I ordered leis for my brother and his wife because they had never been to Hawaii and this would be a nice surprise. Our plane landed a little early so we missed our greeter. Finally caught up with him as he was getting in a car to go home! He didn't know we landed early. (I thought they were supposed to check on that?) The leis were beautiful and my brother and his wife were nicely surprised. I would do this again.

My husband and I have been to the Old Lahaina Luau and prefer it to this one hands down. Drums of the Pacific seemed corny, as another reviewer posted. The emcee sounded like a barker for a side show..."and now the GRRREEAATT, the FaNTAAAASSSTIC, So-And-So (can't remember the name of the dancer) performing the ...whatever. My brother and his wife, first time visitors, were with us and enjoyed it. We didn't tell them any different so as not to spoil their evening. For first timers, it's OK but if you want culture and history, Old Lahaina Luau is far better.

When it comes to traveling to Maui, whale watching is a must. I had heard that you could see them from the shore, but I thought it would be better to see them up close from a boat, so I made a reservation.
After about an hour of heading out to sea, we stopped the engine and waited for the whales. Before long, two whales appeared near the boat. I was thrilled to see their beautiful tails up close, just like in the catalogs. My wife and kids were busy taking photos.
Over the course of about 30 minutes, the whales appeared around the boat multiple times, allowing us to observe them closely.
The guide was very knowledgeable about the whales, pointing out when the same whale returned by recognizing its tail and sharing information about the ecosystem. They were also kind to the kids, making it a very enjoyable experience.
マウイ島への旅行といえばホエールウォッチング。
海岸からも見られると聞いていましたが、船の方が近くから見えると思い、予約しました。
1時間ほど沖へ進んだところでエンジンを停止してくじらを待ちます。
しばらくすると船の近くに2頭が現れます。
カタログでみるようなきれいな尾びれが間近で見られで大感激。妻も子供もひたすら写真を撮ってました。
30分ほどの間に船の周りに何度も現れてくれ、じっくり見ることができました。
ガイドさんはクジラにとても詳しく、尾びれを見てまた同じクジラがきたよとか、また、生態系の話しを教えてくれました。
子供にも親切にしてくれ、とても楽しかったです。

We wanted to experience a Luau. It was our first time to the islands. Even though the weather was less than great we had a great time. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to have the luau experience. The food was great.

I chose the four winds II because of the glass bottom viewing. We are a family of 4 and 2 swim and 2 do not. All had a great time. Snorkeling was great and saw some whales and turtles on our way back. The pulled pork sandwiches they serve onboard after snorkeling were the best. Would do this again.

Our tour guide was very nice and a good driver, and the vehicle was clean and in good condition. My neice and I were surprised and shocked to learn of the history of the people of Lanai'i and how past decisions of a few people greatly impacted the island and how those decisions continue to impact it today. Overall the tour was very enjoyable and I recommend it.

Overall this was a good experience for our first luau. The setting was very nice and the fire dancer a huge hit. I thought the dancers and entertainers were great but I would have enjoyed something a little more interactive. Example, instead of just selling the crafts, allowing children to interact. The food was good but the drinks were watered down. I didn't even finish one and ended up buying a $15 drink from the bar. We would likely attend again but also might look for something a little more interactive for the kids.

Since I have a small child, I decided to take this cruise ship where we could see whales on a large boat. I was thrilled to see dozens of whales. I requested a Japanese interpreter, and while the interpreter joined us on board, the amount of information provided was far less than the announcements in English. I had to ask the interpreter questions to get answers. I wished they could translate the English announcements directly. Other than that, I was very satisfied.
小さい子がいるので、大きな船で鯨に会えるというこちらのクルーズ船に乗船することにしました。何十匹もの鯨に会えて、感激です。日本人の通訳さんのリクエストをしたところ、通訳さんが乗船してくれたのですが、情報量としては、英語でのアナウンスに遠く及びません。自分から通訳さんに質問して、答えてもらうようにしないといけません。英語のアナウンスをそのまま通訳してもらえればいいのにな、と思いました。それ以外は大満足です。

Every December, I go to a remote island to enjoy snorkeling trips, but the weather is often bad during this time. However, this time the weather was fantastic, and we were able to relax comfortably on the deck of the boat.
There were some rough waves, so one person got seasick and had to sit down, but since they are generally weak on boats, there's not much you can do about that. The snorkeling at Molokini Island has excellent water clarity, but... although I wasn't expecting much, I was still disappointed by the lack of coral and fish. Having experienced Okinawa, the Maldives, and Palau, I can't help but compare.
At the turtle spot, there were several turtles, and I even encountered one that was floating while mating. However, the visibility there wasn't great, and there were no fish at all. Our group was the only Japanese people there.
Our guide, Takako, was friendly and cheerful, which made our experience enjoyable and comfortable. My father, who couldn't go into the water, was also satisfied because the weather was nice.
毎年12月には離島に行きシュノーケルトリップを楽しみますがこの時期は天候が悪いことも多いです。しかし今回はすっごく良いお天気で船のデッキで気持ち良くすごせました。
少し波が荒かったため1名だけ船酔いしダウンしましたがもともと船に弱いためこればっかりは仕方ないですね。
モロキニ島のシュノーケルは海の透明度は抜群ですが・・・期待していなかったもののやっぱり珊瑚や魚が少なく残念でした。沖縄やモルディブ・パラオを体験してるのでそれと比べてしまいます。カメがいるスポットには何匹もいて交尾しながら浮いてくるカメにも遭遇しました。ただここは透明度は良くありませんし全く魚はいません。
日本人は私達グループのみでした。
ガイドのタカコさんは気さくで天真爛漫。おかげでこちらも楽しく快適に過ごせました。
海に入れない父も天気が良かったので満足していました。

I've been on many sunset cruises that are fun when you are whit a group of people but they are less personal. This was a very intimate cruise for couples or close couples friends. This was a surprise for my girlfriends 30th birthday and she was very impressed. The staff was fun and professional, the cruise was VERY romantic, and the captain knew when the whales would appear which gave it a nice personal touch and made the trip that much more memorable.
I couldn't be happier with your service and I would highly recommend to future travelers.
Sincerely,
Jay

I was able to see sea turtles. They were very large, and I was deeply moved when I saw them.
At Molokini, I went snuba diving. It was easier and more casual than scuba diving, and I thoroughly enjoyed the clear waters. The cheeseburger for lunch was also delicious. Additionally, the Japanese staff were very attentive, and I had a great time.

When I chose this dinner cruise on our first trip to Maui, I thought "larger boat, more space". Instead, it was "larger boat more people". The four of us in our group could not believe how many tables were set up on the upper deck. In my opinion, it was not even safe if something had happened to the ship. I even had the sense that the ship was top heavy.
We sat near the bow in the center. For whatever reason, everyone was served around us before we received our food. We were absolutely the last people served, but we weren't the last table in any of the rows. I realize that some table has to be last, but it didn't make any sense in the way they served the tables. We even had to remind them that we hadn't been served. The people at the stern were close to the bar and the food. They were finished with dessert before we had been served. There was almost no way to get the three drinks included with the meal unless you ordered all of them at once. Too many people trying to order from one

My first snorkeling experience at Molokini Island!! I was worried because there were mostly foreigners around, but thanks to the friendly support from a Japanese female staff member (I'm sorry, I forgot her name), I enjoyed it more than I expected. The ocean in October was a bit chilly at first, but once I got in, it was warm. Molokini Island had cave-like formations and beautifully colored fish, making it so much fun that I lost track of time. It was incredibly enjoyable. Even though it was October, the Hawaiian sun was strong, and it got hotter as the afternoon went on, so I ended up getting sunburned!! For those participating, please apply sunscreen generously. Even with sunscreen, you can still get burned (laughs).
はじめてのモロキニ島シュノーケリング!!
まわりは外人さんだらけで心配でしたが、日本人の女性スタッフのかた(ごめんなさい。名前忘れちゃいました)のきさくなフォローもあり思ってたよりも楽しめました。10月の海ははじめはひやっとしましたが、海の中に入ってしまえばあたたかったです。モロキニ島は洞窟みたいなのがあったり、きれいな色の魚がいたりと時間を忘れるほどの楽しさでした。時間を忘れるくらい楽しかったです。10月とはいえハワイの日差しは強く午後になるにかけて暑くなり日焼けもしました!!参加する方は日焼け止めこれでもかってくらいぬってくださいね。塗っても焼けます(笑)

I participated with a friend last month. Since we didn't have a car, we chose a tour that provided transportation. After arriving at the harbor, a Japanese staff member took care of us, which made us feel secure until the end. We also participated in the snorkeling activity. They arranged for us to enter at Molokini Island, and since a group of Japanese girls who were supposed to join us canceled last minute, my friend and I ended up snorkeling together. However, I felt a bit embarrassed as a Japanese person. I borrowed a jacket, but it was warmer than I expected, so I might not have needed it. We also saw honu (sea turtles) several times, so I would like to participate again.
友人と先月、参加しました。
車がなかったので、お迎えがあるツアーを選びました。
ハーバーについてからも日本人のスタッフさんがお世話してくれて、最後まで安心でした。
スヌーバーにも参加しました。
モロキニ島で入るようにしてくれていて、一緒にもぐるはずだった日本人の女の子グループがドタキャンしたので友人と2人でもぐれました。
しかし、日本人としてちょっと恥ずかしかったです。
上着を借りたのですが、思ったよりも暖かく要らなかったかも。

You will gather at the meeting point by rental car. Since other boats depart at the same time, it can be a bit confusing, but look for the boat with Japanese staff at the furthest dock.
The boat takes about an hour to reach Molokini Island. It's a comfortable cruise, although the scenery might be a bit monotonous. Along the way, a Japanese staff member (who is nice) will explain some important information.
Upon arriving at Molokini Island, you can snorkel for about an hour. The fish are decent. The crescent-shaped island doesn't seem to matter much as you get closer.
After getting back on the boat, you can enjoy a hamburger while moving to another point where you can swim with turtles.
If your main goal is snorkeling, you might not need to join this tour. However, considering the unique location of Molokini Island combined with the cruising experience, it's a tour worth participating in.
レンタカーで集合場所へ、他の船も同じ時間に出発なので、ちょっとわかりづらいですが、一番奥の乗り場の日本人のスタッフがいる船です
船は一時間ほどで、モロキニ島へ到着。快適なクルーズです。景色はちょっと単調かな。途中、日本人のスタッフ(いい人です)から、注意事項など説明があります。
モロキニ島到着。1時間くらいスノーケリング。魚は、まあまあってところ。三日月型の島であるということは、近づくとあまり関係なくなります。
船にあっがって、ハンバーガーを頂きながら、別のポイントへ移動。カメと一緒に泳げます。
スノーケリング目的なら、別にこのツアーに参加する必要はないでしょう。モロキニ島という特殊なロケーションとクルージングとセットで考えると、参加したいツアーです。

There were just the two of us Japanese, but the staff, although they couldn't speak Japanese, were very kind to us. The weather was nice, the sea was blue, and it was a very pleasant tour. At the sea turtle point, we were able to swim together. If you go to Maui, it's all about the sea. I think this tour is just right for enjoying the ocean.
