Preston has to be the most amazing tour guide I've ever had the privilege of touring with! From being knowledgeable, to witty, he's got it all. He wants to ensure that EVERYONE no matter what season it is layers up, wears clothes toed shoes (toe warmers like the ones used in Tahoe would be the best idea ever!) and BRING A BLANKET! Whatever size you want, fluffy, non fluffy donuts matter. But, this awesome tour guide lets you leave you items safely on the bus so all your have to comfortable carry the very few far steps you actually have to walk, is the blanket and your camera for beautiful views. Keep your positive attitude when waking early, plan ahead with an energy drink or snack to keep you going until you reach to Kula Lodge (TRY THE LOCO MOCO JUST TRUST ME) and you'll be good to go!

We had so much fun on this tour. Our guide, Juice, was very funny but also full of information about the islands. He taught us all the Hawaiian language and gave us so much history of the natives and the island. If you go on this tour, request him as your tour guide!!

We purchased the Royal package and it was worth the extra $. We were the first to go up to dinner and front row seating.
The show was funny and entertaining! The Chief put in a lot of funny jokes and taught the audience some Hawaiian words and phrases. Food was great, with roasted pork as the centerpiece with lots of authentic-tasting foods.
Would definitely do it again!

We travel to Kona every other year. We discovered the dinner cruise the last time we went and loved it so we definitely booked it again last week. This year was even better. The crew were ready to help anyone needing help. We were waited on and spoiled. The food was tasty. The historian did a great job as did the music entertainment. We took the cruise at the end of March which should have been too late to view a whale. One popped up right beside the boat. The captain steered the boat to try to follow the whale so we could get another view. It started raining later and once again the captain did what he could to take us out away from the rain. We will definitely do this the next time we return to Hawaii.

My last night in Hawaii was with Chief’s luau. The food was great, the performers was breathtaking and the whole evening was delicious. I’ll never forget how welcomed I felt with that lei made with real flowers. I kept it . It simply a must do . It was my birthday and they sang happy birthday to me. I could go on an on. Great party.

Aloha,

We agree that it's unfortunate that you did not see dolphins; we sure wish you did!
Thank you for joining us! We hope you can join us again in the future.

Great show and good food. Just be aware this is long, we were there almost 4 hours from start to finish. Could be a little shorter in my opinion, but the fire thrower was the best we have ever seen at a luau.

We had an amazing time at the luau. The food was incredible as was all the different dances. What I love most is how it takes out to 4 different cultures. I was with a family of 5 with 3 picky teenagers and they all try the different types of food. The really enjoyed the experience. I Absolutely recommended it.

This was not our first luau so we had something else to compare it to. The story line/context of the dance/show was very similar, performed better at Chief’s, the comedy was fantastic but the food fell so far short I felt like we paid way too much for the overall experience.

At the Royal Hawaiian Theater, I enjoyed the Hawaiian dance performed by beautiful men and women, along with wonderful singing, and a show featuring impersonators of Elvis and Michael, all from my VIP seat, which allowed me to see everything up close and personal. The food was also incredibly delicious. It was the best night in Hawaii.

Went here for my wife and I 30th anniversary. We wanted to experience a more "authentic" Hawaiian Luau, not the Las Vegas type with all the glitz. Food was fine, but the hostesses,waiters were outstanding. The ambiance of the setting is paradise. Then there was the actual show! Can't say enough about how much we loved it! Very very talented dancers, musicians and storytellers! Really awesome experience!

Once again the Smith family didn’t disappoint us with this river cruise. Telling us a little bit about the Smith family and the 5 generations who have worked there. Told us about the plant life on the island. We were treated to a Hawaiian song at the end of our short hike. My 81 year old father had no problems walking this short walk. On the way back to the dock we were given hula lessons and told what each hand gesture meant. Then we all did the luau while the song was being sung. It was awesome!
When we arrived to the island I thought I booked the cruise on the Wednesday but it was on Tuesday. I was called because we weren’t there and told it was no problem and that they would be rescheduled for the Wednesday.
Wonderful experience! I HIGHLY recommend is cruise!

The location was outside right on the beach, so you can get up to walk to the water and see the beautiful sunset during the dinner and show. The servers were very attentive and knowledgeable of the food and drinks. We loved trying the different foods from the different parts of Hawaiian/Polynesian culture. The show was fantastic with each dance performed. Lahaina is an awesome town, so I do recommend (if you are not staying near there) to plan to spend at least an hour or two before the luau to walk and explore the nearby shops, other activities, and park/beaches.

For those of us who had been to previous luaus this experience was amazing. The attention to history and story telling was very interesting. The costumes, dances and national history was educational as well as entertaining. (Especially the fire dancer!) Some of our friends had never been to a luau before and also thought it was wonderful. The food was presented beautifully and delicious. (The drinks were excellent too!) We even tried the poi because this was the first time it had ever been explained to us how to eat it and with what food combination. The location was easy to find and parking was ample. The staff were all friendly and knowledgeable. It was a great experience for our group of six and would highly recommend this event.

The Luau was a nice night out. If you are going a couple of tips: 1) opt in for the bus transportation. The site is about an hour from Waikiki in an industrial park. 2) Get the VIP seats. We were seated right next to the stage and received a photo and 3 free drinks. The stage show was excellent and authentic. The food was hit or miss. It was served cafeteria style where you had to go in a serving line like a cafeteria. The pork was 5 stars, while the rest of the meal was 3 stars. Overall, a nice evening next to the ocean (Excellent Views).
Aloha John, Thank you so much for choosing our luau, and so happy to hear that you had a nice experience. We feel the bus transportation is the best option, it may be a long ride getting there, but safer on your return if you're going to enjoy a few cocktails. Our VIP, or Plumeria Luau package was a great choice, with the extra amenities, 3 drink tickets, and the souvenir photo, as well as the Premiere seating! We appreciate you taking time to share your experience with us, and hope you will share your beautiful photos with your friends & family! Mahalo, Germaine's Luau

Our family of 13 attended the Feast of Lele Luau and Dinner Show in February 2022. The setting was beautiful, the food was delicious and the entertainment was delightful! Our table was near the back, which allowed our four girls (all under 10 years of age) to play in the sand and build castles when they got distracted from the show or tired of waiting for the next course. It was a wonderful experience for all!

It's really cold, so I think it's best to be well-prepared for the cold, but the sunrise from Haleakalā Volcano is breathtaking and definitely worth seeing. The road to the summit is steep and has cliffs in some places, so it's difficult for amateurs to drive, so I'm really glad I participated.
本当に寒いので防寒対策ばっちりがいいと思いますが、ハレアカラ火山からの朝日は絶景で見る価値ありです。
頂上までの道は険しく所々崖なので素人には運転は難しいので参加して本当によかったです。
