It is NOT a fully glass bottom boat - there are 4 square portals that allow you to look at the bottom. The deck hand threw some treats in and we saw some fish come up to feed. Mainly just an open boat cruise with seats and some were shaded with canopy. There were ladders to portal but it was never stated if we could climb down them and view from there.

We really enjoyed the morning wildlife cruise we purchased. We saw turtles, whales, dozens of different types of fish, & the dolphins. It was even better than we anticipated. The crew was very knowledgeable & entertaining. We highly recommend this company & look forward to returning.

Seeing dolphins and sea turtles was really the highlight of the cruise. The captian and mate are very friendly make you feel welcome and are very informative about the local area. Have your camera ready all the time!

This was great! We went on the morning cruise at 8:15am. I highly reccommend it. We saw lots of fish. They do toss a little food into the water to attract the fish. So that was fun to watch them eat. We also had a pod of dolphins swim with the boat for about ten minutes. They love to swim in the wake of the boat. We also saw sea turtles. My point is you will see wildlife. The captain was friendly and the mate was informative and humorous. I liked the authentic Hawaiian music they played as we motored out. They were both very chill and let you enjoy the scenery. The boat was clean and well maintained. There is also plenty of seating and there is a head on board (restroom). The marina and kiosk is easy to find and there is parking right in front but of course it was early. It is about $1.00 an hour. Be aware - don't park on the side where there are no meters. It looks like free parking but it is for registered vehicles only. Be aware there are viewing compartments where you look down into the ocean. There are not huge sections of the bottom of the boat which are glass. I know these exist elsewhere on other islands and in other parts of the world. But the water is very clear and you can see all the way to the bottom and you do see wildlife. And there are several of these compartments and many prople can stand around each one. My eight year old had a good time and my wife loved it. And even though the seas were a little choppy the ride was somewhat smooth. This is due to the design of the boat. Great trip and good viewing! Please tip! We went on many tours and noticed how many people did not tip. Covid hit the islands hard so adding a little extra back into the economy helps. We highly reccommend this tour!

Fun early morning cruise from the marina towards Diamond Head. Boat captain gave us a little history about Honolulu, some recommendations and pointed out a couple of turtles along the way.

We had a great time. The Captain and crew made the experience fun and memorable. The view was spectacular. Enjoyed seeing the sea turtles and fish, we would have seen more if the storm wasn't moving in. Great experience!

Crew was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and they did a great job of keeping us entertained and engaged. Boat was spacious and didn’t feel overcrowded with four Lots of aquatic life to be seen as well as notable points of interest on land.

Had a great time, very informative. Too bad it goes by so quickly. We were on the Don Ho with Kai and Mike, they were awsome!

A spectacular way to start a morning in Hawaii. The Crew was amazing hospitable and knowledgeable. I would recommend this morning trip to solo travelers, family, and first time boat adventures. Super safe and fun on the water. Thank you!

We had a fantastic trip on the 7 a.m. Morning Wildlife Cruise with Captain Jason. A pod of dolphins swam around the side of the boat. Two synchronized dolphins even came right next to us and blew water. The fish, turtles and volcano were breathtaking too. Captain Jason did a fantastic job and taught us that turtles use shellphones to call each other.

The crew of this boat is very nice. They point out the fish and let you feed them so a bunch come to the top. This is a narrated tour so you can know what you are looking at and get a little history as well. We saw several sea turtles and tons of fish. No dolphins, but it was only 7am. The glass bottom portion is in little boxes that you look down into. The whole bottom of the boat is not glass, but you do get 4 big viewing windows to stand around. Go when it's not too crowded so you get a good seat and can move around the boat a bit.

We enjoyed sitting in the front, viewing land and sea. We saw fish and dolphins. Commentary gave us more perspective. Good crew!

Such a nice boat ride on a beautiful day you can see sea turtles and other fish. Tour guides are really nice and take great pictures of you even on a rocking boat! Definitely recommend.

We did the early morning trip. We had to check in by 0640. We left promptly on time and got a nice education of Waikiki’s history. We saw a sea turtle very early. We saw 3 in all. We went over a sunken barge and that had lots of fish. You also get nice views of Honolulu and diamond head. We didn’t see any dolphins but that’s ok. My kids had a wonderful time. The hour goes by very quickly and snorkeling would probably be better to see the wildlife, but if you’re not a “in the water” person then this is great.

Had a great experience- saw a pod of dolphins that swam with our boat (playing in the front wake)! Also saw a bunch of tropical fish, sea turtles, and needlefish. The staff was very welcoming and created a relaxed morning cruise! Highly recommend. My 2 kids (under the age of 10) loved it as well.

We had a blast on the glass bottom boat. We saw tons of fish and even saved the ocean life from a few articles of plastic. The captain and his first mate (his wife) made this trip all worth it. They were so fun and energetic. A great experience!!!!

We went on a morning cruise starting at 7am with our 1.5 year old and 7 year old. It was fun for the entire family!! We didn’t get to see many animals but got to see a sea turtle and a glimpse of a whale, which made it all worth it. Beautiful views of Waikiki and Diamond Head. Our son also spotted lots of fish under the glass area of the boat. It was a favorite for all of us so far on O’ahu! 10/10 would recommend. Kid friendly!
