All Reviews for For 12 Year Olds

We had the best time ever. The views were great, the show was entertaining, food was delicious, and our table service was exceptional! We couldn’t get over how attentive our waiter was on refilling our drinks. I would highly recommend this luau to anyone!

Awesome evening! As good as it was 26 years ago!! Will definitely be back! Excellent!

Enjoyed grabbing a seat on the top deck. The team did a great job getting people on and off the boat. Ride was smooth as we could get given the high winds. Great experience overall.

The sunset dinner cruise was a very fun night. And of course, the ocean and views were so, soo beautiful. Dinner was pretty good. I had mahi-mahi with potatoes and carrots. Others in my party had some prime rib that was the better choice.
We had pleasant time all around!
1 note however, the boat was a little loud and looked a bit old and worn. But once the sun was setting and we had some drinks, none of that seemed to bother me anymore!

I definitely recommend!

Fast and easy, comfortable seating, and on time. Ferry is large enough so the ride is smooth. Available times are convenient for an all day visit, or for a couple hours of snorkeling. Parking at Lahaina Harbor was not easy due to construction but we found a parking lot several blocks away. Our first visit to Lana’i…very laid back and pretty.

The crew on board was friendly and efficient. Safety of the passengers was a priority. Booking the ferry was fast and easy, and a change of dates was easily done by phone. Thanks for the ferry ride!

I wasn’t sure what to expect but I was presently surprised. The crew and staff were great, the meal was excellent and the views were grand. There was an entertainer who sang and played, contributing nicely to the overall atmosphere. I had not booked a dinner cruise before but I’m glad,I did. I recommend the experience.

Great entertainment, food is only okay! But hey you are paying for the show!

This was a great experience. The crew of the boat was very attentive. The equipment was in excellent shape. Very nice breakfast and lunch. Unfortunately, we did not see any turtles, but this, of course, is not the fault of the tour operators. If you are looking to go to Molokini, I recommend this tour.

We had a late flight our last day in Maui so we wanted something fun and easy to do after we checked out of our condo. The MauI Ocean Center was a really fun time and educational to boot. There is a mix of outdoor and indoor spaces, an interactive show on feeding the sharks and rays, and plenty of exhibits that allow you up close views of the fish and turtles we saw while snorkeling.

The 3d video on whales was well done and the crowds were light enough to allow us good access to all the different viewing areas.

Such a fun experience. There were 4 in our party. Two actually went snorkeling and the other two watched turtles. The staff went above and beyond.

Fantastic location! Superior guides who patiently walked us through every step! Enjoyed this adventure and highly recommend!

Nice atmosphere! Great dances which told stories. Engaging!

My family and I had the best experience. From the moment we stepped onto the boat, the crew was very attentive, friendly, and funny. They provided a great overview of the day activities and what we needed. They checked on us frequently and even provided a little history lesson on the nearby islands. We took about 1 hr boat ride over to Lanai. Once at Lanai, it was a 7 minute walk to the beach. The beach was amazing!!! We did some snorkeling, a short nature walk, and had some time to chill at the beach. The BBQ LUNCH was delicious! The boat ride back we enjoyed 2 cocktails and ice cream. The crew exceeded our expectations. I would definitely do this again! I felt like VIP. Book it! You won’t regret it

Just a great show. Loved how it was about the entire pacific island triangle heritage. Definitely worth the money for the VIP.

It was an overall great time. You get to see marine life that you wouldn’t get to normally see on a regular snorkel trip. The shipwreck is fantastic and such a great experience. Definitely recommend if you have younger kids.

It was just a normal ferry ride from Maui to Lanai that took about a 45 minute ride each way. The boat was not full so it was nice that you had some room to not have to sit next to someone. Though there was a line I didn't worry because there were plenty of seats. If you prefer not to be under the sun then sit inside otherwise if you want to feel the breeze and get some sun then sit upstairs.

Live music was really pleasing, cocktails were only okay! Fun night overall.

Once in a life time experience!! The views were unbelievable! Very friendly driver who made frequent restroom or snack stops. Attentive to groups wants and needs! Pray you get a good group! Dress warm!!

My wife and I had an incredible day on this excursion! The exclusive rights to the island that other tour companies do not have is what makes this company one of a kind!! They take you to a "private" beach and allow you to snorkel, hike, and provide a breakfast and lunch! There were other companies snorkeling around reefs but this company actually takes you onto the island!! We HIGHLY recommend! Captain Raquel and her crew were fantastic!

The snorkeling experience was very good. They were informative and patient, helping everyone get equipped. They had 2 spots, I would have preferred just staying at the first stop, as there was less to see at the second, and the swim back to the boat was tiring at the second stop. I recommend using a flotation belt instead of a noodle. I also recommend taking Dramamine for the ride there and back.
Overall a fun time and we saw a lot of beautiful sea life!

John Hess was fabulous. Our whole family had the most amazing time. After talking about our week every one of us said this was an activity we would do again especially if we could have John as our guide.

We had a great time at this one . There wasn’t a bad seat in the house . Tons of great food and the performers were fantastic !

We LOVED this- a dive in a submarine to see the world below with a variety of fish including sharks and unicorn fish, even a sunken ship which is now a man-made reef. We even set down on the ocean floor at 130 feet beneath the surface. Everyone had their own viewing porthole. Recommended.

We were met at the harbor with plenty of aloha from our guide Joshua. He had an intimate knowledge of the island. From its long history to now, Joshua knew it all. He explained how the ecosystem has evolved through the years. We went to a great store and picked up some ono poke and a loaf of guava bread (cake) Joshua recommended. He dropped us off at an awesome snorkeling beach near the harbor. We spent the rest of our day on that beautiful beach snorkeling and enjoying our lunch. You’ve got to buy the guava bread! The ferry trip was easy and it was a perfect time to catch a nap. Well worth our time and hard earned money.

We book feast at Lele through Veltra.. The service was outstanding and the entertainment more so . My family had a wonderful time and I would highly recommend this luau. . It was a highlight of our vacation.. I would also recommend booking through Veltra with a discount we received which was 5% I believe …definitely a decent amount ..

The luau was amazing. The food was excellent, the dancers were incredibly talented, and we had the best time. It was the best part of our vacation and is an experience that will last a lifetime. Must do if you’re in Maui!!

We took our three boys (ages 8, 6, and 3) on this during our first visit to Maui and overall, really enjoyed ourselves. The host was witty and funny, even if he's likely reusing the same jokes over and over. Understandably, it doesn't appear as colorful as you'd expect because of how the lighting changes things through the windows, but it was a really unique experience. I would say happy we did it once, but wouldn't do it again.

To be honest, the only thing that really disappointed me was knowing that the sunken ship was completely staged for the submarine tours. It didn't feel authentic.

Pros - we got to see a lot of marine life! Sharks included. And the boatride to/from the submarine was really nice and the kids were pretty blown away when the submarine first popped up.

Great job to the tour guides and staff!

Sunset cruise was outstanding. The crew was very attentive with drinks / food / pictures etc…. The food was very good and a good mix of items and everyone enjoyed. Highly recommend!
Mahalo!

Our family truly enjoyed this tour of Lanai’i. It was made even better as we had Josh as our tour guide and he did an amazing job as our host on this breathtaking island. He made us feel right at home and was always making sure we were fine and asked us for our input on what we wanted to do / see on the island! He drove us to some very special places and told us wonderful stories about the Hawaiian culture on Lanai’i as well as current information about the island and its current population. He also made a special stop at the cat Sanctuary and our daughters were absolutely thrilled about this! Thank you Josh for making this experience most enjoyable and memorable for our family!

This is my first surfing experience.It’s safety. The coach is very patient.
