Our lei representative was really fantastic and had great knowledge of the airport and Hawaii. Thanks for being on time my family; especially the ladies loved the lei they received.

My family and I had a wonderful time. The entire night we were laughing and enjoying the show. The view is beautiful and the staff was great. I would definitely recommend this to people looking for a Luau.

Overall, the show and activities were really good. However, we feel that there could have been some improvements in other areas.
First, the people who paid extra to sit next to the stage had to climb a great many steps which had no hand rails, to reach the food, drinks and to use the restrooms. There should be an area for the food and drinks to be closer for those people seated near the stage who paid more money for their tickets.
Secondly, after the first time that the our server came to help me with our order, she returned to see if we needed more food, but did not return after that to see if we wanted any dessert or coffee. The dessert and coffee were on another section of the upper level.
Third, since I was in a wheelchair, when the show started, I was wheeled in through the back of the stage to my seat. My wife was told that she could not come with me or exit the way I came in, causing a big problem at the end of the show. She was told to go to the customer relations des

My husband and I loved it. Never flew in a helicopter before. Exciting! Safety conscious pilot-Roger was great! Music in headphones enhanced the experience. Views of volcano were wonderful. Roger gave all occupants plenty of photo taking opportunities. This was one of our favorite activities on our trip to Hawaii.

You must do this luau when you are in Oahu. Get the Deluxe Dinner Package...it is worth every penny. The staff was awesome, the food was excellent, the luau was amazing. The package includes a lei, coffee cup, souivener picture, 4 course meal that is served to you. I will go again when I am back in Hawaii.

It was amazing! I was also grateful that the pilot happened to be Japanese. While flying in the sky, he provided a thorough guide. I ended up sharing the ride with a Canadian family, and we enjoyed the English guide while sharing our excitement together.
One issue I encountered was when I arrived at the hotel and needed to make a call, but the person on the other end only spoke English. Since I hardly understand English, I ended up asking for help from the Japanese desk at the hotel, which resolved the situation.
The price is high, but it is well worth the experience. I recommend this tour for both couples and families.
最高でした!たまたま操縦士の方が日本人だったことも,ありがたかったです。上空を飛んでいるときには丁寧なガイドをしてくださいました。カナダ人の家族と同乗することになりましたが,英語のガイドも楽しみつつ,みんなで感動を分かち合いました。
困った点としては,現地でホテルに着いたときに連絡をするのですが,その電話先の方が英語しかわからなかったことです。私も英語はほとんどわからないので,結局ホテルにある日本語デスクの方に協力をお願いして事なきを得ました。
値段は高いですが,この感動には十分見合った金額です。カップルでもファミリーでもおすすめのツアーです。

I participated in the luau show because I wanted to show it to my mother, who was visiting Hawaii for the first time. Since we had a small child with us, I chose standard seating, thinking it might be troublesome if the child started to make noise. However, it turned out to be fine since we were seated directly in front. The only downside was that we had to wait a little to get our food after the Golden Circle guests.
The food was good, especially the sushi rolls and roast beef, but the rest was just average. It was fun to see various dances, and the fire dance was particularly impressive. Instead of making noise, the child was actually keeping rhythm with the music.
It was great that we could take commemorative photos with the dancers after the show.
初ハワイの母にルアウショーを見せたくて参加しました。
席は小さい子供がいるので騒ぎ出して迷惑になったら困ると思いスタンダードシートにしました。見づらいかなぁと思っていましたが、正面だったからか何の問題もなかったです。ただ、お料理を取りに行くのはゴールデンサークルシートの方達のアトになるので少し待ちますが。。。
お料理は海苔巻きとローストビーフは美味しかったですが他は普通かな。
色々なダンスを見ることができて楽しかったです。その中でもファイヤーダンスは迫力がありました。子供も騒ぎ出すどころか音楽に合わせてリズムをとっていました。
ショー終了後にダンサーの方々と記念撮影ができたのは良かったです。

We really enjoyed the Lei Greeting upon our arrival in Lihue. It really helps to settle you in after that long flight. As first timers, our contact took pictures for us and pointed out where to get to the car rental shuttles. it's always nice to find a friendly face in the crowd when traveling.

Took the family for the full day package. It was fun and interesting to see the different dances and learn about the different cultures. The food was really good and the show was excellent. Everyone should go at least once and you may need to go back to see what you missed the first time.

As we have done a couple Luaus before I knew what to expect. This is a pretty good one - their location is fantastic - much better than Germaine's. And really loved the Hawaiian activities before the dinner. The food and drinks were average though. The drinks at Germaine's were a lot stronger. This Luau was also a little more restrained - better for families and older couples? Germaine's was a lot more fun and relaxed.

Everyone would be well served to visit this beautiful memorial and remember why we enjoy so many freedoms. We will recount the cost of liberty and be more grateful. The Mighty Mo was awe inspiring and strengthened my pride in America! No trip to Hawaii would be complete without a visit to these sacred memorials.

Made sure we didn't require any assistance getting to bag claim. Overall a nice welcoming to Hawaii, especially since it was my Nephew's first visit!

I participated in early December 2011. Unfortunately, I had joined a tour to see the lava in 2009, but due to the wind direction of the gas, I couldn't see the ocean entry. I thought about getting a revenge tour, but I was informed that there wasn't much volcanic activity and the ocean entry couldn't be seen, so I decided to join the helicopter tour to see it from above. This time, there was a bit of light rain, and I could only see the moving lava with the naked eye to a limited extent. I was able to see trees being consumed by the lava and flames rising, as well as lava flowing down the cliffs like a thin waterfall. I plan to get revenge during a time of more active activity. However, it was enjoyable to see the town of Kalapana, which had been swallowed by lava in the past, with houses starting to be built again, and the beautifully planted macadamia nut farms. It seems that the seating is determined by weight at check-in, and luckily, I was seated next to the pilot. On the way back to the airport, everyone enjoyed chatting, but I regretted not studying English conversation more. There were participants from various countries.
2011.12月初旬に参加しました。
あいにく2009に溶岩を見に行くツアーに参加しましたが、溶岩のオーシャンエンターがガスの風向きで見れず、リベンジをと思いましたが、火山活動があまりなくオーシャンエンターは見れないとのことで、ヘリで上から見てみたいと参加しました。今回も小雨混じりで動いている溶岩は肉眼で少し確認できた程度でした。生えている木が溶岩に呑まれて炎が上がっている様子や、細い滝のようにがけを流れている溶岩が見れました。 また活発な活動の際にリベンジです。 しかし上空から昔溶岩に飲み込まれた町カラパナにまた家がぽつぽつ建ちだしている様子や、壮大にきれいに植えられているマカダミアナッツ農場を見れたりと楽しかったです。受付時の体重で席は決められるようで、ラッキーなことにパイロットの並び席でした。空港に戻る際にはみんなで会話を楽しむかんじでしたが、もっと英会話べんきょうしとくべきだったといつもの後悔でした。いろんな国の方が参加されていました。

First it's a beautiful place. They start you off by giving you a tram ride which is a speed contest among the drivers. They tell you about the plants in super speed mode. Your head is going so quickly from left to right by the time the ride is over you can't remember a plant or tree.
They say there is plenty of food but don't sit in the middle because by the time you get in line your picking the bottom of the bowls unless you want Poi which there is a plentiful supply. The show was good but you had better bring a pair of binoculars because for the majority of it you see it across a lake. Occasionally the performers were in front of you but not often enough. Felt weird is the word for it. Were used to having the performers a lot closer then what they give you.
For paying top dollar for the Best on Kauai I preferred the one with the railroad.

We learned alot about the differant cultures and were amazed by the talent of the dancers, who also added some good humor to the show. This is definitly a Laua we will be back to.

Once we entered, there was a long wait until the show started. Since we went on the day of our arrival, I ended up feeling sleepy towards the end of the show.
We had to go up in turns to get our food, but our seats were towards the back, so we had to wait quite a bit, and there wasn't much to do, which felt like a waste of time.
It might be nice for those who want to enjoy the show leisurely, but considering the quality of the food, I thought it was a bit pricey, even with the strong yen.
入ってから、ショーが始まるまでが長く、到着日に行ったので、ショーの終わりの方は睡くなって、しまいました。
料理も順番に取りに行くのですが、私たちの席は最後の方だったので、かなり待たされ、ずっとする事もなくダラダラで、時間が勿体なかったです。
のんびりショーを見たい人だったらいいかもしれないけど、料理の内容を考えても、円高でもちょっと高いなぁと思いました。
