Beautiful Cruise, full of Aloha vibe!
This was a really lovely experience. The crew was extremely welcoming, helpful, attentive and full of Aloha! The sunset cruise path was smooth, great sights of Waikiki beaches, hotel skyline, and of course the beautiful sunset was the main feature.
The crew knew exactly when to help with pics and how to position the boat for the best views.
We highly recommend , you will enjoy this experience.
