This was a fun trip, some bouncy times but your on a boat and it's only 45 minutes so not so bad. But when you get to lanai its incredible and worth the trip. Have to go to sporting clays and the koele lodge for lunch.. Great trip...

Took a ferry to molokai and enjoyed the trip, but ferry was very dirty and wished there was a better company to travel with

What to expect from monopoly? Recently my husband and I had a terrible experience on the lanai expedition boat. On our way back to the island of Maui we were terribly mistreated by the crew members. We were one of the last people to board on the boat and when my husband asked one of the crew members where he... More

it's a way to get to Lanai where you are able to enjoy the views. We liked seeing the islands from a distance and then getting closer and closer... And we did get to see some whales too. Once we got there we knew the trip was worth it. The beach was beautiful and we loved the walk to the... More

We booked ferry package online to ferry to Lanai and pick up a Jeep from Dollar Rental cars leaving on the 9:15 am ferry and to return on the last 6:45 pm ferry. With a 45 minute crossing, we anticipated 8 hours to explore the island. We paid approximately $250 for two ferry tickets and a one day Jeep rental.... More

We took the Expeditions Lahaina/Lanai'i Ferry on a day when they happened to be extra busy. Unfortunately, they had trouble handling the additional passengers. We arrived 30 minutes prior to departure as instructed and stood in line for most of the 30 minutes as one person in the booth sold tickets and filled pre-paid reservations. When we got to the...

Clean, well-kept ship, I've taken this ferry to the island of Lana'i several times and each time I've been pleased with their service and promptness. Take it for a quick day trip to Lana'i and Hulopo'e beach nearby. Make sure you know the return times. This company does a very good job!

Easy to get to Lanai on this ferry. They have a special compartment for your golf clubs. Go for the day. We stayed a night on the island. One man played both Lanai courses in the day and was back to Lahaina on the 4:30pm ferry - you can do it!

We scoped out this day trip months in advance based on TA reviews here and elsewhere and were really looking forward to it. Our first impression was not positive, however; the confirmation Email after booking it on-line we received incorrectly documented our reservation, and I had to call over to HI to have them send me a revised/corrected one (we...
