Even when looking at guidebooks and everyone's reviews, it was recommended that if you go to Hawaii, you should see the Luau show, and I was a bit skeptical about how good it really was.
The result was a huge success!!
While waiting for the show to start, I participated in interactive events and enjoyed some cocktails.
After that, I had a buffet meal and watched the show.
Not only was there hula, but also Tahitian dance and a fire show, making it a rich and enjoyable experience.
ガイドブックを見ても、みんなの口コミを見ても、ハワイに行ったら、ルアルショーがお勧めと書かれてあり、そんなに良いのかなぁ??と半信半疑で、申し込みました。
結果は、大正解!!
ショーが始まるまでの間は、参加型のイベントに参加したり、カクテルを飲んだりして時間を過ごしました。
その後、バイキングの食事を食べ、ショーを見ました。
フラだけでなく、タヒチのダンスやファイアーショーもあり内容が充実していて、楽しめました。

One of the first things I wanted to do when I reached Hawaii was to tour the island to see what it has to offer. This is definitely worth the time. 11 hours on a tour seems like a lot, but there were many 'drive-by' items that would have been fun to stop at and take pictures such as the TV filming areas. Our professional guide, Jonathan, was the best! His knowledge of the island, special tips and eating recommondations, and humor made the tour pass quickly. This tour gave my family a taste of options for us to do on our vacation. LOVED IT!!!
On a side note, I would recommond to anyone that rides a bus in Hawaii to take a light jacket or sweater because the AC is on and the buses do get chilly.

I participated in the sunset tour on May 28th.
The setting sun was enchanting and truly wonderful. After the sun set, the moon rose on the opposite side, which was moving, and I was extremely lucky to even see a moonbow.

We took the Pearl Harbor tour with the Missouri. Sandy was our tour guide and she was fantastic! Very nice, fun and entertaining, plus knowledgeable. The bus was really big and comfortable (not like most of the yucky shuttles) and Sandy drove around Waikiki effortlessly. Amazing!
The Arizona Memorial is a must-see, although it is not exciting so kids are easily bored. On the other hand, the tour of the Missouri is great for all ages. We did the audio tour with the iTouch device, and my 13-year-old thought it was like an adventure to find the next location. We were able to explore and listen at our convenience.
The Punchbowl was closed for Memorial Day, but Sandy took us to Pal"i lookout, which was a beautiful sight and the drive up was very informational too.
Overall, a terrific tour that we are so glad we did and the price was VERY affordable. Many of the tours I saw were way over-priced, as I cannot see what they could offer over the tour we took.
We were much

The Beach on the North Shore tour was beautiful, very clean, and a refreshing change from Waikiki Beach. The waves were much stronger and had great surfing beaches along the way for those interested in that. Really enjoyed watching folks on that diving rock there. The ride was long, but the driver was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and relayed lots of information about Hawaii. The stroll through the small, older town with shops and eateries was unique. Loved the music provided by that musical family that lives there and entertains the tourists. A relief to see more enjoyable aspects of Oahu without the hassle of driving.

We slowly moved from the Kailua Pier to the submarine by boat. The coastline of Kailua-Kona is beautiful. Once inside the submarine, I was surprised at how spacious it was; we dove 100 feet (about 30 meters) and could see the seabed clearly. I am generally prone to seasickness, and since I was sleep-deprived after participating in the Mauna Kea summit sunrise tour, I experienced mild seasickness. I recommend that those who are prone to seasickness take medication before boarding the boat at the pier.
カイルア桟橋から船でゆっくりと潜水艦まで移動
カイルア・コナの沿岸がきれい。
潜水艦に入って見ると中は意外に広く100フィート(約30m)潜り海底まで見えきれい。
もともと船に弱い方で、またマウナケア山頂サンライズツアー参加後すぐで睡眠不足だったので、軽い船酔いになりました。
船に弱い方は、桟橋で船に乗る前船酔いの薬を飲まれる事をお勧めします。

I was able to see dolphins. I was a bit worried because it seemed that some people couldn't see them, but during my visit, perhaps due to the timing, I was able to see dolphins swimming from the hotel balcony in the morning, so I wasn't too concerned. By the way, it was around mid-May, during the new moon phase (which may not be related).
As soon as we set sail, we saw dolphins up close, and I was really excited. I regretted not taking pictures because I thought we would be snorkeling there. We ended up snorkeling at another location, which had beautiful coral reefs. They provided masks and fins, and just floating in the sea was very soothing and enjoyable. There were always meals and drinks available, and the shower and restroom were clean, so I thought it was a nice experience. It felt more like a relaxing playtime.
I also did diving as an option. I didn't understand the language, but they properly informed us about the dive sites and guided us, so I had a lot of fun. However, once you start diving, the free time (if you can call it that) becomes limited. I thought it would be amazing if we could dive in the area where the dolphins are.
イルカ見れました。書き込みには、見れなかった人もいたようなので、ちょっと心配でしたが、私の時は、時期がよっかったのか、ホテルのベランダからも朝はイルカが泳いでいるのがみれていたので、心配がなたったです。ちなみに5月半ばの、(関係ないかもだけど、)新月位の時でした。
出航してすぐイルカがみれ、まじかでしたので、ちょう興奮しました。そこでスノーケルかと思い写真をとらなかったのが、残念でした。スノーケルは、他の場所で、そこは珊瑚のきれいな海です。マスクとフィンを貸してくれて、海に浮いているだけでもとても癒されよかったです。食事も飲み物もつねにあるし、シャワーもついてるし、トイレもキレイなので、いい感じだと思います。どちらかというと、のんびり遊ぶ(癒しな)感じだと思います。
オプションでダイビングもしました。言葉は解りませんが、ちゃんとポイント名も教えてくれて、ガイドもしてくれたので、結構楽しめました。 ただ、ダイビングをしてしまうと、自由時間(?)が少なくなってしまいます。せっかくなら、イルカがいるところで、ダイビングできたら最高なのにな、と思いました。

I participated in a cruise that departed at 9 AM.
On the day of the cruise, we were the only Japanese people, and the rest were foreigners. All the explanations were in English, but I didn't have any particular difficulties. On the way there and back, we encountered dolphins. We were able to stop the boat and enjoy watching the dolphins until they left. Unfortunately, the dolphins weren't at the snorkeling point, so we couldn't swim with them, but the rental snorkeling gear was very clean, and the boat had a slide that the kids could enjoy (the adults were sliding down too). They provided anti-fog spray for the snorkeling masks and tubes as substitutes for floatation devices, which made for a very comfortable experience. The snorkeling point was in shallow waters with not much wave action, and there were plenty of fish, so even kids could have fun.
There was someone celebrating a birthday that day, and we all sang a birthday song at the end. It was a fun tour.
朝9時出港のクルーズに参加しました。
当日は日本人は私たちだけであとは外人さんたちでした。
説明はすべて英語ですが 特に苦労はしませんでした。
行く途中と帰りにイルカに遭遇。
船をとめて イルカが去るまでゆっくり堪能できました。
残念ながら イルカがシュノーケルポイントに居なかったので一緒に泳ぐことはできなかったのですが
レンタルのシュノーケルもとても綺麗だし、船には滑り台がついていて子供も楽しめます(大人もみんな滑ってます)
シュノーケルの際のマスクの曇り止めや浮き環の代わりのチューブなどが準備されていて とても快適に過ごせます。
シュノーケルポイントも波があまりない浅瀬で、魚もたくさんいるので 子供でも楽しめます。
当日は誕生日の方がいて 皆で最後にバースデーソングを歌ったり。 楽しいツアーでした。

Aloha! We attended Island Breeze Luau, and we had a great time! This was our first Luau, and our 12 and 16 year old was with us. They had a great representation of Hawaiin Foods, as well as American foods for those who didnt want the full experience. The entertainment was great, and it was obvious that they loved their work. The passion for thier culture, and familys was beautifully done. By the time you left, you felt like you were part of their Ohana. The only thing I may suggest is to have more fresh fruits for those on a limited diet and more flower leis for sale, as they ran out the first 25 customers. I would give it a 4 1/2 stars.
Thanks for the memories!!

Thank you for the magnificent lava plains of the Big Island, the breathtaking views of the mountains in nature, and most of all, to Mr. Yamamoto and Mr. Kurt from Alan1.net for a wonderful time!
Mr. Yamamoto, I was truly impressed by the enjoyable conversations and knowledge shared from the time of pickup until we returned. Thank you for passionately explaining the names of various Hawaiian flowers and plants, the history of lava, and especially all the constellations spread across the night sky. I was amazed by the constellations that cannot be seen in Japan. I was also grateful for the thorough preparations, from meals to drinks and warm clothing.
Mr. Kurt, at the time of pickup, I thought you might be a bit serious, but once you started talking about Hawaiian history, I truly understood your love for Hawaii. As time went on, you gradually conveyed your kindness and humor! I thought she must be chasing after you. Thank you for the long drive. I felt the depth of kindness and thoughtfulness of the people of Hawaii. The B-class gourmet food was also very delicious! Thank you very much.

Five Star all around. Dennis was brimming with knowledge and provided much entertainment for the entire tour. Tour was whole day but worth it. Being in a small coach was immeasurably better than a large coach. Plenty of stops and time at each stop. A great way to drive and see whole Island to plan where you might want to rent a car and go back to. For limited time visitors this tour takes you everywhere and can provide you with the information and taste of Oahu. It made seeing Pearl Harbor the easiest way to attend without having to stand on forever lines for a ticket. Visits to Dole, Mac Nut and Coffee, provided many free samples to decide flavors and excellent prices to buy those gifts for home. We even got great cheap T-shirts at the Sunset Beach. Sightseeing, History and Shopping all in one package! Leave the driving to those that know the Island and enjoy a fun day.

The helicopter tour was a great way to get a brids-eye-view of hana. Hana is even more beautiful when you see it from a helicopter. You can really get a feel for how dramatic the scenery in Hana is.

The staff provided excellent service, and it was a lot of fun, but the literal sunset and starry sky were absolutely the best...
Watching the sunset sink into the sea of clouds far below, with Haleakalā and other landmarks in the distance, was breathtaking. After that, seeing the Earth's shadow on the opposite side and the countless stars visible from about 3,500 meters made me wonder where they had been hiding all this time.
It truly made me feel like a part of this planet, and I would definitely love to participate in this tour again if I have the chance.
