All Reviews for Maalaea Harbor & Ocean Center

My wife and I had a great time and the tour guide was very knowledgeable, informative, and hilarious! Very fun!

It’s not a private tour. We had another couple with us. I sat in the front seat and my husband in the 3rd row. The other couple sat in the second row. The driver was awesome! Showed us around town and took us to the places to see. He was very accommodating to our stop requests. Very personable and talkative. Very knowledgeable of the history of Lana’i. Not a 4x4… just a suburban but lots of fun! I would recommend it for your day trip

Lanai is amazing, our guide went above and beyond. He was very knowledgeable and experienced. The views are spectacular. I love the views from the Island of the Gods. I highly recommend the tour and I will definitely return to Lanai. This was my favorite adventure during my stay in Maui.

Josh was our guide and did an awesome job taking us around the island. We stopped at a coffee shop and got a delicious pastry and then proceed to tour the island. Josh was full of stories about growing up on the island which we all enjoyed hearing. We went to everything on the list and then went into the small town and ate lunch. It was delicious. I would highly recommend this tour. It was our favorite thing we did on the during our stay on Maui.
The only thing we would do differently is come back on the afternoon ferry instead of waiting for the 5:30 ferry. Again, it was a fantastic time!

Great crew. We were the only couple not affiliated with the Marriage celebration folks who filled up the rest of the seats/catamaran. Instead of the usual dinner of our last sunset cruise 2 years ago, the celebration had them do gourmet appetizers. The sponsor of the celebration greeted us and talked to us. The crew worked hard but happily caring for all on board.
We will be back in 2 years to enjoy the experience again.

We had a fabulous time on this tour with Josh!! He was very knowledgable on the island, inhabitants, customs, shops, restaurants and used personal stories to make this experience enjoyable by all. I would definitely recommend this tour and our tour guide Josh. On a side note, we were able to enjoy this experience. with another couple in which the husband worked the pineapple fields back in the 70's when he was 15 years old on a school reference. It was great seeing Lanai through his eyes and hearing about his time back in the day.

Beautiful place. Very educational and interesting experience I very much enjoyed it. Price to get in was a little high but for me the whale experience made up for it

Our experience on the Trilogy I was absolutely amazing. The crew was outstanding, especially Justin. The drinks were fantastic, the food was great, and the view of the sunset was spectacular. We would definitely recommend this experience to others in the future.

My husband and I had such a wonderful time on this trip. The crew was wonderful, helpful, generous and informative. Snorkeling at Molokini is an experience everyone who snorkels should experience. The water is so clear you see every little crevice, coral, creatures and color of every fish is AMAZING!!!! Also returning to snorkel at turtle town and then breaking out the sails on the catamaran just added to an already unforgettable experience. Go on this trip and experience a very special Maui area. Share this with your family - It will be something special you did together forever.

Everyone should consider going on this trip. It's a lovely trip on a large boat with a crew and captain who really love what they do and love Maui and everything there is there. Maui is magical and having the opportunity to share it with people who truly care about it is such a fantastic experience. Do it!! You will not regret it :)

Everything was great, exactly how it’s described
The timing, the staff, the photographer on board and under water was great, we saw the turtles, and dolphins, loved it
Take early time so u will be done by noon and you have another half of the day to do more or rest
My kids were excited to be in the water, they were little too small for snorkeling (4 and 2 years old) so didn’t snorkel

My husband loved this boat ride so much, it made me so happy!

Really fabulous afternoon on the water. We loved the boat and the fish we got to see!!!

Lanai and Lanai City remind me of a Hawaiian version of Mayberry. Everyone knows one another and the slower pace and smaller scale was refreshing and brought back memories of my own childhood. Our guide, Joshua was a native and we enjoyed talking about the island, the State of Hawaii, and the state of the current political situation.

The wife and I enjoyed ourselves as we trekked across old pineapple fields seeing quail, turkeys, pheasant and deer. Their "Garden of the Gods" was a trip to a Martian landscape and afforded us a great view of Molokai. My only gripe is that we ran out of time and I wanted to see more.

Our meeting was at 7:30 AM, and when we arrived, there were many participants gathered, which really got us excited. Once we reached Molokini Island, we quickly went snorkeling. It was the clearest water I've ever swum in (though I don't have that much experience). My partner was snorkeling for the first time, but they gradually got the hang of it, and we both enjoyed watching the fish together. At the second spot, we were thrilled to encounter a sea turtle swimming by. Eating a hamburger on the boat while battling the wind was also a great memory. Even in August, I felt a bit cold towards the end of our swim, but it wasn't cold enough to need to borrow a wetsuit. It was a tour that was definitely enjoyable for snorkeling beginners!

朝7:30の集合でしたが、着いてみたら参加者がたくさん集まっていてテンションが上がりました。モロキニ島に着いたら早速シュノーケリング。今まで泳いだ海の中で（といってもそんなに経験があるわけではありませんが）一番透明度が高かったです。相方は初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが徐々にコツを掴み、2人で魚鑑賞を楽しめました。2か所目のスポットではウミガメが泳いでいる姿にも出会えて感動でした。船上で風と戦いながら食べたハンバーガーも良い思い出です。8月でも泳いでいる最後の方は少し寒さを感じましたがウエットスーツを借りるほどではなかったです。シュノーケリング初心者にとっては充分楽しめるツアーでした！

Great boat, friendly crew and good for kids.They Provided a nice lunch and drinks and had a beautiful Bottom boat viewing for little ones. This boat wasn’t overcrowded like the calypso which I appreciated. I would go again, the only thing I would have liked was to go to two locations but that wasn’t in their program, which I chose. Overall great day!!

Wishing the conditions on Molikini were a bit better

Really fun day with a good amount of space on the boat! Didnt feel any type of sea sick

Can't say enough good things about the day with captain Turtle and crew. The crew was so attentive and fun. The breakfast and coffee that was served on way out to island was delicious. What really impressed me was that the crew remembered everyone by name thru out trip. The island of Lanai was as beautiful as the pictures. On a personal note I'd want to thank the crew especially Steve. I had an accident in the water and had to be taken to hospital. Steve went with my family and never left. Fortunately I was able to travel back and take boat home with captain Turtle. The boat and crew were amazing. If you want to book a trip to Lanai I strongly recommend Trilogy with captain Turtle.

My husband and I really enjoyed our experience on the sailboat! The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgable. They are professional and very nice people! The food and service was pretty good, and I really feel like the crew did their best to make the experience wonderful for everyone.

I could only see two types of fish, but there was enough time for snorkeling. It’s better to rent a wetsuit for $10 per person since the water temperature is low and you can’t swim for long, but I was right not to rent one. I was able to swim for the entire time, which was great. My 8-year-old daughter had the most fun. The hamburger was also filling, and my grandmother was happy that we chose this activity.

魚は2種類しか見えなかったが、シュノーケルの時間も十分。一人10ドルでウェットスーツを借りた方が良い、水温は低いから長い間泳げないと言われたが、借りなくて正解でした。時間いっぱい泳げたので、良かったです。8歳の娘が一番楽しんでました。ハンバーグも食べ応えあり、このアクティビティを選んで良かったと祖母も喜んでました。

- There were about 40 participants in the tour, with people from various countries.
- I joined alone, but the staff and other guests frequently chatted with me, which was enjoyable.
- In chronological order:
- We gathered at the meeting point at 6 AM for reservation confirmation and boarded the boat.
- Breakfast included a mountain of fruits like pineapple, grapes, and oranges, along with sandwiches, coffee, and juice, all of which were very delicious.
- Since we were on a boat, there was a slight sway, but I didn't feel seasick at all.
- Just to be safe, I only had a little fruit and coffee for breakfast.
- The water quality at Molokini was very clear, and I was able to see various fish.
- Turtle Town had slightly lower water quality than Molokini (maybe it varies by day?), but it was still a beautiful sea, and I was able to see about 10 turtles right in front of me.
- The guide sat on a surfboard nearby to monitor us, allowing us to enjoy snorkeling safely and securely.
- For lunch, sandwiches, cookies, juice, beer, and simple cocktails (including Mai Tais!) were provided on the boat, and on the way back, I felt free to eat without worrying about seasickness.
- During snorkeling, the staff called out to us, and I was able to purchase beautiful photos taken with an underwater camera, which I received via email.
- Regarding these photos, you can either buy one or all of them, and if you buy all, you'll receive photos of all the guests taken that day... meaning your own photos as well...
- Don't worry, photos are not taken unless you want them. While I felt a bit anxious, it seems you can also rent a GoPro here for a fee to take your own pictures.

The crew was amazing, and the snorkeling was great. I was scared at first but they did their best to make me feel comfortable and they were so patient and kind. I’m so glad I got to experience this with This particular group. They’re passionate and knowledgeable and paid attention to everyone’s safety. Highly recommend renting a wetsuit jacket and an underwater camera from them. Well worth it!

One of the best experiences on our Maui trip

The trip was comfortable and pleasant. The staff were helpful and friendly. Arrive early. They are prompt.

The ferry was comfortable despite rough seas. Staff were helpful and friendly. Arrive early to make sure you get on the ship. They are prompt.

Our tour of Lanai with Josh was absolutely fantastic! From start to finish, he made the experience unforgettable. Josh’s friendly demeanor and deep knowledge of the island’s history and culture truly set this tour apart. He shared fascinating stories that really brought the island to life, and his passion for Lanai was contagious. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. If you’re looking for an enjoyable experience, Josh is your guy! And we most definitely will be back!! Thank you!!

We had a great experience touring Lanai! We feel that we really got to see the whole island on our tour. We visited Lanai City, Shipwreck Beach, Garden of the Gods, the Cat Sanctuary, and stopped for beautiful photo opps around the island. Our guide, Russ, was amazing, and really went out of his way to make sure we had a great experience. I would highly recommend!

We had a great experience with the crew as well as the customer service team prior to sailing. We were following GPS and ran into crazy traffic and thought we’d miss the boat, so we reached out to the customer service team via text, and were easily able to communicate update them as we got closer. We arrived within seconds of sailing and were greeted warmly by the staff…hopped on and were able to join the fun! From the beginning to the end, we felt taken care of, well fed and had plenty to drink and just the right amount of time on the water to take in the amazing views and relax. It was a trip well worth taking and we plan on taking a voyage the next time we’re back! MAHALO!!!

Absolutely amazing day trip! Wish we could have been there longer!
Russ was excellent! Very knowledgeable and took his time to explain everything to us. Highly recommend! Cannot wait to come back and spend more time and explore more!

The dolphin tours were booked so we can watch dolphins. Boy did I spend 500$ for that which got wasted as we did not spot a single one. Very disappointed. My kids were so excited to watch dolphin and we could not. I would not recommend this service to anyone ever.
