Oahu
Beware! Poor communication and NOT a sunrise tour as stated
This was sold as a sunrise at Diamond Head which turns out NOT ACCURATE AT ALL! Diamond Head doesn’t even open until 6:00 and sunrise was 6:11 that day. By the time the van was parked it was 6:06. So obviously we did not make it to the top or even to a look out point to view the sunrise. We did get some pretty pictures BUT it was not sunrise by far. Even the pick up location was a rough start and poor, poor communication. The instructions to 5:15 a.m pick up were at Hyatt Regency and the address. That’s it, that’s all the information that was given. So, we show up, we’re waiting and waiting then the driver calls and ask if we’re coming. Jon told him we’re here where we standing and he said no they’re on the side of the building. We go to the side of the building, which turns out to be a side road. Which looks like a shady looking road for deliveries and the van is parked behind the dumpster, picture attached. Now image this side street, van parked behind the dumpster at 5:00 a.m in the dark.
After the hike we returned at 7:31. Now pick up was at 7:30 and we did show up 1 minute late at 7:31 and the van was gone. Again, we’re waiting and looking. After a few minutes Jon calls. Thankfully we had the phone number from when he called us that morning or we would’ve had no clue what to do. Turns out THEY HAD LEFT! The driver tells us to wait there that he will turn around to come get us. When I questioned the driver about leaving us he said “Julie told you to be back at 7:30” to which I explained we were back at 7:31 and called you at 7:33. He said I was coming back. I questioned again, “how were we to know that? All we knew was that our tour had left us. You could’ve called like you did this morning but instead you just drove off. “ He was never able to give a reason for just driving off or not even calling. He just kept saying, you were told to be back at 7:30. My advice DO NOT TAKE THIS TOUR WITH THIS
More time, better and safer places for pick up
The sea was very beautiful!! I took a small child with me, and the child had a great time as well. There was plenty of time in the water, and we could play with snorkeling gear and boards until we got tired.
I booked a plan that included lunch, so we enjoyed delicious sandwiches. While on the boat, we enjoyed singing and took in the wonderful ocean views to our heart's content.
とてもきれいな海!!小さな子どもを連れて行ったのですが、子どもも大変楽しんでくれました。たっぷりの水中時間もあって、飽きるまでずっとシューケリングやボードなどを遊べます。
ランチ付きのプランを予約したので、美味しいサンドイッチを頂きました。船では歌を楽しんでいながら外の素敵な海景色を思う存分眺めました。

A special experience. I wouldn't change a thing. Connection with nature and people. Not crowded. Staff helpful Great lunch. The sandbar was my favorite since I am not a snorkeling person. My husband enjoyed the snorkeling experience.
Bring a chance of close for the ride back.
We had such a great time though it was raining and thundering the crew was amazing, the lunch was good and the snorkeling was such a fun time. The hot chocolate such a perfect way to end a cool trip!! Mahalo to the crew!!
The staff were very kind and took great care of me, even though I'm not very good at Japanese.
The atmosphere on the boat was wonderful, and the sea was truly beautiful. I was able to see a lot of fish while snorkeling, and I am very satisfied with that experience.
The banana boat was even more fun than I imagined, and it became a wonderful memory. I definitely want to participate again!
スタッフの方がとても親切で、日本語があまり得意ではない私にも最後まで丁寧に対応してくださいました。
船の雰囲気もとても良く、海も本当にきれいでした。シュノーケリングでは無事にたくさんの魚を見ることができて、とても満足しています。
バナナボートも想像以上に楽しくて、素敵な思い出になりました。ぜひまた参加したいです!

The staff was very kind. I was late for the entry time due to a prior commitment, but when I explained the situation and consulted with them, they responded flexibly, and I was able to participate without any issues.
The performance afterward was truly wonderful, and I had a very enjoyable time. I highly recommend it!
スタッフの方がとても親切でした。
前の予定の関係で入場時間に遅れてしまったのですが、事情を説明して相談したところ、柔軟に対応してくださり、無事に参加することができました。
その後のパフォーマンスも本当に素晴らしく、とても楽しい時間を過ごせました。ぜひおすすめしたいです!
この度は私共のロックアフラにご夫婦でお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。大変素敵な口コミも有難うございました。エンターテインメントもお楽しみ頂けたようでスタッフ一同大変嬉しく思っております。次回もハワイに来られるのであれば又のお越しをお待ちしております。
One of the best experiences I’ve ever had! It happened to storm in the middle of our tour, which made it even better. They offer great tours if you don’t mind the rough terrain and getting dirty. Check them out if you want a sense of adventure!
Wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty or wet in case of inclement weather.
A fantastic representation to this event of the past. An opportunity to pay your respects to those who lost their lives.
So easy to book and well organised.
各国の人が集まり、船上ライブで出航から大盛り上がり!
海は美しく、シュノーケリング・カヤック・SUPボードの体験ができ参加して良かったです。私達は2度目の参加でしたが、次回も参加したいと思います。

We had such a great tour. Our bus driver was outstanding and made the ride fun and informative! Enjoyed learning more about the events in Pearl Harbor, and thoroughly enjoyed touring the Missouri. Highly recommend!
Do the Missouri Battleship tour.
We had a wonderful time. The crew on the catamaran were great. The shuttle bus was very nice. I would definitely recommend this tour to everyone.
Easily booked online. Was contacted about specifics and everything went smoothly.
Amazing trip with fabulous crew , delicious hamburger and good steinlager beer 🌺😁
Arrived at HNL to see someone holding a sign with our names. When we approached we were given the most beautiful Lei’s!!!!
What an incredible surprise and a fantastic welcome honor dream vacation!!!
Great company to deal with! Timely and kept up on notifications. Highly recommended!
We participated with our two children and my husband. Although my English is limited, we were able to communicate and had a great time! The crew members were friendly and cheerful. My daughters, who were initially nervous and scared, ended up having the best smiles and enjoying themselves once we started, and they requested to do it again! We created precious memories during our family trip to Hawaii. After returning to the port, we were able to purchase the photo data, and even though it was a Lightning type for iPhone, the data transfer was smooth, and we received a copy SD card, so we could see the images right away, which was wonderful. Thank you very much!
子供二人と私たち夫婦での参加でした。
英語も片言ですがコミュニケーションできて
楽しかったです!クルーの皆さんも気さくで明るい方たちでした。緊張した面持ちで初めは怖がっていた娘たちも、スタートしたら最高の笑顔で楽しんでおり、またやりたい!とリクエストしていました。家族のハワイ旅行で大切な思い出が増えました。港に帰港後に写真データも購入でき、iPhoneのライトニングタイプですがデータ移行もスムーズでコピーSDカードも貰えてすぐに画像を見れたのも嬉しかったです。ありがとうございました。
Motion sickness medication is essential. As for what to bring, a body towel and a smartphone with a screenshot of the voucher and card information will allow for smooth photo purchases via contactless
酔い止め必須、持ち物はボディタオル程とバウチャー画面スクショしたスマホにカード情報が入っていれば、写真購入もタッチ決済でスムーズに出来ます。ライフジャケットは各自首元や胸が苦しくないよう緩め調整を。
The meals were plentiful and delicious 😊. The shows featuring Elvis, Michael, and the fire performance were all great. I was also happy to take photos with the cast after the show. It became a wonderful memory of my trip to Hawaii.
食事はボリュームたっぷりで美味しかったです😊ショーはエルビス・マイケル・ファイヤーパフォーマンスといずれも良かっです。ショーの後、キャスト達との写真撮影も嬉しかったです。いいハワイ旅行の思い出になりました。
The meals are hearty, so come hungry!
食事がボリュームたっぷりなので空腹でどうぞ!
この度は私共のロックアフラにご夫婦でお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。ルアウブッフェのお食事とエンターテインメントそして、エルビスとマイケルファイヤーダンスも含めてお楽しみ頂き誠に有難うございました。ハワイでの素敵な思い出のお手伝いができた事を大変嬉しく思っております。又のお越しをお待ちしております。
The show lasted about an hour and a half, but during that time, I didn't get bored at all; I thought it was genuinely fun. The food was all-you-can-eat, so there was plenty of it. I think the taste suits Japanese people as well. Japanese guests were in the minority, though...
ショーは、1時間半くらいでしたが、その間飽きたりせず、普通に(純粋に)楽しいと思います。食事は、食べほなので量は十分あります。味も日本人にも合っていると思います。日本人客は、少数派ですね…

Minako, who speaks Japanese, was always by our side as our guide, which made us feel very safe and allowed us to enjoy ourselves! We encountered a pod of dolphins twice, and they came right up close, allowing us to see them well. We also encountered turtles and sharks, making for a very memorable experience! Thank you to Captain Brian, guide Sarah, Koha who resembles Bruno Mars, Peter, and Lucas.
日本語が喋れるミナコさんが常につきっきりでガイドしてくださりとても安心して楽しむことができました!
イルカの群れに2回も遭遇できて目の前まで接近してきてよく見れたし、亀とサメにも遭遇してとても思い出深い体験ができました!船長のブライアンさん、ガイドのサラさん、ブルーノマーズ似のコアさん、ピーターさん、ルーカスさんありがとうございました。
Be careful not to oversleep, and let's go to bed early the night before.
寝坊に気を付けて前日は早く寝ましょう
アロハ! マコトさま。イルカ大学に参加していただき、ありがとうございました。美しいイルカの写真の共有と五つ星評価にも感謝いたします。イルカと2回も一緒に泳げたとは幸運でしたね!! 日本語ガイドのミナコを含め、船長やクルーたちに関する温かいコメントもありがとうございます。ツアーを安心して楽しんでいただいたようで嬉しく思います。ぜひまた、ハワイにいらっしゃる際には遊びに来てくださいね。Mahalo nui and a hui hou!
I attended the Waikiki Luau Hawaiian Show! ✨ Since I had a VIP seat, I was very close to the stage and could see the dancers' powerful performances and expressions clearly, which made me very satisfied. The fire dance was particularly amazing and left the biggest impression on me during the show. The spins and the intensity of the performance exceeded my expectations, and the entire venue was buzzing with excitement.
The buffet didn't have an overwhelming variety, but each dish was delicious, especially the whole roasted pig, which was very tasty.
Additionally, the layout required us to pass between seats to reach the exit, and there were times when people sitting on the aisle were unaware and remained seated comfortably, making it a bit difficult to get through.
Overall, the staff was courteous, and I felt at ease enjoying my first Hawaiian show. Experiencing Hawaiian music and dance up close made for a wonderful time that will be a memorable part of my trip. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to fully enjoy the Hawaiian atmosphere in Waikiki! 🌺
ワイキキルアウ ハワイアンショーに参加してきました!✨
VIP席だったのでステージがとても近く、ダンサーさんの迫力や表情までしっかり見えて大満足でした。特にファイヤーダンスが本当にすごくて、今回のショーで1番印象に残りました🔥 回転やパフォーマンスの迫力が想像以上で、会場全体も大盛り上がりでした。
ビュッフェは品数が多いという感じではないですが、その分ひとつひとつが美味しく、特に丸ごと豚のローストがとても美味しかったです。
また、席と席の間を通らないと出口に出られない構造になっているのですが、通路側にいても気づかずにゆったり座ったままの方もいて、通りづらいタイミングがあったのは少し気になりました。
全体的にはスタッフの対応も丁寧で、初めてのハワイアンショーでも安心して楽しめました。ハワイらしい音楽やダンスを間近で体験できて、旅行の思い出に残る素敵な時間になりました。ワイキキでハワイ気分を満喫したい方におすすめです🌺
Since the aisle seat on the exit side has people coming and going, I think being a little mindful of when to stand up will make your experience more comfortable.
出口側の通路席は人の出入りがあるので、立ち上がるタイミングに少し気をつけるとより快適に楽しめると思います。
この度は私共のロックアフラにご夫婦でお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。VIP 席でのお食事とエンターテインメントもお楽しみ頂きスタッフ一同大変嬉しく思っております。お席の件についてのご意見も有難う御座います。これを機会に常に改善できるよう心がけて行きたいと思っております。次回もハワイでお待ちしております。
It wasn't very large, so I was able to explore it on foot.
There were things I wanted to try that I had caught a glimpse of when I had a guide before. I wanted to get a tattoo (there are different designs in Tahiti and Fiji, and sometimes they are not available when you want to do it later), try out an outrigger canoe (it was a smaller area than I expected), watch the haka at a New Zealand show, go fishing (no one caught anything, but it was still fun), and take photos with the villagers. I was able to do all of that.
I also went to a show in Samoa, and the fire knife performance seemed interesting, so I checked it out. The first 15 minutes inside the building was a talk (it was in English, so I didn't understand much), and then everyone was told to go outside! So, the juggling with fire sticks began in the garden, and it might be better to wait outside instead of rushing to get a good seat inside from the start.
It was peaceful, and everyone was kind; I had a wonderful experience.
However, regarding the video data worth $22.50, even after scanning the QR code I received, it just says "processing." I've inquired about it, but even after more than two weeks, it hasn't been sent, so I'm not sure what it is.
それほど広くないので徒歩で十分見て回れました
以前ガイドさんがついてくれた時にチラ見してやってみたいなと思っていたこと
タトゥー(タヒチとフィジーとで柄に違いがある、やっている時とやっていない時があるので後でやろうと思うとできないことがある)アウトリガーカヌー(思ったより狭い範囲だった)、ニュージーランドのショーでハカを観る、釣り(やっぱり誰も釣れないけど楽しい)、村人たちとの写真撮影 等全部できました
サモアでのショー、ファイヤーナイフも面白そうなので行ってみました
建物の中で前半15分はお話(英語なのであまりわからず)その後みんな外へ出ろ♪
ということで庭で火のついた棒のジャグリングが始まるので急いで最初から建物の中の
いい席を取ろうとしないで外で待っていた方がいいかもしれません
のどかでみんなやさしく、楽しい経験ができました
ただ、22.5ドル相当のビデオデータというのが、いただいたQRコードを読み取っても
只今処理中というばかりで 問い合わせしていますが2週間以上経っても送られてこないのでどういう物なのか不明です
If you ask at the reception, they will provide you with a Japanese pamphlet. For those who are leaving without watching the evening show, it's a good idea to confirm the pickup time and location with
日本語のパンフレットは受付で言うと出してくれます
夜のショーを観ないで帰る人は 行きのバスの運転手さんに迎えの時間と場所を
しっかり確認しておく、迎えが来ないときの連絡先を確認しておくのが良いです
Everyone I met locally was praising it. Since this was my sixth time, including trips to Japan and abroad, I wasn't as moved as others, but considering the weather wasn't great, I still felt it was worth going. I think it would be better to include such fun activities at night, not just hula and fire dancing.
現地で知り合った人達のすべてが、絶賛してました。
私は日本や海外を含めて6度目でしたので、そこまでの感動はありませんでしたが、
天候に恵まれなかったことも含め、行って良かったと思いました。
フラとファイヤーダンスだけで無く、こんな楽しみも夜に入れたほうが良いとは思います
The return trip can get crowded. Although it's a theater within the hotel, if you're staying at a hotel farther away (I was at the Hilton Waikiki), it's smooth to ask the staff outside when you want t
帰りは込み合います。ホテル内の劇場ですが、遠いホテルの方(私はヒルトンワイキキでした)は、タクシー乗りたいときは、外に出たところにいる係員に頼むとスムーズです
There are quite a few ups and downs, and especially the downhill sections can be slippery, so be careful. However, you can work up a nice sweat. The descent is more challenging than Diamond Head due to the steep incline.
結構、UPDOWNがあり、特に下りは滑りやすいので要注意ですが
気持ちの良い汗をかけます。
ダイヤモンドヘッドよりも急こう配なので下りは大変です。
I was helped by the fact that they lent us sticks for free on this tour.
このツアーでは無料でスティックを貸してくれえたので助かりました。
この度はツアーにご参加いただき、また丁寧なレビューをお寄せいただき誠にありがとうございます。
コースはアップダウンが多く、特に下りは滑りやすい箇所もございますが、その中でも「気持ちの良い汗をかけた」とのお言葉を頂戴し、大変嬉しく拝見いたしました。
ダイヤモンドヘッド以上に急こう配を感じられたとのことで、しっかりとしたトレッキングをお楽しみいただけたようで何よりでございます。
また、無料レンタルのスティックがお役に立てたとのこと、安心いたしました。
今後も皆さまに安全かつ快適にご参加いただけるツアー運営に努めてまいります。
またハワイへお越しの際には、ぜひご参加をお待ちしております。
この度は誠にありがとうございました。
マハロ!🌺
It was a very impressive and worthwhile show, just as the reviews said. It's definitely worth seeing at least once. I think the seats in the front and back offer a good view of the whole performance since the venue is quite small. It was completely full, showing how popular it is. I was seated to the side, so my neck got tired.
口コミ通り迫力のある見応えのあるとても良いショーでした。ぜひ一度は見る価値ありますね。前方後ろのほうが全体がよく見えていい席だと思います。会場はこじんまりしているので。満席でした。スゴイ人気なんですね。私は横前だったので首が疲れました。
It's definitely cold, so it's better to have something to wear over your clothes.
やはり寒いので羽織りものはあったほうがいいですね。
Overall, this is an excellent option for anyone wanting an easy, affordable, and meaningful visit to Pearl Harbor.
We got to see plenty of tropical fish and even a sea turtle up close, which was the highlight. As well, the crew was friendly teaching the ropes to the scooters!
Chief’s Luau was an incredible and lively Polynesian cultural experience from start to finish, with the fire knife dancing as the highlight!
The cage was secure and the guides stayed nearby the entire time to ensure everyone was comfortable. We saw several sharks circling which made the experience even more incredible.
Each village offered something unique, with engaging demonstrations, performances, and friendly staff who shared their traditions and stories.
The scenery was just breathtaking, with views of the mountains and valleys used in many films. As well, our guide was friendly sharing interesting facts about the ranch and movie history along the way.
Our guide was engaging and shared interesting behind-the-scenes stories that made the tour. The 90-minute duration as well was perfect to see the highlights without feeling rushed
