All Reviews for Social Cruises & Activities

My daughters and their families and I all went on the Mai Tai sunset cruise! The boat captain let my 13 year old “drive the boat” for a couple of minutes so we could get a picture! The Mai Tais and sodas for the young ones were unlimited. The sunset views were spectacular! Take this cruise! It’s great for all ages!!!

We purchased the five star sunset dining and jazz. The atmosphere was tranquil and relaxed. The staff was very polite and kind. The food ( 7 course) was magnificent! This was my second time for this cruise~ I will purchase another in the future

We love it! The crew are friendly and the performance was very interesting!! The food was stunning too!!! Love the lobster and the steak!! Thank you for this wonderful experience!!

I reserved a guaranteed seat in the front center, but today (the 24th), we were all together, and we had to line up for entry, ending up in seats at the end. However, the hula dance was significantly more wonderful and powerful than the dance I saw later at the Hawaiian Cultural Center, Star of Honolulu. The music and the emcee were truly American entertainers.

While I was dissatisfied with the seating, I was very satisfied overall, including the meal.

前方中央席確約で予約しましたが、今日（２４日）は、皆一緒とのこと、列に並ばされ、入場、端の席になってしまいましたが、フラダンスは、そのあと見たハワイアン文化センター、スターオブホノルルのダンスより格段にすばらしく、大迫力でした。音楽も、司会もアメリカのエンタテナーそのもの。
席は不満でしたが、食事も含め大満足でした。

I unexpectedly got to see a lot of whales. I didn't see this many even during whale watching. The other guests were all foreigners except for us. But we had no trouble at all and had a great time.
Everything was fun, but this cruise was my favorite. I definitely want to ride it again when I come to Hawaii!

思いがけずクジラさんを沢山見ることができました。ホーエルウオッチングでもこんなに見られませんでした。お客さんは私たち以外は外国の方たちでした。でも何一つ困ることもなくとても楽しめました。
全て楽しかったけれど、今回このクルージングが一番気に入りました。ハワイに来たら必ずまた乗りたいです！

I participated with my 3-year-old child. Even though I can't drink alcohol and this was my fifth time in Hawaii, I felt it was a shame I hadn't participated before because it was absolutely amazing. I didn't bring my camera because I was worried about getting it wet, but I don't think you'll get wet unless something really unusual happens. If you have a phone, there's a chance it could slip and fall into the ocean if you drop it, so I think a camera that you can hang around your neck is more practical.

3歳の子供と参加しました。
自分自身もアルコールは飲めない・ハワイは5回目でしたが、今まで参加しなかったのが勿体なかったと感じるほどに最高でした。
濡れるのを心配してカメラは持って行っていませんでしたが、よっぽどのことをしなければ濡れることはないと思います。携帯などの方が、万が一床に落とすとそのまま海に滑り落ちてしまうかもしれないので、首から下げるカメラの方が使い勝手はいいと思います。

Salmon we ordered could have been better. Dress code was not being implemented. Only few people followed the instructions.

The fireworks were smaller than I imagined and ended quickly. The Hawaiian food was delicious, but the crab was disappointing. I would have been satisfied with the cheapest course. Since it was December 22, it was cold, and I didn't want to go outside.

想像した以上に花火が小さくてすぐに終わる。
ハワイ料理は美味しかったがカニは残念。
1番安いコースなら満足出来た。
12月22日だったので寒くて外に出たくなくなる。

We attended this cruise on 2017/12/24 Christmas eve and it was a wonderful evening from start to finish.The star of Honolulu is an amazing evening from the coach "Royal Star" transferring us from the hotel to the ship and back with great care. Upon arrival, the 5 star guests were ushered to the boat and boarding was separate from others. A photo, drink and canapes were offered on the top deck. We were then shown our seats - private 2 person table along the window - and drinks were served. The menu was a 7 course meal with the Beef with Foie Gras being the highlight of the dinner! Tender and melts in your mouth. Overall the dinner is a 9/10. Wait service was amazing, very helpful, explained all courses and never stopped smiling. Drinks were well made and presented nicely.
The cruise it self takes you along Waikiki beach with some great views of Diamond Head and all of Waikiki. The ambiance the sunset creates is great for all couples and a very romantic backdrop to take photos and video.
Live entertainment was a nice touch, with a Jazz show. The singer had an amazing voice along with the pianist and sax player.
This is truly an amazing dinner evening with your spouse or partner.

My only disappointment with this cruise is the actual time to spend on the deck enjoying the ocean breeze. Dinner is served shortly after leaving the dock which having a course dinner is hard to get up and leave between each course. We did manage after the salad to leave for a few minutes. The waiter kindly waited to serve us the 4th course when we got back.

Overall this cruise is an amazing romantic and wonderful cruise for couples celebrating. Make sure to pay attention during dinner to get great photos of Waikiki, Diamond Head and sunsets.
Thank you to all the staff of #The Star of Honolulu for your professionalism making our experience a wonderful night.

I could only get the appetizer course on the upper deck due to it being fully booked, but I was fairly satisfied with the food and drinks. The view of Waikiki from the upper deck was pleasant, and overall, I was reasonably satisfied.

満席で上甲板でのアペタイザーコースしかとれなかったが、食事と飲み物もそこそこ満足。上甲板からのワイキキ風景は気持ちよく、それなりに満足。

The overall excitement of the venue and the interactions between guests created a great atmosphere. However, the location of the venue was a bit difficult to find, which caused some confusion.

会場全体の盛り上がり、客同士のふれあいなど、雰囲気つくりがうまかった。
会場の場所がわかりにくい場所にあるため、少しまごまごした。

Just awesome it was my friends birthday, and she loved it.

I participated in early December. Unfortunately, it was cloudy, so we couldn't enjoy the sunset sailing, but the night view of Honolulu from the sea was beautiful, and both the crew and passengers were cheerful, making for a fun time.

12月はじめに参加しました。
生憎の曇りで、サンセットセーリングとはいきませんでしたが、海上から見るホノルルの夜景は綺麗でしたし、クルーも乗船客も陽気で楽しい時間でした。

We had dinner first, and then the show started after we finished eating. I was very satisfied with both the meal and the show. I would like to go again if the show content changes.

先にご飯食べてから、食べ終わってからショーが始まる流れでした。
ご飯の内容、ショーの内容も非常に満足です。
またショーの内容が変わったら行ってみたいです。

Observations:
- I thought the price was high for what was offered.
- The meeting place was hard to find.
- The food was at the level of school lunch menus.

気づき
・内容の割には料金が高いと思った。
・集合場所がわかりにくい。
・料理は学校給食メニューレベル。

Had an amazing time with Phillipe and Zach! They kept it relaxed, fun, and super funny! Such a fun cruise! Funny pictures with costumes, constant jokes, great music, and Zach the bartender was running around grabbing people drinks left and right! I hardly had to ever go back to the actual bar to grab a drink. Incredible time! Would do it again in a heartbeat! Thanks guys!

The Rock-a-Flash show I attended was an incredibly luxurious and enjoyable experience. First, I received a backstage pass at the reception and was able to enter the venue before other guests. It felt a bit exclusive! I was led into a dazzling and beautiful room where I enjoyed champagne (we had non-alcoholic champagne) and tropical-themed appetizers, really savoring the VIP atmosphere. After that, I got to peek into the costume room where Elvis and the dancers' outfits were kept, and I was able to touch some of the actual props while taking photos and having fun. I even got to stand on stage, which was a bit exciting (laughs). As the mood lifted, it was time for dinner. The course meal was luxurious and delicious. My favorite was the truffle mashed potatoes, which had a taste I had never experienced before and left me very satisfied. After finishing dessert, the show began! The performances by Elvis, Michael, and the dancers were truly professional and amazing. Among them, the fire knife act was particularly impressive, and sitting in the front row, I could feel the heat of the flames, which was thrilling and nerve-wracking. The fun time flew by, but I was able to have a truly wonderful night.

今回参加したロック・ア・フラショーは大変贅沢で楽しいひとときでした。まずは受付でバックステージパスカードを受け取り首から下げ他のお客様より先に会場の中へ。ちょっと優越感！煌びやかで素敵なお部屋に通されシャンパン（私達はノンアルコールシャンパン）と南国チックなアペタイザーを頂きながらＶＩＰな気分も味わいました。その後、エルビスやダンサーが着る衣裳部屋をのぞかせてもらったり実際に使う道具を触らせてもらったり写真も撮りながら楽しみました。ステージにも立ちちょっと興奮（笑）だんだん気分も盛り上がりディナータイムへ。コース料理はどれも豪華で美味しかったです。特に私が気にいったのはトリュフ入りのマッシュポテト。今まで食べたことのない味で大満足でした。デザートまで完食してしばらくするとショーの始まり！！エルビス、マイケル、ダンサーの皆さんのパフォーマンスはさすがプロという感じで素晴らしかったです。その中でもファイヤーナイフはかなりの迫力があり一番前の席だったこともあって炎の熱さが伝わりドキドキハラハラでした。楽しい時間はあっという間に過ぎてしまいましたがとても素敵な夜を過ごすことができました。

My sister and I booked this event to close our Hawaiian vacation. From the time we checked in to the time we walked off the boat, we enjoyed the friendliness of the staff working the event. Ian was a charismatic captain, and Alex was a very friendly bartender! Loved that this was a casual, barefoot experience. The views were great! Would absolutely recommend this event to friends and family.

The view of Waikiki from the sea is amazing! The captain and crew were very friendly, and I had a great time! They even let me sit in the pilot's seat and took pictures for me. It became a wonderful memory!

ワイキキを海から見る最高の景色♪
船長やクルーもアットフォームですごく楽しかったです！
操縦席にも座らしてくれて写真を撮ってくれました。よい思い出になりました！

Rock A Hula was a great show for me and my friends! There was a lot of music and fire dancing, and enjoyable songs to sing along with from Michael Jackson and other old classics. We all got a free drink from our purchase which made the show even more fun. The food and service was excellent was well. We came all the way from San Francisco and we were glad to have heard about this show. We also got to see backstage which was very interesting. Veltra helped me with deciding on my purchase so I highly recommend using this site too for the future!

A really enjoyable evening - even though the weather was awful! But you can't help that!
A great view of the Fireworks and the lights along Waikiki - awesome to view a different perspective!
Super friendly staff
Plenty of drinks - was a little worried at first - I was traveling with my daughter - there was a Hen's night and a Stag night on board - thought I may have booked the wrong type of trip - a booze boat - I was really relieved - everyone was having a great time, without being stupid!
Would highly recommend this activity - it was one of our hi lights!

I was worried because my daughter tends to get motion sickness, but I spoke to an older woman in charge who gave me various pieces of advice and showed concern. My anxiety completely disappeared, and I was able to enjoy the experience without worrying about the motion at all.

娘が酔いやすいため不安でしたが
係りの年配の女性にそのことを
話す色々アドバイスをしてくれたり気にかけたりして下さり
すっかり不安な気持ちがなくなり
そして揺れも全く気にすることなく
楽しむ事が出しました

I had some waiting time before departure, so I was able to relax and take photos. There was a diverse crowd, including people from Europe and Asia. We were the only Japanese people there. I didn't fully understand the explanations in English, but I managed to grasp the gist of it!

The attire ranged from luxurious outfits to people in shorts and sandals, so there didn't seem to be a dress code. I tend to get seasick, so I didn't eat anything, and it was quite cold at the end of November, but I stayed outside the whole time. When my companion tried to get a refill, the meat was gone, but it seemed there were still plenty of potatoes left. The cookies they distributed were delicious.

The staff were kind, taking photos for us and being very attentive. It was disappointing that we couldn't see the orange sunset >_<. However, I was happy to see a small dolphin! I was quite satisfied with the views of Diamond Head and the hotel nightscape. I recommend this tour for active individuals.

出発まで待ち時間があったので、写真を撮ったりしてゆっくりできました。多国籍な感じでヨーロッパ圏やアジア圏の方もおられました。日本人は私たちだけでした。英語での説明はわからなかったですが、なんとなく理解しました！
服装はラグジュアリーな感じの方から、短パンにサンダルみたいな方もいて、ドレスコードはなさそうでした。
私は船酔いしやすいので食事は取らず、11月末で寒かったですが、ずっと外にいました。連れがお代わりしようとすると肉とかはなくなっていましたが、イモとかはまだ余っていたようです。配ってくれたクッキーは美味しかったです。
スタッフの方は親切で写真を撮ってくれたり、気配りもバッチリでした。オレンジの夕日が見られなかったのが残念でした>_<
小さなイルカが見れたのは嬉しかったです！
ダイヤモンドヘッドとかホテルの夜景を見れて かなり満足です。アクティブな方にオススメのツアーです。

As others have mentioned, there were no staff members who spoke Japanese, and most of the customers were English speakers. However, once you set sail, language doesn't matter. The pleasant breeze and the sunset scenery, along with the lively American atmosphere, allow you to have fun without worrying about the language barrier.

The snacks provided are just bags of chips, but drinks are all-you-can-drink. Also, you might wonder if there really is a restroom, but if you open a manhole-like cover, you'll find one. While I was inside, a drunk person playfully kept banging on the ceiling, but it was a fun moment.

他の方も書いていますが、スタッフに日本語を話せる方はいませんでしたし、お客さんも英語の方が過半でした。しかし、出航してしまえば言葉は関係ありません。気持ちの良い風とサンセットの風景。そして陽気なアメリカンの騒ぎっぷりで、言葉を気にせずに楽しく盛り上がれます。
おつまみはポテチの袋が配られるだけですが、飲み放題です。
また、トイレは本当にあるのか？という感じですが、マンホールみたいな蓋を開けるとトイレがあります。
入っていたら、酔っ払いにふざけて天井を叩かれまくりましたが、楽しいひと時でした。

We were the only Japanese people there, but once the drinks started flowing in the second half, we were able to have a great time regardless of nationality! Even though we couldn't understand the language, we took photos with the foreign ladies and interacted with the handsome crew. It was a lot of fun.

We had a wonderful time enjoying the elegant sunset and night views. It was colder in November than I expected, so a thicker jacket was necessary. I recommend wearing clothes that can be rolled up or shorter ones, as there is a possibility of getting wet when boarding.

日本人は私達だけでしたが、後半お酒も入ってくると国籍関係なく盛り上がれました！
言葉はわからなくても外人のお姉さん達と写真撮ったり、イケメンクルーにかまってもらったり。楽しかったです。
優雅に夕陽や夜景をみれてステキな時間でした。
１１月思ったより寒かったので厚めの上着必要でした。乗り込む時に濡れる可能性があるので、たくし上げられる服か、短めを履くことをお勧めします。

The sunset sailing while gently swaying with the waves was amazing! The drinks were all-you-can-drink, making it a comfortable experience! This was my third time using the service, and I look forward to it every time!

心地よく波に揺られながらサンセットセーリング最高でしたー！！ドリンクも飲み放題で快適に過ごせます！もお3回目の利用です(^^)毎回楽しみにリピートしてます！

Last time, I used the Star of Honolulu, but this time I participated in this tour because it was under maintenance. I heard that the seating was unassigned, but it can be confusing depending on the group. I think it would be better if seats were assigned. Overall, I believe the excitement level cannot compare to the Star of Honolulu. Also, a lobster voucher that I hadn't signed up for was distributed on the bus. I asked about it three times, but it seemed correct, so I accepted it without hesitation. Well, this was a lucky surprise!

前回はスターオブホノルルを利用しましたが、今回はメンテナンス中との事でこのツアーに参加しました。
席は自由席との事でしたが、グループによっては迷います。
やはりアサインされた方が良いと思いますね。
全体的な盛り上がりも、やはりスターオブホノルルにはかなわないと思います。
あと、申し込んでいないロブスターの引換券がバスの中で配られました。
3回位聞き返しましたが、間違い無さそうでしたので、遠慮無く頂きました。
まぁこれはこれでラッキーでした！

It was truly a tour that I’m glad I went on!

First, we entered before the general public. It felt a bit exclusive! While I was a little nervous with the English guidance, we made our way to the green room. After taking photos, we enjoyed appetizers, fruits, and nuts while sipping drinks, spending a luxurious time! The backstage tour was entirely in English, but just being able to see the rarely seen behind-the-scenes was so much fun and exciting! It was really interesting!

After that, we had a leisurely dinner. The food and cocktails were both delicious! And then came the much-anticipated showtime! We were seated right in the front, so close that it felt like we could reach out and touch the performers, and I was so excited!!!

After the show, we took lots of photos and got autographs, and it was truly enjoyable.

We went on our honeymoon, and I didn’t expect to experience such a special feeling, so it was a wonderful tour that will remain in our memories!

本当に行って良かったと思えるツアーでした！

まずは一般のお客さんよりも先に入場。少し優越感！
英語での案内で少したじたじになりながら、グリーンルームへ。写真撮影後、前菜やフルーツ、ナッツを食べて、お酒を飲みながら贅沢な時間を過ごしました！
バックヤードツアーはひたすら英語だったけど、滅多に見られない舞台裏を見て回るだけでとても楽しかったし、わくわく！面白かった〜〜！
その後はゆっくりディナータイム。食事もカクテルもとても美味しい！
そしてお待ちかねのショータイム！
一番前の席で手が届きそうになるくらい近くて、とても興奮しました！！！
ショーの後もたくさん写真を撮って、サインももらって、本当に楽しかったです。

新婚旅行で行きましたが、こんな特別感が味わえるなんて思ってなかったので、思い出に残る素敵なツアーでした！

I participated because I wanted to do something different from others on my first trip to Hawaii!
I heard that there would be fireworks on Friday night, and the night view from the sea was amazing, as were the fireworks!

It was a bit rainy, so it was cold, haha.
I forgot to bring a towel, so it's a good idea to have one!
Since it can be a bit chilly, I think a thick hoodie would be just right!

Also, there's an all-you-can-drink option!
It seems like everyone is given a Mai Tai at first, but you can ask the bartender for more drinks!
I was drinking beer, but there was also white wine available!

初めてのハワイで他の人たちと別なことがしたくて参加しました！
ちょうど金曜日の夜花火が見られるとのことで
海から見る夜景も最高、花火も最高でした！

少し雨が降っていたこともあり、寒かったですw
タオルを持って行くの忘れたのでタオルはあった方がいいですよ！
少し肌寒いので厚手のパーカーくらいがちょうどいいかと思います！

あと、お酒飲み放題です！
マイタイ？が最初みんなに配られる感じなんですが、
お酒作る人に言えば出てきます！
私はビールを飲んでましたが、
ほかに白ワインとかもありましたよ！

I participated in the VIP course alone.

First, it's better to arrive earlier than the meeting time. There are some light snacks served at the cocktail reception. I arrived right on time and was immediately guided to the show venue.

The food is delicious. The meat is tender and easy to eat, even for the elderly. However... the portions are small, haha. So it's a good idea to eat the snacks at the cocktail reception beforehand, haha.

As for the show, fans of Elvis might enjoy it.

VIPコースに一人参加。

まず、集合時間より早めに行った方が良い。
カクテルレセプションで、ちょっとしたおつまみが出る。
私は時間ピッタリに着いてしまい、すぐにショー会場に案内されました。

食事は美味しい。
肉も柔らかく、高齢者でも食べやすい。
ただ・・・量が少ないw
だからカクテルレセプションのおつまみを食べておいた方が良いw

ショーは、エルビスのファンなら楽しめるかも。
