I participated with my wife and our two elementary school children. We visited two snorkeling spots with abundant coral and high visibility, where we saw many tropical fish and even sea turtles. The kids were very excited, and I think it became a memorable part of our trip.
The Japanese staff kindly taught us the procedures and how to use the equipment, and they also recommended spots in the water and informed us when we spotted sea turtles, allowing us to have a safe and fulfilling time.
The hamburgers we ate on the boat, along with the beer, cookies, and coffee during our return trip after snorkeling, were all fantastic and highly recommended under the refreshing blue sky of Maui!
It was unfortunate that we couldn't go to Molokini Island due to strong winds, but as mentioned, we saw plenty of fish and sea turtles, which adds to the excitement for next time.
家内と小学生の子供二人を連れて参加しました。
珊瑚が多く透明度の高いシュノーケリングポイントを2つ回ってくれて、そのどちらでも沢山の熱帯魚、そしてウミガメにも会えました。
子どもたちも大興奮で旅の想い出に出来たのではないかと振り返っています。
日本人スタッフさんが親切に手順や道具の使い方を教えてくれて、更に海の中でもオススメのスポットや海ガメ発見時に場所を教えてくれたりで、安心かつ充実した時間を過ごすことが出来ました。
船の上で食べるハンバーガーや、シュノーケリング後の帰港中のビールにクッキー&コーヒー。爽やかなマウイの青空の下でその全てが最高でオススメです!
風が強くてモロキニ島へは船が出せなかったのは残念なのですが、上述の通り沢山お魚にもウミガメにも会えましたし、次回へのお楽しみ。ということで。

The local tour with an English guide (including myself, there were three Japanese passengers and about ten foreign passengers) was well explained, and as a one-day tour, it was good. Unfortunately, the view from the visitor center near the summit was completely obscured by fog, which was disappointing, but later at the second viewpoint, I was relieved to see the entire crater beautifully. I was moved by the majestic views, including the scenery along the way. I’m not sure if we passed through the town of Paia as scheduled (I don’t think it was a particular issue), but the towns of Makawao and Iao Valley were also nice. Initially, it was stated that drop-offs were not allowed except at the pickup hotel, but after the Iao Valley tour, we split into a shuttle bus heading to Kahului and a bus going to Lahaina, so I was able to be dropped off at my desired destination of Lahaina, which was very helpful. Thank you very much.
英語ガイドの現地ツアー(乗客のうち私を含めて3人が日本人で、残り10数名は外国人)で、私の語学力ではドライバー兼ガイドの説明がその2割程度も聞けたかどうかわかりませんが、よく説明されており、1日ツアーとして良かったです。残念ながら、頂上近くのビジター・センターからの眺めは霧で全く見えず、これで終わりかとガッカリしましたが、その後、少し下がった第2展望台ではクレーター全体がきれいに見れてホッとしました。途中の景色も含めて、雄大な眺めに感動しました。予定にあったパイアの街 を通ったかどうかは不明でした(特に問題とは思っていません)が、マカワオの街、イアオ渓谷も良かったです。
当初、迎えのホテル以外への送りは不可とされていましたが、イアオ渓谷観光後にカフルイ方面へのシャトルバスとラハイナ方面への本バス移動に分かれたため、目的のラハイナまで乗せていただき、これも助かりました。
ありがとうございました。

I was recommended this show by the taxi driver I took from the airport and made a reservation. The tables are shared, and everyone chats in a friendly atmosphere.
Not only does it feature relaxed Hawaiian hula dancing, but it also showcases various Polynesian dances from Tahiti, Samoa, and more. There are several interactive performances as well (like children dancing on stage together), making it a show that families, couples, and people of all ages can enjoy together.
One thing to note is that there are many moments where English proficiency is helpful. This includes communication at shared tables and understanding explanations, such as going to the buffet to get food for your table; if you don't catch it well, you might find yourself confused.

I participated in this tour last year, and it was so wonderful that I invited my sister to join me again. Even though it's already mid-April, we were met with unexpected cloudy weather... Unfortunately, on the day of the tour, the heavy clouds lingered. I was worried about how it would turn out, but the underwater scenery was incredibly beautiful, enough to blow away the gray skies! I was able to swim leisurely with the sea turtles, creating great memories.
I want to thank Kana from the crew for all her help. It was really fun to hear various stories during our travels. Thank you very much!
The "fresh broccoli" that was served as a salad will definitely be something I try at home too (laughs).
Oh, be careful with the environmentally friendly sunscreen provided; it can be a bit too much. It turns you very white. Those with shaved heads ended up looking like a character from "Skikeiyo." As for me... I ended up looking like a foolish lord!

I continued to persuade my wife, who cannot swim, to join a snorkeling whale shark tour in Cebu last year, saying, "You can float!" This year, we challenged ourselves with snuba. My wife kept saying, "I'm so nervous! My heart is racing!" even before we left the hotel in the morning.
After about an hour of being rocked by the waves while having breakfast on the catamaran, we arrived at Lanai Island. As for my wife, she kept putting her face in the water and saying, "Buhh!" and then "Pahhh!" After 10 minutes of floating, she couldn't dive. However, thanks to Todd, our snuba instructor, who encouraged her with "You can! Believe me!" she finally went underwater.
She was deeply moved by being able to breathe underwater and, when it was over, she exclaimed, "Ahh, that felt so good! Why haven't I done this before?!" just like she said after last year's whale shark tour.
After snorkeling, those who wanted to could join a short tour of the island. Then we enjoyed a barbecue before heading back to the boat. The return trip had higher waves due to the wind. The catamaran stopped its engine and began sailing. I thought about getting tipsy on beer before getting seasick, so I enjoyed a Hawaiian beer. By the way, alcohol is all-you-can-drink.
The crew's hospitality in trying to entertain the participants was wonderful. We had a great time from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. I think the cost performance is excellent.
Thank you, Captain Turtle, Crazy Cat Mario, Diving Todd, Balance Ninja Boy Brandon!! We would like to join the tour next year too, with you as the crew.

泳ぎのできない妻を説得し続けて(昨年はセブ島で「浮いてられるから」とシュノーケリング・ジンベイザメ・ツァーに参加)、今年はスヌーバに挑戦。
妻は朝ホテルを出る前から「緊張する! ドキドキする!!」と言い続けていました。
カタマランで朝食を頂きながら波に揺られること1時間少々。ラナイ島到着。
扨て、妻はと言えば、顔をつけては「ブフゥー」。顔をつけては「パフゥー」。浮くこと10分、潜れません。が、スヌーバ担当のTODDの「You can! Believe me!」洗脳(?)で漸く海中に。

The morning pickup was delayed beyond the scheduled time, and since the van was over capacity, we were told to wait for a taxi, which made me very anxious. The taxi was arranged by the tour company, but it arrived more than 30 minutes after the meeting time. However, we made it in time for the ship's departure.
We were fortunate with the weather, so during snorkeling at Molokini Island, we could see all the way to the bottom. The second planned spot, Keawalai, was changed due to poor weather, but we were still able to see two turtles there.
After snorkeling, they provided us with beer and other alcoholic beverages. We enjoyed those while returning to the port.
Even with many clouds, you can still get sunburned while swimming, so don't forget sunscreen for your back! The water temperature isn't very high, so I think it's better to have a wetsuit or something similar.
On the way back, you'll get on the van immediately after getting off the boat, so if you want to change, it's better to do so in the boat's restroom.
朝のピックアップが予定より遅い到着だったうえにバンが定員オーバーだからタクシー待つように言われ、とても不安でした。タクシーはツアー会社が手配してくれましたがタクシーがきたのは集合時間から30分以上経ってからでした。船の出発には間に合いました。
お天気には恵まれたのでモロキニ島でのシュノーケリングでは底の方まで見ることができました。
2箇所目に予定されていたケアワライは天候がよくないということで別のポイントになりましたが、そちらでも2匹のタートルをみることができました。
シュノーケリングが終わるとビールなどのアルコールを提供してくれます。それをいただきながら港に戻りました。
雲が多くても泳いでいる間に日に焼けするので背中への日焼け止めも忘れずに!
水温はそれほど高くないのでウエットなどがあった方がいいと思います。
帰りは船から降りたらすぐにバンに乗るので着替えたい方は船のトイレで済ませた方がよいです。

We participated as a couple in our 70s. Thanks to the energetic Japanese staff who provided attentive support to the Japanese participants, we had a wonderful snorkeling cruise. Thank you very much.
Upon boarding, we were served breakfast. Shortly after, the Japanese staff explained how to spend time on the boat and confirmed the schedule. This was very helpful for Japanese participants who do not understand English. Additionally, I have hearing difficulties, but the staff explained things in a loud and very clear voice, which made me feel at ease. The staff advised us that Japanese people should act proactively without feeling shy or reserved. Indeed, when we followed that advice, everything went smoothly. I truly appreciated their constant care throughout the trip.
The snorkeling set, fins, life jackets, inflatable rings, and noodles (foam sticks) were provided for free. They rented wetsuits for $10, but the water was surprisingly warm, and wearing a rash guard was sufficient, so I didn't need the wetsuit. Sunscreen was available for free, but it was quite thick and left a white residue.
We were told to wear fins, but since it was my first time using them, I initially didn't know how to move properly. However, I gradually got used to them and figured out the technique; extending my legs while imagining climbing stairs helped me move faster. However, there was no instruction on this, so it might be good to prepare in advance.
The water was very clear, and I was surprised to see even the spines of sea urchins. However, we didn't see colorful fish or sea turtles. There were also foreigners doing snuba diving at the bottom of the sea.
We snorkeled twice near Molokini and Maui, and lunch was provided in between. At the end, a cold beer (all-you-can-drink) was delicious after swimming and feeling tired.
Even for older participants, it was a safe and incredibly enjoyable experience! I highly recommend this tour!
As a reference, I took motion sickness medication, so I didn't get seasick, but those who did seemed to struggle quite a bit. There was no place to store valuables, which was a bit of a hassle, so it might be best to bring only the essentials (like tips).
日本人70代年配夫婦で参加しました。
日本人参加者に対して、元気の良い日本人スタッフさんが丁寧にサポートしてくれたおかげで、楽しいシュノーケリングクルーズになりました。ありがとうございました。
乗船すると、朝食付きが振舞われました。その後すぐに、日本人スタッフさんから船内での過ごし方の説明、スケジュールの確認がありました。英語が分からない日本人にはありがたかったです。また、私は耳が遠いのですが、大きく通るとても聞き取りやすい声で説明してくれたので、安心できました。日本人は積極的に恥ずかしがらず、遠慮せずに行動するようにとアドバイスしてくれました。確かにその通りに行動すると、何事もスムーズに進みました。終始、気にかけてくれたのは本当にありがたかったです。
シュノーケルセット、足ひれ、ライフジャケット、胴回りの浮き輪、ヌードル(発泡スチロールの棒)は無料です。ウエットスーツは10ドルで貸してくれましたが、海の中は以外と暖かくラッシュガードを着れば、ウエットスーツは必要ありませんでした。日焼け止めは無料で置いてありましたが、かなり白くなるタイプです。
足ひれは必ず装着するように言われましたが、初めて使うので、最初はどのように動かしていいか分からなかったですが、だんだん慣れてきてコツが分かり、腿上げをしながら階段を登るイメージで脚を伸ばすと、早く進むようになりました。ただ、このような指導はありませんので、事前に予習するといいかもしれません。
水の中は透明度が高く、ウニの針まで見れたのは驚きでした。ただ、カラフルな魚や海亀は見れませんでした。海の底に潜る、スヌーバをやってる外国人の方もいました。
シュノーケリングはモロキニ島と、マウイ島近くで2回行い、途中昼食が提供され、最後泳ぎ疲れた身体に、ビール(飲み放題)が美味しかったです。
年配でも安心して参加でき、最高に楽しい時間を過ごせました‼︎お勧めのツアーです‼︎
参考までに…酔い止めを飲んだおかげで、船酔いはしませんでしたが、酔ってる人はかなり辛そうでした。貴重品を預ける場所がなく、困りましたので、なるべく最小限(チップぐらい)にするといいかもしれません。

I went directly to the meeting point by rental car. There is free parking next to the aquarium. Be careful as the parking near the dock is paid.
After checking in, you will line up for boarding. The earlier you line up, the better seats you can get. The popular choice is the outdoor seating on the second floor, but for those who are prone to seasickness or worried about sunburn from being outside for too long, I recommend the central seating on the first floor. You can easily grab food and drinks.
For breakfast, they served fruit, croissants, muffins, coffee, and passion fruit juice. It was delicious and not overly sweet.
After breakfast, there will be an explanation from the Japanese staff. They provide quite detailed information, so it's definitely worth listening to.
There are two snorkeling spots: one is Molokini Island, and the other is a rocky area near Maui Island. Both have high visibility and many fish. Each snorkeling session lasts for one hour, but honestly, it goes by in a flash. I recommend lining up at the front of the line as early as possible to go snorkeling sooner.
After the first spot, it's time for lunch. You can choose from cheeseburgers, hot dogs, and chicken burgers grilled on the boat, but I recommend the cheeseburger.
The second snorkeling session was near Maui Island, and again, the visibility was high with plenty of fish.
Finally, there was an all-you-can-drink option until just before the Maui craft beer arrived! Crispy cookies were also distributed, and they were delicious.
Overall, it was a very satisfying tour!
レンタカーで直接集合場所に行きました。無料駐車場は水族館脇にあります。船着場近くの駐車場は有料なので注意です。
受付した人から乗船のための列に並びます。なるべく早く並んだ方が、良い席が取れます。人気は二階外席ですが、酔いやすい人や、長く外にいると日焼けの心配がある人は、一階の中央席がお勧めです。食べ物や飲み物もすぐに取りに行けます。
朝食はフルーツ、クロワッサン、マフィン、コーヒー、パッションフルーツジュースが出ます。甘さ控え目で美味しかったです。
朝食の後、すぐに日本人スタッフさんから説明があります。かなり詳しく説明をしてくれるので、必ず聞いた方がいいです。
潜るポイントは二箇所、一つはモロキニ島、もう一つはマウイ島付近の岩場でした。どちらも透明度が高く、魚も沢山いました。一箇所につき、シュノーケリングする時間は1時間ですが、あっという間に終わってしまったというのが正直なところです。なるべく、早く列のはじめに並び早めに潜りに行くことをお勧めします。
一箇所目が終わると、昼食になります。船上で焼いてくれるチーズバーガー、ホットドック、チキンバーガーから選べますが、チーズバーガーがお勧めです。
二箇所はもうマウイ島のそばまで戻ってきてからのシュノーケリングでしたが、透明度高く、魚が沢山いました。
最後はマウイの地ビールが到着する少し前まで、飲み放題‼︎サクサクのクッキーも配られました‼︎これがまた美味しかったです。
全てにおいて大満足のツアーでした‼︎

< From Pickup to Arrival >
I was unsure about what to wear for departure, but since the only place to change was the restroom on the boat, I decided to wear my swimsuit underneath from the start and just put on a cover-up over it.
Upon arriving at the location by bus, there is a check-in process. There are Japanese check-in forms available, so filling them out is no problem. This is when you can finally talk to the Japanese staff.
Before and after departure, explanations are primarily given in English, but there will be individual explanations from the Japanese staff later, so if you don't understand English, you can just listen without worrying.
You should not leave your luggage on the bus; bring everything onto the boat. Just a voucher, towel, and a change of clothes for after snorkeling are sufficient.
< Motion Sickness Prevention >
The boat has a structure divided into the first and second floors. The second floor has a nice breeze, but it also sways more. The first floor sways less, so if you're worried about motion sickness, I definitely recommend staying on the first floor. I usually get very seasick, so I thought the second floor would feel better, but I was mistaken and felt a bit nauseous. Later, the guide told me that the first floor sways less, and as soon as I went down there, I felt much better and recovered. Being near the door on the first floor also provides a nice breeze.
< Snorkeling >
Snorkeling gear, floatation devices, and fins are provided for free. However, the wetsuit was not mentioned at the time of booking, and you need to pay $10 per person on-site. Most people did not wear one, and I swam without it without any issues.
The sea is very clear, and you can see the coral on the seabed, which is beautiful. There are many fish, but they are not very colorful, with only about four types. This may vary depending on the location and season.
Snorkeling takes place at two spots, and at the second spot, you can also see sea turtles. In April 2018, there was less sunshine than usual, and it was quite cloudy, so the water temperature was pretty cold.
< Meals >
Once on the boat, we have a simple buffet with bread and fruit, which everyone takes for their meal on board. After snorkeling, we eat hamburgers, which are cooked on-site and quite tasty.
< Returning Home >
Take your time on the bus. I recommend changing on the boat to avoid getting wet while riding.
You won't have any problems even if you don't understand English. Even if you're not confident in swimming, there are four types of floatation devices available, so you should be fine. The sea is beautiful, and I think it will make for great memories, so I highly recommend it!
< ピックアップから現地到着まで >
まずどういう服装で出発すればよいか迷いましたが
着替える場所は船内のトイレしかないため、行きは初めから水着を中に着て、上から上着を羽織っていきました。
バスで現地へ到着すると、受付が行われます。
日本語の受付用紙があるため、記入すれば問題ないです。
ここでようやく日本語スタッフと話ができます。
出発前、出発後も基本的に英語で説明がありますが
あとで日本語スタッフから個別に説明があるため
英語がわからない方は聞き流していて問題ないです。
荷物はバスには置かず、全て船内へ持ち込みます。
バウチャー、タオル、シュノーケル後の着替えがあればよいです。
<船酔い対策 >
船は1Fと2Fにわかれた構成です。
2Fの方が風が気持ちいいですが、揺れも大きいです。
1Fの方が揺れが少ないため、船酔いが心配な方は確実に1Fがいいとおもいます。私は普段からものすごく船酔いをするほうなため2Fのほうが気持ちいいと思い行きましたが、当てがはずれて少し気持ち悪くなりました。あとからガイドの方に教えてもらいましたが1Fの方が揺れが小さいらしく1Fに行くとすぐに楽になり復活しました。1Fもドア付近にいると風も吹いて気持ちがよいです。
<シュノーケリング>
シュノーケリング、浮き具、足ひれは無料で手渡されます。
ただウェットスーツは申し込み時は記載がなかったのですが、有料でその場で1人10ドルの支払いが必要です。ただ半分以上の人は着用しておらず、私もなしで泳ぎましたが問題ないです。
肝心の海はとても透明度が高く、海底には珊瑚が見えてとてもきれいです。ただ魚はたくさんいるのですが、色とりどりではなく4種類程度でした。これはポイント、時期によって変わるのかもしれません。
シュノーケリングは2箇所で行われ、2箇所目ではウミガメをみることもできます。2018年4月は例年より日差しは出ておらず、曇りがちだったため水温はかなり冷たかったです。
<食事>
まず船に乗ると、簡単なビュッフェ形式でパンとフルーツを1人ずつとって船内で食事をとります。
シュノーケリング後は、ハンバーガーを食べます、ハンバーグはその場で焼いているため割とおいしかったです。
<帰宅>
バスに乗ってゆっくり。
濡れたまま乗らないように、船内で着替えておくことをお勧めいたします。
英語がわからなくてもまったく問題ないです。
泳ぎに自信がなくても、浮き具が4種類もあるため、まず問題ないです。
海もきれいなため、いい思い出になるとおもいますのでお勧めいたします!

This was my first time watching a luau show, so I can't compare it to others, but I really enjoyed the cute dances and the fire dance. After checking in and being guided, we had a photo opportunity (available for purchase at the end for those interested). Once we were seated at our assigned table, drinks were brought to us, and we could enjoy the sunset by the beach while the kids had fun with face painting services. We also got to see the whole pig being roasted. After being seated, there was time to greet the people at the neighboring table, but since our family isn't very good at English, we could only manage to ask where they were from.
The dancers were relatively young, a mix of boys and girls, which gave a cute impression. At one point, kids and newlywed couples were called up to dance together, creating a homey atmosphere.
The meal was served buffet-style, and I tried a bit of everything, all of which was delicious. There wasn't really time for seconds, but the dessert corner had snacks like potatoes that paired well with drinks, so I was able to go back for those multiple times.
ルアウショーを見るのが初めてなので、他と比較することはできませんが、可愛らしいダンスとファイヤーダンスを楽しむことができました。受付をすませて、誘導されると記念撮影が待っています(最後に希望者は購入可)。案内されたテーブルに着いた後、ドリンクを持ってきてもらい、海辺のサンセットを眺めたり、子供達は顔にペインティングをしてもらうサービスを楽しむことができます。また豚の丸焼きができあがったところも見せてもらいます。席に着くと、隣のテーブルの人達と挨拶をしたりする時間がありますが、私たち家族はあまり英語が得意ではないので、出身を聞くくらいの会話しかできませんでした。
ダンサーは割と若い、男の子と女の子といった感じでした。なので可愛らしい印象です。途中で子供達や新婚カップルなどが呼ばれて前に出て一緒に踊る時間もあり、アットホームな印象でした。
食事はバイキング形式で、一通り食べましたが、どれも美味しかったです。食事はおかわりをする時間がありませんでしたが、デザートのコーナーにはポテトなどのお酒のおつまみもあるので、それは何回も取りに行くことができました。

It's the best experience! The crew's service, the delicious food, and above all, the beauty of the ocean...!!
The flow of the tour was as follows:
- Early morning pickup in front of the hotel
- Everyone gathered at the dock
(There were about 30 people in total. We were the only Japanese.)
- Breakfast buffet in the order of boarding
(There was plenty of bread, muffins, fruits, etc.)
- Snorkeling at Molokini Island
(The clarity was amazing... we saw various tropical fish, including angelfish.)
- Lunch
(We had burgers. The meat was grilled on the boat, and it smelled great. We could choose from about three types.)
- Snorkeling at a point called Turtle Town
(We were able to swim close to sea turtles. The beauty of the ocean here was also incredible... thanks to the sunlight, the seabed sparkled, and it was breathtakingly beautiful.)
- On the way back to the dock, we enjoyed beer (as much as you want; it's all-you-can-drink.)
- We were driven back to the pickup location and then dispersed.
☆ Advice
- Once on the boat, sit near the entrance indoors. The view from the second floor is beautiful, but it gets really hot.
- Organic sunscreen was provided on the boat, but it turns quite white when applied, so it might be better to bring your own to avoid looking like a clown.
- When there's sunlight, your back and calves can get burned! Make sure to apply and reapply sunscreen.
- Lunch can get quite crowded, so it's best to grab it early. Getting it early will also help with your condition for the next snorkeling session.
I wrote various pieces of advice, all of which I learned from KANA, the crew member who provided Japanese support. I really appreciated her help. I gave a tip to KANA personally when disembarking. She was bright, attentive, and a wonderful person.
We missed it, but it seems that whales could be seen even in April. There were also whale sharks. You can expect more fun than just snorkeling, so if you visit Maui, definitely participate!
最高の一言です。クルーの対応、食事のおいしさ、何より海のきれいさ…!!
ツアーの流れとしては次のようなかんじです。
・早朝ホテル前でピックアップ
・船着場でみんな集合
(全部で30人ほどだったでしょうか。日本人は私たちだけでした。)
・乗船した順に、朝食バイキング
(パン、マフィン、フルーツなど、十分な量でした。)
・モロキニ島でシュノーケリング
(透明度がすばらしかったです…いろんな熱帯魚を見れました。エンゼルフィッシュもいました。)
・昼食
(バーガーでした。お肉は船で焼いてくれて、いい匂いが漂ってました。3種類くらいから選べました。)
・タートルタウンというポイントでシュノーケリング
(ウミガメと至近距離で泳ぐことができました。ここでも海のきれいさがすばらしくて…日差しがあったおかげで海底もキラキラしていて、言葉にならないきれいさでした。)
・船着場までの帰り道はビールを飲みながら(何杯でも。飲み放題です。)
・ピックアップ場所まで車で送ってもらって解散
☆アドバイス
・船に乗船したら屋内で出入口から近い席に座りましょう。船の2階も眺めはきれいですがめっちゃ焼けます。
・オーガニックの日焼け止めが船に用意されていましたが、塗ったらけっこう白くなるので、顔はバカ殿みたいにならないように、自前のものを塗って行った方が良いかもしれません。
・日差しがあると、背中やふくらはぎ等、体の裏側が焼けます!しっかり塗る&塗り直し必須です。
・昼食はけっこう並ぶので、早めにゲットしちゃいましょう。早めに消化させちゃったほうが次のシュノーケリングへのコンディションとしても良いと思います。
色々アドバイス書きましたが、これ全部、日本語サポートしてくれたクルーのKANAさんから教えてもらったものです。本当にお世話になりました。下船する際にチップをKANAさん個人へお渡ししました。明るくてサポートもきめ細かくて、とってもすてきな方でした。
私たちは見逃しましたが、4月でもクジラが見えたみたいです。ジンベイザメもいたとのこと。単なるシュノーケリング以上の楽しさが期待できるので、マウイ島に行かれた際はぜひ参加してみてください。

I was concerned about the trip due to the rain in the morning, but I was relieved when the boat safely left the port. Unlike tours from certain companies, there were many international participants, which really enhanced the Hawaiian atmosphere. Due to the weather, we couldn't go to Molokini Island, but we snorkeled at Coral Garden and another location, where the underwater scenery was beautiful, and I lost track of time playing with the fish. The breakfast, lunch, and open bar were all satisfactory, and combined with the staff's attentiveness, I had a great time (I was a bit anxious about using the restroom due to my age, but that was not an issue). This was my third tour with Veltra, following the sandbar and catamaran cruise on Oahu, and I have never been disappointed. I would like to book another tour with Veltra to get my revenge on Molokini Island next time.
朝からの雨で決行自体が気になりましたが、無事船は港を離れひと安心。某社のツアーとは違い、海外の方の参加が多くハワイ気分は盛り上がります。天候の関係でモロキニ島には行けず、コーラルガーデンと他1か所でのシュノーケリングとなりましたが、海の中もとても綺麗で思わず時間を忘れ魚と戯れました。朝食・昼食・オープンバーともに十分な内容で、スタッフの方々の気遣いと併せて、とても楽しむことができました(年齢的にトイレの利用が不安でしたが、その点も問題なしでした)。オアフ島でのサンドバー、カタマランクルーズに続いてのベルトラでのツアーとなりますが、今まで外れはなく、次もベルトラでモロキニ島のリベンジをしたいと思います。

Was surprised that there are no tables to eat meal at. However, crew did a great job on the cruise and food was very good! Not much of a sunset because of clouds but we did see some whales so that was good! If it wasn’t for the quality of the food, I would have been disappointed. Everyone working on the shop was very accommodating and very friendly.

Our driver Scottie from Temptation Tours was the best I've ever seen. Kept us engaged the whole ride. Knew everything about the island, people, history. Knew all of the best places to stop, where all of the good and bad bathrooms were down to the minute. Told us when the drive by pic was coming up so that we knew to get our phones/camera ready. Stopped multiple times and took the best video and pics of not only us but something cool on the stop. The wraps at lunch were superb. The captain's chairs in the van were perfect. Flying back with Troy from Maui Air was just as incredible. He played cool music and the ride was smooth. Saw a bunch of the falls and even played a little "chase and ride along" a friend he spotted in an ultralight. Highly recommend this combo. We were back at the hotel by early afternoon! Veltra Tours made it so easy and kept us up to date via email during our trip.

I'm so happy we did this on our vacation. The experience was beautiful. The boat sailed right up to the sand to pick us up. The crew were all professional and friendly. They helped us on and off in the tricky surf conditions. Quite a few people got really wet so take that warning serious and dress appropriately.
The appetizers and drinks were delicious and top-notch. The sea was a little choppy so a few people in our party were sea sick, but I recommend half a dramamine.
We saw whales breaching in the distance as the sun set over the waves. Overall and amazing experience, would recommend 10/10.

This is an excellent company to tour with. The weather could have been better, but that is out of their control. They were very friendly and professional, and the boat was clean and fun. Would consider them again, snorkeling was okay, I've had better and worse.

It was a fantastic and impressive show that my husband, who visited Hawaii for the first time, thoroughly enjoyed! However, there were hardly any Japanese people on Maui, and my husband, who doesn't understand English, couldn't follow the explanations or guidance.
I also only understood a bit (just everyday conversation), so I was anxious about communication, but I was busy supporting my husband... haha.
Since it's an overseas trip, it's natural, but be aware that it won't be like Honolulu, where you see Japanese people everywhere.
On the other hand, everyone was really friendly, and the show was incredibly lively! I definitely want to go again!
ハワイが初めての旦那さんも大満足な迫力ある素晴らしいショーでした!
ただ、マウイ島には日本人がほとんど居らず、英語の分からない旦那は説明や案内が分かりませんでした。
私も聞き取りのみ(日常会話程度)だったので、コミュニケーションには不安でしたが旦那のフォローで手一杯に...笑
海外旅行なので当たり前ですが、ホノルルのような見渡す限り日本人のようにはいきませんので注意。
その代わり、みーんなノリが良くてショーも最高の盛り上がりでした!
また、是非いきたいです!

I drove to the summit of Haleakalā the day before, but it was covered in clouds and I couldn't see the crater. This time, I was able to see the crater perfectly on a helicopter tour, and it was breathtaking. I also saw countless waterfalls and was very satisfied.
ハレアカラは前日車で山頂に行きましたが雲に覆われてクレーターまで見えませんでした。今回ヘリコプターツアーでクレーターをバッチリ見られ圧巻でした。無数の滝も見られ大満足でした。

Snorkeling in the beautiful, sunny sea was a lot of fun. I was able to see three turtles, and both breakfast and lunch were delicious. Our Japanese guide, KANA, was very kind and made it a wonderful memory.
When we said goodbye on the boat, I regretted not being able to give a tip afterward. If I have the chance to meet her again next time, I would definitely like to express my gratitude.
晴れてきれいな海でのシュノーケリングはとても楽しかったです。カメも3匹も見れたし、朝食も昼食もおいしかったです。日本人ガイドのKANAさんもとても親切に案内してくださってとてもよい思い出になりました。
帰り船内でお別れしたのですが、そのあとチップをお渡しできなくて申し訳ないことをしたのが心残りでした。
次回もしお会い出来たら、ぜひお礼したいです。
