for a truly valuable and wonderful experience!
乗馬は3回程度牧場で経験したのみで、1人で乗った事もないレベルでしたが、全く問題ありませんでした。
軽く英語で説明を受けた後、1人1人の体型や身長やレベルを見て、馬を選んでいただいて、練習も何もないまま急に乗馬開始で、全員乗り終わるまで乗ったまま待機していました(笑)
山道を抜けると、海が広がり絶景でした!
馬はしつけられていて、言う事も聞いてくれて可愛かったです。
チップは2人で$10渡しました!
本当に貴重で素晴らしい体験をありがとうございました!

The tour started at 3 am. First stop was in a store where we were supposed to buy water and chewing gum to make the way up the mountain easier. The bus was new and confortable. We arrived at the top of the Haleakala around 5:30 am and stayed freezing outside the bus until 6:40 am, for the sunrise. It was cold and windy, around 0°C... Other companies provided blankets and jackets to their customers. Ours didn’t. The view was fantastic even in that cloudy morning. It’s worth waking up that early! After the sunrise, we started our way down, with two great stops to see the view. Breakfast was served in front of golf course around 9:30 am. We arrived at the hotel at 10:45 am.

This was my only tour in Maui since I did another in Kona.
Great way to spend a Saturday afternoon!
I was the only person in the cab to and from the tour.
I had a great seat on the boat and everyone seemed very friendly.
They provided everyone with free snorkeling gear but I had a cold so brought my own snorkel. Not sure how much they clean the gear.
Snorkeling site wasn't the best. I didn't see much but others claimed to see a turtle and manta ray. There were far too many people in the water! There was another tour group right next to us. We didn't see many whales either :(
Food and drinks were good, even able to take leftovers.
Overall good experience for singles, families, and couples- gay or hetero.

I participated with my daughter. We decided to join because there was live music, and the authentic hula show was also very good. There were no Japanese crew members. I’m not good at English, but it was not a problem at all. It was a very windy day, so I felt like I might be blown away while watching the show, and it was quite cold. I think it would have been even better if the wind had been weaker.

We have visited Maui for many years. We have always said we need to do a day trip to one of the lesser visited islands. So we chose Lanai. The tour package was inclusive, so all we had to do was show up. The ferry ride was quite nice. Your your guide was very informative about the history of Lanai. It was nice to see the island that was not over developed. Who knows how long it can stay that way, but we really enjoyed it. As the guide mentioned there is not much to do on Lanai, so the half day tour worked out well for us. Never the less we enjoyed our trip.

We've done a few surfing lessons over the past decade. Our instructor this time topped them all. He was funny, kind, patient with our autistic son to the point of putting him on his own board and riding tandem. He spent half the class putting the extra effort to building up our boy's confidence before he was ready to try surfing on his own.
The picture of our kid's face when he stood up and surfed on his own was something worth buying - and we don't often purchase the pictures taken over the course of the lesson.
Josh didn't just teach him to surf, he gave him a lesson in confidence and perseverance that our son won't easily forget. The fact that he had the time of his life was just the umbrella on top of the coconut.

This was a good tour and Preston, our guide, was friendly and informative. I would recommend that the stop at the crater be longer. We went into the Visitors Center first for a few minutes then we felt rushed hiking up to the crater summit. We actually turned around before we got to the top because we didn't want to be late getting back to the bus. I suggest you go up to the summit first and then see the Visitors Center if there is time.

The weather on Maui was unfortunately not great, but I was able to see the wonderful sunrise I had longed for. Above all, our tour guide, Nelly, was amazing!! I believe it was a wonderful encounter that changed my perspective on life.
The summit is very windy and cold. You'll be outside for about an hour before sunrise, so warm clothing is essential. I had heard from friends, so I wore Heattech, a cashmere turtleneck, an ultra down jacket, a snowboard jacket, a neck warmer, a knit hat, gloves, and a cashmere stole, and that was just right for me. I noticed some foreigners wearing shorts or leggings at the summit, but they were buying clothes there, so be aware that they only accept cash.
マウイ島ではあいにくの天気が続いてましたが、念願の素晴らしい日の出を見ることができました。
何よりも、ツアーガイドのネリーさんが最高でした!!人生観も変わるステキな出会いだったと思ってます。
山頂は非常に風も冷たく、寒いです。日の出前1時間くらい外にいますので温かい格好は必須です。
私は友達から聞いていたので、ヒートテック、カシミアのタートルネック、ウルトラダウン、スノボのジャケット、ネックウォーマー、ニット帽、手袋とカシミアのストールを着て、貼るホッカイロでちょうど良いくらいでした。外国人の方で半ズボンやスパッツで着てる方は山頂で買ってましたが、現金のみなので要注意です。
