The guide was great, and the sandbar was waist-deep, which made me wonder how planning a sandbar visit during this time of year would be. Unfortunately, I could only see the sea turtles from a distance, which was really disappointing. However, the hamburger for lunch was delicious. On the other hand, the drinks were a letdown.

調子のいいガイドさんとサンドバーが腰まで浸かりこの時期にサンドバーを計画するのはどうなのかな？と思いました。また、ウミガメも遠くからしか見えず全く残念。ただ、ランチのハンバーガーは美味しかった。でも、飲み物は残念でした。

This is an optional tour that departs from the beach in front of the Sheraton Waikiki Hotel and returns in about 1.5 hours, making it easy to join. We enjoyed a great time on a catamaran yacht that can accommodate up to 30 people, taking in views of the hotel area and Diamond Head from offshore Waikiki. A camera is a must, as you'll be able to capture some truly Hawaiian photos. The captain is a cheerful woman who really enhances the atmosphere.

シェラトンワイキキホテル前のビーチを出発し1.5時間くらいで戻れて気軽に参加できるオプショナルツアーです。30人は乗れるカタマランヨットでワイキキ沖からホテル群やダイヤモンドヘッドを眺め楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。カメラは必携です、とてもハワイらしいいい写真が撮れますよ。またキャプテンは陽気な女性で雰囲気を盛り上げてくれます。

Generally the tour is good, however, the tour guide didn't introduce other activities available at Pearl Harbor, such as Battleship Missouri Tour. We could organise the tours better if he told us how much time other tours take. The Battleship tour definitely worth it, we stayed behind for it.

My husband and I really enjoyed this outing. The crew was laid back and friendly. We definitely saw turtles. They had snacks on board and alcohol for purchase. Easily my favorite afternoon in Waikiki. Thank you!

Due to rain that evening, there was no sunset. But three of us enjoyed the dinner and live entertainment. Fortunately, we were seated at a table right in front. Our waiter, Ethan was superb! He was very friendly and attentive to our needs. Dinner was delicious! Would recommend this event.

Thank you for taking care of us on the 11:00 AM departure course on November 1st. The thorough safety checks and explanations beforehand made us feel secure and allowed us to enjoy ourselves. Although I'm not great at understanding English, the repeated explanations in both English and Japanese helped me understand well, and I feel like I learned something in English too, haha.

Traveling by boat takes some time, but during that time, the staff entertained us by singing with a ukulele and dancing to the music, which was very fulfilling. We were also blessed with good weather, and the staff, both men and women, were wonderful people. It was truly the best experience. Thank you! ☆

11/1の11時出港コースでお世話になりました。
安全確認など事前の説明が丁寧で安心して楽しめました。
私は英語の聞き取りも得意ではありませんが、英語の説明と日本語の説明を繰り返してもらえるので、
十分理解できますし、英語の勉強にもなった気がします笑
船での移動はある程度時間がかかりますが、その間、スタッフの皆さんがウクレレで歌を歌ったり、音楽に合わせてダンスを踊ったりと、とても充実していました。
天候にも恵まれましたし、スタッフの皆さんも男性女性ともに素敵な人達で、本当に最高でした。
ありがとうございました☆

Great tour, luau/dinner and show, but made for a long day!

Toa was very knowledgeable about the history of the memorial and also very entertaining

It was awesome. We had the time of our lives and our guide was the best.

My friend couldn't make it for personal reasons, so I participated alone! I was the only one attending solo; everyone else was with friends, couples, or spouses, which made me a bit anxious at first. However, once I got on the boat, I became engrossed in searching for dolphins, and when I was snorkeling, I focused on swimming, so it was fine! I also got to see hula dancing and enjoyed a delicious hamburger, which left me satisfied. Since I couldn't swim with the dolphins or turtles, I received a half-price ticket for the next time, so I definitely want to participate again!

友人が訳あってこれなくなり
1人で参加させていただきました！
1人での参加は私だけで他は友人どうし、カップル、夫婦などで
最初は不安でした。
けどいざ船に乗ればイルカ探しに夢中になりますし
シュノーケルしている時は泳ぎに集中するので
大丈夫でした！
フラダンスも見れて美味しいハンバーガーを食べて
満足でした。
イルカ、亀と泳ぐことができなかったので
次回の半額券も頂いたのでまた参加したいです！

I was able to see sea turtles. I was told by the foreign staff that I needed to be able to swim breaststroke, but the Japanese staff provided a float, allowing me to enjoy myself. The sea was somewhat murky, so I would recommend other beaches for those who really want to see clear water.

ウミガメを見ることができました。
平泳ぎが出来ないとダメと外人スタッフから
言われましたが、日本人スタッフがフロートを
出してくれて楽しむことができました。
海は多少濁っていましたので本当に透明な海を
見たい人は他のビーチをお勧めします。

The meal was average at the buffet, but the Hawaiian dancer staff livened things up with singing and dancing. The Rock-a-Hula show featured a performer who looked just like Presley, and the singing and dancing were great. As a fan service, they came up to the second floor and shook hands with each person.

食事はビュッヘで月並みだったが、ハワイアンダンサーのスタッフが歌ったり、踊ったりして盛り上げてくれた。ロック・ア・フラショーはプレスリーがそっくりで歌とダンスが良かった。ファン・サービスで２階席まで上がって来て、一人づつ握手してくれた。

The tour was ok. There are a number of things that this group could do to make this a better, more rounded tour. The tour could have picked us up earlier to get us over to Kaneohe and in the water sooner. As it was the tour/adventure felt forced/rushed instead of being a relaxing experience. He equipment provided could have been of a better quality. Perhaps more time snorkeling for what is billed as a snorkelling adventure would have been better. The crew on the boat were good and tried to make things enjoyable for everyone.

Would highly recommend!! We enjoyed this so so much! Very professional and polite crew!!

The dolphin I wanted to see the most wasn't there. It's disappointing, but there's nothing that can be done, I guess? I encountered sea turtles both on the ocean floor and at the surface; it was my first experience. The staff were young and showed us songs and dances, and they also prepared water slides and kayaks, which was fun. Next time, I definitely want to see the dolphins!

一番見たかったイルカはいませんでした。残念ですが、致し方なし？かな？です。
ウミガメは海底と海面で遭遇、初体験でした。
ただスタッフの方々は若く歌や踊りを見せてくれたり、ウォータースライダーやカヤック等も準備して頂き、楽しかったです。
次回は是非イルカと！

We were guided for priority entry by a suited manager in front of the waiting crowd when it was time to enter. We took cocktails and commemorative photos in the green room, and also borrowed costumes to take more commemorative photos backstage. The backstage tour was fun. Our table was in front of the stage, and the food was delicious. We ordered a celebratory cake, but we couldn't finish it, so we had it packed in a cake box to take home. After the show, we took many more commemorative photos. The show included both a variety show and performances featuring Michael and Elvis, which were enjoyable.

時間になると入場待ちの人達の前をスーツ姿のマネージャーに案内されて優先入場。
グリーンルームでカクテルと記念写真を撮り、舞台裏でも衣装を借りて記念写真を撮りました。
バックステージツアー楽しいです。
テーブルはステージ前で、食事も美味しかった。
記念のお祝いケーキを別注しましたが食べきれず、ケーキＢＯＸに入れてもらい持ち帰りしました。
ショーの終了後も沢山記念写真をとりました。
ショーもフラショーもあり、マイケルやエルビスもありで楽しかったです。

We used the service as a couple last December. The weather was a bit cloudy, which was a little disappointing, but the catamaran yacht racing across the sea felt great. I think it would have been even more enjoyable if we had a bit more time to relax out in the open sea.

昨年の12月に夫婦で利用しました。
天気が曇り気味だったので 少し残念でしたが、海を疾走するカタマランヨットは 気持ち良かったです。
沖で もう少し のんびりできる時間があったら もっと楽しかったと思います。

Everything was awesome! Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Burgers were good too.

This tour was absolutely amazing. Our pilot Chris was fantastic and our entire family enjoyed the experience. I am terrified of heights however I would highly recommend this tour as a must do when visiting Honolulu.

The fireworks were shorter than I expected (about 5 minutes), so I thought it might not have been necessary to take the boat just for that. However, the atmosphere on the boat with the dining, dancing, and performances, as well as the night view, was very nice. I got seasick as soon as we boarded and couldn't move from my seat much, but the staff was very attentive and considerate. They took photos during boarding and would come around to sell them later. We decided to have the data sent to us via email, but there was no Wi-Fi on the boat, so I couldn't confirm the data reception. Later, it turned out that the data hadn't been sent, but I consulted with VELTRA, and they were able to send it to me after I returned to Japan. I was very grateful for their help. I think it's better to receive the photos in physical form.

予想していたよりも、花火は短かったので（５分くらい）、わざわざ花火のために船に乗らなくても良かったかなと思います。ただ、船上でのお食事や、踊りや演奏など、夜景など雰囲気はとても良かったです。乗船してすぐに船酔いしてしまい、ほとんど席から動くことはできなくなりましたが、スタッフの方たちは、いろいろ気にかけて下さいました。また、乗船時に写真を撮り、後で売りに来ます。私たちはデータのみメール送信してもらうことにしましたが、船内にwifiがなくデータ受信が確認できませんでした。あとで、送られていないことが判明しましたが、VELTRAの方に相談して、日本に帰国してからデータを送ってもらうことができました。VELTRAの方にも大変お世話になりました。写真は、やはり実物で受け取ったほうが良いと思いました。

This was by far the highlight of our trip. If you want to really see all of Oahu do it from the air. Our pilot Darren was terrific! I was seriously thinking about booking again for the next day....it’s that much fun.

First time booking a tour when visiting Oahu and was pleased with this company. Price was very reasonable especially because it includes transportation and advance tickets to USS Arizona. Bus was very spacious & clean & comfortable & on time! Our driver, John, was very pleasant & professional. Knocked off 1 star because I wish there was more time spent touring downtown. I thought this tour included Chinatown but we didn't even get close nor was it even mentioned. Honestly, Honolulu is not so big that more time can't be spent exploring. Overall, a very nice experience, mahalo!

A fun couple of hours snorkelling. Its expensive but enjoyable and memorable

The authentic hula is truly wonderful. The powerful fire dance, delicious food, and I really felt that I had come to Hawaii.
The couple sitting next to us, Mr. and Mrs. J from Montana, were very friendly. We chatted using a mobile translator, laughed, and had a really enjoyable luxurious time.

やっぱり本場のフラは素敵です。迫力のファイヤーダンス、美味しい食事、と、ああハワイに来たんだな、と実感しました。
お隣に座った、モンタナから来られたJさんご夫婦はとてもフレンドリーな方でした。携帯の翻訳でおしゃべりをして、笑って、本当に楽しい豪華な時間を過ごさせていただきました。

Loved it! We saw turtles, dolphins, tons of fish and the wide open sea!

There were no Japanese people other than us, but the atmosphere was enjoyable with families, couples, and people from various countries. The price included two free drinks, but we were told that there was no charge for the third drink, making it all-you-can-drink. Just make sure not to forget to give a tip to the staff instead of paying the bill. The sunset was wonderful, and I thought the night view after sunset was worth a million dollars.

日本人は我々以外居なかったが、家族連れやカップル、いろんな国からの人達で楽しい雰囲気だった。
代金には2フリードリンクでしたが、3杯目からも代金は要らないと言われ、飲み放題でした。
ただ代金の支払いの代わりにスタッフにチイップを渡すのは忘れないように。
サンセットは素晴らしく、日没後の夜景も100万ドルの価値があると思いました。

I had a very good seat right in front of the show stage, which allowed me to enjoy the performance up close and fully experience the Hawaiian atmosphere. The performers also came down to the audience to shake hands and distribute gifts, showing great hospitality, which made it a lot of fun. The fire dance was intense enough to feel the heat of the flames, and it was impressive and entertaining! After the show, I was able to take photos with the performers as well. Thank you very much.

席がショーステージの目の前で、非常に良い席だったため、間近でパフォーマンスを見ることができ、ハワイ感を満喫することができました。
パフォーマーの方々も客席まで降りてきて握手をして下さったりプレゼントを配っていたりなど、サービス精神が高く、とても楽しかったです。
ファイヤーダンスは火の熱さを感じるほどで迫力もあり、面白かったです！
ショーの後はパフォーマーの方々と写真を撮ることもできました。ありがとうございました。

This was my second time participating. When I woke up in the morning… it was raining! I hoped it would stop soon, and after about an hour and a half on the bus, we arrived at the boat dock. On the boat, I first enjoyed Leonard's "Malasada" and chatted with the staff while heading to the sandbar… Unfortunately, the rain didn't stop, but we were welcomed by sea turtles and pufferfish. We walked (or maybe strolled?) in the water up to our thighs and took lots of photos… Then, it was finally time for snorkeling. After receiving instructions on how to snorkel, we formed a line with the other participants and explored underwater. Despite the rain, we were lucky to see many fish. After that, it was lunchtime! Taking advantage of the staff's words, "You can have as many servings as you want!", I enjoyed delicious kalbi and fruits until I was full. At the end, when they asked, "Are there any repeaters?", I raised my hand and received a cute bag with Captain Bruce's logo. It was a fun and delicious tour, and I even got a souvenir, so I highly recommend this option. I definitely want to try it for a third time, and I hope for good weather. Thank you to Captain and the staff for their kindness.

２度目の参加です。朝起きると…なんと雨降り！　すぐに上がってくれると期待しながら、バスに１時間半ほど揺られて船乗り場に到着です。　船上でまずレナーズの”マラサダ”をいただき、スタッフさんのおしゃべりを楽しみながらサンドバーへ…　　残念ながら雨は止みませんでしたが、ウミガメさんとフグの歓迎を受けました。　　太ももくらいまでの海を散歩(？)したり、写真をいっぱい撮ってもらったり…　　そして、いよいよシュノーケルです。シュノーケルの仕方の説明を受け、参加者で列を作って海の中を探検しました。　雨にもかかわらず、たくさんのお魚さんたちを見ることができラッキーでした。　その後、ランチタイム！　「何度でもお変りしていいよ！」のスタッフさんの言葉に甘え、おいしいカルビやフルーツなどお腹いっぱいいただきました。　最後に「リピーターさんはいますか？」と聞かれたので、手を挙げるとキャプテンブルースのロゴ入りのかわいいバッグをいただきました。　　楽しくて、美味しいツァーの上、お土産までいただき、ほんとにお勧めのオプションです。　是非３度目も挑戦したいですが、天候に恵まれるといいなと思います。　キャプテンはじめ、スタッフさん、親切にしていただきありがとうございました。

I was looking forward to the blue sky and blue sea, but...
I was really disappointed by the terrible weather.
The rain and the extreme cold even made me feel unwell...
Later, when I was talking to a local taxi driver, he sympathized with me, saying it was unfortunate to go during a time of heavy rain that happens once every ten years.
Well, it was disappointing, but since it's nature, there's nothing we can do about it.
However, the staff must have been cold too, yet they worked hard to cheer us up by getting into the sea with bright smiles.
This time, the weather was the worst, but the tour itself was really great, and if I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to try again.
After all, it's a wonderful opportunity to experience such amazing nature.

This time I give it two stars, but if the weather had been good, it would have been five stars.

青い空、青い海を期待しての参加だったのに・・・
最悪の天気でガッカリでした。
雨と、あまりの寒さに体調までくずし・・・
後日、地元のタクシーの運転手と話しをしていたところ、10年に一度の大雨みたいな時に行くなんて残念だったね、と同情されました。
まあ、残念ではありましたが、これも自然相手なので仕方がないな、と思うしかありませんね。
しかしスタッフの人達も寒かったはずなのに、一緒に海に入り明るい笑顔で盛り上げてくれるなど一生懸命に頑張っておられました。
今回は、天気の都合で最悪でしたが、ツアー事態は大変良く、またハワイに行く機会が有りましたら、絶対再チャレンジしたいと思います。
なんと言ってもすばらしい自然に触れられるのですからね。

今回は星2つですが、天気さえよければ5つ星です。

The food was only ok. Service was very good. show was great! We had some wind which made some waves, so the boat was rocking a bit. Our server came around to ask if anyone was feeling seasick. Thankfully, no one in our group was.
