You will experience majestic views of Diamond Head and Magic Island on a beautifully crafted Venetian gondola. Let your dreams become reality with charm, class, & your very own gondolier guiding the way on your musical, interactive cruise. An enchanting Venetian experience in Hawaiian Paradise.
As you arrive, you’ll experience true Hawaiian hospitality, greeted with a warm “Aloha”, and adorned with a forever flower lei. Enjoy the shimmering water of the canal, the gentle Hawaiian breeze, and the island's captivating natural beauty.
Quench your thirst with a bottle of chilled sparkling apple cider kept cool on a silver ice bucket, served in elegant champagne flutes and indulge your taste buds with delicious desserts.
Provided that it is dark enough and weather conditions are optimal at the gondolier's discretion, evening cruises will have a laser show under the bridge of the canal called the Aloha Borealis.
