The staff were super friendly and provided interesting information about Hawaiian culture. The first few lines warm you up to the last two, which are a 1/4 mile and 1/2 mile respectively. Both of the last two lines go over a gorge and the last one provides an incredible view to a waterfall. Overall, this was definitely worth it.

Overall, awesome experience! After reading reviews, I was super nervous about the validity of this site, especially considering that this site was able to get me tickets to a Luau that was sold out on all other sites. I called the venue to be reassured that this was a real site, and they confirmed it's validity! We showed up to the luau, had an amazing experience, and had 0 complications! Def. recommended!

A heartfelt welcoming by the family team! Loved that they are down to earth, invoke conversation with you, dead serious about your safety and constantly staying vigil of your swim out with the sharks. They constantly checked in with you to see how you’re doing from riding to from on the boat, to swimming in the open ocean. It was great to see the sharks get up close to you to make you a bit alert but nothing I could say was dangerous and a close encounter. I will come back to them for sure!! Island view Shark Dive Tour will be the place I’ll be recommending others to go try. Thank you team for a spectacular experience for my son and I.

We had a blast on this tour. The crew, food and humor made this trip a memorable one. They were very helpful and had two lifeguards on standby to assist if needed.

It was an amazing snorkeling adventure. My husband and I have never gone snorkeling the crew was amazing. They were helpful and very funny. I suggest doing this. You get to see many different types of animals and sights

Food was amazing … very good … but Server Daniel was outstanding… I recommend this activity…for sure good memories and beautiful pictures

This was my first time snorkeling and it was amazing! My husband and I enjoyed so much and we want to do it again! The staff were so nice and friendly, I was having a hard time with the breathing technique and the crew was very helpful with teaching me how to do it properly. Thank you so much again! You guys are fantastic!

If you've never Kayaked with your spouse. Practice yelling at each other before the tour. Once you figure it out, you'll be glad you did it. Amazing views and swimming in the grotto of the waterfall is an amazing experience!!

We did this tour with 3 kids under 10 & they freaking loved it!!!! I mean it was a great tour, we got to drive ATV's & see some really amazing views. I would definitely do this again. If you are thinking of doing it dress appropriately. You will get dusty on this tour. My wife got 3 white matching Jurassic Park shirts for the boys. By the end of the trip they were a light brown lol. This is an open air ATV ride through an active ranch. You will get dirty so don't wear anything you don't want to get dusty. At the end of the tour you will be able to wash your selves, but if you're that kind of person, you may want to bring some baby wipes or something extra.

I booked this cruise while staying in Waikiki on a solo trip. The staff and captain are personable and efficient and the catamaran is modern and roomy. We cruised along the coast towards Diamond Head crater and then put the sails up for a jaunty ride in the open sea for about 10 minutes. Captain turned the boat around to enjoy picturesque sunset views and some cool tunes while sipping on the crew members own recipe Turtle Tini. There were a mix of couples and multi generational families and the staff was accommodating to everyone’s needs, even those who were a little green in the gills from sea sickness. Highly recommended, even if you’re by yourself!

The crew is super friendly and helpful. This was one of my favorite parts of the trip. The sandbar is beautiful and secluded. They are very helpful in snorkeling as well.

The crew was professional and engaging. We were pleased with the beverage and food offerings. Even more so is that we lucked out with a spectacular sunset night and spinner dolphins that entertained us by swimming along with the catamaran. We sailed the entire time as the winds were good. Boarding and everything were simple and quick.
I'd highly recommend this activity!

Tour guides were great, nice, and informative. Sadly did not see any manta rays on our cruise. They said this was highly unusual but still disappointing to not see any. They offered for us to go back on a future tour, but we were leaving the island and they do not offer any refunds.

Sean was our guide and he was fantastic!!!
Very knowledgeable! We were shocked when he said he has only been on the island for 5 years. We thought he was living there a lot longer with the vast amount of information he gave us. He was very patient with us slower people, lol! Thank you Sean for a wonderful experience.

This is a tiny boat not a cruise by any chance. Very inexperienced young crew

Thank you for the amazing guide, Mr. Teriyaki (for short, Mr. Terry ;)）

We’ve had wonderful memories during our stay in Hawaii, and this activity was one of the most fun events thanks to him.

He has a lot of knowledge about the history, anthropology, sociology, biology of Hawaii, and Japanese culture too! Haha. We really enjoyed learning about them.

We were surprised that he is familiar with Japanese culture, and in some areas, he knows better than I do. I think he is respectful of other cultures. This is amazing, and we respect him too :)

We miss him and hope to attend this activity when we visit Hawaii next time.

Take care and stay healthy!

The tour guide was knowledgeable, entertaining, and made sure that all participants felt included, making him a truly wonderful person.

I believe the guide significantly influences the enjoyment of the activity, and he was truly the best guide, making this one of the most enjoyable activities during our week-long stay in Hawaii.

Definitely give it a try!

ツアーのおじいちゃんが知識豊富で、面白くて、参加者全員が取り残されないように気を遣っていて、とても素晴らしい方でした。

ガイドの方でアクティビティの楽しさって結構影響されると思うのですが、ほんとーに最高のガイドさんで、ハワイの1週間の滞在のうち、最高に楽しいアクティビティの一つになりました。

ぜひ参加してみてください！

The crew was professional and great. The whole experience was awesome. We had fun and it was a beautiful view. 5 star rating

The tour was relaxing and fun and our tour guide Kimo (forgive the spelling if incorrect) was wonderful and super friendly and took the time to get to know his passengers asking thoughtful questions and representing the kind Aloha spirit. We learned a lot about Hawaii and the movies while enjoying the beautiful sights!

We left late and were, as far as I could tell, the last boat to arrive. The place was pretty packed with people from the other boats. The ocean is pretty big so I'm not sure if we were so clustered because there's one particular spot that is best or because of some other reason. For the safety of the manta rays and possibly for your own safety, you don't actually get to swim in the water but rather your entire group are always holding on to a shared flotation device. It's not a good thing or a bad thing but something you should be aware of before signing up.
We saw one manta ray, which was a nice experience. Right after we saw it, the crew packed us up and headed back to the harbor. These are wild creatures so it's not like you're guaranteed to see them but I was expecting the crew to keep us there a bit longer. Anyway, my kids liked it, but I still wouldn't recommend this experience.

Saw lots of turtles and fish! Boat was clean, safe and well staffed. Bring a hat and lots of sunscreen. Crew of 5 and it was easy to get equipment on and ready. Our group had about 33 which was a lot - made for close quarters at times and a line at the stairs. Crew was quiet and all business … they were likely sick of tourists at this point. Beautiful pictures and scenery. Really nice catamaran.

Had wonderful time at the sandbar playing volleyball. Lots of fish to look at during snorkeling at the reef. The crew was helpful, courteous, and knowledgeable. Their involvement with the guest made the excursion.most memorable.

Professional transportation, friendly staff communicated agenda well, food was delicious. Views and activities were amazing.
Would definitely do it again. Well worth the money.

Not quite what I expected as you don’t get to snorkel around but breathtaking and amazing to watch those beautiful creatures at night in the light, it’s like they are dancing for you!

We did not see any turtles. Kinda wish my money was more worth it for that reason.

Book early, fun trip! This was recommended to me by a coworker who visited a month before my family. Glad I took her advice, loved it! We were upgraded to a private boat and loved our guide. He took us to the regular spot as well as a more private spot. We got lucky and saw many honu both big and small. It also helped that the weather was perfect. Definitely will do this trip again next time we’re at this island.

This is probably one of the best tours I have been on. The kids loved the tour as well! The ATV makes the adventure even more exciting! By all of the “!” you can probably guess how much our family loves it and that we will for sure do it again!

The Star of Honolulu was just simply AMAZING!!! Our server Sabrina was extremely nice and attentive to all of our needs. The assistant manager Robert was very nice and helpful when we didn’t receive our bottle of wine that we ordered. He took care of it immediately and brought it to our table. It was closer to the end of the cruise so we ended up sharing the bottle with our neighbors at the next table. We ended up booking this dinner cruise over a luau since we heard such good things about the Star of Honolulu dinner cruise and I’m so glad we did. The dinner show was absolutely amazing and entertaining. I will definitely book this cruise again next year when we come go back to Hawaii. Thank you to all your staff and crew for making it an unforgettable evening

It was an affordable and fun cruise with beautiful views. We also saw sea turtles. Also wear a swim suit, you’ll get wet getting in and out of the catamaran and during the cruise.

We had a fantastic day with the crew on the catamaran. Friendly, hospitable, and safety conscious staff made sure we all enjoyed the day snorkeling. Truly a fun day for my family.
We even saw rare dolphins and swam with turtles

This cruise was very nice and will do it again.
The price was reasonable and the people were very friendly.
