I enjoyed every moment of the tour, Haleakala is definitely a must-do in Maui!
I'm glad that Polynesian Adventure Tours offers the Sunset tour, I would not be able to do the sunrise tour because of my tight schedule.
The local tour guide Kama was was excellent, very entertaining and knowledgeable about the Island of Maui. He gave us a map and shared interesting facts about Hawaiian history, geology, geography, ecology and legends.
After the pick up we stared our journey to the top of the Haleakala. We made a quick stop at the small, but beautiful Lavender Farm for a bathroom break and to get the coffee and pastries.
We arrived at the visitor center, approximately one hour prior to Sunset, and we had enough time to explore around and take nice pictures of the landscape. I absolutely love sunsets and being able to watch it above the clouds was amazing!
The last stop was at Cafe O Lei, we had a delicious family-style dinner and it was a great way to end the night.
The Sunset tour is great because it is not as crowed as the sunrise. I had a great experience visiting Haleakala with Polynesian Adventure Tours!

I have done many different tours in Hawaii, and no doubt Jasmine was the best tour guide I have ever had. The tour was perfect from the pick up until the drop-off.
I wasn't sure what to expect since this was my first time on the island but I'm glad I did it. I would never have been able to see this much in one day by myself. She safely drove us through windy and narrow roads and took us to places where large tour buses cannot go.
What a difference Jasmine makes. She is a local Maui girl who deeply loves what she does, she is very knowledgeable and shared interesting facts about Maui's history, culture, geology, ecology, industry etc.
This tour took me to many out of the beaten path places in Maui, giving me memory that will last a lifetime! If you are visiting Maui I highly recommend booking the West Maui Sightseeing Tour!

We gathered around 4:30 PM and enjoyed welcome drinks, taking photos, and conversations with the people at our table. The food, a mix of traditional Hawaiian dishes and hotel cuisine, was very delicious. The show was entertaining, filled with laughter, emotion, and excitement. I believe it became a wonderful memory.
16時30分頃から集まり、ウェルカムドリンク、写真、テーブルの人たちとの会話を楽しみました。お食事もハワイ伝統のものとホテルのごはんがまじり良い感じでとてもおいしかったです。ショーも笑いあり、感動あり、迫力ありと楽しむことができました。
良い思い出になったとおもいます。

I participated in the morning cruise (around 9 AM). I had signed up for a Japanese tour, but unfortunately, it turned out to be an English tour. It seems there were many explanations about whales, but since I'm not fluent in English, I only managed to listen to "in the direction of ○ o'clock" f(^^;
February is the peak season, and as the local guide mentioned, "there are a lot of them," we could see spouts in various places. Unfortunately, we couldn't see any breaches like in the images, but we did catch glimpses of whales waving goodbye with their fins and their tails several times. Perhaps because it was a relatively large boat for whale watching, it seemed like we kept a certain distance from the whales and didn't get too close. This might be due to regulations regarding whales or safety considerations. I had hoped to see them a bit closer, but I guess it depends on luck. (Or maybe I should choose a tour with a smaller boat...?)
Fortunately, it was a calm day, and since I had taken motion sickness medication, I hardly noticed the rocking of the boat.
朝のクルーズ(9時台)に参加しました。
日本語ツアーを申し込んだのですが、残念ながら英語ツアーになりました。
鯨についての説明が沢山流れていたようですが、英語は堪能ではないので「○時の方向」というのだけ頑張って聴いていました f(^^;
2月はシーズンのピークで、ツアーの現地ガイドの方が「うじゃうじゃいます」とおっしゃっていた通り、あちこちで潮吹きしています。
画像にあるようなブリーチは残念ながらみることはできませんでしたが、遠目ながら鰭でのバイバイや、尾びれは何度かみることができました。
ホエールウォッチングツアーの中では比較的大きめのボートのせいか、あまり鯨に近寄らず、ある程度の距離を置くようにしていたように思えます。
鯨に対する規定や、安全に考慮しているのかもしれません。
もう少し間近に見ることができるのかと思っていましたが、そのあたりは運もあるのでしょうね。
(もしくはより小型の船のツアーを選ぶようにするか・・・?)
幸いなことに波が穏やかな日で酔い止め薬を飲んでいたこともあり、船の揺れはほとんど気になりませんでした。

Since I'm going to Maui, I thought I'd be greedy and go all the way to Lanai! So I made a reservation.
When I went to the reception counter with my voucher, it was easy to board the boat. It was a beautiful ship, and I didn't notice any unusual smells (like heavy oil?). My friend was worried about seasickness and took some medicine, but it might not have been necessary. On the way back, they didn't take any and slept soundly.
We sat outside on the second floor. If the weather is nice, be careful of sunburn! We saw whales and dolphins, and the beautiful sea, sky, clouds, and breeze felt wonderful. For lunch on Lanai, we had loco moco, saimin, and freshly baked bread at Blue Ginger—so delicious!
I recommend bringing a cooler bag with drinks and snacks and wearing your swimsuit for a fabulous day on the island!

We arrived on Lanai. We were usher to a suburban and driven to Lanai City. We assumed we would get the jeep that we would be able to drive. We were looking forward to the excitement of driving on the rugged roads. When when got to Lanai city we were met by Bruce's in another Suburban. He proceeded to drive us around the island and we never did get the jeep. Not sure what happened. I asked twice if this was the correct tour and told yes it was.

It was the perfect ending to our last night on Maui! The check-in time changed after we made our reservation, and the voucher stated a 6 PM check-in. However, we were able to sit down and start drinking at 6 PM, and the buffet began about 30 minutes after check-in, with the show starting even later.
Since alcohol is all-you-can-drink, they asked for a passport (or any ID that shows your age). A copy is fine, but a Japanese driver's license was not accepted. It was okay in Oahu, but here they were strict about alcohol, so my companion had to go back to the hotel to get it.
Before the show started, there was a ceremony where they presented a pig roasted in an imu. I felt really sorry seeing the pig's face looking right at us, but I enjoyed the kalua pig from the buffet with gratitude.
The show featured a variety of performances including hula, Tahitian, Samoan, Maori, and fire dancing. There was even a segment where we could participate on stage, so I joined in and danced. Since there were hardly any Japanese people in Maui, I felt it was easier to get into the spirit and enjoy myself even more!
マウイ島滞在最後の夜の締めくくりに最高の宴でした!
チェックイン時間は申し込んだあと変更になり、バウチャーには18時チェックインと記載されていましたが、18時から席についてドリンクを飲み始められるようになっており、ブュッフェが始まるのはチェックインから30分後くらい、ショー自体のスタートはさらにそのあとになります。
アルコール類も飲み放題なので、パスポート(年齢のわかるID)の提示を求められます。コピーでも大丈夫ですが、日本の運転免許証はダメでした。オアフでは免許証でも大丈夫なのですが…。アルコールについては厳しいので絶対NGだったため、同行者はホテルに取りに戻っていました。
ショーが始まる前にイムから焼いた豚を出す儀式がありました。眠りについて出てきたブーちゃんの顔がちょうどこちらを向いていて、気の毒でとてもいたたまれない気持ちになりましたが、ブュッフェのカルアピッグは感謝しながらおいしくいただきました。
ショーはフラ、タヒチアン、サモア、マオリ、ファイヤーダンスなど盛りだくさんで、途中ステージに参加できるコーナーがあったので一緒に踊ってきました。
マウイは日本人がほとんどいなかったのでいろいろノリやすくてより楽しめた気がします♪

I visited Lanai Island for the first time. I went without any prior research, but the guide, who spoke only English, chose very easy-to-understand words to explain, allowing me to learn about the history and present of Lanai Island. I encourage you to challenge yourself with English conversation practice. Bruce will respond politely, even if he looks a bit troubled.

This was my first time participating. It was a Japanese tour, but the explanations were thorough and easy to understand.
I heard that 70% of the whales from Alaska come to Hawaii, and 90% of those come to Maui.
Since they are living creatures, the chances of encountering them are quite unpredictable, but I think we saw quite a few. When I went on another snorkeling tour, I also saw many whales, so I believe that riding on the boat more than twice increases satisfaction.
I heard that the peak is in February.
初めて参加しました。日本語ツアーでしたが、説明が丁寧で分かりやすかった。
アラスカから7割のクジラがハワイにやってきて、そのうちの9割がマウイに来るそうです。

別のシュノーケリングツアーに出かけたときもたくさんクジラが見られたので、2回以上船に乗ると満足度が高いと思います。

I participated in January. It was an English tour, but the instructor's explanations were easy to understand, and the crew was kind. Breakfast and lunch were delicious.
I only participated in snorkeling. It was disappointing that there weren't many types of fish near Molokini Island. However, there were wild seals. My companion who participated in the snuba got seasick, which was a bit unfortunate.
On the way to and from, we were able to see whales up close, and I was thrilled to see more whales than on a whale watching tour.

The sunrise tour on Maui was currently only available in English, and my family and I were a bit anxious about participating, but there were no problems at all. The view from the visitor center (3000m) just below the summit of Haleakalā was breathtaking, and the sunrise following the starry sky was refreshing and truly a heart-cleansing experience. My family was completely satisfied, and the view from the summit at 3055m was also fantastic after we moved by bus before descending.
In addition to preparing for the cold, I recommend bringing an LED light. The breakfast at the golf course in Kahului after descending was also good.

I decided to book online the day before and received a confirmation by evening. I took my 10-month-old son with me, and the boat was large enough, so there were no issues. However, the chairs on the second deck are fixed and a bit cramped. We were able to see whales multiple times, which was satisfying. The early morning tour is reasonably priced and refreshing, so I highly recommend it. The English guide only mentioned which direction we were facing, so I think it’s not a problem.

I was not looking forward to a 2:50am pickup at the hotel, but the transportation was very comfortable and Rory, our tour guide, was exceptional. He talked most of the way over to Haleakala about Hawaiian culture & traditions so it was informative. When we got to the observation area, Rory took us to 'the best spot' for viewing which also blocked off the wind that was blowing. It is strange at first because the darkness hides the landscape. But the stars were as beautiful as I've ever seen them. Then the horizon began to glow and things moved pretty quickly until full sunrise. We then moved to the 10000 ft observation area and the view was breath taking. Tour finished with a nice breakfast at Café O'lei and we were dropped back off at our hotel in Lahaina. This is a spectacular event and really different from other Maui activities. Pack some warm clothes!

Suddenly, it started to rain, and I think the temperature at the summit of Haleakalā was close to 0 degrees. I felt that Iao Valley was a place with some kind of power. The people of Maui referred to it as "blessing rain." It felt like my unnecessary energy was being washed away. The hotel pickup was around 6:30, but the actual departure from the meeting spot was around 8:30, so it seems like the hotel pickup could be a bit later.
急に雨が降り出し、ハレアカラの頂上は0度に近かったと思います。イアオ渓谷はなにかパワーのある場所のような気がしました。マウイの人からは「祝福の雨」と言われました。自分の不必要なエネルギーが流されたような気がします。朝のホテルピックアップは6:30くらいですが実際の集合スポットからの出発は8:30頃で、ホテルピックアップはもっと後でもいいような気がします。

I really wanted to participate in whale watching, but since it wasn't during the peak season of February to March, I decided to enjoy the waters of Maui with this tour instead.
Since it was my first time in Maui, I chose the 9 AM tour that included a pickup service. A minivan taxi picked us up at our hotel and then picked up a family of foreigners at a nearby hotel before arriving at the meeting point by the Banyan Tree on the ocean side. We showed our voucher to the staff, and since we needed a Japanese audio guide, we received headphones in a bag and waited under the tent for a while.
Gradually, more people gathered, and we began boarding the boat heading to the submarine offshore. This is when we took photos. After about 10 minutes, we met up with the submarine and descended the ladder backward into the vessel. There were about 15 of us in total, including small children, and we were the only Japanese people. The staff seemed to be considerate, as they seated us at the very back (stern) away from the foreigners, allowing us to relax.
Underwater, there was no rocking, and since it was morning, it felt slightly dim, but the tour progressed smoothly. Along the way, we encountered a sunken ship, which made me laugh unexpectedly due to something I saw. I thought, "In a place like this..." (chuckle).
Before I knew it, the tour was over, and we surfaced. We exchanged places with the next group of people and watched the submarine descend as we headed back to the dock. Here, we were handed the photos taken before boarding (with a backing of the Atlantis) and those who wanted to buy them could pay $20.
As we were getting off, I realized that the staff member who had been next to us during the tour spoke Japanese, so they had indeed been considerate. I gave that staff member a tip as a thank you.
Overall, I made some great memories, but since I feel satisfied after experiencing it once, I rated it four stars. I hope this is helpful!
本当はホエールウォッチングに参加したかったのですが、本格的な見頃である2月~3月では無かったので、このツアーで取り敢えずマウイの海を堪能しました。
今回マウイは初めてだったので、送迎サービスがある9時開始を選びました。
ミニバンタクシーが私達をホテルでピック後、すぐ隣のホテルで外人さんファミリーをピックアップしてバニヤン・ツリー海側の集合場所へ到着。
受付の人にVoucherを見せ、私達は日本語の音声ガイドが必要だったので袋に入ったヘッドフォンを受け取りテント下で暫く待機。
次第に人が集まってきて、沖合の潜水艦に向かう船に乗船開始。その時に写真撮影を行います。
10分ぐらいで潜水艦と合流しタラップを後ろ向きで降りて艦内へ。
小さな子供さん達を含めて総勢15名程で日本人は私達だけでした。スタッフが気を遣ってくれたのか、外人さん達とは離れた一番奥(船尾)に座らされノンビリと出来ました。
海中は揺れも無く、朝という事で若干薄暗い感じでしたが順調にツアーが進んで行きました。
途中、沈没船が現れるのですが、とある物で思わず笑ってしまいました。
こんな所に・・・(苦笑
そうこうしている間にツアー終了となり海面へ浮上。
次のツアーの人達と交代して、潜行していく潜水艦を見届け船着場へと向かいます。
ここで乗船前に撮影した写真(アトランティス号の台紙付き)を手渡され、買いたい人は20$を払います。
降りる際、ツアー中私達の隣に居てくれたスタッフが日本語を話していたので、やはり配慮してくれてたんだなと改めて実感。お礼も兼ねてそのスタッフにチップを渡しました。
評価としては、良い思い出が出来ましたが、1度体験すれば満足なので星4つとしました。

The excursion itself introduced us to the rain forest of Maui which was beautiful in its terrain and a bit challenging to navigate. Dawn gave us all the confidence we needed so we could rise to the challenges while being gracious to those who did not choose some aspects (cliff jumping) of the tour. Overall, it was a highlight of our entire Hawaiian trip. Dawn was fantastic. Lastly, the water shoes (available for a nominal charge) are a necessity.

It was the season for whale watching, so we encountered many. Advice for participants: confirm your reservation by phone, communication is only in English during the tour, and there is a 'roll call' both going and returning for peace of mind. You can also choose the amount of food and drinks yourself, which is reassuring.

The tour was good overall. Due to weather we didnt get to swim by the waterfalls, I wish they had offered another option like more time in black sand beach, knowing that it was impossible to swim in the other part. (I had brought my swimsuit, towel and extra clothes). I liked it that they offered complimentary juices and water bottles on the bus. If you don't pay for the tour that includes lunch, there are more options to find good food walking distance from where the bus stops for lunchtime, so I didn't regret not paying for that
