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>

It was okay even though I couldn't swim. 泳げなくても大丈夫でした

Reviewed by: TMAF

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。

Spectacular Haleakala Sunrise Tour with Park Admission & Breakfast at Cafe O'Lei

Beautiful!

Reviewed by: D Gard

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.

乗馬ツアー ワイへエ渓谷を巡り、ハレアカラ山頂も望む<午前・午後/英語ガイド>

Ride in the great outdoors! 大自然の中でライド!

Reviewed by: あさひ

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。

Hana by Air & Land - Helicopter Flight & Semi-Private Sightseeing Tour Combo

Great trip

Reviewed by: Ladd Bodem

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!

ラナイ島観光ツアー ラナイ島行きフェリー往復チケット付き<英語ガイド/半日/ マアラエア港発>

A Hawaii I've never seen before! 見たことのないハワイが!

Reviewed by: KATE

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!

伝統ルアウ&フラ ハワイアンショー オールド・ラハイナ・ルアウ 海の前の絶景ロケーションでハワイのカルチャー体験!<夕食/飲み放題/ウェルカムレイ付き>

A wonderful show and delicious food! 素晴らしいショーと美味しい食事!

Reviewed by: KATE

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。

It's been a while since I went snorkeling. 久しぶりのシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: フラガール

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.

Awesome cruise and snorkeling

The crew was amazing and fun. They were very knowledgeable of the island and surrounding area. We had an amazing time snorkeling and the crew made us feel very comfortable and at easy in the water. 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.

伝統ルアウ&フラ ハワイアンショー オールド・ラハイナ・ルアウ 海の前の絶景ロケーションでハワイのカルチャー体験!<夕食/飲み放題/ウェルカムレイ付き>

I was disappointed that there was no fire dance. ファイアーダンスが無かったのが残念でした。

Reviewed by: かりんま

The location and atmosphere were great, and the show started just as the sunset was ending. Before the show began, we could participate in various experiences and watch demonstrations; the children got to try playing the puili instrument. I observed the process of peeling coconuts and hollowing out the nata de coco part, and I tasted it. It felt similar to Paradise Cove Luau on Oahu, but the food here was definitely more delicious. The kalua pork and beef steak were tastier than I expected. The show featured a lot of traditional hula (kahiko), which I enjoyed. However, I was disappointed that the male dancers did not have the robust physiques typical of Native Hawaiians and that there was no fire dance, which I was looking forward to the most. The total duration of the show was about an hour, which felt a bit short compared to the three-hour time commitment. On the plus side, it allowed for a leisurely meal. Overall, it was a neutral experience.

場所も雰囲気も良く、サンセットが終わりかける頃から始まるショー。
ショーが始まる前には様々な体験をしたりデモンストレーションを見学することができ、子供たちはプイリという楽器の体験をしました。私はココナッツを剥いて?ナタデココの部分をくり抜く作業を見学し、その味見をしました。
オアフ島のパラダイスコーブルアウと似た感じでした。
が、食事は断然こちらの方が美味しかったです。
カルアポークやビーフステーキは思った以上のおいしさでした。
ショーの内容は、古典フラ(カヒコ)が多く、これは私の好みでした。
男性ダンサーの体つきが、ネイティブハワイアンの様な厚みのある肉体で無く、案外華奢だったのとファイアダンスが無かったのが残念でした。これが一番楽しみだったので。
ショーの時間は全て合わせて1時間程度で、所要時間3時間に対して短めかなという印象を受けました。その分ゆっくり食事はできますが。

ハレアカラ山頂 日の出鑑賞ツアー マウイ島最高峰の山頂で自然の偉大さを感じる <午前/朝食付き/英語ガイド>

It's very good. 大変良いです

Reviewed by: おもたろう

We participated as a family of four in August, with our children being 9 and 6 years old. Since we were staying at the Westin Maui, we met at the Group Entrance next to Whale's Village (where the shuttle bus for SPG hotels stops for Lahaina) at 2:20 AM. It's necessary to confirm by phone by the day before.

While waiting at that location, the first bus arrived earlier than scheduled. I was a bit anxious about whether we were supposed to take this bus, but we ended up transferring to a larger bus in Kahului. In the end, we were the only Japanese participants. The female driver and guide on this bus was amazing. She recommended chewing gum to prevent ear pressure. I was fine without it, but those who are concerned might want to prepare some. It seems you can buy gum at a convenience store during the transfer in Kahului. There weren't many cars on the way from Kahului to Haleakalā, but since it's a mountain road at night, I recommend joining a tour if you're not confident in your driving skills. Animals also seem to come out onto the road. According to the guide, if you haven't registered and paid online in advance, you won't be able to enter the park at sunrise. I actually saw several cars in front of us turning back.

I think we arrived at the sunrise viewing spot before 5 AM. First of all, both buses were quite cold due to the air conditioning, so it's a good idea to dress warmly. There are restrooms between the bus stop and the sunrise spot. I dressed the kids warmly there as it was quite cold. I recommend a lightweight down jacket, gloves, a scarf, a hat, and hand warmers. It's just a short walk from the restroom to the sunrise spot. It’s dark, so having a flashlight might be helpful, but it's not essential as you won't use it much aside from adjusting your camera. The sunrise was around 5:50 AM, so we ended up waiting outside for nearly an hour. On the tour, they guided us to a good spot for viewing the sunrise. Another male guide, who was acquainted with the female bus guide, helped out at the sunrise spot, taking care of the kids and taking photos for us. Whether to bring a tripod is a dilemma. If you really want to capture the starry sky before sunrise and don’t mind carrying extra gear, it could be worth it.

Despite the weather forecast, the sunrise spot was clear, and we were able to see the most beautiful sunrise. It's hard to explain in words or photos, but I believe it's worth seeing at least once in your life. The view of the crater below is also breathtaking. We returned to the bus at 6:15 AM. From there, we moved to the summit by bus, where there are about three photo spots. Even if you don't take photos, the views of the ocean and islands are quite impressive. It seems that if you do your research beforehand, you'll know what to expect, but for those unfamiliar, it felt a bit uncertain whether we were allowed to be there, so participating in the tour was definitely worthwhile. After getting back on the bus, we were offered coffee and Danish pastries (which are sold in supermarkets and come in various flavors). We then headed for breakfast. The bus stopped at a photo spot along the way, where we took beautiful pictures.

For breakfast, you can choose from three options: pancakes, fruit, or something like bacon, which we ate at a restaurant attached to a golf course. I think it’s best not to have high expectations for the taste. Even if you don't understand English, you can manage, but it’s definitely helpful to understand the guide's information. As of the time I’m writing this, there shouldn’t be a Japanese sunrise tour available (though there is a starry sky tour). This might also be related to the aforementioned entry restrictions.

According to the hotel concierge, there seems to be a limousine tour for about $250 per person, but unfortunately, we couldn't participate as it was fully booked. During the summer when we participated, many people come from the mainland U.S. to Maui, so it fills up quickly. Once

家族4名で8月に参加しました。うち、子供は9才6才です。Westin Mauiに滞在していたので、ホテルのGroup EntranceというWhale's Villageの横の入口(SPG系列のホテルとラハイナまでの巡回バスが停まるところ)で、午前2時20分待ち合わせでした。前日までに再確認の電話をする必要があります。
その場所で待っていると予定時間より早く最初のバスが到着。このバスで行くのか少し不安でしたが、カフルイでより大型のバスに乗り換えることになりました。結局日本人は私達だけでした。このバスのドライバー兼ガイドさんの女性がすごかったです。ガムとか噛むことを勧めていました。空気が耳に詰まることを防ぐためのようです。私は噛まなくても大丈夫でしたが、気になる方は準備されてもよいでしょう。ガムは、カフルイでの乗り換え時にコンビニみたいな所で買うことができるようです。カフルイからハレアカラまで、車は多くはなかったですが、夜の山道なので運転技術に自信がない方はツアー参加をおすすめします。動物も道路に出てくるみたいです。ガイドさんの話によると、事前にインターネットで登録して料金を支払っていないと今はすくなくとも日の出の時に入山できないようです。実際、前にいた何台かの車が引き返していく様子を見ました。
日の出を見るスポットには午前5時前には着いたと思います。まず、バスが二台とも結構空調が利いて寒いので厚着をしていてもいいと思います。日の出スポットに行くためのバスの停車場所と、日の出スポットの間にトイレがあります。子どもたちはその前で厚着をさせました。結構寒いです。薄手のダウン、手袋、マフラー、帽子、カイロをおすすめします。トイレから日の出スポットまでほんの少し歩きます。暗いので懐中電灯があってもいいですが、この道とカメラの調節以外は使わないので必須ではないです。日の出は午前5時50分位だったので1時間近く外で待つことになりました。ツアーでいくと、日の出を見る良い場所に案内してくれました。その女性バスガイドさんの知り合いである別の男性ガイドさんが、日の出スポットで色々と面倒を観てくれて子どもたちの面倒をみてくれたり、写真を撮ってくれました。三脚を持っていくかは悩ましいです。日の出前の星空をどうしても撮影したいとか、荷物が苦にならないのであればありだと思います。
当日は天気予報にも拘わらず、日の出スポットは晴れており、最高の日の出を見ることができました。これは言葉や写真で上手く説明できないてすが、人生において一度は見ておく価値があると思います。眼下のクレーターのような感じも圧巻てす。午前6時15分にバスに戻りました。ここから、バスで山頂へ移動しました。ここでも三カ所位写真スポットがあります。写真をとらなくても、海や島が見える景色はかなり見応えがあります。事前によく調べていればわかるみたいですが、慣れない人間には、そこに行っていいのか微妙な感じでしたので、この点もツアーに参加した甲斐がありました。バスに戻ってから、コーヒーとデニッシュ(スーパーとかで売っている・何種類か味がある)の提供がありました。その後朝食に向かいました。途中、写真スポットでバスが停車しましたのでそこでも美しい写真を撮りました。
朝食は、車中でパンケーキ、フルーツ、ベーコンのようなものの三種類から選択します。ゴルフ場併設のレストランで食べますが、味はそれ程期待しない方がよいと思います。
英語は解らなくてもなんとかなりますが、ガイドさんの話に何かと参考になることもあるのでできるにこしたことはないです。これを書いている時点ては日本語日の出ツアーは催行されていなかったはずです(星空ツアーはある)。これも前述の入山規制と関係あるのかもしれかせん。
このツアー以外にホテルのコンシェルジェによると、一人250$くらいのリムジンみたいなので行くツアーもあるようです。ちなみにこちらは予約一杯で参加できませんでした。
我々が参加した夏場は、アメリカ本土からマウイに来る人が多く早めにいっぱいになるようです。日程が決まったらキャンセルできるのでとにかく早めに予約する事をおすすめします。

Molokini and Turtle Town Snorkel Cruise with Food & Open Bar - Pride of Maui

Spectacular Experience!!!

Reviewed by: Dave

Fun, knowledgeable crew. Crystal clear waters. Brilliantly colorful fish as far as the eye can see. And I got to swim with two sea turtles! Good food. Definitely the highlight of our Maui vaca. We were a little concerned with the advertised "open bar". We really weren't looking for a booze cruise. But the bar doesn't open until AFTER both snorkeling stops. Yay!

Reply from activity provider

Aloha Dave,

Thanks for your review of the Pride of Maui. Molokini Crater truly is a snorkelers paradise, with remarkable water clarity and a diverse ecosystem. Due to the water quality, the reef at Molokini is healthy and vibrant. Some of the coral species are endemic to Molokini Crater and as such, not found anywhere else. The variety of fish at Molokini is great too, as you point out.

We are so lucky to have a location like Turtle Town, where the Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles congregate, to share with our guests. We're pleased you enjoyed swimming with the turtles. We are definitely not a booze cruise, although feel our guests enjoy eating a big juicy burger or chicken sandwich, hot off the grill along with an ice cold micro brewed beer after snorkeling. It makes for a wonderful end to a perfect day.

Thanks again for your kind words.

Lanai Island Guided 4x4 SUV Sightseeing Trekker Tour with Maui to Lanai Ferry

Good experience

Reviewed by: Bebe Mireles

The tour was a great experience. Definitely learned a lot about the island and saw places we would have never found on our own. The only complaint my group had was the political commentary from the tour guide. He started early on referencing those "damn democrats" and a negative reference to ACLU. Being a group of very liberal people, we found it offensive but did not say anything for fear that he would not provide as good of a tour. This would have been a great experience without this extra commentary.

A tour where you can feel the Earth★
The sunset and stars are so beautiful that it's overwhelming.
The journey to the tour is relaxed, with stops at the supermarket, Krispy Kreme, and picking up dinner♪
We also bought souvenirs at the supermarket we visited at that time.
It's cold at the summit, so I recommend dressing warmly, but they provide extra clothing and blankets for you.
It was wonderful to come together as a group to watch the sunset and stars!
This tour allows you to reflect on yourself and your life in the great outdoors.

地球を感じられるツアー★
夕日も星も綺麗すぎて圧倒されます。
ツアーまでの道のりはスーパー行ったり、クリスピーに行ったり、夕食を買ったりと、ゆったり楽しめます♪
私たちもその時に行ったスーパーでお土産を購入したりしました。
山頂は寒いので暖かい格好をオススメしますが、上に着るものや毛布は用意してくださっています。
みんなで一体となり夕日や星を見るのも、とても素敵でした!
大自然の中で、自分自身や人生について改めて考えることができるツアーです。

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>

It was amazing! 最高でした!

The snorkeling points were in two locations, both with very clear and beautiful waters! I was able to see lovely fish and sea turtles. However, since there aren't many corals, those who have diving experience in places like Palau or Ishigaki may feel that there are fewer fish.

On the boat, breakfast and lunch were provided, and the hamburgers for lunch were really delicious! It might be because we were eating on the boat. They also prepared drinks so we could hydrate whenever we wanted, which was great.

If you're prone to seasickness, it's better to take motion sickness medication. However, in our case, we ended up sleeping soundly on the boat due to the fatigue from our previous travels and the drowsiness from the medication, so we missed some of the scenery.

The boat is equipped with inflatable rings for playing in the water, which anyone can borrow, and there's also a slide on the boat that you can use. The slide drops from quite a height, so I recommend it for those who can swim! ★

シュノーケルポイントは二箇所でどちらで透明度の高い海でとても綺麗でした!
綺麗な魚や海亀にも会えました。
ただし、サンゴが沢山あるわけではないので、パラオや石垣方面でダイビング経験がある方には魚が少ないという印象を持つかもしれません。
船の上では朝食と昼食がでて、昼食のハンバーガーはすごく美味しいです!船の上で食べるからかもしれませんが。
飲み物もいつでも飲めるように準備してくださっていて、こまめな水分補給ができて良かったです。
酔いやすい人は酔い止めを飲んだ乗った方がいいです。しかし、私たちの場合はそれまでの旅行の疲れと酔い止めの眠気効果で船上で爆睡してしまいましたので、景色が見れなくなることもあります。笑
船の中には海で遊べる浮き輪などを備えてあり、誰でも借りられますし、船には滑り台がついていてそれもできます。滑り台はかなり高いところから落ちるので泳げる方にはオススメです★
