All Reviews for Honolulu Nightlife & Things to Do

The view of Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach from the ocean side was amazing! The Mai Tai was delicious too! We were blessed with great weather, and the sunset was very beautiful. I participated with eight colleagues from work, and everyone was satisfied. I would love to join again when I go to Hawaii.

海側からの、ダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキビーチの眺めは最高でした！マイタイも美味しかった！
お天気にも恵まれ、夕陽もとても綺麗でした。
会社の同僚たちと８人で参加しましたが、みんな満足していました。
ハワイに行ったら、また参加したいと思います。

Since we went to Hawaii for relaxation rather than activities, this was the best attraction for us. Although there were no Japanese participants, there were no situations that particularly required language skills. The staff is kind, so I hope you can participate without worry. The view of the sea and Hawaii from the front of the boat, along with the coolness and beauty unique to the evening, is exquisite! The all-you-can-drink option is also wonderful. I think it would be even more enjoyable with a partner, spouse, or friends.

アクティビティ目的でなく、のんびり目的でハワイに行ったので、我々にとってはこれが一番のアトラクションでした。日本人の参加はないものの特に語学力が必要な場面はないです。スタッフさんも優しいので、心配なく参加してほしいです。船の先頭から眺める海とハワイの眺望、それから夕方ならではの涼しさと美しさは絶品です！飲み放題なのも素敵です。彼氏彼女やご夫婦、友達でいくと、より一層楽しめると思います。

Our family’s first trip to Hawaii and our first sunset cruising!
At first, we were the only Japanese people on board, surrounded by foreigners, and with unlimited drinks, I was a bit anxious and tense about what kind of lively atmosphere the boat would have...
However, once the cruising started, everyone was friendly, and the atmosphere was free and enjoyable for everyone, making it an incredible experience!
We were blessed with wonderful weather and got to see a breathtaking sunset.
As the sun turned into a sunset, we witnessed the moments before it sank, the moment it sank, and after it sank... and then the night view. It was truly moving, and we had a fantastic experience.
To see such postcard-like scenery live, and so close over the ocean... plus, we even saw a rainbow in the distance later on, which was overwhelming.
This has definitely become an activity I want to participate in again when I come back to Hawaii!

家族で初ハワイ、初のサンセットクルージング！
最初は日本人が私たちだけで、外人さんばっかりでお酒飲み放題だったので、どんなノリノリな船になってしまうのか…と、少し不安と緊張感がありました。。
が、いざクルージングがスタートすると、みんなフレンドリーだし、全員が楽しめる、自由な雰囲気で最高に楽しめました！！
そして、天気にすごく恵まれた日で、最高に感動するサンセットを見ることができました。
太陽が夕日になってきて、沈む前、沈む瞬間、沈んだあと、、そして夜景。これは本当に感動もので、良いものを体験させて頂きました。
あんな絵はがきみたいな光景を、生で、しかも海の上のあんな近くで見られるなんて、、しかも、途中から遠くの方で虹を見ることも出来て、感無量でした。
次ハワイに来ても、絶対に参加したいアクティビティになりました！！

I participated in the 5 PM departure.
Spending the evening on the sea in Waikiki was wonderful.
Seeing Diamond Head from the ocean gives a true sense of Waikiki. Also, as the sunset illuminated the sky, the lights of the Waikiki hotels gradually turned on, creating a beautiful scene.
I would like to participate again.

17時 出航の便に参加しました
海の上で過ごすワイキキの夕暮れは、気持ちよかったです
海側から見るダイヤモンドヘッドはワイキキらしさを感じます。また、夕日に照らされて刻々とワイキキのホテルに明かりが灯り綺麗です。
また、参加したいと思います

We are family of 5, 5, 8 and 10 year old kids. We all loved it! Easy check in, quick boarding, friendly staff that was very accomodating. Would definitely do it again.

We really enjoyed our sunset cruise and true to say one of the best maitai cocktails we ever had!

I participated on September 19. It felt like there was light rain every morning and evening, but before the sunset, there was light rain on the mountain side, and several rainbows appeared! We were also able to see a rainbow from the sea near Diamond Head. The sunset was beautiful, but unfortunately, we couldn't see the green flash. There were only two couples of Japanese people, my husband and I, and another newlywed couple. The atmosphere on the boat was very nice, and it was fun with unlimited Mai Tais and other drinks.

9/19に参加しました。毎日、朝夕に小雨が降る感じでしたが、夕陽が沈む前に山側に小雨が降り、虹が何箇所か出現！ダイヤモンドヘッド側の海上からも虹を見ることが出来ました。夕陽も綺麗でしたが残念ながらグリーンフラッシュを見ることは出来ませんでした。日本人は私達夫婦と新婚夫婦の2組みだけ。マイタイ他が飲み放題で船上はとても良い雰囲気で楽しかったです。

The scenery was breathtaking. One of the highlights of my entire trip to Hawaii.

I arrived first thinking I would get a good seat and waited in line for an hour, yet I was the last to get my meal, which is unbelievable!!! If you're going to serve meals in order of the tables, shouldn't you let the tables that arrived early go first? I had high expectations thinking it was Hilton, but I never want to go back again! I wanted to stay at Hilton too, but that's enough!!

良い席をと思い一番に行き、1時間も並んだにも関わらず、食事にありつけたのが一番最後とは有り得ない!!!(￣ヘ￣メ)（｀Δ´）テーブルの順番に食事を取りに行くんだったら、早く来たテーブルの順番に食事を取りに行かすべきではないでしょうか？ヒルトンだと思ってとても期待していたのに、もう二度といきたくありません！ヒルトンも泊まりたかったけど、もういいです!!

This was my second time, and I was really impressed by how similar they looked. It was my first time seeing Lady Gaga, and she was just like the real thing. I thought Michael looked a bit older, but he was still great. Next time I go, I want to see a different star's show!

今回で2回目 でしたが、ホントにそっくりで感激しました。レディガガは初めてでしたが、そっくりでした。マイケルは、ちょっと年をとったな～とおもいましたけど、やっぱり良かったでーす。次行くときは、また違ったスターのショーを見たいですね(^o^)

I thought a smaller boat, where you can feel closer to the sea, would be better than a large dinner cruise ship, so I chose this one. It was just as impressive as I imagined, and the sunset reflecting on the water was beautiful! I was also able to take photos of surfers nearby from the same eye level. The boat's rocking was not as bad as I had worried, and I didn't get seasick.

The meeting point is a bit hard to find, so I recommend checking it out in advance on Google Maps.

ディナークルーズ船のような大きな船ではなく、
海が近く感じられる小さな船が良いと思い、こちらにしました。
想像通り迫力があり、水面に反射する夕陽が綺麗でとてもよかったです！
サーファー達が近くでサーフィンする様子を同じくらいの目線の高さで写真に撮ることもできました。
心配していた船の揺れもそれほどでもなく、船酔いもせずにすみました。

集合場所が少しわかりづらいので、
グーグルマップで事前に下調べしておくと良いと思います。

This was my first time participating. Just like the reviews said, there were only me and one other Japanese group, and the rest were Europeans and Americans. It was fun with cheerful music and wonderful scenery. Although it was cloudy, I was able to see the sunset, and the view of the hotels in Waikiki from the sea was refreshing.

今回初めて参加しました。口コミ通り、日本人は私ともう一組だけで、あとは欧米人の方たちでした。陽気な音楽と素晴らしい景色で楽しかったです。曇っていましたがサンセットも見れ、海から見るワイキキのホテル群も新鮮でした。

The sunset from the sea in Waikiki was amazing. On the day of the cruise, I thought it might be canceled due to rain in the morning, but the rain stopped about two hours before departure, and we were able to see a beautiful sunset. I only knew about large ship cruises for sunsets, but the catamaran was just the right size and had a friendly atmosphere, making it very enjoyable. The Mai Tai was also very delicious. I definitely want to see the sunset again next time.

ワイキキの海からのサンセットは最高でした。
当日は、朝から雨で中止ではないかと思っていましたが、、、出航２時間前ぐらいから雨も上がり最高の夕日が見れました。
サンセットと言えば大きな船のクルーズしか知らなかったのですが、カタマラン号は丁度良い大キさで和気あいあいとした感じでとても楽しかったです。
マイタイもとても美味しく頂きました。
次回も是非サンセットを見たいです。

I had always booked dinner cruises, but I felt disappointed that the cruising would end without seeing the ocean views. That's when I found the sunset sailing. It was our honeymoon, and since it was my husband's first time in Hawaii, I decided to go for it and make a reservation. The meeting place was a bit hard to find, so I was glad I took a walk beforehand to scout it out. You can access it by going through the path between the Sheraton Hotel and Halekulani. Other than us, there were only two other Japanese participants, and the rest were foreigners ( *´꒳`* ). I generally like to visit places with fewer Japanese people when I travel abroad, so I had no hesitation in joining. It's great that Mai Tais are all-you-can-drink! There is a restroom, but I heard it's small, so I didn't drink too much and enjoyed the sunset and the views from the boat while sipping on soft drinks. There is some rocking. When the waves are high, it can be hard to stand. The foreigners were moving around while standing, but since Japanese people tend to be smaller, it's better to stay seated. At sunset, we were in the best position on the water, unfurling the blue sail and turning off the engine to sail only with the wind. The sunset spread out before us, and we had Diamond Head all to ourselves ♡ It was a wonderful tour, and I will participate again!

いつもディナークルーズを予約していたのですが、海の風景を見ずにクルージングが終わってしまうことに残念さを感じていました。そんな時にサンセットセーリングを見つけました。新婚旅行、旦那さんは初めてのハワイだし思い切って予約してみました。集合場所が分かりにくい所にあり事前に散歩がてら探しておいてよかったと思いました。シェラトンホテルとハレクラニの間の小道を入ると行けました。それ以外は日本人の参加者は私達を含め2組で他は外人です( *´꒳`* )元々海外に来たら日本人の少ない場所に行くのが好きなので抵抗もなく参加できました。マイタイが飲み放題なのも嬉しいですね！トイレもありますが、狭いと聞いたのでガブ飲みせず、ソフトドリンクも飲みながらサンセットと船の上からの景色を楽しみました。揺れはあります。波が高い時は立ってられないくらい揺れます。外人は立ってわちゃわちゃ動いてましたが、日本人は小柄なので座ってた方がいいですよ。サンセットの時刻には海のベストポジションでブルーの帆をひらいてエンジンを止めて帆だけで進むんです。目の前に広がるサンセット、ダイヤモンドヘッドを独り占め♡素敵なツアーでした。また参加します！

This April marks my second repeat visit this year. While a pricey dinner cruise is nice, for me, the open-air catamaran cruise swaying with the Hawaiian waves is the best. Unfortunately, there were many clouds, so the sunset wasn't beautiful, but that's part of the charm of travel. I definitely want to repeat this again next time. As I mentioned last time, there are proper restrooms, so you can rest assured...

今年４月に引き続き、今年２回目のリピートです。
高額なお金を払うディナークルーズも良いですが、私には、オープンエアで、ハワイの波に揺られるカタマランクルーズは最高です。
残念ながら、雲が多くてサンセットは綺麗に見れませんでしたが、それも旅の醍醐味。
次回も、またリピートしたいと思います。
前回も紹介しましたが、トイレはちゃんとありますので、ご安心を・・・・

Missed the boat by 5 minutes. Couldn't find exact location. Tried to move the tour to another night but no response or effort. Didn't get refunded and over all lost $200. We are tourists and made an honest mistake on our end. Wishes there was an effort on there end.

We had an awesome time and we'll be back next year.

I participated with a friend. It was a pleasant cruise that really made me feel like I was in Hawaii. There were no staff members who spoke Japanese, but they would greet us using the Japanese words they knew. The music, the refreshing evening sea breeze, and the sunset created a luxurious experience.

友人と2人で参加しました。ハワイに来たなぁって感じがする気持ちいいクルーズでした。日本語が話せるスタッフはいませんが、知ってる日本語の単語で声をかけてくれたりします。音楽と夕方の気持ちよい海風とサンセットは贅沢な時間でした。

Overall it was a fun activity. Clean boat, good drinks, friendly staff, etc. However it was a bit presumptuous on their part to require your picture be taken for an upsell opportunity before you could board the boat. They had all the guests lined up for pictures like grade school photo day. Cheesy! Then of course after the cruise came the sales pitch the second you stepped back on shore. I was literally chased down the beach....LOL. Well it is the 21st century now, so many of us just used our smart phones instead at no additional cost. Other than this odd irritation I had an enjoyable cruise. Thank you.

The Rock-a-Hula Show was fun!! I thought it would just be an impersonation, but the quality was very high and I was satisfied. The food was described as delicious, so I had high expectations, but it felt like what you might find on a typical tour. It might be nice to have partitioned plates. The hula was just okay.

ロックアフラショーは、楽しかったです!!
ただのモノマネかと思っていましたが、とてもクオリティも高く満足でした。
ごはんは、美味しいと書いてあったので期待しすぎてしまいましたがツアーによくありそうな感じでした。仕切りのお皿があるといいかもしれないです。
フラは、普通かなー。

My husband had a great time during the Fireworks cruise. Even though it felt like a lot of people were on board, everyone had a great vantage point for the fireworks show. Afterwards, we enjoyed boating, the views, and unlimited maitais (as well as other alcoholic drinks). The crew was friendly and check in on us, check in/check out was easy, but I would recommend bringing a light sweater because it does get chilly at night!

This is my third time in Hawaii, and I attended the show on the last night. This was my first time seeing the show, and the impersonator of Celine Dion had a wonderful singing voice. In particular, the segment about Elvis reminded me of watching the live broadcast in Honolulu on TV when I was in middle school, and it was very moving. This show is not just an impersonator show; it can be enjoyed as an entertainment show, and I believe it is worth attending at least once.

ハワイは３回目ですが，最後の日の夜に参加しました。
このショーは初めてですが，
セリーヌ・ディオンのそっくりさんの歌声は大変よかったです。
特にエルビスについては，過去のホノルルでの生中継を中学生
の時にテレビで見た記憶が思い出され，大変感動しました。
今回のショーは，単なるそっくりさんのショーでは無く，エン
ターテイメントのショーとして楽しめるものであり，一度は参
加する価値はあると思います。

Should be adults only since it is open bar, but it is amazing. A must do activity.

I participated to see the fireworks. The last time I joined, it was a daytime cruise, but this time it was my first night cruise. The atmosphere was completely different, and I really enjoyed it. The fireworks viewed from the boat were amazing, and I also enjoyed a delicious Mai Tai! It seemed like we took a route that we didn't go on during the daytime cruise, going all the way to Ala Moana and the harbor side, which allowed us to see a wonderful atmosphere that we usually don't get to experience.

花火を見るために参加しました。
以前参加した時は、昼間のクルーズだったのですが、今回は初めての夜のクルーズ。全く雰囲気も違うし、楽しめました。
船から見る花火は最高で、マイタイも美味しく頂きました！昼間のクルーズでは行かないルートを通ったのか、アラモアナ、ハーバー側にまで行ってくれて、普段見れない雰囲気も見ることができてステキでした。

Fun way to spend a friday evening. Great sailing experience. Met some other friendly travellers. The drinks were certainly flowing! If I were to do it again I would have 2 shakers, instead of 3!!

The all-you-can-drink option is great, and the crew is friendly. The space is a bit cramped, but there is a restroom available. However, it can be slightly visible from outside, so it's better for women to take care of that before boarding.

飲み放題もついいてクルーも気さくで少し狭いですがトイレもついていていますが外から若干見えてしまいますので女性の方は乗る前に済ましておいた方が良いです

It was a great night out with my best friend. Phillipe and Dave were both great and the view was amazing.

The show was great!!! Michael Jackson..was on point... I would definitely recommend this show and watch it again.

The experience was fun, the catamaran is nice with plenty of seating & standing room. Some drinks at the bar, you just cruise out, watch the fireworks & cruise back. The kids had a great time but I think it's definitely better for adults without kids. Fireworks go for about 5 mins.

Got a second email to do a review !! Lmao had a great time would totally do it again
