We had an amazing trip! our tour guide was very helpful and informative. It was wonderful to see so many historical sights and learn so much about Hawaiian culture. Visiting the Arizona and Missouri were both truly unique and unforgettable experiences! I would highly recommend this trip to anyone!

I read a lot of books about WWII, and I've also watched many documentaries about WWII. It was such a rewarding experience to visit one of the most historically important sites in America. You can see where WWII started for the United States, as well as, where the Japanese surrendered (On the USS Missouri). If you are in Hawaii, visiting Pearl Harbor is a must. Even if you are not a history buff, the historical significance of Pearl Harbor is something that should not be overlooked.

This was a very time. The guides were a little stiff at first but loosened up enough for all to enjoy it. The sights were fantasitc as was the snorkling. We saw 2 species of dolphins and many whales. The snorkling was great. The raft has a toliet so that too was a plus.

We found the tour to be everything we expected. Apart from some delays with pick up from the airport/Honolulu, all else proceeded as planned. The memorial experience was very emotional yet rewarding and an experience not to be missed.
The remainder of the tour was most interesting during the sightseeing in the area and our tour guide kept us well informed regarding the history etc.

My husband and I were amazed at the professionalism. We were picked up promptly at our hotel, taken to the airport, where we were met by another member of your staff, got our boarding passes, and were on our way. Our tour guide Ed, in Oahu was delightful--funny, informative, and knowledgeable. When our plane landed back in Maui, a driver was waiting to return us to the Hyatt. Great trip, great time!

This is the second time for my wife and I. This year we brought our 14 year old son with us. We were lucky enough to see a mother whale and her calf along with plenty of dolphins, turtles, and colorful fish. The staff was very friendly and took very good care of us. I would highly recommend this activity to any party looking for fun and adventure. We will rebook this activity on our next trip to Maui.

A few years ago, I participated in this tour with my family, a total of 11 people. It was a lot of fun. My family enjoyed snorkeling and beach volleyball, while I relaxed in the shade, forgetting the daily hustle and bustle. I thought it was a tour where people of various ages, from my 1-year-old niece to my father-in-law in his 70s, could enjoy themselves in their own ways. The best memory was when we returned to port, sailing into the sunset; the atmosphere on the boat was wonderful. I definitely want to recommend this to honeymooners.
This year, it will be just the five of us: my husband and I, our daughter and her husband, and our grandchild. This will be our seventh time on the Trilogy cruising tour (and our second time to Lanai). The reason we choose Trilogy is that we don't get seasick. I had a tough experience once on another company's boat in Maui, where I got seasick. If you think you might not do well on a boat, please give this a try. I promise you will create wonderful memories.
何年か前に、このツアーに参加しました。私と家族、総勢11人で。楽しかったです。家族は、シュノーケルやビーチバレーをして楽しみ、私は、木陰で日頃の喧騒を忘れ、ゆったりと過ごしました。1歳の姪から70歳過ぎた義父まで、さまざまな年齢の者が、それぞれの楽しみ方ができるツアーだと思いました。一番の思い出は、帰港のとき、夕焼けの中を帆を立てていく船上は、とてもムードが良かったです。ハネムーナーには、是非、お薦めしたいです。
今年は、私たち夫婦と娘夫婦と孫の5人です。
トリロジーのクルージング・ツアーは、今年で7回目(ラナイ島へは2度目)になります。トリロジーを選ぶのは、やはり酔わないからです。マウイで、一度、他社の船で、酔って、辛い思いをした経験があるからです。船は苦手と思っておられる人は、是非、参加してみてください。素晴らしい思い出をお約束します。

The tour of Pearl Harbor is one of a kind! I've always wanted to see the USS Arizona and it felt like a dream come true being out there. We also had the best tour guide! Cousin Ben you rock! He wasn't even scheduled to be our tour guide that day, but in the end he took care of us for over 12 hours. It was an Amazing day!!
Visit the USS Arizona EARLY to get there before all the other tourists! It gets crowded fast!

This was my first time to Oahu and I really enjoyed the tour. The Driver was waiting at the airport for us and was very friendly. He explained the sights to us and guided us thru Pearl Harbor and the Missouri. The only negative thing was that we were not booked on a return flight to Maui until 735pm. The tour was over at 5:00 pm Some people on our bus had flights returning to Maui @ 6:30 pm, so these people had to get to the airport for their flight. The driver dropped the people from the tour bus that had the 7:35pm flights at a restaurant so we could eat while he took the 4 people who had 6;30 pm flights back to the airport. There were 12 people left at Ruby Tuesdays to eat or just sit and wait for the driver to return. I would have preferred to stay longer in Waikiki or have done some more sightseeing instead of just sitting there waitng for the bus driver to return from the airport.

I was with my mother during this vacation. She and I went to Maui as part of a medical convention. Our tour guide was "Ed" and he was just as great as I had previously read about him on this VERY SITE!! Ed is very knowledgeable about all of Hawaii, not just the areas that you will go to. He spent a great deal of time talking to us about Hawaiian culture as well as the tour route information.
First off we were picked up at our hotel by the tour company and transported to the Maui airport promptly by the timing described in our confirmation email. We then flew to Oahu and met Ed. This process is made easier for the tour guide and you by stickers that you are supposed to wear, it helps the guides find you. We then went to Pearl Harbour as the first part of our trip. Pearl Harbour was very moving as I suspected it would be. It is an experience to be there and unless you are a small child, I am sure all teenager aged upwards would be moved by the sites, the movie, the wall and the actua

Tour was OK! Pearl Harbor definitely was memorable, although on-site tour guide at USS Missouri was too interested in his own knowledge. USS Arizona Memorial was nice to see, but otherwise disappointing. Our tour guide, Nappy, was very informative and pleasurable. Alot of down time, though! 1 1/2 hours on Waikiki (dressed for touring) was a bit disconcerting. 1 1/2 hours wandering around several food establishments, waiting to go back to the airport, was a waste. Overall, very costly for what we got! Inter-island airline prices are cheaper individually, and, I'm sure that a self-guided tour could be arranged easily.

We didn't get to do alot but we still flew to Oahu and toured the city of honolulu. The Staff was exceptional and we are going to go through this Company for all of our tours next year. They are a class act. Thanks for everything.

Ive been on this twice already!! Went with some buddies and we didn't realize that we were going to another island, the first time. Lanai is so beautiful with lots of reef fishes and the bluest water I have ever seen. Oh and we also saw some whales, the second time. Everyone on the crew is super awesome and really took care of us. Will be seeing you guys again ... hopefully sooner than later. lol.

Our tour driver, ED, was wonderful! He made the day extremely enjoyable. We found that being part of the tour made our day stress free. We did not have to worry about driving in a city that we were unfamiliar with. We also saw sites that we would not have seen otherwise. Ed kept our group on time so that we could make the most of our day.

Our tour guide made our day at Pearl Harbor and everywhere we went. His name is ED not Mr. ED. He had so much first hand knowledge and was just so well read and history educated. He was amazing and what a memory. We could have not asked for more of a history buff.
I do have suggestions for one area that left the trip a little flat at the end. I would have liked to have spent more time at Pearl Harbor(like to do the museum) and less time stopped in downtown Honolulu. I loved the bus trip around the city with all the mastery of Ed talking to us but we just stopped to long in town. Then my one thing that left me flat. We got to the airport just in time to hear a flight called for our destination (reminding everyone that we had been us since 4:00 am) and this was NOT our flight. We had to wait another 2-1/2 hours and our flight was not on time. It was not a good end to a perfect day. I would suggest that the trip to Honolulu be cut short so that the flight could be made more

I went during the New Year. Despite that, we were the only two Japanese people there. There were no staff who spoke Japanese, but one staff member, who was married to a Japanese person, cheerfully talked to us, and the other staff members were very attentive since we were the only Japanese guests.
It was whale watching season, so during the cruise, the staff would spot whales and let us know. On the way to Lanai Island, they gathered the participants once to give an overview, during which they mentioned that there were still seven spots available for dolphin watching. Since it was in English, I wasn't very confident in my listening skills, and while I hesitated, the spots filled up. Later, when I asked someone who participated, they said it was very cute, and I regretted not signing up.
After returning to Japan and reviewing this page again, it seems that the upgrade "Blue Water Adventure Rafting" was what they were referring to.
On Lanai Island, all the kids were enjoying snorkeling. We found it a bit cold, so we didn't go into the water, but we enjoyed relaxing in the shade and exploring the rocky areas to find small fish.
The food was also very delicious, and they served yakisoba! I think it's a tour where you can experience a variety of things all at once.
お正月に行きました。にも関わらず、日本人は私たち2人だけでした。日本語を話すスタッフはいませんでしたが、奥さんが日本人だというスタッフが一人いて陽気に話しかけてくれたり、他のスタッフも日本人が私たちだけということもあってとても気にかけてくださいました。
ホエールウォッチングのシーズンだったので、クルーズの途中にスタッフがクジラを見つけては教えてくれました。
ラナイ島へ向かう途中に、一度参加者を集めてひととおり説明をしてくれたのですが、その中でドルフィンウォッチングの席がまだ7人分空いているといったようなことを言っていました。英語だったのであまり聞き取りに自信がなくて尻込みしているうちに定員オーバーになってしまいました。あとで参加した人に聞いたら、とても可愛かったそうで、思い切って申し込めばよかったと後悔しました。
日本に帰ってきてこのページを再度見直したら、アップグレードの「ブルー・ウォーター・アドベンチャー・ラフティング」というのがそれだったようです。
ラナイ島では子供たちはみんなシュノーケルをして楽しんでいました。私たちはちょっと寒かったので海には入りませんでしたが、木陰でのんびりしたり、岩場を散策して小さな魚を見つけたりして楽しみました。
食事もとてもおいしくて、やきそばも出ました!
一度にいろんなことが体験できるツアーだと思います。

The ferry to Lanai was great. The trip over in the morning was relatively smooth. Coming home, however, at 4:30 p.m., was a wild ride! Very choppy, huge swells, but actually a lot of fun! That is if you weren't sitting on the side of the boat that got drenched with each swell...A group of people sitting next to us said that you could have charged extra for the roller coaster ride! haha As we pulled into the harbor at Lahaina we were blessed with a gorgeous double rainbow!

I flew directly into Maui but wanted to see Pearl Harbor. This tour was the perfect opportunity! They arranged the flight to O'ahu and a nice, small bus with large windows to transport the group through the day and deliver us back to the airport on time. Our guide was excellent and entertaining! Be prepared for a long, full day but return with a complete experience of Pearl Harbor and a narrated bus ride through many sight of Honolulu. Lunch on Wikiki was a riot! The tour was interesting and well organized but allowed me the opportunity for some individual exploration and relaxation.
