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 at E Noa pride ourselves on sharing the Hawaiian language and culture with all of our guests. Thank you for such a wonderful review and the 5 star rating. We hope you choose E Noa again next time you're in Hawai'i!

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!

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.

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.

This trip was awesome! We are a family of 4 (kids age 5 and 11) and everyone LOVED our time on the boat. The crew was amazing - very informative and helpful. They looked out for everyone’s safety but also made sure folks were having fun. Food was good and they had adult beverages for purchase. Very kid friendly - had child-sized snorkel gear and life jackets. The boat was very clean. Not to mention the beautiful landscape as your backdrop for swimming/snorkeling/turtle-watching…pictures can’t adequately capture just how breathtaking it all was. We didn’t want it to end!

We had a very good experience on board this vessel. The crew was kind, courteous and knowledgeable. Captain Jesse and the crew were very entertaining. We did find a whale about 50 yards off the bow, caught a shot of his tail! Great boat ride, beautiful scenery and gorgeous weather! Well worth the price of admission! Thank you to everyone involed!!!!!!

I took my folks on this boat trip, and they had a great time. We spotted a whale about 50 yards out and saw a bunch of flying fish. The crew were fun and informative and showed us all sorts of sites. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see a whale or just enjoy a big catamaran.

We had a great time on the lunch snorkel tour in Oahu! The trip is exactly as described. Hanging out on the sand bar was incredible and the turtle watching was stellar, we saw many turtles and even a large sting ray. Lunch was tasty and alcoholic drinks were $5 each. Crew was helpful and personable. The snorkeling around the reef was awesome! Bring lots of sunscreen, your own towels, an underwater camera or go pro for pics, and something easy and light to wear before and after getting in the ocean.

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.

The vessel is more like a ship than a boat like it has 3-4 levels. Very organized and informational! The staff is friendly. Lots of room to walk around. They offer motion pills or some kind of ginger cocktail to prevent motion sickness. They also offered small snakes like chips. There wasn't an option for breakfast.
I went in February and and I saw about 7-10 whales( sprays, tip of their tails). I think 1 or 2 came close to the boat. I enjoyed it. My little one (5yo) was mostly running around...lol.

Just did the Snorkel and Sunset dinner cruise. I would definitely do this again. The. Staff was absolutely awesome and very very patient. I sometime feel very constrained with all the rules but the staff did a very good job explaining why they have to do what they do to keep all of us safe and still have the best time. The music was great, the food was wonderful. And everybody on the boat seemed to have a good time. Oh and the sunset on the water was epic. I highly recommend this to all!

I participated in this tour with my daughter who lives in Hawaii. It is stated that lunch is included in the tour, but currently, it is not. I confirmed with the staff whether lunch was included, and they said it is available for purchase at an additional cost. Also, there was no explanation about the whales in either English or Japanese.
I didn't have high expectations for lunch based on past comments, but since lunch is not included, I feel that other tours would have been better. (It's not good to have misleading information...) The main purpose of this tour, which was to see whales, was fulfilled as we were able to see them multiple times, so that was good.
Regarding infection control measures, there was no confirmation of vaccination or presentation of negative test results. The staff wore masks, but all the passengers were not wearing masks. It's best to think that this is the current situation in Hawaii. Additionally, many tourists are coming from the mainland United States, where overseas travel has become difficult. There were a lot of people on this tour as well. I thought we were the only Japanese and Asians there.
ハワイ在住の娘と参加しました。
こちらのツアーは昼食付きと記載されていますが、現在はついていません。スタッフにもついていないんですか?と確認しましたが、昼食は有料で購入との事でした。また、クジラについての解説は英語、日本語ともにありませんでした。
過去のコメントから昼食への期待はあまりしていませんでしたが、実際に昼食がついていないのであれば、他のツアーの方が良かったなーと思いました。(嘘の記載は良くないですね...)
このツアー1番の目的である、鯨は何度も見ることができたので良かったです。
感染対策に関しては、ワクチン接種確認も陰性証明書提示もありません。スタッフはマスクをしていますが、乗客はみなノーマスクです。それが今のハワイの現状だと思った方が良いです。それと、ハワイは海外旅行ができなくなったアメリカ本土からたくさんの観光客が来ています。このツアーも大勢の方が乗船していました。日本人、アジア人は私たちだけと思いました。
Dear Barney,
Thank you very much for your recent use of our services. We are delighted to hear that you were moved by the whales.
Thank you for your feedback regarding lunch. Upon checking, I found that it was not included in the tour. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the error in the tour page description. Although you compared it with other tours and booked this one that included lunch, I deeply regret that it left you feeling disappointed on the day of the tour.
We have corrected the description you pointed out. To prevent similar inconveniences in the future, we will strive to improve our services.
Thank you for your understanding.
Best regards,

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

We had a very enjoyable time at Paradise Cove. From the start when our bus driver and tour guide picked us up until they dropped us off, it was exceptional. The activities before the main performance were very good. The live performance was exceptional. The dancers and other performers were great. The food and beverages were good as well. All in all, this was one of the highlights of our vacation on Oahu.
