"Egregiously unprofessional company. DO NOT BOOK HERE! They lie about the reason for cancellation when they do cancel on you, and they don't let you know they cancel until 3 hours prior to departure. I spoke to someone who works there that told me that they just say that the boat has "maintenance issues" when they are unable to sell enough tickets. They don't..." Read more

"We did the Friday firework boat tour had a great time! Parking and the dock were easy to find. It was quite windy that night so it was very wavy. We noticed some people got seasick before dinner was served so make sure you take medication before! (It is noted in the confirmation email as well). The sunset was beautiful. it was almost 3 hours long and firewor..." Read more

"Signed up for the sunset dinner cruise.  What I did not know is that this is a smaller size boat and not a bigger cruise ship.  The cruise takes you into the ocean for a nice view of the Waikiki city skyline but there were big waves that rocked the boat the entire time.  By the time our dinner came most of the passengers were seasick and unable to eat!  Staf..."

"What a Perfect way to start our day!  Watching the light across land and sea spread and brighten, was the most peaceful awakening we (husband & I) have had in a while.  It was simply beautiful. You can tell the crew love their jobs because of the cheerful care they give.  Capt John truly makes a hearty effort to find you whales. When he found ours on..." Read more

"Captain said a brief introduction and that was it. Saw no whales, no one spoke to us after that. No announcement was made that we were heading back. The boat just headed back to the dock and we all noticed and walked to the exit. Basically just went for a boat ride and breakfast."

"Whale watching checked off  my bucket list. Took the late breakfast 9am tour. The captain and crew were wonderful. Breakfast was freshly prepared taro bread french toast and fresh fruit. It was a successful trip, as we got to see several whales. All in all a wonderful time spent on the ocean"

"The crew and trip was amazing. Very helpful staff and the fact that it is whale season, we caught a couple playing off the coast. Dinner was cooked to perfection while dining under the stars. Last minute selection for us and I could not have been more pleased. Highly recommend this cruise to anyone looking for a great dinner cruise."

"The food was excellent! The crew were friendly and attentive.  We found a whale and her calf within 15 min.  She stayed with us putting on a show almost the whole time! Of course, that isn't guaranteed."

"This sunset cruise offers amazing views, delicious food and attentive staff! We sat on the upper deck and had a great time watching the sun set and the full moon rise! We were lucky to go on a Friday and see the Hilton fireworks show from the water!

Highly recommend you book this tour!"

"If I didn't have to choose a rating, I would have given this tour a ZERO!! This was the most terrible tour I have ever been to. The crew and the captain were aware of the bad condition of the water, and yet they still took a chance and sailed with more than 70 people on board. More than half of the people were throwing up and became severely sick! We asked t..." Read more

"My wife and I booked a Sunset Dinner Cruise out of Honolulu for Sept. 27th on board the Prince Kuhio. The evening was gorgeous and the ship was full. Unfortunately the boat engine broke down before we set sail. The captain offered a choice of staying in the harbor and having the prepared dinner with a 50% refund or leaving with a 100% refund. We chose to..." Read more

"Overall, the food, attendants and experience itself were great. Whether you are local or a tourist this is something different you can experience. A couple things to be mindful of when booking, if the wind is strong, it will make the waves a bit choppy which in turn can make some seasick. We did have one in are group, but the attendants and chef were kind en..." Read more

"Prince Kuhio was a great cruise! It was a whole nother perspective to see Waikiki beach from a boat, and it doesn't get any better to enjoy the sunset with beer in hand. Captain Tracey was personable and knowledable. Food was all cooked aboard and the fish tasted amazing, (the beef looked great also). Music was islandy and on point. Dinner staff (Stephanie)..."

They only asked my friend replaced food with an alternative and when I asked if I could have the same I got treated like only if they had left overs. After that I did not want to eat.
