Waikiki
I participated in the 5 PM reception. I was planning to return before the sunset, but thanks to the captain's arrangement, we were able to extend our time and see a very beautiful sunset. Thank you to the captain and the lovely bartender! Please be careful with your footing when boarding and disembarking, as the waves can be high and the stairs are narrow.
17時受付の回に参加しました。
夕日が沈む前に帰ってくる予定が、
キャプテンの計らいで、延長していただき、
とても美しい沈む夕日がみれました。
キャプテン、そして美しいバーテンの女性の方、ありがとうございます!!
乗船、下船時は波が高いこともあり足場も細い階段なので、足元注意です。
At the time of the reservation, I couldn't predict the weather, and unfortunately, it was cloudy on the day, so we couldn't see the sunset. However, everyone on the boat, including the staff and other guests, had a great time! When drinks ran out, the staff encouraged us to have more, so we could drink plenty. There are also restrooms on board, which is reassuring! The wind feels amazing! I would love to participate again when it's sunny!
予約の時点で天気の予想が出来ず、当日あいにく曇りでサンセットはみれませんでしたが、船の上でスタッフも他のお客さんもみんなで盛り上がりました!飲み物が無くなったらスタッフが進めてくれて沢山飲めます。トイレもついてるので安心です!風が凄く気持ちいいです!晴れてる時にまた参加したいなぁと思います!
I wanted my 2-year-old to experience sailing, so we participated! There were two other families with small children, and about 40% of the participants were Japanese.
I had expected mostly young foreigners based on the reviews, but surprisingly, there were quite a few older participants as well (laughs), and the atmosphere was quite relaxed. However, when the waves splashed, everyone got excited and started squealing, and as the drinks kicked in, we gradually began dancing to the music, enjoying the lively vibe of a different culture!
The captain and crew didn't speak Japanese, but they were friendly and cheerful, which made for a pleasant experience.
While some reviews mention negative experiences, I think those who enjoy drinking and having a good time will really enjoy this. We've participated in various activities during our trip to Hawaii, but my husband, who doesn't speak English, said this cruise was the most fun. The rocking of the boat is quite intense, making it perfect for those who love roller coasters! Conversely, if you're looking to enjoy a more serene sunset, you might want to choose a different cruise.
2歳児にセーリングを体験させたくて参加しました!他にも小さなお子様連れが2組いて、日本人参加者は全体の4割程度でした。
口コミを見て外国人は若者ばかりを覚悟していましたが、案外若くもなく(笑)落ち着いた感じでした。でも波しぶきがかかるとキャーキャー言って盛り上がり、酔いがまわると次第に音楽に合わせて踊り始め異国のノリを楽しめました♪
キャプテンやクルーは日本語を話せませんが、フランクな陽気な方でとても感じが良かったです。
口コミでたまに嫌な思いをされる方がいるようですが、お酒が好きで、ワイワイするのが好きな方でしたら楽しめると思います。このハワイ旅行で色々と参加しましたが、英語が話せない主人でもこのクルーズが一番楽しかったと言っています。揺れが激しいので、ジェットコースター好きな方にもピッタリです!
逆に、しっとりとサンセットを楽しみたい方は別のクルーズにされた方がいいかもしれません。
I was moved when I rode it for the first time last year! I've decided to make it a regular tour starting this year! Enjoying a delicious Mai Tai against the backdrop of the hotels in Waikiki and Diamond Head♡ This is pure bliss. Sometimes getting splashed by the waves, and after the excitement of the activities, slowing down to fully enjoy the sunset. I'll ride it again next year!
昨年初めて乗って感動!今年から定番ツアーに決定!ワイキキのホテル群とダイヤモンドヘッドを背景に美味しいマイタイを飲む♡
これぞ至福の時間。時に波をかぶったり、アクティビティの様なワクワクの後、スピードを落としてサンセットを存分に楽しむ。また来年も乗ります!
Open bar had great selection. Length of trip with fireworks was perfect. Just what I was looking for.
I booked the evening cruise on the fourth day. Be careful, as it looks nothing like the catalog images. As soon as we got out to Diamond Head, the waves of the open sea caused a lot of up-and-down motion... Personally, it was the best activity, but I definitely do not recommend it for those who get motion sickness.
4日目の夕方乗船で予約。カタログ画像と全く違うので要注意。ダイヤモンドヘッド沖まで出たとたん、外洋の波でアップダウンの激しい揺れが・・・。個人的には最高のアクティビティーでしたが、乗り物酔いする方には絶対にお勧めしません。
I quickly found the reception area since I had researched it in advance. I arrived at the meeting time of 2:30 PM and was told to return by 3:00 PM, so I waited right in front. However, even at 3:00 PM, it seemed like the reserved guests hadn't arrived, and they were discussing something while looking at the list, which delayed our boarding. In the end, it was just our group and a family of three that set sail. It was nice to have the boat to ourselves and enjoy the view of Waikiki Beach from the ocean, but when we went further out towards Diamond Head, it was a bit scary. If we could have seen dolphins or something, it might have been more enjoyable, but I started to feel a bit bored. Since I can't speak English, the staff kindly checked on me in Japanese to see if I was okay.
受付場所は事前に調べていたのですぐにわかりました。集合時間14:30に到着し50分に戻って来てと言われたのですぐ前で待っていましたが、15:00になっても予約客が来ないのか名簿を見ながら何やら話してなかなか乗船出来ませんでした、結局私達と3人家族だけで出航しました。貸切状態でゆったりできワイキキビーチを沖から見ているでは良かったけれど、延々沖(ダイヤモンドヘッドの方)へ出た時ちょっと怖かったかな。イルカとか何か見れたらもう少し楽しめたかもですがちょっと退屈してきました。英語が話せないのでスタッフは大丈夫?と日本語で気遣ってくれました。
We had a great time seeing Waikiki from the water and the crew was great, they were very fun with the guests and made every effort to anticipate our needs.
I enjoyed the sunset at Diamond Head while sipping a Mai Tai with a cheerful captain!
It's my favorite memory from Waikiki.
陽気なキャプテンとマイタイを楽しみながら、サンセットのダイヤモンドヘッドを満喫しました!
ワイキキでの一番の思い出です。
Great just don’t bother paying the extra for all you can drink it can be a little bumpy out there
It was a small Mai Tai catamaran, but it sped along gracefully, with the cheers of passengers splashing in the waves. Tourists from Japan were able to exchange photos with foreign tour guests and share a fun time together. The sight of Diamond Head glowing in the sunset was also impressive, and I definitely want to board again next time.
小型のマイタイ・カタマラン号でしたが軽快に疾走し、波しぶきを浴びた乗客達の歓声が船中に。
日本からの観光客も、外国人ツアー客とも写真交換させてもらい楽しい時間を共有できました。
夕日に浮かぶダイアモンドヘッドも印象的で、次回も是非、乗船したいと思う。
Loved it really enjoyed the experience would highly recommend. Fantastic way to end a holiday
It’s beautiful just don’t opt for the all you can drink it’s to short of a journey to try and catch a buzz while admiring the views!
You can enjoy beautiful views of Diamond Head and feel the breeze of Hawaii, which is very enjoyable. This time it was cloudy, so I couldn't see the sunset, but I would love to visit again.
ダイアモンドヘッドが綺麗に見れたりと景色が堪能でき
ハワイの風を感じられたりととても楽しいです。
今回は曇ってて日の入りが見られませんでしたが、またリピートしたいと思います。
We had the most incredible evening - these women are kickass and we couldn't have imagined a better crew!! The drinks were great, the sunset unbelievable and the boat was VERY clean - even the bathrooms were nice and clean. We would definitely do this again when back in Hawaii!
Highly recommend a Hawaiian Mimosa by the way!! Well worth the money for an evening on the water - big enough that it's spacious too. Thank you girls for such a memorable evening!! <3
I apologize for the late post, but I used the service in April. Since our arrival date was on a Friday, I signed up for my friend’s first trip to Hawaii to see the Hilton fireworks! My friend, who was worried about motion sickness, was very happy to enjoy the fireworks while feeling the pleasant breeze (a jacket is a must!). I usually watch from the beach, but seeing the fireworks from the water was exceptional. I would like to sign up again next time!
投稿が遅くなりましたが、4月に利用しました。到着日が金曜日だったので、ヒルトンの花火が観られる!とハワイ初の友達のために申し込みました。乗り物酔いが心配だった友達も、心地よい風を受けながらの花火鑑賞にとても喜んでくれました(上着は必須です!)。私もいつもはビーチからの鑑賞でしたが、海の上から見る花火は格別なものでした。次回も申し込みたいと思います!
It was an amazing trip with beautiful views. The crew was friendly and funny. I would recommend this trip!!!
I was very lucky to encounter a pod of dolphins! The tour guide was also very enthusiastic and made the experience enjoyable. I was truly happy in that wonderful atmosphere. Thank you very much! 😊
イルカの群れにも出逢えて
とてもラッキーでした!
添乗員さんもノリノリで楽しませて頂き
本当に幸せな空間で嬉しかったです。
ありがとございました(^^)
I showed my voucher at the booth as instructed, but was told it was the wrong place and that I needed to go to the Sheraton. When I went to the Sheraton, there was no reception area. When I returned, I saw the same person from earlier with the boat in the photo, so I asked again and was told to wait there. However, while I was left waiting, more and more people boarded the boat, and as they were about to close it, I asked again and was told to hurry up. During the tour, everything was lively in English, but the only time I heard Japanese was when they asked for tips at the end. It was the worst experience.
指示どうりのブースでバウチャー見せたのに、ここではない シェラトンの方だと、シェラトンの方に行きましたが受付らしきものはなく、また、戻って見ると先程の人と写真の船があったので、もう一度聞くと、その場で待つように言われたが、どんどん他の人間が乗船する中ほったらかし、締め切ろうとするので、もう一度聞くと早く乗れと ツアー中もすべて英語で盛り上がって、唯一下船時に『チップ下さい』の日本語 最悪〜
We participated as a couple, and it was really fun. This might be the best tour we've been on so far. The captain was lively and made it enjoyable, and there were young people from abroad, so we were able to take photos together, creating great memories.
夫婦で参加しました、とても楽しかったです
今まで行ったツアーで一番かな。キャプテンもノリノリで楽しかったです、外国の若者もいて一緒に写真も撮れていい思い出になりました。
Last year, I participated with my daughter and had so much fun that this time I joined with a friend who was visiting Hawaii for the first time. I signed her up as a surprise gift since she is a bit scared, but the fun was so overwhelming that she seemed to forget her fear and was really happy, asking to go to the front of the boat to take pictures. There were not many Japanese people, but the foreigners were lively, dancing and singing, which made it incredibly enjoyable. When we got off the boat, a wave came and soaked us up to our bottoms (^▽^;). I think it's better to have a towel. I would definitely like to participate again when I go to Hawaii.
昨年、娘と参加してとても楽しかったので今回はハワイ初の友人と参加させていただきました。少し怖がりの友人へサプライズプレゼントで申し込みしたのですが、あまりの楽しさに怖さもどこかへ行ってしまったのか自分から船の先頭へ行って写真撮って~と凄く喜んでいました。日本人は少ないですが、外人さん達がノリノリで踊ったり、歌ったりですっごく楽しかったです。
船から降りる時に波がきてお尻まで濡れてしまいました(^▽^;)タオルはあった方が良いと思います。またハワイへ行った際は是非参加したいです。
I stayed in Hawaii for a wedding this time. I booked this sunset cruise as an optional tour that my parents and relatives could enjoy together! As expected, everyone from my elderly parents to my cousins in their 20s had a great time. The drinks were all-you-can-drink, and the cheerful crew created a fun atmosphere, making the cruising experience fly by. The last time I came to Hawaii, I participated in the daytime cruise, but I personally recommend the sunset cruise because it’s not too hot, and the sea breeze feels nice! If you go to Hawaii, definitely consider joining this. It should be enjoyable for people of all ages and genders.
今回ウェディングのためにハワイに滞在しました。両親、親戚も一緒に楽しめるオプショナルツアーとしてこちらのサンセットクルーズを予約しました!期待通り高齢の両親から20代のいとこまで全員楽しむ事が出来ました。ドリンクは飲み放題で明るいクルー達が盛り上げてくれ楽しい雰囲気であっという間のクルージングです。前回ハワイに来たときは日中の本クルーズに参加しましたがサンセットクルーズのほうが暑すぎず海風が気持ち良くて個人的におすすめです!!ハワイに行かれる際は是非ご参加してみてください。年齢、性別問わずお楽しみいただけるはずです。
I was worried about seasickness, so I participated without alcohol. There were many people besides Japanese, and the atmosphere on the boat was lively. We were blessed with good weather, and it was a wonderful sunset time. I would like to join this tour again when I go to Hawaii.
船酔いが心配だったので、ノンアルコールで参加しました。
日本人以外もたくさんいて、船上はにぎやかでした。
お天気にも恵まれ、素敵なサンセットタイムでした。
またハワイに行った際は、参加したいツアーです。
Easily booked.
Rather difficult to find the place to check in.
Excellent captain and hostess.
Could go a bit further in the ocean instead of making a couple of rounds near the shore.
I have been on a catamaran before and have participated in sunset cruises, but this time was the best.
Above all, the hospitality of the captain and the bartender was outstanding!
And not only did we see the sunset, but we also got to see dolphins!
I have seen whales before, but they were a bit far away, so that was a little disappointing. However, this time, as the captain said, we saw them up close.
And the casual interactions with the friendly mainland people on board.
I was reminded once again how important it is for each person to connect!
カタマランには以前にも乗ったことがあるし、サンセットクルーズにも参加したことがあるし、、、と思いながら参加したのですが、今回のは最高でした。
何より船長とバーテンダーのホスピタリティが最高!
そして、サンセットだけでなく、なんとイルカも見ることができました!
クジラは見たことがあるのですが、やや遠かったので少し残念でした。しかし今回は、船長の言った通り、すごく間近で見るました。
そして船上でのフランクなメインランドの人達とのささいな関わり。
人間、ひとりひとりが関わることが大事なんだと改めて実感しました!
At the meeting point, there are similar boats, so it's essential to confirm the logo of the black-hulled "Mai Tai." At first, I mistakenly went to the reception of a different boat in front. When the start time arrived, there was an energetic explanation, and we boarded with that same excitement. Soon after, Mai Tais were served, but you really have to go and get them yourself. There were many young Americans, and the atmosphere felt just like a party. We went out much further than I expected, and Diamond Head was beautiful. You can enjoy it for a full two hours.
集合場所に、似たような船があるので
黒い船体の「マイタイ」というロゴの確認必須。
最初、手前の違う船の受付へ行ってしまいました。
開始時間になると、ノリノリの説明があり
そのテンションのまま、乗船。
すぐに、マイタイがふるまわれますが、
自分から、グイグイ取りに行かないとだめです。
若いアメリカ人多し、まさにパーティ会場のようなテンションで
突っ走ります。
思っていたより、かなり沖まで行ってくれて
ダイアモンドヘッドがきれいでした。
二時間たっぷり、楽しめます。
An American group with a wedding reception vibe, just so cheerful! Unlimited Mai Tais, 4 to 5 cups! I was surprised by the dolphins jumping.
結婚式二次会風のアメリカ人グループ、とにかく陽気❗️ マイタイ飲み放題を4~5杯‼️ イルカのジャンプにはびっくりしました。
Check-in was at 2:30 PM, so I arrived a bit early, around 2:20 PM, and checked in right at 2:30 PM. However, it felt quite relaxed, as it seemed you could check in anytime between 2:30 PM and 2:45 PM.
The sunset cruise was fully booked a few days in advance, but it seemed like the daytime cruise was okay for same-day reservations. Those who were boarding on the day had paper wristbands on their arms, and there were quite a few of them.
There are restrooms available. The drinks for the daytime cruise were not all-you-can-drink, as stated on Veltra, so I went with that expectation. In reality, the bartender explained things in long sentences in English, which I didn't quite understand, but I heard him mention prices like "beer ◯ dollars" and "Mai Tai ◯ dollars." However, everyone seemed to just tell the bartender what drinks they wanted, giving it a feel of all-you-can-drink.
Tips were being thrown in with $10 and $20 bills. I guess it was implied that while the beer was ◯ dollars, you should tip on top of that? I thought it would be nice if they provided a paper explanation in Japanese at check-in regarding that system. Regulars were already ordering drinks and starting to drink before the explanation.
On the boat, people who didn’t know each other were chatting and having a good time, but if you can’t speak English, you might feel a bit isolated. It seems like it would be more fun with a larger group.
チェックインが14:30なので早めに14:20くらいに着いて14:30ぴったりにチェックインしましだが、14:30〜14:45くらいまでにチェックインすれば良いような緩い感じでした。
サンセットの方は予約で数日前から埋まってましたが、昼の部は当日でもOKのようです。当日受付に言って乗る人たちは腕に紙のリングを巻いてましたが、かなりいました。
トイレあります。
ドリンクは昼の部は飲み放題ではないとベルトラに書いてあったので、そのつもりで乗りました。
実際はバーテンダーが英語で長文で説明されたので良くわからなかったのですが、ビール◯ドル、マイタイ◯ドルとか読み上げてましたが、みんなバーテンダーに飲みたいドリンクを言って飲み放題感覚でした。
チップは10ドル紙幣や20ドル紙幣がガンガン入れられていました。
「ビール◯ドルだけど、チップで入れてね」ってことだったのでしょうか?
あのシステムは日本語にして受付で紙で配ってくれても良いなと思いました。常連さんは乗った時から(説明前)ドリンクをオーダーして飲み始めてました。
船上は知らない人同士も気さくに話し合い盛り上がっていましたが、英語が話せないとポツンとしてしまいます。大人数で乗った方が盛り上がるでしょうね。
we absolutely loved our trip on the Mana Kai Catamaran! Our captain was named Brewski and he made sure that we all had a great time and everybody was safe. Beautiful views, fun vibe, and good people.
Buy a handle of rum and mix it with some fresh Hawaiian juices, mix it up in a huge jug and bring it aboard for everybody to share! you will make friends quick! everyone is on vacation so its a great vibe
It was an exciting and enjoyable evening. I had to make a reservation early for the evening, as last year it was fully booked and I couldn't get in. This time, I made a reservation from Japan and went on my second choice date. Since most of the guests were Japanese, I felt a bit more at ease.
迫力があり楽しい夕時でした。
夕方の予約は早い目にしないといけないので去年は予約いっぱいでダメだったので今回は日本で予約して第二希望日で乗りました。日本の方がほとんどだったので少し安心でした。
