Oahu
The crew did a great job! We especially enjoyed sailing offshore from Waikiki Beach.
This was fantastic, more than we expected! Great food, drink, music, crew!
Never had so much fun! The entire trip was outstanding. The sunset was amazing! The sailing out of this world. Everyone was enjoying themselves immensly. We even saw a dolphin swimming along side us. Perfect night. I'd recommend this highly, 10+
Next time we are back in Oahu, we will definitely do this again!
Thanks again for an amazing, awesome time.

Great trip out. Very well organised. Very kind, polite, and professional team. Lots of turtles, delicious cocktail, great little commerative shaker.
I used a plan that included transportation from the hotel in Waikiki to the site. The bus driver was kind and introduced us to good shops for souvenirs and delicious local restaurants along the way. The explanations were in English, but he mixed in a little Japanese, so I could somewhat understand the content.
During snorkeling, I was able to see swimming sea turtles multiple times, and they were very cute. I also saw many colorful fish.
I could use the SUP for free, and I was able to stand on the board and paddle. On the boat, soft drinks and snacks are provided for free, so I never had to worry about being thirsty.
ワイキキ内ホテルから現地までの送迎付きプランを利用しました。
バスのドライバーは親切で、道中、土産を購入するのにお得な店や現地の美味しいレストランの紹介をしてくれました。英語での説明ですが、少しだけ日本語を混ぜて説明してくれるので、何となく内容は伝わりました。
シュノーケルでは、泳いでいるウミガメを何度も見ることができ、とてもかわいかった。色鮮やかな魚もたくさん見ることができました。
SUPを無料で使用することができて、ボードの上に立ってこげるようになりました。
船内では、ソフトドリンクとお菓子が無料で提供されますので、喉が渇いて困るということはありません。

Fabulous scenery, excellent staff. We went Friday morning 10/28. We played with paddleboards, and floating on the sandbar. The crew than walked us out to coral water with Google, and lifevests for safety. We saw many beautiful fish and found about 3-12"turtles mostly resting in the coral reefs. It was excellent time. Highly recommend.
Aloha, thank you so much for your feedback and sharing nice pictures.
We're happy to know you had great time and enjoyed paddle boat in Kaneohe Sandbar tour.
Our Staff are working so hard to exceed customer satisfaction.
Mahalo for the compliments. Please come back again. Mahalo!
Had a lovely evening with my fiancé, brother, and his wife. The food was excellent, and the sunset view was gorgeous at the top deck. The live shows were also very enjoyable. An overall wonderful experience that will never be forgotten.
Everything was perfect for this tour. One of our group was not comfortable on the water and the crew did everything in there power to make sure she felt comfortable and safe. Saw dolphins and sea turtles and thoroughly enjoyed the outing.
We had a great time with a wonderful crew of ladies! You all run a tight ship. Well organized, fun and relaxing time. Would have been fun to have a “I survived a Portuguese Man of War sting” shirt for the lady that ran into the little guy. Mahalo!
Highly recommend this tour. The crew was awesome! The sandbar was one of the coolest places ever. Beach volleyball was so much fun and the food was great. Snorkeling at the coral reef was good! We saw several turtles during the turtle watch time. The crew was very experienced Totally awesome experience! You won’t want to miss this one!
This was a very enjoyable excursion, the staff were very attentive and wanted everyone to have a great experience.
Chief was an incredible host. He was genuine, funny and awesome. The show was spectacular. I was blown away by the talent. The fire show was breathtaking. We were so touched by the recognition of anniversaries. The flowers were a beautiful touch. I highly recommend the Chief Luau. No trip to Hawaii will be complete with a visit to see the Chief! Mahalo!
The Captin Bruce Cruise and swimming experience was amazing. All of the boat crew members had great attitudes and made this a very memorable day. The crew was always right there to help all family's feel very important and helped in make a everlasting memory for all ages.
This was my family's first trip out on the Ocean. The crew helped us find the best places to see all underwater sea life fish and coral. We got to get right up to all the Turtles as they were resting in there natural environment or help us all swimming around to make these memories of a life time. I would love to be able to come back so I can make reservations with this same group.
We're very pleased to hear the whole family is having a great time at the sandbar. Thank you
so much for kind words and sharing your best experience with us with the Capt. Bruce tour.
Mahalo for your support and Aloha...
The timing was perfect and the scenery was amazing. I went alone, so I had various concerns, including about my English, but the staff member Kevin was very kind, and I was able to have a really enjoyable time.♡
時間帯も最高で景色も最高でした。
1人で行ったので英語も含め色々と不安でしたがスタッフのkevinさんがとても親切にしてくださったのでとても楽しい時間を過ごす事ができました♡
Super fun experience! The show was by far the most entertaining show we experienced during our stay in Oahu. The dancing was beautiful and the fire dancing was jaw dropping! We attended during our honeymoon and we were made to feel unbelievable special despite countless honeymooners and anniversaries attending as well. The only reason I did not award 5 stars is because the food was pretty mediocre. It wasn't horrible, but it wasn't great either. The drinks however, were delicious so that makes up for it!
Super romantic for our honeymoon! Great drinks and pleasantly surprising food! Super fresh food and lots of options! The roast beef was by far my favorite! The hosts were very accommodating and did everything they could in their power to make us feel special! After dinner show was also very entertaining and fun to watch. Everything else was a bonus because the sunset was the real star of the show! Take as many pics as you can!
The pickup was quick and efficient and comfortable from the bus tour company. The guide told us what to expect before we arrived and showed a safety video while we were driving. From there we were escorted to the boat. Then swiftly seated at our table. The inside of the ship was very nice and tables were set and ready to receive us. We were right next to the stage. The live music was awesome and our entertainment was nonstop from a ukulele Hawaiian singer to Jazz saxophone player with a singer, then an amazing array of traditional Hawaiian dancers that brought excitement and energy to the cruise. The day went was Friday so the captain stayed out longer for the Fireworks at the Hilton Hawaiian Village. (Caution if you get motion sickness take precautions Dramamine or motion sickness bands are a must. No joke) It was our wedding anniversary we had the best time and the lobster and steak were amazing.
I brought my family to the luau since it was our first time to Hawaii. The dancers, musicians and fire knife dancers were very impressive. The food was abundant and pretty good. The weather cooperated, and it was a lovely evening.
Compared to other luau experiences I looked at, this one was affordable. However, I didn’t feel like the food was as good as it could have been. The chicken was good—but it was dark meat. The pork was tender but had little flavor. The dessert was cake with a few pieces of pineapple next to it. Pretty expensive for dinner and entertainment.
It was nice that two drink tickets for beer, wine or Mai Tais were included with each ticket and free water and juice were available to all.
It was fun that the cast came out afterwards so people could have their pictures taken with them.
Driver Tomo was incredibly friendly and shared a lot of local information with us. The staff at the Kailua shop were also very friendly. Since my youngest daughter is 9 years old, we couldn't rent bikes, but they kindly inflated a small float for her, allowing us to enjoy the beach all day. Bodyboarding was also fun! For lunch, the kids ordered pizza, and I ordered barbecue, both of which were very delicious! I definitely want to come back here next time.
ドライバーのTomoさんがめちゃくちゃフレンドリーでローカルの情報もいろいろ教えてくれました。
Kailuaショップのみなさんもとてもフレンドリーでした
下の娘が9歳のため、自転車をレンタルすることができませんでしたが、わざわざ小さい浮き輪を膨らませてくれて1日中ビーチで楽しめました
ボディーボードも楽しかったです!
ランチは子供たちがピザ、わたしはバーベキューをオーダーしましたがどちらもとてもおいしかったです!
また次回も是非こちらでお願いしたいです

What an amazing adventure! The crew was so nice! The boat ride was amazing and the snorkeling was just out of this world! Best day of my entire trip.
The barbecue was perfect. And playing volleyball in the middle of the ocean was just unreal! Thanks again for the memorable experience

Music, dance , food , all you need for fun night ,
Watching the sunset on the boat was amazing
Thank you for making a memorable time for us
I participated with my 6-year-old child. We were able to see sea turtles and fully enjoyed snorkeling. The staff were kind to my child, and even though it was our first time in Hawaii as a parent and child, we had a great time.
6歳の子と2人で参加しました。ウミガメも見れたし、シュノーケルも満喫できました。スタッフの方も子供に親切で、親子2人で初めてのハワイでしたが楽しめました。

Great tour!
They provide all the information you need before hand. The creew is friendly and swimming right next to the turtles is just amaizing. Such an increíble experience!
I participated in a sandbar tour that I had wanted to go on for a long time with four friends from university. Since there was a Japanese guide, we didn't have any particular difficulties and had a great time. We had plenty of time to enjoy taking lots of photos both at the sandbar and while snorkeling, and we also saw many sea turtles from the boat! I highly recommend this tour!
ずっと行きたかったサンドバーのツアーに、大学生の友達4人で参加しました。日本人のガイドさんがいたので、特に困ることもなく、楽しく過ごせました。サンドバーでもシュノーケリングでも、写真をたくさん撮って満喫するだけの時間は十分ありましたし、船の上からウミガメもたくさん見れました!とてもおすすめのツアーです!
The sandbar felt better during low tide.
The sea wasn't very clear, possibly due to the rain the day before.
Despite that, I think it was great to encounter a sea turtle.
サンドバーは
もう少し干潮が良かった感じです。
海は前の日に雨が降ったせいか
若干透明度が良くなかったです。
その中でもウミガメに出会えた事は
良かったと思います。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. It seems the visibility was a bit poor, but we are glad you were able to encounter the sea turtles. We sincerely look forward to your next visit.

OMG!!! The best experience I ever had. Everyone was so friendly and helpful
First of all the bus that picked us up was old and need some works done. A 45 minute drive turned into a 11/2 hour drive. We picked the sand bar as my husband and I both can’t swim. I was pleased that we got to do some snorkeling together. We did see some turtles as well.
Then it was the deeper sea snorkeling. I was so afraid of the deep sea. So we ended up waiting in the boat for over an hour.
There are actually a few coaches on the boat. If they would Guide us through that would be a lot easier.
We just felt left out from the whole group.
Advice,
We participated in this tour at the beginning of our honeymoon. Since it was both of our first trips to Hawaii, this tour, which combined "food" and "entertainment," felt like a great deal.
**Buffet Dinner**
The dinner venue was filled with people from various nationalities, not just Japanese. Everyone had different reasons for joining; there were honeymooners like us, as well as those celebrating birthdays and wedding anniversaries. The food was prioritized for VIP seating, so the wait time felt a bit long, but during that time, the staff came to chat with us and even sang celebratory songs with a ukulele, which made the wait enjoyable. The buffet menu featured a colorful array of Hawaiian fish, meat, vegetables, and sweet potatoes, allowing us to enjoy not just the taste but also the presentation. There were also hula lessons during the meal, making it hard to decide whether to watch or eat, and before we knew it, dinner time was over. I regretted not having enough time to go for a second round! (laughs) Overall, the cast members were cheerful and friendly, and we had a great time chatting with others at our table.
**Showtime**
After dinner, we moved to the hall where the "Rock-a-Hula Show" began. The seating was mostly open, and aside from the VIP designated seats, we could sit anywhere there was space. The cast members from the dinner also performed as dancers, so it was fun to spot our server from earlier! The show featured a mix of different eras and genres, which was very interesting. The performances by local professional singers, as well as the cast members impersonating Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, were fantastic. Even songs we didn't know were enjoyable, and there was a rich variety of dance styles and highlights. Dancers descended from the ceiling, and surfboards were used on stage—such impressive staging! There were also traditional Hawaiian music and dance performances, with explanations in between, making it a time of both enjoyment and learning. Personally, the most impressive part was the fire dance. Watching a small boy skillfully dance while manipulating flames was breathtaking, and I held my breath in awe, giving a big round of applause during his final pose. After the show, we could meet the cast members in the lobby for photos, which was a wonderful way to share our thoughts while the excitement was still fresh.
Although some time has passed since we participated, reflecting on the fun memories made this review longer than I intended. However, no matter how much I write, "seeing is believing." With all five senses engaged—taste, hearing, sight, smell, and touch—this tour truly allows you to soak in Hawaii. I highly recommend it!
ハネムーンの序盤に参加しました。
夫婦揃ってハワイ旅行が初めてということもあり、「食」と「エンターテインメント」がセットになったこちらのツアーはとてもお得感がありました。
ビュッフェディナー
ディナー会場には 日本人だけでなく、さまざまな国籍の方がいます。また、参加のきっかけも人それぞれで、私たちのようなハネムーナーもいればお誕生日の方や結婚記念日のご夫婦など、特別な日を祝いに来ている方がたくさんいらっしゃいました。料理はVIP席の方が優先なので、取りに行けるまでの待ち時間は少し長めに感じましたが、その間にもスタッフの方が話し掛けにきてくださったり、ウクレレでお祝いの歌を歌ってくださったりと、ただ「待つ」だけではなかったのが嬉しかったです。
ビュッフェメニューもハワイのお魚やお肉・野菜やお芋が色とりどりに揃っており、味だけでなく見た目も楽しめました。食事の途中でもフラ講座などがあり、そちらも見たいしご飯も食べたいしで、あっという間のディナータイム。二周目を取りに行く間もなく食事の時間が終わってしまったのが悔やまれる……!(笑) とにかく、案内のキャストさんたちがとても朗らかで親しみやすく、近くの席になった他の皆さんともワイワイ盛り上がりました。
ショータイム
食事が終わると、ホールに移動していよいよ「ロック・ア・フラショー」が始まります。客席はほとんど自由席になっており、VIPの指定席以外は空いていればどこでも座れました。ディナー会場にいたキャストさんもダンサーとして登壇しているので、「あ!さっきのお兄さんだ!」と自分の席の担当キャストさんを探すのもまた一興。ショーの内容も、年代・ジャンルもあれこれ散りばめられていてたいへん興味深かったです。
現地のプロシンガーさんのオリジナルソングや、エルヴィス・プレスリーやマイケル・ジャクソンに扮するキャストさんのパフォーマンスも素晴らしく、知っている曲はもちろんのこと、知らない曲でもノリノリで楽しめます。また、歌だけでなく踊りの種類や見どころも豊富で、天井からダンサーさんが降りてきたり、舞台上でサーフボードを乗り回したりと、演出もお見事!ハワイの伝統的な音楽や踊りの演目もあり、合間には解説もしてくれるので、愉しむだけではなく学びもあるひとときでした。個人的に一番印象的だったのは、ファイアー・ダンス。身体の小さな少年が、全身で炎を操りながら踊る姿は圧巻で、息を呑みながら見守り、決めポーズでは感動の鳥肌とともに大きな拍手を贈りました。終演後はロビーでキャストさんたちと面会・記念写真撮影もできるので、気持ちが熱いうちに感想を直接伝えられるのが最高に嬉しかったです。
参加してから少し経っているにもかかわらず、楽しかった思い出をひとつひとつ振り返っていたら 感想が長くなってしまいました。しかし、どれだけ長く書いたところで、「百聞は一見に如かず」です。味覚・聴覚・視覚・嗅覚・触覚……まさに、全身でハワイを浴びられるツアーだと思います。ぜひ!
