All Reviews for Cruise Ship Shore Excursions

While the tour was quite good, I would only reccomend it for the die hard fans. We got to see a lot of areas where they filmed, but it was predominantly from the van we were driven around in.
The hosts, while very knowledgable, seemed to be more interested in how they have been involved in the show and sharing stories of there time working with the actors.

The only real highlight of the whole trip was going to the location of Steve McGarrett's home, and we were only there for a maximum of maybe 10 minutes.

This was a great experience the food, view and dancing. So well worth it would do it again.

Awesome show! Went to another luau a few years ago at the Polynesian Culture Ctr and was bored! But this show was 100% better and this show flows.

My wife and I had a great time at your show well worth the evening

Amazing experience. Everyone was supper nice and the entertainment was amazing as well

Me and my parents took this tour in order to see the different sights associated with the TV show. We are all avid watchers and it was cool to see where certain things were filmed. The highlight was visiting the home used as McGarrett's home in the show. Our tour guide was awesome and she was able to answer the questions we had about how certain episodes were filmed.

Wonderful evening on the Star of Honolulu! Entertainment & music was fantastic! A huge thank you to all the entertainers, staff, musicians, crew & captain of the ship! Our wait staff, Nicole was exceptional! They all made our evening memorable!

I don't like being told how much to write or to do so at all. The cruise was fine

Great food and entertainment, staff was very friendly and service was excellent

My family and I had a great time with star of Honolulu!! Tyler was great in serving us and he was always making sure we were all fine!!!
For me , this activity is a must to do every time we come to Oahu!!!

Total package from online reservation, round-trip Transportation, LARGE SHIP, meal, entertainment & position of ship for Friday Night Fireworks over Waikiki, panoramic views of Waikiki, & stunning sunset, easily 5 STARS. Must Do Activity.

I chose this season to go on a boat to see whales, but unfortunately, I didn't spot any this time. However, I think it's great that I can try again with my boarding pass during my stay!

クジラを見たいがために、この季節を選び船に乗りましたが、残念ながら今回クジラの姿は見れませんでした。でも、滞在中乗船券でしたら再度挑戦できるので良いと思いました！！

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

So pleased with the service and experience I had. Our tour guide was on time and shared a lot of interesting facts and information. We got to spend an extra hour at Pearl Harbor because our guide was given our tickets early so he let us take advantage of that which was very nice. The day could not have turned out better than it did, even if we tried.

I could not be more pleased with my experience on the Star of Honolulu for our vow renewal! The entire experience was flawless from the captain and his beautiful words to the fireworks over the beach at the end. Only two suggestions or pieces of information for others considering this... 1) the three-star experience is not air conditioned and if you are there in July like we were, be prepared to sweat! 2) no children's menu so if you have a picky little one like I do, bring kid-friendly snacks

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.

It was more of an island tour. Saw some places they filmed at their homes but Definitely wasn’t worth what I paid for. Super disappointing. The guides were nice

Although we hadn't registered our marriage yet, we wanted to have a ceremony during our wonderful trip to Hawaii, and it became an unforgettable memory. With the captain's presence, we pledged our love to each other, and it felt very sacred, allowing us to reaffirm our feelings for one another. The staff who escorted us were also very kind and accommodating. Thank you very much. I thought it would be nice to participate again in five or ten years.

入籍はまだでしたがせっかくのハワイ旅行中に式を挙げたかったので最高に良い思い出になりました。
船長さんの立ち会いで愛を誓い合い、とても神聖な気持ちになり
お互いの気持ちを再確認する事ができました。
エスコートしてくれたスタッフの方もとても親切に対応してくださいました。
有り難うございました。
５年後、１０年後、又、参加したいなと思いました。

We loved it! Show was so good and the performers were amazing and so attentive. Highly recommend!!!

Great food, great service. The only thing I might add is to provide something to crack open the lobster

This was a last minute thing that we decided to do - and we're sure glad that we did.
Was a great night with good food and good entertainment to follow. Rose was our server and what a fantastic job she did, she had a number of tables to look after (as servers do over there) yet she gave intimate tables of two just as much as large group tables.
Overall a well run experience from pickup to drop off couldn't fault it at all

Entertainment was great. There was always something going on if you don't be careful you will miss the sunrise. I was beautiful.

We went for my daughter's graduation, we had a great time. The food was ok, but the performances and audience involvement made up for it. My kids really enjoyed it! The sunset was amazing!!! This is a must do activity.

I booked a tour for the next day while I was there. I received a confirmation email and waited at the pickup location on the day of the tour, but after waiting for over 20 minutes, no one showed up... I couldn't speak English, so I had to call, and with the help of the hotel staff, I managed to convey my issue. It seems the tour company said there was no reservation. In the end, I took a taxi to the boat and got a refund for the taxi fare, so I was able to participate in the tour after all. Since I didn't incur any financial loss, I asked Veltra to check the situation after returning home, and they responded sincerely. The tour itself was fine (I even saw a whale, albeit just a little), but it might be a bit risky to make last-minute reservations.

現地にいる時に翌日のツアーを予約しました。
予約完了メールも来て、当日迎えの場所で待っていましたが20分以上待っても来ず…英語が喋れないけど電話するしかない、とホテルの人に手伝ってもらいなんとか要件を伝えると、予約が入っていないとツアー催行会社から言われたようで…
結局タクシーで船のところまで行ってタクシー代を返金してもらえ、ツアーに参加することが出来たのでなんとかなりました。
金銭的に損をしたわけではなかったので、帰国後ベルトラさんに状況確認だけお願いしたところ誠実に対応してくださいました。
ツアー自体は問題ありませんでしたが（鯨もちょこっとだけ見れました）、直前の予約は少し注意が必要かもしれません。

The two guides were very friendly and informative. They helped us to understand what it takes to produce an entertaining television program that has spanned so many years.

I was excited about the tour, being a keen Hawaii Five-0 fan & was very happy when I was accepted as a solo traveller. The tour was described as being 4 to 4 1/2 hr duration. I was picked up at 8.15 am & by 11.45 am we were heading back to our hotel. There were two vans with four people in each meeting up at stops along the tour route.

Our Guide was very knowledgeable but I felt she was bored & repeating everything by rote. I still don't know her name as she didn't bother to introduce herself. She could have made the whole morning a lot more interesting. I do appreciate all the locations we were shown & background information we were given.

I felt very rushed & would have appreciated more time to take photographs. Also, being allowed out of the van at the National Cemetery would have been better than trying to get photos out of the windows of the van. The same at the Studios. If the tour lasted another 1/2 hour it would not have been so rushed & maybe a couple more locations could have been included. eg .Aloha Tower or where the Shrimp Truck is located.

I hope I might get another chance to do this tour again. Keeping the tour group small is a great idea.

This was my second time at Chief's Luau and I got say... i love the new location. The new venue is so beautiful. Chief Sielu is the best luau host in Hawaii, he is funny, entertaining and for sure he is what makes this luau so special. The dancers and the musicians are really good and the fire-knife dance is breath taking. The food is delicious and the buffet has a lot of variety. It was a lovely evening and I recommend this luau to everyone, specially families and couples.

Watching the sun set was beautiful! The entertainment and food was good, especially the unlimited crab legs.

It is very windy on the boat, so a jacket is essential. I was quite disappointed that I couldn't encounter any whales, but in the end, I was able to see a whale, so it was really great!

船の上はとても風が強いので、上着は必須です。
なかなかクジラに遭遇できず、残念に思っていたが、最後の最後にクジラを見ることが出来たのでとてもよかったです！

Only comment for improvement would be the food and the entertainment. Seemed that it was better when I went 5 years ago. There was a larger variety of food as well as more talented entertainment
