Maui
Highly recommend this tour to first timers! First visit to Hawaii and very happy we booked this excursion.
Thank you to all of the crew for making this once in a lifetime adventure the best possible experience! We experienced and saw nature in such a beautiful, protected, and respected way. Amazing.
After a long search we found the ticket booth and looked for a boat. The boat arrives from the previous lunch cruise. After a quick cleanup we were allowed to board. We were then escorted up a metal ladder to the top deck. Remember you have to climb a ladder to get to the top deck. Once seated at very uncomfortable wooden seats with strangers you are given a free drink. Dinner arrives later. The dinner is good. A man sings and plays guitar as you enjoy your dinner. If you later need to use a restroom they are on the lower deck, are old disgusting marine toilets and not at all clean. The view of the Maui coastline is beautiful. I can't imagine what happens if it rains. No shelter. Not at all worth $ 200 plus dollars. Not sure how old the boat is but it sure looks it.
Super easy process. Ask for the Maui Wowie during lunch. Teens loved everything and so did we! Kid/teen friendly! Tons of colorful fish and fun stops!
Mahalo for choosing the Maui Magic and for sharing your experience with us.
What a great way to end our trip! Can't wait to do this again next time!
Sean was a great tour guide. He was very helpful and willing to go the extra mile to help us in any way. I would highly recommend this excursion.
Great experience!! The crew was AMAZING, they were so attentive to all the guest. This is a must experience. Highly recommend Four Winds.
Mahalo for the recommendation and for the review. We hope to see you again!
We had a great time! It was are 1st time Kayaking for all of us, and we got to see a lot ot turtles and sea life! The hike was amazing! Sarah was very friendly and informative with great recommendations for places to visit and places to eat! The hike, lunch ,and water adventure exceeded are expectations! We hope to come back for are 35th anniversary with the whole family and do this tour again!
The crew and the captain were awesome! The issue that makes this review only good is the photographer. After talking with him in length on the boat that we were interested in purchasing photo package, he stuck to others on the boat for majority of photos. Great honeymoon experience with no photos to look back on!
Every things was perfect!! The staff,The food and entertainment was awesome!! Thank you all
Our guide was very nice and knowledgeable but I think it would have been more fun exploring on our own, not a ton to see on Lanai but if you go rent your own jeep for the day.
We had so much fun in the aqua ball and on the zipline. All of the kids thought it was the best adventure they had in a long time! Kids are 8 and 6 and it was perfect for their ages.
We had a great time. Our guides were fun and patient with us!
My husband and I had a fantastic time on the sunset dinner cruise!
Honestly, we were happy to be on the ocean and enjoy the beautiful sunset. We were pleasantly surprised with the dinner, drinks, and excellent service. The crew was friendly, helpful, and just fantastic—especially the captain who went over and beyond finding whales for us to see. The singer/guitar player was outstanding. We enjoyed dancing on the bough of the boat.
Thank you for helping to make our first trip to Maui more memorable!
Arrive at least half an hour before departure. There is paperwork to fill out, temp checks etc. Nice ferry ride. 45 minutes. Saw a whale in late April! You can walk to the beach from the ferry landing on Lanai.
Overall the tour was great. We hit all of the major stops and the guide offered to take us to additional stops along the way. Was an incredible and breathtaking trip! Only one star off since the driver was a bit overzealous about being punctual. I completely understand (and appreciate!) the need for the group members to be on time; however, the stern tone from the guide at 7:01AM for a 7AM pick up was a bit of a rough start to the day. Nevertheless, would recommend this trip to anyone.
Aloha, and mahalo nui for the 5-star review! It was a pleasure to have you. We certainly hope you can visit again :-) A hui hou.
John was an amazing guide - he made our morning!! He gave a comprehensive overview of what to expect and safety protocols, making us feel at ease the entire time as new snorklers. He kept us entertained and laughing the whole trip. We saw two large turtles, lots of fish and coral, and several other interesting creatures. Would highly recommend this trip!
Isaac gave us a wonderful tour of Lanai filled with interesting facts and history. His intimate knowledge as a resident there was very interesting.
Had a great snorkel morning with the kids in Lanai. The staff was very informative and pleasant. Very well organized and nice activity for the entire family. A great option to spend a morning while visiting Maui.
Warmest Mahalo for Your 5 Star Review of Kaanapali Ocean Adventures to Lanai. Greatly Appreciated
The crew was very friendly, fun, informative, and made this a safe experience for all. The food was delicious! One of the divers showed us rare sea life and the captain spotted whales for us to see. Although we weren’t able to go to Molokini Crater due to weather conditions (we could see this from Coral Gardens that it would be rough that way), we still had an incredible experience. We saw tons of sea life, got great pictures, and had terrific hospitality. Highly recommend this charter!
Aloha Kimberly,
Thank you for your review! I'm happy to read that you had an incredible experience with us on board the Four Winds II! We appreciate the recommendation and we hope to see you on board with us again next time you vacation on Maui!
Mahalo,
Nikki
Had amazing time. Went APIRL 2nd 2021. The music was great. Captain was awesome. He stop the boat numinous time so we can see the whales. Which was awesome concerning it was at the end of whale season. The food was fantastic! Definitely would recommend.
Molokini was beautiful. Turtle Town had murky water. Did not even stop but we spent extra time at Molokini. Got in some whale watching too and had two whales swim right up to the boat. Great staff, very helpful and courteous.
Outstanding in every way!! The crew was great and the boat was first class!!
This is a don"t miss adventure for Maui!
Well worth it.
The food was very good and the family serving style was great, as opposed to buffets. The entertainment was wonderful and told the Polynesian story well. And the view was breathtaking.
The guides were amazing with our kids. Such great fun foe an afternoon. I highly recommend!
We have had years of whale watch trips. Some were spectacular and others were just OK. This trip was OK. Not much activity from the whales. We normally go out on catamarans but this was a very large boat.
Whales, fish, whales whales whales. This was awesome. Small great group! Fantastic snuba instructor from gotcha snuba. Delicious food. Overall great experience.
Mahalo for the review! We hope to see you again!
Aloha,
Nikki
Super fun trip! you even get to plant a tree! Not for those who get car sick but it was so fun!
The Maui Princess cruise was exceptional- the food was fantastic and captain, service and performer were terrific. We were especially surprised that the food was of great quality and served just right. We had the prime rib and the Mahi Mahi. Both were perfect! The captain stopped for some whale sittings. Would highly recommend supported this cruise as they were off for 11 months and now only go out Wednesday’s- this was their forth sailing since reopening. Highly recommend this for any occasion!
The jungle treasure hunt was the PERFECT way to spend some quality time in a different part of Maui with my daughter!
Aloha and mahalo for joining us. We are happy to hear you had a great time! Thank you for sharing it with other travelers :-) A hui hou (until w meet again)
