Bad last minute trip idea

Discover Lanai Day Trip from Maui, Hulopoe Bay Snorkeling & Sweetheart Rock
Amazing experience!
Reviewed by: J Yeung
I booked this tour for myself, my husband, and my six year old son. It was well worth it. Captain Travis and his crew were consistently attentive, well organized, and kind. The snorkeling spot was fantastic as well. The food was GREAT as I was expecting just a wonder bread ham sandwich, a bag of chips, and a can of soda. Highly recommend - esp. just based on the crew alone and nothing else.

Lanai Island Guided 4x4 SUV Sightseeing Trekker Tour with Maui to Lanai Ferry
Review ferry schedules before you book a tour
Reviewed by: Fred
Our guide was knowledgeable and very friendly. Problem is with the booking agency. We booked a half day tour that turned out to be a on day that the coast guard had required maneuvers that cancelled the mid afternoon ferry from lanai to Maui. Veltra knew this months in advance but didn’t bother to change our schedule. They informed us that we would be back by 5:00 but given no other information we assumed that the ferry ride took that long. They repeated that we had a half day tour. Big problem if you have nothing to do for hours on lanai and/or have reservations on Maui at 6:00.
That’s half of it. If you read Veltra’s description of the tour it sounds like you’ll tour the town, the garden of the gods, the shipwreck beach, and more. No way, as our guide pointed out when we told him what we expected based on Veltras description. It’s a big island and you can’t fit all those places in a half day tour

Expeditions - Maui to Lanai Ferry Boat Shuttle from Maalaea Harbor & Manele Bay
Lonesome Lana’i
Reviewed by: Scott L
The ferry was just fine but once on Lana’i there is little if nothing to do. There is one restaurant “the blue ginger” with ok food but surely order takers. There is no bar to grab a much needed drink. Two laps around the park and time to get a shuttle ride back. Two couples = $240 for ferry ride $80 for shuttle up and down the mountain, $50 for lunch = $370 bucks and 7 hours I’ll never get back.

Quicksilver Lanai Snorkeling Cruise & Dolphin Encounter with Meals [May-Oct]
Great experience
Reviewed by: Xiongwei
Pros:
Friendly and helpful crew members, and great communication from the captain when we encountered some dolphins.
I enjoyed the pulled pork for the lunch. Very fresh.
The snorkels they provided were way better than what you get at ABC stores for $10. Very easy to breath with, and I never got water inside the snorkel.
They provided great floatation devices. Noodles and belts. Made it easy to focus on watching the under-water world.
Cons:
Too much time spent on the way. I would like to spent ~30min more in the water.
Tips:
Bring your own disinfectant wipes to further clean the snorkel if you are concerned.
You can rent a GoPro on the boat to take video/photos under water. I tried water-proof bag with my cellphone, but it didn't work well.

Expeditions - Maui to Lanai Ferry Boat Shuttle from Maalaea Harbor & Manele Bay
Easy way to Lana’i
Reviewed by: Sherlocks
Fast and easy, comfortable seating, and on time. Ferry is large enough so the ride is smooth. Available times are convenient for an all day visit, or for a couple hours of snorkeling. Parking at Lahaina Harbor was not easy due to construction but we found a parking lot several blocks away. Our first visit to Lana’i…very laid back and pretty.
The crew on board was friendly and efficient. Safety of the passengers was a priority. Booking the ferry was fast and easy, and a change of dates was easily done by phone. Thanks for the ferry ride!

Discover Lanai Day Trip from Maui, Hulopoe Bay Snorkeling & Sweetheart Rock
Best Day Excursion!
Reviewed by: Shirley
My family and I had the best experience. From the moment we stepped onto the boat, the crew was very attentive, friendly, and funny. They provided a great overview of the day activities and what we needed. They checked on us frequently and even provided a little history lesson on the nearby islands. We took about 1 hr boat ride over to Lanai. Once at Lanai, it was a 7 minute walk to the beach. The beach was amazing!!! We did some snorkeling, a short nature walk, and had some time to chill at the beach. The BBQ LUNCH was delicious! The boat ride back we enjoyed 2 cocktails and ice cream. The crew exceeded our expectations. I would definitely do this again! I felt like VIP. Book it! You won’t regret it

Nothing Extraordinary Than Expected
Reviewed by: Daisy
It was just a normal ferry ride from Maui to Lanai that took about a 45 minute ride each way. The boat was not full so it was nice that you had some room to not have to sit next to someone. Though there was a line I didn't worry because there were plenty of seats. If you prefer not to be under the sun then sit inside otherwise if you want to feel the breeze and get some sun then sit upstairs.

Lanai Full Day Trip
Reviewed by: Austin
My wife and I had an incredible day on this excursion! The exclusive rights to the island that other tour companies do not have is what makes this company one of a kind!! They take you to a "private" beach and allow you to snorkel, hike, and provide a breakfast and lunch! There were other companies snorkeling around reefs but this company actually takes you onto the island!! We HIGHLY recommend! Captain Raquel and her crew were fantastic!

Maui to Lanai Snorkel Cruise with Optional Underwater Sea Scooter Upgrade
A Fun Snorkeling Experience for Everyone
Reviewed by: Bob
The snorkeling experience was very good. They were informative and patient, helping everyone get equipped. They had 2 spots, I would have preferred just staying at the first stop, as there was less to see at the second, and the swim back to the boat was tiring at the second stop. I recommend using a flotation belt instead of a noodle. I also recommend taking Dramamine for the ride there and back.
Overall a fun time and we saw a lot of beautiful sea life!

Learning about Lana’i
Reviewed by: W Funk
We were met at the harbor with plenty of aloha from our guide Joshua. He had an intimate knowledge of the island. From its long history to now, Joshua knew it all. He explained how the ecosystem has evolved through the years. We went to a great store and picked up some ono poke and a loaf of guava bread (cake) Joshua recommended. He dropped us off at an awesome snorkeling beach near the harbor. We spent the rest of our day on that beautiful beach snorkeling and enjoying our lunch. You’ve got to buy the guava bread! The ferry trip was easy and it was a perfect time to catch a nap. Well worth our time and hard earned money.

Lanai’I 4x4 SUV Tour
Reviewed by: Chin family
Our family truly enjoyed this tour of Lanai’i. It was made even better as we had Josh as our tour guide and he did an amazing job as our host on this breathtaking island. He made us feel right at home and was always making sure we were fine and asked us for our input on what we wanted to do / see on the island! He drove us to some very special places and told us wonderful stories about the Hawaiian culture on Lanai’i as well as current information about the island and its current population. He also made a special stop at the cat Sanctuary and our daughters were absolutely thrilled about this! Thank you Josh for making this experience most enjoyable and memorable for our family!

We boarded the ferry at the Lahaina main dock and took a very smooth 50 minute ride to the Lanai Harbor. We we greeted by our guide Josh. Josh was is an extremely passionate guide who explains current and past customs and cultures on this small but interesting island. He was very amenable to making stops in town to shop and to go to the world famous cat sanctuary for my wife! We had time to take in the beauty of the coastline as well as the mountain ranges. This guided tour is one of the best we’ve taken and Josh made all the difference. Thanks Josh!

Smooth Sailing
Reviewed by: Judith
The ferry ride to Lanai from Maui was on time, very organized, and smooth sailing at 6:45 in the morning. We spent the day in Lanai, and definitely worth it! Lanai was beautiful, and people there were all very friendly. The ferry ride going back to Maui from Lanai again on time. We didn't have to check-in again as we already have our boarding pass when we took it in the morning. Ride was good, wth a few rough spots as it was 5:30 in the afternoon, but I felt very safe. Will definitely do it again! Thank you for the wonderful experience!

Words cannot describe how magical and breathtaking this experience/tour was. My girlfriend and I had an unforgettable time on this full-day tour.

Review on boat shuttle.
Reviewed by: Sabrina Adsuara
The boat shuttle was good. The only thing I have frustrating to me is that there was no way to get around the island unless you booked a car two days in advance. And I booked to come back at 5:30 I had to go all the way back to the kiosk lady and tell them we want to go on the early shuttle back That’s after I was in line I wish there was clear instructions or somebody would announce that while sitting there waiting for the shuttle and standing in line
