"Glass Bottom Boat Cruise"

January 2019

The punctuality of the crew was above expectations. Their humor an knowledge of certain scenic points and water ways is exceptional. I would gladly continue to seek out a crew as fine as this one. The entire cruise is age friendly so there wont be any issues or conscerns.

Tip: They serve complimentary drinks on board and the timeframe of the entire cruise meets the exact length mentioned on their website.

It was a very relaxing and scenic tour with good stories, music, and dancing. We were able to see some fish and turtles along the way. Well worth the price.

"Relaxin and maxin’ On the Ocean"

October 2018

We have family in town and it is there 3rd time visiting and was looking for something unique and different too that wasn't too far on the extreme side. A few friends recommended Hawaii Glass Bottom Boat Tours and I think it was the perfect fit. They offer a few rides during the day and also at sunset and the evening. You can't go wrong with the view at all. You will see diamond head ana great view of the city that you can probably post on a picture in your home. The fishes were a little slow today but they had back up with some fish food to bring them out which was great for the kids onboard. A few turtles popped up and overall my family was pleased and had great pictures and video to show their friends and family back home. I would highly recommend for anyone that wants to see a little bit of awesomeness of the sea life here but still stay chill at the same time!

Tip: Eat Some sort of Ginger or ginger cookies prior in case the motion of the ocean is not your friend

"Wonderful Refreshing Cruise"

June 2018

My Daughter booked the Glass Bottom boat tour as a last minute tour, and were very pleased that we did. Very nice crew aboard and a Pod of Porpoises followed out boat for some time. We did see a few Turtle's but a little to far away to photograph, The water was so beautiful and the cool breeze was very welcome. We very much enjoyed our trip. Thank You Reserve Direct for a very welcome trip. Will gladly recommend to anyone.

Tip: Book and pay all of your tours in advance. It makes everything run so much smoother.

"WILL NOT REFUND YOUR MONEY"

Reviewed July 10, 2020

Better customer service! We live in Canada and I have been trying for months to get a refund on the 10 person trip we booked. Was told they are working on refunds, now emails bounce back, phone calls are not returned and No refund. Very unprofessional. We are all suffering and my senior parents paid for this as a gift for their children and grandchildren, and would like their money back!

"Knowledgeable and Fun"

Reviewed July 06, 2020

This glass bottom boat tour was great with kids and adults alike. The owner and his wife led the tour and they were knowledgeable and very friendly. The scenery of a boat tour off Waikiki is hard to beat and being able to see the fish and wrecks without getting wet was a plus with small kids. Highly recommend for families and visitors.

"Didn’t show up for the tour or call to cancel"

Reviewed June 30, 2020

If you choose to book with this company, be prepared to sit on a hot pier for at least 30 minutes and leave disappointed because the tour guild stood you up. I really wish I could give them 5 stars but when you don’t show up or call people on the tour to cancel, it’s tough. They Never called, but I finally received an email apologizing for scheduling error, three days later and said they would be refunding me. Personally I feel like it was very unprofessional and not good business practices.
