Hawaii
I enjoyed both the buffet and the show from start to finish. There were some songs I didn't know, but the interaction with the audience during the show really made me feel like I was in a foreign country! I had a great time even by myself!
ビュッフェもショーも最初から最後まで楽しみました。知らない曲もありましたが、ショーでの観客とのやり取りとか、ああ外国に来たなぁという感じが満載でした!1人でも楽しめました!
Thank you very much for visiting the Rockaflava Original Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the luau buffet and entertainment. 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、エンターテインメント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。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。
I participated on Tuesday, and I had heard it was the most beautiful day, but the waves were high and the water was murky. There's nothing that can be done about luck, so it's unfortunate.
火曜日の参加だったので、一番きれいだと聞いていましたが、波が立っていて海中が濁ってしまいました。
こればっかりは運なので仕方ないですが残念でした。
Its our first time to travel to hawaii and attending a luau is for sure one of the things we want to try! I came across online this activity and booked it right away. We had it last night and all i can say was just WOW!!!!! LITERALLY WOW! Me and my husband did the Rock a Lua in the heart of waikiki, Just few steps aways from our hotel. We were greeted with sweet smiles of the reception and entertainers and sent to our table, The set up is good on the dining area, And come to the buffet set up it was all Gooooood!!! Also with the Roasted Pig? Omg! It was so goooooood especially the skin part! The welcome to dinner buffet and the performances in between was just really entertaining! We come to the performance time to the theater and its SPECTACULAR!!! we didnt expect that the show was like that, not the usual show but a lot of performances from singing to dancing with Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. Hahahahah that was the main show! Its kinda scary but at the same thing all of our jaw dropped! Its a jow dropping show and performances. The Dances were really good too, the band, the set up. Basically everything it was a lively and very entertaining show. Id do it over and over again if given a chance! THE WHOLE BUFFET AND SHOW WAS A SPOT ON!!! ITS WAS REALLY GOOD!
There were six of us for the Deluxe 3-Star selection. My daughter-in-law got motion sick from the swaying of the boat, so I suggest taking Dramamine before boarding.
The "champagne" toast was non-alcoholic. Food was ok but not worth the price to upgrade. Drinks were not very good. Music during the cruise was too loud and mostly show-tunes, not Hawaiian songs.
Michael - our server - was quite good. Dancers and singers were enthusiastic. Views were lovely.
Alisha and Chloe were great. This was a lot of fun despite the rain. Be prepared to get muddy though.
The greenery was beautiful, and no matter how much we drove the buggy, the vast ranch seemed to stretch on forever. It was breathtaking to see the ocean as well.
We drove the buggy four times, with designated spots to switch drivers, but the last leg was quite hard, so I think it would be more enjoyable to let someone who loves driving take over then.
The neck warmer we received at the beginning, which fit snugly around the neck, seemed like a participant's badge, so I followed everyone else's lead and kept it around my neck. However, at the very end, when the dust was terrible, I covered my face to shield my mouth and nose, and it turned out to be a great safety guard, making it very comfortable. I thought if I had done that from the start, I wouldn't have gotten sand on my face, but looking back, I couldn't help but laugh at our completely blackened faces. The photos we took after returning home captured some funny expressions. (Sunglasses are a must!)
I was delighted when a cute female staff member took many photos for us at the photo spot. The Moai statue was great.
緑が美しく、バギーで走れど走れど、まだまだ先は長く続く、壮大すぎる牧場でした。海も見えて感動です。
バギーは4回、下車スポットがあって交代で運転しましたが、最後の4回目がハードなのでそこは運転好きの人に代わって貰うと、楽しいかなと思います。
最初にいただいた首にスッポリとかぶるネックウォーマーみたいなのは、それが参加者の印かなと思って皆の真似をして首に置いておきましたが、最後の最後に砂埃が酷い時に口元や鼻を隠すように顔を覆ったら、安全ガードとなってとても快適でした。最初からやっていれば顔に砂が付かなかったのにと思いましたが、終わってみると真っ黒な顏をした自分達を笑えなかったかなと、帰国して見た写真には面白顏の記録が残っています。(サングラス必須)
スタッフの可愛い女性が、撮影スポットで写真を頼むと、たくさん撮ってくれたのが嬉しかったです。モアイ像が良かったです。
First, we watched the sunset sinking into the sea from the boat before entering the water. That alone is worth seeing.
Then, when I actually jumped into the sea and held onto the float, I saw a manta ray swimming gracefully. With its mouth wide open... it was truly moving!
I was initially warned not to touch them, but there were moments when they passed so close that I was scared I might accidentally touch one. Although manta rays are not always visible, I was healed by watching them swim slowly with their bodies larger than mine.
まず、海に入る前に船上から海に沈む夕日を見学しました。それだけでも見る価値があります。
そして実際に海に飛び込み、フロートを握りしめていると‥マンタが悠々と泳いでいます。口を大きく開けて‥それは感動物です!!
触らないように、と最初に注意事項を説明されたのですが、本当に目の前ギリギリを通ることもあり触ってしまいそうで怖かったです。常にマンタが見える訳ではありませんが、自分より大きな身体をゆっくり動かし泳ぐマンタに癒されました。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in our tour. We also appreciate your five-star rating. The size of the manta rays, which cannot be fully captured in photos or videos, is truly impressive. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the manta tour after the beautiful sunset and experienced the wonders of the tour twice. Please do come back to Hawaii again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you. Mahalo!
さえさえ様ALOHA!この度は弊社のツアーにご参加頂きましてありがとうございました。並びに5つ星の評価もありがとうございます。写真や映像では伝わりきれないマンタの大きさは感動ですよね。素敵な夕陽の後のマンタツアー、2度ツアーの良さをお楽しみ頂けました事嬉しく思います。また是非ハワイにお越しになられる際は遊びに来て下さい。スタッフ一同心よりお待ちしております。MAHALO!
The boat and crew were great. The snorkeling, not so much. Make sure you check the tide before you book! It's a sand bar and reef, so if the tide is out it will be too shallow to snorkel. We lost an hour of our two hours snorkel time waiting for the tide to come in, and when it did, it was still too shallow to snorkel over the reefs. And with all the ppl walking around stirring up the bottom, it was too murkey to see much anyway. Pretty mush a loss.
But did I mention the crew? Great music, helpful crew saved the day
Mahalo for joining our tour & kind words for our crew. We feel sorry for that you couldn't enjoy snorkeling at this time. -Team KBOS
This was such a fun family activity. My 12 year old daughter, my wife and I had a blast and our guides Destiny and Khalil were very professional and fun. Highly recommended! Next time we're trying the atv's too!
I highly recommend it, five stars. The grand piano performance and the talented female singer were wonderful. Although it was labeled as jazz, I recognized many famous songs. The drinks and food were served properly, and during the sunset and fireworks, we stepped outside to enjoy the view while eating. I really enjoyed the piano and singing until the end, and I'm glad I chose the course meal. Everyone was dressed casually; there were even people in sandals and shorts. About 80% of the guests were Westerners.
5スターおすすめです。グランドピアノの演奏と上手な女性シンガー。ジャズと書いてましたが私もわかる有名な曲ばかりでした。飲み物も料理もきちんと運ばれたし、サンセットと花火の時は食べてる途中で外に出てゆっくりと見てました。最後までピアノと歌で楽しめたしコース料理にして本当に良かったです。服装はみんなカジュアルでしたよ。サンダルと短パンの人もいました。8割が欧米人でした。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We appreciate that you enjoyed the dining experience at Five Star and the entertainment by the jazz trio. Our entire staff is honored to have been able to help you create wonderful memories in Hawaii. We look forward to welcoming you back to Hawaii next time.
この度は私共のクルーズにお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。ファイブスターでのお食事とジャズトリオでのエンターテインメントも楽しんでいただき有難うございました。ハワイでの素敵な思い出作りのお手伝いができたことをスタッフ一同光栄に思っております。次回もハワイでお待ちしております。
Upon visiting Hawaii for the first time, the first people I encountered were the staff of this shuttle bus. However, when I introduced myself to the person in the yellow aloha shirt, the only response I received was a pointed finger saying "go over there." I went in that direction, found the meeting place, and saw the bus, which made me feel relieved as I sat on a bench waiting. However, I was left waiting for quite a while. There weren't any particular troubles, so I have no complaints, but I think it would have been more reassuring if they had displayed the departure times and destinations.
初めてハワイを訪れて、最初に会う方々がこの送迎バスのスタッフさんたちでしたが、黄色いアロハシャツの人に名乗っても「あっちに行け」と指を差すだけの反応しかなかった。そっちに行けば集合場所があってバスも停まっていて、ここでいいんだと一安心してベンチに座って待っていたが、そこからしばらく放置プレイ。特にトラブルがあったわけではないので文句はないですが、出発時刻や行き先を表示するなどしておいてくれれば不安なく利用できたと思う。
I was worried due to the strong winds and the sudden reservation the day before, but everything went smoothly. We ended up fishing in shallow waters, but it was still quite enjoyable. During the trip, we were greeted by a pod of dolphins. The rental equipment was reasonably maintained, but there might be some inconsistencies. The captain spoke a little Japanese, so there were no issues. There was a delay in gathering participants, which caused us to set sail later, but well, it's Hawaii time...
連日の強風と、前日の急な予約で心配しましたが無事に遂行
状況に合わせた浅場での釣りになりましたが、それなりに楽しく遊べました
移動中はイルカ群れのお迎えもありました
貸し出し道具はそこそこの手入れで、あたりはずれがありそう
キャプテンは多少日本語も話せるので問題無し
参加者の集合遅れなどがあり出航が遅くなったが、まぁHawaiiTimeなので、、、
Food was great! They made enough for seconds for everyone. The boat ride and snorkeling experience was great. A lot of fun. I recommend this experience if you want to have a personalized trip with great people!
Mahalo for joining us! If you wouldn't mind sharing what would have made this a 5-star experience, we would love to know!
We really enjoyed the tubing adventure. It was a fun way to spend an afternoon and cool off.
Charismatic host and thrilling performances by men, women and children representing the different island nations/territories. Food is buffet style with many tasty options. Alcohol free options were also available and enjoyable.
This tour was so amazing! Our pilot was knowledgable and they played fun music during the ride. We saw all the areas of the island that you cannot access. So many waterfalls, Wamea Canyon and the NaPali coast. We plan to come back and to this again with our kids.
This was our second time in a decade visiting, and we were impressed by the displays, knowledge of the staff and the Breath of Life show.
This is an excellent opportunity to experience Polynesian culture.
Thank you for your feedback.
Some of the main activities, such as the lazy river, were unexpectedly closed, and I couldn't enjoy my time there. I was told it was because it wasn't the season yet, but I felt unhappy to hear that after paying the same high price as during the peak season. Also, the water was too cold, which made it uncomfortable.
なぜか流れるプールなどの主要アクティビティいくつかが停止されていて、ほぼ楽しめなかった。
まだシーズンではないからとのことだったが、ハイシーズンと同じ高い金額を払ったのに入園後に聞かされて嫌な気持ちでした。
そして水が冷たすぎてキツかったです。
We participated in the buggy experience at Kualoa Ranch as a couple!
We were picked up from our hotel around 8:00 AM and arrived at Kualoa shortly after 9:00 AM. We had free time until 11:00 AM, and activities started around 11:30 AM. The activities ended at 2:00 PM, and we were taken back to the hotel by bus at 3:00 PM.
The bus picked us up from the hotel and took about an hour to reach Kualoa Ranch! I thought I might freeze to death on the way there because the bus was so cold. (laughs)
There were other activities like horseback riding and cycling, and we were given explanations about the meeting points for each. The guide at that time was Japanese, which made me feel very relieved, but during the buggy experience, everything was in English, and there were no staff who understood Japanese, so I struggled a bit. (laughs)
There were about 15 other people participating in the buggy experience, all of whom were from overseas, communicating in English. They were receiving explanations about the mountains and scenery of Kualoa, but I didn't understand anything. (laughs)
However, the scenery was breathtaking, and driving the buggy was amazing! We took about two hours to go around Kualoa, stopping at about five photo spots to get out of the buggy and receive explanations. The coastline was beautiful, and it was fun driving through the mountains, with plenty of cows along the way. It was really enjoyable, especially since the weather was nice! It would have been boring if it had rained. (;;)(;;)
The activity cost about 30,000 yen per person, totaling around 60,000 yen for two, but it was worth it since we had a solid two hours of fun! (laughs)
For those who will be doing the buggy experience, your face will get covered in dust from the buggy tires, so make sure to wear the goggles and the cloth mask provided! For 2-3 days, my nose and ears were black!

ホテルまでお迎えのバスが来てくれて
約1時間かけてクアロアランチへ!
行きのバスは寒すぎて死ぬかと思いました。笑
他にも乗馬、サイクリング、などのアクティビティがありそれぞれの集合場所を説明してもらえました!
この時のガイドの人は日本人の方で日本語で
とても安心しましたが
バギー体験では全て英語で日本語わかるスタッフがいなかったのでちょっと苦戦しましたwww
私たち以外にも15人ほどバギー体験の方がいましたが
皆様海外の方で英語でやり取りをしてて
クアロアの山の説明や景色の説明など受けてましたが何一つ分かりませんでした(笑)
けど景色は絶景でバギーの運転も最高でした!!
2時間ほどかけてクアロアを1周して
5箇所ほど写真撮影のスポットでバギー降りて、説明を受ける感じでした!
海沿いも綺麗だし山の中も走ってて楽しいし
途中に牛さんも沢山いて本当に楽しかった!
天気が良かったので尚更ですね!
雨だとつまんなそう(;;)(;;)
1人約3万円、2人で6万円ほどのアクティビティでしたが2時間みっちり楽しめたので良かったです!笑
これからバギー体験する方
お顔がバギーのタイヤではねた砂埃で真っ黒になるのでゴーグルと配られる布のマスクはしっかりつけましょう!2~3日鼻くそも耳くそも黒かったです!
I visited on a weekday in April, and it was quite empty, so I was able to ride the slides without much waiting. However, I'm not sure if it was because it was too empty, but the available slides changed depending on the time, and not all of them were operating at all times.
A Japanese woman from the tour was waiting at the pool entrance and kindly explained about the lockers and other things. She also offered help if anyone was having trouble. The large locker cost around $15 or $16, and you could open and close it as many times as you wanted.
The kids seemed to have a lot of fun, and I would like to go again.
4月の平日に遊びに行きましたが、ガラガラでスライダーはほとんど並ばずに乗れました。
ただ、空きすぎのせいなのか分かりませんが、スライダーは時間帯によって乗れる物が変わり、いつも全てがやっている訳ではありませんでした。
ツアーの日本人女性がプール入り口で待っていてくれてロッカー等の説明をしてくれたり、中でも困っている事があれば声を掛けてくれたりととても親切でした。
ロッカーは大の方で確か15か16ドルでした。何度も開け閉めし放題です。
子供もとても楽しかった様で、また行きたいと思います。
The shuttle bus driver and the staff who guided us on the boat were very kind, which made us feel very safe. It was wonderful to see not only the sandbar but also many sea turtles. After coming out of the water, some people felt cold, so it's good to be well-prepared with a jacket.
送迎バスの運転手さんや船で案内してくれたスタッフの皆さんとても親切でとても安心出来ました。
サンドバーだけでなく海亀もたくさん見る事が出来て素晴らしかったです。
海から上がったあとは寒くなってた人もいたのでしっかりと上着を用意出来てると良いです。
Aloha! Thank you very much for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. I'm really glad you enjoyed the sandbar and the encounter with the sea turtles. As you recommended, since this is a tour in the ocean, please be sure to bring a jacket throughout the year when participating. We hope to see you again at the sandbar on your next visit to Hawaii. Mahalo!
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。ツアーにご参加頂きまして本当にありがとうございました。
サンドバー、ウミガメとの遭遇も楽しんで頂けまして本当によかったです。
お勧め頂きました通り、海でのツアーですので参加の際は一年を通して上着はぜひ持参されて下さい。
次回ハワイにお越しの際はぜひまたサンドバーに遊びにいらしてください。マハロ!
I couldn’t stop smiling driving the ATV around such a beautiful and famous location! The team were funny, friendly and knowledgeable.i had not realised how sacred this land is and it was great to learn more. I would highly recommend a visit.
This time, since I was traveling domestically from Kauai to Oahu, I was picked up from the domestic terminal, and the transfer went smoothly. Thank you very much.
今回、カウアイからオアフへ国内線移動だったため、国内線ターミナルからのピックアップでしたが、スムーズに送迎頂けました。ありがとうございました。
We had a great time at Kualoa Ranch! The visitor center was nice and had good food but the tour was outstanding! Johnny and Reece were great tour guides!
Check-in information:
Please note that the map guidance is not accurate. You can check in by providing your name at the ticket booth near the Wailua River boat launch. By the way, I was able to ride the bicycle I borrowed from the hotel and park it there.
About the tour:
On the boat, there was a sightseeing guide (historical explanation), and we all stood up and danced to Hawaiian music, creating a cheerful atmosphere. It's enjoyable even if you participate alone. I don't know what it was like when we could enter the fern cave, so compared to that, the fern volume seems a bit lacking, but it was still a good tour.
チェックインについて
地図の案内とずれているので注意です。ワイルアリバーボート乗り場のチケット売り場のところで名前を伝えれば受付できます。ちなみに、ホテルで借りた自転車でいき、停めることができました。
ツアーについて
ボートでは観光案内(歴史説明)もあったり、ハワイアンミュージックでみんなで立ち上がって踊ったり、陽気な雰囲気で過ごせました。1人参加でも楽しめます。シダの洞窟の中に入れた当時を知らないので、それに比較するとシダボリュームが貧弱のようですが、それでも良いツアーでした。
Thank you for your patronage.

Our captain was awesome so was our server Faith… captain Michael!
It was my first visit to Kualoa Ranch in 30 years. I still have the impression from my last visit that the horses are very intelligent, and I feel the same way this time. I was able to enjoy a happy two hours of horseback riding in a location that is hard to experience in Japan. The guide was also very pleasant. It was the perfect experience for someone like me who loves Westerns and has always wanted to ride a horse in the great outdoors.
30年ぶりのクアロアランチでした。
前回、お馬さんがとっても賢いというイメージが残っていましたが、今回も同感です。
日本ではなかなか味わえないロケーションで、2時間も乗馬を堪能できるという幸せな時間を過ごすことができました。
ガイドの方も感じが良かったです。
西部劇が好きで、大自然の中で馬に乗ってみたいな、と思っていた自分にはピッタリの体験でした。
I participated in a night snorkeling tour with manta rays at Manta University, with transportation provided from Hilton and Kingsland. There was no Japanese interpreter, so I had to rely on observation to navigate the night sea. At first, the water was murky and I couldn't see anything, and it was cold, but I was thrilled when the manta rays appeared, illuminated by the lights. I managed to check in for the tour, snorkel in the night sea, and handle video streaming after disembarking, all through gestures, and I had a great experience even at over 60 years old.
ヒルトン、キンクスランドから送迎付きで、マンタ大学夜学部、野生野マンタナイトシュノーケリングツァーに参加。日本語通訳おらず、見よう見まねで夜の海へ。最初は水が濁って何も見えず、寒かったが、ライトに照らされたマンタの出現で感激。ツアーのチェックイン、夜の海でのシュノーケリング、下船後の動画配信等身振り手振りでなんとかこなし60過ぎていい体験をしました。
Aloha, Ei-chan! Thank you for participating in our tour. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the absence of a Japanese guide on that day. Nevertheless, we are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour and were moved by your encounter with the manta rays. If you have the opportunity to join us again, we would be happy to arrange for a Japanese guide, so please feel free to contact us. Our entire staff looks forward to welcoming you back. Mahalo!
英ちゃん様ALOHA!この度は弊社のツアーにご参加頂きましてありがとうございました。この日は日本人ガイドが乗船しておらずご不便をおかけしまして申し訳ありませんでした。それにもさる事ながらツアーをお楽しみ頂けてマンタとの出会いに感動して頂けました事嬉しく思います。次回ご参加される機会がございまいたら日本人ガイドの手配をいたしますので弊社までご一報頂けますと幸いです。スタッフ一同心よりお待ちしております。MAHALO!
On the first day in Hawaii (May), I participated from 5 PM.
I had a lot of fun and I'm glad I joined.
I forgot my towel and was a bit anxious, but I was helped by being able to put it down on the boat when I got off the parasailing.
Most of the participants fell into the sea and got completely soaked, so it's better to bring a towel if you can.
I think it would be great if there were a towel rental service, either free or for a fee, and also a service providing motion sickness medication, as about 2 out of 10 participants were feeling sick from the boat ride.
ハワイきて初日(5月)に、17時〜で参加しました。
楽しくて参加してよかったです。
タオル忘れて行ってひやひやしましたが、パラセーリングから降りる時に、ボート上におろしてもらえたから助かりました。
参加者のほとんどが海に落とされてビショビショに濡れる方もいたので、タオルはできれば持って行った方がいいです。
無料か有料でタオル貸し出しサービスや船酔いで吐いてる人も参加者約10人中2人くらいいたので酔い止め提供のサービスがあれば、尚いいと思いました。
This was the first time my family joined me trying SNUBA. Doug was the best instructor and guide ever, very patient with beginners. If you have ever considered trying it, this is the place to try. Being able to see the fish and coral up close is amazing. Thank you Doug and Josh for a highlight of our trip.
