Expeditions - Maui to Lanai Ferry Boat Shuttle from Maalaea Harbor & Manele Bay

Loved the tour, well planned and executed

Reviewed by: ignacio hermosilla, 2024/03/16

Loved the tour, it’s well timed as it felt I had enough time in water at both Molokini and turtle town. The crew is very good and they really make sure you are well taken care of.

This is also an excellent opportunity for whale spotting, I did a whale spotting tour as well and this one was better.

The slide is awesome and everything is very family friendly.

Discover Lanai - Exclusive Maui to Lanai Day Trip with Hiking & Snorkeling

Kindest crew in Maui!

Reviewed by: Denise and Melanie, 2024/01/31

This day trip to Lanai’i was an experience my wife and I will never forget! Captain Joe and his crew are knowledgeable, enthusiastic and attentive! On the way we were able to spot a manta ray just as we left the dock and several whales on the way to Lanai’i where we got off the boat and snorkeled. We were also served a delicious lunch! Check out the photos the photographer takes too. She is awesome!

We’d like to send a special shout-out to Coby aka “Utah” who wins the Kindest Crew-member award for ensuring I was safe and still able to participate so my wife could fully enjoy snorkeling! We can’t tell you how much that meant to us, thanks again!

Discover Lanai - Exclusive Maui to Lanai Day Trip with Hiking & Snorkeling

Great crew!!

Reviewed by: Amanda, 2024/01/06

The experience was amazing! We were super well fed, the crew was so knowledgeable, we saw so many whales along the way, and had a great time!
The captain was super friendly and was great at keeping everyone on track for time. Chad really went the extra mile by learning all of the passenger’s names. Mark gave lovely whale knowledge and some history of the Trilogy. Justin made sure we were always with a drink and was extremely polite!

Will definitely be doing this experience again!

Lanai Snorkel Tour & Dolphin Watch Cruise with Lunch - PacWhale Eco Adventures

Such a fun and beautiful trip!

Reviewed by: Vicky, 2023/12/12

We had so much fun during our Lanai trip. We saw whales, and dolphins on the way there and our way back to the harbor. The snorkeling was great and the staff were so caring and knowledgeable! The lunch was also a highlight for me, I wasn’t expecting such a nice spread. I cannot recommend it enough, it was truly worth it.

Lanai Island Guided 4x4 SUV Sightseeing Trekker Tour with Maui to Lanai Ferry

Easy way to see Lana'i

Reviewed by: Beth H, 2023/11/28

The early morning ferry was a smooth ride to the island. We were met by our guide, Russ, for the half day tour and along with another couple made our way into town to pick up a light breakfast at the local coffee spot. We stopped at Garden of the Gods which is like being on a whole different planet. The views were outstanding! The red dirt road out the GoG is rough and we were glad to have someone who was familiar with the area driving. We went on to see Shipwreck Beach. Again the dirt roads out to the beach were rough and even the Jeep tours from the Four Seasons were going at a snails pace while we manuvered our way around then. We parked in an area just shy of Shipwreck Beach where our guide's family had once had land, where some of the buildings still stand and walked the quiet beach strewn with old lava flows and had a good view of the wreck. Russ showed us how to tell if a coconut washed up on the beach was still good or waterlogged and even opened one up for us...it was a little old but still delicious. The drive through town was short and sweet...there's not a lot of town to see...and he dropped us off to explore the area. We, unfortunately didn't make it up to the Cat Sanctuary but we did hire a shuttle (he called and made the arrangements for pick up, $10/person) and went to Hulopoe Beach for the rest of the day. While at the beach I recommend following the beach to the east and checking out the many tidepools then walk just a short distance to see Sweetheart Rock. The walk back to the harbor is only about 10-15 minutes but get there early to get a good seat on the top deck. The ferry ride back was a little rougher compared to the morning. It was a great day and Lana'i, at least to me, is a must do because of the super chill vibe and aloha compared to any of the other islands.

  • Sweetheart Rock

  • View of Molokai from Garden of the Gods

  • Arriving in Mehele Harbor

  • The one gas station on the island. Good food too!

Discover Lanai - Exclusive Maui to Lanai Day Trip with Hiking & Snorkeling

Great Excursion

Reviewed by: Andrew, 2023/10/19

The highlight of our trip. The ride over, while lengthy due to the fires in Lahaina, was great. The captain was funny, his name was Turtle. We saw dolphins and the snorkeling on Lanai was awesome. The trip was worth the cost, without even taking in to consideration the great lunch we were served. That chicken is amazing. You also get to visit a pretty exclusive beach, it’s shared with the Four Seasons Lanai, that is nice because your group is almost all the only people out there. Next trip we will definitely do this, or a trip to Molokini Crater. Either way, we will definitely use Trilogy again. They are fantastic.

Lanai Island Guided 4x4 SUV Sightseeing Trekker Tour with Maui to Lanai Ferry

More than Hoped For!

Reviewed by: Jay S., 2023/10/13

Our trip to Lana’i was amazing!

It was an early morning to catch the first ferry of the day. Plenty of seating, plenty of room for our bags. We were off to Lana’i.
Greeted at the docks by our guide, Russ. He went above and beyond. We had bottled water and pastries waiting for us.
We hit shipwreck beach, Garden if the gods, and the Cat Sanctuary. Which is what I expected, but we also had great photo spots, local history and stories. Got to see the beautiful Lanai City. Tour even allowed us time to walk the city, have lunch, do a little shopping. Lastly we got dropped off at the beach, which was the icing on the cake. Beautiful, quiet, safe beach. Great snorkeling. Great tide pool to relax in.

I hate leaving a great review because the whole experience was so wonderful, I don’t want to spoil it. But, because of days like this one, I have so much love and respect for this island and its people. This day was my dream come true. I look forward to returning to the island of Lana’i.
Thank you is not enough. Blessings to this island and its people.

Russ was a great tour guide, went above & beyond for us.

Reviewed by: Vicki M., 2023/10/12

The ferry ride from Maui to Lanai was great. Our tour guide, Russ, met us as we disembarked from the ferry. He provided a great deal of information as he drove us to the different sights on Lanai. After lunch, he dropped us off at the Lanai Cat Sanctuary. We spent a full two hours at the sanctuary interacting with all of the different felines. As a cat lover, I was in heaven. It's very heart-warming to see people making a difference in the lives of the feline and bird populations of Lanai. Russ, then picked us up and returned us to the ferry for our return trip back to Maui. It was a long day (saw the sunrise & sunset) but worth it.

We had a great tour of Lanai by Male- it was an amazing experience. Male was a great guide. So pleasant and knowledgeable. He took us to Shipwreck Beach and Garden of the Gods, then gave us a tour of Lanai City. The SUV was very comfortable and easily navigated the roads to the island’s site.

This trip was for sure one of our highlights of our vacation. Captain Mario and his crew was positively amazing. Full of energy and all displayed that they love what they do. They catered to everyone with a smile and made sure all were taken care of to the best of their ability. Attention to detail, safety and making sure we all had a great time was achieved to the highest level possible. They even did a great job maneuvering through tougher seas than normal on the way back. A job masterfully done gentlemen! Would totally suggest this tour to anyone. Mahalo!!!!!

Lanai Island Guided 4x4 SUV Sightseeing Trekker Tour with Maui to Lanai Ferry

Don't expect much

Reviewed by: Kathy, 2023/07/07

The ride to Lanai and back was very choppy. So much so that we were drenched when we sat on the second level outside. We didn't have much time on our 3 hour tour to see much and locations are spread out. We only saw Shipwreck beach, which was underwhelming. We then had lunch in town and it was time to go. If you are prone to motion sickness, skip it. The ferry ride and the 4x4 ride will not sit well with you.

Trip to the Cat Sanctuary

Reviewed by: Liza, 2023/07/01

The Ferry was clean and the trip was well organized. I couldn’t give it a five star review because the waves were extremely choppy and the ride was nearly unbearable on the way back. And, although there were “puke bags” in our seat on the way over, there were none on the way back. I had a motion sickness patch in place, but it wasn’t enough to keep me from feeling like I might be sick. Fortunately I did not get sick, but I was so stressed about not having a bag just in case. There were some bags on the back counter, but it was unsafe to get up and move around.

The boat ride was awesome. The island was beautiful. The food good. For the price point for this trip $312 a person I felt they hounded for tips and extra money for pictures. It was off putting. My family of 4 was $1248 that should be enough for the excursion. Captain pushed the issue and wanted to give staff Venmo accounts. Ugh. I am not cheap and planned for Hawaii expenses but the hounding was over the top.
