Maui Mountain Activities ATV Ride Tour Adventure with Oceanfront Trail
First ATV ride
Activity Date: 2021/09/10 | Posted on: 2021/09/17

I cancelled our hotel luau reservation and booked this 2 seater ATV for my husband and I and our daughter and her best friend! I thought it would be more fun for my family to experience this for the very first time. I saw the blogger on YouTube and explained about using this company. The staff were very nice and pleasant to talk to. This was our very first time be on the island of Maui and able to experience riding the ATV. We had a lot of fun! Our tour guide who I called “Aloha” or Brandon was very informative and even extended the help of taking our family photos! We liked the farm where the ATV were situated. We did not expect we will see many animals here! I highly recommend using the Maui Activities Company. We shall return to visit Maui and ride the ATV again!

We had a very picturesque horse ride through the coast of Maui. The horses were amazing and friendly and the guides were charming. I honestly didn't want the ride to end.

Discover Lanai Day Trip from Maui, Hulopoe Bay Snorkeling & Sweetheart Rock
Fantastical!!
Activity Date: 2021/09/10 | Posted on: 2021/09/12

Thoroughly enjoyed the trip from beginning to end. The food was plenty and very well done. The lunch especially made you feel like you were royalty. The crew served everything. There was plenty to go around. They were all like a well oiled machine working in harmony to get everyone taken care of. The snorkeling was really nice because it wasn't crowded. We had the whole cove to ourselves. The hike was just right. The ride back was a wild one thanks to the wind. They had even supplied supplies at lunch like ginger and dramamine for sea sickness. I give them 5 stars. Best tour I have ever been on. Thanks to you all.

ハレアカラ山頂 夕日鑑賞+星空観測ツアー 1名~参加OK!グループや家族連れにおすすめの貸切プランあり<午後/日本語ガイド>
I was moved!
感動しました!
Activity Date: 2021/08/20 | Posted on: 2021/09/12

In August, my family of four participated. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there were no other participants, just us. We received a notification that the weather on the scheduled day was deteriorating, so we had to change our arrival to the following day. Thanks to that, we were able to see a beautiful sunset.

During the stargazing afterward, it was very enjoyable to listen to Yamapi's explanations while looking at the surface of the moon. It was a bit disappointing that the full moon was too bright, making it hard to see the stars clearly, but we were able to feel the power of the moon!

It became the best memory of our time in Maui!

8月に家族4人で参加しました。コロナ禍という事もあり、他の参加者はおらず私達だけでした。予定していた日の天候が崩れると連絡を頂き、急きょ到着翌日へ変更となりました。おかげ様で美しいサンセットを見ることができました。
その後の星空観測では、ヤマピーさんの説明を聞きながら月の表面を見たりとても楽しかったです。満月が近く、月が明るすぎてあまりハッキリと星が見えなかったのが少し残念でしたが、月のパワーをもらえました!
マウイ島での最高の思い出になりました!

Ernie was our tour guide and he was awesome! So informative and knowledgeable and educated us the entire time about the plants, fruits and land. You left feeling connected to the island and wanting more! So welcoming, so great. Besides the many waterfalls, black sand beach and Ernie as our guide it was well worth every penny!

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures
Must do activity with these guys..!!
Activity Date: 2021/09/06 | Posted on: 2021/09/09

A first-time snorkeler with basic swimming experience, they taught us really well how to do it right from basics & also kept an eye to guide us in the ocean. Only regret is they should allow to hold the rope anchored for people who panic in the vast ocean, coz it takes 5-10 minutes for people with no swimming background to get familiar with the unpredictable ocean. My wife was not allowed to touch the rope & she couldn't enjoy snorkeling with us for the rest of the trip. Good lunch & breakfast. Overall they do good if you know a bit. Great locations..unfortunately no turtles.

My wife and I had an amazing time on this private tour of the road to Hana. Ana did an amazing job and was super cool and friendly!! Got to hit a lot of the spots we wanted to see, including the bamboo forest, swimming in waterfalls, tidal pools, lunch and banana bread from Aunty Sandy's. Sampled some fresh guava off the the side of the road Awesome views. Also, Ana, loved talking movies and tv shows with you! Great times!!

Private Road to Hana Tours Maui - Waterfalls, Rainforests & Coastal Scenic Drive with Expert Guide
Hana Road
Activity Date: 2021/09/07 | Posted on: 2021/09/08

We had an amazing personalized tour of Maui driving through the Hana Road. Gus and AnnaLisa both provided a fantastic narrative of the beautiful island of Maui from the lush rain forest to the beach and circled entire island. Stopped at wonderful places for local banana bread to ice cream and BBQ lunch as well as local island coffee. Enjoyed hearing about Maui’s culture, history, plants and flowers. Not to mention the breathe tasting scenery with personalized photos. Very social distance friendly and felt completely safe throughout the tour. Highly recommended.

Lanai Island Guided 4x4 SUV Sightseeing Trekker Tour with Maui to Lanai Ferry
Lanai Guided Tour
Activity Date: 2021/08/31 | Posted on: 2021/09/06

Awesome tour with Bruce! He provided many interesting facts and information about the island. We saw areas of the island that we would have missed if we were on our own. He offered us the opportunity to spend extra time at the cat sanctuary with over 600 cats when we told him we liked cats, such an awesome place. I mentioned we hadn’t seen many turtles (honu) and he took us to a beach that had about 6 right along the shore. Though not guaranteed, we were able to see Maui, Molokai, Oahu, Big Island of Hawaii, Molokini and Kahoolawe from Lanai (per Bruce he’s only seen Oahu a few times from Lanai).
Definitely would recommend this tour!

Nice tour with beautiful views! Great for beginners.
Activity Date: 2021/08/31 | Posted on: 2021/09/05

Docking a star due to starting over an hour late, as well as getting a horse that was older and clearly needed to rest during the tour (other horses were just fine).

Otherwise, the experience was really nice and the views were amazing. Great for beginners, more experienced riders may not enjoy as much (they probably wouldn't book this).

Kinda wish they allowed us to trot/gallop a little.

Great for family and friends!

Lahaina Semi-Submersible Glass Bottom Boat Adventure - Maui Reefdancer [CLOSED]
Neat!
Activity Date: 2021/08/25 | Posted on: 2021/08/30

The overall experience was unique. It was neat to see the ocean floor go by as we moved to the stopping spot. Our guide was pointing out all the fish & telling us the names of them. It was a rocky ride, so be sure to get some motion sickness bands for the journey. There are divers that bring different types of marine life to the window for a closer look which was neat for some things you wouldn't have the chance to see up close.

We had a great experience with Trilogy to Lanai. The captain and crew were welcoming and accommodating from the first moment to the very end. We were cared for and serviced for all beverages (coffee, juice, water, cocktails, you name it!) from morning until the last moment as well as with all of our meals, plus some surprise snacks. For being a group excursion, we were pleasantly surprised with how fun and completely relaxing this day was! We only wish it could have been longer… but next time, we’ll sign up for that. I highly recommend!

Hana by Air & Land - Helicopter Flight & Semi-Private Sightseeing Tour Combo
Great Excursion
Activity Date: 2021/08/03 | Posted on: 2021/08/28

This is the way to do the Road to Hana. We did the late trip, meeting at the airport at 10:45am. We flew out at 11:30, landing in Hana just after 12. The flight was spectacular and our pilot was knowledgable and personable without being overwhelming.

We landed and met our driver who took us to the park for a great lunch. Our driver was exceptional and we learned a lot on our trip back.

I've done this as drive out and back, but the flight followed by the drive is the way to go.

Excellent!

One of the best experience in Maui! Me and my boyfriend had a blast relaxing and watching a sunset. The crew was amazing and chilled. You didn’t even have to leave your place because the girls were all the time checking on you if you need anything from the bar. The drinks were strong which was surprising (in a very good way). The snack was okay and the music playing absolutely the best they could choose for that kind of cruise! I recommend 100%, when I come back to Maui, definitely gonna do that again!

Maui Adventure Lanai Snorkel & Dolphin Watch Ocean Raft Tour with Lunch
Unbelievable Experience
Activity Date: 2021/08/20 | Posted on: 2021/08/28

This half-day snorkel adventure was one to remember! Not only did we see schools of beautiful fish at each reef, we were able to swim with sea turtles at the second location. As we were leaving, pods of spinner dolphins surrounded us which was a once in a lifetime experience. The captain and her first mate were friendly, energetic, knowledgeable, and had a fantastic sense of humor! The lunch that was provided was also outstanding! I would HIGHLY recommend this trip to anyone!!!!

Maui Adventure Lanai Snorkel & Dolphin Watch Ocean Raft Tour with Lunch
Best trip we’ve ever taken on Maui!
Activity Date: 2021/08/17 | Posted on: 2021/08/19

Captain Cary and Shannon are a mighty crew of 2! Cary is a good Texas boy who has lived on Maui for many years… But that Texas hospitality shines through! The man is packed with personality, and genuinely loves his job. He and Shannon both shared so many fun facts and interesting details during our trip. They packed lunch and breakfast for everyone which were outstanding and could not have been friendlier nicer or more accommodating the entire time start to finish! When our original destination was less than ideal he explained to the passengers why it would be in our best interest to go someplace else and he was exactly right! I’ve never encountered more knowledgeable or happy go lucky and fun loving captain. The boat is small so you will have lots of time to interact with Cary and Shannon and he will get more time in the water than on any other cruise. They know where to look for all the things you want to see… You will not be disappointed. If you only book one thing on Maui book this charter!!!
