The lei greeting was a nice suprise for my friend. The lei was fresh orchids and it was beautiful.The lady who gave us the lei was not dressed Hawai'ian, and she put the lei around the neck. Latter we were stopped on the street and a local resident moved the lei's so they rested on our shoulder(this is the way it should be and the way it looks nice). I would like to have the presenter of the lei dressed at least in colorful Hawai'ian cloths and the lei put on us the right way. The lady was non-the-less very helpful and did guide us to the front of the airport where the limo was to pick us up. Thank you "Hawaii Activities".

My husband and I went to Hawaii to celebrate our 25th anniversary. We truly enjoyed the food and entertainment. I would suggest this activity to everyone.. My only comment is that we were not recognized as the others were for celebrating a special event.

This was the best tour of the whole trip. It was probably made that way by the tour guide that we had. Garfield was our guide and he was very informative and well liked. We learned more on this tour even though we had lived on the island before.

I totally recommend this lei greeting for first-timers to Hawaii if you are not being met by anyone. Your first visit and the spirit of Aloha begins with the lei greeting. Hawaii begins and continues with Aloha and love, even after your trip is over.

We found the experience a total refreshment. From the loading on the ship to the disembarking, the personal attention to our needs was delightful. We found the food to be excellent. The only down side we found was their taste in music, but to each his/her own.
We found the Vow Renewal part not as exciting as anticipated but well worth the expense.

I decided to take a trip to hawaii and include this lovely romantic cruise ship for my boyfriend's 30th birthday.If was very intimate and romantic. We absolutely loved the experience and the staff. Kalani and Joe were such a joy. I would strongly recommend the 5 star honolulu dinner cruise to any couple celebrating a special or intimate event.

We had a great time on this tour. We saw a little bit of everything. Rongo, our guide, was so much fun, and so knowledgable. He had so much personal knowledge of the island we often felt like we were somehow being driven around by an old friend who wanted to 'show us around'. Rongo was just a great, great guide. We had fun. We had time to take pictures anywhere we stopped, never felt rushed or hurried. Loved everything we saw and felt like we got a very complete 'view' of the island as well as it's history and all of the things that made 'Oahu'....Oahu. We took this tour our second day in Oahu in case we stumbled across something we would want to spend more time investigating later. We're glad we did. Rongo was also willing to give us tips on great places to eat, or grab a drink. We really had fun!

At 4:00 PM, a bus will pick us up at the hotel. Once we get on... it's all Westerners. Everything is in English. The guide is desperately trying to lift the mood with jokes and gestures, making an effort to help everyone get to know each other. Since travel time is limited, and no one wants to waste it, I’ll be clear: if you don’t understand English, the jokes and conversations with your neighbors on the bus might feel dull, and you could feel uncomfortable until the end. Once we arrive, we’ll be ushered inside, where various events await. You don’t need to understand English to participate in those.
For meals, you’ll be sharing a table with people you don’t know, so English conversation will be necessary. Most attendees are from the mainland, so I think English is essential. This experience is suited for those who see chatting with neighbors as part of the fun. The dance and performances are wonderful, and if you’re brave enough, you can even go up on stage. There’s also a couple's dance time. If you’re someone who wants to enjoy without hesitation, you can have fun even if you don’t understand the language. On the return bus, the guide shares entertaining stories, so you won’t be able to sleep. (laughs) Casual attire is fine. I participated with my family, and we were the only Japanese among about 500 people, and since I was the only one who understood English, I translated everything for my family. They said they had a great time because I interpreted for them. Personally, I found this tour to be extremely enjoyable; this is true entertainment.
16:00にホテルにバスが迎えにきてくれます。
乗り込むと・・・西洋人ばかり。すべて英語です。バスの中でガイドさんが気分を盛り上げようと必死にジョークやジェスチャー、初めてあった人と仲良くなるように気を配ってくれます。旅行の時間は限られていて、無駄にしたくないのは誰もの願なのではっきり言いますが、英語が分からないとジョークもバスの中の隣人との会話もつまらないので、最後まで居心地悪く感じるかも。つくとすぐに中に通され、いろいろなイベントが待っています。それに参加するには英語が分からなくても大丈夫。
食事は知らない方々と席をともにするため、また英会話が必要。本土から来ている方がほとんどですので、英語は必須だと思います。隣人の方とのおしゃべりも楽しみの一つと考えられる方に向いています。ダンスやパフォーマンスは素晴らしく、勇気があればステージに上がることもできます。カップルのダンスタイムもあります。物おじしないでどんどん楽しもうという元気のある方なら言葉が分からなくても楽しめます。帰りのバスもガイドさんが楽しいお話を聞かせてくれ、寝かせてくれません。(笑)ラフな格好でOKです。私は家族と参加しましたが日本人は500人ほどの中でわれわれだけでしたし、英語も私しか分かりませんので、すべて家族に通訳しました。通訳したので家族は楽しかったといっています。私個人的にもこのツアーは非常に楽しく、これぞエンターテイメントだと思いました。

The tour can't be called fun, but i can say "don't miss it". It's very informative, quite solemn (the Arizona portion) and something i think every visitor should take in. It was well organized, good timing, and did everything we hoped it would.

Thi was great. I have no complaints whatsoever! There's lots to do, it's well planned, our tour bus leader and driver were well informed, fantastic entertainers, and multi talented. The food was delicious, we did some arts and crafts type things that were fun for everyone and we learned some things about the culture of Hawaii in the most intresting way possible. We were well entertained, and i could not have asked for more! I wouldn't bother to upgrade unless you do the top level ( much better seating)
