Waikiki Fireworks Sail & Honolulu Booze Cruise with Drinks Included - Holokai Catamaran

Probably the best way to see Friday night fireworks!

Reviewed by: Lisa Macklem

Our Captain Ryan and bartender Phillippe were great. Nice way to see the fireworks. We weren't interested in drinking, but the bar was open.

The small boat was disappointing, and the food was cheap. 小さいボートで食事もチープでガッカリでした

Reviewed by: VOXY38

I was expecting a ship for about 100 people, but it turned out to be a boat for about 30 people. The food tasted good, but there were few options and it felt cheap for the price. Alcohol was unlimited up to two drinks, but for those who don't drink, it didn't matter. I was really disappointed that it was so different from what was advertised on the website.

100人程度の船と思っていると30人程度のボートでした。食事の味は良かったですが種類が少なく値段の割にチープです。アルコールも2杯までが、飲み放題となっていましたが、酒を飲まない人には関係無く、どこまでもホームページと違うのにはほんとガッカリです

90-Min Maitai Waikiki Catamaran Fireworks & Moonlight Sail with Open Bar

Great experience, friendly staff!

Reviewed by: Nicole

My sister and I booked this event to close our Hawaiian vacation. From the time we checked in to the time we walked off the boat, we enjoyed the friendliness of the staff working the event. Ian was a charismatic captain, and Alex was a very friendly bartender! Loved that this was a casual, barefoot experience. The views were great! Would absolutely recommend this event to friends and family.

Really Enjoyable with Great view of the Fireworks

Reviewed by: Denise

A really enjoyable evening - even though the weather was awful! But you can't help that!
A great view of the Fireworks and the lights along Waikiki - awesome to view a different perspective!
Super friendly staff
Plenty of drinks - was a little worried at first - I was traveling with my daughter - there was a Hen's night and a Stag night on board - thought I may have booked the wrong type of trip - a booze boat - I was really relieved - everyone was having a great time, without being stupid!
Would highly recommend this activity - it was one of our hi lights!

The fireworks were just a little. 花火は少しだけ

Reviewed by: きりちゃん

The sailing departure was at six o'clock, but it wasn't immediately followed by dinner. It was a buffet style; the taste was okay, and the variety was decent. There were many locals, and only two groups of Japanese. Of course, the announcements were only in English. The boat just wandered around Waikiki Beach. The actual fireworks started at 7:45, so it was boring until then. The boat was rocking, so I didn't want to drink too much, and I didn't eat much either. The fireworks lasted only about five minutes, just a star mine. I was disappointed because I had the impression that they would last much longer, like in Japan.

セーリングの出航は六時からでしたが、そのあとすぐディナーというほどではなく、バイキング形式、味はまあまあ、種類はそこそこ
現地の方が多く日本人は二組でした。もちろん英語での案内のみ
船はワイキキビーチをうろうろしているだけです。
実際の花火の始まりは7時45分からなので、それまで退屈
船も揺れますから酒に酔うといけないし、食べ物もたくさん食べませんでした。花火の上がる時間は5分そこそこ、スターマインが上がるだけです。
日本では長い時間あがる感覚でいたのにがっかりでした。

So much fun!

Reviewed by: JRW

My husband and I booked the fireworks sail for our last night in Hawaii and it was a great way to end our trip. The music was right, the fireworks were a beautiful sight, and my cup of maitai was constantly filled by the shirtless bartender! We would definitely book this again when we come back and maybe bring a few friends with us next time. :)

I was moved by the fireworks. 花火に感動

Reviewed by: ゆうみ

I saw the reviews and had some expectations, but there were mostly foreigners, with only two Japanese couples, including us. Everything was explained in English, so I didn't understand much (laughs), but I managed to grasp the atmosphere somehow! The foreigners were getting along well with each other on the spot! The food wasn't great, but I'm glad we went. It was a day of Hawaiian illustrations, so it became a nice memory.

レビューを見て参加したのである程度予想はしてましたが、外人さんばかりで日本人は私達夫婦入れて2組でした。すべて英語での説明でわかりませんでした(笑)でも雰囲気でなんとなく理解しましたが!!外人さん同士はその場で仲良くなっていました!!ご飯は期待できませんが行ってよかったです。ハワイラストの日だったのでいい思い出になりました。

You can see a 360-degree view of the night scenery. 夜景が360度見えます

Reviewed by: サッカー タッチャン

Since it is a yacht-type vessel that accommodates about 60 people, it offers a 360-degree view, allowing us to see the fireworks from a closer point than other vessels, making for an impressive cruise. Additionally, being a catamaran, it had less rocking, and we could enjoy the pleasant sea breeze.

約60人乗りのヨットタイプの船舶なので、360度視界が確保でき、花火のポイントにも他の船舶より近くから見ることができて、迫力満点のクルーズでした、また海面も近く双胴船のため揺れも少なく、潮風を心地よく感じました。

Fireworks over Waikiki

Reviewed by: Andy

We loved the view of fireworks over the HHW, and the Waikiki Beach skyline. After seeing the fireworks from shore, we wanted to take this trip on our return visit. It was worth it. The crew was fun and the mai tais were plentiful. Our only difficulty was finding the launch. Not being local, we weren't sure how to get to this spot. Street directions would have been helpful.

It was good. 良かったです。

Reviewed by: 水鳥拳

There were three groups of Japanese participants, and about 30 foreigners. The explanations before departure and on the boat were all in English, so I was a bit anxious and didn't understand well. However, the captain and guide spoke fluent Japanese. After explaining to the foreigners, he kindly provided various explanations to the Japanese guests, mixed with jokes. The fireworks were beautiful. The best spot is at the back of the boat. The food was also delicious.

日本人3組参加でした。他は外人30人位。出発前と、船の中の説明は、すべて英語だったので、良く分からなく、不安でしたが、なんと、船長兼ガイドが日本語ペラペラで、外人に説明後、丁寧に、日本人だけに、ジョーク交じりに、色々説明してくれました。花火綺麗です。ベスポジは船後部です。食事も美味しいです。

Waikiki Fireworks Sail & Honolulu Booze Cruise with Drinks Included - Holokai Catamaran

It was good, but not the best.

Reviewed by: ADR

I’ve done alot of catamaran ridees in waikiki as a local. This one was good, but not the best. The boat is good, the crew is great! There are many catamarans to choose from and this one would be my #2 choice. They only do either a sunset or a firework cruise, but not both, however it’s about half the price of my #1. #1 would be the Molikini friday night sunset/firework/dinner catamaran. This boat is good for the value and you will definitely enjoy it.

A disappointing tour where the pickup didn't come as requested. お迎え頼んでも来ない残念なツアー

Reviewed by: ななまさ

I made a reservation for pickup at the Ala Moana Hotel, but when the pickup time came, no one showed up. After 30 minutes, I called the tour company but couldn't get through, and 45 minutes later, I had to take a taxi to the location and barely made it onto the ship just before departure.

I recommend caution for those requesting a pickup. It was the worst experience. I would like a refund for the taxi fare.

Later, I received a contact from VELTRA, and they coordinated with the tour company to refund the taxi fare. Since I received the refund, I will revise my rating from 1 star to 3 stars.

アラモアナホテルお迎えで予約しましたが、ピックアップ時間になっても来ないため、30分後にツアー会社に電話かけても繋がらず、45分後に急遽タクシーで現地へ向かい出航寸前の船に飛び乗りました。
お迎え頼む方は注意された方が良いです。
最悪でした。
タクシー代返金して欲しいです。

後日 VELTRAから連絡があり、ツアー会社と調整いただきタクシー代の返金がありまた。
返金いただいたので評価を見直し⭐️1から3に変更します。

Awesomeness!!

Reviewed by: Pearl

My wife and I were stoked when the boat beached onto shore. It was funny initially watching folks coming off the last ride bc the waves rocked the boat and splashed onto them. But it's expected, it was fun nonetheless. We did the Fireworks ride and it was just AWESOME!!! To watch it from the ocean is definitely something everyone should experience. We'd totally do it again!

Fireworks from the cruise~ クルージングからの花火~

Reviewed by: ちゅめ

I was looking forward to the fireworks viewing event on this trip. The ship was mostly filled with foreigners, just like in other people's experiences, but since the purpose was cruising and watching fireworks, I was able to enjoy it without worrying. There were reviews saying the fireworks themselves weren't that impressive, but considering the context of watching them in Hawaii, I think they were on par with Japan's large fireworks festivals.

この旅で楽しみにしていたイベントである花火鑑賞。
船内は他の方の体験談同様、ほとんどが外国人でしたが目的はクルージング~花火だったので逆に気にせず楽しめました。
花火自他は大したものではないとのレビューもありましたが、ハワイで見るというフィルターを考えれば、日本の大きな花火大会にも引けをとらないと思いました。

  • 余談ですが、火事の現場もよくみえました。。。

It was good. 良かった

Reviewed by: さとちゃん

The highlight of the tour is the fireworks on Friday night. Everyone can enjoy them from the deck with an unobstructed view. Thanks to Captain Josh, Crew Corinne, and Lisa, we had a great time. For some reason, we were encouraged to drink plenty of alcohol (what was the two-drink limit about?).

By the way, the tour is in English. I think it's fine even for those who are not good at English as long as you follow the people around you.

Staying at Hilton Village made it convenient. It's a 54-passenger catamaran yacht. To be honest, it does sway. Depending on the weather, it could get quite rough. I think this is a matter of personal preference. My companions were upset, but we were fortunate with the weather. Also, everyone had to board barefoot, leaving shoes in a box at the pier.

There is no cooler, but since we were on the water, it wasn't hot and was actually quite pleasant. It became a great memory.

肝心のツアークライマックスは金曜日晩の花火です。これはデッキで全員文句なしに特等席で見られます。
Captain Josh & Crew Corinne とLisaのおかげで楽しく過ごせました。なぜかアルコールもふんだんに飲まされました。(2杯のリミットはなんだったんでしょうか)
ちなみに英語ツアーになります。英語苦手な方でも周りの人に合わせてれば問題ないと思います。
ヒルトンビレッジ泊だったので楽でした。
双胴船の54人乗りのヨットです。正直なところ揺れます。天候次第ではとんでもないことになるかな。ヨットだから。これは好き嫌いかなり別れると思います。同行者は怒ってましたが天候に恵まれ助かりました。また全員素足での乗船となり、埠頭のボックスに靴は預けることになります。
クーラーもありませんが海上なので暑くなくむしろ気持ち良かったです。
良い思い出になりました。
