検温やマスク着用は無かったです。私達のコンドミニアムピックアップの場所の都合だとは思いますが、クリスピークリームドーナツには私達は立ち寄らなかったです。満席状態で、日本人だけではなく、他国の人のグループと一緒でした。日本語と英語のガイドでした。やまぴーさんは細かいところまでよく気を配って下さります。
スーパーに立ち寄り、夕食を買う時も細かくアドバイス、アテンドしてくださいました。
週5でハレアカラに来られているそうで、この地を知り尽くしているベテランのガイドさんだと感じました。写真の撮り方もプロ並みです。

Our tour guide, Steve, was right on time, friendly, super knowledgeable, and enthusiastic about his island home. We were able to see everything of interest on Lanai (except the resorts, which are not open to sight-seers). If you are on a one-day trip to Lanai, this is the way to go.

当日は数少ない雨で、登頂中は雲の中を走っているような状態。しかしリアルタイムの気象情報と山さんの経験で少し待てば晴れ間が出ると判断して一時待機。本当に晴れ間が出てきて、見事星空を満喫できました!条件が悪くても最大限機転を利かせて対応して下さる経験と対応はさすがです。

Guide "Jelly" took the two of us on a customized tour giving us lots of history of the island and also information about local activities due to his years on Lana'i. Exceptional value and great fun.

初めていったマウイで何か貴重な体験を、と思い申し込みました。
ホテル送迎で、片道2時間のドライブも山ピーさんの楽しいトークで楽しく過ごせました。途中おいしいローカルフードも買えて、山頂での夕食を堪能しました。
山頂では壮大なクレーター、360度の眺望、雲海に沈む夕日が幻想的で、日頃の些細な悩みなど吹っ飛ぶ経験が出来ました。落日後の星空がまた最高で、天の川その他もろもろの星たちを静かに眺めることができ、遠い子供のころ観た記憶も蘇る貴重な体験でした。山ピーさんが、GPS天体望遠鏡で次々と有名な恒星群や惑星を見せてくれたことにも感謝です。
とにかく必見のツアーであることは間違いないです。

We had a wonderful time touring some popular sites on Lanai (Shipwreck Beach, Garden of Gods, Cat sanctuary). Many of the sites were off unpaved roads, so have a driving guide really saved a lot of work and planning. The tour group with Russ, Ray and Cory was very accommodating, making extra arrangements to make sure no one is left stranded, even when unplanned events arise. The hardest part was figuring out where to pick up the tickets that morning. For us it was a booth across the street from the Pioneer Inn, near a small lighthouse.

死ぬまでにやりたい10の事。のリストに入ってる!
ハレアカラの星空を観たい。コロナ禍で3年振りのハワイ。そして初めてのマウイ島。真っ先に星空ツアーを申し込んだ。当日ホテル3:30にピックアップ。2名の若い日本人カップルと私たちシニア女性2人組。ガイドの山Pさんが喋る喋る!私もつられて喋る(笑笑)クリスピークリームでドーナツを買い。フードランドでポケを買い。いざハレアカラへ!ビジターセンターでトイレ休憩。高地に身体を慣らしながら頂上へ。頂上に着いた途端猛吹雪。
『大丈夫ですよ!第五ポイントまで確保してありますから必ずお見せします』自信満々の山Pさん。
1m先も見えない吹雪の中下山開始。3055mから真っ暗(真っ白?)な山道を我が庭のように走り出す。なんと‼︎!第二ポイントで雲と同じ高さからのサンセットが見える‼︎感動。そしてまた雨が降り出し、移動開始。もしかしたら山Pさんは雲を見ながら移動してたのかな?第三ポイントで素早くイスや望遠鏡やもろもろ用意して、、、、、
『いいって言うまで絶対空見ないでくださいよ』
なんて言われて、ドキドキ期待が高まる!防寒着を貸してもらい万全の体制でいざ‼︎
うわー!泣ける!吹雪だったのに!豪雨だったのに!今も強風で飛ばされそうだけど!
ぐるり360度満点の星空です。ベテランガイドの成せる技ですね!本当に参加して良かったです。何度行ってもきっと感動するでしょう。必ずまたあの星空を観に戻ると思います!山Pさんに漬け物のお土産を届けにもう一度ハレアカラへ!

All the horses were beautiful! The men in charge took their time pairing each horse to the correct rider depending on their experience in riding. Really enjoyed the ride. The views on the ride where outstanding.

Our guide was very knowledgeable throughout the tour. However, his vast knowledge regarding planets, stars and constellations was the highlight of the tour. Would highly recommend this tour.

I chose this excursion to surprise my Husband on out Honeymoon and we had the best time. Yoshi was kind, knowledgeable, and fun to be around. I was even able to tell him that this was a surprise for my husband and he had no idea what we were doing and Yoshi helped me keep that secret till we were at the top of the summit. Yoshi picked us up at the Lahaina Mall and made many fun stops on our way to the top of Haleakala. First was Krispy Creme where he picked us up donuts, next we stopped at Foodland so we could all get some food for sunset and the final stop was Kula Lodge located on the volcano. We then reached the summit to watch the sunset. Yoshi was so kind and took many pictures of my Husband and I. He had blankets, coats, and gloves for us as it is quite chilly at the top. We were then able to sit in his warm van and enjoy the food we had bought at Foodland and Yoshi offered us coffee that he brought. Then the fun part started, Yoshi has very high quality telescopes. We went when there was a full moon and we were able to see the moon in very high detail as well as Saturn and Jupiter and few constellations. We will definitely be coming back when we visit Maui again and we cant wait!!

I didn’t know zip lining would be so dang funny! Give these kids a bonus . For real though, they were informative with jokes to boot. The course was gorgeous, we felt safe, and above all, the guides made SURE to keep the jokes flowing.
Side note: customers need to be tipping more. Homie literally recovered a phone from the sticks and walked out with bloody legs and they gave him an embarrassing tip. But also, like helloooooo they are responsible for your livelihood. TIP GENEROUSLY.

The guys were very friendly and helpful. The guides kept it fun and made sure everyone could get pictures of your group. My wife and I are in our 60’s and have gone on ATV tours before in multiple states but this one was super fun. We’ve never been so dirty, from head to toe. Wear dark colors and bring a good dust mask and no white tennis shoes. We would do it again the next time in Maui.

The initial booking was a challenge. I had tried several times, and three different days to book on the website. With each attempt I received a notice stating there was no availability. I did receive a call from the main office apologizing for the trouble, and I was able to book my preferred day/time. If you find you have the same issue, perhaps calling in might be a good idea, to check.
Our day was a bit of a whirl wind, as our guide, Jacob told us it would be. I didn’t pay for a 24 hour parking pass in Lahaina so, we had to make the first boat back. Jacob got us to the boat on time with no issue. As with all Hawaiian Islands, Lanai is special and has a unique story. We’d never been to this Island before, and visiting it was one of the main reasons I chose Maui as our vacation destination.
I would most definitely recommend taking this day tour. Enjoy the sights by folks who live, work, and can most appreciate this island.

Unfortunately, our tour got downpoured on, and there was not much sunset, but the crew worked to re-accommodate us for a future event.

Yoshi was a great tour guide! He made us feel like he was so happy to share the experience with us. He is very kind and thoughtful and definitely knows all about the national park and the island itself along with all the stars and planets he shows you through his telescope. The views of the sky through the telescope were awesome. Definitely an experience we will never forget! A must do when visiting Maui.

Winter clothes were provided but bring a hat or extra gloves if you get cold easily. Yoshi did a great job of showing us the stars and we saw Saturn too! He even had Krispy Kremes and hot drinks!

Bruce and Kendra were amazing guides! We loved our Lana’i tour, we are so glad we did it. It was great learning about the history and seeing more of the island than just the city and beach. We’d highly recommend this tour and we have told everyone we have encountered about it!
