All Reviews for Social Cruises & Activities

It was my first time participating, but I had a wonderful time thanks to the friendly atmosphere created by the crew. Since it was Friday night, watching the fireworks while drinking champagne was incredibly exciting. I definitely recommend the Friday night cruise.

はじめての参加でしたが、クルーの皆さんのアットホームな雰囲気にたいへん楽しい時間を過ごさせていただきました。金曜日の夜でしたので、シャンパンを飲みながらの花火もすごくエキサイティングでした。金曜日の夜のクルーズは絶対にオススメです。

At first, I was a bit nervous because there were few Japanese people, but once I got drunk with the free drinks, it didn't matter that we couldn't communicate!

日本人が少なく始めは
びびってまたが、フリードリンクで酔っ払ったら、言葉が通じなくても関係ありません！

Great boat. Fantastic, funny, best crew. Cold beers. And beautiful sunset. Highly recommend!

Very fun, we had a great time. Definitely the best way to enjoy a true Hawaiian sunset.

The departure location was also close to the hotel where I stayed. Although it was the arrival day, the meeting time was just right. I usually watch fireworks from the beach, but seeing them from the sea was powerful and moving. Even though I was traveling alone, I made friends with a pair of women at the meeting place and was able to have a great time.

出発場所も滞在ホテルから近く
到着日でしたが集合時間もちょうど良い時間でした。
花火はいつもビーチから見ていますが、海から見る花火は迫力あって感動しました。
ひとりたびでしたが、集合場所からふたり組の女性と仲良くなり、楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。

I had a great and refreshing experience last time, so I decided to repeat it. Unfortunately, I couldn't see the wonderful sunset like I did before, but it's still recommended as a great way to wrap up your trip.

前回たいへん楽しく、爽快だったのでリピートしました。残念ながら前回のような素晴らしい夕陽は拝めなかったのですが、旅の締めくくりには時間的にもお勧めです。

This is my second time participating.
There was no guidance in Japanese, and more than half of the passengers were non-Japanese, but that international vibe is GREAT! While feeling a bit tipsy with Mai Tais and sparkling wine, I chatted with the foreigner next to me, saw a pod of about 20 dolphins jumping up close, and witnessed a very beautiful sunset—all for a great price!!
By the way, wearing rain gear or a jacket for warmth is essential!

今回で2回目の参加。
日本語の案内もなく、乗客は半分以上日本人以外ですが、その海外感がＧＯＯＤ！マイタイやスパークリングワインでほろ酔い気分の中、隣の外国人とも会話して、20頭くらいのイルカ群れのジャンプも間近で見て、とっても美しいサンセットも見て、このお値段は安い！！
ちなみにレインウエアやパーカーなどの防寒着は必須ですよ～

I've always wanted to ride on a catamaran that I see at the beach. This time, my wife and I, along with another couple, boarded the boat. There were few Japanese guests, mostly foreigners, with about 50 people on board in total.

Under the cheerful captain's signal, we departed from the beach in front of the Sheraton. Drinks were served right away as we headed out to sea. The drinks were all-you-can-drink, with Mai Tai being the main offering, dispensed from a tap similar to a draft beer server. There were also options for beer, champagne, and non-alcoholic beverages.

We sailed around the back of Diamond Head and returned. By the time we came back, we were able to enjoy the night view of Waikiki during sunset, which felt like quite a bargain. I highly recommend it.

*Note: You won't be able to use the restroom for about 1 hour and 30 minutes during the cruise, so be careful not to drink too much.*

前々からビーチで見るたびに一度乗ってみたいと思っていたカタマラン。
今回、我々夫婦と友人夫婦4人で乗船しました。
日本人客は少なく、ほとんど外国の方でした。総勢50名位が乗船。
陽気な船長の出向の合図のもと、シェラトン前のビーチを出発。
すぐに飲み物が配られ、沖へ向かいます。
飲み物は飲み放題。船名となっているマイタイが主で、生ビールのサーバーのような注ぎ口からマイタイが出てきます。ビール、シャンパン、ノンアルコールなどもあります。
ダイヤモンドヘッドの裏手まで航行して戻ってきます。
サンセットと戻る頃にはワイキキの夜景まで見る事ができてかなりのお得感。
お薦めします。
※航行中約1時間30分トイレに行けないので飲みすぎは禁物です。

I participated in a sunset sailing for the first time. The meeting place was conveniently located in front of a hotel on Waikiki Beach, and I was really looking forward to it since it was my first time on a yacht. Unlike a cruise on a large ship, I think the thrill of being on a yacht and the closeness to the crew and other passengers is a big attraction. The crew was friendly, and there were many drink options, which was great. However, the strong rocking of the boat and the cold as the sun set meant that I couldn't get a refill of cold drinks, even with the all-you-can-drink option. I think it can be enjoyable, but it gets quite cold, so warm clothing is essential.

初めて、サンセットセーリングに参加しました。
集合場所もワイキキビーチのホテル前で便利でしたし、ヨットは初めてでしたので、とても楽しみにしていました。
大型船でのクルーズと違って、ヨットならではのスリルとクルーやほかの乗客の方との距離の近さが魅力だと思います。
クルーもフレンドリーで、飲み物の種類も多くてよかったです。
でも、かなりの迫力の揺れと、日が暮れての寒さで、飲み放題でも冷たい飲み物のおかわりはできませんでした。
それなりに、楽しめると思いますが、かなり寒いので防寒は必須です。

A long time ago when I visited Waikiki, I took a catamaran ride, so I requested it again this time. The boat was sturdier than before, and I think it was quite fast just with the sails. Everyone was cheerful, and it was a fun 90 minutes.

ずいぶん以前にワイキキに来た時に、カタマランに乗船したので、今回も頼みました。
以前より、しっかりした船で、帆だけでもかなりのスピードが出ていたと思います。皆さん陽気で、楽しい90分でした。

I was worried about finding the check-in location, but I quickly figured it out, which was a relief. Among the crew and passengers, we were the only Japanese, but that actually made me feel more like a traveler and lifted my spirits.

For the first drink, almost everyone had a sweet cocktail, but after quickly finishing that, we enjoyed unlimited champagne from the second drink (not sure if it was Champagne). Other passengers talked to us, but let's do our best with gestures here.

We toasted while watching Waikiki illuminated by the sunset, toasted again while enjoying the sunset, toasted to the night view of Waikiki, and finally toasted to the supermoon. It was the best cruise that provided various scenes.

Note 1: You will get wet up to your knees when boarding.
Note 2: Warm clothing is essential.

受付場所が分かるか不安でしたが、直ぐに分かり一安心。
受付のスタッフからクルー、そして乗客を含め日本人は我々のみでしたが、逆に旅行に来てる感があって気持ちも上がりました。
スタートの１杯目はほぼ全員、甘めのカクテルですが、さっと飲みほして２杯目からはシャンパン飲み放題(シャンパーニュかは未確認)
他の乗客から話しかけられましたが、ここは身振り手振りで頑張りましょう
夕日に照らされたワイキキ見ながら乾杯、サンセットを見ながらまた乾杯、ワイキキの夜景に乾杯、最後はスーパームーンに乾杯と色々なシーンを提供してくれる最高のクルーズでした。
注意１　乗船時に膝まで濡れます
注意２　防寒対策必至

This was our second time using the service with my family of three. Unfortunately, it started to rain lightly just as we set sail, and it was cold and windy, so our spirits weren't very high. However, since this is an activity that involves nature, we tried to shift our mindset and enjoy it. The crew was kind, lending out bath towels to protect us from the cold and rain.

今回家族３人で２回目の利用でした。生憎出港と同時に小雨が降り始め風も強く寒い中でのセーリングでしたのでテンションは上がりませんでしたが自然が相手のアクティビティなので気持ちを切り替えて楽しむようにしました。クルーの方は寒さ・雨よけにバスタオルを貸し出し配ってくれたり親切でしたよ。

Our Captain Ryan and bartender Phillippe were great. Nice way to see the fireworks. We weren't interested in drinking, but the bar was open.

Food, service, entertainment, timing, and organization were all outstanding!! Loved our first luau!

I participated in this tour with my 16-year-old son. The backstage tour allowed us to experience a bit of the behind-the-scenes world and the view from the stage to the audience, which was a very luxurious time. The show featuring Elvis and Michael was incredibly impressive, and my son enjoyed it even though he didn't know the songs. Especially, the fire dance was intense, and being in the front row added to the excitement.

The meals were generous and delicious; the American couple sitting next to us also mentioned how good the meat was. (Personally, I really enjoyed the conversation in English with that couple.) While you can enjoy just watching the show, this tour allowed us to have a total experience.

息子（16歳）との二人旅で今回のツアーに参加しました。バックステージツアーで舞台裏、ステージ上からの観客席展望と演出者達の世界を少し体験でき、またショーも最前列で鑑賞と大変贅沢な時間となります。
ショーもエルビス、マイケルと非常に見ごたえがあり、息子も曲が分からなくてもノリノリで楽しんでいました。特に、ファイヤーダンスは最前列ならではの熱気も感じ緊張感がハンパありません。
食事もボリュームがあり全て美味しかったです、隣に座ったアメリカ人夫婦もお肉が美味しいと言ってました。（個人的には、その夫婦との英語での会話も非常に楽しかったです）
ショーを観るだけでも楽しめますが、このツアーでトータル的に楽しむ事ができました。

The green room experience is a must do experience, especially for those that enjoy theater shows! The family all loved it and the opportunity to meet the stars of the show, talk with them and take pictures while sipping champagne and eating hors d’oeuvres was fun and insightful. Elvis was especially friendly and personable! The food was very good, especially the tender steak and creamy mashed potatoes. The Polynesian dancers were exciting to watch and the sword and fire welding dancer was amazing! A good mix of the Hawaiian culture with the feel of a rock concert that the whole family can appreciate and enjoy! We would definitely recommend it if you have not been before!

I was expecting a ship for about 100 people, but it turned out to be a boat for about 30 people. The food tasted good, but there were few options and it felt cheap for the price. Alcohol was unlimited up to two drinks, but for those who don't drink, it didn't matter. I was really disappointed that it was so different from what was advertised on the website.

100人程度の船と思っていると30人程度のボートでした。食事の味は良かったですが種類が少なく値段の割にチープです。アルコールも2杯までが、飲み放題となっていましたが、酒を飲まない人には関係無く、どこまでもホームページと違うのにはほんとガッカリです

We departed while there was still daylight and enjoyed the view of Diamond Head and the streets of Waikiki from the sea as the sunset transitioned into the night. It was a wonderful tour where I could enjoy various drinks like Mai Tais, beer, and champagne, creating great memories. The captain and staff were very friendly and accommodating, making me feel welcome even when I asked for refills multiple times. I have been to Hawaii more than ten times, and if I have the chance to go again, I would love to do this tour once more.

まだ、日のあるうちに出発して、夕日が沈む時から夜景まで海からダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの街並みを眺めつつ、マイタイやビール、シャンパンまで色々と楽しめて、とても良い思い出に残るツアーでした。
また、船長やスタッフの方もとても気さくで良い方で、お代わりを何度もしても気持ちよく接してくれて良かったです。
これまでハワイには１０回以上行ってますが、次回行くときがあればまた行きたいと思います。

You will wait for about 30 minutes at the meeting point. After taking a group photo with your boarding pass, you will board the boat. Since you will be wading in seawater up to your knees, please wear shorts or a skirt and bring a towel to dry your feet. The explanations will all be in English, but I think you'll manage even if you don't understand everything. It can get cold on the boat when the sun goes down, so it's good to have a proper jacket, especially for Japanese people. I found it tough in a thin shirt during the second half. The restroom is quite basic, so it's better to take care of that beforehand. It was a lot of fun to enjoy drinks and chat with people from various countries. I would like to participate again next time on a Friday.

集合場所で30分程待ちます。搭乗券名目でグループ毎に写真を撮ってから乗船。膝下まで海水に浸かるので、短パンやスカート着用、足を拭くタオル持参下さい。説明は全て英語ですが、出来なくても何とかなると思います。船上は日が陰ると寒いため、日本人的にはしっかりした上着があると良いです。薄手のシャツで後半辛かったです。お手洗いは簡素なものなので、事前に済ませておく方が良いかと思います。色々な国から来た人と飲みながら盛り上がり、とても楽しいひと時でした。次回は金曜に参加したいです。

My daughters and their families and I all went on the Mai Tai sunset cruise! The boat captain let my 13 year old “drive the boat” for a couple of minutes so we could get a picture! The Mai Tais and sodas for the young ones were unlimited. The sunset views were spectacular! Take this cruise! It’s great for all ages!!!

I reserved a guaranteed seat in the front center, but today (the 24th), we were all together, and we had to line up for entry, ending up in seats at the end. However, the hula dance was significantly more wonderful and powerful than the dance I saw later at the Hawaiian Cultural Center, Star of Honolulu. The music and the emcee were truly American entertainers.

While I was dissatisfied with the seating, I was very satisfied overall, including the meal.

前方中央席確約で予約しましたが、今日（２４日）は、皆一緒とのこと、列に並ばされ、入場、端の席になってしまいましたが、フラダンスは、そのあと見たハワイアン文化センター、スターオブホノルルのダンスより格段にすばらしく、大迫力でした。音楽も、司会もアメリカのエンタテナーそのもの。
席は不満でしたが、食事も含め大満足でした。

I unexpectedly got to see a lot of whales. I didn't see this many even during whale watching. The other guests were all foreigners except for us. But we had no trouble at all and had a great time.
Everything was fun, but this cruise was my favorite. I definitely want to ride it again when I come to Hawaii!

思いがけずクジラさんを沢山見ることができました。ホーエルウオッチングでもこんなに見られませんでした。お客さんは私たち以外は外国の方たちでした。でも何一つ困ることもなくとても楽しめました。
全て楽しかったけれど、今回このクルージングが一番気に入りました。ハワイに来たら必ずまた乗りたいです！

I participated with my 3-year-old child. Even though I can't drink alcohol and this was my fifth time in Hawaii, I felt it was a shame I hadn't participated before because it was absolutely amazing. I didn't bring my camera because I was worried about getting it wet, but I don't think you'll get wet unless something really unusual happens. If you have a phone, there's a chance it could slip and fall into the ocean if you drop it, so I think a camera that you can hang around your neck is more practical.

3歳の子供と参加しました。
自分自身もアルコールは飲めない・ハワイは5回目でしたが、今まで参加しなかったのが勿体なかったと感じるほどに最高でした。
濡れるのを心配してカメラは持って行っていませんでしたが、よっぽどのことをしなければ濡れることはないと思います。携帯などの方が、万が一床に落とすとそのまま海に滑り落ちてしまうかもしれないので、首から下げるカメラの方が使い勝手はいいと思います。

The overall excitement of the venue and the interactions between guests created a great atmosphere. However, the location of the venue was a bit difficult to find, which caused some confusion.

会場全体の盛り上がり、客同士のふれあいなど、雰囲気つくりがうまかった。
会場の場所がわかりにくい場所にあるため、少しまごまごした。

Just awesome it was my friends birthday, and she loved it.

I participated in early December. Unfortunately, it was cloudy, so we couldn't enjoy the sunset sailing, but the night view of Honolulu from the sea was beautiful, and both the crew and passengers were cheerful, making for a fun time.

12月はじめに参加しました。
生憎の曇りで、サンセットセーリングとはいきませんでしたが、海上から見るホノルルの夜景は綺麗でしたし、クルーも乗船客も陽気で楽しい時間でした。

We had dinner first, and then the show started after we finished eating. I was very satisfied with both the meal and the show. I would like to go again if the show content changes.

先にご飯食べてから、食べ終わってからショーが始まる流れでした。
ご飯の内容、ショーの内容も非常に満足です。
またショーの内容が変わったら行ってみたいです。

Observations:
- I thought the price was high for what was offered.
- The meeting place was hard to find.
- The food was at the level of school lunch menus.

気づき
・内容の割には料金が高いと思った。
・集合場所がわかりにくい。
・料理は学校給食メニューレベル。

Had an amazing time with Phillipe and Zach! They kept it relaxed, fun, and super funny! Such a fun cruise! Funny pictures with costumes, constant jokes, great music, and Zach the bartender was running around grabbing people drinks left and right! I hardly had to ever go back to the actual bar to grab a drink. Incredible time! Would do it again in a heartbeat! Thanks guys!

The Rock-a-Flash show I attended was an incredibly luxurious and enjoyable experience. First, I received a backstage pass at the reception and was able to enter the venue before other guests. It felt a bit exclusive! I was led into a dazzling and beautiful room where I enjoyed champagne (we had non-alcoholic champagne) and tropical-themed appetizers, really savoring the VIP atmosphere. After that, I got to peek into the costume room where Elvis and the dancers' outfits were kept, and I was able to touch some of the actual props while taking photos and having fun. I even got to stand on stage, which was a bit exciting (laughs). As the mood lifted, it was time for dinner. The course meal was luxurious and delicious. My favorite was the truffle mashed potatoes, which had a taste I had never experienced before and left me very satisfied. After finishing dessert, the show began! The performances by Elvis, Michael, and the dancers were truly professional and amazing. Among them, the fire knife act was particularly impressive, and sitting in the front row, I could feel the heat of the flames, which was thrilling and nerve-wracking. The fun time flew by, but I was able to have a truly wonderful night.

今回参加したロック・ア・フラショーは大変贅沢で楽しいひとときでした。まずは受付でバックステージパスカードを受け取り首から下げ他のお客様より先に会場の中へ。ちょっと優越感！煌びやかで素敵なお部屋に通されシャンパン（私達はノンアルコールシャンパン）と南国チックなアペタイザーを頂きながらＶＩＰな気分も味わいました。その後、エルビスやダンサーが着る衣裳部屋をのぞかせてもらったり実際に使う道具を触らせてもらったり写真も撮りながら楽しみました。ステージにも立ちちょっと興奮（笑）だんだん気分も盛り上がりディナータイムへ。コース料理はどれも豪華で美味しかったです。特に私が気にいったのはトリュフ入りのマッシュポテト。今まで食べたことのない味で大満足でした。デザートまで完食してしばらくするとショーの始まり！！エルビス、マイケル、ダンサーの皆さんのパフォーマンスはさすがプロという感じで素晴らしかったです。その中でもファイヤーナイフはかなりの迫力があり一番前の席だったこともあって炎の熱さが伝わりドキドキハラハラでした。楽しい時間はあっという間に過ぎてしまいましたがとても素敵な夜を過ごすことができました。
