It was a lot of fun to experience the boat trip with my friends. The boat was small and swayed a bit, but after having a cocktail, I felt energized. When I went out on deck, suddenly a whale appeared, surfacing multiple times and spouting water—it was a surprising and happy moment. We had a great view of Diamond Head, and the sunset was absolutely perfect for the mood. Just when I thought it was time to head back, the whale showed its tail several times, as if inviting us to come back to the waters of Hawaii. I plan to come again next year. The sunset cruise was amazing!
友人夫婦と一緒に初体験船は小さいがとても楽しかったです。船は少し揺れカクテルを少し頂いたら元気になれ甲板に出ると突然鯨が~背中を何度も出し潮吹きを目のあたりし驚き幸せのひと時でしたダイヤモンドヘッドが良く見られ日が落ちるサンセットはムード最高でした。そろそろ帰るのかな~と思っていると又クジラが尾びれを何度も見せていただき又ハワイの海に来て~
て行っているようでした。来年も来る予定です。サンセットクルーズは最高~です。

It was a wonderful cruising experience, and I felt very good. You can feel the wind and waves much closer than on a large cruiser. If you come to Hawaii, you definitely should go on this.
素敵なクルージングで とても気持ち良かったです。

I participated with two female friends. There were few Japanese people, and the staff communicated entirely in English, so the explanations were a bit lacking, but I could generally understand the atmosphere of the place. Even though I couldn't understand the words, I found myself laughing as everyone got excited. The sunset was beautiful! However, it was quite cold, and although there was an all-you-can-drink alcohol option, I couldn't drink that much. I realized that a thick hoodie is essential during this time of year.
女ともだち2人での参加です♪
日本人の人は少なく、スタッフの方もオールイングリッシュだったので説明などはいまいちでしたが、その場の雰囲気で大体わかりますし、みんながワーッと盛り上がっていたら言葉はわからないけど笑えてきました。笑
サンセットも綺麗でした!
が、どうにも寒くアルコールも飲み放題ですがそんなに飲めませんでした。この時期は厚手のパーカーなどが必須だなと実感しました。

I was finally able to ride the catamaran that I've wanted to try for a long time. Most of the people around me were foreigners, and there was no Japanese spoken, but even with my limited language skills, I had a great time! The crew was really nice! There are free drinks available, but be careful not to drink too much since there are no restrooms. Overall, I felt amazing. I will definitely do this again!
以前から乗りたかったカタマランに初めて乗ることができました。周りは殆どが外国の方で、日本語は無でしたが、片言しか話せない私でも十分!!楽しめました。クルーもかなりの、nice guy!!!フリードリンクで飲み放題ですが、トイレはないので飲み過ぎに注意。取りあえず、気分は最高。また、リピートします!!

You can enjoy sailing until sunset in the best location. However, while we were surrounded by lively foreigners enjoying the party atmosphere with Mai Tais, our family, being quiet Japanese, couldn't quite get into the mood... But after disembarking, we had all been holding it in, so everyone headed straight to the restroom at the Sheraton Hotel.
最高のロケーションで夕日が沈むまでのセイリングを満喫できます。
ただ、マイタイを飲みながらパーティー気分でノリノリの外国人の中で、無口な日本人の私たち家族はずっと雰囲気に乗り切れないままでしたが・・でも下船後はトイレを我慢していたので、全員がシェラトンホテルのトイレに直行でした。

I spent a few hours researching activities to do during our honeymoon to Maui. We decided that due to the exorbitant cost of drinks in any resort or restaurant we decided that an open bar cruise was going to be a great and cost effective experience.
I wasn't disappointed! The cruise was absolutely awesome. We saw at least 25 whales throughout the course of the evening which was fantastic.
The drinks were top notch as well. They had a huge number different top shelf liquors and made great drinks all night.
The crew was fantastic. They went over the top to take care of everybody's needs and made sure everyone was having a great time. I would highly recommend this cruise to anyone that wants to see gorgeous views, enjoy great drinks, and have an awesome crew.

We participated as a couple. We enjoyed views of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the nearby sea, and we witnessed the most beautiful sunset while sipping delicious Mai Tais! However, the experience before boarding and after disembarking was the worst. The meeting place was unclear, and it was hard to identify who the staff member was. There was no guidance even after the meeting time had passed. After guessing and asking around, we finally figured it out. The pre-boarding instructions were only in fast-paced English, making them almost impossible to understand. We were also forced to take photos before boarding. Upon disembarking, we were made to line up to buy those photos, and my wife, who needed to use the restroom, was left frustrated. The event itself was very enjoyable, but I think I would prefer a different yacht next time.
夫婦で参加しました。ワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドを近くの海から眺め、また最高の日没を拝め、おいしいマイタイを頂戴しました!が、乗船前、下船後が最低でした。集合場所はあいまい。誰が担当者か分からず。集合時間が過ぎても案内がなく。見当をつけて声をかけてようやく判明。乗船前の説明は早口の英語のみでほとんど理解不能。乗船前には強制的に写真撮影。下船時にはその写真を売りつけるために並ばされ、トイレに行きたい家内は顔をシロクロ。イベントそのものはたいへん楽しいですが、次回は別のヨットにしたいと思います。

We booked this cruise as a celebration for our engagement, and could not have been more pleased with the experience. The boat left a little later than posted, closer to 5:15, but it was good that they told us to arrive at 4:45 so we were not late, and others didnt slow us down. The crew welcomed us, gave us a run down on emergency procedures and rules, and we set sail! It was gorgeous out on the water. Jason, our captain, kept everyone informed and excited about the whales around us. We really appreciated that. They gave us a shout out over the PA for our engagement, and everyone toasted to our happiness. The crew, bartenders, captain and staff all made us feel special. The food was delicious, especially the shrimp and the artichoke dip. Full open bar (no champagne, but great wine and booze selection) and cheese platters, fruit, dessert. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Aloha, we (my boyfriend and I) are residents of Maui and attended the pride of Maui dinner/cocktail cruise for my pre birthday celebration this past Saturday. It was quite enjoyable despite the larger swells as we headed out along the coast. The food was fantastic, the crew was friendly and the bar was all you can drink so we were content. We enjoyed the experience for the deal that we were able to receive but I beleive if we had to pay full price we wouldn't have enjoyed it as much and would hope to expect more out of the experience. No one can help the weather or the ocean conditions but it felt like we were on a snorkeling boat standing up or sitting with no table eating dinner so it was a little steep in my opinion.

I really enjoyed the cruise. They started on time and I didn't have any issues confirming my seat through this website. I was on their list promptly. It lasts roughly two hours and the first 15 minutes generally consists of a safety briefing before everyone gets started. The crew was very informative and they allowed you to fully walk the boat as well as take pictures while you are stirring the boat. The sunset itself was beautiful and we happen to catch a few whales while out there. Overall it was well worth the experience. It's definitely a little pricy however if you are looking for a good cruise, this should definitely be something you consider.

We got a free shuttle bus from Waikiki but arrived in the harbor an hour earlier. I don't know why the driver pick us so early. We just stayed in the harbor and took pictures of us to kill the time. After we had done the tour, we needed to go back to the hotel by ourselves by using the city bus.
Hospitality, food, drink and music were all good! If you are lucky, you can see whales during winter. (We couldn't see them.) Besides that, the sunset was beautiful and hilarious.
We suggest that you had better to bring sweater, jacket or whatever you like to wear in December and January as it is chilly and windy. Overall, we highly recommend you join this tour if you have enough time in Waikiki. If you don't expect too much, then this cruise is for you. The ship was small but it was okay for us to enjoy having dinner and seeing the sunset.

It was windy and chilly because we joined this tour in the end of December. We thought Hawaii is hot even in winter but it wasn't. Early morning and evening was chilly. Jackets or sweaters are must! My dad felt bad as he wore short sleeves and short pants. I saw some people had sea sick. Some of them were lying on the chair and did nothing. One of the staffs take them and told them to breathe a fresh air. I realized staffs were considerate and generous. Besides, food was good. They had six dishes, which were teriyaki chicken, white rice, broccoli with beef, vegetable burritos, macaroni salad, and cookies. Everything was fine.I think teriyaki chicken was the best. Most of the dishes were cooked with vegetables so everybody can enjoy having dinner. However, the dinner would be better if all the food was hot until we started to eat.
Overall, We highly recommend you take long sleeves if you will join the cruise in winter. The sunset was beautiful and was the last time to see in 2014.(We're suppose to join the cruise on 30th but it was cancelled due to a bad weather. So, we did it the following day instead.) I guess all generations can enjoy this cruising!
