All Reviews for Shore Excursions from Honolulu Pier

The whales didn't look as big as I had hoped, but since they are natural creatures, it can't be helped. More importantly, the breakfast buffet was disappointing with a limited selection. It might have been better to skip breakfast and eat on our own instead.

　期待していたほどクジラは大きく見えなかったけど、自然のものなので、仕方ないですね、それよりも、朝食バイキングは、品数少なく期待外れ、朝食なしで自分たちで食べてからのほうがいいかも？

I participated in the morning session, but unfortunately, I couldn't see the whales up close. I could only confirm that they were spouting water from a distance. However, I was happy that a pod of wild dolphins approached us before we headed out to sea. It was nice to enjoy a leisurely cruise, so I think it was overall good. Since I could only see them from afar, tickets for the next time were distributed only to those who wanted them, but I didn't take one as I had a full schedule on other days.

午前の部で参加しましたが、残念な事にくじらは近くでは見れませんでした。
ただ遠くで潮噴いているのだけ確認出来ました。
ただ沖に出るまでに野生のイルカの群れが近づいてくれて嬉しかったです。
のんびりクルージング出来たので、まあ良かったと思います。
遠くでしか見れなかったので、次回チケットを希望者のみ配布されましたが、私は他の日は
予定がいっぱいあったのでもらいませんでした。

Cheif's Luau show was good. Transportation was good. Food was alright. Disappointed in the fact that the 'coupon' for a free item we were supposed to get by booking with VELTRA was useless. In other words there was no free item.

I was hoping to see humpback whales jumping like in the pictures, but I learned that they don't jump during this time as they are preparing to give birth. Occasionally, I could see the whales' backs, but I was a bit disappointed as I had imagined something more whale-like.
After seeing the whales, we went cruising all the way to Waikiki. The scenery was beautiful, which was nice.

写真にあるようなザトウクジラのジャンプしているところを見れると思っていたのですが、この時期は出産前でジャンプはしないとのこと。時々、クジラの背中が見えるのですが、もっとクジラっぽいのを想像していただけに少し残念でした。
クジラを見た後はワイキキの先までクルージング。景色も良くてよかったです。

We participated in this optional tour during our first trip to Hawaii with my mother, two daughters, and husband. It was the girls' strong desire to join, but... we only saw the tail and back for a very short time. Even so, we were excited and shouted loudly, but I wondered if only very lucky people get to see the dynamic sight like in the photos. Moreover, the captain would say, "In the direction of ○○ o'clock," but everything was in English. While the foreigners moved quickly, the Japanese were all confused and flustered. In the meantime, the foreigners took the spots, and we couldn't get onto the deck. The announcements were mostly in English, and the crew also spoke almost exclusively in English. When we asked if anyone understood Japanese, they just shook their heads. We hardly understood any explanations. If we're going to spend half a day on this tour, I thought it would be more effective to extend our time for shopping around Waikiki or Kahala.

母と娘二人と夫の5人で人生初のハワイ旅行で、このオプショナルに参加しました。娘達のたっての希望で、参加したのですが...見えたのはほんの短い時間、尻尾と背中がちょっぴりでした。それでも、興奮して大きな声は出ましたが、写真のようなダイナミックな姿を見られるのは本当に運の良い人だけなのかな、と思いました。そして、何より、船長さんが「○○時の方向」と教えてくれるのですが、全て英語のみで、外人の方々はさっさと移動するのですが、日本人は皆、分からずオロオロ。その間に外人の方々に場所を取られてデッキに入れず。アナウンスも英語ばかりで、クルーの方々もほぼ英語のみで、日本語のわかる方、ときいても、首を振られるばかり。説明などはほぼわかりませんでした。このツアーに半日を費やすのなら、ワイキキやカハラ辺りまで、足を伸ばしてショッピングに時間を使う方が有効だな、と思いました。

3 Star was really all-time famous.

seat was really tight due to many passangers.

food was not that great. I guess 5 star only would provide great taste.

other that that, the trip was safe, view - great. Thanks.

We went on our honeymoon. Since it was Independence Day on July 4th, there were grand fireworks that exceeded our expectations. There was a mix-up with the arrangements, and we were guided on a different course than the one we had signed up for, which was disappointing, but we still made great memories.

新婚旅行で行かせていただきました。7/4の独立記念日だったため盛大な花火が上がり期待以上でした。手配ミスとのことで、申込んだコースとは違ったコースでの案内をされてしまい残念な気持ちもありましたがいい思い出ができました。

This is just a terrific event to attend. The chief and his extended family put on a terrific and funny show designed to entertain all in attendance from couples to families. Many pre-show activities bring you inside the culture of the islands. The food is tasty and plenty of it to enjoy. The staff is very hospitable. Highly recommend.

Chief was amazing, interacted with audience throughout the entire show. Show was HIGHLY entertaining. View from Luau was stunning, Dancing was incredibly, singing was awesome. Only downside of entire show was that the food was just okay. Pork was good, pineapple cake was good, everything else was just okay. However I would highly recommend this show even if the food was awful, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!

It was a very fantastic and romantic night!

The top deck is amazing for catching sight of the city line and it's a great place to spend a romantic evening. You have a wonderful view of Diamond Head crater and the beautiful shores of Waikiki.

I chose the 3 star dinner cruise, food was great and the staff were entertaining and very professional. As soon as you arrive at the Aloha Tower the staff will take you onto the boat and direct you to the appropriate floor according to the package you select.

As you enjoy your dinner, they have a 2 man band playing local island music and latter they have a jazz duo with a saxophonist. At the end of the night that was a fun Polynesian show and they got everyone in the room up on their feet and dancing.

I would recommend this cruise to everyone, specially for the one looking forward to a romantic night!

We took the dinner cruise on our first night's stay here in Hawaii! It was the best start to our vacation that we could have had! The food was fabulous and the entertainment was superb! We would highly recommend this dinner cruise to kick off anyone's vacation here in the islands!!

Perfect for all ages!
Chief's Luau was a awesome experience! We had an amazing time. The show is really entertaining, the food is good and the staff is great.
The location is perfect, beautiful views and great pictures.
Everyone enjoyed the night and came back home with great memories.
The Chief is the best part of the night, he put on a great show!

I would recommend this show to everyone!

great luau and very entertaining
for all ages. would come back again

Absolutely loved the dinner cruise. It was the height of our vacation! The staff was friendly and courteous. The food was Delicious and the entertainment was superb!! From beginning to end-FABULOUS!!

This was an amazing sunset dinner cruise for my girlfriend and I. We had attended this cruise as a birthday gift to her, and it felt like we were on a honeymoon. This cruise is meant for couples because it is amazingly breathtaking with the view of Diamond Head crater, the deep blue ocean, and the beautiful shores of Waikiki. Then to top it all off with a sunset upon our west coast beaches.

The cruise was very enjoyable for me and my wife. The atmosphere was welcoming and fun. Being on a ship in itself was exciting. The meal was well prepared and delicious. The staff were entertaining yet very professional. Many of my friends has take this cruise and I would recommend it for anyone.

Great place, nice views.
Funniest show we had in long long time!!
Definetively a great choice.

I had a great time with the activities, shows, and lures. Unlike the large lure shows, this one had a cozy atmosphere where the stage and audience were integrated, making for a really enjoyable experience. The host was a wonderful entertainer, which was fantastic! I highly recommend it!!

アクティビティ、ショー、ルアーととても楽しむことができました。大箱のルアーショーとは違い、アットホームで、舞台と観客席が一体になって、といぇも楽しい時間を過ごせました。司会の方がとても素敵なエンターテナーでそれもサイコでした！オススメです！！

Chief's Luau at Sea Life Park was definitely one of the highlights of my tour's while visiting Honolulu! The staff from beginning to end was just great. Chief was an incredible man and host and the music, the dancing, the ladies just made the evening something to never forget! The setting at Sea Life Park was great. You look in one direction you see the ocean, and another direction you have the mountain back drop. I totally enjoyed this show and food from beginning to end. Chief is the man, what he and the staff did with the fire torches at the end of the show was a nice way to conclude the program. I know there are a lot nice luau's being offered in Honolulu, but this one right here is right up there with all the others. Great show and I had a wonderful time and evening!

I was worried about seasickness, but it wasn't a big deal and the boat was comfortable. The food was tastier than I expected. I was lucky to see whales multiple times and was able to take great photos. The onboard cultural programs were diverse, and I enjoyed participating in activities like lei making and hula dance lessons.

船酔い心配しましたが、たいしたこともなく快適な船でした。食事は思ってたよりおいしかったです。クジラ、ラッキーにも何度も見れ、写真もしっかりとれました。船内のカルチャープログラムも多彩でレイ作り、フラダンス講習など楽しんで参加できました。

The entertainment was wonderful. The food was a disappointment. in fact, the cheaper tickets that went through the buffet had it better because they got as much as they wanted. Also, there wasn't much difference between our seats and theirs. I would do it again but would buy the cheaper tickets.

We had a blast!, great food, all you can eat crab legs. great service and great show! If you're still deciding what dinner cruise you should take, here's your answer! You can't go wrong! My suggestion take this event as your grand finale of your vacation, probably on the last day of your trip. Thanks so much hawaiian activities, they added Hanauma Bay trip as a extra bonus at no cost( but you need to pay for the entrance fee)which you can not missed! My family and I had a wonderful time.

My wife and I participated together. We enjoyed welcome drinks and appetizers on the top deck, and after taking a commemorative photo with the captain, we were guided to our seats. The staff was very polite and accommodating in Japanese, and the course meal was excellent. When we went out to the deck during sunset and fireworks, the staff kindly took photos for us. I think this was the best optional tour we've participated in during our time in Hawaii. I highly recommend it to everyone!

妻と二人で参加しました。最上階のデッキでウェルカムドリンクにアペタイザーをいただき、キャプテンとの記念写真撮影の後席に誘導されます。担当の方は日本語で丁寧に対応していただき、コース料理も最高でした。サンセット＆花火の時間にデッキに出ると、スタッフが快く写真を撮っていただきました。今まで参加したハワイのオプショナルツアーの中では最高だと思いました。皆さまも是非

I enjoyed the cruise dinner very much. Beautiful meal with a beautiful transportation to take in the view of the beautiful island.

This show will spoil you...other luaus just won't measure up! Do yourself a favor and get the Royal seating close to the stage, especially if you will be attending with kids. You don't want them to miss a thing! We all loved it!

My grandmother and I chose this as something different to do from the sightseeing and beach time we had been enjoying. The transportation is great even for those of us that are familiar with the island, and well worth the additional cost. The seating area is packed and truly would be more enjoyable with fewer people crammed in. The food and service were far better than expected and the "All You Can Eat" crab truly lives up to the name. The boat from an external view is beautiful and makes a striking appearance out on the open ocean. On the decks there are areas that could be maintained better, especially the areas that food is served from and are in plain view of guests. The top deck is amazing for catching sight of the city line and would be a great place to spend a romantic evening with a significant other. Overall this is something that I am glad we experienced and would be willing to take others on.

My friend and I decided to check this out as we were looking for something to do for the night. I have been to many Luau's before so I wasn't expecting anything amazing, but I turned out to be very wrong. the Chief was extremely funny throughout the whole night and he was also very interactive with the crowd. They had some fun activities before the Luau as well so that was fun. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a great night with great people! Hands down the best Luau I have done.

Lots of fun! Worth to go there and they are very friendly =)

Mixture of comedy, interactive games,music, storytelling,dance and music. Well worth the money. Picture is a bit pricey

Great show and very entertaining. Music and dances were fun, entertainers were very skilled. Everyone was pleasant and friendly. Food was only fair but I would go again anytime. The Chief was excellent!
