I participated in January. It was an English tour, but the instructor's explanations were easy to understand, and the crew was kind. Breakfast and lunch were delicious.
I only participated in snorkeling. It was disappointing that there weren't many types of fish near Molokini Island. However, there were wild seals. My companion who participated in the snuba got seasick, which was a bit unfortunate.
On the way to and from, we were able to see whales up close, and I was thrilled to see more whales than on a whale watching tour.
1月に参加しました。英語のツアーでしたが、インストラクターの説明も分かりやすく、クルーも親切でした。朝食とランチが美味しかった。
私はシュノーケリングのみに参加しました。モロキニ島近くはそんなにたくさんの種類の魚が見られなかったのでそれが残念。でも野性のアザラシがいました。スヌーバに参加した連れは波で酔ってしまったのでちょっと残念でした。
行き帰りにクジラが見られると近くに寄ってくれて、ホエールウォッチング・ツアーよりもたくさん間近でクジラが見られて感激しました。

Despite taking motion sickness medication beforehand, I suffered from severe seasickness and couldn't enjoy it much. However, there was ginger ale available on board that is said to help with seasickness, and the staff's consideration was appreciated. My husband, who went with me, seemed to enjoy it, so that was good.

I had a very enjoyable experience. As expected, the summit was extremely cold since it was January! It's a good idea to bring your own gloves and hat. The guide, Rick, was very fun and informative.
The moon was too bright, so I gave it four stars, but without that, it would have been five! It might be a good idea to check the moon chart before making a reservation!
とても楽しく参加できました。やはり頂上は1月だったこともあり、激寒です!自分でも手袋や帽子を持って行った方がいいですね。ガイドはRick,とても楽しくガイドしてくれました。
月が明るすぎたので、星4つとしましたが、それがなければ、5つですね!予約の前に月のチャートを確認して予約するといいかもしれません!

Molokini Island was a bit different from what I imagined... There were many cruisers docked, and it felt undeniably like a tourist spot, but the ocean was beautiful! At another snorkeling spot, I was able to see a sea turtle and was moved by the adorable fish I encountered. The lunch during the cruising (hamburger) was delicious, and the crew was kind (it was reassuring to have Japanese crew members). Above all, how many times did we see whales!! Even though it wasn't a whale watching tour... I thought it would be lucky if we encountered any, but the captain and crew's consideration was truly wonderful. It was a fantastic tour.
モロキニ島はちょっとイメージと違い…
沢山のクルーザーが停船していて、観光スポット感が否めませんでしたが・・・、海は綺麗!
別のシュノーケルスポットでは、海ガメを見つける事も出来、可愛いお魚さん達に出会えて感動しました。
クルージング中のランチ(ハンバーガー)も美味しく、クルーが親切(日本人クルーで安心)でした。
何と言っても、クジラを何度見た事でしょう!!
ホエールウォッチングツアーではないのに…遭遇できたらラッキー!と思ってましたが、
キャプテン、クルーの方々の配慮が本当に素晴らしい、素敵なツアーでした。

The sunrise tour on Maui was currently only available in English, and my family and I were a bit anxious about participating, but there were no problems at all. The view from the visitor center (3000m) just below the summit of Haleakalā was breathtaking, and the sunrise following the starry sky was refreshing and truly a heart-cleansing experience. My family was completely satisfied, and the view from the summit at 3055m was also fantastic after we moved by bus before descending.
In addition to preparing for the cold, I recommend bringing an LED light. The breakfast at the golf course in Kahului after descending was also good.
マウイ島でのサンライズツアーは現在英語ツアーしか無く、家族共々不安を持っての参加でしたが、まったく問題ありませんでした。ハレアカラ山頂、ちょっと下にあるビジターセンター(3000m)からの眺めでしたが、満天の星空に続いてのサンライズは清々しささえ感じた、心洗われる素晴らしいサンライズでした。家族一同大満足、下山前にバスで移動し、3055m山頂からの眺めも素晴らしかったです。
寒さ対策に加え、LEDライトを持参されることをお勧めします。

I was finally able to repeat my visit to Haleakalā! As everyone has mentioned, just like last time, I was welcomed by YAMAPEE's wonderful smile and engaging talk. The atmosphere among the tour participants was great, and we started off with a cozy feeling that you don't get on a large bus.
The summer Saturn and the close-up of the moon were impressive, but the starry sky during the winter new moon was truly sacred. No matter when you visit, Haleakalā shows a different expression, and I felt that every single cell in my body was rejoicing under the star-filled sky. Last time, I was able to see the death star of the Big Dipper, but this time we could all see the stars below the belt of Orion, as well as the Andromeda Galaxy.
It's an experience to have the sky right in front of you completely filled with stars... It would be a shame to go to Hawaii and not know about Maui, and it would be truly regrettable to go all the way to Maui and not climb Haleakalā. I really want to share this experience with others, and I might insist on it with my friends again.
It was so much fun with everyone who was there! Thank you to the Osaka team for including us! We got some wonderful photos. I'm so happy—I even bought a special frame! Thank you, YAMAPEE, for your professional guidance once again! With so many repeat visitors, please continue to create tours even after the 3055th time!
It was a truly joyful tour filled with happiness. Thank you, thank you. I look forward to our next reunion!
念願のハレアカラにリピートできました!
皆様が書いてらっしゃるとおり、前回とかわらずYAMAPEEさんの良い笑顔、トークに迎えられ、ツアーの皆様の雰囲気もよく、大型バスにはないアットホームな感じでスタートしました。
夏の土星や月面のアップも感動的でしたが、冬の新月の星空は神聖さそのものでした。
いつ来ても違う表情をみせてくれるハレアカラの懐の深さ、満天の天プラに細胞の一つ一つが喜んでいたと感じます。前回は北斗七星の死兆星など見れましたが、今回はオリオン座のベルト下の、くの字の下の星がみんな見れたり、アンドロメダ星雲などを見せていただけました。
目の前の空が全部星で埋め尽くされているなんて体験できません。。。
ハワイにいって、マウイ島を知らないのは勿体ないし、マウイまでいって、ハレアカラに登らないのは本当に勿体ないことだと思います。
ぜひぜひ同じ体験を分かち合いたいなと、また友人達にしつこくしそうです。

I was not looking forward to a 2:50am pickup at the hotel, but the transportation was very comfortable and Rory, our tour guide, was exceptional. He talked most of the way over to Haleakala about Hawaiian culture & traditions so it was informative. When we got to the observation area, Rory took us to 'the best spot' for viewing which also blocked off the wind that was blowing. It is strange at first because the darkness hides the landscape. But the stars were as beautiful as I've ever seen them. Then the horizon began to glow and things moved pretty quickly until full sunrise. We then moved to the 10000 ft observation area and the view was breath taking. Tour finished with a nice breakfast at Café O'lei and we were dropped back off at our hotel in Lahaina. This is a spectacular event and really different from other Maui activities. Pack some warm clothes!

It was great flying from Kapalua airport as we were staying in Ka'anapali. Plus the flight over to Oahu on the small plane was wonderful. We had fantastic aerial views, saw some whales and a beautiful rainbow and our approach in Honolulu took us directly over Diamond Head. We did the whole tour - the Arizona, the Missouri, the Bowfin and the museum, so we felt a little rushed to see it all. Otherwise, it was a wonderful day!

This is my second time. I applied again because I enjoyed it last time.
Overall, I had more fun during the first visit.
- Molokini is deep, has few fish, and is far away.
- The snorkeling off Wailea was murky. I couldn't see the sea turtles I encountered last time.
- We had a great view of the whales this time.
- The hamburger was delicious, as expected.
- The swaying and waves were still intense.
I feel like once is enough. If you're just looking to snorkel, there are many places in Maui that are closer and have plenty of fish to see.
2度目です。前回よかったのでまた申し込みました。
全体的に初回のほうが楽しめました。
・モロキニは深くて魚が少ないし遠い
・ワイレア沖のシュノーケリングは水が濁っていた。前回会えたウミガメにも会えず
・クジラは今回のほうがばっちり見えました。
・ハンバーガーはやはりおいしい。
・揺れと波は相変わらず激しい
1度行けばいいかなという感じです。
シュノーケルだけならマウイにはもっと近くでいっぱいの肴に出会えるところがおおいので。

Suddenly, it started to rain, and I think the temperature at the summit of Haleakalā was close to 0 degrees. I felt that Iao Valley was a place with some kind of power. The people of Maui referred to it as "blessing rain." It felt like my unnecessary energy was being washed away. The hotel pickup was around 6:30, but the actual departure from the meeting spot was around 8:30, so it seems like the hotel pickup could be a bit later.
急に雨が降り出し、ハレアカラの頂上は0度に近かったと思います。イアオ渓谷はなにかパワーのある場所のような気がしました。マウイの人からは「祝福の雨」と言われました。自分の不必要なエネルギーが流されたような気がします。朝のホテルピックアップは6:30くらいですが実際の集合スポットからの出発は8:30頃で、ホテルピックアップはもっと後でもいいような気がします。

Every time in Maui, I would usually just relax at the hotel besides playing golf, but this time I participated in a sightseeing tour for the first time. The weather was great, and I was able to see the best sunset and starry sky.
The winding road to the summit has no guardrails, so I really appreciated using the tour. I enjoyed the explanations at the summit and the observations through the telescope.
For dinner, I bought packaged sushi at the supermarket. For a couple in their 50s, this was also an extraordinary experience that we enjoyed.
This time, a young Japanese-American man was in charge. He seemed to have little experience, but his earnestness came through.
However, that beautiful starry sky was probably a once-in-a-lifetime experience!? I wanted to quietly take my time to enjoy it. I found the explanations about the stars very interesting, but in the freezing cold, I was a bit taken aback by how he endlessly talked about his background and feelings towards his job. Also, it was not appropriate for him to speak ill of other companies while trying to convey the greatness of his own. It seems like youthful passion can sometimes miss the mark. He is someone I look forward to seeing grow in the future.
As you mentioned, I believe the company is sincere and solid. If I have the opportunity, I would like to participate in another tour.

My family and I had an amazing day with Dawn as our guide on this excursion. She was knowledgable, friendly, smart, skilled, and funny! The excursion itself introduced us to the rain forest of Maui which was beautiful in its terrain and a bit challenging to navigate. Dawn gave us all the confidence we needed so we could rise to the challenges while being gracious to those who did not choose some aspects (cliff jumping) of the tour. Overall, it was a highlight of our entire Hawaiian trip. Dawn was fantastic. Lastly, the water shoes (available for a nominal charge) are a necessity.

It was the season for whale watching, so we encountered many. Advice for participants: confirm your reservation by phone, communication is only in English during the tour, and there is a 'roll call' both going and returning for peace of mind. You can also choose the amount of food and drinks yourself, which is reassuring.

The tour was good overall. Due to weather we didnt get to swim by the waterfalls, I wish they had offered another option like more time in black sand beach, knowing that it was impossible to swim in the other part. (I had brought my swimsuit, towel and extra clothes). I liked it that they offered complimentary juices and water bottles on the bus. If you don't pay for the tour that includes lunch, there are more options to find good food walking distance from where the bus stops for lunchtime, so I didn't regret not paying for that

I cannot recommend the Four Winds enough! The crew are all fantastic and make you feel welcome right from the outset. Captain John is worth the price of admission alone! We were provided a great breakfast and later lunch with all drinks included, we were well looked after. The equipment used is sanitary and of a high quality and the boat itself is very comfortable.
We were lucky enough to see several wales on the way out to Molokini and the crater itself provided some of the best snorkelling you can do. The other patrons were of all ages and ethnicities and got along famously - this is a great option for those with kids too.
I find it hard to believe you could find a better way to go to Molokini than with the four winds!

This is my second time with this tour. Dawn was our guide, she is very friendly, funny, kind and knowledgeable about the area, the vegetation and the threats to the eco- system in Hawaii. She did some cliff diving, took us on an off the beaten path hike that was something I would never do, including going in twice into freezing water up to my chest. We were exhausted but it was an amazing day. The fresh fruit on the trip and the openness to do things that the group waned to do, such as stopping at both the black and red beaches and getting Hulihuli chicken was great.

Really nice tour to summit and super dinner at Café O Lei.
While Mother Nature didn't necessarily cooperate (she rained on us the last 2 days of trip, but it might have been our fault as we stupidly asked for her to turn the wind down a bit the first 2 days ;)...) the sunset wasn't brilliant but still awe inspiring (also got a glimpse of how beautiful it could be on the flight out the next day still very cloudy - could see more color and summit as we took off...). Oh lavender farm was nice too - I'm not a lavender person but whole area was beautiful and people at farm nice.
Tour was still great - views were still stunning - dinner was really good and other people on tour were quite a fun group!

I am so glad I decided to take this tour! We had taken the Road to Hana on our own 4 years ago. The experience was such that I felt the need to come back, but this time by means of a tour guide that would tell us the background of all the wonders we got to see and experience back then. This stretch of the island of Maui is so rich in history. Turns out I was right. Thanks to our tour guide/driver, Larry. He made this experience all the more magical. I am a history enthusiast. Larry touched on every aspect of this journey. From the vegetation's different species (origin, current and past uses, etc.), rock formations, the incredible waterfalls and grottos, to the towns people of present and past. Oh, and the beaches, breathtaking. I loved soaking my feet at Blacksand beach. Wish we could of stayed there longer. I appreciated our stop at the local's farmers market. Got to sample a taste of the locals organic fruits, banana bread, fruit jams and honey. I was able to purchase of everything I sampled. This is definitely a tradition for my family. When in Maui...Tour Guided Road to Hana Highway Adventure is a must. These drivers are experts, I will leave the driving to them! While I sit back and enjoy the trip.

I definitely agree, and I think it would be best to look at the lunar calendar when deciding on your travel dates. If the sunset and moonrise times are offset (by at least two hours), a full moon won't be a problem. A new moon provides the best conditions for stargazing.
確かにその通りで、月齢表をご覧になって旅行の日程を決められたらベストだと思います。サンセットの時間とムーンライズの時間がずれていれば(最低2時間)満月でも問題ありません。新月が、星空観測に関しては1番の好条件です。
