Glassblowing, at its heart, is a team sport! We bill by the piece, but we can get more than one person working on each piece. Most pieces are great for either one or two people. We encourage teamwork with you and your fellow glassblowing students, making this an ideal activity for families and groups, large or small. As a team-building activity, glassblowing lessons bring you and your group together in a fun, challenging, and interactive format that strengthens bonds and encourages teamwork. When you come with your family and friends to make one or more pieces per person, we team you up to involve as many people as possible in the whole experience. The more pieces you make, the more experience everyone gets in the glass studio.

A unique and amazing experience!
We decided to add glass blowing to our most recent Hawaii vacation and it exceeded every possible expectation! I've been intrigued by Moana Glass for years and since we had an extended stay in Maui, I knew doing the glass blowing class and making our own glass sculpture was an activity that I was super interested in. It did not disappoint. First, upon check in, Dan was just awesome. Explaining to us the choices and options we had in front of us and carefully explaining how everything would work and what the process would be like. When it was time to start, we were introduced to our teacher, Yashu, and he was amazing. He was so patient with us and he walked us through each and every step, answered every question, and was just an exceptional teacher and person. We had an incredible experience and we're so proud of our new glass fish! This is truly a unique experience and I can't recommend the activity any higher, it was incredible and so much fun! Thank you, Dan, Ryan, Paul, and Yashu for this awesome adventure!
Response from the operator: Aloha, and thank you for such an incredible review! We love that Moana Glass had been on your radar for years and that finally experiencing a glassblowing lesson exceeded your expectations. We’re so glad Dan made the options and process feel clear from the start, and that Yashu’s patience and guidance made creating your glass fish such a memorable experience. There’s nothing better than leaving with a piece you’re genuinely proud to say you helped create. Thank you for spending part of your extended Maui stay with us. We hope to welcome you back for another glassblowing adventure in the future! Mahalo.

Glassmaking in Maui
The glassblowing class was a unique and fun experience. We shared the process of making a glass figurine and learned a lot about the different techniques in glassmaking. The guide was very friendly and patient. We recommend this activity for anyone visiting the area.

We’re so glad you enjoyed the hands-on experience of creating your glass figurine and learning more about the techniques behind the craft along the way. It’s wonderful to hear that your guide made the process feel welcoming and enjoyable. Thank you for recommending Moana Glass—we hope to welcome you back again on a future visit to Maui!

Create a great memory with this experience
100% recommend this activity. It's an experience you won't soon further. Hank was a great glass guide. I will do this every time I go to Maui. Been going for 26 years and just found these guys. The art gallery is wonderful with beautiful glass creations. Adam was great to work with to select an amazing piece to take home. I feel in love with the lotus

After 26 years of visiting Maui, we’re honored that discovering Moana Glass became such a memorable new experience for you.

We especially love hearing that you plan to make glassblowing with us part of your future Maui visits, and we can’t wait to welcome you back!

Memorable Experience
This was an amazing experience. Really got to participate and feel like I actually made it. Paul was an excellent teacher and I created a piece of art the I will have for ever. I did the fish and it was worth the upgrade.
Response from the operator: Aloha, and thank you for the five stars! We’re so glad you enjoyed how hands-on the experience was and left feeling like you truly created your own piece.

Blow Glass and Blow Your Mind!
Amazing experience! The entire process was fascinating and Vito was a great instructor who helped us feel safe and comfortable through each step. Everyone we encountered was friendly and knowledgable. My mom and I made a heart and a Christmas ornament that we will have as keepsakes of our special time in Maui! Highly recommend doing as a solo or group activity! Thank you Moana Glass!
Response from the operator: Aloha Livvy, and thank you for such a thoughtful review! We love that you and your mom chose to create a heart and Christmas ornament together—two special keepsakes that will always carry memories of your time on Maui. We’re so glad Vito made the entire process feel comfortable, safe, and fun from start to finish. Thank you for recommending the experience, and we hope to welcome you back to create with us again someday!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private One Piece Glassblowing Lesson for 1 or 2 People: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Maui.
How much does Private One Piece Glassblowing Lesson for 1 or 2 People cost?
+
Prices start at $300 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Maui usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private One Piece Glassblowing Lesson for 1 or 2 People take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Maui is not rushed.
Is Private One Piece Glassblowing Lesson for 1 or 2 People worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 54 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Maui, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private One Piece Glassblowing Lesson for 1 or 2 People?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private One Piece Glassblowing Lesson for 1 or 2 People suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private One Piece Glassblowing Lesson for 1 or 2 People?
+
Around 19 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Maui can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Maui and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private One Piece Glassblowing Lesson for 1 or 2 People start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Maui within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Maui?
+
Maui's three signature days are the Hana road, the Haleakala summit sunrise and the Molokini snorkel sail, and all three are logistics problems as much as experiences. Sunrise summit entry is permit-controlled, Hana is a ten-hour driving day, and Molokini boats vary wildly in size. Our ranking rewards operators who handle permits and keep boat capacity low. On Outty we rank every Maui experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Molokini Crater + South Maui Coast Adventure from Kihei, Maui, Road to Hana Adventure Maui Tour with Lunch, West Maui Snorkeling Experience by Boat from Ka'anapali. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Maui?
+
April to May and September to October. Whale season runs December to April. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Maui?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
