What a wonderful evening. Perfect location, beach front right at the heart of Waikiki, with a beautiful views from Diamond Head. The Royal Hawaiian Hotel is the most tradition hotel in Waikiki, the staff is very friendly and always ready to help you.
Before the dinner and the show start you can learn more about Hawaiian traditions. The buffet has a big variety of dishes and the food was very tasty. The drinks were very good too.
The storytelling of the show is very interesting they talk about Hawaiian history starting when the first Polynesians arrived, passing by the Royalty time and until it became the 50th state. The dancers and the singers are fantastic!
Great evening under the starts, good food and friends. I would definitely come back again and I I recommend Aha Aina Luau to everybody!

If you're not proficient in English, it might be tough. Over 90% of the participants are American tourists. This isn't specific to this tour, but many American travelers who don't live in Hawaii have some resistance towards Asians (especially older couples), and there are those who openly dislike being around them. If you can't communicate well enough to make jokes, dining at the same table can feel awkward. For someone like me, who struggles with English, the show felt too long and I got bored halfway through. It's a genuine luau show, but if you just want to experience the atmosphere a bit, I recommend a different tour.
英語が堪能でないと、つらいかも。90%以上がアメリカ観光旅行者。このツアーに限ったことではないが、ハワイ在住でないアメリカ人旅行者達は、アジア人に抵抗ある人も多く(特に老夫婦)、一緒にいることをも露骨に嫌う人たちもいるので、ジョークを言えるぐらいの英語力で、意思疎通をはからないと、同じテーブルでの食事は、気まずい感じ。英語がダメな私には、ショーの時間が長すぎ、途中で飽きた。本格的なルアウショーだが、ちょっとだけ雰囲気を味わうなら違うツアーをお勧めした

We participated as a family of four, and while the food was delicious, I felt it was a bit expensive for the content of the dishes. Also, the venue was hard to find, and it took a while to reach the elevator! The show was in the front row, so it was powerful and truly impressive. I still enjoy watching the video. My grandchild was thrilled to have their favorite turtle tattooed on their arm. We had a wonderful night in Hawaii!
家族4人で参加しましたが、美味しかったのですが あのお料理の内容だと、少し高いように思いました。又会場がわかりにくくエレベーターに着くまで時間がかかりました!

Since we had a Japanese guide, even our small children (a second grader and a kindergartener) were able to understand and have a meaningful time. I believe that having a Japanese guide is essential when traveling abroad with kids!

As soon as we came upstairs to the luau, we were promptly met by the luau staff and directed to our table. On the way there, the dancers greeted us with leis and we received welcome Mai Tais. They have regular and virgin Mai Tais, which were good! Our drinks were never empty and the buffet line went smooth. Try the salad, chicken, and the poi - an excellent combination! The best dessert was the haupia and I also tried some bread pudding - both were very tasty. The show started with the MC singing a beautiful rendition of an American melody in Hawaiian verse. The dancers were excellent and the whole show is well worth seeing if you are in Waikiki.

I participated during a company trip. For those who know Presley, it must be irresistible! I also enjoyed it since Michael Jackson and Celine Dion are from my generation. The dining area is on the first floor, with one drink included (cocktail show) on the second floor, and the show only is at the back of the second floor. Even with a last-minute entry, I was in the second row from the front on the second floor. If you enter early, the front row would be... I think it would be fun. Note: The air conditioning is effective, so it's better to have something to wear.

I understand that it's difficult for small children to sit still. Dining out can be challenging, but here, the spacious grounds with grass and sand allow the kids to run around freely for about an hour after the tour bus arrives and before the buffet starts!
Above all, you can enjoy the unique "sunset over the ocean" that the west side offers. Adults can relax with a drink in hand while soaking in the beautiful sunset, feeling like they've traveled to another island.
The show is also enjoyable, and when it gets dark during the fire dance, looking up at the sky reveals a breathtaking starry night!
Our family was very satisfied!
小さな子供がいるのでじっと座ってられないのは承知の上。外食も難しいところですが、ここなら芝生や砂など敷地が広くツアーバス到着後、ビュッフェまで1時間ほど時間があるので子供たちが思いっきり走れます!
何と言っても西側特有の「海に沈むサンセット」が楽しめます。大人もドリンク片手にキレイな夕日に浸れ他島に来た気分も味わえます。
ショーも楽しくファイヤーダンスの際に暗くなった途端、空を見上げると星空もたまらないです!
私たち家族は大満足でした!

I was attracted to the fact that it wasn't an ordinary show, so I made a reservation. I was really excited to see the impersonators of Michael Jackson and Celine Dion! However, I was disappointed that Lady Gaga, who was mentioned in the reviews, didn't show up. Since Elvis Presley is from a different generation, I couldn't really connect with him. I was unsure about including dinner, but we ended up just reserving seats.
Even from the second floor, you can enjoy the show enough, and I had the impression that having dinner in that place might be a bit too distracting, so in the end, I’m glad we chose this plan!
普通のフラショーではないところに惹かれて予約しました。マイケル・ジャクソンやセリーヌ・ディオンのそっくりさんにはテンション上がりました‼が、口コミにあったレディー・ガガは出てこなくて残念。。エルビス・プレスリーは世代ではないのでイマイチぴんとこず、、ディナー付か迷いましたが、私たちは席だけの予約にしました。
二階席でも十分楽しめるし、あの場所でご飯は少々落ち着かなさそうだな、、という印象で結果的にはこちらのプランでよかったです!!

As it was a traditional show, there were a lot of people watching. I'm not sure if reservations are absolutely necessary, but I think the day we went it was fully booked. The show was quite impressive, and I believe it's worth seeing at least once. However, being outdoors, it is very much affected by the weather, which is a downside. We watched it in the rain, which was quite disappointing. That said, there's nothing we can do about the weather, so for those interested, I definitely recommend it!
伝統的なショウだけあって見る人は大勢いました。
予約が絶対必要かは分かりませんが、僕たちが行った日は満席だったと思います。
ショウもなかなか迫力のあるもので、一度は見ても損しないと思います。
ただ、屋外なだけあって天候にとても左右されるのが難点です。
僕たちは降ったり止んだりの雨の中で見てたので、それがとても残念でした。
とは言っても、天気ばかりは仕方ないので、興味のある人は是非!!

I participated with two friends from Brazil in their 60s, two mothers in their 60s, and my husband. Thanks to the lively guide on the bus, everyone was in high spirits.
We were the only Japanese people on the bus and at the venue. I was surprised to find a place in Hawaii with so few Japanese visitors.
There are various paid and free activities before the show starts, and they are all very exciting. Even if you don't participate in the activities, watching the sunset over the ocean is truly magnificent, and seeing the hula in that setting is very moving.
Everything is in English, and I didn't encounter any staff who spoke Japanese, but you can still enjoy it with simple English.
The food was just okay.
The bus ride was about 40 minutes long.
60代ブラジルからの友人、60代母2人、旦那さんと参加しました。バスの中から盛り上げ上手なガイドさんのおかげで皆さんテンションが高いです。
日本人はバスの中でも、会場に着いてからも、私達だけでした。ハワイでこんなに日本人のいない場所があるんだなぁ、と。
ショーが始まるまで様々な有料・無料のアクティビティがありますが、どれもとても盛り上がるものばかり。アクティビティに参加せずとも、海に日が沈んでいく様はとても壮大で、その中でフラを見るのはとても感動的ですよ。
全て英語ですし、日本語を話すスタッフには出会いませんでしたが、簡単な英語でも楽しめます。
食事はまぁこんもんて感じです。

The Polynesian dance show was large in scale, had a solid story, was easy to understand, and was truly moving. The fire dance, in particular, was breathtaking. Since the venue is spacious, I think it's better to choose a plan that gets you as close to the front as possible. We were relatively near the front, so we could feel the dancers' passionate performances up close. Even though I should have been sleepy from the time difference, I was able to enjoy the show until the very end. I'm glad I participated!
ポリネシアンダンスショーは規模も大きく、ストーリーもしっかりしており、わかりやすく、感動しました。特にファイアーダンスは圧巻です。会場が広いので、なるべく前の席になるプランにしたほうが良いと思います。我々は比較的前のほうでしたので、ダンサーたちの熱気溢れるダンスを肌で感じることができました。時差で眠かったはずなのに、最後までしっかりと鑑賞できました。参加してよかったです!
