This was not at all what I thought it was when I booked it. You do not need to dress up for this and definitely dont wear your nice shoes since they dont let you take your shoes anyways. Thinking about wearing a dress? Dont. A simple bathing suit and cover up would be just fine. You also will need to eat real dinner either before you go or after you go. This is more like being in a bar but on a boat. If I had known in advance, I wouldn't have booked it. It was $300 and definitely not mine or my husband's scene. We sat on the back quietly the entire time. The music was loud, the boat was small which made everyone else seem louder and the fireworks may have lasted 3 minutes at the very end of the cruise. Im not saying dont do it by any means but you should at least know what youre doing before you spend that kind of money on it.
The tour was hosted by 2 captains and a small crew. We were welcomed with great hospitality and took the time to explain how sailing was done by the stars 🌟 excellent crew excellent ship 🚢 excellent time. The firework show was like the icing on the cake. If you decide to book this tour, there is one more surprise that you will get. But you have to be there. Aloha and Mahalo.
We were really disappointed with the dinner provided. Thought it would be more of a buffet style. Was also expecting a different type of boat. Crew was great!
Very friendly crew and a smooth ride. Our captain did his best to get us near an unexpected breaching whale at the end of the season and we still made it in position to see the lovely fireworks.
Excellent, crew was top notch and bonus we saw whales breaching! Food and drinks were fantastic. Fireworks view was fabulous.
They left without us and refused to offer even a partial refund. Nowhere in the materials they sent did they mention arriving 20 minutes early.
We booked this excursion for a romantic night on the sea with a beautiful view of the fireworks. We got so much more than that, the crew saw whales breaching and sped off to get closer so we could all see! It was an amazing experience that I highly recommend! Did I also mention free drinks??
Start with the food, very nice but the size was that of a 5 star dining experience. Entire mud cake piece would fit on a parfait spoon easily, laughable. 3 course snack sizes & tickets not cheap. Theme was not carried through out the night. Each spoke a little of their skills, then 1 only 10min visit to our table, not as advertised. Needed to have other things going on while eating. Due a card, color etc etc. Disappointing night for what we both had resumed from what we read we would our experience.
This was a great excursion. The crew was very accommodating and professional. The views were very exhilarating and intriguing.
We actually did three tours with Hawaii nautical. Started with the whale watching in the morning, then snorkeling with sea turtles, finishing the night with the dinner cruise. The staff was awesome (same all day) and very fun to hang out with and chat with. We luckily were able to see a whale shark which made the evening that little bit more special, but enjoyed even hearing the safety briefing 3 times as captain chris put a funny spin on ch time. If you have the chance, don’t waste your time looking at other options, go with these guys, same staff or not they are the best choice.
