All Reviews for Food & Dining Experiences

I thought we could definitely go by ourselves, but while climbing, it was great to learn about the names of plants and hear stories about birds.
Finally, having lunch in Kapiolani Park was nice and open.
I heard that there hadn't been much water in the waterfall for the past two weeks, but when we went, thanks to some rain a little earlier, there was water flowing. We were lucky.

きっと自分達だけでも行けるのだと思いましたが、登っていく間に、植物の名前を教えてもらえたり、鳥の話をしてもらえたり、とってもよかったです。
最後にカピオラニ公園でのランチもオープンな感じでよかったです。
ここ２週間くらい滝の水がほとんどなかったそうですが、私たちが行った時は、少し前の雨のおかげで、水が流れていました。ラッキーでした。

Very cool to see and hear about all the history of the PCC. This is me and my wife's first time going to the PCC and Hawaii and let's just say that this is a must! Loved every second of it! Will be back again!

It was absolutely wonderful. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was great. The Tantalus package was also a fantastic deal. I highly recommend it.

最高によかったです。おいしく、雰囲気もよいです。タンタラスもセットで非常にお得でした。おすすめいたします。

Horseback riding in Hawaii. There are various options, but this was the only place I found that allows small children to ride, so I made a request. I thought it would be a short experience, more like a child's play (laughs), but to my surprise... we got to ride on a big, adorable horse and explore the mountain trails!

It was a unique experience that you can't have in Japan, and I really enjoyed it. My 2-year-old daughter fell asleep, so her dad rode instead. I had only made a reservation for my grandchild, but they easily accommodated changing it to one adult for my grandchild and adding another adult.

Next time, we plan to go on a trip with just the grandparents, and I want to go horseback riding at Turtle Bay, where we went for our honeymoon (laughs). It will be next New Year's, so I hope to see you then!

ハワイで乗馬。色々有るけど小さな子供の乗れる乗馬はここしか見つからず、お願いしました。時間も短いし、子供騙し(笑)的な感じで乗るんだろうなぁ～と思いきや……
本格的に大きな可愛いお馬に乗れて、山道散策！
日本では、味わえない経験が出来て、とても楽しめました。2歳の女の子は寝てしまってパパが代わりに乗れました。孫だけの予約をしていたのですが、あちらで、孫1人大人に変更と、大人1人追加も簡単に対応していただきました。
次回は、じぃじ&ばぁばの2人旅の予定なので、新婚旅行で行った(笑)タートルベイの乗馬に行きたいなぁ‼って言ってます。来年のお正月になりますが、その時もヨロシクお願いします。

This is my fourth time. No matter how many times I go, the dinner price, including tips and service charges, offers excellent value for money. I will definitely use it again when I go to Honolulu. I'll also recommend it to everyone.

今回で４回目。
何度行ってもチップ、サービス料込でのこのディナー料金はコスパ抜群です。
またホノルルに行ったときには使わせてもらいましょう。
みなさんにも紹介しておきます。

The staff were very energetic, and although I participated alone, I had a great time. I hesitated to join the snorkeling time because it was a bit cold, but I decided to go for it, and it was the right choice! I was able to capture a sea turtle swimming right below me on camera! It might be good to have marine shoes for snorkeling. It can be a bit painful on your feet if you're barefoot from the sandbar to the snorkeling point.

スタッフさんたちもとても元気で、１人で参加しましたがとても楽しめました。シュノーケリングタイムはちょっと寒くてやめようか迷いましたが、思いきって参加して正解❗自分の真下を泳ぐ海亀をカメラにおさめることが出来ました❗ シュノーケリングはマリンシューズがあるといいかもしれません。サンドバーからシュノーケリングのポイントまで、裸足だとちょっと足が痛いです。

This was my second time at Sandbar, and the weather was great this time! The water was perfect, and we had so much fun playing beach volleyball together! After that, we went snorkeling at a coral reef while searching for sea turtles! We were able to spot a honu and saw so many fish; I couldn't be more satisfied! The hamburgers for lunch were also very filling and delicious! I definitely want to join again next time :)

サンドバーは2回目でしたか、今回は天気も良く最高でした！！水面は股下からいで、みんなで楽しくビーチバレーもできてめっちゃ楽しかったです！そのあとはウミガメを探しながらシュノーケリングのできるサンゴ礁へ！ホヌも見つけられて、魚もたくさん見れて満足しかないです！ランチのハンバーガーもボリュームたっぷりでとても美味しかったです！また次回も参加したいです:）

The trip was fabulous! The crew is friendly, fun and knowledgeable. They keep you informed, entertained and fed (I liked the burger, chips and fruit). The equipment & boat were in excellent shape.

There isn't a lot of down time which I appreciated (activities/entertainment happening thru out the trip). Tyler was an amazing hula dancer! Make sure you bring cash to tip the crew, they work hard to show us tourists a great time!!

When we initially jumped in the water, we saw dolphins immediately! The second jump we saw more dolphins, a sting ray, and a sea turtle! (And fish, if course). It was amazing.

We didn't rent the wet suit and we were fine (mid April). We took Dramamine because of all the warnings in other reviews, so we had no motion sickness, but neither did anyone else. :)

My only advice would be that guests should be sure to sit under the covered area when the crew is making announcements. We were sitting at the very back of the boat (behind the speaker) and couldn't hear them at all. You'll also get a better view of the dancer.

Also, the slide was not available on our trip, so if that's important to you, you should double check?

This event was outstanding - an excellent way to see so many of the major sites on the island and experience all the Polynesian Cultural Center has to offer. The tour guide was exceptional- providing a lot of interesting information about the various places we visited. Our stops were just the right amount of time to allow us to take pictures and explore a little. My personal favorite was Hanauma Bay - such a beautiful view. The Polynesian Cultural Center is a must see when you visit the island - such interesting and lesser known facts about the history of the Center - and an outstanding luau and show.

The food was very good. You get about 30 mins between the food and show to go to the top and see the sunset. Good spot for pictures. Then you come back down for dessert and a show, the show was okay. After that they have dancing you dont have to participate if you do not want to. You can pay for additional drinks.

Above all, the beauty of Kailua Beach is beyond words. It is incredibly clear and beautiful. My first kayaking experience was very exciting and fun. Our Japanese guide, Tomo, was bright and kind, sharing stories about the island's formation and culture, which made for an enjoyable time.

Seeing a sea turtle for the first time and snorkeling at Lanikai Beach during the afternoon free time, where I saw many fish, were both wonderful experiences.

I highly recommend this for anyone who loves nature experiences and being active.

何よりもカイルアビーチの美しさは筆舌に尽くしがたいです。あまりにも透明で、きれいです。そして、初カヤック体験、とてもエキサイティングで楽しかったです。日本語ガイドのトモさんが、明るく親切で、島の成り立ちや文化の話も教えてくれて、楽しい時間を過ごせました。
ウミガメをはじめて見られたこと、午後のフリータイムのラニカイビーチのシュノーケリングで多くの魚を見られたこと、どれも素晴らしい体験でした。
自然体験が好きで、体を動かすことが好きな人にはぜひオススメです。

From the greeters to the servers to the Chief himself, everyone treated us like we were a part of the family. It felt like a big family reunion.
The food was delicious, and even if you're vegetarian or vegan like me, there are plenty of options! I had a mountain of food on my plate and didn't leave hungry.
The entertainment was my favorite part. Talented hula and warrior dancers performed traditional dances from various regions of Polynesia. So it was both entertaining and educational. I highly recommend this luau!

I signed up for a course that included lunch. The morning pickup was smooth, and we arrived at the port without any issues. Since my friend's family, who happened to be on the same schedule, signed up separately, I was prepared for the boat to leave without us, but to my surprise, we ended up on the same boat! They gathered a group of Japanese guests on one vessel. Our guide was also Japanese and very kind. The lunch was plentiful, and we were completely full. We were able to see the honu (sea turtles) perfectly from the sandbar, and at the snorkeling point, we fulfilled our dream of swimming with them, which left the kids in awe. I am grateful for the happy time we spent, being able to see the honu right until the very end.

ランチ付きコースに申込みました。朝のピックアップもスムーズで問題なく港に到着しました。たまたま同日程だった友人家族と別々に申込んだので船は離れることを覚悟していましたが何と同じ船に乗ることに(^^)一隻を日本人客で集めていました(^ ^)ガイドさんも日本人でとても親切です。ランチも盛りだくさんで満腹になります。お目当てのホヌ(海ガメ)もサンドバーからバッチリ見れて、シュノーケリングポイントでは一緒に泳ぐ夢が叶い子供達も感動していました(o^^o)最後の最後までホヌも見れて幸せな時間を過ごせたことに感謝しています。

Two filming locations
It was a plan for tasting and lunch!
We were able to see everything at the two filming locations,
and I recommend visiting these two spots for fans of Jurassic World!
The first and second guides spoke Japanese, so I could understand the content well,
but the last tour was in English, so I didn't understand anything at all! (laughs)
The lunch was quite junky! (laughs)
Since we drove through the forest,
the dust was really something! (^^;)
After the tour ended,
when I wiped my face, it was completely black! (laughs)
I think this tour is recommended for movie lovers!

ロケ地巡り2箇所

まったくわかりませんでした！笑
昼食のランチはジャンキーな感じです！笑
森の中を走行するので
とにかく土埃がすごいです(^^;)
ツアー終了後
顔を拭いたら真っ黒でした！笑
映画好きの方にはお勧めなツアーかと
思います！

This time, I went on a three-generation cruise with my children and mother. At the sandbar, we all had a great time playing beach volleyball and swimming. During the snorkeling afterward, my mother, who is in her late sixties, also joined everyone in the sea and had fun. She was moved to see a sea turtle up close. The hamburgers for lunch were delicious as well. However, the best part of this tour was the personality of the guide. Their desire to entertain everyone was evident, and they made sure no one was left behind. It was a truly wonderful guide.

今回子供と母を連れての三世代クルーズでした。
サンドバーではみんなでビーチバレーをしたり泳いだり楽しい時間を
すごせました。
その後のシュノーケリングでも
６０歳後半の母も皆と同じに海に入り楽しんでました。
ウミガメを間近で見て感動していました。
ランチのハンバーガーも美味しかったです。
ですがこのツアーの最高なところはガイドの方の人柄ですね。
皆を楽しませたいという気持ちが前面に出ていて
誰も置いてきぼりにしない、とてもすばらしいガイドでした。

I made a reservation for my mother, who loves hula. The weather was favorable in early April, and it was comfortable at first, but as the sun went down, it became chilly, and I regretted not bringing a jacket. The show was of high quality, and I was satisfied to be able to show her authentic hula. This time, I chose the Golden Seat, but since we arrived late, we ended up with seats on the edge, which was disappointing. Next time, I definitely want to reserve the Diamond Seat and see it up close.

今回フラの好きな母のために予約しました。
４月上旬天候にめぐまれ最初快適でしたが、日が落ちると
やはり肌寒く上着を持参すればと後悔しました。
ショーは完成度が高く、本場のフラを見せてあげることができて
満足しました。今回はゴールデンシートにしましたが遅めに到着したため
端の席になり残念でした。次回はぜひダイヤモンドシートで予約し
間近で見たいと思います。

I participated with my husband, who is prone to seasickness, but I was relieved that he didn't get sick at all. Depending on the season, after snorkeling, wet hair and a wet body can feel a bit cold with even a slight breeze. If possible, it might be better to bring all your underwear and clothes rather than just something to throw over your wet swimsuit. I finished snorkeling early and changed using a towel from the pool in the less crowded area of the boat.

船酔いしやすい主人と2人で参加しましたが、全く酔わなかったので安心しました。
時期的な問題なのか、シュノーケルの後の濡れた髪濡れた体は少し風が当たると寒いです。
出来れば、濡れた水着の上に羽織るものよりも全ての下着、洋服を持参で臨んだ方が良いかも。私はシュノーケルを早めに引きあげて人の少ない船内でプールで使用するタオルを使って着替えました

This was my second time participating in the dolphin tour, and during the last one in summer, I saw many more dolphins! It was also quite cold, as everyone had to rent wetsuits! There were quite a few people who looked uncomfortable because they got seasick.

However, this time we were able to see many honu (turtles) down below. The staff worked hard to keep everyone engaged and excited. It's a fun tour if you don't get seasick, so taking motion sickness medication is a must!

イルカツアーの参加は2回目で前回は夏でしたが、夏の方がたくさんのイルカが見られました！あとは全員の方がウェットスーツを借りていたくらい寒かったです！酔ってしまって終始辛そうな方も結構な人数いました。
ただ今回は下の方でしたがホヌ（亀）がたくさん見ることができました。
スタッフの方はみなさん盛り上げようと頑張っておられました。
酔わなければ楽しめるツアーなので、酔い止めは必須です！！

We had a blast with Captain Bob’s crew! Kaneohe sandbar is spectacular, a must do activity on Oahu. The picnic was well organized, great food, amazing crew and plenty of time to relax on the sandbar, they helped us in taking our pictures and also plenty of time snorkeling. Clean snorkel equipment, bathrooms onboard and the crew was very helpful to everyone! We loved the sandbar, saw lot of turtles and fishes....it is a once in a lifetime experience! Will definitely do this again if we return to Oahu! Highly recommend this! Shoutout to Captain Bob’s crew!! You guys are awesome!

This luau show was a bit different from what I've seen before, and as expected from Hilton, it was great! I had a very good seat in the front center. However, since the venue is relatively small, I think the experience would still be quite impressive from any front row seat, not just the center ones.

今まで見たのとは少し違うアレンジされたルアウショーでさすがヒルトン！！
前方中央席でとても良かったです。
ただ、会場が割と狭いので中央席じゃなくても前方席なら迫力も対して変わらないかなと思いました。

I was able to see sea turtles three times! I was so moved to see them up close, especially since I can't swim. It was super lucky to see them so closely.

The hamburger I had on the boat was delicious.

The friendly staff assisted us with beach volleyball, and even though I wasn't very good, I had a great time.

It got cold at the end, but I was glad there were hot drinks available. They were delicious.

ウミガメ3回も見れました！
泳げない私が、間近でウミガメを見れて感動しました。間近で見れたのは、めちゃラッキーでした。

船上で食べたハンバーガーが美味しかったです。

ビーチバレーも気さくなスタッフさんがアシストしてくださり、下手くそでも楽しめました。

最後に冷えて寒かったのですが、ホットドリンクが用意されてて良かったです。美味しかったです。

I have been to Hawaii over 30 times, but this was my first visit to Manoa Falls. I had heard various experiences from others and was prepared for the frequent rain, muddy paths, and insect bites, but since the weather was clear, it turned out to be a wonderful hike. The tour guide was very kind, and her explanations about the plants and birds were easy to understand and enjoyable. I also had a very delicious lunch at Kapiolani Park. Thank you very much.

ハワイへは30回以上来ていますが、マノアの滝には初めて行きました。
色々な体験談や現地の方に雨がよく降る、ぬかるんでいて危ない、虫に刺される、などかなり気構えて行きましたが、晴天続きだった事もあり、とても良いハイキングでした。
ツアコンのお姉さんもとても親切で、植物や鳥などの説明も分かりやすく楽しかったです。
カピオラニ公園でのランチもとても美味しくいただきました。ありがとうございました。

Blessed with clear skies, the nature and waterfall views in Oahu were amazing. Moving to a nearby park in Waikiki, the taste of the organic lunch I had while looking at the ocean was exceptional.

晴天に恵まれて、オアフの自然と滝景色も最高。場所を移して、ワイキキ近隣の公園で海を見ながら食べたオーガニックランチの味も格別でした。

This is my second time. I became a repeat visitor just to see Michael. The Polynesian show is also very impressive. It has become one of my favorite activities in Waikiki.

今回で二回目です。マイケル観たさにリピーターになってしまいました。ポリネシアンショーも見応え十分です。ワイキキでの楽しみの一つになりました。

The walk on the sandbar lasted about an hour. There was a sandbank offshore, and the scenery was very beautiful. After that, we explored for sea turtles, and we were able to see them three times! It seems that if you make a wish, it will come true. Then we had BBQ hamburgers, which were quite tasty. Finally, we went snorkeling. We circled around the coral reef, but I was really tired afterward. As noted in the tour guidelines, be sure to bring a hat, sunscreen, and clothing. It gets really cold after entering the water, and the wind is chilly. It’s a good idea to bring warm clothing. I want to go again next year.

サンドバーの散歩は１時間くらいありました。沖合いに砂洲があり景色がとても良かったです。その後ウミガメを散策、なんと３度も見ることができました。お願い事すると叶うらしい。（？）。そしてＢＢＱハンバーガー。普通に美味しかったです。最後にシュノーケリング。さんご礁の周りをぐるっと一周しましたが、さすがに疲れました。ツアーの注意点にもありますが、帽子、日焼け止め、服。特に海に入った後はすごく寒いです。風が冷たいです。厚手の服を持っていったらよいです。来年もまた行きたいです。

Both the hula performance and the entertainment were of a high level, so my family was satisfied. Michael Jackson had quite an impact. Presley also had a great atmosphere and was very enthusiastic in his service.

フラも演奏もエンタテインメントもレベルが高いので、家族も満足していました。マイケルジャクソンはかなりインパクトがありました。プレスリーも雰囲気が出ていたし、サービス精神旺盛でした。

The weather was wonderful, making it a perfect day. I was torn between a dinner cruise and a luau show, but choosing the luau show was definitely the right decision. There were families present, so I felt comfortable enjoying it! The dynamic fire show and the beautiful hula were both fantastic. I even got to participate in the show with the dancers... The buffet-style meal, where you can choose what you like, was also great. Everyone who participated was very happy, and I was extremely satisfied!

お天気にも恵まれ、最高の日になりました。
ディナークルーズかルアウショーか迷いましたが
ルアウッショーを選んで大正解でした。
家族連れの方もいたので安心して楽しめました！
ダイナミックなファイアーショー、
しっとりとしたフラもあり、とても素敵でした。
ダンサーさんに連れられてショーにも参加したり。。。
食事もブッフェでお好みで選べるのも良いです。
参加者全員がとても喜んでくれて超満足です！

Everything was fantastic from beginning to end. The people, the experience, the venue. I would highly recommend.

This is a must do experience if one wants to know more about the Polynesian Culture!

My friends and I got the Ambassador package and was extremely amazed with how all the performers, guides and crew were doing everything with so much heart and passion! There is no lying on how one consistently feels so intrigued with learning about another culture.

Despite this being a manicured and curated tourist attraction with a make-believe setting, it doesn't disappoint. Being called "family" all the time does make the entire experience different.

The Luau night show is not be be missed! The show is called Hai and is so well done that I personally want to experience it again!

Overall, there is nothing much to fault. Also note that tickets purchased and not single entry! You can go back again on another day to continue your tour if you have missed out on certain experiences.

Thumbs up!

I took my two daughters on a graduation trip for their university, and we had our first experience here. Our driver, Tomo, and our guide, Masa, were both very kind to us. We learned a lot about the island's ecosystem and migratory birds, which was information we had never encountered before. Both kayaking and snorkeling were a lot of fun! It was a day where we truly felt the charm of Hawaii. I would love to come back if the opportunity arises. Thank you very much!

娘の大学卒業旅行を兼ねて、娘二人を連れて初めて体験させていただきました。
運転手のトモさん、ガイドしてくださったマサさんお二人共とても親切にしていただきました。島の生態系や渡り鳥の話しなど、今まで知り得ることが出来なかったお話が聞けてとても勉強になりました。カヤックもシュノーケリングもとても楽しかったです❣️ハワイの魅力を肌で感じた一日でした。
また機会があればお世話になりたいと思います。ありがとうございました
