All Reviews for Honolulu Nightlife & Things to Do

I was a bit troubled because there was no one who could speak Japanese, and I wasn't sure where the reception was or if I should just wait here. There were no other Japanese participants either.
However, once we set sail on the boat, the breeze was very pleasant and it was amazing.
I recommend departing in the evening; I think the sunlight is too harsh during the day.
Beer and soft drinks are all-you-can-drink. Japanese is not understood.

日本語が話せる人がいなくて受付もどこにあるのかここで待ってればいいのかちょっと困りました。参加者も日本人があおませんでした。
でも実際に船で海に出発するととても風が気持ちよくて最高でした。
夕方出発がオススメです。お昼は日差しがキツすぎると思います。
ビールもソフトドリンクも飲み放題です。日本語は通じません。。

It was a trip with my daughter, and this was my first trip to Hawaii.

Since I don't know if I'll have another opportunity, I wanted to make sure I had no regrets, so I researched several "Hawaiian dance shows" and decided on this one.

The seats I chose were premium seats, which are naturally more expensive than general seating, but the location of the show and the dining arrangements were always prioritized, allowing me to gain satisfaction beyond the price.

The dance performances were enjoyable, with the professional dancers showcasing beautiful and refined techniques.

The host's skillful storytelling and ability to energize the atmosphere made the experience fun. The nearly three-hour show was entertaining and never boring.

On the way back, I had a memorable two-shot photo with a beautiful hula dancer. The premium seats are about 4,000 to 5,000 yen more than general seats, but considering the location and the privileged service, I highly recommend the premium seats.

If you're looking for an unforgettable experience, I definitely recommend the premium seats. Enjoy!

娘との旅行でしたが、今回が私にとって初のハワイ旅行です。

これから機会があるかどうかはわかりませんので、せいぜい悔いのないようにしたいと見たい「ハワイのダンスショー」もいくつか案内と内容を調べ、このショーに決めました。

選択したシートはプレミアシートで一般よりは当然高いのですが、
ショーを観劇する場所といい、食事の案内といい常に優先されて、
価格以上の満足感を得ることができました。

ショーのダンスも楽しく、プロの踊りはきれいで美しく
そして鍛えられた技を見せてくれます。

司会者の巧みな話術や盛り上げ方など楽しく場面を盛り上げてくれます。
３時間近くのショーは楽しく決して見あきることはありませんでした。

帰りにはきれいなフラ姿のお嬢さんとツーショット撮影も記念になりました。
プレミアシートの席は一般席より４~５千円ぐらい高いのでしょうが、
席の場所、優遇されたサービスを考えればお勧めのプレミアムシートです。

これから、感激されるならプレミアムシートをぜひお勧めします。
楽しんでください。

I participated for the first time in Hawaii. The ship was bigger than I expected. Well, it was quite crowded. I was able to enjoy the sunset slowly. At times, it rocked quite a bit, and I thought I might get seasick if it lasted too long. The view from the sea, including Diamond Head, was wonderful.

初めてのハワイで参加しました。
思っていたより船も大きかったです。まぁ、ぎゅうぎゅうに乗ってましたけど。
ゆっくりサンセットも拝むことが出来ました。
時々、かなり揺れて、長時間だと酔ってしまうかなっと思いました。
沖からの景色、ダイヤモンドヘッドなど、素晴らしかったです。

Dinner and show was great. Boat is too crowded: too many people. Employees really worked hard and did a great job. Show was very entertaining and the dancers were fun. All in all a good experience.

Good cruise but was disappointed that it stated Fireworks and they brought us back to land to watch it and not on the catamaran where we would have gotten a great view. Don't advertise fireworks and then don't deliver. We could have paid the lesser price and got the same thing. Just sayin!!

The entire family participated. The event was conducted entirely in English, and I thought that those who didn't understand English might not grasp the meaning very well. Still, we were able to have a reasonably enjoyable time. Since similar shows are held in various places, I think it would be good to compare them. If asked whether I would come here again, I think I would look for a different place. I thought the levels of Tahitian dance and hula dance were quite high. Regarding the seating, the premium option is good because it is close to the stage and allows you to go to the buffet first. Since the seats are not assigned, if you want a good spot, I recommend arriving a bit early to line up rather than just before the show starts. They offer body painting before the show, which was popular among children and women.

一族総出で参加しました。終始英語で司会進行され、英語が分からない人には意味がよくわからないのではないかと思いました。それでもそれなりに楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。さまざまな場所で同じようなショーが行われているので、見比べてみるのも良いかと思います。次回ここに来るかと聞かれたら、私はまた違うところを探すと思います。タヒチアンダンス、フラダンスともにレベルは高いのでないかと思いました。シートについてはプレミアだと舞台近くであることと、ビュッフェを先に取に行ける点が良いですね。座席は指定席ではないので、良い位置でみたいのならば開始直前に行かれるのではなく、ちょっと早めに行って並ぶ方が良いと思います。
ショー開始前にボディーペイントを行っています。子供・女性に人気でした。

This is a great option for those that get sea sick! The boat was very smooth! Brandon our waiter was fantastic, and was a good laugh. Would recommend and go again

It was quite fun to be out at sea and feel the speed while sailing with the wind. I was able to see Diamond Head from offshore.

沖合に出てから風で走っているときのスピードが結構速く楽しかった。ダイヤモンドヘッドを沖合から見る事が出来た。

I board the cruise every time to enjoy the last sunset in Hawaii.

Usually, the calm waters of Waikiki are a delight, but this time the waves and wind were unusually strong, causing the boat to sway a bit. However, it was still an enjoyable cruise.

There were many people surfing off Waikiki, riding the big waves that reminded me of the North Shore. I also had plenty of Mai Tais.

The sunset was more beautiful than usual, and I was able to see various rays of sunlight. Although it wasn't a green flash, it was stunning enough to be etched in my memory.

Every time, I whisper to myself that I will come back to see it again, and I enjoyed the last sunset in Hawaii. The cruise staff was wonderful too! I will definitely use this service again.

毎回、ハワイ最後のサンセットを楽しむために、乗船します。
いつもは穏やかなワイキキの海が、珍しく波が強く風も強く、やや船は揺れましたが、それはそれで楽しいクルーズでした。
ワイキキ沖でサーフィンを楽しむ人たちが多く、ノースを思わせるような大きな波に楽しそうに乗っていました。
マイタイもまたまた、たくさんいただきました。
サンセットも、いつも以上にきれいに見え、太陽の様々な光を見ることができました。グリーンフラッシュとはいかずとも、目に焼き付くような美しさでした。
毎回、また見に来るね~と、心でつぶやいてハワイ最後のサンセットを楽しみました。
クルーズスタッフも素敵でした！！
また、必ず利用します。

We were the only Japanese people. When we arrived at the location, the small boat was completely different from what I had imagined. And there was a restaurant that looked like a ruin right next to it. At first, I felt really anxious. Is this okay? Is this the right place? But after completing the procedures, it seemed to be correct. Despite my worries, we started!!

The boat allowed us to feel the waves and wind, which was really pleasant! Since there were no other Japanese people, it really felt like we were overseas! It was a fun experience that you definitely can't have on a two or three-story boat. It was like an adventure! We were also able to see the fireworks clearly, which made me very satisfied. It was an incredibly casual night cruise with a great sense of openness. I'm very satisfied!

日本人は私たちのみ。現地に到着するとイメージしていた船とは全く異なる小さな船が。そして廃墟のようなレストランがすぐそばに。最初とっっっても不安になりました。これは、大丈夫か？と。合ってるの？
と。でも手続きをしたら合っている模様。不安になりながらもスタート！！
波と風を感じられる船でとっても気持ちが良い！日本人がいないので海外にきてるなー！という感じ。二階建てや三階建ての船では絶対に体験できない楽しさ。まるでadventure！花火もしっかりと見ることができ大満足。開放感抜群のカジュアルすぎるナイトクルーズ。満足です！

We participated with a 2-year-old, a 5-year-old, mom, and grandma. The 2-year-old also enjoyed free drinks. They adjusted the alcohol for us, and we had delicious cocktails. The show was fun too. However, since it was cold, I recommend bringing warm clothing!

2歳児、5歳児、ママ、おばあちゃんで参加しました。
2歳児にもフリーでドリンクをいただきました。
アルコールも調整してくれて、美味しいカクテルをいただきました。
ショーも楽しかったです。
ただ、寒いので、防寒着を持って行かれることをオススメします！

For some reason, we were checked for ID, and since we didn't have our passports, we couldn't drink alcohol. It completely defeats the purpose of participating in a cocktail cruise if we can't drink. Moreover, the other participants weren't checked for ID, and it seems to depend on the crew's discretion, which is just unacceptable!

なぜかIDチェックをされて、パスポートを持っていなかった私たちはアルコール類を飲む事が出来ませんでした。カクテルクルーズなのに飲めないのでは参加した意味が全くありません。
また、周りの参加者にはIDチェックはしておらず、船員のさじ加減次第で決められてしまうなんてあり得ない！！

The activity is about an hour and being such a wide vessel motion sickness is not an issue. The shoreline was amazing and the fireworks were nice. It is petty much what you'd expect being on a catamaran.

This time, I attended a dinner show for the first time in Waikiki.

It was a standard plan, but I was able to enjoy the dance performances and the food was reasonably delicious.

However, the time between receiving the welcome drink and going to the buffet was too long, which was quite exhausting.

Depending on the seating order, some guests were served a bit earlier, but it would have been better if they could have accommodated us sooner.

Since I had an alcoholic welcome drink, I ended up getting tipsy before going to get the food.

The show itself was very satisfying.

今回ディナーショーはワイキキで初めて行きました。

スタンダードのプランでしたが、
十分にダンスを知覚で見れて料理もそれなりに美味しくいただきました。

ただ、ウェルカムドリンクがきてから、ビュッフェをとりにいくまでの時間が長過ぎてしんどかったです。

席の順番によってはやや早い方もいましたが、もっと早めにたいおうしてもらえると良かったです。

アルコールいりのウェルカムドリンクをいただいたので、料理をとりにいくまでに酔っ払いました。。

ショー自体はとても満足のいくものでした。

The dinner was amazing, the filet was cooked perfectly and the crab legs kept on coming. We got a complimentary mai tai that was actually a very good drink (not that pre-mixed yucky stuff) and also ordered the $40 bottle of champagne. When dinner was finished, they put on a Polynesian show within the cabin that was loads of fun. Unfortunately the sunset was blocked by cloud cover but the show made up for it. The waitress was fantastic and the room supervisor was very attentive. Would definitely do this again! An additional note: they took the usual souvenir photo and charged $27 which we thought was way over the top...but it was framed beautifully (book-bound style) and ended up being the best photo of our entire honeymoon!! Worth every penny!

I went with my girlfriend. I was expecting a large ship for the cruise, but I was surprised it was smaller. However, this small size actually made it easier to communicate with the foreign guests around us. We had an amazing time! The Mai Tais on the boat were delicious, and I had about five of them. Of course, the sunset was beautiful, and seeing the rainbow near Diamond Head was very soothing. Initially, I was worried about the weather, but it held up, and we were able to end our last day in Hawaii on a high note! I highly recommend it! 😊

彼女と行きました。クルーズということで、大きい船を予想していましたが、小さめでびっくり。
でもこの小ささが、周りの外国の方とのコミュニケーションが弾む結果に。めちゃくちゃ楽しかったです！船で飲むマイタイはおいしく、5杯くらい頂きました。
もちろんサンセットも綺麗で、ダイヤモンドヘッド近くにできた虹を見て、とても癒されました。
当初天気が心配されましたが、なんとか持ち堪えてくれて、ハワイ最終日を最高な気分で終えることができました！！
オススメです(^ ^)

We participated as a couple. This sunset cruise offers unlimited drinks, and they serve Mai Tais as cocktails. The boat initially uses the engine to head out to sea, but once we are offshore, it sails solely with the sails. Since it was dusk, we enjoyed a very cool breeze, which was refreshing. I felt so good that I ended up drinking several Mai Tais. We were able to see the sunset clearly, and it was an unforgettable cruise experience.

夫婦で参加しました。このサンセットクルーズでは飲み物が飲み放題。カクテルはマイタイを出してくれます。船は最初エンジンを使って沖に出ていきますが、沖に出た後は、帆だけで海原を疾走します。夕暮れ時なので、大変涼しい風にあたれ、気分が爽快になります。私はあまりの気分の良さにマイタイを何杯も飲んでしまいました。
日が沈むところもしっかりと見え、これ以上ないクルーズが楽しめました。

Participated on the first day in Honolulu. It's perfect for feeling the essence of Hawaii.

Viewing Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the sea while enjoying a Mai Tai with the waves and wind is the best. I put my sandals and bag in the boat's storage box and boarded barefoot.

The front of the boat has a net, and the splashes of water are quite thrilling and enjoyable. You can move freely between seats, and it's also free to stand and feel the wind. Surrounded by foreigners, you really feel like you've come to Hawaii. This is definitely one of the activities I want to repeat next time.

ホノルル初日に参加。ハワイを感じるのに最適です。
ワイキキビーチ、ダイヤモンドヘッドを海から眺め、波と風を感じながらマイタイって最高です。サンダルとバッグは船の収納ボックスに入れ、裸足で乗り込みます。
船の前方はネットが張ってあり、水しぶきがけっこう迫力があり楽しめます。席は自由に移動でき、立って風を感じるのも自由。周りは外人さんばかりでハワイに来たーと実感できます。次回もリピートしたいアクティビティのひとつです。

This was our first booked activity and it was amazing. Our captain was the best and the sunset was gorgeous. A relaxing, fun, and beautiful sail at sunset. The perfect introduction to Hawaii.

So happy I selected this cruise! Our flight was delayed getting to Oahu on our scheduled sail day and Island Magic was able to accomodate us by rescheduling us for the next day! On first meeting, crew was friendly and professional! The drinks flowed as promised and Chris, the drink captain was attentive and entertaining!
I only wished they served some vodka on board! But I was ok with the white wine served! Beautiful sunset, great views, awesome time!! Hope to have time to do it again before we leave!!

We had a great time with the whole family after the ceremony! We were able to go up on stage and participate together, and I got to dance with my husband. It became the best memory!

挙式後に家族みんなで利用して楽しい時間を過ごせました!!ステージに上がって一緒に参加できたし、旦那さんとダンスできたし、最高の思い出になりました！

It was my first time in Hawaii, so I wanted to see something like a traditional dance, and after searching around, I chose this one as it seemed convenient. We went in mid-September, just the two of us.

- Food…★★★ It was a buffet style, but we could only go once to get food before the show started, and getting a second helping was nearly impossible (the plates were cleared away quickly). However, the plates were larger compared to Japan, so it wasn't a problem in the end. There was a separate kids' buffet available. The taste was decent.
- Drinks…★★ The ticket included two drink vouchers; one was for a welcome drink (you could choose between juice or one of two cocktails), and the other was for after the meal (you could choose from several cocktails, wine, beer, or soft drinks). The welcome drink was almost forced upon us. The free water was gone by the time we had our meal, so I wished they had included another drink voucher.
- Show content…★★★★ The final fire dance was very impressive. Various traditional dances from places other than Hawaii were also showcased. Each had slightly different costumes, which was quite interesting.

It's not a full-fledged luau with a whole roasted pig, but I think it's good for those who want to see traditional dances in a convenient way. By the way, surprisingly (?), about 30% of the audience was Japanese, with many Westerners present.

初ハワイだったので、一度は伝統舞踊のようなものを見てみたいと思い、色々探してお手軽そうなこれにしました。行ったのは9月中旬、夫と2人です。

・料理…★★★　ビュッフェ形式ですが、ショー開始前に一度取りに行けただけでお代わりはほぼ無理です（お皿が早々に片づけられてしまいました）。ただし、お皿が日本と比べて大きかったので結果問題なし。キッズ用ビュッフェが別に用意されていました。味はまずまずです。
・飲み物…★★　チケットにドリンク券が2枚ついていて、1枚はウェルカムドリンク（ジュースorカクテルの2種から選択）、もう1枚は食後（数種のカクテルかワイン、ビール、ソフトドリンクから選択）に使いました。ウェルカムドリンクはほぼ強制的に回ってきます。無料の水は、食事の時にはなくなっていたので、もう1枚ドリンク券つけてほしかったと思いました。
・ショーの内容…★★★★　最後のファイヤーダンスが大迫力。ほかはハワイ以外にも様々な伝統舞踊が披露されました。それぞれ衣装も少しずつ異なり、なかなか興味深かったです。

豚丸焼きが出るような本格的なルアウではありませんが、伝統舞踊をお手軽に見たい方にはよいかと思います。ちなみに、日本人は意外に（？）全体の3割くらいで、欧米人が多かったです。

Food ia not that good!! The dinner tables are not that gate

A fun relaxing evening to put it simply. First there's the no hassle boarding right off the beach as the catamaran comes right up onto the beach. There may be a line but boarding is quick with lots of room for everyone once on board. You get underway very quickly, a brief safety talk, and then your motoring out past the waves to station yourself for the fireworks show. Drinks are as free flowing as you want distributed by the crew of one in a very efficient manner. The fireworks show looking back at the beach is pretty good - how can it not be- your on a boat in the Pacific, looking at skyline of Waikeke and it's 82 degrees!!! After the fireworks the captain raises the sails and you cruise along the coast. BUT - the best part of the trip is talking with the other passengers- my family met a group from New Zealand and we spent the time talking about differences between the two cultures as similiar as they may be to each other. We have 17 year old twins (boy & girl) and they also had lots of fun !! The price was a very good value, the time at sea was about right- Highly recommended!!

I had only been on large ships in Hawaii until now, so the catamaran, which allowed me to feel the ocean up close, was absolutely fantastic. My children also had a great time and were very happy. It was interesting to see surfers riding the waves up close. The crew was friendly as well. However, the boat does sway quite a bit due to the wind, so your clothes may get wet, and I wouldn't recommend it for those who are prone to seasickness.

いままでハワイで大型船にしか乗ったことがなかったので海を一番身近に感じられるカタマランは最高に楽しかったです。子供もとても楽しかったと喜んでいました。サーファーの波乗りもかなり近くでみることができ面白いです。クルーもフレンドリーです。ただし、船は風によってかなり揺れますので、お洋服は濡れますし、船酔いをする方にはあまりお勧めできません。

The Island Magic is the perfect name for the perfect Sunset Catamaran Cocktail Sail we had. The crew, drinks, and MUSIC was great. The sunset was spectacular but the bonus was the full moon over Diamond Head. It was an amazing night. Mahalo for the wonderful memories.

It was sunset time. The captain was very friendly, and it was a lot of fun. The sunset viewed from the beach is beautiful, but the sunset seen over the vast ocean is also wonderful. It was worth more than the price. This was my first catamaran experience in Hawaii, despite it being my sixth visit.

サンセットの時間帯でした。船長もとても気さくな方でとても楽しかったです。そして浜辺で観る夕陽も綺麗ですが、大海原で眺める夕陽も素敵です。価格以上の満足度でした。ハワイは６回目にして始めてのカタマラン体験でした。

The crew was amazing. The fireworks were awesome!! It started out with a booking that was fast and informative. We then started out on the water. Smooth sailing, and the captain was very friendly and personable. They said that the maitais were the best on the island. They weren't kidding!! Overall very well done! A must do, must see, must experience!

I went to see it on the last night of my trip. At first, I felt very lonely being there alone, but I was able to enjoy my meal with the people at my table. The show was amazing, and if you're going to Hawaii, it's definitely something you should experience!

今回は、最終日の夜に見に行きました。はじめは1人でとても心細かったですが、同じテーブルになった人達と楽しみながら食事が出来ました。
ショーもすごくて、ハワイへ行ったならぜひ行くべきです！

I have participated in the daytime cruise twice before and had a great time, so this time I tried the sunset cruise. We were blessed with good weather, and the sunset was incredibly beautiful. The experience is completely different from viewing it from the ground. Previously, most participants were foreigners, but this time there were many Japanese people. They were a bit quieter, but we were able to take photos and enjoy ourselves casually. This makes it three consecutive years. I will definitely participate again next time.

今まで2回、昼のクルーズに参加して楽しかったので、今回はサンセットクルーズにトライしました。天気に恵まれ、サンセットは最高に綺麗でした。地上から見るのとは全然違う感動があります。参加者は今までは外国人ばかりでしたが、今回は日本人が多数でした。大人しめでしたが、写真を撮りあったり気楽に過ごせました。これで、3年連続。次も必ず参加します。
