Star of Honolulu Sunset Buffet Dinner Cruise & Polynesian Show

Amazing Cruise

Reviewed by: Sid

Amazing cruise, had a lot of fun with friends. Dance performances are really good. Not many food options for vegetarian/vegan people. I think they can even improve the quality of non-vegetarian food.

Star of Honolulu Sunset Buffet Dinner Cruise & Polynesian Show

Sorry but not good.

Reviewed by: Richard

Ride to the ship was ok. Getting onboard was good. Overall food on deck 2, roast beef menu was subpar. Not good enough to want seconds. Wife and I felt this excursion was way too long. Especially being on the water got boring and we love the water. Sorry but the entertainment was that exiting. We were just counting down the minutes to get off the ship. The staff was nice and accommodating but the overall feeling of wanting to stay on the ship died off after the first hour on board.

25th Anniversary Celebration

Reviewed by: Andrew Kaylor

Outstanding food and drink along with spectacular views of Waikiki at sunset. Service was great and the show was very upbeat and both entertaining and educational. Would do this dinner cruise on future visits. Easy to book, our bus driver was on time and educated us about different places along the way to the ship.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Night Cruise into Happiness last night with the Star of Honolulu crew and amazing entertainment
We did this cruise 41 years ago and it was just amazing then and spectacular now! The steak and lobster with the attentive crew made for a flawless experience! The main singer carried your spirit to the best times. We also loved the smooth jazz music Finally the Hawaiian dancers made us feel like true Ohana ❤️

The experience was great! The food was good and the service great. We did the 3-star dinner and it was so much fun. We did the private table upgrade, which is worth the extra cost. Also, pay a little extra to have them pick you up with their shuttle service. Overall, we highly recommend this experience!!!

I was able to see it. 見れました

Reviewed by: とみを

The boat itself is fun. You can see the whale's tail. I think you can enjoy it even if you don't understand the English commentary. There is no seasickness. You can also order drinks. I think it's a good value for the price.

船自体楽しい。鯨の尻尾がみれます。英語の解説がわからなくても楽しめると思います。船酔いはないです。ドリンクも注文できます。コスパいいと思います

We really enjoyed the this luxury trip to see the fireworks. The music, staff and yaht was great! The drinks are awesome but the food is all packaged. I recommend ear before if you are wanting something more like a dinner. Don't eat too close to the event as it is a boat tho lol. Definitely would do this again. Great for a couple or a group of friends!

Whether you can meet a whale depends on timing and luck. クジラと会えるかは時と運次第です。

Reviewed by: マサイトウ

There were no issues with the pickup from the hotel, the guidance to the boarding, or the transfer to the hotel after disembarking.

As for the whales, they would briefly appear at the surface and then dive below for about 15 minutes. Many participants were intently watching the surface of the water, and when a whale did appear, cheers erupted, with everyone shifting their gaze in that direction, repeating this process.

My initial expectation was to see the whales up close while being splashed by seawater, but it turned out to be more of a distant viewing experience. The captain made efforts to capture them on camera, but I felt that approaching this with high expectations carries significant risks.

集合ホテルからのピックアップ、乗船迄の誘導、下船後のホテルへの移動については全く問題ありませんでした。
問題のクジラですが、水面に僅かに姿を現したかと思うと、15分程度海面下に潜ってしまいます。
多数の参加者が目を凝らして海面を注視しているので、現れると歓声が上がり、そちらの方向に全員が視線を移す、と言う繰り返し。
事前のイメージでは、海水を浴びながらクジラを間近で見られる、と言うモノでしたが、かなり遠景でのウォッチングでした。
船長さんも努力下さり、何とかカメラには納められましたが、大きな期待を持って臨むにはリスクが高いと思いました。

Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are all disappointed that you weren't able to see enough whales. The captain did his best to make it happen, but we are glad you were able to see some. Please come again. We hope to have you experience many whales up close next time.

この度は私共のクルーズにお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
クジラの観測が充分に見られなかった様子でスタッフ一同残念に思っております。出来る限りのことは船長も努力しておりますが少しでも見れたことを嬉しく思います。是非またお越し下さい。次回は沢山のクジラを身近で観れたらと思います。

I was able to see it. 見れました

Reviewed by: えがちゃん

On the day of the tour, it was raining on the bus, but by the time we boarded the boat and reached the area where the whales were, the rain had stopped and the sun peeked out, which was great. The color of the sea was very beautiful.

We didn't see any large whales, but we did catch glimpses of what seemed to be a baby whale! We saw its tail several times and parts of its body, which was wonderful.

Inside the boat, snacks, light meals, and drinks were available for purchase. Since the air conditioning inside the boat was quite strong, I think it's a good idea to bring a light jacket.

I believe this is a tour that can be enjoyed by everyone, from the elderly to small children.

当日、バスの中では雨でしたが、、船に乗り鯨のいる場所につく頃には雨も止んで太陽ものぞいてくれたので良かったです。
海の色がとっても綺麗でしたよ
大きい鯨には、会えませんでしたが、、赤ちゃん鯨でしょうか?!何回も尻尾が見えたり、体の一部が見えたり良かったです。
船内では、スナックや軽食・飲み物が有料販売有りでした。
船内が冷房が強いので、、羽織るもの1枚持っていくといいと思います。
ご年配の方から小さいお子様まで、一緒に楽しむことのできるツアーだと思います

I was picked up at the Hyatt at 7:25 AM, and we arrived at 9:00 AM. My 3-year-old child got tired just from being on the bus for an hour and a half. It was disappointing that we could only see the tail this time, as it didn't leave a lasting impression on my child.

There was no validation service, and I couldn't see any whales. バリデーションサービスはなし、クジラも見れなかった

Reviewed by: リルママ

I went to the location by rental car since it was mentioned that there was a validation service. When I showed the parking ticket to the staff and asked about it, I was told that the service is not available this year. It seems there was an error in the information provided, which is disappointing.
During the cruise, I was able to enjoy taking photos of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea.
As the ship was returning to the port, there was an announcement at 9 o'clock that something would be visible, and the ship moved a bit, but then there was another announcement at 10 o'clock, unfortunately, I couldn't see it. It seemed that many others also missed it. Even if some people were able to see it, it appears that rescheduling is not guaranteed for those who couldn't, which is unfortunate.
It is very cold on the ship, so a jacket is a must.

バリデーションのサービスがあると記載されていたので、レンタカーにて現地へ向かいました。スタッフにパーキングチケットを見せて聞いたところ、今年はそのサービスはやっていないとの返答。記載内容に誤りがあるようで残念です。
乗船中は海から見るワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドを写真に撮ったりと楽しむことができました。
船が港へ戻る際9時に見えると放送があり少し船が動いたのでその後10時の方向と放送がありましたが、残念ながら見る事が出来ませんでした。他にも見れなかった方は沢山いたようでした。自身が見れなくても見ることのできた人がいればリスケジュールの保証外となるようで、残念でした。
船上はとても寒いので、上着必須です。
