The trip was amazing. We went the first week of September so there wasn't much turtles or whales. It wasn't the season yet. It was still extremely fun and enjoyable. I went with my grandma and her or I did not get seasick! I recommend this for anyone who wants to relax at sea with a bit of adventure! Really great for elders and little kids. They have a net you can sit on. They also have a bar you can purchase alcoholic beverages or sodas! You can also buy a sippy cup so you won't spill your drink! Highly recommend and there's a coupon on Groupon! Take everyone!!! I will be coming back with more family members! Definitely coming back in December for the whales!

The meeting place is at the ocean side exit of the Outrigger Reef Hotel. From there, head left along the beach until you reach the area with an orange umbrella and a flag with the tour company's name on it. It's quite hard to find. When I arrived before the meeting time of 2:30, I was told that the boat hadn't arrived yet, and we would meet again at 2:45. After waiting a bit longer, we finally set sail around 3:15. There were a group of ladies typical of Western tourists, a few couples, and families on board. The announcements on the boat were only in English. I had imagined a boat speeding through the blue sea, but it was more about enjoying drinks and music at a leisurely pace. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great, and instead of the blue sea, it rained at times, which was disappointing, but overall, it was still a pleasant experience. The ladies seemed to have a great time requesting their favorite songs and dancing.

集合場所はアウトリガーリーフホテルの海側の出口から出て砂浜を左に進み、オレンジのパラソルと催行会社名の入った旗が壁に貼ってあるところです。結構わかりにくいです。集合時間の2:30より前に行ったところ船がまだ来ないから45分にまた集合と言われ、再度行きましたがそこからもだいぶ待ちました。出航したのは結局15時15分頃だったかな？欧米人らしいおばさま集団と、数組の夫婦、ファミリーなど。船内の案内は英語のみです。青い海を風をきって走る船をイメージしてたのですが、ゆっくり走りながらお酒と音楽を楽しむ、というものでした。天候に恵まれず青い海どころか雨が降ったりしたので残念ですが、それなりに気持ちは良かったです。おばさま方は好きな曲をリクエストして踊ってとっても楽しそうでしたよ。

I participated with a friend. It was a pleasant cruise that really made me feel like I was in Hawaii. There were no staff members who spoke Japanese, but they would greet us using the Japanese words they knew. The music, the refreshing evening sea breeze, and the sunset created a luxurious experience.

友人と2人で参加しました。ハワイに来たなぁって感じがする気持ちいいクルーズでした。日本語が話せるスタッフはいませんが、知ってる日本語の単語で声をかけてくれたりします。音楽と夕方の気持ちよい海風とサンセットは贅沢な時間でした。

Overall it was a fun activity. Clean boat, good drinks, friendly staff, etc. However it was a bit presumptuous on their part to require your picture be taken for an upsell opportunity before you could board the boat. They had all the guests lined up for pictures like grade school photo day. Cheesy! Then of course after the cruise came the sales pitch the second you stepped back on shore. I was literally chased down the beach....LOL. Well it is the 21st century now, so many of us just used our smart phones instead at no additional cost. Other than this odd irritation I had an enjoyable cruise. Thank you.

From the description and images, I imagined a course meal to be enjoyed at a table, but when I actually participated, it was a buffet style, with dining taking place somewhere on the ship. The fireworks were not viewed up close, but rather from a distance; however, I think the viewing points were not bad. It was also nice that the deck was open, allowing us to sit wherever we liked.

写真の画像、説明文から、コース料理、テーブルで食べるイメージをしていましたが、
実際に参加してみると、バイキング形式、船のどこかで食べるといったスタイルでした。
花火も間近での鑑賞ではなく、遠くで見る感じでしたが、鑑賞ポイントは悪くないと思います。
デッキも自由だったので、好きなところにすわれたのは良かったと思います。

The Rock-a-Hula Show was fun!! I thought it would just be an impersonation, but the quality was very high and I was satisfied. The food was described as delicious, so I had high expectations, but it felt like what you might find on a typical tour. It might be nice to have partitioned plates. The hula was just okay.

ロックアフラショーは、楽しかったです!!
ただのモノマネかと思っていましたが、とてもクオリティも高く満足でした。
ごはんは、美味しいと書いてあったので期待しすぎてしまいましたがツアーによくありそうな感じでした。仕切りのお皿があるといいかもしれないです。
フラは、普通かなー。

My husband had a great time during the Fireworks cruise. Even though it felt like a lot of people were on board, everyone had a great vantage point for the fireworks show. Afterwards, we enjoyed boating, the views, and unlimited maitais (as well as other alcoholic drinks). The crew was friendly and check in on us, check in/check out was easy, but I would recommend bringing a light sweater because it does get chilly at night!

This is my third time in Hawaii, and I attended the show on the last night. This was my first time seeing the show, and the impersonator of Celine Dion had a wonderful singing voice. In particular, the segment about Elvis reminded me of watching the live broadcast in Honolulu on TV when I was in middle school, and it was very moving. This show is not just an impersonator show; it can be enjoyed as an entertainment show, and I believe it is worth attending at least once.

ハワイは３回目ですが，最後の日の夜に参加しました。
このショーは初めてですが，
セリーヌ・ディオンのそっくりさんの歌声は大変よかったです。
特にエルビスについては，過去のホノルルでの生中継を中学生
の時にテレビで見た記憶が思い出され，大変感動しました。
今回のショーは，単なるそっくりさんのショーでは無く，エン
ターテイメントのショーとして楽しめるものであり，一度は参
加する価値はあると思います。

Should be adults only since it is open bar, but it is amazing. A must do activity.

I participated to see the fireworks. The last time I joined, it was a daytime cruise, but this time it was my first night cruise. The atmosphere was completely different, and I really enjoyed it. The fireworks viewed from the boat were amazing, and I also enjoyed a delicious Mai Tai! It seemed like we took a route that we didn't go on during the daytime cruise, going all the way to Ala Moana and the harbor side, which allowed us to see a wonderful atmosphere that we usually don't get to experience.

花火を見るために参加しました。
以前参加した時は、昼間のクルーズだったのですが、今回は初めての夜のクルーズ。全く雰囲気も違うし、楽しめました。
船から見る花火は最高で、マイタイも美味しく頂きました！昼間のクルーズでは行かないルートを通ったのか、アラモアナ、ハーバー側にまで行ってくれて、普段見れない雰囲気も見ることができてステキでした。

We would like to thank the staff of veltra for their outstanding services with helping making our dream vacation a reality, we really enjoyed the Dinner Cruise - the staff on the boat were perfect, dinner was delicious, show was very enjoyable!

Thanks Again

It was our first time experiencing the glass bottom boat tour. Although it wasn't what I was expecting from the title of the tour, but it was fun. The boat consisted of boxes with glass bottom you can look down to see underneath the boat. During the shallow parts of the water, you can see fishes and of course it's not a guarantee on what or what not you would see. But, wish we would have seen more!

The captain and his partner were friendly and nice. We went during the first tour at 9am, so we basically had the entire boat to roam around with another family. They offer drinks (water, bud light, soda) and restroom on board, which was great!

We were also lucky with the day that we went. It was sunny but during some parts of the tour, the clouds covered the sun, so the breeze was nice. So all in all, it was a fun experience.

This glass bottom boat trip gives one a new view to look at while experiencing a cruise. Not only is the view amazing but you get to see a side of wild life you don't usually get to look at. We got to see a few different types of fish and a number of turtles.
Our captain and his partner were also hugely helpful. Answering all questions and giving us interesting information on the sea and boat life here in Waikiki. But do understand, you can't control wild life, so some days or seasons might be better to go than others. And while what wild life you see may depend on a number of different things, the view is always enjoyable and relaxing.

Fun way to spend a friday evening. Great sailing experience. Met some other friendly travellers. The drinks were certainly flowing! If I were to do it again I would have 2 shakers, instead of 3!!

The all-you-can-drink option is great, and the crew is friendly. The space is a bit cramped, but there is a restroom available. However, it can be slightly visible from outside, so it's better for women to take care of that before boarding.

飲み放題もついいてクルーも気さくで少し狭いですがトイレもついていていますが外から若干見えてしまいますので女性の方は乗る前に済ましておいた方が良いです

It was a great night out with my best friend. Phillipe and Dave were both great and the view was amazing.

The show was great!!! Michael Jackson..was on point... I would definitely recommend this show and watch it again.

The experience was fun, the catamaran is nice with plenty of seating & standing room. Some drinks at the bar, you just cruise out, watch the fireworks & cruise back. The kids had a great time but I think it's definitely better for adults without kids. Fireworks go for about 5 mins.

I would highly recommend this boat trip. It was fun and the drinks were surprisingly good. Although it rained, we still had a great time. The weather was warm enough to stay outside on the netting and enjoy the full sensation of sailing. The crew were very nice and attentive to everyone. There were no cheesy banter that I have come to associate with Hawaiian tours of any sort. The catamaran was large, so everyone had a lot of room to move around. It was clean and the head (restroom) was well maintained. Even though it stormed that day, the ride was incredibly smooth and no one got sick. The check in booth was at the entry to the harbor and the line went fast and effortlessly. The only caveat I have for others wishing to do this tour is that you have to have a hard copy ticket or be able to bring it up on your phone. Even though we booked online and they had our names, the lady in the booth needed me to pull the confirmation up on my phone . Unfortunately, this caused us to delay the line , which we hate to do.

I wanted to see the fireworks from the seaside on Friday, so I participated. The ship was fully booked, and the buffet guests and lobster dinner guests were on the same floor. Buffet guests could quickly grab their food and leave, but those having the lobster dinner had to wait for their meals to be served, which took quite a bit of time.

The ship isn't that large, so even without a window seat, there was plenty of opportunity to see the outside scenery, which was nice. I was told that the window seats were fully booked, so I couldn't request one, but I was lucky enough to have a window seat.

When asked if I would go again, I think I would prefer to go to a restaurant at the Hilton to watch the fireworks instead. I think once is enough for me.

海側から金曜日の花火が見たいと思い、参加しました。船内は満席で、ビュッフェの人とロブスターディナーの人が同じフロアでした。
ビュッフェの人は早く取って、食べて出ていけるのですが、ロブスターディナーの人は料理が運ばれてくるのを待つしかなく・・・結構、時間がかかります。
船はそれほど大きくないので、無理して窓側指定しなくても十分、外の景色が見えて、良い感じでした。うちは窓側が満席ですと言われて指定できなかったんですが、運良く窓側の席でした。
次また行くかと言われると、ヒルトンのレストランに行って、花火を見る方がいいかなと思っています。
1回行けば満足かなと思います。

Got a second email to do a review !! Lmao had a great time would totally do it again

The cruise was very nice. On time arrival. Great seating. Amazing bartender!! captain dave was a fun!! Really enjoyed the take home cups!!

It was so beautiful when the fireworks started on the water.We had a great time on boat.

I participated the day after arriving in Hawaii. There was some rocking, but it was enjoyable, and my mother, who was visiting Hawaii for the first time, was very happy. I would definitely like to participate again.

ハワイ到着の翌日に参加しました。揺れがありましたが、それもまた楽しく、ハワイが初めての母も大変喜んでいました。また、ぜひ参加してみたいです。

had a great time, the staff were very friendly and helpful. They had an assortment of drinks for the passengers. great value

I had high expectations, so I was left with a somewhat disappointing impression. However, I recommend it for those who have seen regular Hawaiian shows several times and want to experience a slightly different atmosphere. Even from the second-floor seats, you could see everything up close with the naked eye!

あまりにも期待しすぎていたのでイマイチな印象でしたが、普通のハワイアンショーを何度か見ていてちょっと違った雰囲気を味わいたい方にはオススメです。２階席でも十分肉眼で見ることの出来る近さでした！

My wife and I went for our anniversary and loved every minute of it. It's great to get out on the water in the beautiful Hawaiian sunset. The crew was very inviting and polite and friendly. The food was great and the drinks as well. Will be coming back to experience it again on Friday so we can see the fireworks as well!

This time, Celine was there. It was so wonderful that I was moved to tears. Michael was smaller than the person who appeared last time. The quality is high, but unlike the impersonators in Japan, the scale is different. It was moving.

今回はセリーヌがいました。とてもすばらしくて感動して涙が出ました。マイケルは前回出ていた方より小柄になってました。クオリティーは高いですが。
日本のそっくりさんと違ってスケールが違います。感動です。

Perfect way to end our holiday. We thoroughly recommend this activity when you visit Waikiki. Thanks for a memorable afternoon Dave and Phillipe.

Very nice Luau. Very entertaining. They provided activities for children. The food was very good.
