Oahu
I loved it, food was great. Show was amazing.10 out of 10 I would go again.
Thank you for the great evening!!! Our family enjoyed everything and even learned a little Polynesian tradition and history - Thanks!!!!!!!!!!
Aloha and mahalo for your review Rich! We are glad the whole family enjoyed at the luau. We hope to see you soon!
Best experience ever. I seen so many beautiful. Fish and turtles. The crew were awesome and fun i would definitely do it again. Just being out there on the ocean was so amazing
All in all this was a great experience. It would have been even better with more interaction with the crowd.
Aloha Becky, Thank you for your feedback, and sorry you felt there wasn't enough interaction with the crowd. With all the Covid guidelines in place, there are several interactive segments in the Luau format that we can't do right now due to social distancing. Those are the segments when we invite guests on stage to learn the Hula, and also the Tahitian segment but we couldn't do that when you attended. We are looking forward to getting back to our normal format, so I hope you can return one day to experience our luau once things get back to "normal"...We appreciate you choosing Germaine's Luau as a fun activity to do while you were on vacation here. Mahalo, Germaine's Luau Ohana
We had an amazing time on this Double Decker Tour Bus ,relaxing, singing Christmas carols, and enjoying the beautiful sites.
We also enjoyed visiting Santa Claus and seeing the grinch before we boarded the double Dekker bus for our beautiful evening ride.
Can’t wait to book again next December 2022 and enjoy it all over again
Happy New Year Kimmy, Angie & Andi,
This is so great to hear! We are super pleased to hear of your enjoyment, thank you for sharing. Mahalo for the photos and we can't wait to see you again next year. We are very grateful! Stay well.
Germaine's Luau was very entertaining for my family and I. However, there was a lot of sitting around and waiting for things to happen. We were met with a mediocre box of lettuce and fruit to start with, there was some entertainment and then 1.5 hours later we were able to get other food; buffet style. The food was delicious but by the time my kiddos were fed, they were cranky and had enough. I am happy to say that I have been to a Luau and experienced the food and entertainment.
Aloha Family of Five, Thank you for your feedback. I apologize that your family had to wait so long for your dinner. It has a lot to do with the strict guidelines in place from our State Government that we have to follow, from the Check process, to how we serve the food, and it all takes time. I hope you were able to enjoy the scenery by the ocean, perhaps the beautiful sunset! I'm happy that you enjoyed the food as a luau should also be relaxing and entertaining...away from the hustle and bustle of the resort area. Thank you for choosing Germaine's Luau, and hope you will return to our island again, when we get back to normal. Mahalo, Germaine's Luau Ohana
Capt. Ige and crew was great. They treated us very good and showed us a great time. I am definitely going to do it again with other friend that comes up from abroad. Beach volleyball was fun and snorkeling near the reef was a blast as we were close to a sea turtle.
My family really enjoyed the trip/tour. They had a shuttle to pick up us from the hotel in Waikiki. We saw so many fish and sea turtles. Definitely want to do it again!
Aloha and Mahalo! We're very pleased to hear that you had a great time in the sandbar. Thank you so much for your kind words. We look forward to seeing you again in the near future.
We had a fantastic time on this tour. The staff was great and we had a great time. Great!
On behalf of Capt. Bruce, Aloha and Mahalo for your support!
Staff were great. Food was good. Entertainment was fun.
It was fun , would recommend and do again. Everyone was helpful and nice.
Thank you so much for joining us and shared your experience with us. We look forward to seeing you again. Mahalo!
Yuki and the entire team are a fantastic crew. It’s clearly one of the best activities on the island. Highly recommend them! The volleyball on the sandbar, turtle sightings, and snorkeling along with all the food and drinks were very well coordinated.
I’ve been to around 6-7 different snorkel tours and the experience at Bob’s tour is by far the best. The tour is well planned, faculties are pretty new and the crew attend to a lot of details - like you’ll get a shower right after you get out of water which helps a lot if you don’t like the sea smell & want to get warm and dry quickly. The lunch is also really delicious. They even provide hot chocolate after the snorkeling, not to mention the beautiful white sand, dozens of turtles and tremendous view at the snorkeling point. Mahalo for the great experience!
Kaneohe bay is so beautiful. Everyone was very nice. Snorkeling was super fun. Volleyball on the sandbar was also really fun. Seeing the turtles off the sides of the boat was really cool too.
The trolley tour made our winter feel the vibe of Christmas that was missing since Covid hit. It delivered us through a ride that brought the holiday spirits back! Our son enjoyed the ride very much and we enjoyed watching him having fun during the tour. We usually just visit city lights by using our own transportation but this tour is a big plus to add on to your city lights tour. While riding the trolley, you will get to listen to Christmas songs that will bring back memories of previous winter seasons that will never get old. Big thanks to Santa and his helpers for the great hospitality. Mahalo to the crew and Merry Christmas from my ohana and I.
Thank you for sharing your review and those precious photos! We are very grateful that you joined us. Have a wonderful season!
Phenomenal experience knowing cultures of Polynesian islands.
Unable to experience all the activities being offered on the same day though.
If interested you guys can buy shows tickets after the cultural center activities ahead of time or at least look into it if you want to do it or not.
Must have this expletive while visiting Oahu!!!
Aloha !!!
An amazing experience! It’s so well organized and they give you all the information you need to have an amazing time! It’s a wonderful experience and the crew is fantastic! Hanging out at the Sandbar is a unique experience, and as an added bonus, saw lots of turtles and lots of beautiful fish! Absolutely recommend it to anyone thinking about it!
Great and happy driver, festive tour, easy off and on the Trolly. Loved being able to spend time at Honolulu Hale, Christmas Tree, and Shaka Santa Tutu Mele! Also, the pre-tour Santa and Grinch pictures were so Fun!
Mahalo for joining us Annette and Happy Holidays!!
What a neat idea to use wet & wild for this event. I expected more for $155. The food was cool & the lime was closed by the time I wanted to go back for more desert. The piece of cake was so small. )1”inch square)
The show with the dancers & fire eaters was pretty good
Great staff- super friendly and accommodating. Lunch was good and the few locations we stopped at were so nice! A definite MUST
I would highly recommend this tour of all the snorkeling tours. This is very good for swimmers and non swimmers as the water level is only about 4ft near the sandbar. There is a beautiful coral reef that swimmers can go. The instructors are very helpful for non swimmers as they take them personally to show the turtles.
Aloha and thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review of yours. Your review is greatly appreciated and we hope to see you again. Mahalo!
In December, I signed up with transportation included. I thought the ocean conditions would vary daily due to the tides. It was mentioned that there would be wetsuits on the boat, but there were none available. Inside the boat, there were tea, chips, and apples available for free.
When we arrived at the sandbar, the captain explained in English that we should not go behind the boat. In December, the water was quite cold, so it wasn't comfortable to stay in for long. We were brought back to the boat once for a snorkeling briefing. Personally, I think if they had explained it first, we wouldn't have had to come back up. It was too cold for me to go in a second time.
After the experience, I asked a local, and they said that due to climate change, the sea level has risen, making it rare for sandbars to form in recent years. At 148 cm tall, the water was just deep enough for me to stand. There were life jackets available. I felt that for this price, we could have done diving instead.
12月、送迎付きで申し込みました。海の状況は、満ち引きがあるため、コンディションは、日々違うと思って参加。
船内にウエットスーツがあると書いてありましたが、置いておらず。
船内にはお茶や、チップス、リンゴが置いてあります、自由に頂くことが可能です。
サンドバーに着いたら、船長より英語で船より後ろに行ってはいけないなどの説明があります。12月、水はかなり冷たいのでずーっと入ってられるという感じではありませんでした。途中で一回船に戻されて、シュノーケルの説明があります。個人的に、最初に説明すれば一度上がることなかったのになぁと思います。寒いから2回目入ることができませんでした。
体験後、現地の方に伺いましたが、温暖化の影響で海水量が増え、近年、サンドバーになる事は稀だそうです。身長148センチの私は、足がやっと着くくらいの深さでした。ライフジャケットはあります。この料金なら、ダイビングができたなぁと感じました。
Thank you for choosing our Captain Bruce's Heaven on the Sea Tour among many options. We sincerely apologize for not meeting your expectations. Regarding the wetsuits, due to hygiene concerns during the COVID-19 pandemic, they were available by reservation only, and we regret that this information was not communicated effectively, causing you inconvenience. We aim to improve our tour content and services to ensure your satisfaction, regardless of weather conditions and other factors, and we hope you will visit us again in the future. Thank you for your valuable feedback.
キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度は数あるツアーの中から弊社をお選びいただいたにも関わらず、ご期待にお応えできなかったことを心よりお詫び申し上げます。ウェットスーツに関しましてはコロナ禍における衛生面の観点より事前予約性となっておりましたがご案内が行き届いておらずに大変ご迷惑をおかけいたしました。寒さ対策等含め、天候等の条件に関わらずご満足いただくことができるように今後のツアー内容・サービスの向上を目指して参りますので、またの機会にぜひお越しいただけますと幸いです。貴重なご感想をいただきありがとうございました。
The activities were great and the crew was helpful and friendly. It was a great experience! the volleyball game before the snorkeling was fun and helped everyone get to know each other, and the snorkeling was terrific. Highly recommended!
The sunset cruise was definitely top 3 things I have done in Hawaii and will for sure do it again!!! Staff was super friendly, food and drinks were great!!
We enjoyed our visit to the Bishop Museum. The Hawaii Hall has so much information about the culture, from people to plant use to gods. We also used the QR codes to access additional information about the exhibits and found this information very helpful.
From the moment you step on the pier the staff of Spirit of Aloha was upbeat and fun! We felt welcome and safe but new we were in for a good time. The drinks were simple but tasty and they didn't skimp. The food that was included could have been a little better, simple chicken breast sandwiches on rolls but you're there for a boat ride and booze! Checking in could have also been a little more organized. Overall I definitely recommend this outing on anyone's visit to the island!
A few of the families had a hard time managing their kids so one suggestion I might give to Spirit of Aloha Waikiki Sunset Cruise is hosting at least one adults only, 21+ cruise.
I went on my actual birthday and it was theeeee best birthday present I could’ve ever given to myself! The breath of life show was amazing!!! The buffet was delicious!!! The learning of everything was soooo beneficial and the overall experience was very knowledgeable and fun!! Loved it!
Our tour guide Kimokeo Ca on 12/04/21, 7:45am-5:45pm
* Knowledgeable, friendly, energetic and also humorous guy
* My family of 3 have a wonderful time and learn all the details about culture & facts around the Oahu island.
* He manure the vehicle comfortably and safe.
But sadly, in the end, he failed to mentioned to us and stop the Hyatt Regency Waikiki Hotel where we stayed in. I have to personally go to the front asking and tell him to STOP, but it already pass a few hundred yard from the original pickup location. I am kind of reluctant to give him the gratuity in the first place but since he has been very good the whole day, so I pass it to you anyway.
This was my 2nd time on Captain Bobs snorkel and sandbar tour. I will be back to Hawaii in May and will be booking my 3rd trip with this amazing crew`. This trip was a bit cool with rain (December which we kind of expected ) but how can we have beauty without rain?? The lunch is wonderful. You can not find a better crew and trip. Do yourself a favor and book Caption Bob’s sandbar and snorkel tour. You will not be disappointed…unless you are a Karen. Hahah
The two ladies are so nice, professional, helpful and patient. The captain very patiently led my daughter to the reef to see turtles and fishes. After the tour, we found out that our rental car was dead at the harbor. The ladies and two other guys offered help, while we were calling the rental office. They checked and jump started the car. We managed to drive back to the car rental office for replacement. Otherwise, we would wait for toll service for at least 2 hours. We offered additional tips but they refused. Very touched. They are the best!!
Aloha, thank you so much for your kind words. I'm glad you've made it back safely to your hotel. On behalf of Capt. Bruce, we thank you so much for your feedback and support! We look forward to seeing you again in the near future.
