Oahu
The service was excellent, the food was great, the ambiance was unforgettable - need I say more,
Amazing cruise, had a lot of fun with friends. Dance performances are really good. Not many food options for vegetarian/vegan people. I think they can even improve the quality of non-vegetarian food.
Can't go wrong with a nice evening on the gorgeous Waikiki shores!
Really delicious food and friendly staff! Thank you for the great evening.
It was a nice experience. It was a bit crowded so didn't feel as intimate as I expected.
Ride to the ship was ok. Getting onboard was good. Overall food on deck 2, roast beef menu was subpar. Not good enough to want seconds. Wife and I felt this excursion was way too long. Especially being on the water got boring and we love the water. Sorry but the entertainment was that exiting. We were just counting down the minutes to get off the ship. The staff was nice and accommodating but the overall feeling of wanting to stay on the ship died off after the first hour on board.
Outstanding food and drink along with spectacular views of Waikiki at sunset. Service was great and the show was very upbeat and both entertaining and educational. Would do this dinner cruise on future visits. Easy to book, our bus driver was on time and educated us about different places along the way to the ship.
Food was Great, music and entertainment was lots of fun!
We really enjoyed our dinner cruise. The food was delicious, service was great, live performance entertainment was amazing, and the view was spectacular!
Aloha World
We thoroughly enjoyed our Night Cruise into Happiness last night with the Star of Honolulu crew and amazing entertainment
We did this cruise 41 years ago and it was just amazing then and spectacular now! The steak and lobster with the attentive crew made for a flawless experience! The main singer carried your spirit to the best times. We also loved the smooth jazz music Finally the Hawaiian dancers made us feel like true Ohana ❤️
Mahalo for another superb evening
Absolutely breathtaking views, great instructor, well trained horses and an overall amazing time :)
Food was great but the show was even better! Great time!
This is definitely to be done again! Was an amazing experience
The experience was great! The food was good and the service great. We did the 3-star dinner and it was so much fun. We did the private table upgrade, which is worth the extra cost. Also, pay a little extra to have them pick you up with their shuttle service. Overall, we highly recommend this experience!!!
We had a great time, the food was delicious and the show was outstanding. We even got to share in celebrating a wedding.As usual such a great dinner cruise, thanks.
This was a great evening on our trip! The food was really great and the entertainment topped off the evening!
Great food, and wonderful service by Danny! The Polynesian show was incredible. The ship was beautiful and easy to access all levels.
It was a very beautiful evening, watching the sunset as we cruised Waikiki. Great transportation!
The horses were very well behaved and in great shape. We had a beautiful sunset ride and the guides were very informative and fun to be around. Loved this activity!
Went here last year during the firework show 10/10
My only complaint was that I couldn't see the sunset and the show at the same time. But it was so wonderful and relaxing. The food was great. The entertainment was amazing. The view was breathtaking.
Food was really yummy, and the entertainment was so fun! A fun date night away from restaurants
We did a private ride at sunset and it was incredible. Our guide was so nice and the horses were lovely. The sunset was magical against the ocean and the mountains, and we even saw a rainbow! Would highly recommend!
The staff and crew were amazing as well as the foood. The entertainment
The food was good, the entertainment and the sunset view was incredible!
The ladies that took us on our ride were absolutely delightful. They were thorough about safety and just lovely to talk to. They obviously care very much for the horses and know them well.
The evening was beautiful despite the risk of rain and the timing was perfect to have photos with the sunset behind us.
My only negative was that it was advertised as a 90 minute ride and it was only 60 minutes.
I participated in this tour in early February 2023. One of the things I wanted to do in winter Hawaii was whale watching, and since my hotel was Aulani, I joined this tour departing from Ko Olina Marina.
It takes about 25 minutes to walk from Aulani to Ko Olina Marina, and about 5 minutes by car. The tour included four alcoholic drinks, so I walked there instead of driving, but I was a bit tired on the way back (^_^;).
Upon arriving at the marina, the check-in area was easy to find. I signed in on the list, received a wristband, used the restroom, and boarded the boat. There were about 15 to 20 guests at that time, but we were the only Japanese group. All the explanations were in English, but a young Japanese male staff member came later to explain in Japanese, and he also supported us during snorkeling, which was very helpful!
After the boat headed out to sea, we encountered a mother and baby whale! I was incredibly excited to see the whales spouting water and their tails coming up to the surface with my own eyes! Since it was an evening tour, we didn’t see any dolphins, but I was very satisfied to have encountered the whales.
After that, we went to the snorkeling point and enjoyed snorkeling. During this time, we encountered a sea turtle. I was moved to see it coming up from the bottom of the ocean for air, floating on the surface, and then returning to the ocean floor, all from a very close distance! The water was a bit cold during this season, but I was glad I participated in snorkeling! After snorkeling, it was chilly, so I changed from my swimsuit to regular clothes in the boat's restroom. The restroom was a bit spacious with shelves, making it suitable for changing. There were two restrooms, one on each side at the back.
After snorkeling, we enjoyed dinner and the sunset. The dinner was served on a single plate, but it was piled high, so I was full! The taste was also delicious. The sunset from the boat was absolutely beautiful.
I think this is a highly recommended activity for those staying around Ko Olina!
2023年2月上旬に参加しました。
冬のハワイでやりたい事がホェールウォッチングで、宿泊ホテルがアウラニだったのでコオリナマリーナから出発するこちらのツアーに参加しました。
アウラニからコオリナマリーナまでは歩いて片道25分くらい、車だと片道5分くらいです。ツアーにアルコールが4本かな?含まれていたので車は使わずに歩いて行きましたが帰りはちょっと疲れました(^_^;)
マリーナに到着して受付の場所はわかりやすかったです。名簿に記帳してリストバンドを付けて、御手洗を済ませてボートに乗り込みます。
この時は15名?20名??くらいお客さんが居ましたが日本人は私たちのグループだけでした。
色々な説明は全て英語でしたが、若い日本人男性のスタッフさんがあとから日本語で説明しに来てくださって、その後のシュノーケルもサポートしてもらえたのでとても助かりました!
ボートが沖に出て少しするとクジラの親子に遭遇出来ました!肉眼でクジラの潮吹きや海面の上に出てきた尾びれを見られてものすごく興奮しました!夕方のツアーなので時間的にイルカは見られませんでしたがクジラに遭遇出来たので大満足でした。
その後シュノーケルポイントに行って、シュノーケルを楽しみました。この時に海亀に遭遇出来ました。海の底から息をにし浮上してくる様子や海面をぷかぷかしている様子、また海の底に帰って行く様子を近づくことが出来るギリギリの距離で見られて感動しました!
この時期の海はちょっと寒かったですが、でもシュノーケル参加して良かったです!
シュノーケルの後は寒かったのでボートのおトイレで水着から私服に着替えました。おトイレは少しだけ広めで棚とかがあったので着替えスペースも兼ねている感じでした。おトイレは後方左右に1つずつ計2つありました。
シュノーケルが終わるとディナーとサンセットを楽しみます。ディナーはワンプレートですがモリモリに盛ってもらえたのでお腹いっぱいになりました!味も美味しかったです。ボートからのサンセットもすごく素敵でした。
コオリナ周辺で宿泊されている方にはとてもおすすめのアクティビティだと思います~。
We took this cruise to celebrate my husband's birthday. The cruise was wonderful. We enjoyed the food and the entertainment.
Check in was simple and organized.
I was able to get my parking validated by purchasing coffee at a shop before checking in.
We saw a whale in the distance while on this cruise.
Definitely worth the upgraded event, the dinner was nothing short of delicious, the staff was impecable as well! MAHALO!!
Awesome dinner cruise! We had fun and the foods were delicious!! Don’t forget to tip!! They took a picture of us it’s $27 and some of the packages has it. They also have lei flower for $15.
Awesome ride and and ocean view. The ladies had extensive knowledge in handling horses. Our guide was alway attentive to our needs and mostly to make sure we were safe. Mahalo
