All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

The seat was in the second row from the front, and it wasn't directly facing the stage. Since we couldn't choose, it couldn't be helped. However, it was incredibly powerful! You could feel the actors' breath. If you have the time, I highly recommend seeing this performance. Thank you!

前から２列目という舞台を見上げるほどの席、しかも正面ではありませんでした。
こちらで選べないので仕方ありません。
ですが、迫力満点！息遣いも伝わってきます。お時間があるならぜひ観ていただきたい舞台です。
ありがとうございました。

The tour details from Beltora indicated an end time around 2 PM, but we were informed that the expected arrival time at the hotel would be 3:30 PM. During the latter part of the tour, we moved slowly through downtown and the Ala Moana area while explanations were provided from the bus. We were also asked about taking photos at the King Kamehameha statue. Since I was under the impression that the tour would end around 2 PM, I thought it might be a good idea to revise the introduction page if the hotel arrival time is indeed around 3:30 PM.

ベルトラさんのツアー内容からは終了時間が14時ころとなっていましたが
終了予定時間は15:30ホテル到着と案内され、後半はバスの中からダウンタウンやアラモアナ周辺をゆっくり移動しながら説明がなされました
カメハメハ大王像での写真撮影有無について声をかけていただいたりしました
14時ころ終了と認識していたので、もしホテル到着時間が15:30ころなら紹介ページの修正をしたほうがよいのかな、と思いました

I wanted to join the tour because I had never been to a coffee farm on other optional tours. I have also done a coffee farm tour on the Big Island. I simply love natural coffee, and there were many different flavored coffees. Although it wasn't my favorite coffee, I was glad to have the opportunity to visit. It was my first time exploring a farm. Before participating in the tour, I watched an introductory video and learned about the tour content, and I was able to walk right in the middle of the farm. This time, I was able to taste freshly cut pineapple right from the field. Hawaiian pineapple is delicious, but the pineapple I ate directly at the farm was even better! I was happy to receive a whole pineapple as a souvenir, but I was surprised that I couldn't bring it back to Japan. The staff at the shop was Japanese, and they kindly offered to exchange it for cut pineapple for the Japanese participants, which was very helpful. The pineapple juice and fruit samples at the shop were also very delicious! Additionally, there were three types of Waialua coffee available for tasting, and I purchased some. I thought the tour fee was a bit high, so I was glad to participate in the monitor tour. In terms of the rarity of this tour, I thought it would be fun to experience places like Wahiawa Botanical Garden, which has free admission, aside from the farm.

ほかのオプショナルツアーでは寄ることがほとんどなかったコーヒー農園に行ってみたかったのでツアー参加を希望しました
ハワイ島でもコーヒー農園巡りをしたことがあります
シンプルにナチュナルコーヒーが好きだったのでいろいろなフレーバーコーヒーが多くて
自分の好みコーヒーではなかったですが寄ることができてよかったです
農園は初めての散策です
ツアー参加前に紹介動画をみてツアー内容を知ることができましたが、まさに農園の真ん中散策ができます
今回は農園の畑でもいだパイナップルをその場でカットして試食させていただくこともできました
ハワイのパイナップルはおいしいですが、農園で直接食べたパイナップルはさらに美味しかったです～
おみやげのパイナップルは1玉そのものいただいたときはうれしかったですが、日本に持ち帰りできないしびっくりしました
売店の店員さんが日本人で日本人参加者にはカットパインとチェンジしましょうか？と声をかけていただいて助かりました
売店でのパイナップルジュースと果実も試食として出していただきとても美味しかった！
またワイアルアコーヒーの試飲も3種類あり購入させていただきました
ツアー代金は高いな～と思ったのでモニターツアーに参加できてよかったです
このレアさの強いツアーという意味では農場以外の場所としてワヒアワ植物園とか入場無料ですし、こういう場所の体験ができたりすると楽しいのかなと思いました

This was my third time sailing. There were some waves, but since it was a catamaran, it didn't rock too much, and it was the best sailing experience.

今回3回目のセーリングでした。
そこそこ波もありましたが、カタマランなので大きく揺れることもなく最高のセーリングでした。

We enjoyed the dinner and of course the main Show ..we definitely will come back again.

This was my first time participating, and it was a wonderful experience. The boat didn't sway much, but occasionally we hit strong waves that splashed water, which was also a fun experience. Most people were enjoying Mai Tais, but since we are not good with alcohol, we opted for soft drinks. Along the way, we saw a rainbow over Diamond Head, and it became a lovely memory with beautiful scenery.

初めて参加しましたが、とてもいい体験でした。船はあまり揺れることがなかったのですが時折強い波に当たると水しぶきが飛んできますがそれも楽しい体験です。ほとんどの人がマイタイを美味しそうに飲んでいましたが、私たちはお酒に弱いのでソフトドリンクにしました。途中ダイヤモンドヘッドに虹がかかり、すてきな景色も見ることができて良い思い出となりました。

We were staying at the Hyatt Regency Waikiki. I would look down from our room and see the small area the luau was being performed in. I was skeptical because any luaus we had previously been to were done in large areas. We were all pleasantly surprised at how welcoming the staff were! The show itself was very well done and the acts were both beautiful and memorable. The setting was small and intimate. There were 9 of us total and we were all very pleased! Music and singing were great!

Tonight we went to an immersive and interactive luau -it was simply the best and I would highly recommend!

We all had such a great time - we were welcomed like family! We loved learning to drum, spin fire “knives”, wrap fish for cooking, bury the fish to cook on the hot rocks, have a traditional kava ceremony, and weave tea leaves to make bracelets, leis, etc. We then had a catered kalua pork dinner and got to eat the fish we wrapped and cooked. This was so much better than the commercialized luaus we have attended before! If you want a true family experience this is for you. If you want the commercialized cocktail filled experience this isn’t it!

Food was great
Staff was courteous helpful very professional
The entertainment was awesome
The view was breathtaking
Thank you

Cirque du Soleil's AUANA is a must-see when you visit Waikiki. The 80 minutes flew by in no time. It was amazing. The entire venue comes together as one. There are laughs, and everyone who comes will definitely think it was fantastic. The air conditioning is strong, so women might want to bring a jacket! Everything in the show is incredible, so please make sure to experience it.

シルクドソレイユAUANAは、ワイキキに来たら必見です。80分があっという間に過ぎました。凄いです。会場全体が一つになります。
笑いもあり、凄い良かったと来た人は、必ず思います。冷房が効いていて、女性は上着がいるかも！内容は、どれもすごいので是非体験してください。

Kei greeter was very friendly and had very Hawaiian greeting for us

Since I am learning hula dancing, watching an authentic hula show was very informative and I had a wonderful time. It was a highly satisfying event.

フラダンスを習っているので、本場のフラのショーを観てとても参考にもなりましたし、
楽しいひとときを過ごさせていただきました
大満足のイベントでした

Whole family enjoyed this experience. Small crowd so made it even more enjoyable. Food, alcohol drinks, drinks for the kids, food, watching the sunset out at sea, and the fireworks. The crew were welcoming and friendly, glad we made this part of our trip.

I've seen Cirque du Soleil several times, and without a doubt, this is the best one yet. The show progresses at a good pace, seamlessly incorporating the beauty of Hawaii without becoming boring. The performers are truly amazing, and the surrounding production is also fantastic. I watched from the front row center, and it was a valuable seat. You can experience the performance up close with overwhelming intensity. Next time, I want to see the whole show from the back.

シルクドソレイユは何度か観ましたが間違い無く過去最高です。展開に飽きる事なくハワイの素晴らしさを織り交ぜながらテンポ良く進みます。パフォーマーの素晴らしさは圧巻ですが周りの演出も素晴らしいものがあります。最前列中央で観ましたが価値ある座席です。パフォーマンスをじっくり間近で圧倒的迫力で体感できます。次は後方から全体を見渡したいと思います。

What a fantastic Luau! The emcee had the audience participating, laughing & entertained. The dancers and the music was outstanding! Food and drinks were simply yummy!

We purchased this event with no expectations good or bad, After a terrific meal and such a variety of good food next came a amazing show well choreographed and just plain goodtime for everyone in attendance
100% We will be back

It's quite a drive from Waikiki, but it's worth it! The nature and stunning views that you can't experience in Waikiki! And the hospitality from the staff was truly exceptional! The food was delicious, and the creative dishes were great too! There was live singing and performances, and there were parts where we could participate, which made the kids very happy! I definitely want to go again!

ワイキキからかなり車を走らせて行きますが、その価値ありです！
ワイキキでは体験できない自然と絶景！そして、スタッフの方々のおもてなし、本当に最高でした！料理も美味しく工夫を凝らした料理も良かったです！
生歌生演奏もあり、参加ができるパートもあったりと子どもも大満足でした！
是非また行きたいです！

I decided to go after seeing the promotion at the Hawaii EXPO in Tokyo the year before last. I watched the entire show, and even a week after returning home, I still can't contain my excitement. It's beautiful and thrilling; it’s definitely something you should see.

一昨年東京でのハワイEXPOでプロモーションを観て、行こうと決めていました
全編を観れて未だに帰国後1週間経っても感激がおさまりません
綺麗だしスリリングだし、絶対に観るべきです

Harasho is never boring as you can see various types of things while tracing back through history. Michael Jackson makes an appearance, and there’s a fire show, so I had a great time! The show is in English, but I think you can still enjoy it even if you don't understand English!

ハラショーは、歴史を遡りながら色々な種類のものを見ることができるので、飽きません。マイケルジャクソンが出てきたり、ファイヤショーがあるので、すごく楽しめました！ショーは英語ですが、英語がわからなくても楽しめると思います！

The atmosphere was full of aloha spirit, with performers who you can tell take so much pride in sharing the history.

Highly recommend for families looking for an authentic luau experience on Oahu!

Chief’s Luau was an unforgettable evening. The fire knife dancing finale was unbelievable!!

I visit this show almost every year. This year, the cast for Presley and Michael has changed. Michael didn't resemble him very much... But the show itself is enjoyable, and I'm glad I went. I guess it's inevitable that the buffet food before the show isn't very tasty.

ほぼ毎年こちらのショーにお邪魔してます。
今年はプレスリーとマイケルのキャストの方が変っておりました。
マイケルはかなり似てなかったなぁ…
まぁでもショー自体は楽しいですし、行って良かったです。
ショー前のバイキングのお料理があまり美味しくないのが仕方ないのかな。

When the performance started, two foreign tourists took out their smartphones and kept taking pictures and recording, which made it difficult to concentrate on enjoying the show. I suppose these tourists think that since they paid for their tickets, it's fine to use their phones, but it was a very disappointing experience. I wish the staff had been more attentive and had taken a stance to monitor the audience.

開演始まると、2名の外国人観光客が自分のスマホを取り出して次々と写真撮ったり、録画をしたりして
集中して鑑賞出来なかった、、、こういう外国人観光客は、お金を払ったんだからスマホぐらいいいだろって考えなのでしょうが、、、とても残念な時間でした。
もう少しまわりのスタッフが観客を見渡して注意する姿勢が欲しかったです。

We had an incredible experience on the Star of Honolulu Waikiki Sunset Cruise - Steak and Lobster Dinner & Hula excursion. Not a dull moment. The fireworks show from the boat was awesome. The food was amazing. The service, exceptional. And the entertainment while cruising back to the pier was a bonus.
We will definitely recommend you to our friends.

The Cirque du Soleil I saw in Japan was great, but the Hawaii version was the most enjoyable I've experienced so far‼️ I was captivated by the high level of skill‼️ It was so wonderful with the kahiko that I almost thought I was in Maui😊

日本で見たシルクドソレイユも良かったけれど、ハワイバージョンは、今までで1番楽しませてくれました‼️
技術の高さに感心して見惚れてしまいます‼️
本物のマウイかと思うほど，カヒコと共に素敵でしたー😊

It was a much more wonderful show than I expected.

We were seated in the third row from the front, to the side. Being so close to the stage, I could feel the performers' tension. Watching them take a deep breath before starting their act made me feel like I was praying for them. When a big trick succeeded, everyone erupted in applause! The people in America really know how to enjoy themselves. I thought to myself that I want to be someone who can cheer loudly too.

The show utilizes the entire venue. There are plenty of highlights in the back and along the aisles as well. I also thought it would be nice to sit in the back next time to take in the whole view, or to see it from the front row in the center. No words are needed, so anyone can enjoy it. I highly recommend it.

予想よりもずっと素晴らしいショーでした。

私たちは前から3列目横の席でした。
ステージに近いので演者の緊張感が伝わってきます。大きく深呼吸してから演技をスタートする姿をみてこちらも祈るような気持ちになりました。大きな技が成功するとみんな拍手大喝采！アメリカの人たちはノリがいいですよね。私も大きな声で声援を送れる人間になりたいななんて思いました。

ショーは会場全体を使ってやります。会場の後ろや通路も見所いっぱい。次は後ろの席で全体を眺めてみたいとも思いますし、中央の前列でも観てみたいと思えました。
言葉は必要ないので誰でも楽しめます。オススメです。

We only bought the entrance tickets and drove ourselves to the Polynesian Center. The journey there was also a wonderful experience—we really enjoyed the views and the local residents. The center was very beautiful, and there were also lovely stalls where you could buy souvenirs. The staff was very hospitable. We enjoyed the many presentations from different islands. We enjoyed the welcome show. The final show was amazing, as was the buffet. Our compliments!
Let me know if you’d like any adjustments!

I made a reservation to make my 78-year-old father happy! The buffet offers delicious food, and you can take as much as you can eat. The hula dance includes lessons, so everyone can participate without feeling nervous. A lovely lady playing the ukulele went around the tables singing requested songs, which was truly heartwarming! My father, who is dealing with sciatica and taking painkillers in Hawaii, had the biggest smile in a photo with the nostalgic Elvis Presley! Not only is there Old Hawaii, but the show also features Moana's hula dance. The fire dance in the VIP section is incredibly powerful!

78歳の父に喜んでほしくて予約しました！ビュッフェも美味しく食べれる量だけとれますし、フラダンスはレッスン付きでみんな一緒に緊張しないで参加できます♪
ウクレレ弾きのおばさまがテーブルを回りリクエスト曲を歌って下さり感無量になりました！
坐骨神経痛の中、ハワイで痛み止めを飲みながら過ごしている父が..懐かしのプレスリーさんとのお写真に最高の笑顔でした！
オールドハワイだけでなく、ショーにはモアナちゃんのフラダンスもあります♪ファイヤーダンスはVIP席、大迫力です！

As soon as we arrived we notified several members of the serving staff that we were missing our bottle of champagne that we ordered. However bottled chilled champagne was out already at other tables for guests who hadn’t arrived. The staff kept saying they were working on the problem, however it took over an hour into our cruise when they came out with 2 chilled bottles of champagne for two other couples who arrived 18 & 24 mins after we were seated!! They finally brought us a warm bottle of champagne even though we arrived before the other 2 couples. When we complained about the warm bottle of champagne the staff didn’t seem to know what to do. They took the warm bottle away and the champagne glasses they had poured. We asked why they gave the other couples chilled bottles and served them before us even though we boarded and were seated before them. The staff apologized but had no excuse! Finally a hour and 40 mins into the cruise the server comes out without with the same bottle they had taken away earlier. So they had put it into the fridge and now we are short champagne because they thrown out the warm champagne they had poured earlier. And to make things worse they brought us some empty dirty champagne glasses which they claim were ours from
earlier!!! They said they stuck our glasses into the fridge to cool them after they tossed out the warm champagne that was in them ! We demanded clean glasses and a full bottle of chilled. After another 18 minutes we FINALLY received our bottle of chilled champagne that should have been waiting for us when we boarded the ship! This just put a damper on the whole cruise. We literally had to quickly drink the champagne because we were returning to port soon after finally receiving our champagne. Couples had to share 1 lobster cracker ! That’s like sharing a knife or a fork! Unacceptable for the cost!
