All Reviews for Social Cruises & Activities

This is a MUST do for everyone and anyone. We did the fireworks cruise and it was incredible. The staff were amazing and the drinks were awesome. This was the perfect way to end our week in Hawaii.

The cruise and crew were amazing. Very helpful getting people on and off the boat.

The day of participation was quite sunny, and since there were no other Japanese participants, I really felt like I was abroad, which made it so much fun. The juice I drank on the boat was exceptional! I was also able to see turtles swimming in the sea, which became a wonderful memory.♪

参加日はかなりの晴天で、また他の参加者に日本人がいなかったため、これぞ外国！という気分を味わえてとっても楽しかったです。
船の上で飲むジュースはまた格別でした！
海で泳ぐ亀も見ることができ、とってもよい思い出になりました♪

This was a fun day activities, the two gentleman was great host. We would do it again and highly recommend it...

Actually, my wife teaches hula in Japan, so I am quite familiar with it. However, since my wife's sister was visiting Hawaii for the first time, we decided to take her to see a hula and Hawaiian show on the terrace of the Hilton Hotel. The show included Tahitian dance and some slightly arranged hula, and if you view it as a show, it was enjoyable enough. The food was standard and didn't change much, and it seemed that the seating didn't matter too much, so we were glad we got the standard tickets!

実は妻が日本でフラの教室をしていますので、私もかなりフラに関しては馴染み深いのですが、妻の姉が今回初ハワイでしたので、ショー形式のフラ・ハワイアンショーをヒルトンホテルの中階層のテラスで見せてあげようと出かけてきました。タヒチアンあり、多少アレンジされたフラが有り、ショーとして割り切って見ればそれなりに楽しめるショーでした。食事の内容はスタンダードも変わりませんし、席もあまり関係ないようですので、スタンダードチケットで私達はかえってよかったね！と、思った位でした。

We really had a great time- friendly staff and plenty of room on the boat- not crowded. We would definately do it again

Incredible views of Honolulu & Diamond head, nice breeze, a fun crew, and all you can drink Mai Tais, what could be better?

My wife & I were really glad we chose the sunset catamaran over the night (fireworks) one, as it got a bit chilly after the sunset... especially if you happen to get wet. If you enjoy being at the front of the catamaran, I would recommend a swimsuit, as you'll probably get wet. Also, if you choose the Friday night catamaran, just be aware that fireworks are only about 10 minutes long at around 7:45pm.

Otherwise, this is a must, enjoy it!

I signed up for this cruise because I wanted to experience the best sunset on the last day. The waves were rolling right in front of me, sparkling and creating an incredible atmosphere. The weather was also perfect, allowing for an emotional sunset. I think it's definitely better than being on a cruise ship. I will participate in this again next time.

最終日に最高のサンセットに出合いたくてこのクルーズに申し込みました。波が目の前でうねりキラキラ輝いていて臨場感が半端ないです。天気も最高によかったので感動的なサンセットが見れました。クルーズ船より断然いいと思います。次回もこれには参加すると思います。

fireworks were amazing. Ride was great and just long enough. Very relaxing. Crew members were nice and funny. Drinks were delicious.

Great time on the boat! Drinks were good, people were nice & a whale and her baby gave us a show! Not to mention the sunset was just great! Will surely do it again!!

It was a very special time. The staff all spoke English. They also provided explanations about the restrooms and other things. It was on a boat. There was an all-you-can-drink option. Almost everyone ordered a Mai Tai cocktail. They were very accommodating with refills. There were also other drinks available, including sparkling wine and white wine. Knowing it was all-you-can-drink, I brought some snacks. I wasn't particularly scolded for eating, and it felt like it was okay. An overseas guest who was on board praised it as the best Mai Tai they had ever had. It was very easy to drink.

When getting on and off the boat, your feet can get wet. I recommend bringing a towel or a cover-up. The staff is very kind and offers to help.

The view from the boat is amazing. The sunset over the horizon was beautiful, and we were able to see the sun setting.

It was very special time.
とても素敵な時間でした。スタッフは全員が英語でした。トイレなどの説明もしてくれました。船にあります。飲み放題でした。マイタイカクテルをほぼ全員が注文。おかわりも、快くいれてくれます。また、ちがうドリンクやスパークリングワインや白ワインなどもありました。飲み放題と知ってたので、スナックを持ち込みました。特に食べていて注意されたりはなく、オッケーという感じでした。一緒に乗っていた海外の方はこれまでに飲んだマイタイの中で一番おいしいと絶賛していました。とても飲みやすかったです。
船に乗り込むときやおりるときに足がぬれます。タオルやはおりものを一枚もっていくのをおすすめします。スタッフが手を貸してくれたりします。とても親切でした。
船からの景色は最高です。水平線に夕日がきれいで、太陽が沈むところまでみれました。

There are various cruises, but I think this one is the best. First of all, it's close to nature! You can feel the waves and the wind while boarding barefoot. It's also great that you can take pictures with the cheerful staff and enjoy free drinks. Soaking in the romantic atmosphere while watching the sunset is the best. It would be even better if I could speak more English.

いろんなクルーズがありますが1番イイと思います。まず何と言っても自然に近い！波や風を感じて裸足で乗船。陽気なスタッフと写真を撮ったり、ドリンクもフリーなのがまた嬉しい。サンセットを見ながらロマンチックな雰囲気に浸るのも最高です。後は英語がもっとできるとなお良い。

This was a wonderful ending to our week vacation in Hawaii. The staff on the catamaran were very friendly and helpful and made you feel comfortable and like you were part of their family. The fireworks from this vantage point was a great way to complete our Hawaiian vacation. Would highly recommend this activity.

I was completely satisfied with this thrilling experience! I was looking forward to the show in Las Vegas, and it was on a different level compared to Japanese impersonations. It was pure entertainment. I now have another wonderful memory from our spring break trip with my daughter. The backstage tour was a super VIP experience with welcome champagne and a warm greeting from the performers, allowing us to have a great time. Elvis was so cool. Michael was there too. And Lady Gaga! There was a reveal, and we even got to take pictures together, which was fun. The food was surprisingly delicious, especially since I went in with no expectations for the dinner show. I enjoyed lobster, steak, and dessert, which I rarely get to eat in Japan. We had front-row VIP seats. During the show, the performers came to our seats singing and even gave us a kiss on the cheek as part of the VIP service, making it a fun experience. Overall, the VIP treatment was astonishing, and it was a rare experience that I thoroughly enjoyed.

ドキドキの体験に大満足！！
本場ラスベガスのショーとあって楽しみにしてました。
日本のものまねとはレベルが違いますね。
エンターテイメントでした。
娘と二人の春休み旅行の楽しい思い出が1つふえました。
バックステージツアーはウエルカムシャンパンと出演者のかたたちのお出迎えでチョーVIP待遇で楽しい時間を過ごさせていただきました。
エルビスがかっこよかったです。
マイケルもいましたよ。
ガガ様もね！
タネあかしあり、一緒に写真も撮れて楽しかったです。
料理はディナーショーの料理とあって全然期待せずに行ったのが良かったのか結構美味しかったです！！
日本では食べる機会のないロブスターもステーキもデザートもおいしくいただきました。
席は一番前のVIP席。
ショーの途中歌いながら席に来てくれてほっぺにキスのまたまたVIPサービスに、楽しく観れました。
とにかくびっくりするほどのVIP待遇、めったにできない体験で楽しめました。

I had a wonderful time.
Even though we couldn't communicate with words, everyone is here to have fun, so it's all good.
However, there is only one restroom, so it might be better to limit your beer intake.
The Mai Tai was also quite delicious.

とても素敵な時間を過ごすことができました。
言葉は通じなくても、みんな楽しむために来ているから大丈夫です。
ただし、トイレは一つしかないので、ビールは控えた方がいいかも。
マイタイも十分美味しかったです。

This sail was very beautiful and relaxing. We were able to see the sun go down, ride the waves and have cocktails from the open bar. I would recommend this to anyone looking to relax on the ocean and have a drink.

I have never been sailing, so Hawaii was a terrific place to start. The team was great on this barefoot cruise, we had storage for our sandals and bags, and we enjoyed fresh-made maitais. It was fun watching the experienced crew set the sails, we got quite good speed and a fabulous breeze, and the views were amazing.

We had a wonderful time on the cruise. We met some very nice people, enjoyed the scenery, and even saw some whales. The crew treated us like Kings and kept the drinks flowing. The ship was full, but had plenty of space to mill around and get a good view.

I was a little worried about attending a Luau on top of a parking garage. It turned out to not be a problem. They decorated the venue very nice and we were in the shade the whole time, which really helped. The food was wonderful, with a wide selection for everybody, even the kids. The acts were fantastic! I took a star away for the location not being by the ocean and the tight seating arrangement.

I participated in this tour during my honeymoon in Hawaii. It was a Green Room Monitor Tour, and I got to experience a VIP feeling in the Green Room!

I arrived about 30 minutes late for the tour, so I couldn't see the backstage, but they quickly brought me welcome champagne and guided me to my seat. The champagne was easy to drink and delicious! The lobster and steak were tender, and I enjoyed all the dishes!

In the Green Room tour, drinks are free for one per person, and there is a charge for the second drink, which I felt was a bit pricey at $10 plus tip. I had a seat in the front row, so I could watch the show right in front of me.

The impersonation show featuring Michael Jackson, Lady Gaga, and Elvis had quite a few songs I recognized, and I had a great time! The authentic hula show was also impressive and overwhelming! The performers in the hula show were all beautiful.

There were many foreign audience members around me, and their reactions were lively, which added to the fun! I couldn't understand the English talk, so I was completely lost, but I found myself laughing along.

At the end, I was able to take a photo with someone who resembled Michael Jackson (laughs)!

I highly recommend this tour as you can enjoy delicious food and a show all at once!

Thank you for the wonderful memories!

I would love to participate in a similar monitor tour if I go to Hawaii again!

新婚旅行のハワイでこちらのツアーに参加しました(^^)
グリーンルームモニターツアーだったのですが、
グリーンルームでVIPな気分を味わえました！
ツアー開始時間に30分程遅れてしまい、舞台裏の見学はできなかったのですが、すぐにウェルカムシャンパンを持ってきて頂き席に案内されました。シャンパンも飲みやすくて美味しかったです！
料理のロブスター、ステーキも柔らかくて料理全部美味しくいただきました！
グリーンルームのツアーでは飲み物が1人1杯まで無料で二杯目からは料金がかかるシステムになっていて、
1杯10ドル+チップで少しお高いかな？と感じました。
一番前に席が用意してあり、すぐ目の前でショーを見ることができました。
マイケルジャクソン、レディーガガ、プレスリーのものまねショーは知っている曲が結構あり楽しめました！
本場のフラショーも迫力満点で圧倒されました！
フラショーに出ている方が綺麗な人ばっかりです^_^
周りの観客も外国の方が多くリアクションが大きく又それも楽しかった！
英語が分からずトークは何を言ってるのかちんぷんかんぷんでしたがつられて笑ってました輪
最後にマイケルジャクソン似？（笑）の方と写真が撮れました！

美味しい料理とショーも一度に楽しめオススメですよー！

楽しい思い出をありがとうございました！

又ハワイに行ってこのようなモニターツアーがあったら参加したいです！

The scenery was absolutely beautiful, and I could see Diamond Head clearly. The sunset was beautiful too! Since only English is spoken, it might be better for those who don't understand to avoid this place. It was cold, and the restroom was dirty... that was disappointing.

景色は最高に綺麗で、ダイアモンドヘッドが綺麗に見えました(*^◯^*)
夕日も、綺麗です！
英語しか通じないので、分からない方は避けた方が良いですね〜
寒かった&トイレが汚くて…残念でした（≧∇≦）

We attended as a couple, and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We did the Terrance luau style dining, and it was very good. All the food from the buffet were excellent, and the two hula dancers and a Hawaiian musician created a great atmosphere to enjoy our dinner.

Once the show began, the time flew by. Elvis started the show with some old classic rocks, then Lady Gaga came on. She was hilarious and I thought her piano performance was pretty good. But our favorite was Michael Jackson. Everyone loved him, and boy, he had some moves. He even got the side way moonwalk down to science.

Overall, it was a great night, and I highly recommend this show to anyone!

After work, I headed straight to Hawaii with three friends. After arriving, we slept for about three hours and then participated in a cruise. Unfortunately, all three of us got severely seasick, and we couldn't enjoy the scenery at all.

Since you will be on the boat for quite a long time, I think it would be better to take your time to adjust your condition before participating, rather than going on the day you arrive. I also got the impression that there were hardly any Japanese people there.

仕事帰りその足で友人3人とハワイ旅行へ向かいました。
到着後３時間ほど寝て、こちらのクルーズに参加しました。
結果は３人とも激しく船酔いしてしまい、景色どころではなく終わってしまいました。

結構長い時間乗り続けることになるので、到着した日よりもゆっくりコンディションを整えてから参加されたほうが楽しめると思います。
日本人の方はほとんどいなかった印象です。

fun time! we even saw Whales ! Even though it was cloudy and we saw no sunset we had such a great time we forgot about it!

The boat was quite rocky and the wind was cold, but the sunset was breathtaking! I really felt like I was in the great outdoors.

To be honest, the sunset was just average, but the dessert was delicious.

After finishing dinner, there was quite a long wait until the fireworks, but we ended on a high note with the fireworks! My 80-year-old mother was also very happy.

船は結構揺れて風も冷たかったですが、夕陽は圧巻でした！
大自然の中にいるなぁという感じです。
夕陽は正直、普通でしたが、デザートは美味しかったです。

夕食を食べ終え、花火まですごく時間が空いてしまうのですが、最後に花火で盛り上がりました！
80歳の母も喜んでくれました。

Good time, reasonably priced, not much on the varity of drinks

We had an awesome moment having time with friends with a cocktail in front of the sunset. I will do it again in my next trip in waikiki, for sure!

We used this for a company trip with a total of 23 people. I think it was a great value cruise with a beautiful sunset and unlimited drinks. We were the only Japanese guests, and we enjoyed communicating with the international guests. However, a few people got seasick, which made for a tough time, and I regret that. I recommend that those who are prone to seasickness take some medication in advance.

総勢23名の社員旅行で利用しました。綺麗なサンセットとドリンクも飲み放題でとってもお得なクルージングだと思います。日本人客は私たちしかおらず、海外の方とコミュニケーションをとりながら楽しめました。ただ、数人船酔いしてしまい、辛い時間になってしまったことが悔やまれます。船酔いする方は前もって酔い止めなど飲むことをお勧めします。

While visiting the beautiful Island of Oahu, I started to reminisce of the last time I came here and it was for the last Michael Jackson performance back in the 90's. I was searching for a dinner and show activity and I was fortunate that I came across hawaiiactivities.com - Veltra because they have a 2 For 1 Review Rebate Special. I was traveling with my family, and so we booked for the Green Room & Dinner Show package. As we checked in at the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, we were greeted with warm alohas from everyone working. We started on an amazing tour of the theater and got to see some of the marvelous collections of Elvis and Michael Jackson. The dinner was amazing, and the we had the cocktails coming all night long. The show was amazing! It brought back many fond memories of my teenage life growing up listening to Elvis. I was having many flashbacks as I was singing to all the songs and rocking the night away. But unlike many shows in Waikiki, Rock A Hula has something special and particular to their show which is... Hawaiian Performances. Hula dancers, chants, and acts that resembled Elvis's presence here in Hawaii while sharing the Aloha spirit. This show is highly recommended if you love old school pop and classical songs. Thank you Veltra & Stars of Paradise for this wonderful time I had.

It was a wonderful cruising experience, and I felt very good. You can feel the wind and waves much closer than on a large cruiser. If you come to Hawaii, you definitely should go on this.

素敵なクルージングで　とても気持ち良かったです。
大型のクルーザーより　風も波も近くに感じられます。
ハワイに来たなら　絶対乗るべきです。
