Oahu: Luxury Gondola Cruise with Drinks and Pastries

1.Luxury Gondola Cruise with Drinks and Pastries

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 42 reviews · 45 minutes - 1 hour · from $98Our pick

Cruise Honolulu’s calm waterways in a private or small-group Italian gondola with an English-speaking gondolier such as Elliot or Larry. You’ll pass under three Waikiki bridges, see Magic Island and Diamond Head, hear Venetian songs, and enjoy pastries, drinks, and a Hawaiian lei. The ride lasts 45 minutes to an hour and stays inside protected waters.

“You must ride the gondola! The guides are excellent, funny. and entertaining. They took us all the way down the canal, provided sweets, water and a parasol for us. We waved to lots of onlookers and saw a couple who regularly wave a white flag as the gondola passes their house daily. It was a great, unusual activity in Honolulu. We highly recommend!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4 reviews · 1 hour (approx.) · from $128Top rated

Board a US Coast Guard certified gondola captain at Ala Wai Small Boat Harbor for a roughly one-hour cruise through Waikiki’s Grand Canal. Expect drinks, pastries, a Hawaiian forever lei, and room for no more than four passengers on the gondola. Night rides suit proposals and special occasions, while daytime trips offer Diamond Head views.

“This turned out better than I could have ever planned. They go above and beyond to make your experience be as great as it can be. Mines was a wedding proposal, and Elliot gave us all the bells and whistles. Small Family owned so they care about the details. 5 star, if you want a special memory and a beautiful evening with the city lights book this at night..glad I made that choice.”
