I have attended this Luau and Show several times and highly recommend it to everyone! Even though it rained during the show this time, it was still very well done and the audience was very receptive of the dancing and entertainment! The food was wonderful, as always!!!

I have seen the Hilton Luau three times so far. This time, the Hawaiian show felt fresh with younger performers. I had a great time participating from the front row.

今までに3回ヒルトンのルアウを見ました。今回のハワイアンショウーは構成メンバーも若く新鮮に感じました。一番前の席で大変楽しく参加させていただきました。

We participated with a 2-year-old, a 5-year-old, mom, and grandma. The 2-year-old also enjoyed free drinks. They adjusted the alcohol for us, and we had delicious cocktails. The show was fun too. However, since it was cold, I recommend bringing warm clothing!

This is a must see attraction. Of course very touristy but very well done. So much to see . Arrived around 12.30 had a quick lunch it was go go go for 5+ hours.It was very entertaining and informative. I want to come back to see what I missed. The extra $25 for lunch and guided tour was well worth it. Loved the Luau and night show . Don't think about this one just go!

I have to say that The Polynesian Culture Center is my favorite memory about Hawaii. I learned so much with this experience. We adored our Tour Guide "Cousin ViVii" she was very informative and a pleasure to be around. Not only is it my favorite memory of Hawaii, but a favorite memory of my life.

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show

Late-Entry Ambassador Package - Average Experience

Reviewed by: Kristen

After reading so many reviews, we expected this experience to be great; however, we found most of the evening to be okay at best. The prime rib and seafood, "prime" dining, is not good. Much of the hot food was luke-warm, the roast beef...I mean prime rib...although pretty sure it was roast beef, was way overcooked and just gross, and much of the food was slimy and just inedible. There was one hot seafood item which was somewhat hot/somewhat still frozen, and my husband said was disgusting. It was not prime dining. I would suggest skipping dining there altogether.

We had some time to walk around; however, most of the exhibits are just artifacts or movies/shows. The Samoa live show was interesting and entertaining, but the videos were boring and I can't imagine what you could spend an entire day there doing (we went late at 4 PM and had plenty of time). The "Ha, Breathe of Life" show was the best part for sure. The show was entertaining; however, it was very long. We went to another luau and show earlier in our trip, booked through the cruise line, and I would say that show was better. "Ha, Breathe of Life" was very long and had a lot of repetitive dancing. They do a part of the show for each Island, so after awhile the dancing gets repetitive. Some aspects were really neat: fire dancing, a few of the dances with props, etc, but it would have been better if it hadn't been so extremely long and repetitive.

Overall, I can't say that I would recommend this experience. If I did, I would recommend the show, without eating dinner. Additionally, be prepared to pay extra for everything and have things that cost money constantly offered to you (I understand, it is a vacation destination, but for the Polynesian Cultural Center, which doesn't allow tipping and is all about culture, it just seemed weird after awhile). Next time we go to Hawaii, we will try a luau closer to the resort area, and skip the Polynesian Cultural Center.

This is my third visit.
The show is authentic, and the activities are plentiful. I love this halau!!
Compared to hotel shows, the time commitment is longer, but I recommend it for those who want to see elegant hula!
However, there are basically few Japanese participants, and it's English-only. Well, you can manage even if you can't speak much.

3度目の訪問です。
ショーは本格的で、アクティビティーも充実しています。大好きなハラウです!!
ホテルのショーに比べて拘束時間が長いですが、品格的なフラが見たいって方にはオススメです!

The show was satisfying!! ショー満足!!

Reviewed by: kono

This time, I attended a dinner show for the first time in Waikiki.

It was a standard plan, but I was able to enjoy the dance performances and the food was reasonably delicious.

However, the time between receiving the welcome drink and going to the buffet was too long, which was quite exhausting.

Depending on the seating order, some guests were served a bit earlier, but it would have been better if they could have accommodated us sooner.

Since I had an alcoholic welcome drink, I ended up getting tipsy before going to get the food.

The show itself was very satisfying.

今回ディナーショーはワイキキで初めて行きました。

スタンダードのプランでしたが、
十分にダンスを知覚で見れて料理もそれなりに美味しくいただきました。

ただ、ウェルカムドリンクがきてから、ビュッフェをとりにいくまでの時間が長過ぎてしんどかったです。

席の順番によってはやや早い方もいましたが、もっと早めにたいおうしてもらえると良かったです。

アルコールいりのウェルカムドリンクをいただいたので、料理をとりにいくまでに酔っ払いました。。

ショー自体はとても満足のいくものでした。

伝統ルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショー アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ(キングカメハメハホテル内)<ブッフェ夕食/飲み放題/シェルレイ付>

I especially recommend the staff at Kinkame Hotel!! キンカメホテルの人は特にオススメ!!

Reviewed by: サカマイ

Since I stayed at the King Kamehameha Hotel, I had no travel time at all. I wasn't sure where the reception was and got a little lost, but I saw a line forming, so I joined it. While waiting, I was asked if I wanted to buy a lei and had the chance to take some photos.

After checking in, I went to the venue next to the beach and made my way to my seat with a drink in hand. The Mai Tai was really delicious. I ordered various drinks and enjoyed them. The staff guided us to our seats as we arrived. Once seated, I chatted with the people next to me and across from me while waiting for the show to start. I was a bit anxious since I don't speak much English, but everyone was kind and spoke to me.

The show was entirely in English, but it was enjoyable to watch, so I found it interesting. It was an impressive performance.

However... since it was outdoors, there was a downpour, and I received a raincoat from the staff to watch the show. The show proceeded as scheduled despite the rain. Even in the downpour, I laughed with those around me, saying, "Wow, the rain is intense!" This became a good memory.

The food was delicious, especially the meat, taro, and poke. I think it's better to take a lot at once so you can enjoy the show at a leisurely pace. There are many types of drinks, so I believe you'll find a favorite.

I think this Hawaiian show offers an experience of "Hawaii" that you can't find on Oahu.

I would love to participate again if I stay at the King Kamehameha Hotel.

キングカメハメハホテルに泊まって参加だったため、移動時間がまったくありません。
受付の場所がわからず、少し迷ってしまいましたが行列ができていたので並びました。並んでいる間はレイを購入するか聞かれたり、写真をとったりしながら並びます。
受付後、ビーチ横にある会場に行き、ドリンクを片手に席まで行きます。マイタイがとってもおいしかったです。いろいろなドリンクを注文してたくさん飲みました。席は来た人から係の人が案内してくれます。席に着くと隣の人や向かいに座っている外国の方と話しながらショーを始まるのを待ちます。英語があまり話せないので不安でしたが、皆さん優しく話してくれました。
ショーはすべて英語ですが、見て楽しめるので面白かったです。
迫力のあるショーです。

しかし。。。
野外の為、スコールになってしまい、係の人にカッパをもらってショーを見ました。
ショーは雨天決行の為、普通にショーは進みます。
スコールでも周りの人と「雨すごいね」と笑いながら見ました。
これも良い思い出です。

食事もおいしく、お肉、タロイモ、ポケがとてもおいしかったです。
一回でたくさん取ったほうがゆっくりショーが見れますので良いと思います。
飲み物もたくさん種類がありますので好みのお酒が見つかると思います。


オワフ島では味わえない『ハワイ』が体験できるハワイアンショーだと思います。

またキングカメハメハホテルに泊まったら参加したいです。

Dear Sakamai,

Thank you very much for attending the Luau show. I imagine it must have been quite challenging in the rain, but in Hawaii, we consider it a blessing. It means "the rain washes away the town, the people, and the hearts, making everything clean." We proceeded with the show with smiles, and it warms my heart to hear that you have good memories of it.

The show at the King Kamehameha Hotel received high praise, and it is a place we hold very dear in our long-standing relationship. We hope you will visit us again. It would be wonderful for us if you could enjoy plenty of food and drinks!

With Aloha.

サカマイ様
この度はルアウショーにお越し頂き誠にありがとうございました。
雨の中、とても大変だったのでは。。。と思いますが、ハワイでは祝福の雨。
「町も人も心もきれいに洗い流してくれる・・・」という意味がございます。そのまま笑顔でショーを進行させていただきましたが、

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing

Lots of fun

Reviewed by: Gretchen

This was our first luau experience and it was fantastic. Transportation was included, the bus was on time and comfortable. When we arrived, they took a photo that had a beautiful back drop (amazing scenery with the mountain and the ocean), photo was $10 and quite decent quality. There were fun pre-show activities and drinks available. The buffet was good, we paid for the middle of the road package which was worth it. The emcee was funny and personable and the show was very entertaining, the woman sitting next to us said that they had been to several luaus and this was by far the best fire show they'd seen. We were called onto stage because it was our honeymoon and they gave me a nice flower bouquet. Overall it was really a great experience! The whole staff worked hard to make the night a good one. Worth every penny!

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show

Amazing time! Best guide ever!

Reviewed by: Candice

When we first booked this tour it was at the recommendation of my parents who had visited a few years previously. My husband and I were originally going to explore the center on our own, however, after spending an hour on the bus with Jermaine (hope I spelled that right) and learning that he was giving the tour, we decided to pay a little extra and join the tour group. Best investment we made on our vacation. Not only was Jermaine knowledgeable, friendly, and seriously hilarious, but he got us to all the shows and we saw more than if we had tried to navigate the center ourselves. Highly recommend this place to everyone, and pay the extra for a guide. Well worth it.

伝統ルアウ&ハワイアンショー「ワイキキ・スターライト・ルアウ」フラ&ファイヤーダンスの本格ディナーショー <ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ>

It's an easy-to-watch show. お手軽に見れるショーです

Reviewed by: ぺんぺん

It was my first time in Hawaii, so I wanted to see something like a traditional dance, and after searching around, I chose this one as it seemed convenient. We went in mid-September, just the two of us.

- Food…★★★ It was a buffet style, but we could only go once to get food before the show started, and getting a second helping was nearly impossible (the plates were cleared away quickly). However, the plates were larger compared to Japan, so it wasn't a problem in the end. There was a separate kids' buffet available. The taste was decent.
- Drinks…★★ The ticket included two drink vouchers; one was for a welcome drink (you could choose between juice or one of two cocktails), and the other was for after the meal (you could choose from several cocktails, wine, beer, or soft drinks). The welcome drink was almost forced upon us. The free water was gone by the time we had our meal, so I wished they had included another drink voucher.
- Show content…★★★★ The final fire dance was very impressive. Various traditional dances from places other than Hawaii were also showcased. Each had slightly different costumes, which was quite interesting.

It's not a full-fledged luau with a whole roasted pig, but I think it's good for those who want to see traditional dances in a convenient way. By the way, surprisingly (?), about 30% of the audience was Japanese, with many Westerners present.

初ハワイだったので、一度は伝統舞踊のようなものを見てみたいと思い、色々探してお手軽そうなこれにしました。行ったのは9月中旬、夫と2人です。

・料理…★★★ ビュッフェ形式ですが、ショー開始前に一度取りに行けただけでお代わりはほぼ無理です(お皿が早々に片づけられてしまいました)。ただし、お皿が日本と比べて大きかったので結果問題なし。キッズ用ビュッフェが別に用意されていました。味はまずまずです。
・飲み物…★★ チケットにドリンク券が2枚ついていて、1枚はウェルカムドリンク(ジュースorカクテルの2種から選択)、もう1枚は食後(数種のカクテルかワイン、ビール、ソフトドリンクから選択)に使いました。ウェルカムドリンクはほぼ強制的に回ってきます。無料の水は、食事の時にはなくなっていたので、もう1枚ドリンク券つけてほしかったと思いました。
・ショーの内容…★★★★ 最後のファイヤーダンスが大迫力。ほかはハワイ以外にも様々な伝統舞踊が披露されました。それぞれ衣装も少しずつ異なり、なかなか興味深かったです。

豚丸焼きが出るような本格的なルアウではありませんが、伝統舞踊をお手軽に見たい方にはよいかと思います。ちなみに、日本人は意外に(?)全体の3割くらいで、欧米人が多かったです。

Kink Kamehameha Dinner Show キンクカメハメハ内ディナーショー

Reviewed by: マミマミ

I was excited for my first dinner show, and I’ve lost track of how many days I’ve been in Hawaii. Being here makes me forget the days of the week and the date. I’m looking forward to the dinner show, which I’m seeing for the first time. The hula dancing was impressive; I can’t believe how much they can move their hips! Everyone was beautiful and wonderful, and the male dancer who used fire was great. Seeing the fire drop live was a fresh experience.

However, the disappointing part was that I couldn’t understand English, so I didn’t know what the host was saying. The meal was rushed, and the drinks ended quickly, leaving me unsatisfied. It’s a shame! I had higher expectations, and I wish they could improve that aspect of the dinner show. After the show, I took photos with the dancers, which was a nice memory.

I’m thinking of traveling again to see another dinner show. I have many memories from my time in Hawaii, and one of them is the dinner show. Next time, I want to study a bit more English so that I can understand the host’s talk better!

初めてのディナーショーワクワク、ハワイも何日目かなぁ〜、ここに居ると曜日も日にちも忘れてしまう。ディナーショー楽しみ、初めて見る。フラダンス、よくあれだけ腰が動くなと感心‼︎みんな綺麗で素敵でした、炎を使った男性良かった、炎を落としたところも、生で見たからわかるこのであって、新鮮でした。でも残念なことは…英語がわからなくて、司会の方がなにを言ってるか分からなかった。そして、食事、慌ただしく食べた、飲み物も、早く終わり、物足りなかった。残念‼︎もっと期待して居ただけに、ディナーショーってこんなもの、その辺を何とかしてもらいたい 。ディナーショーが終わって、ダンサーの方と写真を知りました。これも、思い出 (^∇^)また旅行してディナーショー見に行こうと思います。ハワイでの思い出いろいろあります。その中のひとつがディナーショー、今度は英語がもぅ少し分かるくらい勉強して、司会の方のトークが理解できるくらいになりたい〜(*^_^*)

Dear Mami Mami,

Thank you very much for attending our dinner show. For us, who love Hawaii and Polynesia, it is a great joy to share the beauty of our hearts, the land, and our traditions through dance with everyone.

During the show, our host provided explanations of the story, hula lessons, and activities, as well as traditional dishes, to help everyone enjoy the experience even more. We tried to express ourselves as much as possible through gestures, even when language barriers existed, all while ensuring that you could relax and enjoy your time with us, which is an important role for us as your hosts. Thank you for your valuable words; we are deeply grateful.

We are currently creating a pamphlet that we can share with everyone in Japan. We hope that next time, we can be even closer to you, Mami Mami, and that you will enjoy the show even more. Our team was born in Polynesia and has deep connections with people from Japan.

Although it's just a little, some of us have learned Japanese, and the male fire dancer loves "shabu-shabu." After the show, greeting everyone and taking photos is one of the dancers' joys, so please feel free to speak to us in Japanese☆.

We look forward to the day we can meet again. With Aloha.

マミマミ様
この度は、ディナーショーにお越しくださり誠にありがとうございました。ハワイそしてポリネシアの地を愛する私達にとって、
皆様に心や大地の美しさ、そして伝統を踊りを通してお伝えできることは何よりも幸せなことでございます。
ショーでは司会の者が、皆様によりよく楽しんでいただけるようショーのストーリー、フラレッスンなどのアクティビティや伝統料理の説明をさせて頂いておりました。ユーモアをもって言葉が通じなくでも!と思いながらできるだけジェスチャーで表現をしているですが、やはりごゆっくりおくつろぎ頂けるよう努めるのも
私どもがお迎えする大切な役割です。貴重なお言葉を頂きありがとうございました。深く感謝申し上げます。
現在日本の皆様にお渡しできるパンフレットを作成中です。是非、次回はマミマミ様ともっと親しくそしてショーも楽しんでいただけるようチーム一同ハワイでお待ちしたいと思っております。私たちチームはポリネシアの地で生まれ、また日本の方々とも深いつながりを持っています。
少し・・・ですが、日本語も習ったり、ファイヤーダンスの男性は『しゃぶしゃぶ』が大好きです。ショーの後皆さんにご挨拶をしたり、写真を撮る時間もダンサーの楽しみの一つですので、是非日本語で声をかけてみてください☆。
またお会いできる日を心待ちにしております。Alohaを込めて。

伝統ルアウ&ハワイアンショー「パラダイス・コーブ 」開放的なオーシャンフロントで本場の雰囲気を味わえるショーやサンセット鑑賞<現地集合可/コオリナ・リゾート内>

I felt a bit of a disconnect with the staff... 少々スタッフに外れた感が・・・

Reviewed by: JUNKO

I was looking forward to the luau. I had heard that there were few Japanese guests and that it was English only, but it was disappointing that the staff who assisted us made a clear unpleasant face and spoke to other staff about how troublesome we were. Even though I couldn't perfectly understand English, I got the gist of it.

I also received a simple tattoo, and the service for that was good. The show was very impressive and wonderful, and since we had deluxe seats where food was served, it was great.

The $24 card you receive upon entry might be a good deal for those who drink alcohol, but for those who don't, you can use the remaining amount at the concession stand, although it closes early after the show, so I recommend using it before the show starts.

We walked from the nearby Aulani, and it took less than 10 minutes. If you go before 4:30 PM, you will have to wait outside. The leis you receive at the entrance (men receive kukui leis, and women receive flower leis) cannot be taken back to Japan, so I wish I had requested a kukui instead.

楽しみにしていたルアウ。日本人の利用者が少なく、英語ONLYとは聞いていましたが、対応してくれたスタッフがあからさまに嫌な顔をして他のスタッフに私たちの担当になって面倒くさい~と話しかけていたので残念でした。英語がパーフェクトに聞き取れなくともニュアンスでわかりました。
簡易タトゥーも施していただきましたが、こちらの対応はよかったです。
ショーはとっても迫力があり素晴らしく、食事もサーブしていただけるデラックス席でしたので良かったです。
入場の際にいただける24ドル分のカード、お酒を飲まれる方にはお得かもしれませんが、お酒を飲まない人は、残りを売店で使えますがショー終了後は早めに閉まってしまうので、ショーが始まるまでに使うことをお勧めします。

The luau was an overall great experience. It was my 2nd time i've been here so i decided to take my girlfriend here since it was her first time in Hawaii. Good entertainment and a few small activities where you can make flower headbands, bracelets, and temporary tattoo's that are complimentary. Drinks are reasonably priced but the price of the drinks listed on there menu are of the drinks smallest size. They don't really specify on their menu that they have a s,m,l,souvenir and prices differ from that shown on the screen but I had no complaints we had a balance on a card that allowed us to have two rounds of drinks for free. Definitely have to come on an empty stomach. They provide you with enough food and you can come for seconds. Definitely would recommend going.

A wonderful show. 素晴らしいショー

Reviewed by: 彩り夏子

I heard it's a really great facility, so I participated in the deluxe option to watch the show from a nice seat.

The guide who showed us around the park was a student from a neighboring university. I was surprised to hear that most of the people performing in the show are also students. Honestly, I could feel a difference in energy depending on the guide... (laughs)

I also recommend participating in the backstage tour, where you can see the rehearsal scenes and the costume room before the show! The show from the third row was absolutely amazing! After it ended, I was able to take photos with the dancers!

On the bus ride there, the guide provided continuous sightseeing information, making it a fun tour all the way!

とってもいい施設だと聞き
ちょっといい席でショーを見ようとデラックスで参加しました。

園内を案内してくださるガイドの方は隣の大学の学生さんたち
ショーに出る人のほとんどもそうだと聞き、驚きでした。
正直、ガイドさんによってテンションの差は感じました。。。笑

ショーの前にリハーサル風景や衣裳部屋などバックステージツアーに参加するのもおすすめです!
3列目でのショーは見ごたえ抜群!終わった後はダンサーさんと写真を撮ったりできました!

行きのバスでもガイドさんがずーーーーと観光案内をしてくれていて
行くまでの楽しいツアーです♪

  • 園内は6つの国と島の文化が体験できます

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

Second Time To Paradise Cove Luau ~ will continue to go back!

Reviewed by: Carolyn

Took my kids a few years ago and loved it. They had so many activities prior to the buffet it was more like a hawaiian fair, so I had to go back and enjoy it solo this time. The scenery is breathtaking. The food is awesome! The staff is so very friendly and helpful, and the show is amazing!!!

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

Great Luau

Reviewed by: ptlytch07

This was my second Luau and while it is a very "touristy" thing to do, anyone who visits HI should at least go to one. This was a very entertaining Luau and the performers were outstanding and extremely talented. I was very impressed with the musicians who were multi-talented and did an amazing job with all the music. The food was really good and the drinks weren't bad either; however, the foo-foo drinks were pretty sweet. We paid for the "VIP" package and I'm still on the fence as to whether or not it was worth it. It was nice having your food brought to you and the extra drink coupons were a plus (we ended up having a little left on the card at the end of the night which we used for souvenirs). Also, you weren't with the big crowd, but you still have strangers at your table so don't expect to be alone. Also, you are in the back of the crowd (up higher than everyone else, but you are not up front like I expected). So, not sure if the extra money for the VIP was worth it, but overall the Luau was really fun and entertaining and we had a great night.

伝統ルアウ&ハワイアンショー「ワイキキ・スターライト・ルアウ」フラ&ファイヤーダンスの本格ディナーショー <ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ>

Second time. 2度目

Reviewed by: HIRO

We visited Hawaii for our honeymoon, and I booked this show again for my husband, who was visiting Hawaii for the first time. We were able to watch the show in an open outdoor setting in Waikiki, and it seemed like my husband enjoyed it. The show is wonderful, but just like last time, the buffet (food) isn't particularly delicious, so it's best not to have high expectations (though the meat was good). We might not go for a third time, but I think it's worth seeing once. Also, please note that buses do not stop at the bus stop in front of the Hilton right now!

新婚旅行でハワイを訪れ、初ハワイの旦那さんのため、以前参加したこちらのショーを申込みしました。
ワイキキで、そして屋外という開放的な場所でショーを見られ、旦那さんも楽しんでいたようです。
ショーは素敵なのですが、前回同様ブッフェ(食事)は美味しいというわけではありませんので、あまり期待はしない方がいいです。(お肉は美味しかったようです)。
3回目はないかもしれませんが、一度観るには良いと思います。
あと今はヒルトン前のバス停にバスが止まらないので要注意です!

伝統ルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショー アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ(キングカメハメハホテル内)<ブッフェ夕食/飲み放題/シェルレイ付>

There's a lot to enjoy! 盛りだくさんで楽しめます!

Reviewed by: akiko

It was a packed show, starting with hula, where we learned baton twirling on stage, got tattoos marked for us, and were taught how to make fish out of leaves. The appearance of King Kamehameha from the ship was impressive, and the food was delicious. It was a wonderful show that made great use of the beautiful location.

盛りだくさんのショーで、フラからはじまりバトンを舞台の上で教えてもらったり、タトゥーをマークしてくれたりや葉っぱでお魚をつくるやり方を教えてくれたり。船からカメハメハ大王が登場する演出はさすがで食事もおいしかったです。ロケーションの良さを生かした素晴らしいショーでした。

Dear Akiko,

Thank you for attending the luau show. We also appreciate the wonderful photos you shared. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the activities we prepared.

It is our wish that families with children and honeymooners alike can all enjoy together. The entrance by boat from the sea is a unique charm of the luau at the King Kamehameha Hotel.

We hope to deliver another enjoyable time along with the Hawaiian sea breeze.

With Aloha.

Akiko様。ルアウショーにお越し頂き、ありがとうございました。
またすてきな写真ありがとうございます。私どもでご用意をしておりますアクティビティも楽しんで頂けたようで、大変嬉しく思っております。
お子様連れの方や、新婚旅行の方、皆様ご一緒に楽しんでいただきたいのが私たちの願いです。
海から船に乗っての登場、演出はこのキングカメハメハホテルでのルアウならではの魅力でございます。
ハワイの海風とともに、また楽しい時間をお届けできれば幸いです。
Alohaを込めて。

It was fun. 楽しかったです

Reviewed by: ピッピ

I had been curious about it but hadn't been able to go until now. It's far from Waikiki, but the student guide explained everything enthusiastically, so it wasn't a burden. The show had a story like a musical, and it was quite meaningful. I reserved the higher-priced seats and buffet, and I think that was the right choice. Even if you're in Waikiki, you still have to eat dinner somewhere, so the evening departure + dinner + round-trip transportation + show viewing isn't too expensive, and you don't have to think about various plans for the evening or search for a restaurant, which makes it convenient.

気になっていながら毎回行けてなく、今回初めて行きました。ワイキキから遠いですが、学生のガイドさんが一生懸命色々と説明してくれるので、苦ではなかったです。ミュージカルのようストーリーがあるショーで、意味深かったです。席もビュッフェも高い方を予約しましたが、そうした方が良いように思います。ワイキキにいてもどうせ晩ご飯はどこかで何か食べないといけないので、夕方出発 + ディナー + 往復送迎 + ショー観覧は、そう高くもないぢ、まず夕方からの予定を色々考えなくて済むし、レストランを探す必要もなく楽です。
