All Reviews for Food & Dining Experiences

The food was delicious. The kids enjoyed it a lot. My child participated in a tattoo experience and got a shark drawn. They did it really well, and my child was very happy. The fire show was also amazing! The kids were super excited. Be careful with drinks when the wind blows. I wish I could have enjoyed it more if I spoke English.

食事はおいしかたです。こどももパクパクでした。タトゥーの体験に子供が参加してサメを書いてもらいました。とっても上手に書いてくれ、子供も大喜びです。ファイヤーショーも最高！子供も大興奮でした。風が吹く時には飲み物注意だよ。英語が出来たらもっと楽しめたのにな。

I thought the cultural center was very good. Our tour guide was amazing and would recommend having one. The only bad thing was not being able to take pictures during the breath of life show and no air movement. Show was great but very warm. Wish I could have taken pictures.

The weather was nice, and the sea was very calm and beautiful.

Due to the tides, the sandbar had water up to about my ankles at its shallowest, which was a bit disappointing, but it was very beautiful, and the staff took a lot of pictures for us, creating wonderful memories.

Because there were so many people snorkeling, it was more crowded with people than fish, which was a little disappointing.

Overall, I thought the staff were very fun and it was a great experience.

天候もよくとても穏やかな海できれいでした。

サンドバーは潮の関係で、一番浅くても足首ぐらいまでは水があったので少し残念でしたがとてもきれいで、スタッフの方が沢山写真を撮ってくれたりしてとてもいい思い出になりました。

シュノーケリングは人数が多い為、魚よりも人ばかりで、芋荒い状態になりました。
それだけは少し残念でした。

その他、スタッフの方もとても楽しくてとてもよかったと思います。

I had a really fun day.
The weather was also great.
I was lucky to see a pair of large manta rays.
I also saw many sea turtles.
I'm grateful for the wonderful memories.

本当に楽しい一日を過ごせました。
天候にも恵まれ^_−☆
大きなマンタのツガイも見る事が出来て
ラッキーでした。海亀も沢山 見れました。
良い思い出に感謝です。

The long-awaited sandbar was amazing. The weather was perfect, and when we landed on the island from the boat, the water was only up to my knees— the island was completely visible. It seems I was able to participate at a great time. The staff was attentive to every detail, and I had a wonderful day.

念願のサンドバー感動でした。
天候も最高で、島にボートから上陸する時は
膝したまでしか お水が無く〜
島もすっぽり浮き出てました。良い時期に参加出来た
みたいです。スタッフさん達も細かな対応が出来てて
楽しい一日を過ごせました。

Our group of 17 took the afternoon sail. The crew wants to have as much fun as their guests so they do their best to create a memorable experience. One meal, snacks, non-alcoholic drinks and complete snorkel gear is included in the cost.

There are two locations where swimming among sea turtles is likely. For $5 you can get a quart size of fish food and it is suggested to feed the fish at the last location. Divers don't mind diving to the bottom and up close to the marine life with your waterproof camera to get some amazing shots - just ask them. A photographer comes along to capture all the beautiful moments both on board and underwater. A dvd of 500+ photos of your trip for $65 is worth it.

Served during the last snorkling location, our family style lunch of kalua pork and teriyaki chicken sliders with all the trimmings was plentiful and satisfying. Alocholic drinks are $4.

Great first-time deep sea snorkling experience. Would definitely go again with these guys! Mahalo!

I participated in the VIP plan! It was so much fun from start to finish that I didn't want to leave!

There were impersonations of well-known artists and a Hawaiian show. My seat was right in the middle and up front!

It was incredibly impressive.

I want to go again next time!

VIPのプランで参加しました！
最初から最後までとても楽しく帰るのが名残惜しぃ位でした！

誰もが知ってるアーティストのモノマネやハワイアンショー。
席も真ん中で前！

迫力満点でした。

次もまた行きたい位です。

It was the most fun show in Hawaii. Michael, Elvis, and Madonna were all spot on. Michael was perfect in dance, face, appearance, and singing. Although Elvis didn't resemble him in the face, his singing and appearance were very similar, and I enjoyed it. The singer who performed "Satisfaction" was wonderful. After the show, there was a photo time, and I was thrilled to hug Madonna and take a picture! I got to know a couple from Washington sitting next to me, and we promised to meet again in Hawaii next year.

ハワイで１番楽しかったショーです。マイケル、エルビス、マドンナそっくりでした。マイケルはダンス、顔、容姿、歌全て完璧。エルビスは顔はにておりませんが歌、容姿はそっくりで楽しめました。サティスファクションを歌った歌手の方は素晴らしかったです。ショーの後フォトタイムがありマドンナとハグして写真撮影していただき感激！！隣の席にいらしたワシントンのご夫婦と知り合い、来年もハワイで会う約束をしました。

The tour guide was the most personable, knowledgable tour guides I have ever had. She took the time to explain where we were, what was special about it and answered any and all questions. Would definitely use their services again!

After the morning pickup, we traveled to Kaneohe with a somewhat suspicious tour guide. On the bus ride, we listened to his light-hearted talk (in English) filled with jokes, and soon we arrived at Kaneohe Bay. The ratio of Japanese to foreign tourists was about half and half. Those who don't understand English might feel quite anxious here (laughs).

At Kaneohe Bay, there were two boats, one for foreign tourists and one for Japanese tourists. On the Japanese boat, a beautiful Japanese lady (who seemed captivated by Hawaii and decided not to return to Japan) guided us in Japanese.

The sandbar has varying water depths depending on the time of day, so I think it's best to go during the times when the water is shallower. Additionally, one of my companions was quite prone to seasickness, but as explained, the waves in Kaneohe Bay are always calm, and we were able to finish the trip without much seasickness! Let's shout "Aloha!" loudly on the boat!

朝のピックアップ後、怪しげなオッチャンのツアコンとともにカネオヘまで移動。
往路のバスではその怪しげなオッチャンのジョークを交えた軽快なトーク（英語）を聞きながら
ほどなくカネオヘ湾に到着しました。
日本人と外国人の割合は半々ぐらいでしたね。
英語がわからない人は多分ここでめっちゃ不安になります（笑）
が、カネオヘ湾では２つ船があって、外国人輸送船と日本人輸送船に分かれ、

行くのがいいと思います。
また、同行者がかなり船酔いしやすいタイプだったのですが、
カネオヘ湾は説明のとおり常に波は穏やかで、ほとんど船酔いもせずに終えることができました！
船上では、大きな声でアローハーと叫びましょう！

The sea was beautiful and wonderful. I was glad to see sea turtles as well. Time flew by, and I wish I could have relaxed a bit longer.

海が綺麗で素敵でした。ウミガメも見れて良かったです。あっという間に時間が過ぎたので、もう少しのんびりしたかったです。

The entertainment was wonderful. The food was a disappointment. in fact, the cheaper tickets that went through the buffet had it better because they got as much as they wanted. Also, there wasn't much difference between our seats and theirs. I would do it again but would buy the cheaper tickets.

I like it, it is amazing
You should try it
You well like it also

We used it as a group of 40-60 people. There were many people from countries other than Japan, and everyone forgot their age and had fun dancing. The food was decent, but we enjoyed the tropical cocktails outdoors, which added to the Hawaiian vibe.

40－60　男女のグループで利用しました。
日本以外の国から来てる人が多くみんな年齢を忘れて踊ったりして楽しかったです。
食事はそれなりですが屋外で飲むトロピカルなカクテルもハワイらしさを楽しめました

We had a wonderful time. If you wanted to have plain good time knowing the Polynecian culture this is a must! You will be spending most of your day in a ALL IN ONE package,from activities, education, culture, music, language. I don't know about other people but there is nothing to complain about the Luau and this place, the food was good,the show was great, the evening show was spectacular! For those who expect to get drunk and expect a Las Vegas type of show, please do your self a favor go somewhere else, BUT if you wanted to have a clean entertainment and wholesome environment for you and your family and appreciate custumes,culture, pretty and handsome islanders don't think twice of going here. Several reviewers expect a Las Vegas show and almost bear all, I'm a Islander I find those reviews very insulting to the culture of our people, this is a paradise Island, so please leave your mind set behind before coming here. PCC does the best to preserve the culture and their ancestry.

We had a blast!, great food, all you can eat crab legs. great service and great show! If you're still deciding what dinner cruise you should take, here's your answer! You can't go wrong! My suggestion take this event as your grand finale of your vacation, probably on the last day of your trip. Thanks so much hawaiian activities, they added Hanauma Bay trip as a extra bonus at no cost( but you need to pay for the entrance fee)which you can not missed! My family and I had a wonderful time.

I participated at the request of my mother in her 60s.
The quality of all the artists, from past stars to Lady Gaga, was high, and since most of the songs are famous, my mother, who doesn't understand English, seemed to enjoy it very much.
She especially liked Michael Jackson and even got to take a photo after the show.
I recommend it for those who might think they've had enough of the flash show.

60代の母親の希望で参加しました。
往年のスターからレディ・ガガまでどのアーティストもクオリティが高く、
有名な曲がほとんどなので、英語がわからない母もとても楽しめたようです。
特にマイケル・ジャクソンを気に入って、終演後には写真まで撮ってもらっていました。
フラショーはもういいかなという方にはお勧めです。

The tour guide and tour of the island was outstanding. The show at the Cultural Center was very well done and enjoyable. The food was okay, but not what was expected.

The sea was truly beautiful. It wasn't very shallow, so when we got off the boat, the water was up to my thighs, and my 70-year-old mother said she was scared to go into the sea. However, one of the staff members said, "Since you came all this way, let's go to the sandbar," and he actually carried my mother there. It was so moving! Thank you very much.
The hamburgers for lunch were also delicious, as they grilled the patties on the boat.
We were able to see several sea turtles, and snorkeling was a lot of fun. There were staff members who were fluent in Japanese, so I had no worries at all.

本当に海が綺麗でした。　そんなに引いてなかったので、船から降りた時は太ももくらいまで水につかりながら、サンドバーまで歩く状態のため、70歳の母は怖がって海に入らないと言ってましたが、スタッフのお兄さんが、「せっかく来たんだからサンドバーまで行きましょう」と、なんと母をおぶって連れて行ってくれました。感動です！！　ありがとうございました。
昼食のハンバーガーも、船でパテを焼いてて、とってもおいしかったです。
海ガメも何匹も見ることができたし、シュノーケリングもとても楽しかったです。日本語堪能のスタッフがいるので、不安は全くありませんでした。

We participated in a tour from 8 to around 10 with a one-and-a-half-year-old child, and all the staff were wonderful and kind, making it a very enjoyable experience. There is a bit of distance from the boat to the sandbar, so I think it would have been helpful to have a suggestion to bring floaties for small children who can't swim (we brought our own, so it wasn't a problem, but I think having rentals available would be good). The snacks weren't very tasty, so if they were that limited, it might be better to just offer drinks and increase the variety. If the price were a bit lower, I would definitely want to participate again.

1歳半の子連れで8時から10時頃のツアーに参加しましたが、スタッフが皆さん素晴らしく優しい方たちで、とても楽しめました。船からサンドバーまでは少し距離があるので、泳げない小さな子連れには浮き輪を持ってくるような案内があっても良かったと思います（うちは持っていっていたので問題なかったですが、貸し出しがあってもいいかと思います）
スナックはあまり美味しくなかったので、あれくらいだったらドリンクだけにしてもっと種類を増やす方がいいかと。その分もう少し安ければ、また参加したいと思います。

We attended the patio buffet before the performance. The food was one of the better dinner-show meals we had in Waikiki. There was a performance by dancers during the dinner, and then the main show followed. A good time was had by all.

My wife and I participated together. The guide was very skilled in Japanese and was very considerate. However, it was disappointing that we had to carry the kayak from the shop to the beach (about 10 minutes), which was quite tiring.

妻と二人で参加しました。日本語上手なガイドさんで、とても気を遣っていただきました。ただ、カヤックをショップからビーチまで（約10分位）運んでいただけないので、かなり疲れたのが残念でした。

I participated in October 2011. I apologize for the old story. I was anxious about bringing my five-year-old twins, but thanks to Yuka (I wonder if she’s still there), everything was completely fine. The kids got so comfortable that they flew over to me while I was already in the sea. Having twins was no obstacle at all, and I’m very grateful.

2011年10月に参加しました。古い話でスミマセンが。
双子の五歳児連れで不安がありましたが、ユカさん（今もいるかな)
のおかげでまったく大丈夫。子供たちもなついて安心するあまり、

双子連れが全く障害にならず、感謝感謝。

I've been to Oahu about ten times, and since I lived there for a few months during a short language study program, I thought there wouldn't be any places I didn't know. But there were! (◎o◎；）Well, it's been about seven years since my last visit... There are sandbars in various places, so I wasn't expecting much, but it's still Hawaii! I'm super excited! The local crew is cheerful, and they took lots of photos. We quickly went snorkeling, saw some fish, ate sandwiches, and wrapped it up quickly. I guess I would get bored after about 30 minutes! In the afternoon, we could fit in other activities too, so it's a groundbreaking tour (＾－＾). However, while searching for sea turtles, I was excited until I saw two or three, but after that, I just swayed on the boat and relaxed...

オアフ島は、10回は来ていて
短期の語学留学で数カ月住んでいたのもあって
知らない場所もないかなぁと思ったら
あった！(◎o◎；）
まぁ最後に来たのも7年前くらいだし・・・
砂州は色んな所にあるので期待もしていなかったが
やっぱりハワイですな！
テンション上がりまくりまクリスティ～♪
現地のクルーの人達も明るいし
写真もバンバン撮ってくれて、さくっとシュノーケリングして
魚見て、サンドイッチ食って、さくっと終了～
まぁ、きっと30分もいたら飽きるっしょ！
午後は、他のアクティビティーも入れられるし
画期的なツアーですな（＾－＾）
ただ、ウミガメ探しは２，３匹見るまではテンション上がっていましたが
その後は、船にユラユラゆられ
マッタリしていた・・・

The sea didn't seem very beautiful, perhaps because it was cloudy. The bottom of the boat is designed as a toilet that directly flushes into the sea, right? There was something floating on the surface of the water that looked like a piece of wood, and when I tried to grab it and throw it far away, it turned out to be feces. Moreover, there were two spots floating around.

曇っていたせいか、海はあまりきれいに感じなかったです。船の底がトイレになって海に直接流すようになってるんですよね？海の表面になにか木切れのようなものが浮いていて、つかんで遠くに投げようとしたらそれはうんちでした。しかも２箇所にぷかぷか浮いていました。

A little while ago, at the end of 2011, I participated in an event where we could see fireworks from a boat.

We set sail around dusk, and there were about 20 people, I think? I had heard it was an English tour, but it was quite accommodating for Japanese speakers, so it wasn't a problem if you couldn't speak much.

The meal was served buffet-style. There were a decent variety of dishes, and I thought the food itself was tasty. I believe drinks were included for the first two.

The fireworks lasted about 15 minutes. If you imagine a Japanese fireworks festival, it might feel a bit lacking.

However, if you focus on the value of seeing fireworks from a boat, I don't think it's bad at all.

Personally, I felt my level of satisfaction was just okay.

少々前ですが、2011年末、船上から花火が見れるということで参加しました。

夕暮れ時に出向し、約20人くらいだったでしょうか？
英語ツアーと聞いていましたが、日本人慣れしており、喋れなくてもほぼ問題ありません。

お食事はブッフェ形式。
種類はそこそこあってお食事自体は美味しかったと思います。
ドリンクは確か2ドリンクまでは料金込みでした。

花火は15分ほどだったと。
日本の花火大会を想像してしまうと、やっぱり物足りなさはありましたが。

船上から花火を見えるという価値を重視すれば、すごくわるいわけではないと思います。

個人的には満足度はそこそこかなーと思いました。

- There are courses such as Cocktail & Show, Buffet & Show, and VIP Dinner & Show, but it's not just about whether food is included or the type; everything from access (entrance/timing of entry) to the viewing seats for the show is determined by the course.
- I experienced the VIP course. Thanks to the reservation through VELTRA, we enjoyed dinner and the show at a two-person table right in the front row and center (we were able to enjoy the show after dinner while drinking wine).
- The venue for the show is a relatively small theater, but the lighting, sound, and effects are all professional, and the use of multi-screens for visual effects was very interesting.
- It is fundamentally different from Japanese impersonation shows and can be enjoyed as entertainment.
- As a side note, were they from the same company? Some of the dancers from the Star of Honolulu that I attended last year were performing!
- For dining, we started with the theater's original cocktail at a separate bar, then moved to the theater for the meal: appetizer, soup, main course of filet steak and white fish meunière, dessert ice, and coffee... it was a proper full course, and I was satisfied with the taste. The OP wine and others were relatively reasonably priced, starting from $30 for a full bottle.
- A manager, who seemed to be a charming gray-haired gentleman fluent in Japanese, supported us from entry to exit.
- I would recommend this to friends visiting Hawaii!

I participated with a senior colleague from work. The staff were very friendly, and there was music playing on the boat, creating a fun atmosphere. I was expecting a BBQ on board, but it was just simple hamburgers, which was a bit disappointing. However, they were very delicious! Everyone had the chance to see dolphins and sea turtles, as we were able to enter the water twice at the designated points. The hula dancing was physically demanding, but I enjoyed the whole day. I think it would be a lot of fun to participate with a large group of friends.

会社の先輩と参加しました。
スタッフの方々がとても気さくで船上でも音楽がかかっていたりと、
楽しい雰囲気でした。
船上ではBBQと聞き、期待していましたが簡単なハンバーガーだったのが少し残念でした。とても美味しかったですが！
イルカと海亀は全員がみれるようにポイント地点では２回海に入ることができました。
体力的にフラダンスがキツかったですが一日中満喫できました。
大人数の友達と参加するととても楽しいと思いました。

I enjoyed the cruise dinner very much. Beautiful meal with a beautiful transportation to take in the view of the beautiful island.

Nice event! So much to learn!! The day goes by fast with all the fun. They have a lot of activities for all the family. The dinner was awesome, prime rib buffet. Can't wait to go back!!
