Some confusion about checkin but bus was timely picking us up and dropping us off at our hotel It was magical seeing the fireworks from out at sea. I’ve seen them many time on the beach. Definitely starting a tradition. Happy New Year. Welcome to 2020

Hawaii has few Christmas illuminations. This tour guides you to places that capture the Christmas spirit, so it's quite good. The driver cheerfully hums while driving around Waikiki. You can get off at the city hall and eat malasadas, but I chose to stay on the bus and return. The area around the city hall seems small enough to explore in about 30 minutes.
ハワイはクリスマス・イルミネーションが少ない。このツアーはクリスマス感を出している箇所を案内してくれるので、それなりによい。運転手が陽気に鼻歌交りでワイキキを回ってくれる。市庁舎で下車し、マラサダを食べることもできるが、下車せず帰った。市庁舎付近は30分もあれば十分回れる程度の規模のように思えた。

This family trip was all about enjoying the classic experiences of Japan. This show was the best among them. The buffet was decent, overall good. The professional show was impressive. The location with the sunset over the ocean as a backdrop was also nice. My wife and daughter were taking lots of photos.
今回の家族旅行は日本人定番を楽しむことに。このショーはその中でも一番よかった。ブッフェは可もなく不可もなく総じて良かった。プロのショーは見ごたえもある。夕日の海が背景となるロケーションもいい。妻と娘は写真を撮りまくっていた。

We arrived at the boarding area by bus from the hotel and waited for 40 minutes, thinking we were ready to board. However, we were told to check in at the entrance of the ship! We hurried off the boat to the counter, showed our voucher, and checked in. After receiving our card, we boarded again. By that time, all the good seats were taken, and the only available spots were in a narrow area where we felt like we might fall every time the ship swayed. There were about a third of us in similar situations. The bus driver didn’t provide any explanation, it wasn’t mentioned on the voucher, and we didn’t realize it during the 40-minute wait. Hmm, the tour had a great view of the fireworks and was fantastic, but I wish there had been a bit more explanation beforehand.
ホテルからバスの迎えで乗船場へつき、40分まち、さあ乗船開始と思いきや、船の乗り口でチェックインしてくれと!慌てて船を降りてカウンターにゆき、バウチャを見せてチェックインしました。カードをもらい再度乗船。すでに良い席は全て埋まり通路のようなところで船の揺れるたびこけそうになるところしか空いてませんでした。私たちのような方は三分の1くらいおりました。バスの運転手からも説明なし、バウチャにも書いてなく、40分待ってる間も気がつきませんでした。うーん、ツアーは花火もよく見えて最高でしたが事前の説明がもう少し欲しかったかなぁ。

I took the New Year's Eve cruise on December 31st. The ship rocked quite a bit.
I didn't expect it to sway that much. I took some motion sickness medication, which helped a little.
12/31の年越しクルーズを利用しました。
かなり船が揺れた。
あそこまで揺れるとは想定してなかったです。
酔い止め薬を飲んで少し楽になりましたが。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
We are very sorry to hear that you could not fully enjoy the experience due to seasickness.
If you have another opportunity, we hope you will enjoy it next time.
All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you again.

Got to see a lovely sunset (our last in 2019) drinks were flowing and we were always asked if we wanted more, friendly staff and overall very nice experience. I'd recommend especially if anyone has no other opportunity to see a sunset from the sea or the Honolulu skyline at night from afar (looking in from the ocean).

Very hospitable crew of 3 with a great sense of humor took us on a great evening cruise with exceptionally large waves and actually put up a sail! Loved the crew, the other passengers who were interesting, and the wonderful food from local caterer. Be prepared to leave your shoes on the dock and for some water spray and wind, but also for a great sail.

Thank you for participating this time. Upon checking, it seems that an inexperienced staff member handled the situation on the day. It is true that an anchor was accidentally dropped, but that staff member has already left the company, and we are continuously training our staff and working on improvements.

The seating was at a round table for eight on the first floor, and we were seated with others. There was live music on the first floor as well, but the second floor seemed better. The meal included salad, chicken, fish, pasta, and chocolate cake, but the taste was just okay. For drinks, the buffet course charges for everything except the welcome drink. After the meal, you can freely walk around the second and third floors and the deck. The fireworks lasted for five minutes starting at 7:45. While waiting for the sunset on the second-floor deck, we even caught a glimpse of a whale for a moment.
席は一階の8人がけ丸テーブルで相席でした。一階も生演奏がありましたが、二階席の方が良さそうでした。食事は、サラダ、チキン、魚、パスタ、チョコレートケーキで、味はいまいちでした。飲み物は、buffet コースは、ウェルカムドリンク以外有料です。食事が終われば二階、三階、デッキ自由に歩き回れます。花火は、7:45分から5分間でした。二階のデッキでサンセット待ってるいるときに、鯨も一瞬見れました。

We went for my husbands birthday on 12/07/19 and it was about 20 of us so we took up the whole boat. I tipped the captain and assistant $20 if he could wait for couple of friends who were arriving late and I also offered the other 2 couples, who were not part of our group, a round of drinks if we left a bit late. They were fine with it. Once we left, all was well EXCEPT for the captains sarcasm. We were not out of hand nor too crazy for him to handle, but to treat us as if we didn’t know any better, was unacceptable. But his remarks and dry humor was the ONLY negative part of our trip. I understand he probably has to deal with drunk people everyday... but we were still paying customers and would expect to be treated like we treated him... with respect. I could imagine how he would treat other tourists who paid hundreds of dollars to take this one trip just to enjoy the sunset cruise and booze. Honestly I would probably refer to a different catamaran company or just get rid/retrain the captain on the spirit of aloha. Not the way I would represent the island.

I participated in a company trip with my colleagues! There were many people from various countries, as well as those on vacation from the mainland and newlyweds. Even though my English isn't that great, with a little help from the drinks, I was able to have enjoyable conversations and spend a fulfilling time.
I think there were various types of alcohol, but I tried a Hawaiian beer and had some sparkling wine along with something else. I don't remember it well. There is the "too much drinking = restroom problem," but don't worry, there are restrooms available!
By the time sailing was over, I had completely developed a beer belly.
I want to go again!
社員旅行に行った際、仲間と一緒に参加しました!
色々な国の方や本土から休暇で来ている方、新婚さんなどたくさんの方がいらっしゃり、英語はそれほど得意ではないけど、お酒の力もかり、楽しく会話し充実した時間を過ごせました〜。
お酒の種類は色々あったと思うけど、ハワイアンbeerを一通り飲んだのと、スパークリングワインと何かを飲みました。よく覚えてない。「飲みすぎ=トイレ問題」がありますが、トイレもついてるのでご安心を!
セーリングが終了する頃にはすっかりビール腹になりました。
また乗りたいです!

In theory this would be a great experience... but the night we went the ocean was VERY rough and both my husband and I got violently ill. The crew did their best to make us comfortable but I have to wonder why no one said anything about the possible conditions. A little warning would have been nice. (“Hey, if you’re prone to motion sickness we would recommend you not attend tonight due to giant waves, etc.” or “Do not drink mai tais if you are concerned about being sick.”)
Also my 8 year old was scared out of his mind...so leave the kids at home. And take Dramamine. Better yet, watch the sunset from the beach.
My husband recovered right away but I was sick for 24 hours!! I couldn’t get the rocking sensation out of my mind, and ate nothing but saltines the next day. I really had no idea this would be possible from a 90 min boat ride. (To the captains credit he brought the boat in early because it was just too rough. I still wonder why we went out in the first place!)

It was my first dinner cruise in high waves and strong winds. Ten minutes after departure, I immediately got seasick... I ended up stuck at the back of the deck, feeling miserable the whole time. Because of that, I decided to buy a commemorative photo, but I forgot to pick it up, so I just ended up paying for it. I think it was distributed at the seats, but I wish I had received a notification... I will never go again.
波が高く風も強い中、初のディナークルーズでした。
出港して10分、即船酔い…結局ずっとデッキのうしろで地獄絵図…
そんなこともあり、記念写真を購入したのですが受け取るのを忘れてしまい、お金を払っただけになってしまいました。
多分、席に配られていたと思うのですが連絡欲しかったです…

It was amazing. Despite the bad weather, relatively low temperatures, and some rain, the fireworks were perfectly visible from the sea. The reflection of the fireworks on the water was beautiful! I was shivering along the way, but I enjoyed a Mai Tai because it was delicious, and they played great music to keep the atmosphere lively. Even though it was cold, I was sleepy, and the rain was intense, I couldn't feel anything but joy. I'm grateful for the wonderful crew who were so considerate, and for the cheerful and lovely people I shared the experience with. I want to go again!
最高でした。悪天候で、気温わりと低く、途中雨にも見舞われましたが、花火はバッチリ海上から見えました。水面に映る花火がまたキレイ❣️途中ガタガタ震えながら、美味しいのでマイタイを呑んでいましたが、上がる曲をかけてくれたり、盛り上げ上手で最高。寒いし、眠いし、雨は凄いし、帰りたくなりそうなところ、楽しい以外に感じられませんでした。気配りが素晴らしいクルーに感謝。乗り合わせた仲間、陽気なステキな人達に感謝。また行きたいな。

Even though I was around the Sheraton Hotel with plenty of time, I couldn't get through from the Sheraton to the beach, which made me really anxious... The directions were hard to understand. In the end, I walked along the beach walk to the ocean side, turned right, walked to the end of the road, and took the path on the right that leads to the beach, where the boarding area was! I made it just in time.
Before boarding, I took some photos, and since the waves hit below the knees, wearing shorts was definitely the right choice. I enjoyed the sunset while sipping on a Mai Tai, with music playing loudly. It was the perfect optional tour for the last day of this trip!
余裕をもって乗り場のあるシェラトンホテル周辺にいたのに、シェラトンからビーチの通り抜けができず、焦りまくり…。道順の説明が分かりづらかった。結局、ビーチウォークを海側まで歩き、右折し、道の終わりまで歩いて、右手にビーチにでる小道を行けば、乗り場がありましたよ!ギリギリで間に合いました。
乗船前に写真を撮り、乗り込むのですが、膝下は波がかかるので、ショートパンツで正解でした。
マイタイを飲みながら、サンセットを楽しむ。しかもガンガン音楽を流して。今回の旅の最終日にぴったりのオプショナルツアーでした!

I participated with my mother and aunt (both in their 60s). We enjoyed the sunset over the ocean while it was still light, and by the time we returned, we could see the night view of Waikiki from the sea. The duration was about 1 hour and 30 minutes, which might feel long for those who are not used to being on a boat, but I think it allows you to fully enjoy the waters of Hawaii.
母親と叔母(共に60代)を連れて参加しました。明るいうちから、海上でサンセット、戻る頃には海からワイキキの夜景が見れました。時間は1:30程で船に慣れてない人は長いかなと感じますが、ハワイの海を充分に堪能できると思います。
