All Reviews for Social Cruises & Activities

The show is held on the rooftop, so it was cool, and at first, the sunset was dazzling, making sunglasses a must. I didn't want to wait in line, so I went early and got a seat in the front row on the side. It was a great view, and it was the best seat for taking photos. If you're going to watch, it's better to be up front. The audience was mixed with people from various countries, which was nice in a way. There seemed to be many people from the United States, but since there were attendees from different countries, if you can strike up a conversation, you might enjoy yourself before the show starts.

The food was decent, within acceptable limits, but if you don't have a good seat, you might not finish eating before the show begins. The kids were thrilled and very excited. In addition to the hula, there was also a fire show at the end, so I don't think you'll get bored. I think it's something you should see at least once.

ショーは屋上で行われるため、まあ、涼しいのと、最初は夕日が眩しかったので、サングラス必須でした。
並ぶのが嫌だったので、早めにいったところ、席はサイドの最前列。非常によく見れるし、撮影にも最高の席でした。どうせ観るなら前方がいいですよね。観客席は各国の人と相席なので、それはある意味良かったです。アメリカ本国の人が多かったようですが、各国から集まっていたので、会話ができれば、ショーの始まる前は楽しめるかと思います。
食事はまあまあですが、許容範囲で、いい席でないと、ショーの始まる前に食べ終わらないかもしれません。子供も喜んで大興奮でした。フラだけでなく、ファイヤーショーも最後にあり、飽きることはないかと思います。これも一度は観たほうがいいと思います。

I am sensitive to boats, so I took motion sickness medication before boarding, but there was no rocking. The staff took photos and made the experience enjoyable, and it went by in a flash. I really enjoyed the cruise.

船に弱いので、酔い止めの薬を飲んで乗船しましたが、
揺れも無く、スタッフの方々が写真を撮ってくれたり、
盛り上げてくれて楽しくあっという間だったです。
クルーズを満喫させて貰いました。

I attended with my son and his wife. We completed the check-in on the 4th floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center and waited in front of the buffet venue. Until the venue guidance began, we had to wait on the 4th floor at our leisure, so arriving earlier than the designated time doesn't mean you can enter sooner. The buffet was plentiful, featuring a whole roasted pig and roast beef, and it was delicious. After the buffet, we moved to the show venue. Since entry was based on the order of the line, the earlier you lined up, the sooner you could enter. My husband, a fan of Elvis Presley, was looking forward to this show, so we lined up early. The show started with the history of Hawaii and, as the title suggests, was a fusion of hula and rock? There were impersonators who moved around the venue, shaking hands and giving out scarves, creating a lively atmosphere just like a real show. It was fun with hula, impersonators, and fire dancing. After the show, there was also a photo opportunity with the impersonators.

息子夫婦と一緒に参加しました。
ロイヤルハワイアンセンター４Fで受付を済ませブッフェ会場前で待機。
会場案内が始まるまでは思い思いに4Fフロアで待つことになるので、指定時間より早く行っても早く入れるわけではありません。
ブッフェは豚の丸焼きやローストビーフ等充実していて美味しかったです。
ブッフェが終わるとショーの会場へ移動。こちらは並び順なので早く並べば早く会場に入れます。私達はプレスリーファンの夫がこのショーを楽しみにしていたので早めに並びました。
ショーはハワイの歴史から始まり、題名の通りフラとロックの融合？プレスリーは本物のショーのように、そっくりさんが会場を回り握手をしたり、マフラーをプレゼントしたりと会場は大盛り上がりでした。
フラあり、そっくりさんあり、ファイヤーダンスありで楽しかったです。
ショー終了後はそっくりさんとの写真撮影タイムもありました。

We used this for our honeymoon trip.
This was our first time experiencing the cast show.
Although most of the staff and cast members didn't speak much Japanese, the check-in and dining processes went very smoothly, and we had a wonderful time.
The facility was very clean and stylish. Especially in the waiting hall when we entered as VIPs, we were served very cute snacks, which made my wife very happy.
The show itself featured famous impersonations that even people in their 20s like us know, and it was so diverse that we were completely absorbed, with no time to catch our breath.

I definitely want to use this again on our next trip to Hawaii.

新婚旅行にて利用させて頂きました。
今回初めて、キャストショーを利用させて頂きました。
スタッフの方キャストの方殆ど日本語はあまり話せない様でしたが、受付や食事等とてもスムーズに進み大変楽しいひと時を味わえました。
施設内はとても清潔でおしゃれな空間でした。特にVIPで入場した際の待合のホールではとても可愛らしいおつまみを提供して頂き妻も満足しておりました。
ショー自身は20代の私達でも知っている有名な人のものまねショーとなど客席をMAXまで使用したショーなど多彩で息をつく暇も無いほどに見入ってしまうほどでした。

又、次回ハワイへ旅行の際は利用したいと思った一つでした。

Wonderful dinner and show impersonators spot on and interactive with audience fire show was a wow factor dancers and singers wonderful excitement, something that my wife and I would do again.

Amazing experience!! The food, service, setting and ambiance is outstanding. Highly recommend and do the 7 course meal, so worth it!!

I signed up for this tour thinking it would be an easy activity for my first time in Hawaii. I initially thought we would just be sitting on the boat, but after a while, once the captain introduced himself and the crew, we were able to go out on deck and enjoy the view of the ocean.

The narration was in English, and there were newlyweds, families, and solo travelers, but everyone was very friendly and cheerful.

We were able to see dolphins and sea turtles, and my whole family was extremely satisfied, wanting to repeat the experience the next day. I would like to use this service again on another occasion.

初ハワイで何か手軽なアクティビティーをと思い、このツアーに申し込みました。普通に船に座って乗っているだけかと思いきや、船が出てからしばらくして船長さん達の紹介を終えると甲板に出て海を眺めることが出来ました。

進行は英語で、海外の新婚さんや家族連れ、おひとり様の方もいましたが、とても和気藹々としていました。

イルカやウミガメにも会うことができ、家族みんな大満足で翌日またリピートしたいと思うほどでした。
またの機会にも利用したいとおもいます。

We took the sunset cruise and enjoyed the meal and going out and watching the sunset on the Ocean in view of diamond head.

We participated as a family with children. First of all, I was satisfied with the buffet, but I felt the time was too short. Right at the start, the kids were called to participate in games. After that, we danced together and it seemed fun, but we hardly had time to eat. Once we finished our meal, we quickly moved to the show venue, so it would have been nice to enjoy a bit more chatting.

As for the show, the hula was impressive, but one of the women dancing clearly fell behind and made mistakes, and there were some who seemed like amateurs. A few cast members dressed as celebrities appeared, but I only knew their names and couldn't tell if they resembled the actual celebrities. Moreover, the celebrities I recognized hardly sang, and there wasn't much dancing, which was disappointing. There was a woman who sang well, but there were very few songs I knew, which was a bit unfortunate. Some family members even got sleepy during the show. However, we did get to see a fire dance towards the end, which, although the time was quite short, was impressive and fun. Overall, since we were in Hawaii, I chose "a little disappointed" because I really wanted to see the hula properly.

子連れの家族で参加しました。
まず、ブッフェの内容には満足でしたが、時間が短かったと感じました。
開始すぐに子供たちは呼び出され、ゲームに参加しました。
その後、一緒にダンスを踊り、楽しそうでしたが、ほとんど食事はさせられませんでした。
私たちも、一通り食べたらすぐショーの会場に移動となったので、もう少しお喋りしながら楽しめたら良かったです。
ショーに関しては、フラは見ごたえがありましたが、踊っている女性の一人が明らかに遅れをとったり振りを間違えたり、素人のような人が混ざっていました。
有名人に扮したキャストが数名でてきましたが、名前しか知らず、似ているのかどうなのか良く分かりませんでした。また知っている有名人もほぼ歌っておらず、ダンスもあまりなく、がっかりでした。
歌が上手な女性の方がおりましたが、知っている歌が非常に少なく、ちょっと残念でした。
家族にはショーの間に眠くなったものもおりました。
ただ、最後の方にファイヤーダンスが見られて、時間はかなり短かったですが見ごたえがあり楽しかったです。
トータルとしては、やはりせっかくのハワイなので、せめてフラはちゃんと見たかったため「少しがっかり」を選びました。

The catamaran cruise what just what we hoped for! Wonderful time out on the water with friendly service, delicious drinks, incredible views, and nothing to worry about. We would definitely do this again!

I thought it was a live performance featuring impersonators of Elvis and Flasho, but the quality was higher than I expected, and it was a show that people of all generations could enjoy.

フラショーとエルビスのそっくりさんのライブだとは思っていたのですが、思った以上にクオリティが高く、世代を問わず楽しめるショーでした。

My father-in-law and I had an awesome time out on the water. We took the morning tour/sail. The staff was very nice, informative and professional. It was a great way to start any day. The views from the boat were spectacular. I would recommend anyone coming to Waikiki to look them up and take the tour.

The location is very convenient as it is at the Royal Hawaiian Center. Since we had the buffet, when we were seated, they served us pineapple on our plates, and we could choose between alcoholic and non-alcoholic Mai Tais. After the second drink, there is a charge. While the dancers performed and sang, we went up to get our food in turns. Everything was delicious. After the meal, we moved to the venue, but I wasn't sure about the timing, so we went to the venue after finishing our food. We took a photo with a Michael impersonator at the entrance. At the end, we were able to get a signature as well. Well, I don't know who he is, but he might become famous in the future? The show featured impersonators of Elvis and Michael, and it ended with a real fire dance, which was entertaining. For those who chose the course instead of the buffet, there are tables inside the venue where they can eat before the show starts and then watch the show from the same spot. There were also people watching the show with just cocktails. I think the course allows for a more leisurely meal. If you're close to the Royal Hawaiian Center, definitely check it out!

場所がロイヤルハワイアンセンターにあるので、とても行きやすく便利です
私たちはブュッフェだったので、席に通されるとパイナップルをお皿に取り分けてくれて、マイタイのアルコール入りかノンアルコールか選べました
2杯目以降は料金が掛かります
ダンサーの人達がダンスや歌を歌ったりしている中、食べ物は順番に取りに行きます
食べ物はどれも美味しかったです
食事の後は会場に移動しますが、タイミングがよく分からなかったので、ひと通り食べ終わったら会場に移動しました
入口でマイケルのモノマネの人と写真をとりました
これは最後に買うとサインも貰えました
まあ、誰か分からないけど、もしかしたら将来有名な人になるかも？
ショーはエルビスやマイケルのモノマネの人が出て来たり、最後は本格的なファイヤーダンスになるので、面白かったです
ブュッフェじゃなく、コースの人は会場の中にテーブルがあり、始まる前にそのテーブルで食事をして食事の後そのままその場所でショーを見るようになってます
カクテルだけでショーを見てる人もいました
コースはゆっくり食べられると思います
ロイヤルハワイアンセンターから近い人は歩いて行けるのでぜひ行ってみてください

I knew the fireworks would only last for five minutes, but on that day, it was a full moon night, so I was able to see the enchanting moonrise from Diamond Head as well, which was wonderful.

花火は5分間だけと知っていたのですが、当日はちょうど満月の夜でしたので、ダイヤモンドヘッドからの幻想的な月の出も見ることが出来て、とても良かったです。

it was good time if the drunk people would be absent. it should be needed control/advise by the crews.

Before boarding ship, performers played fura dance, they made good moody.
This dinner was very good for me, especially I likeed roasted beef!
I enjoyed performance by singer and dancer, so I could join the teaching fura dance.
Of course, I could take a picture behind sunset on horizon.
Finally they celebrated us about honeymoon.

When you think of Hawaii, you think of hula dancing! While you can see hula dancing for free at shopping malls, a friend recommended a luau, and I wanted to find a tour where I could enjoy a meal while watching the show. This tour had excellent access (right near T Galleria) and I thought it was worth the price. However, I deducted one star because I think the age group that likes rock music may vary. For fans of Elvis and Michael Jackson, there’s more to enjoy than just hula dancing, and even if you're not from that generation, there are enjoyable shows included (^ - ^).

Even for someone like me who usually eats quite a bit, I was satisfied with the food and drinks. The quantity was good, but the quality of the ingredients was solid, so I think it would be great for food enthusiasts as well. It was a content that could be enjoyed by people with various purposes!

ハワイといえばフラダンス！フラダンスだけならショッピングモールなどで無料でみれますが、友人からルアウをおすすめされ、ご飯を食べながらショーを見てみたいと思いツアーを探していました。こちらのツアーはアクセスも抜群で（Tギャラリアのすぐ近く)お値段以上の内容だったと思います。ただ、ロック好きな年代は分かれると思い、星をひとつ少なくしました。エルビスやマイケルジャクソン好きには、フラダンスだけじゃなく楽しめますし、その年代ではなくても、楽しめるショーが織り込まれています(^-^)
普段わりと食べる私でも、ご飯や飲み物に満足しました。量もそうですが、素材がしっかりしているので、美食家の人にも良いかと思います。いろんな目的の方に楽しんでいただける内容でした！

The meeting place was farther than I expected, so I was a bit late, but the boat hadn't arrived yet. We waited for about 30 minutes while enjoying the beautiful sunset, and boarded the boat around dusk. The crew members were friendly, and the view of Waikiki from the sea with the fireworks was very beautiful. Music was playing the whole time, creating a club-like atmosphere on the boat. I tend to get seasick easily, and I regretted not taking motion sickness medication... Fortunately, my daughter, who gets seasick more easily than I do, was fine because she took her medication. If you're prone to seasickness, don't forget to take your medication.

集合場所が思っていたより遠く少し遅れてしまいましたが、船はまだ到着していなくて、そこから30分ほどきれいな夕陽を見ながら船を待ち、日が暮れた頃に乗り込みました。
クルーのお兄さんたちはフレンドリーで、花火と海から見たワイキキの街並みがとてもきれいでした。ミュージックがずっと流れていて、船上クラブの雰囲気も♪
もともと酔いやすいのに、酔い止めを飲まずに乗って後悔・・・。わたしより酔いやすい娘は酔い止めを飲んでいたおかげで大丈夫でした。酔いやすい方は酔い止めをお忘れなく。

Picture this the sea, the sky, the sun, the sail, and friends coming together on the Makani Catamaran Sunset Dinner Sail and you will experience the best part of my Hawaiian vacation.

The crew is fantastic. The music, the food and drinks are superb. The view of Honolulu is breath taking. As the catamaran takes me around the harbor I connect with the natural beauty of the mountains and the horizon. The sun slowly slips away and I am wrapped in Hawaiian gold.

The Makani Catamaran Sunset Dinner Sail is a must do.

There were more people from other countries than Japanese, but I was able to have a fun time chatting with those at the nearby table, even with my limited English. There were some women and children who looked cold, so it might be a good idea to bring something to wear over your clothes for warmth.

日本人よりも他の国の方が多かったですが、つたない英語でも近くの席の方とワイワイ楽しい時間を過ごせました。中には寒そうにしてる女性や子どもがいたので、羽織るものを持って行く方が安心かもしれません。

We participated as a family of four during the summer vacation. The first dinner buffet was held in an open area outside the theater. During dinner, we were able to watch a hula show right next to our table, which made for an enjoyable dining experience.

The dinner menu featured local Hawaiian dishes such as furikake rice, huli huli chicken, taro sweet potato, and whole roasted pig. One drink, a Mai Tai, was included, and adults could choose an alcoholic version while the children were served non-alcoholic drinks. Those looking for a wide variety in the buffet might find it a bit lacking.

After dinner, we moved to the theater for a rock show. Upon entering the theater, there was a photo session for the participating groups, which would be sold at the exit before leaving. The show featured talents resembling Elvis and Michael (?), though the resemblance was subtle. Our elementary school-aged child didn’t know who Elvis or Michael was, but still had a good time.

In the latter part of the show, there was a fire performance similar to a luau, which was quite enjoyable. Considering the content, I think the cost performance is high at about $220 for the family of four.

夏休みに家族四人で参加しました。
最初のディナービュッフェがあり、シアターの外のオープンな場所での夕食でした。夕食中はフラのショーをテーブルの横で見ることができ、食事しながらフラショーを楽しめました。
夕食のメニューはフリカケライス、フリフリチキン、タロイモのスイートポテト、豚の丸焼きなど、ハワイのローカル食が中心です。飲み物はマイタイが1ドリンク付いていて、大人はアルコール入りを選べ、子供にはノンアルコールのものが出ました。
ビュッフェに品数を求められる方には物足りないかもしれません。
食後はシアターに移動してロックのショーです。シアターに入ると最初に参加グループの写真撮影がありましたが、これは帰る前に出口で販売するためのものです。
ショーはプレスリーやマイケルそっくりなタレント（？）によるものでした。そっくりの度合いは微妙です。小学生の子供は小学生なのでプレスリーはおろかマイケルも知りませんでしたが、それなりに楽しんでいましたよ。
ショーの後半にはルアウのような火を使ったショーもあり、十分に楽しめました。
この内容で家族四人でおよそ$220ならコストパフォーマンスは高いと思います。

I participated in the 5 PM reception. I was planning to return before the sunset, but thanks to the captain's arrangement, we were able to extend our time and see a very beautiful sunset. Thank you to the captain and the lovely bartender! Please be careful with your footing when boarding and disembarking, as the waves can be high and the stairs are narrow.

17時受付の回に参加しました。
夕日が沈む前に帰ってくる予定が、
キャプテンの計らいで、延長していただき、
とても美しい沈む夕日がみれました。
キャプテン、そして美しいバーテンの女性の方、ありがとうございます！！
乗船、下船時は波が高いこともあり足場も細い階段なので、足元注意です。

At the time of the reservation, I couldn't predict the weather, and unfortunately, it was cloudy on the day, so we couldn't see the sunset. However, everyone on the boat, including the staff and other guests, had a great time! When drinks ran out, the staff encouraged us to have more, so we could drink plenty. There are also restrooms on board, which is reassuring! The wind feels amazing! I would love to participate again when it's sunny!

予約の時点で天気の予想が出来ず、当日あいにく曇りでサンセットはみれませんでしたが、船の上でスタッフも他のお客さんもみんなで盛り上がりました！飲み物が無くなったらスタッフが進めてくれて沢山飲めます。トイレもついてるので安心です！風が凄く気持ちいいです！晴れてる時にまた参加したいなぁと思います！

I wanted my 2-year-old to experience sailing, so we participated! There were two other families with small children, and about 40% of the participants were Japanese.

I had expected mostly young foreigners based on the reviews, but surprisingly, there were quite a few older participants as well (laughs), and the atmosphere was quite relaxed. However, when the waves splashed, everyone got excited and started squealing, and as the drinks kicked in, we gradually began dancing to the music, enjoying the lively vibe of a different culture!

The captain and crew didn't speak Japanese, but they were friendly and cheerful, which made for a pleasant experience.

While some reviews mention negative experiences, I think those who enjoy drinking and having a good time will really enjoy this. We've participated in various activities during our trip to Hawaii, but my husband, who doesn't speak English, said this cruise was the most fun. The rocking of the boat is quite intense, making it perfect for those who love roller coasters! Conversely, if you're looking to enjoy a more serene sunset, you might want to choose a different cruise.

2歳児にセーリングを体験させたくて参加しました！他にも小さなお子様連れが2組いて、日本人参加者は全体の4割程度でした。

口コミを見て外国人は若者ばかりを覚悟していましたが、案外若くもなく（笑）落ち着いた感じでした。でも波しぶきがかかるとキャーキャー言って盛り上がり、酔いがまわると次第に音楽に合わせて踊り始め異国のノリを楽しめました♪
キャプテンやクルーは日本語を話せませんが、フランクな陽気な方でとても感じが良かったです。

口コミでたまに嫌な思いをされる方がいるようですが、お酒が好きで、ワイワイするのが好きな方でしたら楽しめると思います。このハワイ旅行で色々と参加しましたが、英語が話せない主人でもこのクルーズが一番楽しかったと言っています。揺れが激しいので、ジェットコースター好きな方にもピッタリです！
逆に、しっとりとサンセットを楽しみたい方は別のクルーズにされた方がいいかもしれません。

I was moved when I rode it for the first time last year! I've decided to make it a regular tour starting this year! Enjoying a delicious Mai Tai against the backdrop of the hotels in Waikiki and Diamond Head♡ This is pure bliss. Sometimes getting splashed by the waves, and after the excitement of the activities, slowing down to fully enjoy the sunset. I'll ride it again next year!

昨年初めて乗って感動！今年から定番ツアーに決定！ワイキキのホテル群とダイヤモンドヘッドを背景に美味しいマイタイを飲む♡
これぞ至福の時間。時に波をかぶったり、アクティビティの様なワクワクの後、スピードを落としてサンセットを存分に楽しむ。また来年も乗ります！

Open bar had great selection. Length of trip with fireworks was perfect. Just what I was looking for.

I booked the evening cruise on the fourth day. Be careful, as it looks nothing like the catalog images. As soon as we got out to Diamond Head, the waves of the open sea caused a lot of up-and-down motion... Personally, it was the best activity, but I definitely do not recommend it for those who get motion sickness.

4日目の夕方乗船で予約。カタログ画像と全く違うので要注意。ダイヤモンドヘッド沖まで出たとたん、外洋の波でアップダウンの激しい揺れが・・・。個人的には最高のアクティビティーでしたが、乗り物酔いする方には絶対にお勧めしません。

I quickly found the reception area since I had researched it in advance. I arrived at the meeting time of 2:30 PM and was told to return by 3:00 PM, so I waited right in front. However, even at 3:00 PM, it seemed like the reserved guests hadn't arrived, and they were discussing something while looking at the list, which delayed our boarding. In the end, it was just our group and a family of three that set sail. It was nice to have the boat to ourselves and enjoy the view of Waikiki Beach from the ocean, but when we went further out towards Diamond Head, it was a bit scary. If we could have seen dolphins or something, it might have been more enjoyable, but I started to feel a bit bored. Since I can't speak English, the staff kindly checked on me in Japanese to see if I was okay.

受付場所は事前に調べていたのですぐにわかりました。集合時間14：30に到着し50分に戻って来てと言われたのですぐ前で待っていましたが、15：00になっても予約客が来ないのか名簿を見ながら何やら話してなかなか乗船出来ませんでした、結局私達と3人家族だけで出航しました。貸切状態でゆったりできワイキキビーチを沖から見ているでは良かったけれど、延々沖（ダイヤモンドヘッドの方）へ出た時ちょっと怖かったかな。イルカとか何か見れたらもう少し楽しめたかもですがちょっと退屈してきました。英語が話せないのでスタッフは大丈夫？と日本語で気遣ってくれました。

At the entrance, we were welcomed with a hula dance and enjoyed a welcome drink of Mai Tai (which we could choose to be alcoholic or non-alcoholic) as we entered.
We had dinner first, followed by the show.
The dinner consisted of delicious dishes! Our waiter didn't speak Japanese, but he listened carefully to what we were saying and communicated in clear English, so we were able to enjoy ourselves without feeling confused by any unclear English.
When he asked if we were celebrating a special occasion and I replied that it was our honeymoon, we received a complimentary bottle of champagne!
The show lasted about an hour, with dancers changing frequently and presenting various performances, and it went by in no time.

入り口ではフラダンスのお出迎えがあり、ウェルカムドリンクのマイタイ(アルコールかノンアルコールか選べました)を飲みながら入場しました。
先にディナーがありその後にショーです。
ディナーはどれも美味しいお料理でした！担当のウェイターは日本語は話せませんでしたがこちらの言っていることをよく聞いてくれて、英語でしたが分かりやすく話してくれたので分からない英語でモヤモヤすることもなく楽しむことができました。
今日は記念日なの？と聞かれたのでハネムーンだと答えたらシャンパンのプレゼントがありました！
ショーは1時間ほどですが次々とダンサーが入れ替わって色々なショーがあり、あっという間でした。

We had a great time seeing Waikiki from the water and the crew was great, they were very fun with the guests and made every effort to anticipate our needs.
