All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

We had an awesome time and we'll be back next year.

I participated with a friend. It was a pleasant cruise that really made me feel like I was in Hawaii. There were no staff members who spoke Japanese, but they would greet us using the Japanese words they knew. The music, the refreshing evening sea breeze, and the sunset created a luxurious experience.

友人と2人で参加しました。ハワイに来たなぁって感じがする気持ちいいクルーズでした。日本語が話せるスタッフはいませんが、知ってる日本語の単語で声をかけてくれたりします。音楽と夕方の気持ちよい海風とサンセットは贅沢な時間でした。

I participated with my elderly mother. Our guide, Miho, was very attentive and taught us many things. Thanks to her insights about not only Hawaiian culture and history but also the flowers and trees in the courtyard, I feel like we enjoyed our trip many times more! It was my mother's first experience with hula dancing, and the teacher was wonderful and friendly, which made my mother very happy.

年老いた母と二人で参加しました。ガイドのミホさんはとても丁寧に色々な事を教えてくださいました。ハワイの文化や歴史以外にも中庭の花や木など教えて頂いたおかげで旅行が何倍も楽しめた気がします！母にとって初めてのフラダンス体験でしたが、先生も素敵で気さくな方で母も喜んでいました。

Overall it was a fun activity. Clean boat, good drinks, friendly staff, etc. However it was a bit presumptuous on their part to require your picture be taken for an upsell opportunity before you could board the boat. They had all the guests lined up for pictures like grade school photo day. Cheesy! Then of course after the cruise came the sales pitch the second you stepped back on shore. I was literally chased down the beach....LOL. Well it is the 21st century now, so many of us just used our smart phones instead at no additional cost. Other than this odd irritation I had an enjoyable cruise. Thank you.

From the description and images, I imagined a course meal to be enjoyed at a table, but when I actually participated, it was a buffet style, with dining taking place somewhere on the ship. The fireworks were not viewed up close, but rather from a distance; however, I think the viewing points were not bad. It was also nice that the deck was open, allowing us to sit wherever we liked.

写真の画像、説明文から、コース料理、テーブルで食べるイメージをしていましたが、
実際に参加してみると、バイキング形式、船のどこかで食べるといったスタイルでした。
花火も間近での鑑賞ではなく、遠くで見る感じでしたが、鑑賞ポイントは悪くないと思います。
デッキも自由だったので、好きなところにすわれたのは良かったと思います。

The Rock-a-Hula Show was fun!! I thought it would just be an impersonation, but the quality was very high and I was satisfied. The food was described as delicious, so I had high expectations, but it felt like what you might find on a typical tour. It might be nice to have partitioned plates. The hula was just okay.

ロックアフラショーは、楽しかったです!!
ただのモノマネかと思っていましたが、とてもクオリティも高く満足でした。
ごはんは、美味しいと書いてあったので期待しすぎてしまいましたがツアーによくありそうな感じでした。仕切りのお皿があるといいかもしれないです。
フラは、普通かなー。

My husband had a great time during the Fireworks cruise. Even though it felt like a lot of people were on board, everyone had a great vantage point for the fireworks show. Afterwards, we enjoyed boating, the views, and unlimited maitais (as well as other alcoholic drinks). The crew was friendly and check in on us, check in/check out was easy, but I would recommend bringing a light sweater because it does get chilly at night!

This is my third time in Hawaii, and I attended the show on the last night. This was my first time seeing the show, and the impersonator of Celine Dion had a wonderful singing voice. In particular, the segment about Elvis reminded me of watching the live broadcast in Honolulu on TV when I was in middle school, and it was very moving. This show is not just an impersonator show; it can be enjoyed as an entertainment show, and I believe it is worth attending at least once.

ハワイは３回目ですが，最後の日の夜に参加しました。
このショーは初めてですが，
セリーヌ・ディオンのそっくりさんの歌声は大変よかったです。
特にエルビスについては，過去のホノルルでの生中継を中学生
の時にテレビで見た記憶が思い出され，大変感動しました。
今回のショーは，単なるそっくりさんのショーでは無く，エン
ターテイメントのショーとして楽しめるものであり，一度は参
加する価値はあると思います。

On our last night in Hawaii, we wanted to experience the essence of Hawaii, so we went to see a dance show. The seating for the buffet meal and the show varies between deluxe and standard, but final confirmation is done on the bus that day, so if you change your mind, you can switch from standard to deluxe (but you might not be able to change from deluxe to standard). The food was delicious, and the dance show was truly spectacular. I was really tired and thought I might doze off at some point, but I enjoyed it from start to finish. Being close to the performers allowed us to see their expressions clearly, which was really interesting! Those who booked deluxe get free ice cream during the show's intermission (it's exchanged for a ticket, so if you don't want it, you can skip it), but the buffet fills you up quite a bit, and the ice cream is quite large since it's in overseas sizes, so we couldn't eat it (laughs). It's a tour that makes you want to go again.

ハワイ最後の夜は、ハワイらしさを感じたくてダンスショー見に行きました。
デラックスとスタンダードで、バイキングの料理とショーの席が変わってきますが、当日バスの中で最終確認されるので、気が変わったらスタンダードで申し込んでいたとしてもそこでデラックスに変更できます（デラックスからスタンダードには変更できないかも）。ごはんもおいしかったし、なんといっても、ダンスショーはほんとに圧巻でした。すごく疲れてたので、途中寝ちゃうかなーとか思ってたけど、最初から最後までずっと楽しめました。近くで見れて、ダンサーの表情とかもしっかりわかって、すごくおもしろかった！デラックスで申し込んだ人は、ショーの休憩中に無料でアイスがもらえますが（チケットと引き換えなので、いらない人は食べないこともできます）、バイキングでかなりお腹いっぱいになるし、アイスも海外サイズなのでかなり大きいので、わたしたちは食べられませんでした(笑)また行きたくなるツアーです。

Should be adults only since it is open bar, but it is amazing. A must do activity.

I participated to see the fireworks. The last time I joined, it was a daytime cruise, but this time it was my first night cruise. The atmosphere was completely different, and I really enjoyed it. The fireworks viewed from the boat were amazing, and I also enjoyed a delicious Mai Tai! It seemed like we took a route that we didn't go on during the daytime cruise, going all the way to Ala Moana and the harbor side, which allowed us to see a wonderful atmosphere that we usually don't get to experience.

花火を見るために参加しました。
以前参加した時は、昼間のクルーズだったのですが、今回は初めての夜のクルーズ。全く雰囲気も違うし、楽しめました。
船から見る花火は最高で、マイタイも美味しく頂きました！昼間のクルーズでは行かないルートを通ったのか、アラモアナ、ハーバー側にまで行ってくれて、普段見れない雰囲気も見ることができてステキでした。

It was planned as a surprise for my mother and my it was a succsess!!!! The person, Alfred, who greeted us was really heartwarming and helpful. I am so grateful for having decided to do this and for having met Alfred. Many thanks and hugs and kisses to Alfred

This time, we had a plan for an evening show and dinner, but next time I want to spend a whole day exploring the Polynesian Cultural Center. The seats for the show were also towards the front, so we could feel the power of the flames up close.

今回は夜のショーとお食事のプランでしたが、今度行くときには一日かけてポリネシアン文化センターを見たいと思いました。
ショーの席も前のほうだったので、炎の迫力を間近で感じられました。

We would like to thank the staff of veltra for their outstanding services with helping making our dream vacation a reality, we really enjoyed the Dinner Cruise - the staff on the boat were perfect, dinner was delicious, show was very enjoyable!

Thanks Again

Fun way to spend a friday evening. Great sailing experience. Met some other friendly travellers. The drinks were certainly flowing! If I were to do it again I would have 2 shakers, instead of 3!!

The show was funny and entertaining. The pre-games were fun. We even got a special dance since it was our honeymoon.. 2nd day. The drinks could have been better..the bartender was a bit sloppy..just stick to the mai tais

The all-you-can-drink option is great, and the crew is friendly. The space is a bit cramped, but there is a restroom available. However, it can be slightly visible from outside, so it's better for women to take care of that before boarding.

飲み放題もついいてクルーも気さくで少し狭いですがトイレもついていていますが外から若干見えてしまいますので女性の方は乗る前に済ましておいた方が良いです

It was a great night out with my best friend. Phillipe and Dave were both great and the view was amazing.

The show was great!!! Michael Jackson..was on point... I would definitely recommend this show and watch it again.

I participated in this tour for my honeymoon. The first restaurant we were taken to served the most delicious food I had in Hawaii. Perhaps because I hadn't eaten anything great until then, the roast beef was perfectly fatty and tasty. After filling up, we headed to the dance show! The dancers, muscular men using their bodies as instruments and shouting, were manly and cool. The ice cream that came out midway was too much in volume, but I managed to finish it. I wish the portion had been smaller and the ice cream a bit tastier, haha. Anyway, it was a wonderful memory and experience to see the traditional Polynesian dance. This time we had to leave in the evening due to time constraints, but since the Polynesian Cultural Center is large, I want to take my time exploring it more on my next visit.

新婚旅行でこのツアーに参加しました。まず最初に連れて行かれたレストランの料理はハワイに来て一番美味しい料理でした。それまで大したもの食べてなかったからか笑ローストビーフも脂がほどよくのっており、美味しかったです。お腹いっぱいの中いざダンスショーへ！ダンスは筋骨隆々の男陣が自分の体を楽器にし、叫ぶ姿は男らしくかっこよかったです。途中ででてきたアイスはボリュームがありすぎましたが、なんとか完食しました。量を少なくしてもう少し美味しいアイスがよかった笑とにかくポリネシアの伝統ダンスを見れてとてもいい思い出と経験になりました。今回は時間がなかったので夕方発でしたが、ポリネシア文化センターは広いので次回来た時はもっとゆっくり散策したいと思います。

The experience was fun, the catamaran is nice with plenty of seating & standing room. Some drinks at the bar, you just cruise out, watch the fireworks & cruise back. The kids had a great time but I think it's definitely better for adults without kids. Fireworks go for about 5 mins.

I wanted to see the fireworks from the seaside on Friday, so I participated. The ship was fully booked, and the buffet guests and lobster dinner guests were on the same floor. Buffet guests could quickly grab their food and leave, but those having the lobster dinner had to wait for their meals to be served, which took quite a bit of time.

The ship isn't that large, so even without a window seat, there was plenty of opportunity to see the outside scenery, which was nice. I was told that the window seats were fully booked, so I couldn't request one, but I was lucky enough to have a window seat.

When asked if I would go again, I think I would prefer to go to a restaurant at the Hilton to watch the fireworks instead. I think once is enough for me.

海側から金曜日の花火が見たいと思い、参加しました。船内は満席で、ビュッフェの人とロブスターディナーの人が同じフロアでした。
ビュッフェの人は早く取って、食べて出ていけるのですが、ロブスターディナーの人は料理が運ばれてくるのを待つしかなく・・・結構、時間がかかります。
船はそれほど大きくないので、無理して窓側指定しなくても十分、外の景色が見えて、良い感じでした。うちは窓側が満席ですと言われて指定できなかったんですが、運良く窓側の席でした。
次また行くかと言われると、ヒルトンのレストランに行って、花火を見る方がいいかなと思っています。
1回行けば満足かなと思います。

Got a second email to do a review !! Lmao had a great time would totally do it again

The cruise was very nice. On time arrival. Great seating. Amazing bartender!! captain dave was a fun!! Really enjoyed the take home cups!!

It was so beautiful when the fireworks started on the water.We had a great time on boat.

FANTASTIC!!!It was so nice when arriving and she was there greeting us.

This was for my oldest sister when she arrived to meet up with our other sister who is working in Hawaii for two weeks.
I had gotten this lei greeting when I visited and it made me fall in love with the islands.
I wanted to share it with her too. The smile on her face in the picture I was sent was magical. The happiest smile I've seen on her in 20 years.
Mahalo for granting her that happiness.

I had high expectations, so I was left with a somewhat disappointing impression. However, I recommend it for those who have seen regular Hawaiian shows several times and want to experience a slightly different atmosphere. Even from the second-floor seats, you could see everything up close with the naked eye!

あまりにも期待しすぎていたのでイマイチな印象でしたが、普通のハワイアンショーを何度か見ていてちょっと違った雰囲気を味わいたい方にはオススメです。２階席でも十分肉眼で見ることの出来る近さでした！

My wife and I went for our anniversary and loved every minute of it. It's great to get out on the water in the beautiful Hawaiian sunset. The crew was very inviting and polite and friendly. The food was great and the drinks as well. Will be coming back to experience it again on Friday so we can see the fireworks as well!

This time, Celine was there. It was so wonderful that I was moved to tears. Michael was smaller than the person who appeared last time. The quality is high, but unlike the impersonators in Japan, the scale is different. It was moving.

今回はセリーヌがいました。とてもすばらしくて感動して涙が出ました。マイケルは前回出ていた方より小柄になってました。クオリティーは高いですが。
日本のそっくりさんと違ってスケールが違います。感動です。
