Great attentive staff. Great venues at Molokini and Turtletown. I swam with a turtle. The food was great- best burger I've had in a while. The boat ride was great. I liked having the option of being out of the sun on the main deck or outside on the the deck or up on top and there was plenty of seating. It was nice having a restroom available. We really enjoyed it and I would highly recommend this trip for all ages. There was a toddler on board and some older people who did not swim but stayed on the boat and still had the option to view fish through the glass bottom window.

I participated in a snorkeling trip to Molokini Island. I had requested transportation, and they arrived on time, allowing us to board the boat without any issues. It took about an hour by boat to reach Molokini Island, and shortly after boarding, we had breakfast. During the trip, Takako gathered us for an explanation. Since we weren't sitting the whole time, I didn't get seasick.
I was incredibly impressed not by the fish, but by the clarity of the water at Molokini Island! I've been to various seas both domestically and internationally, but I've never seen such clear water; it was amazing. It was so clear that it took my breath away.
Afterward, we had lunch, and the burgers we ate on the boat were exceptional! We moved to another spot, and Takako guided us to see sea turtles, so we were able to see them multiple times. Additionally, when we went, dolphins showed themselves to us!
There were many foreigners on the boat, but Takako was always attentive, so it was perfectly fine. I would love to request this again when I visit Maui.
モロキニ島シュノーケルに参加しました。
送迎もお願いしておりましたが時間通りに来て下さって無事船に乗る事が出来ました。
モロキニ島までは船で一時間程で、乗船してすぐ朝食、途中でタカコさんに召集され説明を受けました。座りっぱなしではないので船酔いはしませんでした。
モロキニ島はお魚ではなくその透明度に非常に感動しました!
国内や海外の様々な海に行きましたが、こんなに透明な海は初めてで素晴らしかったです。
透明過ぎて身がすくむ程です。
その後昼食があり船の上で食べるバーガーは別格です!
別ポイントに移動し海ガメもタカコさんが場所を教えて下さるので何度も見られました。
また、私達が行った時はイルカが姿を見せてくれました!
船には外国人も沢山いますが、タカコさんが常に気を使って下さるので全然大丈夫です。
またマウイ島に行く際はお願いしたいです。

This is my third time, but 10 years ago... it was amazing. Five years ago... it was okay. This time... it was the worst. There were hardly any fish or turtles, and many people couldn't see any turtles. The number of boats has increased, and I didn't feel the charm. I don't think I'll go to Molokini on my next trip to Maui.
今回で3回目ですが10年前・・最高 5年前・・まあまあ 今回・・・最低 魚もカメもほとんど居ない、カメを見る事が出来なかった人も多数いました。船の数も増え魅力を感じなかった次回のマウイでは、モロキリには、行かないと思う。
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. However, I sincerely apologize for not being able to provide the service you expected.
Please understand that, as sea turtles and fish are natural creatures, there may be times when you cannot see them. I can imagine how disappointing it must have been not to observe many sea turtles and fish during the highly anticipated Molokini Island snorkeling tour. I hope that the staff's service and the views from the boat left you with at least some good memories.
Thank you very much for taking the time to provide your valuable feedback despite your busy schedule.

This was a tour I had been interested in for a long time, recommended by a senior colleague. It was my second time at Haleakalā.
The first time, I visited Maui for a day trip and drove there. I saw a sky full of stars, but since I didn't have any knowledge about stars and had to catch a flight back, I only looked at the stars for about two minutes while descending, thinking, "Wow, it's beautiful!" before quickly returning to the car.
This time, for my second visit to Haleakalā, I knew from the beginning that it would be a full moon, and I participated in the tour for the first time. I could only see bright stars with the naked eye, but through the telescope, we were shown various stars, searched for Mickey in the full moon, and since we lacked knowledge about stars, we learned a lot from the explanations. Listening to the guide's stories helped reset my mind. Hearing from someone with so many experiences is truly valuable!
Due to my husband's work schedule, I can't plan trips around the new moon in advance, but I hope to go again when the new moon comes around.
I'm grateful to the senior colleague who recommended the tour! Thank you very much, Yamapi-san!!
先輩におすすめされて参加したずっと気になっていたツアーです。ハレアカラは2回目。
1回目は日帰りマウイ島でレンタカーで行きました。この時満天の星空を見ましたが、星の知識がなく、また帰りの飛行機の時間があった為、2分くらい下山途中に見て、あぁ綺麗!と感動して即車内に戻りました。
今回の2回目のハレアカラは、初めから満月だと分かっていてツアーに初参加。明るい星しか肉眼では見えませんが、望遠鏡で色々な星を見せてくれ、満月の月にミッキーをさがしたり、やはり星の知識がない私達は星の解説を聞けて勉強になりました。またガイドさんの話を聞いて心がリセットされました。色んなことを経験されてきた方からのお話は為になります!
旦那の仕事の休みの関係で、新月に狙って旅行の計画を立てることが予め出来ませんが、新月狙ってま
た行けたらいいなと思います。
ツアーをおすすめしてくれた先輩に感謝!山ぴーさん、どうもありがとうございました!!

I participated with three friends.
The process: Since there were participants coming from various resorts on the island, we took a welcoming car and met up with other participants at the meeting point.
After that, we stopped by a supermarket for dinner, where we bought souvenirs like coffee and almond chocolate at a cheaper price than ABC Mart, and then headed to Haleakalā!
During the journey, we climbed the mountain while listening to the guide's explanations and interesting stories.
We took a bathroom break along the way, and since we ascended gradually, I didn't really notice the changes in air pressure and oxygen levels!
Also, the scenery we saw while climbing was very beautiful, and I was taking pictures the whole time!
The summit was very cold, and without the provided warm clothing, it would have been impossible to go outside and enjoy the view.
At night, there were no streetlights at all, and since there were no guardrails on the mountain roads, those who came individually returned before sunset.
I got the impression that going individually is almost impossible.
The sunset and starry sky were more beautiful than anything I had ever seen, and I kept looking up at them (*^_^*)
During the viewing, the guide also provided explanations.
My friends were very satisfied, and we were really glad we participated.
This tour made me want to go to Maui just for it.
友人を含め4人で参加しました。
流れ:島内の各リゾートから参加される方がいるため、お迎えの車に乗って、合流地点で、他の参加者さんと合流しました。
その後、夕飯のためにスーパーによりますが、その時にコーヒーや、アーモンドチョコなどのお土産をABCマートよりも安く購入し、いざハレアカラへ!
道中はガイドさんの説明と、面白い話を聞きながら、山道を登って行きます。
途中、トイレ休憩をしながら、少しずつ登ったため、気圧、酸素濃度の変化もあまり気にならずにすみました!
また、登ってる間に見える景色がとても綺麗で、ずっと写真を撮っていました!
山頂はとても寒く、用意されている防寒具がなければ外に出て景色を眺めるのは無理だな。という感じ。
また夜になると全く街灯がなく、さらに山道にガードレールなどもないため、個人でいらしてた方々はサンセット前に帰っていました。
個人で行くのはほぼ無理だなという印象です。
サンセット、星空は今まで見たことない程の綺麗さで、ずっと見上げてました(*^_^*)
また鑑賞中はガイドさんの説明もあります。
友達達も、大満足で、参加して本当に良かったです。
このツアーのために、わざわざマウイ島に行きたくなるようなツアーでした。

I was initially hesitant to join this tour because I can't swim at all and I'm nearsighted, so I can't see anything without my glasses. However, I participated at the request of my companion. When I asked in advance if it would be okay, I received a response from a Japanese guide named Takako, who assured me that floatation devices and nearsighted snorkeling gear would be provided, so it would be fine. On the day of the tour, she kindly instructed us on how to use the floatation devices on the water, and I was able to enjoy snorkeling somehow. Although we only snorkeled at Molokini due to high waves that day and didn't see many fish or turtles, the beautiful, clear blue sea was stunning. Thank you very much.
私は全く泳げない上に、近視でメガネなしでは何も見えないので、このツアーの参加に前向きではありませんでしたが、連れの希望で参加しました。事前に大丈夫か聞いたところ、タカコさんという日本人ガイドの方が、浮き具や近視のスノーケルが用意されているので大丈夫とご返答いただき、当日も、浮き具の使い方などを海上で丁寧に指導していただき、何とかスノーケリングを楽しむことができました。当日は波が高いとのことでモロキニ一箇所だけのスノーケリングでしたが、魚や亀などはあまり見れませんでしたが、美しい、透明度の高い青い海でした。ありがとうございました。

Had a great time on our sunrise tour. Driver was knowledgeable and talked much of the trip. The sunrise itself was spectacular. You arrive in the dark and I have never seen so many stars. It is definitely a good idea to bring warm clothes. I had a hooded ski jacket and gloves so I was comfortable. On the way back you can see beautiful views you will have missed on the way up due to darkness. Before heading back to your hotel there is a breakfast stop at the golf course. The food was good. We had a great time and recommend this tour for anyone looking to view the sunrise.

Well-trained horses make it enjoyable for beginners to ride.
You can enjoy breathtaking views overlooking the sea on a course that lasts about an hour.
You can also take photos at the viewpoint.
Bringing cameras and other items is allowed.
I think it's a good idea to prepare a shoulder bag that can be fully zipped up to avoid losing anything while on horseback.
よく訓練された馬で、初心者でも乗馬が楽しめます。
小一時間ほどのコースで、海を見下ろせる絶景を楽しめます。
ビュースポットでは写真も撮ってもらえます。
カメラ等も持ち込みOKです。
馬上で落し物がないよう、全てチャックで閉じられる肩掛け鞄等を用意するといいと思います。

We loved our combo (Helicopter/Van) tour of Hana. It is the best way to do it. It is a rather long but beautiful drive to/from Hana so taking a helicopter one way and seeing the sights including Haleakala is best of both worlds. Our guide Scott Ferguson (Scotty) was terrific. He was fun, informative and engaging. The Hana area is so beautiful. Hint: if you plan to swim I suggest you bring reef shoes. This was one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommended!

I visited Lanai Island for the first time. There was a Hawaii I had never seen before, and it felt like being on a completely different planet. The guide only spoke English, but Bruce, our guide, spoke in clear English that was easy for us to understand, so we didn't have any trouble. He provided a lot of detailed information about the history of Lanai Island and its future, which was very educational. If you're going to Maui, I definitely think you should make the trip to Lanai Island!
初めてラナイ島へ行きました。
そこには見たことのないハワイがあり、まるで違う惑星にいるかの様に思える場所がありました。
ガイドさんは英語のみですが、あまり話せない私たちに合わせて、ガイドのブルースがわかりやすい英語で話してくれるので、困る事もありませんし、ラナイ島の歴史や今後の行方など、とても詳しく教えてくださり、ラナイ島を知る勉強になりました。
マウイ島まで行くなら、絶対にラナイ島まで足を運んで欲しいと思います!

The show can be enjoyed in a very atmospheric location. You can appreciate not only the dancers' performances but also the production itself. Additionally, the view from the stage backdrop is beautiful, allowing you to enjoy a meal while watching a lovely sunset. I've been to other luau shows, but the food at this luau was the most delicious I've ever had. I recommend opting for the seating style where you sit on the floor instead of at a table; it's more enjoyable to watch from closer to the stage!
ショーはとても雰囲気の良い場所で見る事ができます。
ダンサーの踊りはもちろん、演出も楽しめます。
またステージバックの景色はとても美しく、綺麗なサンセットを見ながらの食事ができます。
他のルアウショーも良く観に行きますが、ここのルアウショーの食事は今までで一番美味しかったです。
オススメは、イステーブル席ではなく、床に座るスタイルの席にして、ステージ近くで見る方が楽しめますよ!

I participated with my child. I used to be a diver, but I hadn't been in the ocean for quite a long time, so I was worried about my physical condition. However, with a Japanese guide who provided thorough explanations and plenty of floatation devices, I was able to swim without any issues. We also saw three sea turtles. While I didn't feel the same excitement as I had when I saw many corals and fish during my previous diving experiences, the guide was pleasant, and we had a fun time.

It seems as if we were also eating during the cruise before, between and after snorkeling at the two spots chosen for the morning cruise. The end of the cruise was awesome because the captain and crew raised the sails and we sailed back to harbor by the wind. It was amazing watching the crew work at raising the sails. What a great experience for anyone and everyone of all ages.
