The atmosphere on the ship was very good. There were music and dance performances. After boarding the ship, there was a welcome drink, as well as some self-service cheese cookies and fruits. Our dinner included lobster and steak, as well as two drinks. The only drawback is that the bartender's cocktail was very poor. It was just overly sweet and had a very weak alcohol flavor. Overall, the experience on this ship was quite good.

We took the first boat out and it was not very crowded. We were able to spread out over several windows. The kids were entranced! They excitedly pointed out huge trevally, sharks, and pretty reef fish. We even saw three graceful spotted eagle rays. This tour has expanded since I went last with a few new sections of artificial reef, which will be amazing in a few years of the ocean taking them over. They have sections of two airplanes which is where we saw the dozing sharks. The best part of course is the two ship wrecks. I've dove these and done the tour. The sub is close enough to enjoy the wreck without being a diver. His diving was really impressive. They gave us plenty of passes to see as much as we could at 100 feet. Narration was good and informative if a little loud. Absolutely recommend this tour!

Location 3.5: Kewalo Harbor off of Ala Moana Blvd in Honolulu Oahu, Hawaii. This is a few miles to…read morethe west of Waikiki beach and not a short walk from there. You can drive, take a taxi, bus or Uber, or the Prince Kuhio staff can arrange pickup and drop off for you at an additional cost. There is plenty of paid parking at the harbor. Service 5: Super nice and friendly staff, all the way from the reception team to the photographer, the servers, the bartender, the chef and the captain. Ambiance 5: The enthusiasm of the staff rubs off on the guests. It is a happy gathering with breathtaking views. We took the Friday night dinner-cruise which lasted longer (and was more costly) so that we could enjoy the Hilton Hawaiian Village fireworks. The ship 3: The Prince Kuhio was first commissioned in 1984 as a passenger ferry. In 2020, she became part of the Prince Kuhio Tours family and was converted for use in scenic dining cruises. It can accommodate up to 138 passengers with plenty of outdoor and indoor space for dining, cocktails, and sightseeing. The upper, open deck where we sat, has 2 person and 4 person tables with all bench seats facing forward. The set up is optimized for sightseeing which is great. Viewing-wise, every seat is a good seat. Accommodation-wise, the setup is simple and not really fine-dining; hard seats with no cushioning, no tablecloths or cloth napkins, no metal silverware and no glassware. There is a bar facing the dining tables which at the time of our visit in August 2025 only served soft drinks and non-alcoholic mixers. For some undisclosed reason no alcohol was being sold on board but guests were encouraged to bring their own, which we did! Not sure if this is a long-term situation or temporary. The alcohol situation is not clearly stated on their website so if you plan to be drinking you might want to inquire ahead of time whether you should bring your own. The lower deck is enclosed and views are limited compared to the upper deck. The admission price for the lower deck is a little less ($115 vs. $132 at the time of our visit). The restrooms are aft on the lower deck. Again pretty basic. Boarding and seating 3: We got there plenty of time ahead of the scheduled boarding but there was already a long line outside. There was very little supervision. The line was disorganized and people were cutting in and jumping the line. We were greeted cheerfully at the entrance, checked in, and photographed for a separately-sold souvenir photo. Although we had paid for upper deck seating as a family of four, by the time we got there all tables were taken. Again there was no supervision by the staff and it was kind of a "free for all". We had to personally negotiate with the other guests (who had spread out over multiple tables) to secure a 4-seat table. This was a little chaotic and unexpected. Food 4: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner have different menus. We had taken the Sunset Dinner Cruise. Dinner included a garden salad, an entrée and a dessert (cheesecake). For the entrée, you are limited to Fish (Catch of the Day) or Beef Short Ribs. We all had the fish and it was delicious and nicely plated. Given the amount of people that they feed in as short as a time, I do not know how they do it but it came out really well. We met the chef who was going around and meeting the guests after the dinner was served, and he told us that everything is done fresh and on premises in real time. Hats off to the chef and the staff! Drinks 3: As mentioned earlier, they only served soft drinks and mixers at the time of our visit in August 2025. No alcohol was sold on board but patrons were encouraged to bring their own. Suggest you check ahead of time with Prince Kuhio Tours whether this is still the situation. The Last Word 4: The breathtaking views, the friendly crew and the delicious (albeit limited in options) food offerings elevate this experience to a solid 4. I wish they could do better with the boarding process and the seating arrangements. Overall a great experience!

The salad had a really yummy sweet papaya sauce. Cheesecake standard but very yummy too! Best food on a boat. They even got our baby some fish and noodles and Cheetos. Service: Alex was so kind and attentive. My son got sea sick and she packed his food, gave me barf bags and a towel. She showed a spot where it was less rocky. She was lovely interacting with the children. Showed them all she decorated. Ambience: very chill vibe, clean bathrooms, Desiree was a cool bartender making everyone comfortable. It was very fun experience for our family. We got great pictures with Diamond head and the sunset. Captain was kind to take pictures while steering the ship. Loved it and will do again when Oahu!

But also featured were places like the open market in Chinatown and the Ying Leong Look Fun Noodle Factory. I love how personal this tour is. Our group was really excellent. Everyone was on time and sang a rousing rendition of Happy Birthday for my hubby. We will remember this for a long time, not just the food.

The admission to the museum was pricey, even for Kama'aina, so we opted to get the Family Membership instead. The membership was for 2 adults and up to 4 kids, and also has discounts for other exhibits. After a quick sweep through the museum, and a wary observation of the flight simulator, the grandson decided it was time to eat. I got the Blue Angels Burger and he got the kids hot dog meal. I'd say the prices were reasonable, considering how much takeout and restaurant food costs these days. The burger was fat as hell and the dog wasn't Costco sized but definitely satisfied the kid. I didn't get pics of the food because I was too enthralled over the size of the patty! We spent the day also visiting the Mighty Mo, the Virtual Reality tour, and gift shop shopping also.

In my opinion the Aviation Museum was one of the cooler stops on our trip. I really enjoyed all the different types of planes and carriers they had on display. We also ate Lunch at the Cafe in the Aviation Museum and the food was delicious! The bus picked us up from the USS Missouri and dropped us off at the Aviation Museum, there was a short line to check in at the front desk of the museum before you could enter the inside portion of the museum. They had a flight simulator inside the internal museum as well as a gift shop and restaurant. The Hangar still had the original bullet holes in the glass from the Pearl Harbor attack which was a really neat part of history to be able see. They also have a section where they are restoring some planes and helicopter parts. My favorite thing they had was this wood paneled plane in the hangar. They also had some old Military trucks out front of the hangar that were really cool. I highly recommend visiting the Aviation Museum while at Pearl Harbor.

There is a bunker built for WW2 that was never really used but now houses movie memorabilia from the many productions on the ranch.

Whether it's the farm tour, ATVs, e-bikes, or even visiting the secret beach, every experience has been fun, unique, and incredibly well run. The setting alone is worth it you're surrounded by some of the most breathtaking natural beauty on the island, with views that are easily among the best in Oahu. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and there's even a chance you'll stumble upon a movie being filmed, which adds a little extra excitement to the day. This time around, we did the e-bike tour (novice level). Even though it's labeled beginner-friendly, I'd say it can still be a bit of a workout. I consider myself pretty athletic, and there were definitely moments where I had to push myself. That said, it just made the experience more rewarding. They do have you complete a practice run beforehand to make sure you're comfortable handling the bikes, which is reassuring. Our tour guide was fantastic and really made the experience enjoyable. As a bonus, we even got to catch a glimpse of the next Jumanji movie being filmed, which was such a cool surprise. We can't say enough good things about Kualoa Ranch. It's one of those places that keeps you coming back, and it absolutely deserves a spot on your Oahu itinerary.

I also added additional pictures here in cities and countries that Yelp is not in yet from this…read morecruise itinerary. Quality/Quantity - Princess Cruise, in my opinion, is a medium priced carrier. We have been lucky with some good values this year, 2023. We have logged a hundred days at sea just this year with just this brand. But you would already know that if you are following. Food is good, you can have even better food if you are willing to pay extra. Ports are good, for the most part. See all reviews for the best ports and the just okay ports. Entertainment is just okay; we feel their competitors do a better job. Even some of their parent and "sister" companies do a better job. Activities have been good with the exception of one ship. But it was not the ship or rather it was the culture of the "captain" probably cutting costs? This one ship gave out point tickets rather than actual prizes. We participate in most everything, otherwise we can get very bored. And the more sea days we have, the longer the cruise can feel. But you know you are getting older when you actually start enjoying sea days, LOL. Atmosphere - Depends where you travel to, see all my previous Yelps. We take exceptionally long cruises, so typically very few kids are on board. Service - Our experience is that longer cruises have better service and smaller ships have better service. Due to our status, we were invited to the Captain's Happy Hour (discounted drinks if you do not have the package) daily. And also, to the Captain's Party (with free drinks). Price - Again, a medium priced brand. It also depends on where you go, if you have been before ($$ shore excursions), etc. And most importantly, how much you drink and if you have the drink package or NOT. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1965 and for being the second largest cruise line (by revenue). 15 ships. 1974 - Princess was a subsidiary of P&O (Carnival currently owns them also). 1980's - Gained popularity because of the show "Love Boat," if you know the show, you are of the same generation as me, LOL. 2003 - Parent company is now Carnival.
