All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

It was such a great experience - thanks to Yoshi. He is such a warm and friendly person who really takes care of making it a marvelous trip. He is a safe driver, knows the best secret spots where you can enjoy a peaceful sunset and he is well equipped with his telescopes for stargazing. It was an enchanting experience all around!

Clyde was a perfect host for our Lanai Island Tour. Very considerate and tried to pull everyone in on the conversation. It was great to have the tour given by someone who lives on the island and provided us a lot of background on what it's like to live there. The island was a complete surprise as to its landscape.

We had a great experience and the food was delicious.

This tour was so informative. Our guide was excellent and we each received a pineapple to bring home.

Bjorn was a wonderful guide and was very knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour versus driving it yourself due to the narrow roads.

It's amazing that you can drive up to a height comparable to Mount Fuji. The sunset viewed from there, along with the sea of clouds changing colors as the sun sets, was wonderful. As a couple in our 60s, we were grateful for the easy ascent to the summit of Haleakalā, which made us feel like we really got our money's worth. The stargazing was also fantastic. I have participated in stargazing tours in Hawaii multiple times in the past, but this was the first time we each had our own chair, which was very comfortable (I usually end up standing and looking up at the stars, which always makes my neck hurt). Our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, provided explanations that were very clear and enjoyable. We will definitely come again!

車で富士山並みの高さまで登れるのは最高です。そこから見る夕日と夕日に染まり刻々と色が変わる雲海は素晴らしかったです。60代夫婦としては、労せず富士山並みの高さのハレアカラ登頂は有難く、とても得した気分になりました。星空観測もバッチリでした。過去にハワイで星空観測ツアーに複数回行きましたが、一人一つのチェアが用意されていたのは初めてで、とても楽ちんでした（いつも首が痛くなる感じで立って星を見上げていたので）。ガイドの山内さんの説明はとてもわかりやすく楽しかったです。また、行きます！

It was amazing! We really enjoyed all the different food that was served. Our server was awesome! We loved him!! It was fun watching all the dances.

We enjoyed every aspect of our evening from the Hawaiian cuisine to the show, the music, and the excellent staff! Wow! Would recommend that everyone go to this luau. Thank you to each and every one who made this night memorable, and a special thank you to our server Nick! You were phenomenal!!

I was able to see many whales. The light meal (cinnamon roll, fruit, and one drink included) was also delicious.

たくさんのクジラに会えました。
軽食（シナモンロール、フルーツ、ワンドリンク付き）も美味しかったです。

Sunset and Stargazing was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. We were taken to the top of Halakela to see the amazing views, then due to the crowds we went a little lower to a secluded viewing area, chairs were provided, snacks and tea. Watched a amazing sunset, were provided Jackets as it gets cold after the sunset. Stargazing was unreal! Two powerful Telescopes were used, saw stars and the craters of the moon like never have. It was a memory of a lifetime.

I have been to the Big Island of Hawaii three times and experienced the great nature of Hawaii, which is completely different from the hustle and bustle of Honolulu on Oahu. This time, I stayed on Maui for the first time and participated in a tour exploring the island's natural beauty, and once again, I fully enjoyed the grandeur of Hawaii's nature. While the overall atmosphere is similar to the Big Island, I could feel the unique vibe of Maui.

Although it is still not very familiar to Japanese people, this adds to its untouched feeling, and I became good friends with my fellow tour participants during lunch and other activities. Additionally, the driver and guide for the day spoke in clear English, making it easy to understand the history and points of interest on Maui.

ハワイ島にもこれまで3度ほど行ってオアフ島のホノルルの喧騒とは全く違うハワイの大自然を経験しているが、今回、初めてマウイ島でステイして、島の大自然を巡るツアーに参加したが、改めて、ハワイの自然の雄大さを満喫した。ハワイ島とは全体の雰囲気が似ているが、マウイ独特の雰囲気が感じられた。
まだまだ日本人には馴染みが少ないが、その分、手垢のついていない感じがあり、ツアーの同乗者ともランチ等ですっかり仲良くなった。また当日のドライバー兼ガイドのおじさんが分かりやすい英語で話してくれたので、マウイ島の歴史やスポットの説明が良く理解できた。

I have participated in this kind of entertainment during my stays on the Big Island of Hawaii, but the show during my stay on Maui was the best. This time, the first half was centered around hula dancing, while the second half focused on Polynesian dances rooted in Samoa and Tahiti. The dancers' skills were high, and the woman who hosted the show and performed Hawaiian songs had an amazing singing ability. During an audience participation interview, we were asked about the secrets to our long marriage, which really got everyone excited. At our table, there was an American couple on their honeymoon, and when we congratulated them from the other members at the table, it created a wonderful sense of unity among everyone, making it the best dinner experience.

これまでもハワイ島でのステイの際にこの種のエンタメに参加しましたが、今回のマウイ島での滞在でのショーは最高でした。今回は前半がフラダンスを中心に構成され、後半はサモアやタヒチ等をルーツとするポリネシアンダンスが中心でしたが、ダンサーのスキルが高く、かつ、ショーの司会とつなぎのハワイアン歌唱を担当していた女性の歌唱力も素晴らしかったです。そして観客を巻き込んでのインタビューでは、我々も結婚歴の長い秘訣をインタビューされ、随分と盛り上がりました。同じテーブルには新婚旅行中のアメリカ人カップルが同席していて、彼らにもテーブルの他のメンバーからお祝いを送ると、テーブル全員が一体感で包まれ、最高のディナーになりました。

This sunset cruise was amazing! The staff was outstanding, the drinks and food were delicious and the live music was fantastic. I highly recommend this cruise.

This charter exceeded all of our expectations! The entire crew was super helpful and welcoming. There was plenty of gear and fun activities for everyone. The kids loved the slide, I did the SNUBA experience and we even saw at least 100 dolphins on our way back. Would hands down do this charter again! Aloha from Minnesota

Everything was beautiful, service was wonderful, food was authentically Hawaiian. Such a memorable experience for my family and I.

The entire staff was very accommodating- everything was wonderful from start to finish! We were waited on by the best staff and the drinks came often and quickly. Five stars!

It was a hiking tour that I decided to join at the last minute, but the guide was a kind person. Since we don't have much English proficiency, we listened to the explanations about the plants based on the atmosphere, but along the way, we got to eat starfruit, took a break at a spot where we could see behind the waterfall, and enjoyed splashing around in the water. At another waterfall, we were able to jump in, and we had a relaxing time enjoying nature while hiking. This time, I went in sneakers, so it was a bit difficult to play at the waterfall, but I think if you bring shoes for playing in the water, you can enjoy yourself without worrying.

急遽参加を決めたハイキングツアーでしたがガイドの方が優しい人でした。私達に英語力があまりないので植物の説明などは雰囲気で聞いてましたが途中スターフルーツを食べさせてもらったり、滝を裏側がわから見れるところで休憩、水浴びしたり、もう1箇所の滝壺では飛び込みができたりゆったり自然をかんじなからハイキングを楽しめました。今回はスニーカーで行ってしまったので滝で遊びずらかったので沢遊びようの靴を持って行くと気にせず遊べると思います。

During the shuttle ride, Yamapi explained Haleakalā in both Japanese and English, providing various tips for the drive. Along the way, he helped us purchase donuts and poke bowls at a supermarket as we headed to the summit. Perhaps because it was a day when the moon didn't interfere, the road was congested, so we took photos with the Haleakalā sign with the people we were with. We managed to catch the sunset and captured a beautifully colored sky. The poke bowl we had at the summit was very delicious, and I can understand why Yamapi recommended it. The Krispy Kreme donuts also tasted better than those in Japan. The starry sky was truly moving, as he explained the constellations clearly and showed us the colors of the stars through a telescope. He even taught us how to take photos with an iPhone, allowing us to capture the beautiful Milky Way with our own phones. I highly recommend seeing the starry sky with your own eyes.

送迎の車ではやまぴーさんが日本語と英語でハレアカラの説明や運転のアドバイスなど色々お話をしてくれました。途中ドーナツとスーパーでポケ丼を購入する手伝いをしてくれて山頂へ向かいました。今回は月が邪魔しない日だったからか道が渋滞していたのでハレアカラの看板での写真撮影は一緒に行った人同士で撮影しました。なんとか日没に間に合ってとても綺麗な日の入りの空が撮影できました。山頂で食べたポケ丼はとても美味しかったです。やまぴーさんがお勧めするのも頷けます。クリスピークリームドーナツも日本で食べるより美味しく感じました。星空は星座をわかりやすく説明してくれたり、望遠鏡を使って星の色を見せてくれたりとても感動しました。iPhoneでの撮影の仕方も教えてもらえるので自分の携帯でも綺麗な天の川が撮影できました。満天の星空は是非自分の目で見てほしいです。

Great cruise, great staff, great live music, great food and drinks and great views of course!!!! Everything was wonderful! :))

From the wonderful, friendly staff to the delicious family style dinner to the amazing entertainment~ the best luau thus far!

Yoshi was so sweet and kind. He provided snacks, water, cold weather gear, chairs, hot chocolate. The ride felt safe. He knew all the spots to be away from crowds and with perfect views. Super knowledgeable to get fabulous pictures. Highly recommend.

Good appetizers, drinks and fun crew. Recommended.

This show has been upgraded and is really solid. The servers and drinks were good, but I felt the food/buffet was pretty weak. If you are in it for the food, there are probably better luaus.

The Luau was enjoyed by all’. The staff was friendly and efficient, the food was good, and the entertainment enthusiastic.

We had an amazing time at the Luau! The atmosphere, food, staff and entertainment were amazing. I highly recommend you throw on your favorite Hawaiian dress and attend this Luau!

The show was just fabulous with such talented dancers, drummers, and a fire knife performer!

Old Lahaina Luau lives up to its reputation - beautiful oceanfront sunset views on top of delicious cuisine, and a fabulous show!

VIP treatment was so worth it with excellent seating close to the stage and personalized services!

The food was delicious and the Polynesian show was lively and captivating, perfect for while I was staying inside the Sheraton!

Excellent service, beautiful grounds, interesting authentic Hawaiian foods, great show with historical stories. Drinks delicious too! Good vegetarian options.
