Turtle Town & Molokini Snorkel Tour with Breakfast & Lunch - Aloha Blue Charters

This Excursion does NOT Disappoint

Reviewed by: Happy in Paradise

We take this excursion to Molikini and Turtle Island every time we visit Maui. The crew of the catamaran, Capt Fish, David and Gary were amazing. They kept us safe, hydrated with water (or adult beverages), and made sure everyone that got in the water, got out of the water.

They also had a professional photographer who made sure everyone had a grand time, and preserved it on a CD you will not believe. The colors light up and we are glad he was along. We didn't have to worry about taking pictures.

We saw lots of whales, beautiful fish, but were a bit short on the turtles.

The selection of meats, cheeses and salad for lunch were a surprise. The sandwiches were easy to assemble, the bread was fresh, and it was just really good.

Go and enjoy!

Drums of the Pacific Luau with Open Bar at Kaanapali Hyatt Regency Maui

Not my choice

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

My husband and I have been to the Old Lahaina Luau and prefer it to this one hands down. Drums of the Pacific seemed corny, as another reviewer posted. The emcee sounded like a barker for a side show..."and now the GRRREEAATT, the FaNTAAAASSSTIC, So-And-So (can't remember the name of the dancer) performing the ...whatever. My brother and his wife, first time visitors, were with us and enjoyed it. We didn't tell them any different so as not to spoil their evening. For first timers, it's OK but if you want culture and history, Old Lahaina Luau is far better.

This was an ultimate favorite trip with Hawaii activities. The most interesting part for us was the star sky and our two guides Greg and Chris. They were so impressive good to tell about the stars and volcanoes. So Hawaii activities be sure to keep those two guys as loooong as possible. Worth every penny!

I was moved. 感動しました

Reviewed by: ぽちき

The sunset was beautiful, but I was also impressed by the magnificence of the night sky! The meal was a delicious makunouchi bento, which was a relief for my stomach after eating so much bread. The guide's slightly poignant stories were moving and felt like a cleansing for my heart.

However, those with a slight cold should be cautious! I ended up with acute aerotitis media and had to have my eardrum surgically opened after returning home.

Next time, I would love to see the summer night sky!

夕日もさることながら、夜空の素晴らしさも感激しました!
食事もおいしい幕の内弁当で、パン食続きだった胃にはありがたかったです。
ガイドの方のちょっとしんみりと考えさせられるお話も私的には心が洗い流されるようで感動しました。

ただ、鼻風邪気味の方は要注意!急性航空性中耳炎になってしまい、帰国してから鼓膜を切開しました。

今度は夏の夜空も見てみたいな!と思います。

If you are feeling under the weather, climbing to 3,000 meters may worsen your symptoms due to the change in air pressure. Please consult us before your ascent. How have you been feeling since then? I am concerned.

風邪気味のかたは3000メートルに登りますので、気圧の関係で症状が悪くなる事もあります。
是非登る前にご相談下さい。その後具合は如何ですか?心配しております。

I chose the four winds II because of the glass bottom viewing. We are a family of 4 and 2 swim and 2 do not. All had a great time. Snorkeling was great and saw some whales and turtles on our way back. The pulled pork sandwiches they serve onboard after snorkeling were the best. Would do this again.

Reviewed by: Nick

Our guide Glenn was really great. Not only was he a excellent driver ( and the mountain driving can be challenging), he was very knowlegable about Maui, Hawaii and talked us through most of the tour. He was very polite, informative and over all was great. We were on time for everything and he kept everyone interested. I'm glad we chose to do this, because being our first time in Hawaii I would not have wanted to drive the mountain in the early hours of the morning. I would definitely go back again. The Haleakala sunrise and crater are a wonder to be seen. Thanks Glenn for making it even more enjoyable.

It was good. 良かったです。

Reviewed by: maui001

Unfortunately, we couldn't see the sunset, but we were able to see the Milky Way and many shooting stars! I've participated in various tours abroad, but I was surprised by the attentive service of our guide! They provide blankets, coats, and gloves, but I wish I had worn tights or long socks to keep my feet a bit warmer. There were some rocky areas, but if you're confident about not twisting your ankle, I think it's totally fine to wear heels. I highly recommend it!

残念ながらサンセットは見れませんでしたが、天の川や流れ星がたくさん見れました♪海外で色んなツアーに参加したことがありますが、当ガイドさんの丁寧なサービスにビックリしました!!
毛布、コート、手袋を貸して頂けますが、タイツかロングソックスをで足元をもうちょっと暖かくして行けば良かったと思いました。ゴツゴツした岩場も少しありましたが、足を捻ったりしない自信があれば全然ヒールでも大丈夫だと思います。お勧めです♪

There are breathtaking views that you can't usually see at the top of the mountain. It's a shame that we couldn't see the sunset that day because of the clouds. I didn't expect it to be that cold at the summit! Please come fully equipped next time. I'm looking forward to our reunion.

普段見れない絶景が山の上にありますよね。この日サンセットは雲が多くて見れなかったのが残念です。
山頂はあれほど寒いとおもいませんですよね~。次回は完全装備でいらしゃってくださいね。

Myths of Maui Royal Lahaina Luau - Open Bar, Polynesian Dance & Fire Knife Show

First timers

Reviewed by: Tami

Overall this was a good experience for our first luau. The setting was very nice and the fire dancer a huge hit. I thought the dancers and entertainers were great but I would have enjoyed something a little more interactive. Example, instead of just selling the crafts, allowing children to interact. The food was good but the drinks were watered down. I didn't even finish one and ended up buying a $15 drink from the bar. We would likely attend again but also might look for something a little more interactive for the kids.

モロキニ島シュノーケリングクルーズ <朝・昼食付/現地集合>

The weather was great and it felt amazing! 天気に恵まれサイコーに気持ち良かった!

Reviewed by: ばうかある

Every December, I go to a remote island to enjoy snorkeling trips, but the weather is often bad during this time. However, this time the weather was fantastic, and we were able to relax comfortably on the deck of the boat.

There were some rough waves, so one person got seasick and had to sit down, but since they are generally weak on boats, there's not much you can do about that. The snorkeling at Molokini Island has excellent water clarity, but... although I wasn't expecting much, I was still disappointed by the lack of coral and fish. Having experienced Okinawa, the Maldives, and Palau, I can't help but compare.

At the turtle spot, there were several turtles, and I even encountered one that was floating while mating. However, the visibility there wasn't great, and there were no fish at all. Our group was the only Japanese people there.

Our guide, Takako, was friendly and cheerful, which made our experience enjoyable and comfortable. My father, who couldn't go into the water, was also satisfied because the weather was nice.

毎年12月には離島に行きシュノーケルトリップを楽しみますがこの時期は天候が悪いことも多いです。しかし今回はすっごく良いお天気で船のデッキで気持ち良くすごせました。
少し波が荒かったため1名だけ船酔いしダウンしましたがもともと船に弱いためこればっかりは仕方ないですね。
モロキニ島のシュノーケルは海の透明度は抜群ですが・・・期待していなかったもののやっぱり珊瑚や魚が少なく残念でした。沖縄やモルディブ・パラオを体験してるのでそれと比べてしまいます。カメがいるスポットには何匹もいて交尾しながら浮いてくるカメにも遭遇しました。ただここは透明度は良くありませんし全く魚はいません。
日本人は私達グループのみでした。
ガイドのタカコさんは気さくで天真爛漫。おかげでこちらも楽しく快適に過ごせました。
海に入れない父も天気が良かったので満足していました。

Haleakalā Sunset & Stargazing Tour ハレアカラサンセット&星空観測ツアー

Reviewed by: YAHARA

The view from Haleakalā was truly amazing. The sunset changes its expression from day to day, and the starry sky was unlike anything I've ever seen; it's beyond words.

Also, our guide, Yamapee, had such a pleasant personality. His attentive service, guidance at the location until our arrival, and the insider tips about Maui made for an experience that exceeded my expectations.

The warm clothing provided was great, and there was nothing to complain about—both the outdoor bento and the grilled ice were wonderful!

ハレアカラの絶景は、本当に最高でした。その日その日によって表情を変えるサンセット、今まで見たことがない程の星空、言葉になりません。

そしてガイドのYamapeeさんの人柄がとても心地よいです。

防寒具も充実で悪いとこナシです~、幕の外弁当もグリグリアイスも良かった~

It's better to climb the mountain slowly to avoid altitude sickness. Moreover, if you have a little donut or take a detour to eat ice cream along the way, you'll feel really energized and can reach the summit. The Grigri Ice in Maui, which is the only one in the world, is exquisite. It's the greatest happiness to hear our customers' requests and for them to enjoy the tour and leave feeling moved.

山はゆっくり登った方が高山病にならないのです。
しかもお腹に少しドーナッツか、寄り道してアイスクリームなどを
食べて行くと本当に元気で山頂に行けます。
マウイに一軒しかない、いや世界に一軒のグリグリアイスは絶品です。笑
お客様のご要望が聞けて、ツァーを楽しんで感動して
お帰りになって頂くのが一番の幸せです。

I went to Maui for the first time and participated in the Haleakalā sunset and stargazing tour. There were four of us: a group of three consisting of a mother and her two daughters, and me. It was nice to have fewer people, making it more relaxed. The moon was out, so the visibility of the stars wasn't great, but the sunset was beautiful. I was able to have a valuable experience. Next time, I would like to go during the new moon.

My first snorkeling experience at Molokini Island!! I was worried because there were mostly foreigners around, but thanks to the friendly support from a Japanese female staff member (I'm sorry, I forgot her name), I enjoyed it more than I expected. The ocean in October was a bit chilly at first, but once I got in, it was warm. Molokini Island had cave-like formations and beautifully colored fish, making it so much fun that I lost track of time. It was incredibly enjoyable. Even though it was October, the Hawaiian sun was strong, and it got hotter as the afternoon went on, so I ended up getting sunburned!! For those participating, please apply sunscreen generously. Even with sunscreen, you can still get burned (laughs).

はじめてのモロキニ島シュノーケリング!!
まわりは外人さんだらけで心配でしたが、日本人の女性スタッフのかた(ごめんなさい。名前忘れちゃいました)のきさくなフォローもあり思ってたよりも楽しめました。10月の海ははじめはひやっとしましたが、海の中に入ってしまえばあたたかったです。モロキニ島は洞窟みたいなのがあったり、きれいな色の魚がいたりと時間を忘れるほどの楽しさでした。時間を忘れるくらい楽しかったです。10月とはいえハワイの日差しは強く午後になるにかけて暑くなり日焼けもしました!!参加する方は日焼け止めこれでもかってくらいぬってくださいね。塗っても焼けます(笑)
