All Reviews for Food & Dining Experiences

I was able to visit various places and try a little bit of different foods, which was great. The guide provided information about the tourist spots and the surroundings, which was very helpful. The driver-guide took care of 13 people by himself, and even though I participated alone, I had a lot of fun.

色々と周れて、色々と食べれてちょっとづつの試食もありますが良かったです。
観光地や通りすがりに、ここはどんなとこだとか色々と話してくれて参考になりました。
運転の案内係さんが1人で13人を連れて回ってくれます1人参加でしたが、とても楽しく参加できました。

I’ve always wanted to go to a luau and this didn’t disappoint!! I enjoyed the food, the entertainment while we ate and the desert! My friend and I also got some hula lessons!! A huge highlight for me, I’ve always wanted to try hula dancing. After dinner we got to see the show, with performances from the 1940s up to the present! I especially liked the fire dancing. My friend and and I enjoyed this experience and I would say it was worth it! So if you’re like to have a luau experience with a rocking show, I would recommend trying this.

Highlight was the Polynesian show. Food was ok, deserts were good. Complimentary drinks were average. Purchased drinks were pricey. Overall, did not get to see much of a sunset by being busy with the food and the show. It felt more like sitting in a restaurant since the boat was moving slow and sturdy unless you come out to grab the food.

We had the most amazing night doing the luau and show. The hospitality was so beautiful, it was the best activity we did in waikiki. We travelled from New Zealand and appreciated how they sang us a maori song. The show was outstanding, we could not fault one thing. Thank you for the amazing time and showing us your beautiful culture.

Me and 3 friends came here and were blown away. The food was absolutely stunning and the entertainment was unreal. We travelled from New Zealand and were serenaded with a special maori (native language of NZ) song. The hospitality was just beautiful and the show was super fun!! Would recommend this over any other ones.

Very well organized , all personnel very friendly and knowledgeable, very intense and cultural .
buffet was great .

At the beginning of April, there are still rainy days. On the day of the tour at Kualoa Ranch, it rained all day. I was able to enjoy the bus tour to some extent. It would have been better if there had been a tour in Japanese since all the explanations were in English.

4月の初めはまだ雨の日がある。クアロアランチの当日は終日雨。
バスでのツアーのためにそれなりに楽しめました。説明はすべて英語のために日本語でのツアーがあればもっと良かった。

I love Jurassic Park and have always wanted to visit this place. It all started when the theme song began to play on the bus! It was an English tour, but I always choose English tours no matter the country, and I really enjoy the friendly atmosphere with the other international guests. The guide was also proactive in taking photos, which made me, as a solo tour participant, very happy!

This tour is a must for both movie lovers and nature enthusiasts when visiting Hawaii.

ジュラシックパーク大好きでずっと行ってみたかった場所へ
バスの中であのテーマソングが流れ始めた所からスタート！！
英語ツアーでしたが、私はどこの国でも英語ツアーにしていて周りの外人さん達の和気あいあいな雰囲気が大好きです。
ガイドさんも率先して撮影して頂き、1人ツアー参加の私には本当に嬉しかったです！

大自然と撮影地、映画好きの方にも自然好きの方にもハワイへ来たら是非参加して欲しいツアーでした。

I returned home on a flight tomorrow afternoon, and I went there the night before. The location might be hard to understand just by reading about it, but there are clear video explanations on Instagram and other platforms, so checking in advance should help you navigate smoothly.

The food had a good balance of flavor and portion size (it's a buffet, so it's up to you). I mentioned that I have allergies regarding the welcome drink, and they kindly exchanged the Mai Tai for another soft drink.

The show likely resonates differently depending on your generation and preferences, so there might be moments that appeal to me and others that appeal to you. However, I enjoyed the entire show while maintaining the initial momentum.

Here are two pieces of advice for those who will be going:
(1) Check in a bit early. We arrived around 5:10 PM, and there were already quite a few guests seated. It gets crowded close to the deadline, and joining the buffet after the time has passed can feel like you're missing out.
(2) Use the restroom before the meal time ends. The transition to the theater happens suddenly and orderly, and once seated, it’s difficult to leave (this is generally true overseas, so it’s best to go when you can rather than thinking you’ll go later).

明日はお昼の飛行機で帰国、という夜に行ってきました。
場所は文章で読むと分かりにくいですが、Instagramなどでも分かりやすく動画説明されていていますので事前チェックしておけば迷わずスムーズかと思います。
食事は程よい味と量(ビュッフェなのでご本人次第)。ウェルカムドリンクはアレルギーがあるのでとお願いしたらマイタイから別のソフトドリンクに交換していただけました。
ショーはおそらく世代や趣向によって刺さるツボが違うので、ある場面では私が、別の場面ではあなたが、というノリになるかと思いますが、最初の勢いを維持したままショー全体が進行し楽しめました。
これからいかれる方へのアドバイスとして2点。
(1)少し早めにチェックインする。我が家は17:10頃に行きましたが既に先客がそれなりに着席されていました。締切間際は混むのと、時間すぎてからビュッフェに参加するのは出遅れ感出てせっかくなのに残念です。
(2)お手洗いは食事の時間が終わる少し前までに済ませておく。
シアターへは突然かつ整然と移動することになり、着席後は離席もしにくいです(海外全般の話になるかと思いますが、後で行こうとは思わずに行ける時に行く、というのが基本)。

We did not have the dinner. We only purchased show tickets. The show was enjoyable. A mix of Hawaiian tradition with some rock and roll.

I'm glad I was able to enjoy food that can only be experienced in Hawaii. However, even though the meeting time was at 5:30 PM, we didn't start eating until around 6:15 to 6:30 PM, which was quite a wait. The food is delicious, so I recommend it for those who are patient.

It was great that the waiter communicated with us in Japanese.

The show was very entertaining, and we had good seats. The venue was cold, so it's better to bring a jacket. It was a great experience to see hula dancing from various generations. The performances, including those mimicking Elvis and Michael Jackson, got the audience excited, but for kids and younger generations like us, it wasn't very familiar, so we couldn't tell how similar they were. The kids were fast asleep. But it was really cool. I highly recommend it for people of that generation!

ハワイでしか体験できないご飯が食べられてよかったです。しかし、集合が17時30分なのに、ご飯を食べ始められたのは18時15〜30分ととても待ちました。ご飯はおいしいので気が長い方にはおすすめです。
ウェイトレスのお兄さんが日本語を交えながらコミュニケーションをとってくれてよかったです。

ショーはとても面白く、いい席で見せてもらえます。ショー会場は寒いので上着があった方がいいです。様々な年代のフラダンスを見れていい経験となりました。
レイビス？やマイケルジャクソンのモノマネで会場が盛り上がりますが、子供や若い世代の自分たちには馴染みが薄く似ているかはよくわからなかったです。子供は爆睡していました。でもとてもかっこよかったです。世代の人はとってもおすすめです！！

My parents and I had a great time. Loved that the performers were energetic. The food was great, especially the beef roast. Would go again and definitely recommend. Loved the ukelele performer, she sung a song for my parent's anniversary. It was a nice personal touch. Elvis and MJ impersonators were spot in and didn't try too hard. The fire performer was the cutest and was a nice surprise. I had the chance to learn a hula dance. Would recommend if you do not have a vip package to save your complimentary mai Tai to drink during dinner, lol I regretted not doing that. You do have the option to purchase more drinks though. I had virgin one and it was so tasty. The workers are polite and helpful. A great overall experience.

We had the best time with the Star of Honolulu. The captain was very welcoming, and the staff was first rate. Our restaurant wait person Tina, was very prompt in meeting our needs. She was friendly and efficient. The entertainment was excellent, and the food was tasty and plentiful. We sat next to a couple of other travelers and thoroughly enjoyed our conversation. I would recommend this cruise to everyone!

The captivating dance was impressive and very enjoyable. I think my satisfaction would increase even more if there were more experiences that included dance. After all, the weak yen is quite severe.

魅惑のダンスは見応えがあって、とても良かったです。もうちょっとダンスを含めて体験が多いと満足感が更に増すと思います。何せ、円安がひどいので。

I signed up for this tour to express my gratitude to my mother during our trip to Hawaii, as a son from a mother-son family.

Even though we arrived just in time for the meeting, the staff kindly guided us, and we enjoyed a welcome drink of Mai Tai. The alcohol was strong, so it really hit me due to the jet lag, but from there, we enjoyed hula dancing, a buffet, and a show while feeling great.

The staff members who performed hula during the buffet danced tirelessly, which was impressive. One of the musicians played the ukulele and sang a Teresa Teng song after realizing we were Japanese. My mother even participated in the hula dance lesson and was moved throughout the experience.

I was very excited during the show since I personally love Michael Jackson, and the girl who sang the song from Moana gave me goosebumps with her singing ability. It was truly an unforgettable experience.

At first, I hesitated to sign up, but I'm glad I did. Thank you very much.

The food was delicious, so I will upload pictures of the meals.

母息子家族の息子から母への感謝を込めてのハワイ旅行で
ハワイにきた実感を母に伝えたく今回このツアーに申し込みました。
集合時間ギリギリに到着したにも関わらず、
スタッフの方々が心よく案内してくれ、
そこからウェルカムドリンクでマイタイ飲みました。
アルコールが強いので時差ボケの体にはすごく沁みましたが、そこからフラダンス、ビュッフェ、ショーと、とっても気持ちが良い気分のまま楽しめました。
特にビュッフェ中のフラダンスのスタッフの方々は、
ずっと連続で踊りっぱなしで心配になる程必死に踊ってくれたり、ウクレレを引いてくれる方は、
僕らが日本人と分かったあとテレサテンの歌を披露、
フラダンスのレッスンにも母が参加し、母は、終始感動してました。
ショーの方も私自身マイケルジャクソンが好きなのでとても興奮しましたし、
モアナの歌を歌ってくれた女の子の歌唱力にも鳥肌。
とても忘れられない体験となりました。
最初は申し込もうか悩みましたが、
観れてよかったです。
本当にありがとうございました。

ご飯も美味しかったので画像はご飯をご飯類をアップします。

We really enjoyed our Luau dinner and Show! We were sat with other guests and started the night off with fresh pineapple and Mai Tais, which were delicious! The performers were very friendly and the food was great, including the vegan option for my wife, which was a Beyond patty and salad. The pork was great, but my favorite was the roast beef. The show was very impressive as well; their Elvis and Michael Jackson impressions were great! They also had a traditional fire-knife performer and this was very entertaining as well!

On the day of the tour, the pickup arrived on time. I shared the ride with people from Japan and likely the United States, and we listened to the explanations from our guide, who spoke fluent Japanese. We were taken to various places, including the beautiful sea that seemed to stretch endlessly, a villa owned by a celebrity, sea turtles and seals that came close to the sandy beach, and, most importantly, the food that I tried for the first time. It was a long tour of about nine hours, but it was an enjoyable experience without feeling tired.

当日は時間通りに迎えが到着。日本やおそらくアメリカからであろう人たちと同乗し日本語も流暢に話せるガイドさんの説明を聞きながらいろいろなところに連れて行ってもらいました。どこまで続く綺麗な海、有名人が所有しているという別荘、砂浜近くまで来ている海亀やアザラシ、そしてなんといっても初めて口にする食べ物。９時間ほどのロングツアーでしたが疲れることなく楽しい時間を提供してもらいました。

Very customer focused from check-in through the dinner service & when we debarked. Food was very tasty & plentiful! Would do it again especially on a Fri night when the Hilton Hotel had a wonderful fireworks display.

Excellent service food was great the staff super friendly the show was amazing my whole family and I had excellent time I will give 5 ⭐️ to veltra and the star of Honolulu for the amazing night see you soon

We enjoyed Toa Luau so much! Our children, 2 & 4, had a wonderful time as well. The cast/crew are the same people running the activities before the meal, and serving the meal, then putting on a great show - their hard work and enthusiasm is inspiring <3 I noticed their attention to detail in how smoothly the check-in, meal, and all the transitions went. Highly recommend!

Even though I was overseas, time seemed to move on as usual here. Before getting on the boat at Kaneohe Bay, we encountered a heavy rainstorm, and I thought the trip might be canceled. However, we went ahead despite the rain. My umbrella, which was meant to be a sunshade, ended up being used mainly as a rain umbrella. It was so cold that I felt the chill was more overwhelming than the rain season itself.

It was really fun to have the tour guide take pictures of us at the movie filming locations!

海外なのに、此処はあえて時間通りに進んだ
カネオヘ湾のボートに乗る前に、凄い雨にあったので、中止？かと思いきや、雨の中、決行
日傘兼用なのに、主に雨傘となり雨季なのだ〜と思ったくらいかえって寒さの方が勝った位でした

映画撮影ポイントもツアーガイドさんにも写真を撮ってもらい本当にたのしかったで〜す

Fantastic day of sightseeing the island Branndon was exceptional in telling us history of the island and the sights we saw our driver was exceptional also very adept driver. Would recommend this tour to anyone thank you for the service you supplied

I finally got to visit Manoa Falls, which I had wanted to see for a long time. I signed up for a Japanese tour, but I was the only Japanese person there. However, the guide was Japanese, and even the English explanations were very easy to understand.

The hike was quite tough, and the walking stick they lent me was very helpful. I wore long sleeves and long pants, but I was sweating a lot along the way. I wanted to take them off, but I was afraid of getting bitten by mosquitoes, so I endured it.

My shoes ended up muddy. There is a place to wash them, so you can get some of the dirt off, but they won't get completely clean, so I think it's best to wear shoes that you don't mind throwing away.

For lunch, we ate on Tantalus Hill while looking at Diamond Head and Waikiki. The view was much nicer than at night.

The sandwich was very delicious. It was from the sandwich shop next to the Starbucks in Manoa.

I'm glad I had such a fun experience.

ずっと来たいと思っていたマノア滝にやっと行けました。日本語ツアーで申し込みましたが、日本人は私のみ。ですが、ガイドの方が日本の方で英語の説明でもとてもわかりやすく私でも理解できました。
ハイキングは割とキツく、杖を貸して頂いたのがとても役に立ちました。長袖長ズボンで行きましたが、途中で汗だく。でも脱いだら蚊に刺されそうだったので我慢しました。
靴は泥まみれになります。洗う場所もあるので少しは土が落とせますが、ちゃんと綺麗にはならないので捨てても良い靴で行くと良いと思います。
ランチはタンタラスの丘でダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキを見ながら食べます。夜のタンタラスよりもずっと素敵な景色です。
サンドイッチがとても美味しかったです。
あのマノアのスタバのお隣のサンドイッチ屋さんのものでした。
楽しい経験ができて良かったです。

This was such a fun and entertaining experience. The food choices were great and did not disappoint. The staff were very attentive during the dinner. After the dinner, we went into the theater to watch the performances. We enjoyed every single performance from the traditional Hawaiian dances to the Elvis and Micheal Jackson impersonators. One of our favorite parts is how they incorporated original pictures of Hawaii during the show. We will definitely do it again!

The weather was unfortunately a bit cold, but the sandbar was beautiful, and we were greeted by sea turtles. We saw many more sea turtles afterward, and it was fun to encounter a lot of fish while snorkeling. They also ensured our safety thoroughly. The lunch was delicious as well. I am grateful to Yuki and the captain.

あいにくの天気で多少寒かったですが
それでもサンドバーは美しく、ウミガメが
出迎えてくれました。
その後も沢山のウミガメが見られ、
シュノーケリング中多くの魚と出会い楽しかったです。安全にも万全を期していただきました。
ランチも美味しかったです。
ユキさんと船長に感謝です。

I was looking forward to the activity.
Shortly after departure, we encountered a pod of dolphins!
I'm not a great swimmer, but I was able to enjoy snorkeling without any issues, and I also got to see a sea turtle!
The staff were all lively, and there were Japanese people among them, so I felt安心して楽しめました!
Thank you very much.

楽しみにしていたアクティビティ。
出港してまもなくイルカの群れに出会えました！
泳ぎは苦手ですがシュノーケリングも問題なく楽しめ、ウミガメを見ることもできました！
スタッフの方みんな賑やかで日本人の方もいたので安心して楽しめました！
ありがとうございました。

was skeptical as it shares a lot with wet n wild, however don't let that fool you as this was a way to end our trip! fabulous evening, nothing bad to say!

The show was very entertaining and the dinner buffet was amazing , the Island shows are very entertaining as well we had a remarkable time, the weather was very pleasant but the rain started right after the show was over and we got wet on our way to the bus, even that was a lot of fun .

My daughter and I had a great time climbing Diamond Head. We could go at our own pace which was awesome.
My daughter also left her hat on the van and they got back to me super quick when I emailed them and we just picked it up from their office. Fantastic customer service.
Highly recommend this tour.

Very entertaining! Great music. Great dancing. Lots of searing and such nice staff.
