This was my second time participating, and I felt it had been upgraded compared to two years ago. First, the guide on the shuttle bus made us laugh (in English). Upon arrival, we took photos with the dancers (you can purchase them later for $15 if you like). There were about two hours before the show started, filled with a variety of activities such as canoeing, tattoos, hula dance lessons, and lei making, so there was no chance of getting bored. This time, we had table service for dinner (the fried chicken is exquisite, and the pork is, of course, delicious too). Six people sit at one table, and the others were Americans. It might be tough if you're not sociable and can't speak English. If you're in a group of four or more, you probably won't feel out of place (but if it's just two of you, you'll be sitting next to each other with strangers across the table).
I believe there were about 600 guests, and it seemed like we were the only Japanese people there.
I think you can enjoy it even if you can't speak English. Don't forget to tip the guide when you get off the bus, about $5 per person.
I was actually considering the Royal Hawaiian Luau show, and luckily got to see it from the sidelines the day before, but I think Paradise Cove offers better cost performance. I'm glad I participated.
今回は2回目の参加だったのですが、2年前に比べてバージョンアップした気がしました。まず、送迎バスの中でガイドさんは笑わせてくれます(英語)。着いてからまずダンサーとの写真(後で気に入れば購入、15ドル)。カヌーやタトゥー、フラダンスレッスン、レイ作りなど、ショーが始まるまで2時間ぐらいあったのですが多彩なイベントが用意されており、退屈はしません。今回はテーブルサービスでディナーを頂きました(フライドチキンは絶品です。ポークももちろんおいしいですが)。6人が一つのテーブルになるのですが、周りはアメリカ人でした。社交的かつ英語が話せないと辛いかもしれません。4人以上のグループであれば浮くことはないでしょう(二人だと隣同士になり向かいが見知らぬゲストになるので)。
確か600人ぐらいのゲストだったと思うのですが、日本人は私達だけのようでした。
英語ができなくても楽しめると思います。バスを降りる時ににガイドさんにチップをお忘れなく。一人当たり5ドルぐらいでしょうか。
実は迷っていたロイヤルハワイアンのルアウショーも前日に袖からラッキーにも見ることができたのですが、パラダイスコーブの方がコストパフォーマンスはいいと思いました。参加してよかったです。

This was my second time participating. I highly recommend the Big Splash Package! This time, we took advantage of the summer vacation family special rate (with transportation included), which was quite a deal.
*For 2 adults and 1 child, it was $136 (normally $184, with the Splash rate at $134, so for just $2 more, we got meals and a bodyboarding experience).
As a dad planning a family of surfers, the ability to safely bodyboard was a deciding factor for me.
The meals were all-you-can-eat, and the beef and chicken were delicious.
The bodyboarding experience was as fun as I expected.
My little one was riding just like this.
Local bodyboarders were also riding standing up!
The kids' pool has plenty of slides, so I don't think they'll get bored.
The time was a bit short, but it surprisingly used up a lot of energy, so it was just right.
I also received one more experience ticket, so I tried the FlowRider.
It was quite fun!
今回は、2回目の参加。
ビッグ・スプラッシュ・パッケージがおすすめ!今回は夏休み・ファミリースペシャル料金(送迎付き)の利用でかなりお得でした。
※大人2人 こども1人 136ドル(通常184ドル、スプラッシュ134ドルと2ドルに差で食事とボディーボード体験付き)
家族総サーファー計画を目論むパパとしては、安全にボディーボードができるので決め手になりました。
食事は食べ放題でビーフとチキンうまかった。
ボディーボード体験は予想どおり楽しかった。
チビもままこのとおりのライディング。
地元のボディーボーダーはスタンディング(立って!)乗ってる人も。
こども向けのプールは滑り台が充実。飽きないと思いますよ。
時間は短めですが、意外と体力を使うのでちょうどいいかな。
あと1枚体験チケットをもらえたのでダ・フローライダー
をやってみました。
かなり面白かったです。

Since this was my sixth time in Oahu, I was looking for places I hadn't been to yet, and I signed up for this popular tour.
My impression is that the facility wasn't as large as I expected, and although we had about four hours, it was sufficient. I think it's good for those who have been to Hawaii multiple times, but it might feel like a waste of time for first-time visitors. Toshimaen is larger in scale (laughs).
The most interesting part was the Shaka, which is like a halfpipe. Be careful not to hurt your neck! The Cliffhanger wasn't as scary as I thought, so I went down about ten times.
What I liked here, unlike in Japan, is that it wasn't crowded. The pool itself was average and not very exciting, so I just kept going down the slides, and I got tired climbing back up, resulting in muscle soreness. Therefore, I recommend going on the last day.
オアフは6回目でほとんど行きつくしたので、行ったことがないところを探していたところ、人気のツアーだったので申し込みました。
感想は、思ったほど大きい施設ではなく、4時間くらい時間がありましたが、充分でした。
何度もハワイに行ったことがある人にはいいと思いますが、初ハワイの人にとっては時間がもったいないかも。豊島園のほうが規模が大きいです(笑)
一番面白かったのは、シャカというハーフパイプみたいなやつです。首を痛めないように要注意!
あとクリフハンガーは思ったほど怖くなかったので、10回くらい滑りました。
ここは日本と違って空いているのがいいですね。プール自体は普通で面白くないので、ひたすら滑り台をやり続け、登るのに疲れて筋肉痛になりました。なので最終日に行くのがおすすめです。

I went to Hawaii for the first time. I was really interested in the sandbar, so I participated in this option. It was even more beautiful and wonderful than I had seen in photos. It felt great, and I’m really glad I joined. However, there weren't many fish, so it might have been more fun if there were more fish around. Also, the time spent in the ocean was a bit short, so I would have appreciated a longer duration. The staff, including a Japanese person, provided thorough explanations from start to finish, which made me feel reassured. I highly recommend it.
初めてハワイに行きました。サンドバーがすごく気になっていたので、このオプションに参加しました。
写真で見てた以上に綺麗で素敵でした。気持ち良くて参加してみてすごく良かったです。
ただ、魚がほとんどいなかったので、魚がたくさんいる所だともっと楽しかったかもしれないです。あと、海にいる時間が少し短かったので、もう少し長いと嬉しかったです。
スタッフも日本人の方が最初から最後まで丁寧に説明などしてくれたので、安心だと思います。
すごくお勧めです。

My husband and I had a gret time at the Polynesian Cultural center. The tour bus guide "Kemo" or Cousin K was very knowledgeble about the cultures, and land legends of Oahu. The tour bus ride was 1 hour 15 minutes from Waikiki, but it went by very quickly. He taught us how to speak Hawaiin properly, a few legends from the Windward side, as well as the local spots. Once in the center, we got to see all but 2 islands (very hard to do as the center is huge) and we went to many shows, the canoe ride, the lua, and the night show. It was a very long and hot day that ended in a huge rain shower, but it was so worth it and we do not regret spening the whole day there. Very educational!!

My wife and I celebrated our Honeymoon in Oahu, and choose to goto the Cultural Center for the day, including the luau and the show.
It was an amazing experience!
Each village was unique and the people were so friendly!
My only suggestion is to sell caffinated coffee and soda at the Center...since many people are there all day they will need a pick me up.
The worst part of the entire day was our bus driver to and from the Center...Loretta. She was boring, rude, and forgot we were on the bus.

I was able to see dolphins and sea turtles, making for a very satisfying tour. The sky, the sea, and the greenery were all beautiful, and I took a lot of photos. During snorkeling, I got a bit seasick and felt a little unwell, but it was an emotional experience throughout. The breakfast was also very delicious, and if I hadn't been feeling sick, I could have eaten as much as I wanted.

We purchased the Deluxe Package which included 6 free alcoholic or non-alcoholic drinks, front row seating and tableside meal service. We were greeted with a fresh flower lei (women) and kukui nut lei (men), a mai tai drink and photos with dancers. It was everything they promised.

My fiancée took me to the 5-Star on our last evening in Hawaii and it was the perfect end to a wonderful vacation. From the moment the limo picked us up from the hotel to the time we were dropped off, the customer service was INCREDIBLE. I am so glad that he decided to book the 5-Star since the other decks looked pretty crowded and definitely not as intimate as the Super Nova Deck.
We got the Couple's Plan upgrade and we got window seating, a bottle of champagne and this great photo of us on this pretty leather cover. The maître d' and the waiters provided incredible service and the whole atmosphere was very upscale and refined.
The dinner was very scrumptious and I loved how there were many different dishes served throughout the evening. Also, I had been on other dinner cruises where they bombard you with annoyingly LOUD touristy Hawaiian music, but with the 5-Star, it was soothing jazz and I LOVED IT!
This is the PERFECT romantic dinner cruise!!!

On September 22, I participated in an early morning cruise with friends.
About 30 minutes after boarding the ship, we spotted a pod of dolphins! At first, they swam a little distance away, but gradually they came closer to the boat, and to our surprise, one dolphin swam alongside the bow of the ship! We were thrilled to see the lively dolphins up close from right above the bow. We were able to watch them for quite a while. We even managed to capture on video a dolphin jumping while spinning, which made us very satisfied. Ah, dolphins are such beautiful creatures! They are so healing!
Just as we were basking in that excitement, we moved to a different location for snorkeling. Unfortunately, I couldn't see any sea turtles underwater, but I was surrounded by tropical fish, which was also very soothing. Swimming in the clear ocean felt amazing. After snorkeling, it was time for the much-anticipated lunch. The kalua pig was delicious! I couldn't help but go back for seconds.
The ship was spacious and clean, equipped with restrooms, and thankfully, there were hot water showers available. (It felt really nice after snorkeling since my body was cold.) The guide, who spoke Japanese almost perfectly, provided very thorough explanations, which was great. If I come to Hawaii again, I definitely want to participate once more. Next time, I’ll go for the deluxe option!
9月22日、早起きクルーズに友達と参加しました。
船に乗ってから30分くらいたったでしょうか、いました!イルカの群れ!
最初は少し離れたところを泳いでいましたが、だんだんと船に近づいてきて、
なんと船首の先をイルカが船に寄り添うように泳いでくれました!
私達は船首の真上から、その生き生きとしたイルカの姿を間近で見れて大感激でした。
結構長いこと見れました。
無事、スピンしながらジャンプするイルカもビデオにおさめることができて大満足。
あ~イルカってなんて美しい動物なんでしょう!癒されます!
そんな感動もつかの間、今度は場所を移してシュノーケルです。
私は残念ながら水中で海がめを見ることはできませんでしたが、熱帯魚の群れに囲まれてまた癒されました。
透明度の高い海の中を泳ぐのはとっても気持ちが良かったです。
シュノーケルの後は、お待ちかねのランチです。カルアピッグ、おいしかったです!
思わずおかわりをしてしまいました。
船内は広くて清潔で、トイレ完備、ありがたいことに温水シャワーも出ます。
(シュノーケル後は体が冷えているのでとても気持ちよかったです。)
日本語をほぼ完璧に話すガイドさんの丁寧な説明もとても良かったです。
ハワイに来たら、またぜひ参加したいと思います。今度はデラックスで!

At first, I was worried about getting seasick or whether I could really see wild dolphins so easily. However, the boat was very comfortable, and no one got seasick. Luckily, we saw a lot of dolphins, including two different species, and I was completely satisfied.
We first spotted a mother dolphin swimming happily with her baby. They were so adorable. Next, we encountered a group of dolphins (about 6 to 7). They were all very active, jumping around, and it felt like we were watching a dolphin show.
After that, we went to a snorkeling spot where we saw three turtles, colorful fish, and coral. It felt more like diving than snorkeling. The turtles were quite large and impressive.
After snorkeling, we enjoyed warm coffee, bread, pork, vegetables, and yogurt. It was very delicious after swimming. During our trip, we had a Japanese guide, which made us feel at ease. The weather was cloudy, so it was quite cold after snorkeling. I thought long sleeves would be necessary. In any case, it became a wonderful memory, and I would definitely like to participate again!
最初は、船に酔わないかな?とか、野生のイルカなんてそんなに簡単に見れるのかな?なんて不安もあったのですが、まず船はとっても乗り心地が良く、誰も酔ってる人なんていなかったし、ラッキーにも、イルカはたくさん(しかも2種類も)見れて、もう大満足でした。
イルカは、まずお母さんと赤ちゃんが一緒に仲良く泳いでいるのを発見。とても可愛いらしかったです。次にグループ(6~7頭)のイルカ達に会えました。みんなとっても活発に泳いでいて、ジャンプもしてくれて、まるでイルカショーを見ている感じでした。
その後、シュノーケルスポットに行って、亀は3匹、色とりどりのお魚達に、珊瑚も見れて、シュノーケルと言うよりもダイビングをしたような気分に浸れました。亀もかなり大きい亀達で迫力満点でした。
シュノーケルが終わってから、暖かいコーヒーとパンと豚肉と野菜とヨーグルトを頂きました。一泳ぎの後で、とても美味しかったです。私達の時は、日本人のガイドさんがいたので、安心しました。お天気は曇りだったので、やはりシュノーケル後はかなり寒かったです。長袖は必要かなと思いました。ともかく素晴らしい思い出になりました。また是非参加したいです!

I participated on September 16. The weather was clear, and the waves were calm, making it a perfect day for cruising. Although I was worried about seasickness, sitting at the front of the boat on the net, feeling the wind and waves, made those worries disappear.
When the captain guided us to a pod of spinner dolphins, I was even more excited! The staff explained that the name "spinner" comes from their jumping spins. Although I couldn't capture the dolphins jumping repeatedly on camera, their images are etched in my memory. During snorkeling at a different location, I was able to see tropical fish and sea turtles. The staff, who were fluent in Japanese, were very considerate and made the experience even more enjoyable.
If I had to mention one downside, it would be that the waiting time for the bus transfer and cruising was a bit long, which felt somewhat inefficient.
9月16日に参加しました。当日は快晴、波もおだやかで、絶好のクルージング日和でした。船酔いを心配していたものの、船の先頭のネットの上に座り込み、風と波を受けながら進めば、そんな心配も吹き飛びました。
船長の案内で、ハシナガイルカの群れを見つけたときは、更に大興奮!英語でスピナーと呼ばれる由来が、スピンしながらのジャンプだとスタッフが教えてくれました。私達に見せてくれるかのように、何度も何度もジャンプしてくれるイルカの姿はカメラに収めることは出来ませんでしたが、目に焼きついています。場所を移してのシュノーケリングでは、熱帯魚と海がめを見ることができました。日本語堪能なスタッフが色々気遣ってくれ、また、盛り上げてくれ、本当に楽しいツアーでした。
一つだけ難点を挙げるとすれば、バスでの送迎とクルージングとの待ち時間が長く、少し非効率だと思いました。

This was my first trip to the island of Kauai, and I must say I fell in love with the island. The people are much more relaxed than Honolulu, and the sceneries were just beautiful. Waimea Canyon was definitely the highlight of this trip, and I'm glad that I was able to see the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific". The breathtaking view of the art of the mother nature is worth every penny. The Wailua River Cruise was very nice, and the Smith family did such a wonderful job entertaining us on the boat and at the Fern Grotto. We thoroughly enjoyed their hospitality. This is definitely recommended if you are only staying on O'ahu, and want to see Kauai for a day.

We just purchased the general admission which starts at 4pm til 9pm Friday, 9/14.
We thought that when we get there there will be entertainment in each island that was presented but to our surprise some of the islands are empty. No performers. We did the canoe ride wherein you don't really see much entertainment, just showed us the different cultures of diff. islands.
The Cultural show was the best. But because of the site where we seat we could not really see it very well.
But we had a great time.
Suggestion: It would be nice if you have some more choices of menu in the snack bar for those guests that did not buy the package with the dinner and the luau so they can also enjoy the food even if they have to buy it themselves.

On September 11th, my husband and I participated in this activity. I thought the ocean in Hawaii was beautiful, but I didn't realize just how stunning it could be. Despite going by cruiser, the clarity of the water was amazing; you could see the bottom! Unlike the seas in Japan, there were no seaweed or kelp floating around, and there was no distinct ocean smell.
There were beautiful fish (tropical fish!) and we even got to see sea turtles. We were told that we might not see dolphins, but we encountered two groups of them, and we were able to watch them jump and spin like in a show. Dolphins are so cute! I was truly thrilled!
I really felt that coming to Hawaii was the right choice. It was my first time snorkeling, but I was taught carefully, and since I could borrow a life jacket, I was able to enjoy it even though I'm not a strong swimmer. It was also reassuring to have Japanese staff join us in the water.
9/11に夫婦で参加させていただきました。
キレイだと思っていたハワイの海が、こんなにもキレイだとは思っていませんでした。クルーザーで行くところにもかかわらず、海の底が見える透明感がスゴイ!!日本の海みたいに、ワカメやこんぶが浮いていないし、海独特の匂いもしないんです。
キレイなお魚(熱帯魚~)もいるし、ウミガメも見ることができました。見れない場合もあるといわれていたイルカは、2つの群に遭遇することができ、まるで、ショーのようにスピンしながらジャンプする姿も見ることができました。
イルカかわいい!もう、大感激!!

I absolutely recommend this. My daughter and I participated together. We arrived at Kona Marina in 45 minutes from Waikiki, and it felt luxurious, like we were the owners of the yacht harbor we see on TV. We boarded the boat with a handsome young man, a dandy captain, and a cute Hawaiian girl guiding us. Coffee, tea, water, and canned drinks were all-you-can-drink. The tour guide mentioned that encountering dolphins was not guaranteed, so I thought it would be okay if we didn't see any. However, within 10 minutes, we heard "dolphins" and rushed to the bow, where a pod of dolphins was swimming, including a mother and baby dolphin swimming closely together. The boat kept a respectful distance as we watched, and while learning that dolphins are nocturnal and swim while sleeping during the day, they jumped and spun in the air. I only had my camera, so I missed the shutter chance since they didn't announce when they would jump, but bringing a video camera would be a good idea.
Next, we challenged ourselves to snorkel. After receiving instructions, we headed into the sea, but I struggled with breathing and ended up sputtering. I finally got the hang of it and looked into the water at a depth of 6 meters, where the Hawaiian girl guided us to a spot where sea turtles were likely to be. We saw five sea turtles swimming! Then, we heard from the boat, "Dolphins are here," and when we looked into the water, there was a dolphin swimming right next to us. We could hear the dolphin's "pee" sound. My daughter and I popped our heads up to signal that we saw it. She asked the Hawaiian girl if she could try diving, so she took off her snorkel and fins, exhaled, and tried free diving. After a few attempts, she struggled to go deeper and felt pain in her ears, so she gave up. The Hawaiian girl demonstrated free diving quite deeply.
For some reason, that day, there were only three of us snorkeling: my daughter, myself, and another girl from Seattle, so we could enjoy it leisurely. Others on the boat were watching us. After that, we had breakfast on the boat, which included chicken, bread, salad, fruit, yogurt, and muffins, and it was all very delicious. I decided that I definitely want to snorkel again next time. Thank you so much, Alan1. I had a truly meaningful time.

It was an absolute pleasure spending the day w/these guys, they were extremely hospitable, made sure we had something to drink as soon as we borded, made sure everyone was entertained and that nobody had empty plates in there hands. There were 2 locations, the first was the sand bar where you could either play volley ball or you can have a practice run with your snorkle gear, we opted for snorkeling even tho there really werent any fish but we managed to keep ourselves occupied. The water is gorgeous! After re-bording the Barefoot I, they had a nice lunch spread out for us, and you can purchase beers for i think about 4 bux a pop. We then moved on to our next location which was a reef, it was the best snorkeling experience i've had, lots of fish, caves, a sea turtle & an octopus (which i didnt get to see), it seemed that we got to spend alot of time in the water which was really kewl! On the way back, the driver was pointing out movie locations and stuff, such as Gilligan's Island
