Hawaii
As mentioned in the experience, when I went to the reception after 5 o'clock, there was a huge line. After the reception, there was the purchase of leis and photo taking, which seemed to take some time. The seating was full. Since the food was served from the front seats, I was nervous that there might not be any food left by the time it got to the back, but they kept replenishing it, so I was able to eat plenty. The dish with pork steamed in leaves and the dessert were delicious. The view of the harbor and Kona at sunset was amazing and beautiful!! The luau was packed with Kahiko, hula, Tahitian, and fire performances. However, my child got tired and fell asleep halfway through, but they were satisfied with the food. It was a lot of fun.
体験談にあったように、5時過ぎに受付にいったらすごい行列でした。受付の後にレイの購入と写真撮影があり、それに時間がかかっていたようです。
席は満席でした。ご飯が前の席から順にとのことで、後の席だったのでご飯がなくなるかとドキドキしましたが、どんどん足してくれていたので、たっぷり食べられました。豚を葉っぱで蒸した料理やデザートがおいしかったです。
夕暮れ時のハーバーとコナの景色が最高で素敵でした!!ルアウも、カヒコ、フラ、タヒチアン、ファイヤーものなど満載。ただ、子供は疲れて途中で寝てしまいましたが、子供もご飯は満足していました。楽しかったです。
Thank you for enjoying the luau show, Toriko. And thank you for the wonderful photos. I'm glad the weather was favorable as well. We sincerely look forward to your next visit.
とりこ様 ルアウショーをお楽しみいただきありがとうとざいます。そして素敵な写真。天候にも恵まれて嬉しく思います。また是非お越しいただけますよう心よりお待ちしております。
Initially, it was promised that if whales were not seen, re-boarding tickets would be distributed, but most people did not receive the re-boarding tickets. I think it's almost impossible to ride again given the length of stay. From the beginning, they should have suggested a half-price refund if whales were not seen.
最初の約束では、クジラが見れない時は、再乗車券を配布とありましたが、ほとんどの人は再乗車券は受け取りませんでした。だって滞在日数から再度乗車する事は、ほとんど不可能だと思います。最初から、クジラを見れない時は、半額返金などを提案すべきです。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
We are very sorry that you were unable to observe any whales this time.

Unfortunately, we were unable to see any whales. I had read experiences beforehand and thought there would be plenty of soft drinks, fruits, and snacks available on the boat, but there was nothing to eat. The fruits disappeared in no time, and all that was left were broken chips. Soft drinks were unlimited.
残念ながらクジラを見ることはできませんでした。
事前に体験談を読んで、ソフトドリンク、フルーツや軽食などが船に豊富に用意されているように思っていましたが、口にするものは何もなかったです。
フルーツはあっという間になくなってしまい、あったのは割れたチップスだけでした。
ソフトドリンクは飲み放題です。
There were no whales.
I feel like crying.
It just turned into a morning cruise.
The scenery was amazing, though.
On the bus back from the dinner cruise, there was a video playing about a guarantee, but what was that about?
クジラいませんでした。
泣きそうです。
ただの朝クルーズとなってしまいました。
景色は最高でしたが。
ディナークルーズの帰りのバスの中で保証付きってビデオ流れていたけどなんなのか?

It was good my friends and I really enjoyed it. The view was breathtaking & the crew on board were so friendly and helpful. I am a picky eater so the food was alright to me however my friends really enjoyed it. If prone to seasickness, I recommend you take medication before getting onto the boat.
I went on this cruise with my friends as we all met in Hawaii for a little vacation. This dinner cruise was wonderful. We got to see the sunset and the food was delicious however we were just happy to be surrounded by great company and the view. If driving out keep in mind the traffic as it will get busy.
Our family enjoyed the sunset dinner cruise. Unfortunately it was cloudy so we didn’t have much of a sunset, but like others mentioned you just had to get up and go out on the deck as they don’t make any announcement. The food was okay. Service was great. The entertainment was good as well. But i’m not sure It was worth the money so I probably wouldn’t do it again.
I signed up because I wanted to see whales, but in the end, I couldn't see any. All I saw were a few small sharks and dolphins in the distance. Since both the sharks and dolphins were far away, it wasn't very exciting, and with nothing to see in the vast ocean, the nearly three-hour duration became quite boring. Considering it was a bit pricey for a cruise, I wonder if I can endure it...
クジラを見たくて申し込みしましたが…
結局クジラを見ることは出来ず。
遠いところに、何頭かの小さいサメと イルカだけ。サメもイルカも遠いところだったので、
感動もそれほどなく大海原の景色も
何も見えないと、3時間近い時間は飽きてきます。ちよっと高額なクルージングと思えば、
ガマンできますかね…。
It was very good. We were blessed with great weather, and thanks to the guide's attentive service, we had a wonderful experience. I highly recommend sightseeing in Maui.
大変良かったです。お天気に恵まれ、またガイドさんのきめ細かいサービスで素晴らしい体験ができました。マウイ島観光のおすすめです。
Thank you for enjoying the Haleakalā Stargazing Tour. I will also pass this on to the guide.
ハレアカラ星空ツアーをお楽しみ頂けまして、ありがとうございます。
ガイドにも伝えさせて頂きます。
Everything was perfect. A very nice bus ride to the ship, all you can eat snow crab legs diner, the wonderful service & entertainment & of course the beautiful views.
Had a great time on the cruise with my friend and her family! Everyone couldn’t wait for the all you can eat crab legs! Once we took off everyone was having a awesome time watching the scenic view as we ate and later walked around. The kids we having so much fun watching the entertaining dancers then even more fun when they got to dance too! The crew, the food & the entertainment were amazing!
The food was okay and the show was good. Since the cruise was floating slow we felt seasick.
The guide, Yamapi, was incredibly attentive. The Krispy Kreme donuts were freshly made and absolutely delicious. During donut time, he made sure to engage with all the participants, which helped everyone bond. I was also happy to stop by the supermarket to buy dinner and choose my own bento. Tours like this are quite rare. The stargazing was simply beautiful and amazing. I would love to join again when I come back to Maui.
ガイドの山ピーさんの気配りがすごく良いです。クリスピードーナツは出来立てなので最高に美味しいです。またドーナツタイムで参加者に万遍無く話しかけてくれるので参加者とも仲良くなれます。夕飯のお弁当を買うためスーパーへ寄り、自分でお弁当を選べるのは嬉しかったです。このようなツアーはなかなかありません。星空観測はとにかくきれいで素晴らしいです。またマウイへ来たら参加したいです。
Thank you for coming all the way to Maui from China. I understand that there must be various challenges during your assignment, but please come and enjoy the peacefulness of Maui at least once a year.
中国からのわざわざマウイまで来ていただき感謝です。色々と赴任されてご苦労もあると思いますが、1年に一回でも心安らぐマウイに遊びに来てくださいね。
Good tour around the city and the hawaii 5 o locations. But often we only drove by with no stop in front of the spots. Interesting background information about the show and making of.
Unfortunately our guide amy had obviously not a good day. We had the feeling, that she was not really "with us".
She was pretty uninterested to tell more than asked and seemed uninvolved.
Our family attended the dinner cruise on Thanksgiving and we were not disappointed. The food and scenery were both excellent, and the tour guide was very knowledgeable and was able to answer questions. The music was also very good, and there was even some dancing during the return trip. Would highly recommend this trip during your stay on the Big Island.
Aloha Mark,
Thanks so much for this review! We like to think we are a five-star operation, and always appreciate these affirmations! So nice to hear you had a wonderful time.
As a major fan, accompanied by a moderate fan indulging me, we both had a great time. Amy made sure all had fun. We had a lot of laughs, she shared some fun stories and we got to see all the sights. All of O'ahu seems to be a Hawaii Five-O set, but the key spots and how those get adjusted for better TV are all in the tour. High light of course is the time we got to spent at the mcgarrett house. The owners of the bayer estate are so lovely and welcoming, a hugh Mahalo to them. We were extra lucky, because as soon as we got into the car we were invited to a preview of the 200th episode 3 days later at the mcgarrett house. that was the highlight of our trip. We had such a good time and got to talk to Dennis Chun and his lovely wife Laura. Both were so friendly. The Episode was amazing and at our tour we already saw the house which was used in filming that episode. We were just in time to also see the restaurant before the plot line ended. Even if you only know about the show and are not a fan the tour is highly recommended because you're guaranteed to have fun and see lots of O'ahu As a fan you're guaranteed to have the best time of your life, because apart from an actual meet and greet this is the best way to connect to your favourite show. what other show has real life sets you can actually visit?!? Amy, you rock! Next barefoot bottle is on us :-)
A great experience. The traditional music, food, atmosphere were all fantastic. Our guide Pua was exceptional. Filled us full of knowledge, most of all she was polite, courteous, personable, and very interactive.
In the end, I couldn't see anything at all, neither shadow nor figure. It seems like they tried their best, but... I received a ticket for the next boat ride, but since it was the last day of my trip, I couldn't use it. The boat was fairly large and not crowded, so I could go out on the deck or sit comfortably in a chair. It felt like a drive on the water in pleasant weather.
結局、何も影も姿も、見ることはできませんでした。
頑張ってくれたみたいですが・・。
次回乗船チケットをもらいましたが、旅行最終日だったので、使えませんでした。
船はそこそこ大きくて、満員でもないので、甲板に出たり、ゆったり椅子に座ったり。
気持ちのよい天気の中、船でドライブ、といった感じでした。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
We are very sorry to hear that you were unable to see any whales on the day of your participation.
If you have the opportunity, please come again.
All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.

Amy was the perfect guide very knowledgeable and interesting so Kim and myself whould definitely recommend this tour
Avery big thank you to amy
Enjoyed the dinner buffet, would probably only recommend maybe a start time a little earlier like 3 p.m. This would allow everyone a chance to enjoy to cruise during daylight before the dinner start.
While the tour was quite good, I would only reccomend it for the die hard fans. We got to see a lot of areas where they filmed, but it was predominantly from the van we were driven around in.
The hosts, while very knowledgable, seemed to be more interested in how they have been involved in the show and sharing stories of there time working with the actors.
The only real highlight of the whole trip was going to the location of Steve McGarrett's home, and we were only there for a maximum of maybe 10 minutes.
This was a great experience the food, view and dancing. So well worth it would do it again.
We were promptly picked up at the designated time at the pier. This tour went West to Lahaina. The road thru the mountains became very narrow in places but our driver Halley did an excellent job of navigating the turns. This road was definitely more scary than the road to Hana.
Halley did a good job in explaining the various sights just as Sammy did the day earlier. She made frequent stops so we could get photos.
Once we arrived in Lahaina Town, Halley recommended a nice restaurant where we had lunch overlooking the ocean.
We were very pleased with this tour and would highly recommend it.
Our excursion went extremely well. We were met at the pier at the designated time with no issues. We met our driver/guide and were on our way. Our driver was Bobbie who gave us a very comprehensive verbal overview of the entire trip. She would pull over at various times to let us get photos of the scenery. We liked the fact that we could stay at any stop for extended time if needed.
Because Bobbie was Hawaiian raised, she could give us a perspective of Hawaiian life on the island.
The van was very comfortable and the driving was very good. No speeding. She gave us plenty of bathroom stops.
All in all we very much enjoyed the trip and would recommend this tour.
Awesome show! Went to another luau a few years ago at the Polynesian Culture Ctr and was bored! But this show was 100% better and this show flows.
My wife and I had a great time at your show well worth the evening
The guide's talk, which included local information, was fascinating, and I was able to enjoy myself throughout. The sunset above the clouds and the starry sky from the mountaintop were incredibly beautiful and exceeded my expectations. The attention to detail to ensure participants were comfortable made it a great tour where I felt the hospitality. It's a highly recommended tour that I would love to join again when I visit Maui.
ガイドさんの現地情報も含んだトークが興味深く、終始楽しく過ごすことができました。山の上から見た雲上のサンセットと満天の星空は想像以上に素晴らしく美しい景色で感動しました。参加者が快適に過ごせるよう細かな所まで気を配っていただき、ホスピタリティを感じる良いツアーでした。
またマウイに行ったら参加したいと思えるとてもおすすめのツアーです。
The sunset at the summit presents a breathtaking beauty that changes every day. We strive to provide a memorable tour for everyone to enjoy.
山頂の夕焼けはこのように息をのむ美しさが毎日変化して現れます、皆さんが楽しめて心残るツァーを心がけます。
I would like to thank our guide, Yamauchi, for the thorough preparations that ensured we could definitely observe the starry sky. I was surprised to see that there was a telescope with GPS as well.
星空を確実に観測出来るよう周到な準備を頂いたガイドの山内さんに感謝します。GPS付きの望遠鏡もあるなんてビックリしました。
On October 30th, we participated as a couple.
We were overwhelmed by the incredible beauty of nature that you can't see in reality.
The sunset sinking into the clouds.
The shadow of the Earth that can only be seen here.
The colors of the sky between evening and night.
We couldn't move from the sunset spot; we wanted to keep watching it forever.
As the sun set further, we even got to see the night view of the town of Kona, which made us forget about car sickness.
The main event was the breathtaking starry sky.
You have to see it in person to understand; it's definitely worth it.
The number of stars is unmatched by any other stargazing spot.
I never thought the Milky Way could be so captivating.
From start to finish, everything captivated my heart, leaving me speechless, with countless memories that can't be captured in photos.
And our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, brought out the best in this experience.
I never expected to see him featured in a travel guide. (laughs)
He carefully shared detailed recommendations for spots on Maui, showcasing the greatness of this island that could change one's perspective on life.
All his stories left a lasting impression on me.
Perhaps because of such a wonderful guide, the other participants were also amazing people.
I will definitely return to Maui!
Thank you for the wonderful tour!
For those considering it, you absolutely should take this tour!
Oh, and if you're prone to motion sickness, you'll need some medication.
10月30日、夫婦で参加しました。
現実では見られないような自然の凄さに圧倒されました。
雲に沈む夕陽。
ここでしか見られない地球の影。
夕方と夜の間の空の色。
サンセットスポットから足が動かず、いつまでも見ていたかったほど。
さらに日が沈み、まさかのコナの街並みの夜景まで見れて車酔いなんて吹っ飛んだほど。
最大のメインイベントはあっと驚く満天の星。
これは実際に見ないと伝わらないので、絶対見る価値あり。
どんな星空スポットも叶わないほどの星の数。
天の川がこんなに心を奪われるものだと思わなかった。
始まりから終わりまで全てに心を奪われ、言葉を失い、写真には収まらない思い出がたくさん。
そして、それを最大限に発揮させてくれたガイドのヤマウチさん。
まさかるるぶに載ってるとは思いませんでした。笑
マウイ島のオススメスポットを細かく丁寧に教えて頂き、この島の素晴らしさ、人生観を変えるほどの島の偉大さ。
どのお話も心に残りました。
そんな方のツアーだからか、同乗の方達もとても素晴らしい方達でした。
また、マウイ島に絶対戻ってきます!
ステキなツアーをありがとうございました!
検討されてる方は絶対このツアーにすべきです‼️
あっ、乗り物に弱い方は酔い止めが必要です
They also stopped by a local supermarket, which was great. It's reassuring to acclimatize to avoid altitude sickness while heading to the summit. If possible, I think participating during the new moon would allow for a beautiful view of the Milky Way. Stargazing was very enjoyable, with chairs to sit on, blankets available, and a warm tea gathering.
地元スーパーマーケットにも寄ってくれたり、盛り沢山。高山病にならないように体を慣らしながら山頂に行くので安心です。出来るなら、やっぱり新月に参加すると、天の川がキレイに見えると思います。星空観察はいすに座って、毛布もあり、温かいお茶会もありとても良かったです。
Thank you, Kiki. We look forward to seeing you again next year!
ききちゃん、
ありがとうございます。又来年もお待ちしてます!
