The funniest crew ever! They made sure everyone had a good time and being in the splash zone was a blast. Amazing view of Diamond Head and more. So much room to move around onboard and the entire cruise was just overall fun and relaxing!

The dolphin tour we initially planned was suddenly canceled three days before departure, so I quickly searched online and found this tour. There were similar sailing options, but since we were staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village, we decided on this tour. I felt reassured that VELTRA confirmed the reservation at the time of booking.
On the day of the tour, it rained in the morning... I thought it might get canceled, but by the afternoon, the rain cleared, and we departed from the beach as scheduled! Once we were out at sea, we set the sails and let the wind and waves guide us... At this point, the refreshing feeling was indescribable! The view from the sea of Waikiki and Diamond Head was also amazing. There was only one other family besides us participating, so we were able to take our time taking photos and videos on board. The taste of beer on the water was the best.
The captain and staff were very friendly, and they provided explanations in Japanese on board.
We thoroughly enjoyed the one-hour sailing. We didn't see any dolphins, but we were very satisfied. (o^-^o)
当初予定していたドルフィンツアーが出発3日前に突然の中止になり 急遽ネット検索し、このツアーにたどり着きました。同じ様なセーリングもあったのですが ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジに宿泊していたのでこのツアーに決めました。VELTRAは申し込と同時に予約確定か否かが分かるので安心しました。
当日は朝から雨・・これはcancelになるかと思いきや午後には雨も上り予定通りビーチから出発❗沖に出ると帆を張り風任せ 波任せ・・ここまでくると何とも言えない爽快感デス❗海から見るワイキキからダイヤモンドヘッド迄の景色も素晴らしかった。参加者は私達の他にファミリーが1組のみ・・船上ではゆったり写真や動画を撮る事が出来ました。海上でのビールの味も最高
キャプテンを始めstaffはとてもフレンドリー 船上では 日本語で説明してくれます。
1時間のセーリングを満喫しました。イルカは見られなかったけど大満足しました。(o^-^o)

I boarded with my aunts who are nearly 80 years old. I was worried about whether it would be okay for seniors, so I hesitated to sign up, but there was no severe rocking, and it was a relaxed cruise. The view of Honolulu from the sea was refreshing, and the breeze felt nice. I'm glad I went, but I really wish we could have gone a bit further out where dolphins might be.
80近い叔母たちと乗船しました。高齢者も大丈夫か不安で申し込みを迷ってましたが、激しい揺れもなく、ゆったりとしたクルーズでした。海からホノルルの景色が新鮮で風も気持ちよく、乗って良かったですが、もうちょっとほんとにイルカがいそうな沖まで行きたかったな。

We had a really nice time. Saw some sea turtles and some fish. Unfortunately it was windy and a boat of scuba divers scared off the fish and turtles or should I say made it hard to keep up with them. The crew was completely awesome. The sail to the other side of Diamond Head was amazing. We had a really good time.

I couldn't see sea turtles on the tour, but I was very satisfied to see many here. If you can swim, please consider renting or bringing your own fins. It seems to be a diving spot, and if you can dive to about 5 to 6 meters, you can see a variety of colorful fish. The area near the surface is full of black fish, so if you're confident in your swimming, give it a try. The staff was friendly, which was great.
海亀を見るツアーで見れなかったのですが、こちらで、いっぱい見れて大満足です。泳げる方は、是非フィンをレンタルもしくは、持参して下さい。ダイビングスポットらしく、5〜6m潜れれば、色とりどりの魚が見れます。海面付近は黒い魚だらけなので、泳ぎに自信のある人はチャレンジしてみて下さい。スタッフもフレンドリーな感じで良かったです。

We participated as a family of four, and while the food was delicious, I felt it was a bit expensive for the content of the dishes. Also, the venue was hard to find, and it took a while to reach the elevator! The show was in the front row, so it was powerful and truly impressive. I still enjoy watching the video. My grandchild was thrilled to have their favorite turtle tattooed on their arm. We had a wonderful night in Hawaii!

Unfortunately our scheduled Friday night cruise was cancelled due to rough conditions. The staff were fantastic to reschedule a daytime cruise for us on Sunday since we were leaving the next Thursday. The boat crew were very friendly, informative, safe and competent. We managed to see some green sea turtles and view the island scenery from the water. We were able to capture some wonderful photos to remind us of our visit to Oahu.

I always wanted to check out the Turtle Canyon, and, on this particular trip, I was able to. My only complaint was that it was on the western edge of Waikiki Beach, which was somewhat inconvenient. In a perfect world, it would have been placed in the center of Waikiki's hotel row. I boarded the catamaran and was greeted by a very friendly and personable crew. Once on board, the staff gave us a safety briefing, then explained the protocol for snorkeling the area. Once we arrived at our destination, the captain dropped anchor and the group was off. It was not long before someone spotted some turtles. All of us watched in awe as we observed their underwater universe. We were in the water quite a while before the captain signaled us to come aboard. Then, we were treated to a magnificent sailing past Diamond Head and around Waikiki Beach. Between the snorkeling (an excellent exercise for me), the turtles and the sail, it was a perfect afternoon for me. I was back in time to go with my friend for evening entertainment. This is one of the top three activities you must do before you leave Hawaii. It is truly a magical day!

As soon as we came upstairs to the luau, we were promptly met by the luau staff and directed to our table. On the way there, the dancers greeted us with leis and we received welcome Mai Tais. They have regular and virgin Mai Tais, which were good! Our drinks were never empty and the buffet line went smooth. Try the salad, chicken, and the poi - an excellent combination! The best dessert was the haupia and I also tried some bread pudding - both were very tasty. The show started with the MC singing a beautiful rendition of an American melody in Hawaiian verse. The dancers were excellent and the whole show is well worth seeing if you are in Waikiki.

We went snorkeling as a family for the first time in Hawaii. Since the boat departs right in front of the hotel, you can easily enjoy it without having to go all the way to the North Shore. What surprised me was seeing a group of sea turtles swimming right in front of us. Even without snorkeling, the exhilarating feeling of sailing with the wind filling the sails was refreshing.
ハワイでは初めて家族でシュノーケリングしました。出船がホテルの目の前からなのでノースショアなどわざわざ行かなくてもお手軽に楽しめます。驚いたのは、ウミガメが目の前を群れなして泳ぐ姿が観れたこと。シュノーケリングしなくても帆に風をいっぱいに受けての疾走は爽快でした。

I participated during a company trip. For those who know Presley, it must be irresistible! I also enjoyed it since Michael Jackson and Celine Dion are from my generation. The dining area is on the first floor, with one drink included (cocktail show) on the second floor, and the show only is at the back of the second floor. Even with a last-minute entry, I was in the second row from the front on the second floor. If you enter early, the front row would be... I think it would be fun. Note: The air conditioning is effective, so it's better to have something to wear.

I was attracted to the fact that it wasn't an ordinary show, so I made a reservation. I was really excited to see the impersonators of Michael Jackson and Celine Dion! However, I was disappointed that Lady Gaga, who was mentioned in the reviews, didn't show up. Since Elvis Presley is from a different generation, I couldn't really connect with him. I was unsure about including dinner, but we ended up just reserving seats.
Even from the second floor, you can enjoy the show enough, and I had the impression that having dinner in that place might be a bit too distracting, so in the end, I’m glad we chose this plan!
普通のフラショーではないところに惹かれて予約しました。マイケル・ジャクソンやセリーヌ・ディオンのそっくりさんにはテンション上がりました‼が、口コミにあったレディー・ガガは出てこなくて残念。。エルビス・プレスリーは世代ではないのでイマイチぴんとこず、、ディナー付か迷いましたが、私たちは席だけの予約にしました。
二階席でも十分楽しめるし、あの場所でご飯は少々落ち着かなさそうだな、、という印象で結果的にはこちらのプランでよかったです!!

This is my third time riding this during the day, and I really love it! Rather than the calm atmosphere of the sunset, it's the best to splash through the waves and run while getting wet and squealing with excitement! Now, I finally feel like, "Ah, I've come to Hawaii!" I definitely recommend this activity to everyone around me. As long as it doesn't rain, you can truly enjoy Hawaii with the blue sea, blue sky, and refreshing breeze.
日中乗るのはこれで3回目ですが、これは本当に気持ちよくて大好きです!
サンセットの落ち着いた雰囲気よりも、わざと波しぶきをあげて進み、波に濡れてキャーキャー騒ぎながら走るのが最高です!
いまではこれに乗ってようやく、「あ〜、ハワイに来たなぁ」と感じるくらいになりました♪
周囲にも断然オススメしているアクティビティーです。
雨さえ降らなければ、青い海と青い空とさわやかな風とで、本当にハワイを満喫できます。

As it was a traditional show, there were a lot of people watching. I'm not sure if reservations are absolutely necessary, but I think the day we went it was fully booked. The show was quite impressive, and I believe it's worth seeing at least once. However, being outdoors, it is very much affected by the weather, which is a downside. We watched it in the rain, which was quite disappointing. That said, there's nothing we can do about the weather, so for those interested, I definitely recommend it!
伝統的なショウだけあって見る人は大勢いました。
予約が絶対必要かは分かりませんが、僕たちが行った日は満席だったと思います。
ショウもなかなか迫力のあるもので、一度は見ても損しないと思います。
ただ、屋外なだけあって天候にとても左右されるのが難点です。
僕たちは降ったり止んだりの雨の中で見てたので、それがとても残念でした。

While the activity itself was good and the captain and crew were attentive....the travel arrangements were subpar and caused eight of us to squeeze into vehicles not meant to transport that many people. The other tour participants ranged from families with small children to young adults who called it a "booze cruise" .... I would suggest that the tours be advertised as either "family friendly" or a "party tour", which is one that freely hands out alcohol to young folks who are interested in partying. Having tours designated as such would allow the people seeking the particular type of activity to choose which tour to sign up for, the company can have it both ways. Overall, we enjoyed the activity ... Just not all of our fellow passengers.
