All Reviews for Food & Dining Experiences

The content of the tour was good, but it rained and was cold on the day, so I gave up on seeing the coral reefs. Also, the sandbar was submerged due to high tide, so the beach was not visible.

ツアーの内容は良かったのですが、当日雨が降って寒かったのでサンゴ礁をみるのは断念しました。またサンドバーも満潮で砂浜は見えませんでした。

It's a one-hour show, but it's not boring at all. It had not only impersonations but also a touch of Hawaii. It might be worth seeing at least once.

1時間のショーですが、飽きないですね。
ものまねショーだけではなく、ハワイらしさもありました。一度は良いかもしれません。

This trip exceeded expectations. The sandbar and turtle viewing was great but the best part was the snorkeling. Probably the best snorkeling I've ever had. Lunch really hit the spot after some fun on the water. Would def do it again!

After researching about the sandbar, I found that it's recommended to visit on days when the water depth is below zero meters at low tide, so I chose a perfect day to participate.

However! When I arrived, the water depth was around knee height. I couldn't encounter the sandbar floating in the sea.

The snorkeling afterwards was also not satisfactory in terms of visibility and the number of fish. According to a local lady, it was due to several days of heavy rain. I think those who want to enjoy snorkeling properly should arrange a separate opportunity to do so.

Although the sandbar and snorkeling did not meet my expectations, the guides on the boat were very kind and pleasant, making the tour itself enjoyable.

It was also nice to receive a warm drink after coming out of the sea.

サンドバーについていろいろ調べると干潮時に水深が０メートル以下になる日がオススメということで、バッチリな日を選んで参加しました。

しかーし！現地に行って見ると水深は膝の高さあたり。海に浮かぶサンドバーには遭遇できませんでした。

その後のシュノーケリングも透明度・魚の数ともに満足いくレベルではなかったです。現地のお姉さんが仰るには数日雨が多かったためとのこと。シュノーケリングがしっかりしたい人は別途きちんと満喫できる機会を設けた方がいいと思います。


目的のサンドバーやシュノーケリングはあまり満足いくものではありませんでしたが、船でいろいろ説明をしてくれたガイドの方々はとても親切で感じが良かったのでツアー自体はよかったです。

海から上がった後に暖かい飲み物がもらえたのもよかったですね。

It's a very enjoyable show that feels like a time slip back to my youth. The handsome Elvis, even though I knew he was an impersonator, drew me in as if he were the real Elvis. Next was Michael, who embodies my own youth! I found myself naturally moving to the rhythm and singing along.

As for the food, it was centered around meat dishes with flavors that suit Japanese tastes. I must admit, I wasn't expecting much from the buffet at a Hawaiian event, but the food was very satisfying.

At the end of the show, there was a photo opportunity with the performers! I got to take pictures with everyone and was so excited. I will definitely participate again next time.

青春時代にタイムスリップしたようなとても楽しいショ－です。
イケメンのエルビス、なんだかそっくりさんとわかっていても、本物のエルビスと勘違いしてい引き込まれてしまいました。
つぎにマイケル、私自身の青春時代そのもの！自然に体がリズムをとり、いっしょに口ずさんでいる自分に気づきました。
食事ですが、肉料理が中心で日本人の口に合う味付けされており、失礼ですがハワイのイベントビュッフェの料理と期待しておりませんでしたが、とても満足できる料理でした。
ショ－の終わりは出演者との写真撮影！全員と写真を撮って頂き、とてもはしゃいでしまいました。次回もまた参加致します。

Thank you Jenner and crew for a wonderful day! The sandbar is beautiful and snorkeling was the highlight of the day. This trip is something we will remember for years.

The half-day tour of Oahu felt a bit too packed. The break in Haleiwa was particularly too long. It might have been better to stop at the North Shore beach for a photo opportunity instead. The guide's explanations were smooth and not boring, but I felt a sense of discomfort as the content focused too much on selling products. The Polynesian Cultural Center was excellent. The experiences were satisfying, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

オアフ島の半日観光は詰め込み過ぎのきらいあり。
特にハレイワでの休憩は長過ぎる。ノースショアの浜で、降車し撮影タイムを取った方が良かったのではないか？
ガイドの説明は、淀みなく、退屈でなかった、話の内容が商品の売り込みに終始していたので嫌悪感を覚えた。
ポリネシアン文化センターは秀逸。体験も満足でき、十二分に楽しめた。

After practicing snorkeling at the sandbar, playing beach volleyball, and enjoying a delicious lunch, we searched for sea turtles from the boat. Snorkeling in the vast coral reef was enjoyable even for someone like me who isn't a strong swimmer! Also, the guide (a young woman) had an incredible way of taking photos!

サンドバーでのシュノーケリング練習やビーチバレー、美味しいランチの後には船上からのウミガメ探し。広大なサンゴ礁でシュノーケリング。泳ぎが苦手な私にも充分に楽しめました‼︎また、軽快な喋りのガイドさん(若い女性でした)の写真の撮り方が神がかってました‼︎

I was charged such a high tour price, and some participants were forced to buy overpriced items at souvenir shops, which was quite exhausting. It felt like a budget Japanese group tour, despite the high cost. However, once we arrived at the Polynesian Cultural Center, the student guides were doing their best, and it was theme park-like, so the children were enjoying themselves.

こんなに高いツアー金額を取られ、おみやげ屋さんでぼったくりの商品を買わされている参加者もいて、なんだか疲れました。
格安日本人団体ツアーのような内容です。高いのに。
ポリネシアセンターについてからは、学生ガイドさんたちが頑張っていたし、テーマパークらしく、子供たちも楽しんでいましたが。

Amazing. Great entertainment. Food amazing. Really well done

Was really well done. Worth the money. Great entertainment and food.

We had an amazing time. It was more then what we expected. From the tour bus to the food and great entertainment we never stopped smiling or laughing. I would recommend this to family and friends. My husband and I have been to a Luau before and this was the first time for our boys who are 13 & 11. They loved ever minute of it.

Excellent adventure, accomodating and friendly staffs.

The crew was great, good food, good music, all around good time watching the sunset and fireworks.

We thoroughly enjoyed the show with our family. We went on the day we arrived in Hawaii, and it was so much fun that it made us forget about jet lag. Additionally, there was an accident, and I made a last-minute request, but Mr. M from Veltra responded quickly and was very helpful. I apologize for the inconvenience. Also, since it was our honeymoon, we received warm words, which my husband and I were very touched by. I would appreciate it if you could convey this to the person in charge. Thank you very much for everything this time.

家族でショーを堪能しました。
ハワイ到着日に行ったのですが、時差ボケも吹っ飛ぶ楽しさでした。
また、アクシデントがあり、急遽のお願いをしたのですが、ベルトラのMさんに迅速に対応して頂き、とても助かりました。無理を言ってすみませんでした。
そして、またハネムーンということもあり、温かい言葉を頂き、夫とともに感激いたしました。
その旨、担当者さまに伝えて頂けると嬉しいです。
今回は本当にありがとうございました。

We opted for the 5-star menu, and it was awesome. food was delicious, and service was fantastic. It was a terrific way to celebrate our anniversary.

After my daughter's wedding, we held a meal for the guests. They prepared seats by the window, and the food was excellent. For the final dessert, we upgraded to include Tantalus's Hill, but for some reason, ice cream was served instead. When I informed them that it was different from what I had requested, they quickly made a new one for us. However, we ended up being late for the Tantalus Hill viewing tour. Fortunately, VELTRA adjusted the tour time by one hour. I believe they also provided a popular Japanese guide (the guide used a secret weapon to beautifully capture the night view). As an apology from Michel's, we received some alcohol. There were some accidents, but the follow-up was outstanding, and I am grateful. I believe VELTRA is a reliable tour service. Thank you very much.

娘の挙式後に参列者を招いてお食事会をしました
窓側にお席を用意して頂きお食事も最高です、最後のデザートですが、タンタラスの丘を付けるためデザートをグレードアップしたのですが何故かアイスクリームが出されたので申し込んだ内容と違う旨伝えると、直ぐに作りなおして下さいました。
ですが・・・タンタラスの丘鑑賞ツアーに間に合わなくなったのです
　ところがVELTRAさんがツアーの時間を一時間下げて頂きました、ガイドさんも人気のある日本人の方にしてくださったと思います（ガイドさんは秘密兵器を出し夜景を綺麗に移して下さいました）
ミッシェルズからはお詫びにアルコールを頂けました
アクシデントは有りましたがその後の対応が素晴らしく感謝しています
VELTRAさんは信頼できるツアーだと思いました
有難うございました

I participated in the Terrace Luau Buffet & Show. The bright and hospitable staff made it enjoyable, and the food was to the taste of Japanese people. It was delicious.

As for the show seating, I had the best seats in the front row, center on the second floor, which allowed me to see the entire stage, and I was very satisfied. I think I was able to sit in such a good spot because I moved quickly after the meal when the venue opened.

Personally, I thought the male performer in the fire dance was the best. I have seen fire dances a few times in the past, but this man's performance was powerful, wonderful, and flawless, which was very moving. I was happy to shake hands and take a photo with him during the greeting on the way out. I couldn't help but say, "You are NO.1!" and he responded with a special smile, saying "Oh!"

テラスルアウビュッフェ＆ショーに参加しました。
明るくホスピタリティーなスタッフが盛り上げてくれて楽しかったですし、料理も日本人の口に合います。美味しかったです。
ショーの席ですが、２階最前列・中央の最高の席で、ステージ全体を見渡せて満足♪　ラッキーでした。食事が終わり、開場の案内があった後、すぐに移動したから良い席に座れたんだと思います。
ショーは、個人的にファイヤーダンスの男性のパフォーマンスが１番良かったです。過去に数回ファイヤーダンスを見てきましたが、こちらの男性のパフォーマンスは雄々しくて素晴らしく完璧なノーミスで、とても感動しました。帰りのグリーティングで握手・一緒に写真を撮ってもらえて嬉しかったです。思わず「You are　NO.１！」と声掛けしたら「Oh！」とスペシャルな笑顔が返って来ました。

We had a wonderful evening. Food was great, entertainment was fun. Very helpful staff. Would recommend this to everyone.

This is far the best show we attended in Hawaii. I hate to see the same shows but this one we will definitely go back and see again. I would highly recommend getting a tour guide to make your experience that much better. Place is huge and will need at least 2 days to see all the villages.

Night show left me speechless and in Awe. I didn't want to end and didn't blink once. Great performers and comedy show.

We found this activity by recommendation from local tour guide. At first i was hesitant about seeing this show as I seen similar shows in the past. We purchased the dinner/cocktail show and far by best best dinner show i had. Food was great and live dance entertainment made the dinner that much better. We got to meet great people as its a group setting.

As we entered the main show we we're delighted by the setting arrangement as all the seats had a great view of the stage. All the performers interacted with the audience that made the show even better.

We enjoyed the photo opportunities with the performers after show.

Before the main show, we started with the buffet. While enjoying a small-scale hula dance performed by two or three cast members accompanied by ukulele music, we had our meal at a somewhat cramped terrace seat.

The main dish was a whole roasted pig, which was warm and quite delicious.

After finishing our meal, we moved to the main show venue. They guide you to your seats.

The stage featured Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, and Katy Perry, along with fire dancing and more. While there wasn't much consistency, the incredible amount of practice, high level of performance, and above all, the energy were so impressive that I found myself captivated before I knew it. I don't know much about Elvis due to my generation, but he performed some famous songs that I've at least heard of, and he was incredibly talented, so it wasn't a problem at all. Moreover, he came down to the audience to shake hands, which made the older ladies in the crowd cheer with excitement.

Each performance was outstanding, but the fire dance was particularly amazing, so I highly recommend experiencing its intensity in person.

Before seeing it, I was a bit skeptical thinking, "What is this impersonator show...?" but it turned out to be a genuinely wonderful show. Given the high quality of the performance, the fact that they take photos with you for free after the show, and that it includes a meal, the price is very reasonable, so I definitely recommend it!

メインのショー観賞前にまずブュッフェ。
ウクレレの弾き語りと２、３人のキャストによる小規模なフラダンスが繰り広げられるなか、そこそこ狭いテラス席で食事。

料理は豚の丸焼きがメインで、それは温かいしまぁまぁ美味しかった。

食事が終わるとメインのショー会場に移動。
座る位置は案内してくれる。

ステージはエルビス・プレスリーとマイケル・ジャクソンとケイティ・ペリー。そしてファイヤーダンスなどなど。
一貫性はないけど、とにかくバックにとてつもない練習量と、完成度、何より熱量がすごくて、いつの間にか見入ってしまう。
エルビスさんって世代的に全く知らないけど、一応聞いたことのある有名な曲をやってくれるし、そもそもめちゃくちゃ歌がうまいので、知らなくても全く問題ない。
しかも客席に降りて握手をしてくれるので、世代的に知っているであろうおば様方は歓声を上げておられましたｗ

どのステージも甲乙つけがたい出来栄えですが、特にファイヤーダンスはどうかしてるのでぜひ実際にみて迫力を味わってほしいです。

見るまでは「そっくりさんショーって・・・？」と、斜に構えていたけど
素直に素晴らしいショーでした。
こんなに完成度高いショーがみられて、鑑賞後には肩組んで写真もタダで撮ってくれるし、食事もついてこのお値段は安いので、是非！

I found this restaurant that model Anne Nakamura introduced on Instagram, and I had been curious about it for a while.

I was going to Hawaii and searched for a site where I could make a reservation in Japanese, and I found VERTRA, so I made a reservation in advance. It was very helpful!

I mentioned in the reservation form that I preferred a window seat, but I wasn't seated by the window...

Still, the interior was stylish, the food was very delicious, and I was able to see the sunset, so it was great♡

By the way, there are staff members who can speak Japanese, so it's reassuring.

モデルの中村アンちゃんがInstagramで紹介していて、ずっと気になってたお店です。

ハワイに行くことになり、日本語で予約出来るサイトを探していいてVERTRAさんを見つけ事前に予約して行きました。助かりました！

事前の予約フォームで窓際希望とお伝えしましたが、窓際には案内されませんでした。。。

それでも店内はおしゃれでお料理はとっても美味しくてサンセットも見れたので良かったです♡

ちなみに店員さんは日本語を話せる方がいるので、安心です。

The tour guide was very nice, but I wish they had informed us upfront that we needed wetsuits and that there would be various costs involved. I can't swim, so I just watched, but I ended up feeling nauseous, which was tough. I think it might be a bit difficult for non-swimmers.

ツアーの方がとてもいい方でしたが、最初にウエットスーツが必要とか、もろもろお金が必要だったので、最初に伝えて欲しいです。私は泳げないので、みてただけでしたが、酔ってしまい、辛かったです。泳げない人はちょっと無理かなぁ

Wonderful trip around the island and informative and enjoyable day / night at the Polynesian centre and luau

Both Presley and Michael had high quality performances, and I really enjoyed the Hawaiian hula and fire dance! For those who love America, I definitely recommend attending the show! The seats are assigned randomly, so I wonder if those who enter early get better seats? Before it starts, you can take photos and check out the exhibits, allowing you to spend your time as you like. The Mai Tai is shared at a table with others on the terrace, but it has a sense of openness, and you can fully enjoy Hawaiian cuisine. The whole roasted pig is quite impressive!

プレスリーもマイケルもクオリティが高く、ハワイのフラやファイヤーダンスもとても楽しめました！
アメリカ好きの方にはショーだけでも是非行って頂きたいです！
席はランダムで決められていて、早く入った人が良い席に座れるのかな？
始まるまでにも、写真を撮ったり中の展示品をみたりして、思い思いに過ごせます。
マイタイは、テラスで他の人と相席ですが、開放感があり、ハワイの料理を満喫できます。
豚の丸焼きはインパクトありますね！

It was my first time seeing the show, and I enjoyed it from start to finish. There was a handmade feel that occasionally showed the team's unity amidst the high-quality performances. There were hula dances and Hawaiian traditions, as well as impersonation acts, which were all very good. Next, I would like to try a plan that allows me to see behind the scenes.

初めてみたショーでしたが、クオリティの高いパフォーマンスの中にもチームの結束力がみえる手作り感が時々あったりと、初めから最後まで楽しめるショーでした。
フラやハワイの伝統もあり、モノマネショーもあり、とてもよかったです。
次は舞台裏の見れるプランにもいってみたいです。

We celebrated our June birthdays with a glorious 1 hr trail ride at your ranch on Tues June 6. The wranglers starting with Tate and the other girls were professional, extremely nice and treated us all like royalty! Our horses were gentle and extremely professional as well. The sights were magnificent and we would highly recommend the Gunstock Ranch to any tourists and locales visiting the North Shore!

Thanks to the whole crew for showing us a good time as well as our visiting guests! We look forward to doing it again! Mahalo & Cheers!

It was a bit chilly, and the sea wasn't as shallow as I imagined, but I was able to have a great time playing in the shallow waters.

Instead of eating in the water, I had a hamburger inside the moving boat due to the strong winds. Additionally, the care and hospitality of the local staff were very impressive. The hot cocoa service after coming out of the sea and the guitar performance were excellent services.

I was able to see sea turtles properly, and feeding the fish allowed me to see them up close, which was interesting.

If the sea had been a bit warmer and there was no wind, it would have been a five-star experience!

やや寒い時期で海もそんなに浅くはなかったので、想像と違う部分がありましたが、
遠浅の海でしっかり遊べました。

海の中で食べるというより、風が強く移動の船の中でハンバーガーを食べました。
また、添乗員の現地スタッフの方々の気遣い、ホスピタリティはとても良く感じられました。
海から上がった後のホットココアサービスやギター演奏などは、とてもよいサービスでした。
ウミガメはちゃんと見られたし、魚の餌付けにより魚を間近で見られたのも、
面白かったです。

もう少し海が暖かくて、風がなければ、星５ですね～
