This was my eighth time on Maui, but it was my first time attending a luau in person. The show was wonderful, and the food was local cuisine. The steamed pig, in particular, was very delicious, and I went back for seconds multiple times. It was a fun experience with food that exceeded the price! ^_^
マウイ島は8回目でしたがルアウを目の前で見るのは初めての参加です。

There were no Japanese-speaking staff, but everything went smoothly and I had a great time. I couldn't figure out the parking lot and the free service points from the map. Also, I wasn't quite sure about the grassy area. Those two points were disappointing.

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.

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. What a great experience for anyone and everyone of all ages.

We had visited Maui several times, but we had never had the opportunity to go to Molokini Island, so we were able to enjoy snorkeling this time.
The boat had free drinks and a restroom, which made it comfortable for us.
The Japanese guide also did a great job supporting us. Thank you very much.
We were lucky enough to see both turtles and dolphins, making it a satisfying tour.

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。
なので、可もなく不可もなくといった感じでした。

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!
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.
Scott Turner

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.

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★

The day was spent in a most enjoyable way.
We started on time and went to first snorkeling spot after about one hour cruise. Since we left at 700 am, (early in the morning) they gave us good breakfast. The water is blue and beautiful. We saw some flying fish while sailing which I got amazed. They have wings(?!), come out of water, fly for about three feet above the surface and go into water. It was amazing to see a fish with wings. They clearly flew and not just jump in and out of water.
The captain gave a 5 min lesson on snorkeling 101. It was full of very helpful tips and this greatly helped to snorkel without fear. The gears were provided. By the end of the day I became an expert. This is an example, how useful the people are to help you whatever you need in the trip.
The snorkeling part was very enjoyable and after about one hour, we were allowed to jump into the ocean from the second level of the cruise ship via a slide. That was so cool.
Next we went to a second place and we got to see lots of turtles. Some turtles came to top of water, so you can see them from the boat. We snorkeled and also jumped into water from the second level of cruise via slide for about one hour. It was fun. Lots of foods, drinks were given. We returned by 200 pm. What a day to spend.

Before boarding, the morning view of Lahaina was very calm and beautiful. After checking in, we moved by boat to board the submarine, but it can sway a lot, so if you're prone to seasickness, I recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance. Since I was the only one participating alone, I was prompted to board the submarine from the back, which made me feel quite conscious as I had to peek in from one window with several people. If you join with friends, a partner, or family, I think you can enjoy it together from one window. The dolphins swam around the submarine, and I was very happy because I had hoped to see them. Next time I go to Maui, I will participate with my husband.
Was photography prohibited inside the submarine? I'm not sure if there was an explanation about that beforehand... After taking a few pictures, I noticed many people staring at me, which made me wonder if it was not allowed. If it was indeed prohibited, I apologize and will delete them.
乗船前、朝のラハイナの景色もとても穏やかできれいでした
受付のあと、潜水艦に乗船するまで船で移動しますが、大きく揺れることがあるので、船酔いが心配な方は事前に酔い止めを飲んだほうが良いと思います

It was my first time on Maui, and my first participation in this tour. I went to the meeting place by rental car after checking it out the day before, and then it was time for the tour! However, the lady in the parking lot directed me to a spot that was quite far from the reception. Before boarding, I had to sign a waiver acknowledging that I was responsible for any accidents that might occur. First, we were served light snacks on the boat. Even though I had eaten at the hotel, I couldn't resist and ended up overeating, which made me seasick. During snorkeling at Molokini Island, I accidentally swallowed a lot of seawater. The visibility was indeed excellent. We also got to see sea turtles during our travels. There were some unexpected events, but overall, it was a lot of fun.

The tables and seats were packed in close and the chairs bolted to floor. It was really difficult to get in and out of chairs to go to bar.

I participated with my wife. There were no other Japanese participants besides us. There were about 15 passengers, mostly couples and newlyweds. It seems that there is a limit on the number of participants, so we were able to use the space comfortably. We could move freely inside the ship, and it was also possible to lie down on the deck. The meals were served buffet-style, and the taste was quite standard.
The ship itself was large and had little sway, so I was able to consume alcohol without feeling seasick. Since we departed during daylight hours, I recommend using sunscreen and a hat (which are provided on board).
Additionally, since the pick-up time to the hotel was around 4:00 PM, it is also possible to participate in this tour after morning activities.
妻と参加しました。自分達以外の参加者で日本の方はおられませんでした。乗客数は15人程度で夫婦や新婚旅行で来られた方が多かったです。おそらく人数制限していると思われ、広々と使うことができました。船内は自由に移動ができ、デッキの上で寝そべることも可能です。食事はビュッフェ形式で、味は一般的なものです。
船自体が大きく、揺れが少なかったのでアルコールを摂取していましたが、船酔いすることもありませんでした。明るい時間帯から出港するため、日焼け止めや(船内に装備されています)帽子の使用をお勧めします。
上記に加え、ホテルまでのお迎えの時刻が16:00前後であったため、午前中のアクティビティの後にこのツアーに参加するといった方法も可能です。
