In short, it's a tour that takes you by bus to a Christmas night festival in Hawaii. For those who are unsure about the bus ride back and forth, taking this bus from Waikiki to the city makes it a fun experience. There are many white people on the bus and once you arrive, so you can really enjoy the foreign atmosphere, which is a hidden charm. There are some small stalls, but it's not the kind of place where you can eat a lot, so it's safer to have a meal beforehand. After returning, there weren't many places to eat open in Waikiki either.

簡単に言えば、ハワイのクリスマスの夜のお祭りにバスで連れて行ってもらうツアーです。
ただ、行き帰りのバスに自信がない人は、ワイキキから市中までこのバスで連れて行ってもらうと楽しく行けますね。バスの中も着いてからも、白人の方がたくさんいるので、え？っと思うくらい外国気分を満喫できるのも、隠れた魅力ですね。ちょっとした出店は出るのですが、ガッツリ食べれる感じでもないので、事前に腹ごしらえをして参加した方が無難です。帰ってきてからはワイキキでも、あまり食べるところが空いてませんでした。

We had a great time. Awesome crew and were able to see some dolphins.

I surprised my husband with the 5 star vow renewal cruise. The experience from the time John arrived with the limousine at our hotel, to the dinner cruise and back was simply amazing! Incredibly romantic! The dinner was so good and our server, Jeanette, was as professional as she was personable. My husband was speachless, but he did say yes to marrying me again.

Very well done. The young lady was very attentive and gracious. She helped make the experience very pleasant for all of us.

We were pretty disappointed with this trip. Just not as organized as we had hoped. We've been on many different snorkel trips over the years and this is one of the most unorganized we've attended. Competing boats seem to pass out gear and explain rules and safety regulations on the way to the destination. Then, once anchored, we can get in the water. This boat waits until we are on anchor, then starts the slow unorganized process of handing out gear. Takes way too long!

Food was decent, but mixed drinks were not! The captain, although tried to be funny, was not for the most part. We tried to have a conversation with him and generally got one word answers. So, he really wasn't interested in talking with us. When we were on anchor, he seemed to be more interested in flying his own personal drone around the boat.

The crew was nice and helpful, the captain, not so much! The best part of the trip was the photographer. Really a terrific individual, very personal with the guest and generally took an interest in the guest.

Overall, I wouldn't use this boat again.

Awesome awesome service. I booked a charter motor coach to take my herd of 15 people from Waikiki to Aulani. There were two pickup locations at Waikiki. Motor coach arrived early, picked us all up and brought us to Aulani safely. Driver was very nice. Plenty of room for our luggage.

Car was on time but itinerary outlined the day before with the Veltra rep was not communicated to the driver. The first stop was Diamond Head overlook. Car wouldn't start when we were ready to leave. Apparently we were out of gas. Had to wait > 30 min for someone to bring a gallon of gas. We then had to find a gas station to finish filling the car with fuel. The gas station was not on out agreed upon route. Driver was born / raised on the island and once we navigated the car issues there were some interesting facts he shared with us. It was so unfortunate the fuel issue ruined what could have been the bow on what was a great visit to Hawaii.

I reserved a 5-course meal at Celebration. The dining areas are on the 1st to 3rd floors, and we had a window-side seat on the 3rd floor! During the meal, we could freely go out to the hallway or the rooftop to take pictures and enjoy the view. It was amazing to see a rainbow, watch the sunset, and enjoy the Independence Day fireworks. Towards the end of the meal, we watched a dance show, and at the end, everyone in the audience danced together. It was fun from the moment we boarded the cruise until we disembarked. We also received photos as a gift, which made for a great keepsake!

セレブレーションの5コースを予約しました。
1〜3階が食事をする階で私たちは3階の窓側の席でした！
食事中は自由に廊下や屋上に出て写真を撮ったりゆっくり景色を眺めたりできました。
虹が出たり、サンセットを眺めたり、独立記念日の花火をみたりと最高でした。
食事の終盤にはダンスショーをみたり最後は観客みんなで踊ったりと、クルーズに乗ってから降りるまで終始楽しかったです。
写真もプレゼントされ良い記念になりました！

This was our second time attending the luau at the Sheraton and it was excellent once again. The entire luau is run efficiently and the food and entertainment are top-notch. While waiting for the food, you can participate in some ancient Hawaiian and Polynesian games and then you get to witness the unveiling of the kalua pig from the imu.

We got the vow renewal package for our parents and they had a wonderful time. The views, food and entertainment were absolutely perfect :) The staff took a video on my mother-in-laws phone and they also received a special photo. They absolutely loved it and said they would do it again :) They said the staff were awesome!!!

Great experience! Hawaiian Lei greeting was a huge surprise for my family. They were extremely excited. Even though I didn't get all the Leis I ordered, initially, our hostesses went above and beyond. She actually mailed our two kukui necklaces to our hotel. AMAZING!!!!!

This time, we went to Hawaii for the first time with our parents from both families to hold a local wedding ceremony. We wanted to create some memorable experiences to express our gratitude to our parents during our free time, so we booked a vow renewal and sunset cruise. We enjoyed dinner while cruising, watched a Hawaiian show, and had photos taken for each couple, allowing us to relax and enjoy our time.

The vow renewal ceremony itself was a first for our parents, and they seemed a bit shy about the idea of participating in such a ceremony. However, thanks to the open atmosphere of Hawaii, it all turned into a wonderful memory. By the way, I explained the vow renewal to our parents while we were having appetizers.

The ceremony could have been conducted for each couple separately, but we were able to do it for two couples at the same time. One slight disappointment was that our parents (and I) didn't understand much English, and the ceremony felt a bit rushed (perhaps because it was in between dinner?). Nevertheless, it was a valuable experience.

For now, the surprise was a success!!

The three-star atmosphere was lively, so it might be suitable for families. The meal portions and drinks were generous, and we left feeling full. The vow renewal could be a great surprise gift.

今回、現地挙式を行うため私達+私達両家の両親で初ハワイへ行ってきました。
フリータイムを有効に使って、何か両親への感謝を伝えられる思い出作りを???と･･･今回のバウ・リニューアル＆サンセット・クルーズを申し込みました。クルーズをしながらディナー、ハワイアンショーもみれて、カップルごとに写真も付いて、ゆったりとした時間を楽しめました。

バウ・リニューアルという儀式自体、両親達は初耳、まさか自分達がそんな儀式をするなんて
･･･ちょっと照れ臭かったみたいですが、ハワイの開放的な雰囲気のおかげで、全ては良い思い出になりました。ちなみに両親達にバウ・リニューアルについて、前菜を食べながら説明しました。
儀式はそれぞれの夫婦ごとに進めることもできたのですが、2カップル同時にさせていただきました。ちょっと残念なこととすると、親は(私も)そんなに英語が理解できなかった+儀式的にはあっという間(ディナーの合間なので？)ということでしょうか。でも、貴重な経験ができました
。
ひとまずサプライズ成功です!!

３スターは賑やかな雰囲気だったのでファミリーに向いているかもしれません。食事量も飲み物も２杯付いてお腹がいっぱいになりました。
バウ・リニューアルについては、サプライズプレゼントにいいかもしれませんょ。

The Luau was a hit of the trip to Hawaii. We have attended this Luau many times and it is the best on the Island. The food was wonderful, the dancers seemed liked they wanted to be there and it was outstanding

The class of 2016 had a wonderful time at Project Graduation, and we are so grateful that you safely got the students to their many exciting destinations around the island! Thank you very much!

It was a good massage. I added a couple things. Reflexology and aromatherapy(peppermint) for this massage. Unfortunately, I had a back spasm week prior and was still sore, so cannot say that the back was good. However, the neck was considerable difference, from being tight(from my back) to very loose, which in turn relieved pressure on the back.

Very professional and clean. Can't beat the price for what you get out here in Hawaii. Room is inside the Hotel and is set up as a massage room. They did a great job. Zero complaints.

My therapist was professional and the massage was awsome. Very pleased. Worth every dime...

We had a few hours to spend on Oahu between the time we left our cruise ship and our mid-afternoon airplane departure, so of course we set up our tour through Platinum Limousine Service. We had previously experienced a wonderful one day tour, but there were still sights to see. Pua picked my husband and me up from the cruise ship dock on time in a Cadillac Escalade, perfect for our luggage, too. We love these Escalades, because they allow a higher vantage point while driving around the island. Pua asked us where we had been, and then quickly mapped out a tour for a few hours of sights we hadn't seen. We saw different picturesque views of Diamond Head and Waikiki, and drove into the crater. We drove the perimeter of Diamond Head, seeing the lighthouse and stopped at scenic overlooks while Pua explained films that had been made there, or history about the area. She took us to see two different blowholes on the east coast, and the beautiful town of Kailua -- our favorite on Oahu. At Pua's suggestion, we ate lunch at Buzz's, across from the beautiful beach in Kailua, and it was delicious! I have never tasted such a wonderful squid steak, and our lunches were perfect. We drove along the coastline and then across the island to the airport, stopping at the Nu'uanu/Pali Lookout over the tunnel through the mountain, where the winds blow in a famous updraft that will take your hat off your head if you aren't paying attention, but which has gorgeous views of the island and the ocean beyond. Pua was an excellent guide, and knows the history of her island and willingly shares information on local customs and traditions. She is fun and personable. If you have a few hours or a day, set up a trip with Platinum Limousine Service. You won't be sorry.

This was hands down our favorite excursion on the island! Fantastic Crew, great food, fun music, great snorkeling, and lovely boat ride. We went with my mom and our 5 year old son. Both of them chose not to snorkel and still had a blast. Extra bonus, they have a photographer who took tons of photos (even underwater!) at the cost of $40 for the entire flash drive. Really great time! Highly recommend!! We will be back :-)

They made us feel right at home , once when we got there they were waiting for us as if they already knew us ..

We gathered around 4:30 PM and enjoyed welcome drinks, taking photos, and conversations with the people at our table. The food, a mix of traditional Hawaiian dishes and hotel cuisine, was very delicious. The show was entertaining, filled with laughter, emotion, and excitement. I believe it became a wonderful memory.

１６時３０分頃から集まり、ウェルカムドリンク、写真、テーブルの人たちとの会話を楽しみました。お食事もハワイ伝統のものとホテルのごはんがまじり良い感じでとてもおいしかったです。ショーも笑いあり、感動あり、迫力ありと楽しむことができました。
良い思い出になったとおもいます。

First off we got to ride on a double decker bus with Christmas lights strung on the roof which was not expected because of the title. That was definitely a pleasant surprise. The trolley picked up me and my girlfriend in Waikiki and took us through down town honolulu to see Christmas lights that you probably wouldn't park and walk to look at. The driver also acted as a tour guide talking on the speaker about the history of some of the buildings. Then we circled through to the big Santa and Mrs. Claus statue and the bus dropped us off for half an hour to walk around. Got picked up and dropped off at the same location we started off. No complaints at all.

It was wonderful to be greeted at Honolulu Airport with leis after a 9 1/2 hour overnight flight from Australia. The warm smiles of the young ladies who presented us with our leis made us feel truly welcome. We appreciated their patience as although our flight arrived on time there were significant delays passing through airport security / customs. The wives loved the fresh orchid leis which where quite beautiful. It was the perfect start to our holiday in Hawaii.

This was the best way to see the Honolulu Xmas Lights.... no traffic to deal with, no having to look for parking, a friendly driver, xmas lights on the bus and xmas music playing! The bus ride (a double decker!) was the best part of the entire tour!

This was the second year we took this tour. The check in crew, driver of the bus, and narrator were very friendly and courteous. It was a fun time for my family and I !

It was a very enjoyable time in a different space. I would like to participate again if I have the opportunity. Perhaps because there were many Japanese participants, there were a lot of performances of songs aimed at Japanese people.

異空間でとても楽しい時間でした。また、機会があれば参加したいと思います。
日本人の参加が多いためか、日本人向けの曲の演奏が多かった。

It was kind of confusing to load the boat due to everyone bombarding the captain but other than that it was AWESOME!! Best idea ever to bring in the New Year!!

This time, I participated with my parents and my husband, making a group of four. Even my parents, who usually complain a lot, were excited for their first countdown and had a great time.
We reserved a window seat with sparkling wine, and that was a great choice!
The food was also impressive, with a magnificent lobster and tender steak. I was very satisfied!

今回は両親と主人と4人での参加でした。文句の多い両親も、初めてのカウントダウンにテンション上がり、とても楽しんでくれました。
スパークリングを頼んでの、窓際席を予約しましたが、それが良かったです！
お料理も、立派なロブスターに柔らかいステーキ。大満足でした！

The crew was fantastic. The boat was brand new or at least kept that way We really enjoyed the experience!

Every year, I spend New Year's in Hawaii. This year, I decided to spend it on the Star of Honolulu and made a reservation. I chose the most luxurious plan, but when I got there, they packed in too many guests. The view from the front of the second deck was nice, but the amount of food served after 10 PM was overwhelming, and the meat was cold. The service was good, but I could hear the conversations of the people next to me.

The live jazz was great, but the neighboring room on the second deck seemed more casual with its food and had a hula show, which looked like more fun.

About 20 minutes before the countdown, we were guided to a spot where we could see the fireworks easily, but just before it started, there was an announcement in Japanese saying that the view was better from the opposite side. Everyone suddenly started moving to the other side, and when I asked the staff, they said it could be seen from both sides. Since the foreign guests didn't understand the announcement, many stayed put, and in the end, those who didn't move had a great view of the fireworks around Waikiki River and the Rum Fire area.

On the way back, we gathered again for the bus. We waited for about 20 minutes and finally headed home. I feel like it would have been better to watch from Kaka'ako Park.

毎年ハワイで年越ししています。今年はスターオブホノルルで過ごすことにして予約しました。
一番豪華なプランにして、いざ行ってみたら、客を詰め込みすぎ。二階の船の先端で、景色は良いけど食事は22時過ぎから食べきれない量、しかも冷めてるお肉とか。サービスは良いです。席は隣の会話まる聞こえ。
ライブジャズは良かったけど、二階の隣の部屋はリーズナブルな所なのか料理も少しカジュアルで、フラショーなどがあり、そちらの方が楽しそうでした。
カウントダウンの20分前に案内されて花火が見えやすい所を陣取っていたら、直前に日本語で反対から見えます、とアナウンス。一斉に皆反対に行きだし、スタッフに聞いたら反対からも見えますと。外国の方はアナウンスがわからないのでそのままだったりして、結局は移動しない方がワイキキ川、ラムファイヤーのあたりの花火がよく見えました。
帰りはまたバスに集合。20分くらい待ち、ようやく帰路につきました。
カカアコパークから見た方がよかったな、という気がします。
