Amazing views! Wonderful crew - Amazing views of the fireworks, it felt like we had the best location on the water among the different boats! The crew was absolutely fantastic too, extremely knowledgeable and helpful. We learned about upcoming things to do in the area and a local farmers market!

Great Way to see the Friday night Fireworks! Go! - We LOVED this! Seeing the fireworks from the ocean was awesome! The water was rough but our captain expertly maneuvered the boat and it didn’t feel rough or choppy.

Use them for fireworks show - Great company to use to see the Friday night fireworks. Very professional! Solid hour trip. Get there early for parking. Small public lot to the east.

Waikiki Friday Night Fireworks - If you are in Oahu and in Waikiki on Friday, you MUST do the Glass Bottom boat tour to see the Friday night fireworks, it was an amazing place to view this spectacular event and you will not regret it at all. They are not far from Ala Moana and definitely on the TO DO List for Waikiki.

In the middle "3". - Our tour was changed, the glass bottom boat was not available. We were put on a sail boat instead. Seating was far less comfortable. We took a night trip so that we could watch fireworks from the water, this we did get to see. So I have a split rating overall. I had to select "yes or no" as to would I recommend it to a friend. The change from one boat to another was very disappointing. However the crew were very hospitable and we did get to see the fireworks.

Sounds Interesting but Not Really - We're in Hawaii for our honeymoon and thought that a fireworks show on the ocean was a unique experience and wanted to try it. The fireworks were amazing and we had a good time overall but honestly, there was nothing else interesting other than the fireworks itself. The boat ride on the way out to the ocean was pretty normal and they put music for us to listen to on the intercom. If I could go back in time I wouldn't have done this cruise as the price was way too expensive for what you're getting. I would recommend just viewing the fireworks on the ground, it is free and you're not missing out on much. The description also mentioned that we'd get a water bottle but we didn't receive anything.

Not worth it - No wonder they have such an airtight waiver. The step into the boat from the ramp only goes about 75% of the way across, leaving a big gap and so my 76yo mother slipped and slammed into the railing, bruising her ribs. The bathroom wasn't set up for their guests so there was no light, no toilet paper and the flush pump thing wasn't set up right either. Totally not worth it for a 5 minute fireworks show.
