Even though it was cloudy so not a great sunset, it was still a great trip. We learned so much about the plants and birds and the crew was awsome.

We had the best time I cannot remember the guy’s name, but the one who drove the boat he was amazing. He made it really informative for us and again I don’t do names. Well the gal who was the bartender and did everything else. She was also amazing. It was one of the best things to do there. I highly recommend it.

Nice ride up the river. Didn’t stay out as long as we thought we would and the sunset was behind the mountain. Nice trip though

We enjoyed our sunset cruise as it was the perfect mix of history, Hawaiian culture and beautiful scenery. My husband and I have done many sunset dinner cruises and wanted to do something different. This was perfect! The drinks were plentiful and Becca was always there to make sure guests were having a good time. Captain Stevie was also very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this cruise to anyone young or old as the boat is incredibly stable. The river makes for a very smooth ride.

We had a group of 10 friends in the over-50 age group, and although we didn’t get to see the sunset due to Mother Nature, we had an excellent time. Both the bartender and the captain were funny, friendly, and amazing. The selection of alcohol was wide and varied, and the snacks complemented the drinks perfectly.
