The content of the show was very good!
The seasoning of the food was not as expected...
I was seated at the very back, but I could see well if I stood up in the back.

ショーの内容はとても良かったです!

Kona Sunset Dinner Cruise to Kealakekua Bay with Live Entertainment | Body Glove

Totally Entertaining

Reviewed by: tmessall@msn.com

Staff was terrific at all levels; dock staff, wait staff, bar tenders, historian, musician, & Captain. Everyone was upbeat, personable, courteous, professional, and entertaining.
Food was excellent and the drinks were generous. The captain was very personable and entertaining. Mother-nature provided us with a pod of pilot whales to observe, while keeping a safe distance. Historian was fabulous, giving everyone a much better appreciation and respect for the Hawaiian culture. The music got everyone rocking and rolling with the motion of the boat. A great selection of songs that had the passengers engaged in song.
Can't say much more. We loved it, would do it again, and would highly recommend it to everyone. It was a 3 hour tour that was well worth it.

ワイピオ渓谷観光ツアー 窓ガラス無しの四輪駆動車で遮るもののない壮大な景色を堪能!約366メートル滝やタロイモ水田など写真スポット多数<1.5時間/英語ガイド>

The quality of the guide is good. ガイドの質が良いです。

Reviewed by: MEW

The quality of the guide was quite good.
Even though the explanations were in English, they responded well if you tried to communicate, even if you couldn't speak the language.
They taught us about the history and way of life in Waipi'o.
The prayer song in Hawaiian matched the magnificent nature beautifully.
When I asked them to sing a prayer song for the Maui wildfires, they happily did it!
They were an incredibly nice young man!
The meeting place, the art shop, was also wonderful; I want to go back!

ガイドの質がかなり良いです
英語での説明になりますが喋れなくてもコミュニケーションを取ろうとすればちゃんと応えてくれます。
ワイピオの歴史と生き方を教えてくれました。
ハワイ語での祈りの歌は雄大な自然とマッチしてて素晴らしかったです。
マウイの山火事の為にも祈りの歌を歌ってと頼んだら喜んでやってくれました!
めちゃくちゃナイスガイな青年でした!
集合場所のアートショップも素晴らしかったです、また行きたいです!

Glass Bottom boat tour

Reviewed by: Angel

The crew and view was amazing! You can see A-Bay at its best. Blue waters, sea turtles and beautiful fish. Calm waters and blue skies with shade. Kids will absolutely live this short and safe tour. Bring your swimsuits for afterwards and enjoy the sandy coastline. Plenty of trees, restrooms. The Marriott has a walking trail with fish ponds too! Mahalo, Angel

A show while watching the sunset. 夕焼を見ながらのショー

Reviewed by: Ludwig

I arrived about 10 minutes ago and took a seat in the middle. It seemed that the seats in the front were reserved separately, so I couldn't choose those.
I used the hotel parking lot, and the staff took note of my number. I wonder if it was discounted? It was $5.
I enjoyed the show, and the food was delicious and representative of Hawaii. The sunset was also wonderful.
However, I felt that the number of dishes was a bit lacking considering the price.

10分前ぐらいに着き、真ん中ぐらいの席に着きました。前方の席は別予約の席となっているようで、選べませんでした。
ホテルの駐車場を利用しましたが、係の人が番号をメモを取っており、安くなったのか?5ドルでした。
ショーは楽しめましたし、料理もハワイらしいもので味は良かったと思います。夕日も素晴らしかったです。
ただ金額からすると品数が少なかったように思いました。

We had a family of 10 with kids. They all had a great time. The dancers were beautiful. The kids especially liked the fire dancers. The food was great with a great variety. The bar service was fantastic. The only negative was the heat at that time of day. But other than that we had a blast! Would do it again!

ワイピオ渓谷観光ツアー 窓ガラス無しの四輪駆動車で遮るもののない壮大な景色を堪能!約366メートル滝やタロイモ水田など写真スポット多数<1.5時間/英語ガイド>

I would be happy to have a Japanese guide. 日本語ガイドだと嬉しい

Reviewed by: emily

I participated with my child during spring break.

The road to Waipi'o Valley, known as Waipi'o Valley Road, is closed indefinitely due to safety measures against falling rocks. Since only locals can access the valley floor, we joined a tour♪

The view from the lookout point is breathtaking, but after seeing the wonderful scenery at the starting point, the road becomes terrifyingly narrow and winding. The vehicle is large, and the road is just barely wide enough. As we slowly made our way down, wild horses approached us, and they seemed very accustomed to people and cars, with everyone touching them and taking photos.

The river also flows swiftly as we drive, but I wonder how people live down in such a valley. It seems about 50 people live in the canyon, and we passed by them several times. They lead a self-sufficient life, growing taro and fishing—it's like a different world!

We were the only Japanese participants in the tour, and since it was an English guide, we could hardly understand the stories about the history, legends, and plants related to Waipi'o Valley, so we mostly just enjoyed the scenery^^; Everyone else was laughing and engaging with the guide, which was a bit disappointing for us.

春休みに子供と参加。

ワイピオ渓谷内への道であるワイピオバレーロードは、落石の危険性等への
安全対策として、無期限閉鎖。
現地の人しか谷底に行けないという事でツアーに参加♪

展望台からの景色は絶景なのですがスタート地点の素晴らしい景色を見たあとはもう絶望的に怖い道。車は大きいしギリギリの狭さ。くねくね道。
ゆっくり下まで降りていくと野生の馬がワラワラと寄ってきて
とても人や車に慣れてる感じでみんな触ったり写真を撮ってました。

川も車でぐんぐん進んできますが
こんな谷底でどうやって生活してくのか。
渓谷には約50人が暮らしているらしく何回かすれ違いました。
タロイモ栽培や漁師とか自給自足の生活で別世界!

ツアー参加者で日本人は私たちだけだったのと英語ガイドなので
ワイピオ渓谷にまつわる歴史や伝説、植物についてのお話などはほぼ
理解できず景色を見るだけ^^;
ガイドさんの話に盛り上がってみんな笑ったりしていたので
そこはちょっと残念でした。

We lucked out with dolphins, sea turtles and an amazing array of fish. The guides were great and answered all our questions while expertly navigating the reef to make sure we saw a ton of fish. I was skeptical initially, but sooooo worth it and a ball for all ages (1.5 -70+).

Luau on the Big Island at the Hilton Resort

Reviewed by: Celeste Riley

Absolutely wonderful dinner and show. We were seated with enough time to get our food and appreciated that they served the children first while the adults were able to get their drinks from the open bar. Loved having the chance to try different types of drinks from the bar. I was concerned about the weather with it being out in the open since it was cloudy and had rained in the afternoon recently but it was perfect weather! Our kids and I really enjoyed the show and we had a lovely family next to us from Wisconsin that made the dinner even more enjoyable. Would have preferred the waiters/ess come more from the back as they helped their tables so that we could see and record the event a little better. Over wonderful family event that we highly recommend!

  • Enjoying a Mai Tai

  • Cultural immersion of music and dance.

  • Amazing choices of food!

  • Beautiful cultural experience

  • Beauty and elegant cultural experience.
