All Reviews for Food & Dining Experiences

We had a wonderful time, very entertaining! Would recommend to others.

This time, I went on my first trip to Hawaii. Before reaching the sandbar, I was able to beautifully confirm the presence of the honu (sea turtle) and saw many of them. Thanks to Yuki, one of the cruise staff, who accurately pointed out where the honu were... (laughs) Everyone was a wonderful cruise staff member. I actually had given up on snorkeling because I’m not a good swimmer, but one of the staff encouraged me, saying, "Don't worry! I couldn't do it at first either. You can do it!" That motivated me to give it a try. Because of that, I had a fantastic experience. Thank you. I'm sorry I forgot your name. Also, the captain was cool!!! He was a refreshing handsome guy. Next time I go to Hawaii, I want to participate again. Mahalo.

今回、初のハワイ旅行で行きました☆。.:＊・゜サンドバーに行くまでにホヌさんも綺麗に確認出来たし、沢山見る事が出来ました(,,•﹏•,,)クルースタッフの、ゆきさんがホヌのいる場所を的確に言ってくれたおかげでもあるんですが｡｡｡（笑）皆さん素敵なクルースタッフでした。私は、実は金づちでシュノーケリングは、諦めてたんですがスタッフさんの1人がおねーさん大丈夫だよー。私も最初出来なかった。出来るよー！って励ましてくれたのでやってみる気になれました。そのおかげで、素晴らしい体験が出来ました。ありがとう。お名前を忘れてごめんなさい。そして、キャプテンもカッコ良かったです!!!さわやかイケメンさんでした(,,•﹏•,,)次回ハワイへ行った時は、参加したいです。マハロ

It was a tour that was kind to children and created lasting memories. It was cold, so we couldn't go into the sea, but we were able to see sea turtles, and the kids enjoyed the atmosphere and the snacks we received. I just wish the weather had been better... but there's nothing we can do about that.

子供にも優しく、思い出になるツアーでした。寒くて海にも入れなかったけどウミガメも見れたし、子供達は雰囲気といただいたスナックを楽しんでいました。
ただ本当にお天気さえよかったらな…と仕方のないことですが。

it was a great day, the boat was really nice, we sat up the front with our legs dangling off the boat. we had two snorkel spots, both great, the water was a little murky but still saw a lot of pretty fish and some turtles. good equipment, nice friendly staff. the lunch was good. I have also been snorkelling at Waikiki but this was far superior. good eqipment, great day, highly recommend.

We went on Christmas Day and paid extra for better seating. We still had to wait in a really long line to get checked in. Food was good and the show was fun. I would recommend getting there earlier than what they tell you.

I was prepared to walk on the sand, but due to the tide, the sand was underwater during the time I participated, so I couldn't walk on it. However, the scenery was incredibly beautiful, and I got to see many sea turtles, making it a fun tour.

砂の上を歩くつもりで準備していたのですが、潮の満ち引きの加減で、参加した時間帯は砂は海の中にあり、歩くことはできませんでした。しかし、景色はすごくきれいだったし、たくさんのウミガメにも会えたし、楽しいツアーでした。

This tour was just unbelievable! We had so much fun playing beach volleyball on the sandbar, watching turtles, and best of all the snorkeling. Great snorkeling spot to see lots of fishes and beautiful corals. My niece got to see three turtles up close! The crews were really fun to hang out with.

We attended as a couple. It took a long time to be guided to our seats and to the buffet before the show started. However, once the second part of the show began, all of that was forgotten. It was my first time seeing a fire dance up close like that. I was amazed by the intensity and wondered how they could do it—were their feet and mouths okay? It was incredibly powerful. I definitely want to participate again next time!

夫婦で参加しました。ショーが始まるまでは、席への案内や、ビュッフェへの案内もたいへん時間がかかりました。しかし、第2部のショーが始まるとそんなことはどこへやら。特に最後のファイヤーダンスをこれだけ身近で見たのは初めてでした。なぜそんなことが出来るのか？足は、口は大丈夫なの？とすごい迫力でした。ぜひ次回も参加したいと思います！

First, you can enjoy a truly VIP experience sitting on luxurious sofas in the green room while being served champagne and pinchos. After that, you can take a commemorative photo with Gaga. Then, an older brother who resembles Ebizo will guide you backstage, where you can see stage costumes and props, including Michael Jackson's glove, and even touch some hula accessories (like pom-poms).

You get to go on stage and take commemorative photos, spending a really enjoyable time. The seats are right in the center of the front row, allowing you to see Elvis, Gaga, Michael, and in between, the hula and fire dance performances, making the time fly by.

This was not just an impersonation or lip-syncing; it was a real singing and dancing entertainment show. The food was plentiful, including lobster, steak, salmon, and more, all delicious.

Finally, at the exit, you can take a commemorative photo with each person and get signatures on the photos taken in the green room before heading home.

まず、グリーンルームでシャンパンやピンチョスなどを豪華なソファーに座ってサービスされ、ホントにＶＩＰな気分を味わいます。その後ｶﾞｶﾞと記念撮影。
その後、海老蔵似のお兄さんに舞台裏を案内され、舞台衣装や装置、マイケルジャクソンの手袋など見せてもらったり、フラの小物（ポンポンなど）を触らせてもらったり…
実際に舞台上に上がり記念写真を撮ってもらい、なかなか楽しい時間を過ごしました。
席は、舞台最前列のど真ん中で、エルビス、ｶﾞｶﾞ様、マイケル・・・その合間のフラやファイアーダンスなど、しっかり見られ、あっという間の時間でした。
物まね・・・という域ではなく、口パクではなく本当に歌って踊るエンタ―テーメントのショーでした。
お料理はボリュームがありロブスター、ステーキ、サーモンなどなど有り、おいしくいただきました。
最後に、出口で一人ひとりと記念撮影をし、グリーンルームで撮った写真にサインをもらって
帰りました。

The luau combined with the show was a perfect visit to the culture center. We all enjoyed the show! Amazing seats

We enjoyed the blue water views and the warm hospitality of the crew. Great trip!

The Chief's Luau was fun and culture fulfilled. This was our second Luau and found this better than the Paradise Cove Luau as there was alot more teachings of the Polynesia culture. It was wonderful to hear about the different Polynesian beleifs, markings dancers and so much more. The Chief was a great host and his passion for his culture was lovely. A wonderful night.

The sea is beautiful. I didn't go snorkeling, but those who did said it was amazing. However, the BBQ lunch is not very promising.

海がきれいです。シュノーケリングはしませんでしたが、された方によると最高だそうです。
ただ、BBQランチはあまり期待できません。

If you're tired of slow horseback riding in Kualoa, want to gallop like a cowboy from a Western, or simply love Western riding, I believe GUNSTOCK is the perfect ranch for you.

I experienced horseback riding at 1. Kualoa, 2. Koko Crater, 3. Turtle Bay Hilton, and 4. GUNSTOCK, and among them, this one is the best.

2 also offers a great view from a small hill, but it's more British. 3 was a horseback trek along the beach. At 4, during the trek, they were practicing roping calves in the back arena.

Next time, I hope to stay overnight at this ranch for a cowboy experience. (Note: For those who want to experience Western riding in Japan, Eldorado in Chiba is the best.)

クアロアののろのろ歩く乗馬に飽きた貴方、西部劇に出てくるカウボイのように颯爽と走りたい貴方、ウエスタン乗馬が大好きな貴方、そんな方にもってこいの牧場＜乗馬クラブ＞はＧＵＮＳＴＯＣＫと思います。
１、クアロア、２、ココクレータ、３、タートルベイヒルトン、４、ＧＵＮＳＴＯＣＫでの乗馬とオアフ島でいろいろ体験しましたがその中ではここが一番でしょう。
２は４同様、小高い丘の上からの眺めが最高ですがブリティッシュです。３は海辺をトレッキングする乗馬でした。
４ではトレッキングの途中、奥の馬場で小牛を投げ縄で捕らえる練習をしていました。
次回はこの牧場で寝泊りしながらカウボイ体験が出来ればと考えています。＜注：日本でウエスタン乗馬を体験したい方は千葉にあるエルドラドが一番です＞以上

This New Year's, I went to Hawaii for the first time! I attended the Rock-a-Hula show by Legends in Concert Waikiki for the second time. The last time I watched from the back of the second floor, I saw people in the front row enjoying their meals while watching the show and thought, "This is how it should be in Waikiki!" I decided that next time, I would sit there for a revenge experience! So, I splurged on a VIP tour that included a behind-the-scenes look.

There were four groups participating in this tour. First, we waited in the VIP room, which had free drinks and a variety of delicious snacks that left us very satisfied! After a while, Lady Gaga came to take individual photos with us. Then, a manager who could speak a little Japanese slowly walked us through the backstage for about ten minutes, showing us props and set pieces while explaining everything. Standing on stage and looking out at the audience, I felt like I was Elvis or Michael—it was the best!

We sat in the front row for a full-course dinner, which was quite tasty! Finally, the show began, and being in the front row was completely different from watching from the second floor! We were so close that we could even see the sweat. Our eyes met several times, and it was just amazing! My wife was also really into it and at her maximum excitement level! I'm so glad I decided to splurge! She was extremely happy.

Since we came to enjoy Hawaii, I especially recommend this to couples from the Elvis and Michael generation. How about a surprise gift for your wife?

年末年始、お正月で初のハワイ！
ロック・ア・フラショーbyレジェンド・イン・コンサート・ワイキキは、今回2回目。
前回2階席後方から観た際、最前列席で優雅に食事し観ている人達をみてワイキキはこうでなくては！ 次回はリベンジ？！あそこに座って観よう！と決め、今回VIP待遇の舞台裏まで見るツアーに思い切って奮発し参加しました。
このツアーに参加したのは4組のグループでした。まずはVIPルームで待機。フリードリンクや美味しいツマミが数多くあり大満足！
暫くするとレディガガが来てくれて個々の写真撮影。それから片言の日本語が話せるマネージャーが10分程度舞台裏をゆっくり歩きながら小道具・大道具などを見せてもらい説明を聞きました。舞台に立ち客席を見て自分がプレスリー、マイケルになった気分で最高！
最前列の客席に座ってフルコースディナー。まずまず美味しかったかな！
いよいよショーの始まり、やはり最前列は2階席から観るのとは大違い！汗までも見えるほど近い。何度も目が合い、もう最高！ 妻ものりのりでテンションMAX！思い切って奮発して良かった‼️大変喜んでもらいました。
せっかくハワイにエンジョイしに来たのだから、特にエルビス、マイケル世代のご夫婦にはお薦めです。
奥様にビックリプレゼントとしていかがですか‼️

I previously enjoyed the Polynesian Cultural Center, but this time, we had a wedding in Waikiki with a large group of 12 people. We were able to see the luau at the nearby Hilton Village, and my new mother-in-law was truly thrilled to see it for the first time. It was really great. Requesting the premium seats was the right choice. Thank you very much.

以前、ポリネシアン文化センターで鑑賞しましたが！今回はウェディングも兼ねてのワイキキで、12人と人数も多く近場のヒルトンビレッジでルアウを見ることができ、初めて見たお嫁ちゃんのお母様が大感激しておられ　ホントにヨカッタです。
プレミアムシートをお願いして　正解でした。有難うございました。

I was amazed by the blueness and clarity of the sea, which exceeded my expectations. The hamburger for lunch was also exquisite, and it was a tour where I could experience the crew's cheerfulness and kindness.

想像以上の海の青さ、透明度に感動しました。ランチのハンバーガーも絶品で、クルーの陽気さ優しさにも触れられるツアーでした。

I participated in "Rock-a-Flash Show" by Legends in Concert Waikiki (inside the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center) / ☆Members Only Monitor Tour☆ / Green Room Dinner & Show. I am very satisfied with the high-quality show. Here are the details.

First, while enjoying champagne in the VIP room, Elvis came in and took a commemorative photo with us. After that, we had a backstage tour led by a guide who resembled Ebizo, and he explained everything in English, making it easy for us Japanese to understand without feeling nervous. After detailed explanations of the dressing room, lighting, and backstage, we were guided to a table in front of the stage for dinner. The meat was tender, and the shrimp was delicious, leaving us very satisfied.

Although it was a dinner show, Elvis was the first to appear. We could understand the feeling of when he first visited Hawaii through his costume, and even for those of us who are not from that generation, we could appreciate his high level of skill. After that, Lady Gaga made a surprise appearance. Her dance was impressive, but her piano performance and humorous act were very easy for the older audience to understand, creating a sense of unity in the venue. When Michael appeared at the end, the venue erupted with his overwhelming dance skills and singing voice. We were captivated for several minutes by his perfectly recreated dance performance. Being able to see his performance in Hawaii was a precious memory during our seven-day stay, truly living up to the name "King of Pop."

After the show, there was a photo opportunity with all the performers, and we had time for autographs and conversations, which is another reason I recommend this experience. In addition to the first-class performances of the main stars, the local performers dancing hula and the fire dance skills were uniquely Hawaiian and made for a very valuable experience.

I felt that this high-quality show could be enjoyed even by those who do not know Elvis or Michael in real-time. Thank you for the enjoyable time in Hawaii. I would like to visit again on my next trip to Hawaii.

　今回ロック・ア・フラショー by レジェンド・イン・コンサート・ワイキキ （ロイヤル・ハワイアン・ショッピングセンター内） / ☆会員様限定モニターツアー☆／グリーン・ルーム・ディナー＆ショー に参加して来ました。
　完成度の高いショーに大満足しております。以下が詳細になります。最初にVIPルームでシャンパンを頂いていたら、エルビスさんがVIPルームに来て記念撮影してくれました。その後海老蔵似の案内人によりバックステージの見学しましたが、英語で丁寧に説明してくれたため、日本人の我々にも分かり易く、とても慣れた感じで緊張することなく理解すること出来ました。控え室、ライティング、ステージ裏を細かく説明頂いた後、ステージ前のテーブルに案内されて食事を頂きました。お肉も柔らかく、海老も美味しく大満足でした。
ディナーショーですが、最初に登場したのがエルビスでした。ハワイを初めて訪れた当時の感じが衣装からも理解ができ、世代では無い私達にも彼の技術の高さは理解出来ました。その後は、レディガガがサプライズな演出での登場。ダンスも印象的でしたがピアノ演奏と非常にユーモアのあるパフォーマンスには年配に方々にも非常に分かり易く、会場が一体となっておりました。最後にマイケルが登場した際には、圧倒的なダンス力と歌声で会場は大盛り上がり。完全に再現されたダンスパフォーマンスに数分間見入ってしまいました。まさにKING　OF　POPという名に恥じない彼のパフォーマンスをハワイで観れた事は７日間の滞在の中でも貴重な思い出となりました。ショー終了後にはパフォーマー全員との写真撮影があり、サインは勿論、会話もする時間を設けて頂けるため、間近で彼らに接する事が出来るのもお勧めする理由です。又、主役の方々の一流のパフォーマンスは勿論でしたが、周りでフラを踊っている現地パフォーマーの華やかさや、ファイヤーダンスの技術はハワイならではで大変貴重な経験となりました。
　リアルタイムでエルビスやマイケルを知らない方でも必ず満喫することが出来る完成度の高いショーだと感じました。この度は、ハワイでの楽しい時間をありがとうございました。またハワイ旅行の際には行って見たいと思います。

We had a fantastic time and a great meal. The entertainment was also great. I would recommend this to anyone - couples or famalies.

My grandmother and my 4-year-old son participated. I thought he would be scared, but he wasn't scared at all. I was also impressed that they were regular horses, not ponies.

During our riding time, we were able to play at the ranch, so we were never bored.

おばあちゃんと、4歳の息子が参加しました。
怖がるかと思いきや全く怖がることありませんでした。
ポニーなどではなく、普通の馬だったことにも感動でした。

私たちの乗馬の時間の間も牧場で遊ぶことができて退屈することはありませんでした。

I went with my 11-year-old and 8-year-old sons. It took about 2 hours to arrive by bus. The horseback riding was amazing for our first time. It was all in English, but I was able to understand. The staff were very polite and kind. I think I will go again when I visit Hawaii.

11歳8歳の息子と一緒に行ってきました。
バスで2時間位で到着でした。
初めての乗馬最高でした。
英語オンリーでしたが、理解できました。
とても丁寧で優しいスタッフの方たちでした。
またハワイ行く時は行くと思います。

I participated in a morning-only tour! Both my friend and I were not good at diving, so we were nervous until the day of the tour. We were able to see several natural sea turtles from the boat, which got us excited. Even without snorkeling, we could play around in the nearby shallow waters, and I’m really glad we joined! I’m very satisfied. Above all, the crew members were kind and fun! I would love to participate again.

午前中のみのツアーに参加しました！友人も私も潜るのは苦手でしたので、当日までドキドキしていました。船上から天然のウミガメを何匹も見ることが出来、テンションがあがり、シュノーケリングをしなくても、近くの浅瀬で2人でチャプチャプ遊ぶことが出来、参加して良かったです！大満足です。なんといっても、クルーの方々が親切でかつ楽しかったです！また参加したいです。

We went out to the middle of the sea on a small boat and were able to walk in the shallow water. There was a Japanese guide, so we enjoyed listening to explanations in Japanese. For lunch, we had hamburgers made by the captain, which we assembled ourselves with bread and vegetables, along with boiled beans.

小さい船で海の真ん中まで行って、浅いところで海水に入って歩くこともできました。日本人ガイドさんもいたので、日本語で解説など聞けて楽しめました。ランチは船長さんが焼いてくれたハンバーグをパンと野菜など自分で挟んで食べるハンバーガーと煮豆など。

I went on the 30th of December. My evaluation is... well, not much to say. The sandbar had beautiful scenery and clear water, which was wonderful, but the lunch BBQ was not what I expected. Contrary to my expectations, it was just a single hamburger. At this price, it's quite expensive.

During the trip, it started to rain, and everyone had to run to the bus, which was far away. It was unfortunate for those with children. I wish the bus could come closer. This tour includes tips, but when we got off the boat, they still asked for tips voluntarily, which left me feeling unsatisfied with the tour overall. However, I was satisfied with the sandbar itself.

年末の30日に行きました。評価は・・ん－なんとも。
サンドバーは景色も海も綺麗ですばらしかったのですが、お昼ＢＢＱランチではありません。
予想とは違って、ハンバーガー1個でした。このお値段では高いです。
途中、雨が降ってしまいバスまで皆走って行きましたが、そのバスが遠く子供さん連れの方などお気の毒でした。もっと近くまで来てくれればいいのに。
このツアーはチップも込みなのですが、船を降りるとき任意でチップも要求されあまり満足できないツアーでしたね。サンドバー自体は満足です。

I joined to see the filming locations of Jurassic Park. I enjoyed the wonderful nature during the bus ride and the driver's humorous commentary.

ジュラシックパークのロケ地を見たくて参加しました。バスでの移動の間に見る自然の素晴らしさと運転手さんのユーモアあふれるガイド楽しかったです。

I go to Hawaii every year, but this was my first time signing up for this dinner show. After checking in at 6 PM, I was guided to the green room, feeling like a VIP.

There, I saw a Lady Gaga impersonator who looked stunning in a bubble-themed costume. After taking a photo with her, three waiters offered us welcome drinks, appetizers, and a fruit platter, and we toasted on a luxurious sofa!

Next, we were shown the star's dressing room and backstage. The guide spoke in English but mixed in some broken Japanese while explaining the stage setup, and we even got to take photos on stage.

As for the meal, we were seated at the front VIP table, and the portions were just right and delicious, featuring lobster, steak, salmon, truffle mashed potatoes, and fondant chocolate.

After the meal, an Elvis impersonator made his entrance. During the first song, he came down to the audience and presented leis to women, greeting them with kisses. The ladies were squealing with excitement.

Next, Lady Gaga appeared, captivating the audience with her dance and sultry outfit.

The highlight was definitely Michael Jackson. There were many women shouting "Michael! Michael!"

Finally, the show concluded with everyone singing "We Are the World," which was very moving.

After the show, we had the opportunity to take commemorative photos with the stars at the exit. MJ was the most popular, and we lined up in a long queue to take pictures. Even up close, he looked just like him!

The impersonators were not only similar in appearance but also sang beautifully live. It was my first experience, but I definitely think this tour is highly recommended.

　毎年ハワイに行っていますが、初めて今回のディナーショーに申し込みました。１８時に受付を済ませると、VIP待遇を受けているような雰囲気でグリーン・ルームに案内されました。
　すると、そこにはレディーガガのそっくりさんが(*^^)v。。。。シャボン玉の衣装をまとってとても綺麗でした。ガガと写真撮影をした後、３人のウェイターさんからウェルカムドリンク、オードブル、フルーツ盛り合わせを進められ、豪華なソファーで乾杯！
　次にスターの控室やバックステージの案内です。英語ですが片言の日本語を交えて舞台装置の説明があり、実際に舞台の上で写真を撮ってもらいました。
　食事ですが、一番前のVIPテーブルに案内され、ロブスター、ステーキ、サーモン、トリフ入りマッシュポテト、フォンダンショコラなどボリュームも丁度で美味しかったです。
　食事が終わると、まずはプレスリーのソックリさんが登場。最初の歌で観客席に降りてきて女性に「レイ」をプレゼントして、挨拶のキスをしていました。女性陣のキャーという声が響いていました。
　次は、ガガが登場。ダンスと色っぽい衣装で観客を魅了していました。
　やっぱり盛り上がるのは、マイケルジャクソンでした。「マイケル×２」と叫んでいる、おばさんがたくさんいました。
　最後に、全員揃ってWe are the worldの合唱でのフィナーレは、感動的でした。
　ショーが終わると出口でスターとの記念写真撮影ができました。こちらもMJが一番人気長で蛇の列に並んで撮りました。近くで見てもやっぱりそっくりでした(^○^)
　そっくりさんは顔だけでなく歌もそっくりで生歌でとても歌が上手でした。初めての体験でしたが、絶対おすすめのツアーだと思います。

I attended with my mother and my 5-month-old daughter. The food was very delicious, and the show was just the right length, so I was very satisfied. However, the price was a bit high. The fire show was shorter than I expected. If you only want to see the hula, you can watch it for free somewhere else and have a meal at another place. A high-quality all-you-can-eat dinner while watching a show outdoors is luxurious and has a nice atmosphere, which might be great for couples. Small children might get bored, be scared, or end up staying up too late.

母と5ヶ月の娘と参加。
お料理がとても美味しく、ショーもちょうどいい長さでとても満足。
ただお値段が少し高いかな。
ファイアーショーは期待より短め。
フラだけでいいなら、無料で観れる所で観て、
食事もどこかで食べるのも手。
質のいい食べ放題を、夜の外でショーを見ながら…は、贅沢で雰囲気も良いのでカップルにはいいかも。
小さな子供は飽きちゃったり怖がったり寝るのが遅くなっちゃったりするかも。

I enjoyed the show as it progressed while interacting with the audience. The food was also delicious. They took photos and later offered them for sale, but the total cost was $50, which felt quite expensive.

お客さんとコンタクトをとりながら、ショーを進める感じで、楽しめました。
食事も美味しかったです。
写真を撮ってくれて、後で売りにくるのですが、それは全部で50$と高額でした。

As expected and stated...can't ask for more from a tour operator. Show itself was not as good as Polynesian Village main stage show but buffet was 1000 times better and the Hilton show (as a buffet show) was far superior. You'll need to see the Poly Village to see the various cultural elements but save the luau for this one.

Well worth the money. I love the food. Everybody was very courtious and helped every way they could. All the staff was so helpful to us. My fiance is in wheelchair and they helped in every possible way. We got to have captain help us up to top floor to see fireworks. What an experience I couldn't tell u anything bad about this. They let u smoke on top of ship which is a good nerve helper. I would totally do it again
