Maui
Our guide Garret was excellent. A lovely local man And he eluded Aloha.
Great tour.
Mahalo and Aloha Garret.
My first time on Lanai Island, and it's truly a relaxing and quiet place, unlike other islands. The people are kind, and the Garden of the Gods was nice, but the planned visits to Hulopoe Bay and the ancient petroglyphs didn’t happen. The weather was a bit cloudy that day, which was a bit disappointing.
初めてのラナイ島、他島と違ってホントのんびり静かな良いところです。人も優しいし、神々の庭園も良かったのですが、プランにあるフルポエ湾や古代ペトログリフ見学はなかったです。当日は天気も曇りがちで少しがっかりというところでしょうか。

Despite it being my first snorkeling experience, I was able to see several sea turtles, which made me very satisfied! I felt inspired to try snorkeling in various oceans in the future. The guide, Kana, was very kind and attentive, making it easy for me to enjoy the experience even as a beginner. The casual conversations about Maui in Japanese were also very comforting! However, the motion sickness medication I bought at a supermarket in Maui didn't work very well, so if you're prone to seasickness, it might be better to bring stronger medication like Aneron from Japan.
初シュノーケリングにも関わらず念願のウミガメを何匹も見ることができ大満足です！
今後も色んな海でシュノーケリングしてみたいな〜と思えました。
ガイドのkanaさんが懇切丁寧に対応してくださるので、初めてでも安心して楽しめました。
マウイの雑談も日本語でばりばりにしてくださり、心安らぎます！
ただ、マウイのスーパーで買った船酔い(motion sickness)の薬があまり効かなかったので、船酔いに弱い方は日本でアネロン等強めのお薬を持っていった方がよいかもしれません。

The wind was strong, so we couldn't go to Molokini Island, but the spot we were taken to instead was absolutely beautiful!
Moreover, we encountered a turtle!
I was very well taken care of by the Japanese instructor, Takako. Thank you very much!
I want to go again!
風が強くてモロキニ島には行けませんでしたが、代わりにつれていってもらったスポットがめちゃめちゃ綺麗でした☆
しかも、カメに遭遇♪
日本人インストラクターのたか子さんには大変お世話になりました。ありがとうございましたm(__)m
また行きたいです!

We celebrated my parents 40th anniversary on the boat and couldn’t have asked for a better evening. The boat, crew, food, drinks and sunset were incredible! This is a must do!
So awesome!! Thanks for sharing guys and thanks for the super kind review! Congrats on 40 years Mom and Dad!
The driver guide was friendly and kind. The breakfast we had at the golf course clubhouse was delicious. Indeed, warm clothing is essential.
ガイドの運転手さんは、気さくで親切でした。ゴルフ場のクラブハウスで食べた、朝ご飯は、美味しかったです。やはり、防寒具は必携です。

It was very beautiful.
While it's essential to prepare for the cold, it was bearable, perhaps because it was summer. If you're planning to take photos, having gloves might be a good idea.
とても美しかったです。
寒さ対策はきっちり必要ですが、夏だった所為か耐えられる寒さでした。撮影されるならてぶくろがあるといいかも。

It was my first time in Hawaii and my first time snorkeling, and I had a lot of fun. The Japanese staff were very kind and attentive, which eased my initial anxiety, and I was able to participate in the tour with peace of mind. Unfortunately, we couldn't go to the spot where we could see sea turtles due to bad weather, but I was still very satisfied with just one location.
初めてのハワイ、初めてのシュノーケリングでしたがとても楽しく満喫できました。日本人スタッフの方がとても優しく、気配りのできる方で、最初は不安でしたが、すぐに安心してツアーに参加できました。私のときはウミガメの見えるポイントは天候不良で行けませんでしたが、一ヶ所だけでも十分満足できました。

Too “tour bus” in style ( but it was Chevy). Tour went 2.5 hours with no food, water, or bathroom stop - family was not happy.
Tour and Island was ok, but it needs a mid point stop and event. Like swim in the ocean, or hike to some place, or zip line across a ravine, etc.
Needs more “ do it”, less sit.
We enjoyed our time. The only concern I had was when it came time to find the boat. Their were no signs on the shore or instructions where to go. The food was fine, but it ran out.
Cute local luau with good food. I suggest paying for the VIP experience, because VIP gets to the buffet line first, as the food goes quickly. Just 6-8 dancers total and a host, but adorable local luau!
There was good coordination between the ferry boat ride timing and that of the tour. The tour guide, Garrett, is what made the tour great. He was very knowledgeable, personable, and very efficient in conducting the tour. He grew up on the island, knew its history personally--and this made all the difference in allowing for a great tour.
This tour is probably one of the best tours you can do if you're staying in Maui. I went with my boyfriend on a Friday and our tour guide Trevor was amazing and took great care of us. It was an all-day event starting at around 8am with the bus coming to our hotel to pick us up, and ended around 6pm with us being dropped back off as well. Trevor, a local of Hawaii for many years, was very informative of the lifestyle, culture, and geography of a lot of the sightseeing we encountered on the road and made multiple stops throughout the trip to allow passengers to explore, shop, and take pictures. We pretty much made an entire loop around the right side of the island which was amazing because we definitely got to see the different terrains as well. The highlight of the trip for my boyfriend and I was making stops at one of the waterfall pools and Black Sand Beach at Waianapanapa State Park. Our tickets included a light, continental breakfast and a nice lunch. We couldn't have asked for a better day!
We took the 1-hour trip which was really not quite long enough to see all there is to see. The crew includes divers who go over the side and bring things up from the reef and exhibit them. Not for the claustrophobic as you do sit below the waterline, but ventilation is very good. Also note the boat has no restrooms so drinking a ton of water, or anything else for that matter, is not a great idea. The water is very clear and there is a good deal to see. Be sure to bring some cash to tip the crew if you can (we did not know it was an option). Next time we will take the 1.5 hour trip.
The accommodation for getting set up to fly in from Maui and meet my docent was easy and stress free. The staff met me at both airports and it was easy from there. My driver was Tommy, he was friendly, funny, and informative. The only real negatives about my experience was the closed Arizona memorial (not the company’s fault just bad timing) and a lack of time at the USS Missouri. My group and I were handed off to a tour guide with the USS Missouri organization who was slow and annoying and by the time she was finished there was only 20 minutes to explore the ship before we had to get back on the bus. The other stops had enough time in my opinion but I recommend not following the tour guide on the Missouri and explore on your own. Overall a good experience.
The Molokini Island tour was amazing. The water clarity was outstanding. And the detailed attention from our Japanese guide, Takako, was wonderful. Above all, her kind and cheerful demeanor made the experience very enjoyable. I would love to do it again. Thank you!
モロキニ島ツアーは最高でした。海の透明度は最高でした。そして日本人ガイドのたか子さんの細かな対応。何よりも親切な明るい対応でとても楽しく過ごせました。またリピートしたいです。ありがとうございました

The driver was an older gentleman who explained things slowly in English since we were not very good at it. It felt like we were in Arizona, surrounded by wilderness, rich in nature and soothing to the heart. Spending a day slowly in nature was wonderful, and I definitely want to go back. I promised Ken that we would meet again and returned to Maui.
初老のドライバーさんで、色々英語での説明で我々英語が不得意なのでゆっくりと説明していました島は荒野に囲まれて自然豊かで心癒されるアリゾナに居る感じです。でもゆっくりと自然の中の1日、又是非行きたいし、ケンさんと再会を約束してマウイ島に帰島

We had an amazing day kayaking and snorkeling with our fabulous tour guide Jake . He was so knowledgeable about the islands and the ocean and even gave us a Hawaiian language lesson ! He was super hands on and made us feel like he was our friend and not just our tour guide ! Fabulous !
Thanks to the attentive service and safety management of the Japanese staff, my elderly mother was able to enjoy herself with peace of mind. They were truly hardworking and sincere, wonderful Japanese staff. Thank you very much.
日本人スタッフのきめ細やかなサービスと安全管理のおかげで、高齢の母も安心して楽しむことができました。本当に働き者で誠実感あふれるステキな日本人スタッフでした。ありがとうございます。

This was our 5th time attending this luau and once again it was top notch. The staff was friendly and the food and entertainment were awesome. The event was very well organized and the venue was perfect.
I visited Lanai Island for the first time, which I had always admired from afar! The one-day tour was a private experience just for the two of us! Our kind driver, who spoke slowly and gently explained things to us despite our limited English, really impressed us! The island is surrounded by wilderness, giving it an undeveloped feel that reminded me of a Western movie!
何時も眺めて居たラナイ島に初めて渡りました！1日ツアーは2人だけの貸切！
優しいドライバーさんで余り英語が話せ無い我々にゆっくりと優しく説明してくれ感激しました！島は荒野に囲まれて未開発感が溢れて西部劇を思い起こしていました！

Had a fabulous time and food and show was awesome.
Amazing half day with Bruce.
Seems like we saw the entire island. Bruce knows everything about the island and was great.
Highly recommend.
Great time on the Sea Maui. The music was wonderful! Really great service too. Got great shots of the sunset.
I would totally recommend this catamaran ride to everyone.
Our Tour Guide Henry was very well versed on all aspects of the Island and to Haleakala in general. He was patient with our entire group and encouraged questions.
Dinner was meh-My husband and I have eaten several times at Cafe O'Lei in Kihei,but this was not up to those standards.
Exceeded my expectations on all levels. The staff were knowledgeable about history, myths, sea life and safety. Not only did I learn so much on the trip, but I felt safe, well-fed, well-cared for, and had a lot of fun! The service and food were outstanding. I can't recommend this trip highly enough.
Since Sunset was fully booked, I chose this option, and it was a great decision!
You can see a perfect starry sky because they start very early in the morning!
The sunrise was also very beautiful.
It was really cold, so I wore a down jacket, sweater, and denim, and even with Heattech underneath my denim, I was still cold.
Also, the guide and all the other guests were foreigners, so everything was in English.
The explanations were detailed and easy to understand, and the other tour participants were nice people too!
サンセットが満席だったため、こちらにしましたが、大正解でした！
朝とても早くから出版するので、満点の星空が見れます！
朝日もとても美しかったです。
とてもさむいので、ダウンジャケット、セーター、デニム、デニムの下にヒートテックでも寒かったです。
またガイドさんや他のお客さんも全員外国人なので英語です。
説明会も細かくしてくれてわかりやすかったですし、ほかのツアー客もいい人でした！

Great crew! Very helpful and polite. We had a great time.
On spur of the moment my wife and I decided to take the ferry to Lanai then rent a Jeep to go exploring. The cost was reasonable and it was a spectacular day. We caught the 6:45 morning ferry. The Jeep was waiting for us in the parking lot. We headed out not really sure what to expect. We ran into Mikee as we were driving up the hill towards Lahaina City. Mikee is the guy we rented the Jeep from He gave us some tips on what to expect and where we should go. His suggestions were bang on. We had a leisurely day exploring the island; so many amazing sights that will take your breath away! We planned to take the 6:45 return ferry that day. It gave us some leisure time after we were done exploring. The return on the ferry was a bit rough but the boat handles it easily.
Great time had by all! The crew met all our needs! The snorkeling and the entire experience was wonderful! Perfect day on the water in Maui!
