All Reviews for Social Cruises & Activities

I participated in a cocktail cruise on the Friday of the fireworks event. There were no white chairs as a landmark. The reception was at 7 PM and the departure was at 7:30 PM, but we actually left at 7:45 PM, just a few minutes before the fireworks started. We cruised for about an hour afterward, but I couldn't tell where the hotels in Waikiki were, as I could only see the lights without any clear landmarks. I think it would have been better around sunset. However, the starry sky was absolutely beautiful! Since it was late, I quickly became sleepy and spent most of the cruise dozing off (T_T). On the boat, upbeat songs were playing from the DJ, and the bartender was making drinks while a young group was having a great time. I got the impression that it might not be suitable for older guests. There are various nighttime cruises available, like dinner cruises, so it's best to choose one that suits you!

花火開催日の金曜のカクテルクルーズに参加しました。目印の白い椅子はありません。受付19時出航19:30でしたが、19:45に出航し数分後に花火が。その後1時間程クルーズしましたが、ワイキキ界隈のホテルは灯りが灯る様子だけで何処がどの辺りかわからない。サンセットの頃の方が良かったです。ただ、星空が凄く素敵でした！時間が時間なので直ぐ眠くなってしまい、クルーズ中ほぼ寝てました(T_T) 船内ではDJ選曲のアップテンポな曲がかかりバーテンダーがドリンクを作ってくれ、若いグループがキャッキャ言うてました^_^ 年配層には向かないかなーーって印象です。夜のクルーズ船はディナークルーズなど数々あるので、ご自分に合ったものを選ぶと良いですヨ

At the time of departure, there were dark clouds in the western sky, and I was feeling like I would have to give up on the sunset, but surprisingly, the sun broke through the clouds at sunset, and it was amazing. A group of about ten cheerful Americans really lifted the atmosphere. I think $45 for all-you-can-drink is a great price. I want to go again next year.

出航時には、西の空に黒い雲がかかってサンセットは諦め気分でしたが、なんと、日没には雲の間から夕日が出てきて最高でした。
10名ほどのアメリカ人の団体さんが陽気で、雰囲気を盛り上げてくれました。ドリンクフリーで45ドルはお値打ち価格だと思います。来年もまた乗りたいです。

Before the show started, I enjoyed a welcome drink, a Mai Tai, and was treated to cut fruits and macadamia nuts before entering. We had dinner at a VIP table in front of the stage. The lobster was half, but the steak was decent. My wife and I attended together, and she wore a dress she got the day before at a shop in Waikiki, while I dressed up a bit too, filled with excitement for the dinner. The dessert and the final Kona coffee were also very delicious.

Soon, everyone who was only attending the show entered, and the show was about to begin. Elvis Presley had a great atmosphere, and Michael Jackson's dancing was wonderful, receiving applause for his moonwalk. Katy Perry was a bit unfamiliar to us in our 50s, but it was fun and lively. The Hawaiian show and fire dance were packed with entertainment, making it a fantastic show. Above all, the performers' dedication was remarkable, which I believe was a major factor in our enjoyment. After the show, everyone was waiting at the exit, casually taking photos and signing autographs, which allowed us to capture great pictures.

My wife was also at her maximum excitement, and we truly felt we had a wonderful experience. It was a luxurious and enjoyable night in Waikiki to see an entertainment show that combined the essence of Las Vegas with Hawaiian flair, all from a VIP perspective.

ショーの始まる前にウィルカムドリンクのマイタイを頂き、カットフルーツやマカダミアナッツ等でおもてなし後入場しました
。ステージの前のVIP席でのディナーを頂きました。ロブスターはハーフですが、ステーキもまずまずでした。夫婦で参加しましたが、家内は前日ワイキキのショップで入手したドレスを着て、私も少しおしゃれしてテンションを上げ期待感満載のディナ
ーでした。デザートも最後のコナコーヒーも大変美味しかったです。
その内会場には、ショーのみ参加の皆さんも入場していよいよショーの始まりです。
エルビスプレスリーも雰囲気は上々、マイケルジャクソンは踊りが素晴らしくムーンウォークに拍手喝采でした。ケイティペリ

、ノリノリで楽しかったです。ハワイアンシヨーやファイアーダンスなど盛りだくさんで素晴らしいエンターティメントショーでした。何より皆さんのなりきり様が半端ではなく、楽しめた大きな要因だと思います。ショーが終わっても出口で皆さん待ってくれていて、記念写真やサインに気軽に応じてくださり、いい写真が撮れました。
家内もテンションMAXで本当にいい体験が出来たと感じました。本場ラスベガスのエンターティメントショーに、ハワイアンが加味された素晴らしくも楽しいディショーをVIPで見れるなんて贅沢で楽しいワイキキの夜でした。

Veltra's response was prompt, and I was grateful that there were no worries before the trip. The sunset was breathtaking. I definitely want to participate again next time.

Veltraの対応は迅速で、旅行前の不安がないのがまず有難かった。感動のサンセット。また次回も是非参加したいです。

I've been to Honolulu many times, but it was my first time seeing the fireworks. Moreover, watching the fireworks from a catamaran was a luxurious experience.

何回もホノルルに来てますが、花火を見るのは初めてでした。
しかも、カタマラン船からの花火は贅沢でした。

I participated with three friends.

We were able to see the hotels in Waikiki and Diamond Head from the seaside, and it was truly wonderful.

友達を含む4人で参加しました。

海側からワイキキのホテルやダイアモンドヘッドを見ることができ、本当に素晴らしかったです。

The drinks were delicious, and the scenery was very beautiful. Seeing the views from the sea, which I had always seen from land, offered a different perspective and was very refreshing. It was also fun to be on board with people from various nationalities. I definitely want to ride again.

お酒も美味しく景色もとても綺麗で、いつも陸から見ていた景色を海から見るとまた違った発見がありとても新鮮でした。
またいろんな国籍の人が乗っていたのでそれも新鮮で楽しかったです。
また絶対乗りたいです。

I was worried about how it would go since I had a 2-year-old with me, but we were captivated by the changing stages one after another. The service to guests was attentive, and we were able to enjoy a wonderful time.

2歳児連れだったので、どうなる事かと心配していましたが、次々と変わるステージに見入っていました。ゲストへのサービスも行き届き、楽しいひと時を過ごす事が出来ました。

This was my second time on the catamaran; the last time I was on a different boat. It was also my first time enjoying the fireworks and riding on a Mai Tai. I ordered an additional Mai Tai, and the crew was friendly, with the captain being very attentive. The fireworks were brief, but I was able to enjoy the night view of Waikiki during the evening cruise, which was very relaxing.

カタマランは２度目で前回は他の船で、花火鑑賞もマイタイに乗るのも今回初めてでした。
ドリンクもマイタイを追加もらいましたし、クルーも親切でキャプテンが
気配りしてくれてました。
花火は短時間ですが、夜のクルーズでワイキキの夜景を見る事が出来、リラックスできました。

I wanted to see an Elvis impersonation stage, so I attended this show. I was hoping to hear more of Elvis's well-known songs, but there were also a few Hawaiian songs, which was a bit of a letdown. However, I thought the singer who impersonated Michael Jackson had a very similar vocal quality. I believe it's quite difficult to mimic a voice with such clarity. Overall, the show was lively and enjoyable, and I lost track of time.

エルビスのものまねステージを見たくて、このショーを見てきました。エルビスの持ち歌でもっとよく知られている歌を聴きたかったのですが、ハワイアンの歌も何曲かあって、やや拍子抜けでした。しかし、マイケル・ジャクソンを真似た歌手の声質がとても似ていたように思います。透明感のある声を似せるのはとても難しいと思うからです。ショー全体としては賑やかで楽しく、時間が経つのも忘れるほどでした。

If the weather is clear, the sunset will be the best memory of the trip. The location is fantastic! I enjoyed a delicious Mai Tai while watching the beautiful sunset. Since there were no soft drinks available, it might be a good idea to bring a bottle of water.

While waiting to board, someone playing in the waves lost one of their flip-flops, but they turned it into a laugh. When getting off the boat, we were hit by a wave, and there were screams and laughter with the staff! My bag got wet, but it was fun! Even those little accidents become great memories.

However, motion sickness medication is a must. Dress in a way that you don't mind getting your lower legs wet. The check-in location is a bit hard to find, so it's easier to go straight from the parking lot through the narrow path between the two hotels towards the sea, rather than going through the Sheraton lobby. It's immediately on the left. If you come using the stairs from the Kai Market down to the sea, it will be on your right.

I think opinions may vary on the dinner cruise, but I recommend it as an activity for adults to enjoy leisurely.

晴れていれば最高のサンセットが旅の思い出になります。とにかくロケーションが最高です！美しいサンセットを見ながら、甘いマイタイを美味しくいただきました。ソフトドリンクがなかったので、ペットボトルのお水を持参するといいかもしれません。
出向を待っている間に、波で遊んでいた人がビーチサンダルを片方流されてしまっていましたが、それも笑いに変えていました。
船から降りるときに波に襲われ、悲鳴とともにスタッフと爆笑！バックが濡れてしまいましたが、楽しかったです！そんなちょっとしたアクシデントもいい思い出に変わります。
但し、酔い止めは必須です。膝下は濡れてもいいような恰好で。
受付場所がわかりにくいので、シェラトンのロビーを抜けるよりも、駐車場から二つのホテルの間の細い道を海に向かって真っすぐに抜けていくとわかりやすいです。すぐ左にあります。カイマーケットから海に降りる階段を使って来ると右手にあります。
ディナークルーズと好みが分かれると思いますが、大人がゆったりと楽しむアクティビティとしておすすめです。

Our family took this cruise and enjoyed it immensely. The crew was very personable and friendly. The ride was just long enough - 90 mins was perfect. Only disappointing thing was they took pics of each group when we boarded but we couldn't find the person when we returned. No big thing tho we had many chances to take photos during the cruise. This is a great cruise and very well worthy the price.

The experience was amazing and one of a kind! It definitely exceeded my expectations. My girlfriend and I are very excited to do this again some time soon.

She has a leg disability and uses a prosthetic leg, so I carried her onto the yacht. I want to make sure she can get on the yacht without getting wet. I would like a special ladder prepared for her.

彼女は、足が悪く義足の為、私がおぶってヨットに乗せました。濡れないでヨットに乗れる様にして欲しい。何か特別な、はしごを用意して欲しい。

We participated with 20 people. The service may not be very reliable, but if you approach it with a self-service mindset, you can enjoy it. As for drinks, there are times when they might be forgotten, so you need to be proactive in getting them.

20人で参加しました。
サービスはあまり期待は出来ませんが、セルフ感覚で参加すると楽しめます。
ドリンクは、配り忘れられることがあるので、積極的に取りにいかないといけません。

The crew was awesome! Michelle was a fantastic bartender and we had so much fun on the cruise! Would highly recommend for a relaxed fun time.

We participated as a family of three. This was our sixth time on Oahu, but it was the first time we joined, and it became a wonderful memory. The Mai Tai was delicious (it tastes better without ice). We would like to participate again next time.

家族3人で参加しました
オアフ島6回目で初めて参加しましたが、素晴らしい思い出になりました。
マイタイも美味しく（氷を無しにしてもらったほうが美味しい）いただきました。
次回も参加したいと思います。

The sunset was beautiful, and the 90 minutes went by in no time. I definitely want to ride again next time. Thank you very much.

サンセットが綺麗であっと言う間の90分でした、また次回ぜひ乗りたいです。
ありがとうございました。

The view of Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach from the boat was very beautiful. As the boat moved, the shape of Diamond Head changed, allowing us to see various perspectives of it. There were only about 15 participants that day, so we were able to relax comfortably. It was the best experience to enjoy sparkling wine while feeling the pleasant sea breeze!

船上から見るダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキビーチがとてもきれいでした。
船の進行によってダイヤモンドヘッドの形が変わり、いろいろなダイヤモンドヘッドを見られました。
その日の参加者が15名程度で少なかったのでゆったりとくつろげました。
気持ち良い海風を受けながらスパークリングワインが飲めて最高でした！！

Unfortunately, the clouds covered the sunset moment, so I couldn't capture it beautifully, but it was really enjoyable to drink while watching the sunset over the sea. Everyone was so friendly, both Japanese and foreign visitors, and it was a lot of fun! I couldn't understand English at all (laughs), but they took pictures for me and ordered drinks. When I recommended it to my friends, they also seemed to have a great time! I want to go again! Thanks to other people's reviews, I didn't get wet! As expected, wearing flip-flops and shorts is important because you will get wet up to your knees when boarding, so be careful with your clothing!

残念ながら雲がちょうどかかっちゃって肝心なサンセットの瞬間は綺麗には撮れませんでしたが、海の上で夕焼けみながら飲むのは本当に楽しかったです。皆さん和気あいあいとされてて日本人、外国の方、みなさん声かけてくださって凄く楽しかったです！英語全然わからなかったけど（笑）写真撮ってくれたり、お酒頼んでくれたり。友達にも勧めたら楽しかったみたいです！またのりたい！他の方のクチコミのおかげで濡れませんでした！やはりビーサンにショートパンツなど、乗り込み時にひざくらいまで海につかるので服装は注意が必要です！

My parents in their 70s were with us, and it seems they had more fun than we expected. The stage was close, making it easy to see, and we enjoyed the music as well.

70代の両親も一緒でしたが、思ったより楽しかったようです。
舞台が近いので、見やすく音楽も楽しめました。

The VIP seats were close to the stage, and the artists came right to our seats, which was incredibly exciting. The quality of the show was also high, and I was very satisfied.

VIP 席はステージに近く、アーティストが席まで来てくれて、迫力満点でした。ショーの完成度も高く、大満足です。

I wanted to show my 80-year-old father, who loves Elvis, so I went. I thought the food would be mediocre, so we went to a restaurant we liked. At the entrance, we ordered our favorite drinks (make sure to bring money as it's an additional charge) and participated just to see the show. Our seats were at the very back.

It had been 20 years since I last attended. I was wondering how it would be, but it was so much fun! From Hawaiian shows to impersonations! The quality was high, and the audience was never bored, as expected!

There was a Japanese lady really getting into it during Elvis's "Jailhouse Rock," and she got a hug from Elvis ♥ It was so much fun! My daughter also enjoyed herself in her own way! We enjoyed our meal and then casually went to see the show without feeling pressured or being stuck for a long time, which was great! I've heard the air conditioning is strong, so a long-sleeve shirt is a must.

I even recommended it to a friend who is going to Hawaii next week! My daughter kept saying that the impersonator of Michael was the staff member who was pouring beer at the entrance! I wonder if that's true...

エルビスが好きな80才になる父親に見せたくて、いってまいりました。
この手の食事はいまいちだと思ったのでレストランは好きなところに行き。入り口で、すきな飲み物を注文(別料金なのでお金持参)ショーだけみるのに参加しました。席は一番後ろの方になります。
私は20年ぶりに参加しました。いかがなものかと思っておりましたか。とても楽しかったです！ハワイアンショーから、ものまねまで！クオリティーもたかく、観客を飽きさせることなく、さすがです！
エルビスの監獄ロックで、のりのりになってる日本人のおばさまがいて、エルビスにハグされていました♥楽しかった～
娘もなんだかんだと楽しんでいました！自分たちで食事を楽しんで、そのあと、ふらっとショーを見に行く感覚で気負いすることもなく、長時間拘束されることもなくよかったです！クーラーは、聞いておりますので長袖は必須です。
翌週から、渡ハする友人にもお薦めしちゃいました♪
娘がマイケルのものまねは、入り口でビールいれてた店員さんだよ！としきりに言ってたのですが。。
本当かな…

We were the only Japanese family. It was fun to experience the waves that soaked us and share smiles with the surrounding Americans. The scenery was amazing as we passed Diamond Head and enjoyed the waters off Honolulu all the way to Ala Moana. We participated in various optional tours, but this was the most enjoyable optional tour in Hawaii. I would do it again.

日本人は私達家族だけ。びしょ濡れになる程の波を受け周りのアメリカ人達と笑顔で笑いあえる体験が楽しい。景色はダイヤモンドヘッドを過ぎ、アラモアナまで周りホノルル沖を満喫。色んなオプショナルツアーに参加しましたがハワイで一番楽しいオプショナルツアー。また乗ります。

We happened to attend on the one day it rained. luckily we weren't in the boat during heavy rain but it meant we could see the lovely island view from the boat due to the clouds and had to return slightly early. That said though, the crew was wonderfully and I still had a great time out on the water.

I have been to Hawaii many times, but I had never experienced a cruise. I decided to participate to try it out, and I was extremely satisfied with the excitement and comfort, which exceeded my expectations. I would like to do it again.

ハワイには何度も行ったことがありますが、クルーズは未体験でした。一度は体験しておこうと参加しましたが、予想以上の盛り上がりと気持ち良さで大満足でした。またリピートしたいと思います。

Since I came all the way to Hawaii, I booked a show. At first, I signed up for a show with transportation included, but since the meeting point was farther from the hotel, I opted for this one that I could get to on my own. For those with a short stay, I think it's good because you can see it in Waikiki, which minimizes time loss. It was standard, but it included a welcome drink plus one drink, and the food was decent. Perhaps because it was small, all the seats were relatively close to the stage. There was also a face painting service for kids, which they enjoyed. I think it's a good experience to try at least once.

せっかくハワイに来たので、とショーを申し込みしました。
最初は送迎つきのショーを申し込みましたが、集合場所がホテルより遠いため自力で行けるこちらにしました。
滞在時間が短い方にはワイキキで見れるため時間のロスが少なくてよいと思います。
スタンダードでしたが、ウェルカムドリンク＋１ドリンクつきで食事もまぁまぁかな～って感じです。こじんまりしているせいか、どの席もわりと近くで見れました。
子供にペイントサービスみたいなのもあって喜んでいました。
一度体験してみるにはよいと思います。

This was my second time, and it was impressive to see it right in front of me. My child was also captivated. Thank you.

今回で２回目でしたが目の前で見れてしかも迫力があり子供も釘付で見てました。
ありがとうございます。

On August 17, I attended the Rock-a-Hula VIP dinner. First of all, by booking the VIP experience, you can enter earlier than general guests. While waiting for the opening time, hula dancers and singers come out to perform on a mini stage. Then, with excitement, we entered and were greeted by none other than Michael Jackson! We took a commemorative photo together! (This photo can be purchased with a frame.) As we moved further in, the staff welcomed us with a welcome drink and hors d'oeuvres. After relaxing for a while, we were shown to our seats. I thought the seating was a bit cramped, but once the meal started, it wasn't a big deal.

The food was five stars! Lobster arrived along with fruits and salad. I imagined it would be the kind of dry lobster served at weddings, but it was completely different. The meat was firm (but not tough) and came out easily from the shell, and it was delicious. The presentation was beautiful as well. Additionally, the main course of beef and Alaska salmon was served on warmed plates to keep the food from getting cold. What a thoughtful touch! The mashed potatoes on the side were also excellent. Overall, the portion sizes were just right, and it was a well-balanced meal.

By the time we finished the course, an announcement for the show began. The artists performing that day were Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, and Katy Perry. What a hit!! With captivating voices and dynamic dances, sometimes elegant and smooth. It was truly a stage where rock and hula merged. Even those who are not familiar with Western music can enjoy it fully!! I won't go into details, as the artists change depending on the day, and more than anything, I want everyone who will be going to experience the great excitement. Highly recommended!!

8月17日、ロック・ア・フラVIPディナー、いって参りました。
まず、VIPで申し込むと一般のお客さんより早く入場できます。
OPEN時間までの待ち時間、フラダンサーとシンガーがやってきてミニステージを見せてくれます。
そしてウキウキしながら入場。なんとマイケル・ジャクソンが出迎えてくれました！一緒に記念写真をパチリ！（この写真は台紙付きで購入できます。）さらに奥へと進むと、ウェルカムドリンクとオードブルでスタッフさんが歓迎してくれます。しばらくのんびりした後、席に案内されます。席は若干窮屈かな、と思いましたが、食事が始まるとそれほど気になりませんでした。

料理は５つ星です！フルーツやサラダと一緒にロブスターがやってきました。ああ、きっと結婚式で出てくるようなモソモソしたものなのだろうと想像していましたが、全くの別物でした。身がブリンと引き締まっていて（固くはないです）殻から取れやすく、おいしかったです。盛り付けも綺麗でした。また、メインのビーフ＆アラスカサーモンは、料理が冷めないよう温まったお皿にのって出てきました。うれしい心遣いです。付け合わせのマッシュポテトも最高でした。全体的に量が程よく、バランスのよいお食事でした。

コースを食べ終える頃、ショー開始のアナウンスが流れました。この日の出演アーティストは、エルビス・プレスリー、マイケル・ジャクソン、ケイティ・ペリーです。大当たり！！魅惑のボイスに躍動感あふれるダンス。時には優雅にしっとりと。正にロックとフラが融合したステージでした。洋楽に詳しくない方でも充分に楽しめます！！詳細内容にはふれないでおきましょう。日によってアーティストも変わりますし、何よりもこれから見に行く皆さんに大きな感動を味わっていただきたいので。イチオシです！！

I watched the Rock of Ages show from the VIP seats! Upon entering, we were welcomed with a welcome drink, and then we enjoyed dinner. The lobster, salmon, and meat were all very filling, and we also got one free drink. The meat and bread were especially delicious.

As for the main show, overall I was satisfied, but it would have been even better if Michael and Elvis's songs had been more popular hits! That said, there were hula performances and fire dances, making for a rich experience!

ロックアフラショーをVIP席で見てきました！
入場してすぐウェルカムドリンクでもてなしがあり、中に入ってまずディナーをいただきます。
ロブスター、サーモン、お肉とボリューム満点で、ドリンクも一杯無料でついてます。お肉とパンが特においしかったです。
その後のメインのショーですが、全体的には満足なのですが、マイケルやエルビスの曲がもっとメジャーな曲だったら尚良しってかんじでした！
とは言え、フラあり、ファイヤーダンスありで充実の内容でした♪
