All Reviews for Social Cruises & Activities

I participated with a group of nine, including my friend's family. The singing, hula dancing, and fire dancing were impressive, and the children had a great time. I created wonderful memories with my friends.

友人家族と9名で参加しました。歌やフラダンス、ファイヤーダンス、迫力があり子供達もとても楽しんでいました。
友人との良い思い出ができました。

On the last day of our Golden Week trip, which was a Friday, we decided to participate in this highly rated activity of watching fireworks from a boat. After two hours, witnessing the ten-minute fireworks display was indeed a wonderful experience! However, while the food was tasty, I became anxious about whether I could eat much due to the boat's rocking for two hours (worried about seasickness). In the end, no one in my family could use the free drink tickets (two drinks each), and we barely managed to sip the first drink served.

Moreover, it was extremely cold. To protect my grandmother from the cold, we huddled together on the deck. Thankfully, we managed to avoid catching a cold until today, so it remains a good memory. The staff were cheerful and attentive to us, but considering all of this, I have to rate it accordingly.

Make sure to dress warmly if you go. I also recommend taking motion sickness medication before participating. Additionally, since the restroom is located at the bottom of the boat, I think it's best to avoid going to the restroom while on board to prevent seasickness. The sunset, the bright moon, and the view of Diamond Head illuminated by it were all wonderful, but I think one hour would have been sufficient.

GW旅行の最終日、金曜日だった為、花火を船上で見上げるのも一興かもね、と、皆さんの評価も高かった本アクティビティに参加しました。
2時間の末に見上げた10分の花火の饗宴を見上げたのはやはり素晴らしい経験でした！
が、食事は味はいいのですが、やはり食べると、2時間もつか（船酔いしてしまうのでは？）と不安になるくらい揺れるため、あまり食べることができず。
飲み物のフリーチケット（各２杯）は、結局家族のだれも使えず、最初のサービスの一杯に口をつけるのが精いっぱいでした。
そして、何より、超・寒かった。
祖母を寒さから守るため、身を寄せ合って甲板に座り、、結局今日まで風邪をひかないで済んだので、良い思い出ではありますが。
スタッフの皆さんは陽気で楽しく、我々にも大変気を使ってくださったのですが、、、そんなこんなで評価の星数です。
しっかり暖かい恰好をしていってください。
さらに、酔い止めは、しっかり飲んで参加をお勧めします。
また、船のトイレは船底にあるため、船上でトイレに行くのも、酔うのを避けるには、やめたほうがよいかと思います。
サンセットも、月が明るくなる様子もそれに照らし出されるダイヤモンドヘッドも素晴らしかったけど、１時間でいいです。。

On the last day, I made a reservation for the shuttle bus to the airport, which was supposed to pick me up at 3:00 PM, right on the day of my return.

The voucher indicated a departure at 10:30, so I arrived 15 minutes early, but it seems the daily departure is at 11:00. I was told to come back at 10:45, and in the end, the departure was at 11:15, so I had to wait quite a bit.

Still, the hour and a half boat trip was very pleasant, and it was a meaningful time to say goodbye to Hawaii on my last day.

Various yachts were sailing around, but this one took us further out and was faster, which made it a lot of fun.

Afterward, I washed my hands and feet at the water station by the hotel pool and quickly changed in the restroom on the first floor of the hotel.

Since I felt a bit sticky from the seawater, I recommend preparing a change of clothes in a small eco bag for the day of your return.

最終日。空港までのシャトルバスが15時に迎えに来るという、まさに帰国する日に予約をしました。

バウチャー券に10:30出航とあり15分前に行きましたが、毎日11:00出航のようで10:45に来てと言われ、結局11:15の出航で、だいぶ待ちぼうけをしました。

それでも1時間半の船旅は、とても気持ちが良く☆、ハワイにお別れをする最終日にとても相応しい☆、有意義な時間を過ごせました☆☆☆

色々なヨットが周りを走っていましたが、こちらのほうがより遠くへ行ってくれて、スピードもあって、とても楽しかったです♪

終わったあとは宿泊ホテルのプールに設置されている水道で手足を洗い、ホテル1階にあるトイレでささっと着替えをしました。

やっぱり海水で少しだけベタついたので、帰国日の際は、着替えをエコバックなどに小さく用意しておくことをおすすめします。

It may have been a coincidence, but there were no other Japanese people besides us among the staff and passengers. It was mostly young Americans, which was very nice. The catamaran was also wonderful.

たまたまかもしれないが、受付も乗客も我々以外に日本人はいなかった。　ヤングアメリカンばかりで、大変良かった。
カタマランも素晴らしい。

It's a boat that feels like a fish without substance, but it allows you to feel close to the sea, which is great. It's a fun experience that you don't get with larger boats.

身のない魚のような船ですが、
海を身近に感じれてイーです。
大きな船にはない楽しさですね。

Great evening and entertainment. Sat by door which despite staffs attempts to block off, was continually opened by customers causing a lot of wind while we ate.

It was simply amazing. This was the best part of the tour. The wind was quite strong and the waves were high, so we ended up soaking wet as if we had taken a shower, but that made it even more fun. My husband and I are already talking about participating again the next time we go to Hawaii. Despite the huge waves, I didn't feel seasick at all, which was incredibly enjoyable. The tour lasted about two hours and was reasonably priced, so I signed up with a casual mindset, but it turned out to be a great decision. On the way back to Waikiki Beach, we encountered sea turtles twice, which really boosted our excitement. When the staff threw out some food, a lot of fish came over, and that was great too. I highly recommend it.

とにかく面白いの一言です。
今回のツアーの中では最高でした。
風が結構あって波も高かったのでまるでシャワーをあびたようにびしょぬれ状態でしたが、そこがまた楽しくて今度ハワイに行った時も絶対に参加しようと主人と話しています。
あんなにすごい波なのに船に酔うという事が楽しすぎて全くありません。
時間も２時間位だしお値段も安いのでついでの様な気持ちで申し込んだツアーでしたが、大正解でした。
ワイキキの浜へ戻る時にウミガメと2回遭遇してまたテンションが上がりました。
スタッフの方が餌をまいたら沢山お魚が寄ってきてそれも良かったですよ。
かなりお勧めです。

I payed an extra 25 dollars per person for a guaranteed private table but the couples table next to us was maybe 6 inches away. Not very private at all. This issue aside it was a great experience and we had a lot of fun.

I went to a luau show. I wasn't expecting much, as I didn't plan to go all the way to the Polynesian Cultural Center.

However, I was pleasantly surprised. Even though I didn't understand the language, it felt like everyone could participate. The final fire dance was breathtaking. The dancers looked like they were having so much fun, which made it enjoyable for us too.

The meeting point was a bit hard to find, and the guidance wasn't sufficient, so I was a bit confused. I paid extra for good seats, but those who got in early were able to sit in the front. To get in early, you should stay a bit away on the Ala Moana side rather than at the meeting point. I think the guidance was provided early.

ルアウショーに行ってきました。
あまり期待していなかったのですけど、
ポリネシア文化センターとかまで行く気はなかったもので。

でも、いい方に裏切られました。
言葉はわからなくても、みんなで参加できた感じです。
最後のファイアーダンスは圧巻です。
ダンサーは皆さん、とっても楽しそうに踊っていて、
それがまた楽しかったです。

集合場所がちょっとわかりずらいのと、案内も十分では
なかったので、戸惑いました。
プラス料金でいい席を取りましたが、そのなかでも
早く会場に入ることができた方が一番前に座れます。
早く会場に入るには、
集合場所よりもアラモアナ側で遠巻きにしていること。
案内が早くされたと思います。

I was very satisfied with the 90-minute cruise while enjoying the view of Waikiki Beach. I was able to relax and forget about time.

９０分のワイキキビーチを眺めながらのクルージングに大満足。
時間を忘れながらのんびり出来ました。

I applied for the Golden Circle Premium, but I was very disappointed as my seat was in a backstage-like area. I had high expectations for my first luau show. I arrived early, but the ticket exchange was not prioritized, and there were people who already had tickets while others were waiting in line, which was disappointing due to the lack of guidance. It felt like the seating was grouped by foreigners and Japanese. The food was delicious.

ゴールデンサークルプレミアムに申し込んだのですがせきが舞台裏のようなところでとても残念でした。初めてのルアウショーで期待をしていたのですが。早くから行っていたのですがチケットの交換が優先ではなく順番だった人もいればもうすでに持っている人がいたりで案内もなくがっかりでした。席が外国人と日本人とにグループ分けがしてあったかんじでした。料理は美味しかったです。

On the day, it was quite windy and cold. The paper cups with drinks were being blown around quite a bit. Since everything was in English, I felt like I was just kind of looking at it... The fire dance was amazing. As for the food, it was just okay.

当日は風も強くて寒かったです。
飲み物の入った紙コップも結構飛ばされていました。
全て英語なのでなんとなく見ているという感じで・・・
ファイヤーダンスはすごかった。
食事はこんなののかな？くらいです。

The sunset viewed from the catamaran was amazing. The wind is strong over the sea, and it gets quite cool in the evening, so don't forget to bring a light jacket!

カタマランから眺めるサンセットは最高でした。
海の上は風が強く夕方は結構涼しいので羽織るのもを忘れずに！

The luxurious dinner on the large ship was like a show, so I decided to book a different route. It was very good. The captain was a typical American, but he spoke fluent Japanese and kept cracking jokes. We enjoyed the sunset while moving around the deck. We got close to the fireworks on the yacht, and they were spectacular. I highly recommend it to many people.

大きな船での豪華ディナーはショーなので、別の路線に行きたく申し込ませていただきました。
大変良かったです。キャプテンがこてこてのアメリカ人なのですが、日本語ペラペラの冗談続き。
デッキ中、あっちに行ったりこっちに行ったりしながら夕日を堪能させていただきました。花火もヨットなのですぐ近くまで行って、迫力満点で見せていただきました。多くの人に、推薦します。

When the catamaran first set sail, I relaxed while slowly enjoying the view of Waikiki Beach with a Mai Tai in hand! However, once we got out to sea, the waves were high, and the boat swayed significantly back and forth, making it very difficult to stand. Many people got splashed and soaked... it was full of thrills. (I'm not sure if this is always the case...)

カタマランが出帆した当初はワイキキビーチの景色をゆっくり見ながらマイタイを口に含み十分リラックス！ところが沖に出ると波が高く前後左右に大きく揺れ、とても立って居られません。波しぶきを浴び、びしょ濡れになった人も多く・・・スリル満点でした。（いつもなのかどうかは分かりませんが・・）

Wonderful time out on the water, Capt. Andrew was wonderful as well as his crew, they were fabulous!! Would definately go again!!

I participated in a look-alike show. I was really looking forward to seeing my favorite, Michael, and I thought I didn't know much about Elvis or Elton's songs, but once it started, I realized that all the songs were ones I had heard on dramas and radio, and I enjoyed them a lot. The singing was excellent, and when Elvis winked at me, I couldn't help but feel a thrill.

And then, finally, Michael appeared! Having grown up watching his music videos countless times, I briefly thought, "Wait, is he a bit chubby? Are his legs a little short?" But the lighting effects, sharp dance moves, and beautiful singing voice were just like Michael himself. It was mesmerizing.

Since I applied from the green room, my seat was right in front of the stage, in the center, so the performers came close to me one after another. The stage was an exciting entertainment experience, but the time spent in the green room and backstage/stage tour also provided a special feeling, so I highly recommend it.

The dinner was also very delicious, and I left feeling full.

I would love to go to this show again when I visit Hawaii next time. Thank you for a wonderful time!

そっくりさんショーに参加しました。
大好きなマイケルを楽しみにしていてエルビスやエルトンの曲はよく知らないな、と思っていましたが、始まってみるとドラマやラジオで聞いていて知っている曲ばかりで楽しめました。歌もとてもうまくてエルビスにウィンクされ思わずときめいてしまいました。
そしていよいよマイケル登場！ミュージックビデオなどを何度も見て育った私は「あれ、ぽっちゃり？ちょっと足が短い？」と一瞬思いましたが、照明効果やキレのあるダンスそして美しい歌声はマイケルそのものでした。うっとりです。
グリーンルームで申し込んだので席もステージの目の前、ど真ん中だったのでパフォーマーたちが続々と近くまで来てくれました。
ステージも大興奮のエンターテイメントですが、グリーンルームでの時間や楽屋／ステージ見学も特別感が味わえるのでおすすめです。
ディナーもとてもおいしくてお腹いっぱいになりました。

次ハワイに行ってもまた行きたいショーです。楽しい時間をありがとう！

The meal was a buffet, and the show was incredibly entertaining. The fire show is a must-see! Make sure to visit the Hilton and enjoy a great time.

食事はバイキングで、ショーがとにかく面白かったです。
火を使うショーは必見！ヒルトンに行って楽しいひと時を過ごしてください。

We will set sail around 4:00 PM and return before 6:00 PM. One of the great points is being able to see Waikiki from a perspective that you can't from the ground. Additionally, you can view Diamond Head from an angle that is usually not visible, which was also nice. We'll return just in time for sunset, so you'll get to see a really beautiful sunset. Since drinks are all-you-can-drink, I think it's great for those who can handle their alcohol and don't get seasick!

16：00ころ出航して、18:00前くらいに戻ってきます。
地上からは見ることの出来ないワイキキの姿を見れるのがグッドポイントです。またダイアモンドヘッドも普段は見れない角度から見れてこれも良かった。
戻ってくる頃にちょうどサンセットの時間帯ですごくきれいな夕日が見れます。
お酒が飲み放題なので、お酒が強くて、船酔いしない人にとっては良いと思います！

It was more fun and faster than it looked from a distance! Taking photos before getting on was a great memory.

遠目で見るよりスピードもあり、楽しかったです！乗る前に写真を撮ってもらいよい記念です。

I had heard that it was hard to get seasick, but when we went out into the open ocean, it was anything but fireworks. The foreigners around me were also terribly seasick. I'm done with this.

あまり酔いにくいと聞いていたのですが、外洋に出たときには花火どころではありませんでした。周りの外国人もひどく酔っていました。こりごりです。

We participated as a family of four. Since I have experienced dinner cruises on large ships twice before, this time we chose the catamaran. The ship was almost full, but we were the only Japanese guests. There were many foreign couples, and the all-you-can-drink Mai Tai was very popular. I had three myself.

It does sway quite a bit (sometimes the captain intentionally makes it rock), so it's not suitable for families with small children, but you can stand on the deck, and I think it's perfect for adult groups. Also, since we stayed at the Sheraton, it's very convenient for those staying at nearby hotels. I definitely want to participate again next time.

家族４名で参加しました。
大型船でのディナークルーズは、これまで２回経験しているので、今回はカタマラン号にしました。
船内は、ほぼ満席でしたが、日本人は我々だけ。外国人は、カップルも多く、飲み放題でマイタイが大人気。私も３杯いただきました。
さすがに揺れるので（船長がわざと揺らす場合もあります）、小さい子供づれには不向きですが、甲板にも立てますし、大人のグループには最適だと思います。また、宿泊がシェラトンだったのっで、近くのホテルに宿泊の方はとても便利です。
次回もぜひ参加したいです。

The show itself was fun and lively.

However, the wait before the show started was quite long. We received drinks and stood around for a while. After that, when we were finally shown to our seats, we were left waiting for quite some time before it began.

If you’re not particular about sitting in the front, I think it would be better to enter a little while after the doors open to avoid wasting time. Not only at the table seats, but also in the upper theater seats, the performers come around to shake hands. After the show, there are plenty of opportunities to take photos with all the performers and get autographs.

ショーそのものは、楽しく盛り上がってました。

ただ、ショーが始まるまで長かったですね、ドリンクをもらって立ち飲みの状態でしばらく待ちます。その後、やっと席に案内されたと思ったら、そのままほったらかしで、なかなか始まりません。

前の方の席に拘らなければ、ドアオープンからしばらくたってから入場した方が時間を無駄にしないと思いました。
テーブル席だけでなく、上の劇場席まで○○さんが握手をしに来てくれます。
ショー終了後に、出演者全員と写真を撮ったり、サインをもらったりするする機会がタップリあります。

Everyone except for us, a couple, was from an English-speaking country.
At the beginning, the pace was slow and the atmosphere was relaxed, but from the middle, the speed picked up, and we were squealing with excitement at the splashes of water.
The background music also got louder, and everyone's spirits lifted.
Although it was far away, I was moved to see a whale.
Out in the distance, the crew members were feeding fish.
There were mostly black fish, but many gathered around.
As for attire, some people were in swimsuits, while others wore T-shirts and shorts.
It's reasonably priced, and I think it's worth participating.
It was truly refreshing.

私たち夫婦以外は皆さん英語圏の方でした。
序盤は緩やかなスピードでのんびりした雰囲気でしたが、
中盤から、スピードが速くなり、水しぶきにキャーキャー。
ＢＧＭも大音量になって、皆のテンションも上がります。
遠くでしたが、クジラを見れて感動しました。
沖の方で、船員さんが魚にエサをあげます。
黒い魚ばかりでしたがたくさん集まってきました。
服装は、水着の人もいれば、Ｔシャツに短パンの人もいました。
手頃な値段だし、参加してみてもいいと思います。
まさに爽快です。

The weather wasn't very good, but seeing the whales made for an amazing memory. I would like to participate again next time.

天気は、あまり良くなかったですが、クジラも見れて最高の思い出になりました。
次回も、参加したいと思います。

There are various menus available, and even during the bright red sunset from land, sea, and sky, the sunset from the sea evokes an exhilarating reaction regardless of age. The pricing, crew, number of tour participants, and of course, the handsome captain provided truly delightful service tailored for singles, couples, and families. About one-third of the tour participants were Japanese, but after departure, everyone formed a group. The hosts were wonderful, and coincidentally, we were on the same boat as the currently popular couple, Yuya Uchida and Kiki Kuroki, which added to the sense of quality. I would love to ride the same catamaran with the same crew next time.

色々なメニューが有ります、陸海空からの真っ赤なサンセット中でも海からのサンセットは年齢に関わらず感激の奇声を発してしまいます、価格、クルー、ツアーの人数、キャプテンは無論イケメンコンビは、シングル、カップル、ファミリーへの肌理細やかなサービスには誠に楽しいものでした、ツアーの日本人は三分の一位でしたが，出航後は全員がグループ化していました素晴らしいホストでもありました、又当日は偶然にも今話題の内田裕也、樹希樹林夫妻と同船で、グレード感も感じました、次回も同じクルーのカタマラン号に乗りたいたいと思います。

I participated on the last night of my honeymoon. The fireworks viewed from the sea were very beautiful. I think it will be a great memory. The tour is in English, but there are crew members who can speak Japanese, which is reassuring.

新婚旅行の最後の夜に参加しました。
海からの見る花火はとても綺麗でした。
いい記念になると思います。
ツアーは英語となってますが、日本語が話せるクルーもいて安心です。

I was glad to be able to see a show at the hotel where I was staying. The fire dance was powerful and moving.

宿泊しているホテル内でショーを見られて良かったです。
ファイヤーダンスは迫力満点で感動でした。

The sunset viewed from Waikiki Beach is beautiful, but the sunset seen from the ocean is exceptional. Be sure to enjoy the sunset cruise on a catamaran among the guests from the mainland. I think you'll create memories that are different from before.

ワイキキビーチから見るサンセットも素敵ですが、洋上から眺めるサンセットは格別。本土からの客に交じって是非カタマランからのサンセットクルーズを楽しんでください。これまでと違った思い出が残ると思います。

We originally tried to book the Navatek Cruise for Valentine's Night, but it was fully booked. We then booked the following night (Wednesday 15th Feb), but after receiving our confirmation we were advised that 15th had been overbooked, so we were moved to the 16th. Found this slightly strange, as we were a party of 10, however, no great harm done as we were all free on the 16th.
Bus pick up was slightly early, but we lost this advantage when a couple of passengers at one of the other hotels were late, however, still reached the dock in plenty of time.
Cruise itself was very good - we had pretty good views from our table. The food and entertainment was excellent and service fast and efficient. Drink prices also very reasonable (a decent bottle of red wine was only $ 20.00).
Views from up on the viewing decks were spectacular, and everything finished bang on time at 7.30 pm, with buses sitting waiting for us at the dock, before a speedy ride back to our hotel.
Overall a very good exp
