Hawaii
This river boat tour was very relaxing and enjoyable. Our guides were talented, insightful, and had a great sense of humor. The fern grotto was a lovely stroll. The live entertainment set the mood for the rest of our trip. If you are weary about going on this river boat, don’t be, it is a sweet smooth ride. We highly recommend doing this tour while visiting Kauai.
This is my third time at Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii. Last time, my grandchild was only a year and a half old, so they don't remember it, but this time they are 8 years old and were the first to jump into the pool and have fun! I felt that there were fewer Japanese visitors compared to last time. I could really see how the strong yen is affecting places like this! We talked as a family about how nice it would be to come back again next year while riding the bus home.
今回で3回目のウエット アンド ワイルド ハワイ 前回孫は未だ1歳半だったので覚えていないのですが、今回は8歳になって来たので、誰よりも早くプールに入って楽しんでいました❣️
前回に比べて日本人が少なくなったのを感じました⁉️
こんな場所にも円高が影響しているのを目の当たりに感じました‼️
又来年もこられたら良いのになっと家族で話しながらバスに乗って帰りました
Thank you for your feedback. We look forward to your next visit.
Aloha Mamasan,
ご意見を頂きありがとうございました。
是非又おこしください。お待ち申し上げます。
This is probably one of the best excursions we’ve done in Hawaii as it includes snorkeling, paddle boarding and canoes all in one price. At an additional charge we added tubing and banana boat for children and they loved it. We did the morning excursion and that includes donuts and punch which is a sugar overload, I would suggest bringing breakfast/snacks. We all had a great time
Mahalo for your review! - Team KBOS
We participated with our daughter and her husband, along with our one-year-old granddaughter. The buffet had a wide variety of delicious food! In a fun atmosphere, we headed to the show. I was worried about how our granddaughter would react since she is so small, but once the music started, she got into it and danced all the way to the end. She had the most fun of all! Thank you for the wonderful memories of Hawaii!
娘夫婦と1歳の孫娘と私達夫婦で、参加しました。ブッフェも、種類が多く美味しかったです!楽しい雰囲気のままショーへ 孫が小さいので、どうなるか心配でしたが、音楽がかかるとノリノリで踊りだして最後まで、孫が、一番楽しんでました。楽しいハワイの思い出をありがとうございました!
Thank you very much for bringing your family to the Rockaflava Original Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are especially delighted to hear that your little grandchild had a wonderful time. We're glad you were able to create beautiful memories in Hawaii. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラオリジナルワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーに御家族皆様でご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。特に小さなお孫様が大変楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。素敵なハワイでの思い出が出来て良かったですね。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
Not only on the boat, but I was also able to see sea turtles while snorkeling. It was cloudy and the sea was cold that day, but I was able to enjoy it, and it became a wonderful memory.
船上だけでなくシュノーケリングの時にもうウミガメを見ることができました。
当日は曇っていて海は寒かったですが、楽しむことができ、とても良い思い出になりました。
Aloha! This is the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. We are honored to have the newlyweds join us. Please come back to Hawaii to meet the sea turtles again. A hui hou!
アロハ! キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。
新婚のお二人にご参加頂いて光栄です。またご一緒にハワイにお越しの際はぜひウミガメに会いにお越しください。A hui hou!
Just before getting on the banana boat, the children were scared of falling into the sea, but the staff noticed this and drove at just the right speed (fast enough, but without sudden turns or creating waves). By the end of the banana boat ride, the children were all smiles and very happy.
During snorkeling, another staff member casually chatted with the children, who were nervous about their first snorkeling experience, using a friendly Kansai dialect (they were a local). This helped ease their tension.
Thanks to this, we were able to create wonderful memories for the whole family.
バナナボートに乗る直前で、こどもたちが海に落ちることを怖がってしまったのですが、それを察知したスタッフさんが、ちょうど良い加減の運転(スピードはそこそこあるものの、急に曲がったり波を立てるような運転はしない)をしてくれて、バナナボートが終わるころにはこどもたちは笑顔で大喜びでした。
シュノーケリング時には、はじめてのシュノーケリングに緊張しているこどもたちに対して、別のスタッフさんが気さくに(関西弁でw 現地の方ですがww)話しかけてくれて、緊張をといてくれました。
おかげで、家族全員にとって楽しい思い出にすることができました。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We are very pleased to hear that it became a wonderful memory for your family. We look forward to welcoming you again when you visit Hawaii. From all the KBOS staff.
この度はツアーにご参加頂き誠にありがとうございました。ご家族の楽しい思い出になったとお聞きして大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には是非ご参加お待ちしております。 KBOS スタッフ一同
It was my first experience with a buggy, and I had a great time. I was especially glad that my two grandchildren participated and were so delighted.
初めてのバギー体験でしたが、大変楽しくすごすことができました。とくに二人の孫が大喜びで参加して本当によかったと思いました。
I suggest to book this activity early. I wanted to book the ATV tour that is driven by us but those reservations were all gone. The only option was to be driven by a tour expert and I have to say that was the best! Our expert was very knowledgeable and friendly. If I would do it again I would definitely choose the option to be driven be an expert. The ranch is beautiful and views are breathtaking. Learning about the history was also great.
The service, the location, the food, and the show were terrific! What a beautiful evening!
We enjoyed every minute of the three event. The musicians, dancers, actors, MC, catering and art vendors were first rate. My parents and kids enjoyed the event. We would come again!
We were the only Japanese people there.
We rode horses in the spacious ranch.
We took a leisurely walk while explaining the grass, flowers, birds, and small animals in simple English.
The horse was calm and smart, so I only needed to control it with the reins when it stopped to eat grass; otherwise, it walked nicely.
We climbed a small hill and took commemorative photos at a scenic spot.
I had a very enjoyable time.
日本人は私達だけでした。
ゆったりと広い牧場内を乗馬。
簡単な英語で草花や鳥や小動物の説明をしながらの散策。
馬が大人しく頭がいいので、途中草を食べるのに止まるのを、手綱で制御するぐらいで、後はちゃんと歩いてくれます。
小高い丘を登り、景色の良い所で記念撮影。
とても楽しい時間を過ごせました。
I was able to reach the meeting point at the airport without getting too lost. The waiting time I was worried about wasn't too long, and I was able to get to the hotel comfortably. Since it was a trip with my child, I would definitely like to use this service again. It was great that everything was settled in Japan, which was perfect for my tired self.
空港ではそれほど迷わずに待ち合わせ場所まで行くことが出来ました。心配した待ち時間もそれほどでもなく、快適にホテルまで行けました。子供との旅でしたので、これならまたお願いしたいなと思います。日本ですべて決済まで済んでいたので、疲れた身には最高でした。
First, I learned on the bus that a driver's license was required, and I realized I hadn't brought mine, which left me feeling hopeless. However, after consulting with a Japanese guide upon arrival, I was informed that a photo would suffice.
In the end, both my spouse and I were able to drive on an extraordinary road. The location was also fantastic, with many experiences that we wouldn't have had if we hadn't participated in this activity, such as taking commemorative photos at movie filming locations!
If you're hesitating, it will be a wonderful memory, so definitely give it a try!
まず、運転免許証が必要なことを行きのバス車内で知り、持参していないことに気づき、絶望していました。
しかし、到着後日本人ガイドの方に相談したところ、写真でも大丈夫とのことでした。
結局夫婦ともに非日常のロードを運転することができました。また、ロケーションも最高で、映画の撮影地での記念撮影などこのアクティビティに参加しなければ体験できないことがたくさんありました!
迷っている方がいれば、最高の思い出になりますので是非参加してみてください!
We were all captivated by a wonderful show in Hawaii, which we visited for the first time since our honeymoon. Our one-year-old daughter was also smiling and having a great time!
新婚旅行ぶりのハワイでとても素敵なショーに家族みんなでずっと釘付けでした
1歳の娘もずっとにこにこ楽しんでノリノリでした!
Thank you very much for visiting the Rockaflava Original Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show with your family for the first time since your honeymoon. We are very pleased to hear that everyone, including your daughter, had a wonderful time enjoying the experience. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラオリジナルワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーに新婚旅行ぶりに御家族でご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。娘様も含めて夢中になって楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
We participated with our third-grade daughter as a family of three. We boarded the boat with two other families who also had children. I was worried that if we were paired two by two, one of us would end up with someone else, but all families were able to experience it together.
Since we were staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village, the access was excellent as it was just a short walk along the lagoon. On the day of the experience, it was quite windy and the waves were rough, causing the boat to sway a lot, but none of us got seasick. My daughter was nervous during her first parasailing experience and was screaming, but once it was over, she surprisingly said, "I can do it again," which is a typical response for a third-grade girl.
About ten years ago, I had gone parasailing in Cebu, but parasailing in Honolulu was at an overwhelming height! The beauty of the sea and the scenery was amazing! It was the best!!!
As promised, we splashed into the sea, but thanks to the captain's technique, only our feet got wet. I had expected to be soaked, but we were hardly wet at all, and by the time the boat reached the harbor, our feet were dry. The photos (40 dollars, cash or credit card accepted) were taken very well, and they became truly great memories! I would love to try it again next time, this time at 150 meters.
At the beginning, we paid a dollar each in cash for an environmental protection tax, and we gave a tip of 20 dollars when we disembarked (the tip was not mandatory, but there was a note on the boat saying, "Please give 20 dollars!"). We also purchased the photos for 40 dollars on the way back.
小3娘と夫婦の3人で参加しました。
他にもお子さん連れのご家族2家族と乗船しました。
2人ずつの体験だと1人は別の人と一緒になるのかなと心配しましたが、いずれの家族も3人一緒に体験できました。
私たちはヒルトンハワイアンビレッジに滞在中だったので、ラグーン沿いに徒歩ですぐとアクセス抜群でした。
当日は風が強くて波も荒め、船は結構揺れましたが、誰1人船酔いすることはありませんでした。
娘は初めてのパラセイリングに緊張してキャーキャー叫んでいましたが、終わってみたら意外と楽しかったのか「またやってもいいよ」と小3女子らしい素直ではないお答え。。。
10年ほど前にセブ島でパラセイリングをしたことがありましたが、ホノルルでのパラセイリングは圧倒的な高さ!海のきれいさ!景色の美しさ!
最高でした!!!
お約束の海にバシャンも船長のテクニックで見事に足先だけ。ずぶ濡れを予想して行きましたが、ほとんど濡れず、船が港に着く頃には足も乾いていました。
写真(40ドル、現金でもクレカでもOK)もとても上手に撮ってもらって、本当にいい思い出になりました!
また、次回もトライしたいです。今度は150メートルで。
はじめに環境保護のための税金を1人1ドルずつ現金で支払い、チップを下船時に20ドル(チップなので絶対ではありませんが、船に20ドルチップが貼り付けてあって、『20ドルお願いね!』って感じでした。)、帰りに写真を40ドルで購入しました。
This was my first time snorkeling with manta rays, so I was a little apprehensive. But the crew members were reassuring and had a "chill" attitude that put me at ease. They also explanined everything very well. Also, expect that you might not see manta rays right away. I think it took almost a half hour before they appeared in our area of the bay. But overall, this was so much fun as seeing these otherworldly creatures up close was amazing!
The staff was great, however unfortunately, due to other people drinking on the boat & a lot of motion sickness, there was a lot of throw up Incidents which caused the whole ride to be unpleasant and rather disgusting. Not to mention, we had to takeoff our shoes so I hope I didn’t step on anything…. When I originally booked, I noticed drinks and appetizers would be provided, but there is only one option to choose from(food).
If you book, make sure you take some dramamine, even if you don’t think you have motion sickness.
The good news is that we got to sunset on our way back to the pier.
It was nice overall. The staff are friendly and worked hard. Food taste was okay. Generous portion. The boat is small and with waves, my 5 years old got sea sick and was throwing up.
Aloha-thank you for joining us. We appreciate your kind words.
It's unfortunate that your five year old experienced motion sickness. Our vessel is a sixty-five foot long double decker catamaran. The good news is that most guests do not experience motion sickness. For guests who know they have a propensity to experience motion sickness we recommend an over the counter remedy such as Dramamine at least an hour before boarding. Best wishes to you and your family!
Review
The cruise was very nice. Sunset was perfect. Prime rib was OK. I was expecting more. The chicken was great! Fish, was ok too. I would do the cruise again. I would upgrade to see if the food was better. Buffet was ok for an.overall rating!
We had a wonderful time on this boat tour. The scenery was spectacular. We really enjoyed the snorkeling portion of the tour. The captain and crew were very knowledgeable and shared a lot of historical information about the area. Going into the sea caves was pretty cool. We highly recommend this tour.
The atmosphere was amazing! Looked very high end and it felt like it. Staff was very friendly and had great service. Super romantic dinner cruise that I highly recommend to any couple looking for a unique Hawai’i experience. Food was really good, not the biggest portions, but still we left satisfied. I will say whatever the dessert was, wasn’t very good. The only negative. It was this fruit flavored cake but it tasted like dish soap. Other than that this is a must!! Beautiful scenery and nice cool breeze with excellent food and live entertainment! We did pay for the middle tier I believe so it was the four course meal with two drink tickets. I think anyone would love this.
No complaints from our crew (myself, wife, 6 yr old girl, and 9 yr old boy).
It was a fantastic experience and would definitely do it again if we were to ever go back.
We started drinking early and enjoyed a leisurely meal in our usual Hawaii style, and decided to have some entertainment for a change. So, I went with my partner to Rock-a-Hula, which I had been curious about for a while.
I felt a bit anxious about the seating arrangement at the buffet, but there was a newlywed couple visiting from Korea right in front of us, and we had a great time chatting during the meal. An auntie with a ukulele came over to welcome us and asked for song requests, but she was not pushy at all. When I gave her a tip to thank her, she seemed quite flattered.
After the meal, we moved to the adjacent theater. Since it was a Monday and not too crowded, we were guided to the center of the front row, and they made sure to leave space between each group. From my seat, I could see the performers' expressions clearly, and the intensity of the fire dance was so powerful that I could feel the heat. The compact design of the theater allowed even those seated further back to enjoy the show fully.
The show was simply outstanding. Although it was on a different scale, it was comparable to the real Las Vegas performances featuring Elvis and Michael, with a wonderful Hawaiian twist added. I was captivated from start to finish. Even though the theater was only half full, everyone gave their all in their performances, which was truly moving.
The children in the families around us seemed a bit bored with Elvis and Michael, but they were really excited about the songs from Moana and the fire dance.
Thank you, everyone, for your hard work!
早めに飲み始めて食事してまったり過ごすいつものハワイで、たまにはエンタメを楽しもうと言うことで、以前から気になっていたロック・ア・フラに恋人と出かけてきた。
ビュッフェではどのような配席になるのか多少の不安も感じていたが、正面に韓国からハネムーンで訪れている新婚さんがいて、食事中も楽しく盛り上がった。またウクレレを持ったおばさまが歓迎の言葉と共に歌のリクエストを尋ねてきたが、押し付けがましさもなくお礼のチップを渡したら恐縮していた。
食後は隣接する劇場に移動し、月曜日でさほど混んでいなかったこともあってか最前列の真ん中に案内してもらい、またそれぞれのグループごとに一席ずつスペースを空けて座らせてくれた。因みに私の席からは出演者の表情がよく見え、ファイヤーダンスの火の熱を感じるほどの迫力だったが、コンパクトな造りなので後ろの方の席でも逆に全体が見渡せ十分楽しめるようだった。
ショーは流石の一言。規模こそ違えども本場ラスベガスのものと遜色のないインパソ(エルビス、マイケル)、そこにハワイのテイストが加わったとても素晴らしいもので、最初から最後まで夢中で楽しめた。また大きくない劇場に客の入りは半分ほどでも皆が手を抜かず、一生懸命のパフォーマンスには胸が打たれた。
周りにいた家族連れの子供たちは、やはりエルビスやマイケルにはちょっと退屈そうだったが、モアナの歌やファイヤーダンスには大盛り上がりだった。
皆さんお疲れ様さまでした!
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella VIP Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show with your partner. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the Luau Buffet, as well as the performances by Elvis, Michael, and the Hawaiian show. We also appreciate your positive review. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラVIPワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーにお二人でご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。ルアウブッフェのお食事、エルビスやマイケルそして、ハワイアンショーなど楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。そして、ポジティブな口コミも有難うございます。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
Since I came all the way to Hawaii, I wanted to experience a luau, so I made a reservation. I participated with my wife and our two children, aged 7 and 4, for a total of four people.
On the day of the event, we gathered at 5:15 PM on the 4th floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center and presented the voucher that was sent via email at the reception.
After being seated, we enjoyed a welcome drink of Mai Tai (the kids had a non-alcoholic Mai Tai), and after a short hula dance show, the meal began.
The meal included roast beef, roast pork, lomi lomi salmon, and fried noodles, which the kids really liked. There were also desserts like fruits and cake, which were satisfying.
As for the show, we had a very good view from the third row and enjoyed it. I was worried that the kids might get bored, but they were captivated by the fire show, and it seemed like they had a great time.
せっかくハワイに来たのであればルアウを体験したいと思い予約しました。
妻と7歳と4歳の子供の計4名で参加しました。
当日は17:15にロイヤルハワイアンセンターの4Fに集合で、事前にメールで送付されるバウチャーを受付に提示します。
着席後はウェルカムドリンクのマイタイ(子供にはノンアルコールのマイタイ)をいただいて、フラダンスの短いショーを見た後に食事開始となります。
食事の内容はローストビーフ、ローストポーク、ロミロミサーモン、フライドヌードルなどが子供たちには好評でした。
デザートもフルーツやケーキなどがあり、満足でした。
ショーについては前から3列目の席で非常に見やすく、楽しめました。
子供たちが退屈するのではないかと心配していましたが、ファイヤーショーには食い入るように見ており、子供たちも楽しめたようです。
Thank you very much for bringing your family to the Rockaflor VIP Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are very pleased to hear that the children enjoyed themselves as well. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.

If the weather had been better, the color of the sea would have been even more beautiful, which was a bit disappointing, but overall, it was really great! The BBQ hamburgers on the boat were very delicious. There were mostly Westerners, but since the staff were Japanese, I was able to enjoy myself without any problems.
天気さえよければ海の色ももっと綺麗だったのになーと残念でしたが、でも、とてもよかったです!
船上でのBBQハンバーガーはとてもおいしかったです。
9割欧米人でしたが、スタッフさんは日本人でしたので、まったく問題なく楽しめました
Our recent ATV tour was the highlight of our trip to the island. It wasn’t just about the thrill of driving; our guide, Keyoki, enriched the experience by sharing fascinating insights into the island’s history, culture, and even the art of hula. The off-road adventure through stunning natural landscapes was exhilarating, and my family had an absolute blast.
Keyoki is hands down the best tour guide we’ve ever had. He made the tour fun, engaging, and comfortable for everyone. The service was exceptional and truly worth every penny—it felt like a bargain for the quality we received. This tour will undoubtedly be a cherished memory for our kids.
Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure!

I had a wonderful experience and made a unforgettable memory with mom. I was worried about the height because mom is so sold enough. But mom said "if we do again later, choose the higher one. It was very exciting. I wanted to stay longer up there". Never miss this experience. You will not regret it. I want to thank all of the staff who gave us the opportunity to make a goooood memory. I recommend this activity very very much.
The greeter was all set with their sign and anniversary message as we began our walk out the airport after picking up our bags! My spouse was so surprised when they saw their name on the sign and we received our leis. The greeter offered to take our picture together under the welcome to Kauai sign. I had planned our travel clothes with this in mind so this photo is priceless--
We look happy and relaxed with our Aloha spirit. I just wish I had remembered to set aside some small change to tip my greeter.
The flow of the experience is as follows:
1. Travel by bus from the hotel to Kualoa Ranch.
2. Receive instructions and a paper for registration in front of the visitor center.
3. Complete the registration for the Raptor Tour according to the scheduled time.
4. Experience.
During step 2, I wasn't given specific instructions to go to the Raptor Tour registration (it was in English, so I might have missed it). I waited in front of the visitor center, and by the time I realized it, the registration time had passed.
Since there were no specific instructions, I decided to look around a bit and found a map of the registration points for each tour (attached). When I went to the Raptor Tour location, I was told to line up at the back of the registration line, but by the time my turn came, it was already too late to participate.
In the end, I had to join a different tour that was available. (I appreciated the flexibility in changing the tour content.)
To prevent this from happening, I believe there should be an explanation on the experience page advising participants to head to the registration for each tour according to the scheduled times. I would appreciate your consideration of this.
体験の流れは以下となります。
1.ホテルからバスでクアロアランチへ移動
2.ビジターセンターの前で説明/受付用の紙を受領
3.受付の時間に合わせてラプターツアーの受付で手続き
4.体験
2の説明で、特にラプターツアーの受付に行くような指示をされず
(英語のみだったので聞き漏らしたのかもしれません)
ビジターセンターの前でずっと待っていたところ受付時間が過ぎてしまいました。
特に指示がないので少し周りを回ってみたところ、各ツアーの受付の
地図(添付のもの)を見つけて、ラプターツアーの場所に行ったところ受付の列の後ろに
並ぶように言われて、いざ順番が回ってきたらすでに時間切れで参加できないとのこと。
結局、そこから参加できる別のツアーに参加することになりました。
(柔軟にツアー内容を変更いただけたのはよかったと思います。)
このようなことの無いように、体験のページにおいて、
体験の時間に合わせて各ツアーの受付に向かうように説明をつけるべきと思います。ご検討をいただけると幸いです。
So amazing!! We loved every second of our snorkeling adventure. Our local guide made us feel very comfortable and made sure our safety was his top priority. We will never forget this trip!!
We Truly Appreciate your 5 Star review for our guided Sea Scooter Tour off shore at Kapalua Bay. We take pride in making all our guest feel safe and to especially have an Amazing Experience with us. No other ocean activity company on Maui provide the Airtime Watertime Flotation Wetsuits which we fill is the safest way to snorkel for non experienced guests. We have donated 37 of these flotation wetsuits to the handicap and with our guests supporting our business it allows us to do so. Warmest Mahalo
