Great experience to learn alot of the past culture of Hawaii and the neighboring islands

First time seeing Pearl Harbor and it was extremely worth it. This tour is nice because you get to see the Punchbowl Cemetery as well

Very informative. Enjoyed our trip. Great weather.

It was an amazing.experience. i am glad i chose this tour with Captain Bob's crew.

The crew is lovely. Trip is laid-back, relaxing, and always so much fun! BYOB and sandwiches! Chips and soft drinks are provided. Paddle boards, floaties, snorkels, and other ocean toys are also provided. The trip is what you make it/want it to be! We always use Capt. Bruce when we want to go out. 10/10!

It was amazing and food was really good but the show and the host were wonderful

Love it here! The island is beautiful!! Would prefer more time there. Lots of activity options.

My first time going on a dinner cruise and I was really impressed. There was so much food & was very tasty! The entertainment was awesome! Highly recommend!

As a family of 3 young children (10, 7 and 20 months), we wanted to do at least one excursion on our trip and this was perfect for the 20 month old as she was able to swim in the sandbar! There were no issues taking the 40 minute bus and then the 10 minutes boat ride over to Kaneohe. It was very organized and clean! The staff were very professional and nice and when I emailed the company about bringing my baby’s float, they had no concerns! Kaneohe Sandbar was absolutely breathtaking and so beautiful! We even saw lots of sea turtles! We spent some time in the sandbar to swim and they even set up a volleyball net! They also come around and take pictures for you. While you’re out swimming, the other staff is preparing lunch. The food was pretty good too! Next stop was snorkeling and my husband said it was fun with the kids. They even rinse you off after you’ve finished. Definitely pack extra dry clothes as the bus gets cold - I read a review about that and it came in handy. I am definitely going to recommend this excursion to others.

The show is great and the food is good. I’d recommend anyone that wants to go to a luau, do this one. You will be happy you did!

great customer service and experience :)
met new friends

I actually laughed out loud several times as the Chief entertained. Also, Cousin Lisa and Cousin Ben were fantastic on the bus. Good life advice and great senses of humor. And Cousin Ben played the ukulele unbelievably well!

Thanks!

Mahalo!

The trip was so fun. Our captains were honestly the nicest and friendliest people. So many toys and snorkeling was AWESOME. Got to be up close with a sea turtle. They had drinks and great snacks for us. Honestly, amazing experience and great price. Definitely recommend

This was such a fun excursion to attend with a friend. Very convenient transportation and the boat was spacious and clean. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful for first-time snorkelers. Lunch and beverages were provided and the trip had amazing views. Highly recommend!

As soon as we came to the POLYNESIAN, we felt like we were in hawaii. This place is worth every penny. Would go back again in a heart beat.

Loved the catamaran, as we got to sit on the sturdy netting and relax during our ride. We saw a mother and newborn calf and hung out with them for the duration of the trip. Adorable. The crew was entertaining, kind, and resourceful.

We were three adults, but we saw several families with children of a variety of ages enjoy the activity as well. It was winter when we did it and it was super warm. They provide sunscreen, but if you are particular about brands, bring your own. Also if you are sensitive to the sun, bring a hat that is able to withstand the wind. Two additional notes: bring shoes you are ok with being locked up as this is a shoeless cruise. And you get two drink tickets with a very serviceable bar and local draught brews.

Family of 5 had a blast. Tour guides were awesome. Felt safe the entire time. We arrived to the sandbar to other guides with SUP, floaties and little floats for my 3 year old to snorkel which was a nice surprise. Would 100% recommend to anyone. Afterwards we enjoyed some Dole Whip at the pier.

The boat was nice. The nature expert was very informative and had tons of bad dad jokes. We looked for over an hour before we finally caught sight of the whales. We were pretty far away so we couldn't see them too close. We only stayed for about 10 minutes before heading back, since we were already running late. I'm just glad the trip wasn't for naught.

Chiefs Luau was so fun, delicious and historic. A beautiful display of what Hawaii means to them. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment.

Perfect setting, Perfect location. Captain and crew were amazing. We saw tons of fish and sea turtles. highly recommend this tour... Abundance of activities after snorkeling. BYOB as well.

Went to Hawaii for our honeymoon. We were in Oahu for 2 days at the tail end of our trip. This tour was perfect for what we wanted to accomplish on our last day. The tour lasted roughly 4 hours and we had full transportation to the hiking sites, plus entry fee for Diamond Head. We were able to see the sunrise at Diamond Head which was a once in a lifetime experience!

Definitely recommend this tour for those who want to hike solo, but need the transportation.

The whole experience was amazing but I also wanted to say what a treat and rare treasure it was to see and hear uncle Ben play the uklayla on the bus for us. Thank you cousin Lisa for welcoming us intonyour family . You made my birthday special

The best thing About this was the show..which was amazing..but the food was horrible ..the seating has us so squished together that it was completely uncomfortable..definitely not worth the price and definitely won’t recommend

I’m glad I did my research in looking for the best turtle and snorkel cruise because this company surpassed my expectations!! The employees were outstanding, wonderful lunch provided and a couple drinks to top it off. We saw turtles, eels, flying fish, and other tropical fish!! Then they took us out farther to find whales after lunch and we did get a few glimpses of some whales:) fun was had by all!!! Thank you !!!!

I didn’t know what to expect but I was very impressed with the tour and our tour guide. The Lau was great but the show Breath of Life blew us away. High recommended.

This luau was our first one but far superior to another one we did later in our trip. The food was great, the scenery gorgeous, and the performers were talented and entertaining. The MC Cousin Billy was truly funny and informative. We had a blast! The next day we did the hike to Waimea Falls and that was excellent as well. I could have floated in the waterfall all day. We spent part of each North Shore day at the Waimea Falls complex and I highly recommend it.

This luau is the best! We were staying at the Hilton Hawaiian Village and saw the luau they had from our room. Toa Luau is 100times better that that one! I especially appreciated the intimate and gorgeous setting! The activities they had engaged my 5 and 2 year olds… and had them attentive the whole night! The intimate setting and the care and pride they take in their heritage shows up in the way they do it all! It was personable, intimate, and the wittiest host, Cousin CeCe! I am beyond words for this beautiful experience! Mahalo!

It's a really fun experience. Everyone was super nice.

There are many breathtaking attractions and stunning tours on Waikiki. NOTHING is better than experiencing the beauty of Hawaii and it's wildlife than from the water - and the Star of Honolulu does it, like no other! Of course, the hope and draw of seeing whales is what brought us to this tour; however, truly, what makes this journey unforgettable is, in fact, the journey!

The boat ride, itself, is nothing short of magical. From the enchantment of rolling out of peer to the unreal experience of being on the ocean, looking towards our hotel from the perception of the sea is nothing we will soon forget! The crew were exceptional at being clear on instructions and protocols, which is appreciated - but truly what dazzled us impressed was how genuinely friendly and eager to help the crew was! I am disabled; the crew did an incredible job helping me and making sure I was alright!

The naturalist on board was great too! He was personable, knowledgeable, and open to questions, without being pushy. He enhanced the trip so much, and ticked our funny bone with his hilarious whale dad jokes!

Finally, seeing whales and dolphins in their own world took everyone's breath away! This was, without a doubt, the icing on the cake! We can honestly say, going on this adventure with the Star of Honolulu was the best and most memorable part of our honeymoon! Four of our biggest thumbs up for this amazing life experience; our biggest thanks to the Star of Honolulu!

I had my granddaughter as my companion and we so enjoyed the experience. The food was excellent! Wow a whole lobster which was such a pleasant surprise as I thought it might just be the tail. LOL. The serivice, the entertainment and overall experience will last me the rest of my life. That is coming from this 80 year-old-lady who hopes she has many more years left. Going to Hawaii was a life-long dream and I finally made it.. This sunset cruise topped off my whole trip experience. Have been telling anyone I meet who mentions going to Honolulu I emphatically tell them to take this sunset cruise.
Hugs to all of you.
