All Reviews for Private Daytime Boat Charters

Much to enjoy, too little time. Staff and musicians capped off the entire experience.

These folks are awesome! They made every second fun and were very safe with everything they did. We had our 1 year old son with us who does great adventuring. They made sure it was east for us and that we all had a good time. They were also so careful to protect the coral and wildlife at the sandbar.

Everything was amazing everyone made the best out of it even though it was raining.

This tour was amazing and one of the best I’ve been on. The entire staff was very attentive and happy. I will definitely be back.

Perfect experience. All the crew members were very active and supportive. Live event added lots of fun and excitement. I would prefer if time would be more. 2 hrs flies like anything. Crew member helped me in doing snorkeling and all the time juices and donuts were available.

Mile long sandbar with live music on baot, snorkling, paddle board etv is one of the kind experience. Thanks the crews and team

It is beyond awesome! Had a lot of options like banana boat( extra $), kayak, paddle board, snorkel, floating lounge. The crews are the best! They are welcoming, friendly and extremely helpful!

My back went out on Sunday 21 Nov 21, so on Monday 22 Nov 21 at approximately1145 I called the number provided on the Veltra voucher, KBOS. I requested cancellation of one of the six participants stating I could barely stand much less enjoy what we had signed up for. The lady that answered the phone at KBOS stated she would have to check with someone, KBOS required a 72 hour prior cancellation notification, and since our date was 25 Nov 21 with a 0750 pick up time, it was too late to cancel one participant. I received both a voice mail and email within two hours stating I was too late to cancel one participant again because I was within the 72 hour cancellation window. However, my Veltra voucher states I can cancel “Any cancellations made after 18:00 local time 2 business days prior to the activity will be subject to a charge of 100% of the total amount.” When I read that part of the voucher to the KBOS lady, she said she would contact Veltra; she did not call back, and it was either go or lose the fee. I went and had trouble getting on the boat due to the steep ramp and no hand rail (staff did assist or I cold not have gotten on). The only food available was donuts, tang orange drink, and water (not the list that is stated in the voucher). I paid for two donut and four banana rides, no donut was available, a speed boat ride was the substitute however. I sat on the boat the entire time since the ladder into the water was too difficult with the sore back. KBOS was fine, the misinformation was included in the Veltra voucher, and Veltra did nothing to follow up with their misinformation.

Best excursion on the Island. The staff was fantastic and accommodating from start to finish. Highly recommend and plan on going again when we return next year !!! Tha price and length of the excursion was better than the other operators to the sand bar.. Mahalo for a great time !!

Our family had an amazing time! We enjoyed the band and meal. The crew was awesome and the sandbar was absolute beauty!

We came for our anniversary and the experience was amazing!! The crew is so dope and truly and laid back group of people it feels like you are with family. The music was great and the activities were really nice. They have all of the equipment there for you to participate in the activities so you will need to bring the other things like towels, byob, and sunscreen. Go with these people for your snorkeling experience you won’t regret!! Thank you KBOS we had a blast!! Mahalo!!

It was such a fun and relaxing day trip. Worth it! Good experience! The only con thing is that it’s stated on the website that soft drinks, juice, bread, pastries and continental breakfast are included with all the water activities BUT….BIG BUT they didn’t have and never had any of those except DONUTS, water and punch! I showed them what’s written on the tour site and the booking confirmation and they said that’s weird I was not the first who said this, they gotta talk to the agent. So come prepare your own drinks and snacks.

This was our first time visiting the sandbar and it was so much fun because of the crew of KBOS! Our day was overcast, but we still had an amazing experience. They have a large selection of water toys. We did the paddle boards, clear canoe & snorkeled over the coral. But you can also kayak or get a ride on a banana boat. They also set up a volleyball net. They pull a large platform barge with seating so you can rest or just enjoy sunbathing. The catamaran is shaded & spacious with plenty of tables for seating. There are bathrooms & changing rooms on board. They fed us a turkey/ham sandwich on a croissant with chips & pineapple and they provide water & punch anytime you need it. I felt like we could bring our entire family including all ages from grandparents to small kids. There is something for everyone. We saw a massive turtle & a sting ray. Even though our day was cloudy the crew still made it a blast! They were fun to hang out with & the live band was AMAZING! I usually don’t redo excursions that I’ve already done, but I would definitely book this tour every time I visit Oahu!

The crew was very helpful and made our experience a memorable one. We had a great time snorkeling, canoeing, and tubing. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun day out in the water.

The tour was awesome. Too much fun. The crew and band were amazing. We will definitely join this tour again to kaneohe and other tours around the islands that they may have. Captain Sandy was super nice. The banana boat was fun.

We chartered this catamaran for my sister’s bachelorette party. We had an amazing time. The crew was awesome and kept the celebration hype. Next time I’m in the area, I will definitely charter this boat again!

The Royal Hawaiian Catamaran boat charter is now my absolute favorite activity on Oahu. This charter will satisfy so many different goals for island experience - sailing, snorkeling, swimming, relaxing in the shade, and learning about Hawaii. One thing that sets this tour above others is their commitment to the reef and water. They don't overcrowd the boat and there is no plastic used onboard. I really appreciated the balance between hosting tourists and stewarding their natural resources. Captain Shane, Cassidy and Gio went above and beyond to make our experience one to be remembered forever. They listened to us and provided excellent options to allow us to make the most of our charter. I liked it so much that I booked my second trip for later in the year already.

The staff was amazing, personable and hilarious! Overall we saw 2 babies and 2 adults but they were at a distance.
If you are looking for up close this is not the cruise but this is very family friendly and a relaxing sail with great views of Honolulu .

The whole trip was wonderful! We saw 2 sets of whales baby and mamma! The staff was so nice and professional ❤️

This is a great cruise. The boat was spotless and the Captain and crew were awesome. They were very interactive and made sure they took care of us in the drink and snack area. They were very knowledgeable and fun to interact with. We were able to see quite a few whales which was so fun. Booking was easy as well as check in.

コロナ前ですが、クジラを遠くに見ながらジェットフォイル船でお酒を飲んで楽しかったです。60over二人を連れてても全然問題なかったです。また行けるといいなー。

We participated as a family, but the sea was rough, and seasickness peaked, plus we were disappointed that the whales didn't show up. The kids enjoyed the scenery from the boat.

家族で参加をしましたが、海も荒れていて船酔いがピークな上、クジラも姿を現さずに残念でした。子供は船から景色を楽しんでいました

I participated in whale watching. I was able to see 4 or 5 whales spouting in the distance. I was thrilled to see the whales, but it was also great to be on a boat with many native speakers, which added to the atmosphere.

ホエールウォッチングに参加しました。遠くのかなたで潮を吹いているクジラを4、5頭見られました。くじらを見たことも感激しましたが、ネイティブの方が多く乗っている船で、その雰囲気がよかったです。

Unfortunately, I couldn't see them, but I was happy to meet a pod of dolphins. The guide was really nice and would let us know as soon as he spotted something!

The boat was comfortable, pleasant, and fun!

残念ながら見れませんでしたが、イルカの群れに会えてうれしかったです。
ガイドさんは何か見えるとすぐ教えてくれたり、すごくいい人でした！

船も快適で、気持ちよく、楽しかったです！

I was able to see whales.

It all depends on the whales and luck, but I was able to see them jumping in the distance and swimming nearby.

If I have the opportunity, I would like to participate again.

クジラを見ることができました。

全てはクジラ次第で時の運ですが、遠くでジャンプ姿、近くで泳ぐ姿を確認でした。

機会があればまた参加したいです。

I was wondering if I wouldn't be able to see it until halfway through, but I was able to watch it towards the end. I'm glad I could see it because they searched for it until the very last minute. I can hardly speak any English, but the staff were kind, and I had a great time.

途中まで見れないかな？と思ったのですが、最後の方に見ることができました。時間ギリギリまで、探してくれたため、見ることができてよかったです。英語がほとんど話せないのですが、スタッフは優しく、楽しめました。

I had very little experience with boarding a ship, but there were staff members who spoke Japanese, and the other staff were also kind, which made me feel very at ease. There was a wide variety of alcoholic beverages and soft drinks, which was enjoyable. Although the chances of seeing a whale were low, they searched diligently, and I was able to see its tail. I also got to see dolphins up close for a long time, which I didn't think would be possible. It was a very enjoyable plan.

船に乗る経験もほとんどありませんでしたが、日本語を話せるスタッフがいたり、他のスタッフも親切でとても安心して過ごせました。
アルコール類やソフトドリンクも豊富で楽しかったです。
鯨も確率は低いそうですか、熱心に探してくれ、尻尾を見ることができました。また、見れないと思っていたイルカを近くで長時間見れました。
とても楽しいプランでした。

There was a pre-boarding explanation by the Japanese staff, and although it was an English tour, there were no inconveniences at all. We even encountered whales, and the beer on the comfortable boat was fantastic!

日本語スタッフによる乗船前説明もあり、英語ツアーですが、何の不便もありません。クジラにも遭遇でき、心地よい船上でのビールも最高でした！

I was able to see the whale's spout, but unfortunately, I couldn't see the whale itself, which was disappointing. The crew said that we were lucky to have encountered a whale, but honestly, I think it would be impossible to see one without a lot of luck. However, the staff were kind, which was nice.

クジラの潮吹きは見えたのですが姿を見る事はできなく残念な結果に…。
クルーの方達はあなた達はクジラに会えてラッキーと言ってましたが正直かなりの運の良さが無ければ姿を見るのは無理だと思います。
ただスタッフの方々は親切で良かったです。

I was really looking forward to it, as the brochures and TV commercials promised that we would see whales right in front of us... But when I strained my eyes, it was just barely visible from a distance. It didn't show up in the photos. Even when we spotted them far away, we didn't get any closer... and that was the end of it.

The staff were kind, but... while there may have been whales, considering the price, I was a bit disappointed.

パンフレットもテレビのコマーシャルも鯨が目の前で見られる様なものばかりですごーく楽しみにしていましたが…
目を凝らしてやっと…くらいの遠さ。
写真にはうつりませんでした。
遠くに見つけても近づいて行く事は無く…終了。

スタッフの方は親切でしたが…
確かに鯨は居たかもしれませんが…
お値段を考えるとちょっとガッカリでした。
