The show was good. The host is very entertaining. Food is as usual, nothing spectular. Upon arrival, only adult received drink tickets which the description did not indicate kids and youth don't get ticket for drink. With the price, the kids deserve soda tickets. It will be better if there are more pre-show activities, such as more photo backdrops and more lighting.

My family had a wonderful experience with star cruise. Great food, very accommodating staff, great show and best of all is the sunset. And to top it all, great fireworks to end the night. Just make sure you book on a Friday to see the fireworks.

We loved the PCC and all it offered. I still admit the Samoa man Cap, is still my favorite, even after 15 years, he's still there and such a delight. We loved the origami birds also in Samoa. So much to see and enjoy. We love you!!!

This is they way to go! From the smooth pick up, to our awesome driver Kimo who was welcoming, funny and shared so much information throughout the tour up to the end. We enjoyed ourselves while at the Pearl Harbor and did not wait in any lines thanks to this booking. We even got to buy tickets to experience the other museums and walk through the USS Bowfin and the picture they took of our family was a great keepsake.We had a wonder experience from beginning to end.

I took my parents, brother, aunt and cousin. We all loved the special treatment with the package. The food was above expectations. The views were nice. Loved the fireworks on the Friday night cruise. The music and entertainment was amazing. The young lady who served us was a new trainee and did a wonderful job. The only thing that was a little off putting was the manager’s conversation was a little repetitive throughout the dinner.

We booked a shuttle to and from the Luau and paid for the Standard Package. This set up was perfect. The shuttle boarding was organized, spotless, and new. Our guide filled us in on expectations of the ride and luau. There were funny stories/laughter/entertainment on the bus. The luau was exceptional, professional, very well organized and laid out. Something for everyone. The dancing/singing was fantastic, everyone could see the open air stage from their seats, food was fantastic and lots of it. Drinks were aplenty, beautiful backstage for pictures either by a professional for purchase or your selfie.
I would absolutely take this again and recommend it to everyone!

It was a little too crowded for my liking and the show was lackluster. Overall a bit to touristy for my liking. My daughter did not feel good the entire trip. They do offer you ginger candy if you are nauseous.
The food was really good, as were the cocktails and the views were amazing.
I also loved the professional photographer and we did purchase a beautiful family picture.
So overall mixed reviews.

This was a very organized snorkeling trip. Only 5 captains are allowed to go to the sandbar. Stunning scenery in the sandbar. Our kids played volleyball and we drank beer! We got back on the boat and ate a delicious lunch of hamburgers. Then headed out to snorkel. On the way we saw several sea turtles. The snorkeling was along a coral reef and we saw many cool fish and another turtle. One of the workers took my 12 year old out and helped her snorkel. She was sacred to go out. That was very impressive! I would definitely recommend this company! Everyone had a great time!!

I had a great time on the boat with juice and snacks. Although there were no sea turtles, I enjoyed looking at the islands from the boat and taking photos, which is a unique way to spend time on a boat. Due to my mistake, I only had a $20 bill on me, so for reference, I recommend bringing a few $1 bills for tips if you're going.
ジュースとスナックありで楽しく船の時間を満喫。海亀やらは居なかったけれど船から島を眺めたり写真を撮ってもらったりと船ならではの過ごし方が出来ます。私の失敗で手持ちまさかの20ドル紙幣の持ち合わせしかなく、、参考のため、行く方はチップ代として1ドル紙幣を何枚か持っていく事をオススメします。

We had a really great time. From our bus host to the main event. Cousin Tao was our bus host and she made the 45 minute bus ride fly by. She educated us on the culture the tattoos and made us laugh. She talked about pearl harbour, the climate of the island, as well as some of her native language.
We enjoyed the food. The pork was flavorful, chicken was good. Like anyone, I stayed away from what I knew I wouldn't like. Drinks were ok, but we aren't big drinkers to begin with. The main show amazing. Chief was very entertaining. The dancers were authentic. They tell a story and explain each islands culture, while entertaining you. The finale was great with multiple fire knife world champions. I highly recommend this luau! Yeah it's not on the beach, but so what! I learned about the culture, and had great food.
Also at the end of the night we ended up with two drunk strays. Cousin Tao, even though she didn't have to. She could've just said sorry you aren't on the roster and made them get off the bus. She
Called her boss, asked him to come back to bring them back to Waikiki. I thought that was super nice of her. If you want a genuine luau experience go to Chiefs luau.

Our arranged bus was 20 min late, but part of the blame was a nearby hit and run (so traffic staggered around the police and paramedics). This caused us to miss most of the pre-show. Can't really fault anyone for that - just wished we had experienced it.
They no longer separate parties by table, so no more actual COVID separation (on paper/signs, they ask people to wear masks when away from their tables, but hardly anyone did so and no one enforced it).
Food was great. Buffet style, both sides of 2 rows of tables. Pick what you want, go back as much as you want. Lines were quick.
Performance was awesome. I wasn't aware that they had world champion fire dancers in the troupe. I personally loved the stories and explanations of each dance.

My partner and I absolutely loved their sunset cruise! Their entire crew was extremely knowledgeable, personable, and fun. The day we boarded was just myself, my partner and another family of four, which made it a very relaxing and peaceful day experience. The music, food, and history was something we will never forget. Even though the water was calm that day, don’t forget dramamine if you get easily sea sick like myself! I felt so bad for probably looking so uncomfortable, because it’s absolutely a once in a lifetime experience! We are so grateful for the chance to have been on board with them.
