All Reviews for Food & Dining Experiences

This was a very fun and educational experience. I learned a lot about the Polynesian islands and their different cultures. I would recommend booking with a tour guide if you would like to see all the villages in one day. The night show finale was the best part. I was pretty exhausted by the end of the day from having so much fun and the long drive there and back. I also recommend setting aside an entire day if you're interested in going to PCC.

First, I went to the reception and showed my voucher. The chubby lady who seemed very American looked at the voucher and laughed mockingly, which was quite unpleasant. Moreover, she just laughed at the voucher without saying anything. As we were upset about her rude attitude, a hula girl came running from the dining area and kindly guided us to our seats.

Since there was no point in staying angry, I decided to change my mood, and soon the whole roasted pig was brought out, and the buffet began. I was quite satisfied with the food and its taste.

After the meal, we moved to the show area, where a Michael Jackson impersonator welcomed us and took a photo with us. I was considering purchasing the photo, but it turned out so poorly that I decided against it.

The impersonator didn't resemble Michael much, and my husband thought it was mediocre, but his singing ability was outstanding, and the dancers' powerful performances and the show's overall composition were very enjoyable for me.

After the show, an Elvis impersonator saw us off. He also took another photo, but the staff's photography skills were quite poor. He was a very tall man, yet he took the photo standing up without bending down, and as expected, the picture made us look like little people.

In any case, the reception lady had a bad attitude, and the staff were not good at taking photos. However, the show itself was enjoyable.

まず受付に行きバウチャーを見せるとザアメリカ人という感じのふっくらしたお姉さんはバウチャーを見てふふと馬鹿にしたように笑ってとても感じが悪かった、しかも何も言わずただバウチャー見て笑うだけで
私達が失礼な態度に憤慨していると
食事会場の方からフラガールが走ってきて笑顔で席に案内してくれました
いつまでも怒っていてもしかたないので気持ちを切り替えると
間もなく豚の丸焼きが運ばれブッフェが始まりました
お料理の内容とお味はなかなか満足できました

食後はショー会場に移動しマイケルジャクソンのソックリさんが出迎えて
くれて一緒に写真をとります
購入を考えていたのですが写真がへたくそ過ぎて購入をやめました

ソックリさんはあまり似ておらず夫には中途半端だと不評でしたが
歌唱力抜群ですしダンサーの方たちの迫力あるダンスとショーとしての
構成等、私はとても楽しめました

ショーが終わると今度はエルビスのソックリさんがお見送りしてくれます
そしてまた写真を撮ってくれるのですが
とにかくスタッフの写真の撮り方が下手でとても背の高い男性だったのですが
かがむ事もなくたったまま撮って案の定上からの写真は私達が小人の様に写っていました

とにかく受付のお姉さんが感じ悪いのとスタッフは写真撮るのが下手です
肝心のショーは楽しめます

It was my first time in Hawaii and my first dinner buffet, but overall the food was mediocre. There were chicken, pork, and beef options, but they had a bit of a gamey taste and didn't meet my expectations. However, while we were eating, there was a hula show and ukulele performance, which was really enjoyable. The subsequent show featured famous songs from various eras, and the sight of many dancers performing in turn with a live band was impressive. The impersonator was quite talented, although I wasn't familiar with the original material, so I still enjoyed it. However, I was a bit tired, so at times it felt a little long and there were moments when I felt sleepy.

はじめてのハワイではじめてのディナービュッフェでしたが、料理は全体的に微妙で
お肉は鳥豚牛がありましたが臭みが多少ある感じで期待ほどではありませんでしたね。
料理を食べながらフラショーやウクレレを弾いてくれていてそれはすごく楽しめました。
その後のショーは時代ごとの名曲などを演奏してくれていたようで、生バンドでたくさんのダンサーの方々が代わる代わる踊る姿は圧巻でした。
モノマネの方は、もとネタがあまりわからずでしたがかなり歌がお上手なので普通に楽しめました。
ただ疲れていたので少し長く感じて眠くなる場面もありました。

I never expected to see Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson in Waikiki, Hawaii (they were impersonators, though). Their singing was so wonderful that I was completely captivated. Among them, the female singer's voice was particularly impressive.

The hula show was powerful, with the female dancers being very graceful and beautiful, while the male dancers were strong and cool. The fire dance added an extra level of excitement.

I was surprised by the whole roasted pig at the buffet dinner before the show, but it was delicious. The other dishes were surprisingly tasty as well, and I was very satisfied.

まさかハワイのワイキキでエルビスプレスリーとマイケルジャクソンが見れるとは思いませんでした。（ソックリさんでしたが）
とても歌声がステキで聴き入ってしまうくらいでした。中でも、女性シンガーの歌声はとても良かったです。
フラショーも迫力があって、女性ダンサーはとてもしなやかで美しく、男性ダンサーは力強くかっこよかったです。ファイヤーダンスは危険度が更に盛り上げけていました。
ショー前のビッフェ式のディナーでは豚の丸焼きには驚きましたが、美味しく頂けました。他の料理も意外に美味しく、大変満足しました。

I visited Hawaii for my honeymoon ♡ I saw reviews saying the show was amazing, so I signed up, and it was definitely the right choice! The show was truly incredible, and I think it's a great deal to enjoy dinner and a show at this price, plus we could take photos together! During dinner, we enjoyed the cheerful Hawaiian music and dance, making for a wonderful dining experience.

The food was buffet-style, so you can take as much as you like, which I think is great, but personally, the taste didn't quite suit me. However, the whole roasted pig was both delicious and visually stunning! I regretted not taking a photo of it, so I recommend everyone else definitely take one. It's not often you get to see a whole roasted pig.

There was something like a hula dance practice where a few people were chosen to dance in front, but I was too shy to participate. I hope to dance with my husband next time we go to Hawaii ♡ Thank you for providing such a wonderful time and creating beautiful memories for our honeymoon! ♡

ハネムーンで訪れたハワイ♡
ショーがすごく良かったと言う口コミを見て申し込みましたが大正解でした！
ショーも本当に凄くてこの値段でディナーとショーが見れて写真まで一緒に撮れるなんて本当にお得なツアーだと思います‼︎
ディナー中もずっとハワイの陽気な音楽にダンスでとても素晴らしいディナータイムを味わえて良かったです。
料理はバイキング式で自分の好きな量を取れるので量は問題ないかと思いますが味は個人的にはあまり合わなかったです。
ですが豚の丸焼きは味も見た目も最高でした！
写真を撮りそびれたのでそこだけが残念でしたが皆さんは必ず撮った方がいいと思うますよ。
なかなか豚の丸焼きをお目にかかる機会はないと思うので。
フラダンスの練習？みたいな感じで何人かが選ばれて前で踊るのですが私は恥ずかしくてできなかったのでまたハワイに行く時には主人と二人で踊りたいと思います♡
ハネムーンの思い出にとても素敵な時間を過ごす事ができありがとうございました♡

This was so much fun, the crew were so great and helpful. They went out of their way to make the night special. The food was the best, nice and fresh outstanding
Thank you
Denise, Kathy and Carol

On the way there, the driver provided a tour guide in English. It's not a big deal, but I learned a lot of things I wouldn't have known if I had been traveling by rental car. It was surprisingly good.

The crew consisted of three women and Captain Bob. One of them could speak Japanese, but even if you're worried about your English, it's not a problem. Everyone was friendly and fun.

The sandbar is just a shallow area offshore, so there's nothing particularly special, but you can practice snorkeling or play beach volleyball. I thought about walking to the end, but there were larger stones (pieces of coral) along the way, and it hurt my feet without sandals. It was also too wide to reach the end.

Next was turtle watching. This time, there were few turtles. However, there were a lot of mantas that came very close to the boat.

While snorkeling, there was a large turtle right nearby. After taking a ton of photos, I circled around the coral reef that spans about 1 km. When I returned to the boat to take a break, I spotted a shark. It seemed to be sleeping, so I dove down and got about a meter close to it.

There were many unexpected discoveries, and it was incredibly fun.

行きのバスではドライバーが英語で観光案内してくれる。大した話ではないがレンタカーで移動していたら知りえないことがいろいろ聞けた。意外とよかった。

船員は女性３名＋キャプテンBOB。日本語ができる方は１名だが英語が心配な方でも問題ない。皆さん気さくで楽しい。

サンドバーは沖合の浅瀬というだけで特段何もないが、シュノーケルの練習やビーチ（？）バレーができる。端まで歩こうと思ったが、途中から大きめの石（サンゴのかけら）が多くなりサンダルがないと足が痛い。そもそも広すぎて端まで行けなかった。

次にタートルウォッチング。今回は亀は少なかった。しかし、マンタが大量にいて船のすぐ近くまで来てくれた。

シュノーケルでは、大きな亀がすぐ近くにいた。写真を撮りまくった後、周囲１Kmあるサンゴ礁をぐるりと一周。船に戻って休憩しよと思ったらサメを発見。寝ているようだったので素潜りで１ｍぐらいまで近づいてみた。

想定外の発見がいろいろあってめちゃくちゃ楽しかった。

We went to this Legends show November 2013 and loved it so much we had to see it again. After a very bountiful dinner buffet with plenty of variety and a traditional Hawaiian luau, you get to watch a fantastic live concert that goes through a journey of Music emphasis on Hawaiian artists. Wonderful tribute artists perform and accompanied by terrific dancing. Then as a bonus a fantastic fire dancer is added to it all. Just great entertainment all round and you could tell the crowd just loved it. Highly recommend this show.

I walked to the venue from a hotel nearby. I was lucky to find an elevator that goes up to the fourth floor, so I didn't get lost. If you have time, it's reassuring to check in advance.

When I showed my voucher at the reception, I was immediately given a sticker that served as my admission ticket, which I had to stick on a visible part of my upper body. Be careful, as it can easily come off if it's on clothing.

When I showed the admission ticket to a girl in a hula costume, she guided me to my table. The seating is usually shared, so you'll be seated next to another group (buffet style). Even newlyweds were seated facing each other.

I had also ordered sparkling wine as an option, so it felt like we received better service compared to the surrounding groups. This naturally increased opportunities for conversation.

You might want to lower your expectations for the food itself. There are plenty of dishes, but they tend to mix everything on the plate.

During the meal, there was hula dancing nearby, creating a cheerful and enjoyable atmosphere.

After the meal, we moved to the concert venue, and the show finally began. The level of hula dancing was impressive and worth watching. The rockstar's show was also very engaging. Overall, it was a high-quality performance.

I recommend it.

会場の近くのホテルから歩いて現地に向かいました。4階までのエレベーターを偶然見つけので迷子にならず良かったです。時間がある場合は、事前の確認があれば安心です。
受付でバウチャーを見せるとすぐに入場券となるシールが渡され、それを上半身の見えやすいところに貼るのですが、衣服だと剥がれやすいので要注意です。
入場券をフラの衣装の女の子に見せるとテーブルに案内してくれます。テーブルは相席が基本なので別グループの横に詰められます。（バイキングコース）新婚さんでも向かい合わせが基本でした。
オプションのスパークリングワインを同時ひ頼んでいたので、周りのグループよりサービスが良かったような感じです。会話の機会がおのずと増えるので。

食事自体はあまり期待しない方がいいかも。
料理はたくさんあるのですが皿の上でミックスしたりするので。

食事中にはすぐ近くでフラダンスがあって陽気に楽しい時間です。

食事が終わると、コンサート会場に移動していよいよショーが始まります。
フラダンスのレベルは高く見応えあります。
また、ロックスターのショーも見応えあります。
総じてレベルの高いショーでした。

おすすめです。

In the morning, when we were picked up, there was a group of Japanese people. I was worried because they couldn't speak English, but the staff kindly explained everything in Japanese, which was a relief. Even the older couple nearing their sixties were fine.

In the sea, we encountered four groups of 20 to 30 dolphins. We only saw sea turtles from a distance, though.

On the boat, the staff entertained us. It was the best experience!

The bus was cold.

朝、ピックアップされたら何と日本人一組。
英語話せないし、どうしようと思っていたら、スタッフの人達が日本語で個人的に親切に説明してくれ、安心安心。還暦前のおじさんおばさんも大丈夫でし
海では、イルカ20～30頭の群れを4群れと会いました。海亀は、遠くから見えただけだけど
船の上では、スタッフ達が楽しませてくれました。
最高でしたよ。

バスの中が寒かった

the staff was awesome, had a great time at the sandbar and snorkeling. this was such a unique experience.

The Japanese guide and all the staff were very cheerful and made the experience enjoyable! However, the weather was bad with rain and wind, and it was very cold, so we couldn't see any beautiful scenery at all... Everyone was shivering... It made me want to go home early. There's nothing we can do about the weather, though. This is part of the nature experience. Towards the end, they served us warm drinks, which was a relief. To be honest, I wish they had served them a bit earlier.

日本のガイドさんもスタッフ皆さんも、とても明るく楽しく盛り上げてくれて良かっです！
しかし、天気が悪く雨と風でとても寒く、綺麗な景色も全く見れず…
みんなブルブルガクガク…
寒いから早く帰りたくなりました。
天気ばかりは、どうしようもないですね。
これも、自然体験。
最後の方に温かい飲み物を出してくれてホッとしました。もう少し早く出して欲しかったのが本音。

It was quite a hard tour starting at 5:30 AM, but we got to see dolphins, whales, and sea turtles! The staff had great energy, and there was time for fun. I was very tired, but it was so much fun!

朝5時半集合でなかなかのハードツアーでしたがいるか、くじら、海ガメも見れました！
スタッフのノリも良く、遊びの時間もありとっても疲れましたがとっても楽しかったです。

This was my 4th time here but 1st time for my girlfriend. Just as entertaining the 4th time as it was the first. Very educational and beautiful at the same time. My package included the Luau and that was good too. Not like the other ones I've been to but still was good. The evening show was excellent and very well performed. I highly recommend going to the Polynesian Culture Center to everyone who comes to Hawaii.

Paul our driver was entertaining and he was very knowledgeable! It was a great tour and it was so much fun!

This snorkeling tour was awesome! We didn’t luck out on the weather, but the crew was amazing! They were so good with kids, and very relaxed! They were also so attentive to making the trip enjoyable for everyone - offering to take pictures, offering fish food, offering drinks, supporting those who didn’t want to snorkel or who were anxious without being pushy. I loved it!

The tour guaranteed front-row seats, so I was able to see everything up close and was extremely excited! Since the entire show was in English, those nearby who didn't understand English seemed to have a bit of trouble, but I think the content was relatively easy to understand. The dancers were all absolutely wonderful; the graceful hula of the wahine was beautiful, the men's dance was really cool, and the fire dance was truly exhilarating! There were also many comedic elements, so I believe it's a show that anyone can enjoy, even if they're not familiar with hula or Hawaiian culture. Time flew by, and I wanted to see more and more! I will definitely use this again!

中央前方席確約ツアーだったため、とても間近で観られて大興奮でした‼︎
全編英語でのMCだったので、お近くにいた英語が分からない方は少しご苦労されていたようですが、比較的理解しやすい内容だったと思います。
ダンサーの方々がみなさんとてもとても素敵で、ワヒネの優雅なフラはもちろん、カネのダンスはとってもカッコよく、ファイヤーダンスは本当に盛り上がりました‼︎
コメディな要素も多くあり、フラやハワイの文化に親しみがなくても、誰でも楽しめるショーだと思います。
時間があっという間に過ぎてしまい、もっともっと観たかったです‼︎
また利用します！

I signed up for this tour despite a busy schedule. The meeting time wasn't too early in the morning, and I was able to make it without any issues after breakfast. The meeting place was also close to the hotel, so I didn't get lost, but it's important to note that there were other tour groups at the meeting spot. It takes just under an hour by bus to reach the boarding location.

There were many Japanese participants on the boat, and the guide was also Japanese, making for a friendly atmosphere. We arrived at the sandbar about 20 minutes after departure. This time, the water was only ankle-deep due to low tide, which was surprising to find such a shallow area offshore.

We spent about an hour at the sandbar, enjoying volleyball with the guide and local staff. We had lunch (hamburgers) prepared by the local staff and went turtle watching. From the boat, we were able to see about 3 to 5 turtles. After that, we snorkeled for about an hour. While it’s said that you can occasionally see turtles while snorkeling, we didn’t spot any this time. However, there were various fish swimming around, and time flew by quickly.

I think this is a cost-effective tour.

ハードな日程の中、このツアーに申し込みました。
集合時間は朝早くなく、朝食後でも問題なく間に合いました。
集合場所もホテルの近くで迷うことなく行けましたが、集合場所には他のツアーの人もいるので注意が必要です。
乗船場所まではバスで1時間弱で着きます。
船は日本人参加者が多く、ガイドさんも日本の方で、フレンドリーな方々でした。
サンドバーは出港後約20分ほどで到着します。今回は干潮時で足首ほどの水深でした。沖にこんな浅瀬の場所があることにはビックリです。
サンドバーで約1時間ほどいましたが、ガイドさんや現地スタッフとのバレーボールを楽しめました。
現地スタッフが作ってくれた昼ご飯（ハンバーガー）を食べ、ウミガメウォッチです。船上からですが、3～5匹ほど見ることができました。
その後は1時間ほどのシュノーケリングで、まれにウミガメを見ることができるそうですが、今回は見ることができませんでした。ただ、魚がいろいろと群がっており、あっという間に時間は過ぎていきました。

費用対効果の高いツアーだと思います。

Not a fan of the food. The crew was fun and knew their stuff. The experience was great. We went out on a windy night and the water was a little rough. It was too cloudy to see the sunset that night too.

The air is fresh, the greenery is beautiful, and you can fully enjoy nature. The crew also entertained us with their lively guiding talk. I think it's definitely a place worth visiting.

空気がよく、緑は美しく、自然を満喫できます。クルーの方々も軽快なガイドトークで楽しませてくれました。ぜひ行くべき場所だと思います。

I didn't check the local tide chart, and the shuttle bus got caught in an accident-related traffic jam, which caused us to arrive at the port a bit late. As a result, the tide wasn't as low as I had imagined for walking on the sandbar, and the sandbar was submerged up to my knees. I was a little disappointed because I wanted to explore the sandbar. It seems that if you want to get onto the sandbar, it's best to check the tide chart and make a reservation. That said, the BBQ hamburger was exquisite. So delicious. The homemade ketchup and mayo sauce combined with the hamburger were just perfect, and it was worth eating just that. My whole family, including my kids (one girl and one boy, both in elementary school), had double burgers with double patties. The weather was bad, but we saw three sea turtles, and snorkeling in the clear ocean was amazing. My kids and I had plenty of fun just snorkeling. If the weather had been good, it would have been perfect!

現地の潮位表を確認しなかったのに加え、送迎バスも事故渋滞にはまって港に到着するのが少し遅れたこともあって、イメージしたサンドバーで砂洲の上を歩くような潮位にはならず、砂洲は膝下に水没した状態でした。砂洲を散策したかったので少し残念。砂洲にあがりたければ潮位表を確認して予約するのが良いみたい。とは言え、BBQのハンバーガーは絶品。うまい。自分で作るケチャップとマヨのソースとハンバーグがばっちりgoodでこれだけでも食べる価値有り。子供ともども家族全員パテダブルのダブルバーガーにしてもらいました。天候が悪かったけどウミガメは３匹見られたし、透明度の高い海でのシュノーケリングは最高。子供（女×１、男×１、ともに小学生）ともどもシュノーケルだけでも充分楽しめました。天気が良かったら最高だったのにな～。

Loved the show. Very talented performers will definitely recommend to friends

My daughter, who is now a middle school student, went on her first overseas trip to Hawaii. I wanted her to see a hula show and try kalua pork, so I signed up for this tour. It was also great that the venue was just a 2-3 minute walk from our hotel.

The buffet venue and the show venue were separate, so we had to move between them. The buffet was located in the garden space next to the 4th-floor corridor of the Royal Hawaiian Center, but it felt cramped with tables packed into a small area. There was a small hula show, which might have felt more intimate, but I think it would have been better to have a larger space or reduce the number of guests to about two-thirds for more comfort. The buffet style allowed us to fill our plates with kalua pork, roast beef, salads, and other favorites, which seemed to be enjoyable. The dessert sorbet was surprisingly sour, and both my daughter and I were taken aback by it.

As for the show venue, we were seated in the second-floor section, but it wasn't a very large venue, so we were really close to the stage and could see everything well.

中学生になる娘は初めての海外旅行、初めてのハワイでした。
フラショーを見せてあげたく、カルアポークも見て食べてみて欲しくて、このツアーに申込みました。
会場が宿泊していたホテルから徒歩２～３分だったのもよかったです。

ビュッフェの会場とショーの会場は別で移動が必要でした。
ビュッフェの会場はロイヤルハワイアンセンターの４階通路横のガーデンスペースですが、狭いスパースに詰め込んだ感満載のテーブル席でした。ちょっとしたフラショーがあり、身近に感じられてよいのかもしれませんが、もう少し広いところでするか、客数を三分の二くらいにしてゆとりがあった方がよいと思います。
ビュッフェスタイルでカルアポークやローストビーフ、サラダなど、好きなものを好きなだけお皿に入れるのも楽しかったようです。デザートのシャーベットは見た目よりすっぱくて娘と二人でびっくりしました。

ショーの会場は私たちは２階席でしたが、そんなに広い会場ではなかったのでステージまですごく近くてよく見ることができました。

I was able to see dolphins. The crew on board, including the captain, skillfully found a pod of dolphins and guided us into the water. I thought they would be further out at sea, but I was surprised to find them closer to the shore. While in the water, wearing snorkeling goggles, we were signaled to "look down!" However, rather than looking straight down, we needed to look ahead at a shallow distance to see the dolphins. During that time, some people in our group couldn't see anything and the dolphins swam away without them getting a glimpse.

While it says "you can swim with dolphins," it seems that the dolphins do not come close to you. The experience felt more like watching a pod of dolphins from the water. If you want to swim with them, I think you would have a more enjoyable time at a seaside park. Additionally, repeatedly getting in and out of the water can be a bit tough for elderly people and small children, especially since the boat isn't very large.

After the dolphin experience, we moved to another location for snorkeling. We spent about 40-50 minutes there. The crew worked hard to provide us with slides and kayaks, and we were able to see sea turtles.

Lastly, I won’t mention names, but one Japanese female crew member who was with us from the pickup was quite disappointing. She was in training, and perhaps it was her first day, as she kept saying things like "I don’t know how to say in Japanese!" and "It's super amazing!"—phrases that are not commonly used in Japanese customer service. Although she played a video with safety instructions, her conversations with senior crew members and the cameraman about her dog and husband (some of which were quite vulgar, mixing Japanese and English) were distracting, making it hard to hear the video. I also wondered about the senior male crew member who didn’t intervene.

I would have preferred if such conversations were held after the tour. It seems they assumed that the Japanese participants wouldn’t understand English, but among those who attended that day, we exchanged glances, thinking, "That person is saying something incredible..." Since most of the participants were Japanese, I wished they had shown a bit more consideration.

イルカは見る事ができました。
船長さん含む船上クルーの皆さんは、慣れた様子でイルカの群れを見つけ、私達を海に入れてリードしてくれました。沖の方にいるのかと思っていましたが、意外に沿岸部にいて驚きでした。海の中では、シュノーケルのゴーグルを付けていて、look down ! 下見て！の合図で下を見るのですが、真下というよりは、前方で、浅く遠くを見ないとイルカは見えません。そうしている間に何も見えずイルカが去ってしまい、全く見られなかった人達も同じグループには数人いました。
”イルカと一緒に泳げる”とありますが、イルカは決して寄って来てくれるわけではないようです。感覚としては、海の中からイルカの群れを見る...という感じでしょうか。一緒に泳ぐならシーサイドパークの方が確実に楽しめるかと思いました。あと何度も海に入る、船に戻るを繰り返し、船も大きいわけではないので、高齢の方や小さい子供は少し辛いかもしれません。

イルカが終わったら、次は場所を移動してシュノーケリングをします。ここで40-50分過ごしました。滑り台やカヤックを出してくださり、ウミガメを見たりとクルーの皆さんはとても頑張ってくださいました。

最後に、お名前は控えますが送迎から一緒の日本人女性クルーが、とても残念な感じでした。
研修中との事でしたが、たぶんその日が初日だったのでしょうか、説明中は、I don’t know how to say in Japanese ! や、超すごいんでぇ！などとあまり日本人の接客では使わない言葉を連発し、「注意事項のビデオを流すので、よく見てください」と流したものの狭い車内の中で、彼女は先輩クルーやカメラマンに、ご自身の犬や旦那様(一部かなり下品な内容を日本語と英語を混ぜて話されていて不快極まりないです)の話、今日これ終わったらうちに遊びに来ない？などと、積極的に話しかけ、その声が邪魔になりビデオの音声なんて聞こえませんでした。それを注意しない先輩男性クルーもどうなのか...。
そういうお話は業務中でなく、終わっかてからしていただきたかったです。ツアーに参加する日本人は全く英語がわからないと思われているのでしょうが、その日に参加した人達の中で、「あの人、すごい事話してるね...」と顔を見合わせていましたよ。日本人参加者がほとんどのツアーなのですから、もう少し配慮をしていただきたかったです。

I might have needed to mention this beforehand, but if I was expecting a title like "Enjoy the Ranch with a Course That Suits You," there was no level check or inquiry about my preferences; it was just a slow, straightforward walk.

事前に言っておかなければならなかったのかもしれませんが、「あなたに合ったコースで牧場を満喫」というタイトルを期待していたら、レベルチェックも希望を聞かれることもなく、ただ淡々とゆっくり歩くだけでした。

I am 46 years old. My wife and I went on a trip to Hawaii to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. During that time, we participated in this tour and created the best memories. The weather was nice, and while watching the sunset, we reaffirmed our love for each other. Since we didn't have a wedding ceremony in a church, my wife was moved to tears! Our spirits were high, and even though it wasn't suggested, we ended up sharing a vow kiss... The only disappointment was that the champagne we added as an option was served quite late in the course, and we couldn't finish it. I wish it had been on the table from the beginning... We ended up adding champagne unnecessarily. However, it was a very meaningful dinner and time, and we were extremely satisfied!

46歳です。妻と2人で25周年の結婚記念日にハワイ旅行にいきました。
その際、このツアーに参加して最高〜の想い出ができました。
天気も良く、沈む夕日を眺めながら改めて、2人の愛を誓い合いました。
教会での挙式をしていなかったので、妻も目を潤ませて感動していました！
気分も高まり、言われてもいないのに誓いのキスなんかしちゃいました・・・。
残念だったのは、オプションで追加したシャンパンが、コースのかなり後で出てきて、飲みきれなかった事ぐらいですね〜。
最初から、テーブルに出ていて欲しかった・・・。
無駄にシャンパンを追加してしまいました。
でも、とても有意義なディナーと時間で、大満足です！

Fantastic experience.
Plenty to do and see during the whole day.
Enjoyed the shows in each country.

My son and I just did the 90 minute scenic tour. It was his first time and it was absolutely fantastic! The whole trail was very smooth and the view was breathtaking like no other. Our wranglers were very knowledgeable about the trail and very attentive. My son who is 8 absolutely enjoyed the ride and had no problem riding this trail. Definitely a ‘must activity’ at Gunstock Ranch!

Since I was planning to go to the North Shore in the afternoon, I chose this plan without a shuttle service. I arrived by rental car, and although there was no bench at the meeting point "Deli," the local staff were accommodating, so it wasn't a problem. I was worried about whether the tour would proceed due to the rain in the morning, but we only experienced a delay in preparation because of the rain, and we departed 15 minutes later with two boats. Everyone was Japanese, and it seemed that many participants were those who had taken the shuttle from Waikiki. Perhaps there was a Japanese-speaking guide. Despite the rain getting stronger at times, I didn't feel seasick, and we were able to see both sea turtles and manta rays. The water at Sandbar was about knee-deep, but I was very satisfied that we could land there. I didn't have high expectations for snorkeling, but there were life jackets available, so it was completely fine even if you couldn't swim. There were about 40 people swimming in lines along the coral reef, and since the time was limited and we swam the same route back and forth, it was crowded. My child was more concerned about bumping into the feet of the person in front or hitting the coral rather than looking at the fish, so it might have been better to wait on the boat. The participants were obedient to the instructions of the two Japanese female staff members, but one was kind while the other couldn't hide her condescending attitude. At the very beginning, when assigning guests to the boats, it seemed they didn't grasp the number of people who weren't participating via the shuttle bus, or perhaps their Japanese was actually limited. They acted arrogantly as if there were customers boarding without permission after exceeding the boarding limit, and after a debate about what was said, one of them yelled in Japanese, "Isn't it enough to just apologize?!" and then continued to assert herself in English towards her busy colleague, treating us as if we were completely at fault, which made for a rather strange experience in Hawaii. If there were English speakers present, that behavior wouldn't have happened. However, I have great respect for the local staff who worked hard without showing any displeasure in the rain. It seems there are no showers at the port, so I think it's better to prepare to return in wet swimsuits with towels and warm clothing. You can leave your belongings on the boat, but since there are no waterproof bags, it's also good to prepare for that.

午後にノースショアへ行く予定だったので、送迎ナシでこのプランを選びました。レンタカーで到着し、集合場所の「Deli」のベンチはなかったですが、現地のスタッフが対応してくれて問題なかったです。朝から雨で催行されるのか不安でしたが、雨で準備が遅れただけで二船で１５分後に出航しました。全員日本人で、ワイキキからの送迎による参加の方が多かったようです。もしかしたら日本語ガイド付きだったのかもしれません。ときおり強くなる雨の中、酔う事もなく、ウミガメもマンタも見られて、サンズバーは膝ぐらいでしたが、上陸出来て大満足です。シュノーケリングはあまり期待してなかったのですが、ライフジャケットがあり、泳げなくても全然大丈夫です。４０人ぐらいでサンゴ礁に沿って数列で泳ぐ形でしたし、時間も限られ往復同じ経路を泳ぐため混みこみで、前の人の足があたるか、サンゴに足が当たるかに気をとられ、魚を見るよりそちらを気にして子供は怖がっていました。船で待っていても良かったかもしれません。参加者の皆さん、素直に二人いる日本人？女性スタッフの言うことに従っておられましたが、一人は親切、一人は上からな態度が隠せないスタッフでした。最初どちらの船に客を割り振るかの時点で、送迎バスで参加していない人の人数を把握していないのか、日本語が実は不自由なのか、乗船制限を超えて割り振った挙句、勝手に乗り込んでいる客がいるかのように横柄に振る舞い、言った言わないの水かけ論の後、謝ればいいんでしょ！と日本語でわめき、その後も忙しく準備している同僚に対し英語で自己主張し、こちらに全部非があって、完全に変な客扱い・発言で、ハワイに来て違った意味で興味深い体験でした。英語圏の人がいたらあの振る舞いはないでしょうね。でも雨の中嫌な顔一つ見せず頑張っていた現地スタッフの方たちの働きには頭が下がりました。港にはシャワーがない様子なので、タオルや防寒具など濡れた水着のまま帰る準備をしておいた方が良いと思います。荷物は船に残しておけますが、防水バッグ等はないのでそちらの準備もしておくと良いです。

It was raining in the morning, and the venue was changed, making it very difficult for non-staying guests at Hilton Hawaiian Village to find the location! However, while wandering around, we noticed more and more groups who seemed to be lost like us, and we all searched together, which eased our anxiety. Among them, a family from NJ seemed to be staying in the tower with the ballroom after the change, and although it was unrelated to the show, the concierge we asked at the hotel was not very helpful. The venue felt like a large wedding hall and had a smaller number of attendees, but we had seats in the front center, where we could closely watch lei-making and even get temporary tattoos done by magicians. The children had a great time as well. They came to our seats to take drink orders for three rounds, and we were allowed to go to the buffet first, with both the food and desserts being delicious. The show started quite early, so I was very grateful for the priority seating. Of course, we got to see an impressive show, and even though the rain in Hawaii had us feeling a bit down, we enjoyed a fun night with a fire show by three masters.

朝から雨が降っていて、場所が変更されての開催でしたが、ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ非滞在者にはとても場所が分かりにくい！！しかし、うろついている間に、同じような迷子？グループが増えていき、みんなで探して不安がまぎれました。なかでもNJからお越しのご家族は、変更後のボルルームのあるタワーに宿泊していたらしく、ショーとは関係ないですが、質問したホテルのコンシェルジュが頼りなかったです。会場は大きな結婚式場みたいな感じで人数も少なめな感じでしたが、前方中央席で、近くでレイ作りや、マジックで入れ墨？を書いてくれたり、子供も多いに楽しんでいました。ドリンクも三杯分、きっちり席まで聞きに来てくれたし、バッフェも優先に取らせてもらえて、料理もデザートもおいしかったです。ショーは結構早く始まったので、優先で取れるのは大変ありがたいと思いました。もちろんばっちり迫力のあるショーが見られたし、雨のハワイではテンションも下がり気味でしたが、三人のマスターによるファイヤーショーも見られて、楽しい夜になりました。
