Kualoa Ranch is clearly the best choice for outdoor adventures in Oahu. So much fun from start to finish! The farm, jungle, and movie locations tours were spectacular. Mahalo

The fun really starts when you get on the nice air conditioned bus. Our host on the bus was hilarious all the way to our destination. The show is in a wetnwild but honestly I forgot about half way to the beginning of the show. The food was good and the dancers were better. The chief was also a funny man and although you do get this amazing entertainment, you also get a little bit of history of the people of the islands. Overall it was a great show. We even got a souvenir

Although it was rainy at Kualoa, the weather here was great, and the staff were wonderful too. We were able to see many sea turtles, and I'm grateful to the staff.

クアロアは雨でしたが、こちらは天気も良く最高（スタッフも）でした。ウミガメも沢山見られてスタッフに感謝です。

I participated with my daughter! The Japanese staff provided explanations, which made us feel at ease. We also took a lot of photos! The lunch included delicious hamburgers.

We were able to see sea turtles, and the sandbar was very beautiful! My 10-year-old daughter had her first snorkeling experience, and she had no problems at all. She was amazed to see so many fish during her first snorkeling adventure!

One downside was that it was quite windy, and we felt a bit cold. If you participate, it might be a good idea to bring an extra towel or jacket just in case.

娘と二人で参加！
日本人のスタッフさんが、説明等をしてくれたので安心でした。写真も沢山撮って頂きました！ランチも美味しいハンバーガーを頂きました。

ウミガメも見れましたし、サンドバーもとても綺麗！
スノーケリングは、10歳の娘が初体験でしたが、全く問題なく、初めてのスノーケリングで沢山の魚を見れて、感動していました！

一つ残念なのは、かなり風が強くて寒さを感じました。
参加される時は、念のため、タオルや上着は、もう一枚プラスでも良いかもしれません。

I was scheduled to be picked up in front of DFS at 9:25 AM (the van arrived more than 10 minutes late). After that, we went around several hotels in the Waikiki area, including the Marriott, and for some reason, at 10:25 AM, I was taken to a travel agency office just a minute's walk from DFS, where I was shown souvenirs.

I felt there was absolutely no need to stop by the office, and if they really wanted to make a stop there, it would have been better to gather everyone at the office at 10:25 AM instead. If they are considering Japanese tourists as well, I think they should improve the logistics in that regard.

Visiting Manoa Falls and Tantalus was worthwhile, and the pastrami for lunch was delicious. However, since I wasted an hour in the morning, it left a very negative impression of the tour.

9時25分にDFS前でピック予定(10分以上遅れてバンが到着)、その後ワイキキ中心部のマリオット等いくつかホテルを周り、なぜか10時25分にはDFSから徒歩1分の旅行会社オフィスなるところに連れて行かれてお土産を見させられました。
オフィスに寄る必要を全く感じなかったですし、どうしてもオフィスに寄らせたいのであれば、そこに10時25分集合でよかったのではないでしょうか。
日本人も対象に考えられているのであれば、その辺りのロジはきちんとした方がいいと思います。

マノアの滝とタンタラスの丘自体は行って良かったです、ランチのパストラミも美味しかったです。
しかし朝から1時間無駄にされたので、幸先悪く非常に印象の悪いツアーとなってしまいました。

We had an enjoyable day out. The weather wasn’t very favourable but the team still did an outstanding job. Lunch was cooked fresh and was very nice. We didn’t snorkel but looks like all had a great time.
The only thing I would change is we had 2 boats tied together and it made for a lot of flippers in the water, looked very crowded around the reef. I’m saying that, the team always kept their eyes on the job and communicated together at all times.
Great job done by all.

I participated in a buffet and show tour.
I was satisfied with both the quality and quantity of the food.
The show after the meal had comfortable seating, and I enjoyed it very much.

ビュッフェとショーのツアーに参加しました。
料理の質も量も満足です。
食事後のショーは座席もゆったりとして、非常に楽しめました。

Food was great but the show was even better! Great time!

The wait time for the meal was too long, so I left without seeing the show. I don't think I'll go again, and I wouldn't recommend it to others.

食事の待ち時間が長すぎて、ショーをみずに帰りました。二度と行かないと思いますし、他の人におすすめもしません

2 thumbs up. Crew was knowledgeable and made it a fun day.

The sandbar was cloudy with occasional showers, making it not very beautiful, and it was cold with rainy weather. The snorkeling was a bit murky, and I didn't see many fish. The sixth day had bad weather, which was a bit disappointing, but the crew did their best to keep us entertained.

サンドバーも曇り時々シャワーであまりきれい見えず、寒くて雨模様。スノーケリングも少し濁りがあり余り魚に会えなかった。6日目が悪天候、少し残念ですがクルーの方は、一生懸命楽しませてくれました。

You can only go to the sandbar if you join the tour, and there are no tours on Sundays, so my husband, who works on weekdays, couldn't join and I went alone. (By the way, most of the others were couples, so it felt a bit lonely!)

However, on the day of the tour, it was drizzling and overcast from the morning. The scenery was far from what you see in the photos; everything was gray. There's nothing you can do about the weather, so I suppose we can only hope for good weather.

Even though I participated alone, I was able to get explanations and practice for snorkeling at the sandbar. They provided explanations in both English and Japanese, so even if your English isn't great, you can feel at ease.

The hamburger for lunch was very delicious on the boat. The snorkeling in the second half wasn't very clear due to the bad weather, but I did see some fish.

However, it was really cold after getting out, and I was shivering. I had hot cocoa on the boat, but it didn't warm me up much. On the bus ride back, I was still in my wet swimsuit with just a cover-up, and the bus air conditioning was quite strong, making me shiver even more...

I recommend that participants try to take off as much wet clothing as possible and wear more layers for the return trip!

ツアーに参加しないとサンドバーまで行けないということと日曜日はツアーはないということで、平日は仕事だった主人は参加できず1人で参加しました。(ちなみに他のみなさんはカップルが多くてちょっと寂しい〜！)
しかし当日は朝からずっと霧雨の曇天。
写真のような景色とは程遠く、全部グレーでした。天候に左右されるのは致し方ないですから、こればかりは良い天気を祈るしかないかと思います。
1人参加でしたがサンドバーの時にシュノーケリングの説明と練習をさせてもらえます。英語での説明と日本語での説明をして下さるので英語がイマイチでも安心です。
ランチのハンバーガーは船上でとても美味しくいただきました。
後半のシュノーケリングも天候が悪かったので視界はあまり良くありませんでしたがお魚見えました。

ただ、とにかく上がった後寒くて寒くてガタガタ震えてしまいました。船上で熱いココアをいただきましたがなかなか温まらず。帰りのバスも濡れた水着を着たまま上に羽織って帰るのですが、これまたバスのエアコンがよくきいていてブルブル…。
参加される方は濡れたものは出来るだけ脱いで、行きよりたくさん着て帰れるようにすることをオススメします！

Since I came to Hawaii, I wanted to see a hula show at least once, and I applied because it was conveniently located within the Royal Hawaiian Center and could be enjoyed quickly. The show exceeded my expectations with its incredible intensity.

First, I was overwhelmed by the hula dancers who appeared alongside an introduction to Hawaii's history, with their toned bodies, lovely smiles, and impressive dancing skills. I felt it was worth coming to see. Then there was a rock and roll show featuring impersonators of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. This was not just an ordinary impersonation show; the level of singing and dancing was reminiscent of the originals, thrilling the audience, and it was clear there was a deep respect for the artists in their wonderful performances.

Finally, there was the fire dance. The climax was filled with excitement and tension, and the stage was enveloped in loud applause and cheers from the audience.

After the show, when we exited to the lobby, the impersonators of Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley were shaking hands and taking photos with each guest, smiling. My husband and I quickly took a photo with them as well. After being distanced from such experiences during the pandemic, it made me very happy.

ハワイに来たからにはフラのショーを一度観てみたいし、ロイヤルハワイアンセンター内で立地もいいしサクッと観れるからと一応申し込んだところ、期待を大きく上回る大迫力なショーでした。
まず出てくるハワイの歴史的な紹介と共に現れたフラダンサー達の引き締まった
肢体、素敵な笑顔、そしてダンスの上手さに圧倒され、観に来て良かったと思いました。そしてエルヴィスプレスリーと
マイケルジャクソンのそっくりさんによるロックンロールショー。単なるそっくりさんによるものまねショーとは全く違い、歌と踊りの上手さは本人を彷彿させるようなレベルの高いもので、往年のファンと思われる方達を熱狂させ、本人へのリスペクトが感じられる素晴らしい
歌とダンスだと思いました。
最後にファイアーダンス。

ショーが終わりロビーに出ると、マイケルジャクソンとエルヴィスプレスリーのそっくりさんが、お客さん一人一人と笑顔で握手を交わし一緒に写真を撮ってくれていたので私と夫も早速お二人と一緒に写真を撮って頂きました。パンデミックでこういう事から随分遠ざかっていたのでとても嬉しい気持ちになりました。

This is definitely to be done again! Was an amazing experience

The experience was great! The food was good and the service great. We did the 3-star dinner and it was so much fun. We did the private table upgrade, which is worth the extra cost. Also, pay a little extra to have them pick you up with their shuttle service. Overall, we highly recommend this experience!!!

This sandbar tour was the best choice! It was so fun! They had all the gear and all we had to do was bring ourselves! They supplied the tastiest BBQ burgers with vegan options as well! Our captain was so professional, yet funny, and extremely helpful taking pictures for us, and giving us the best sandbar adventure ever! We played volleyball, snorkeled, and enjoyed cruising around the sandbar. I can't wait to go again!

Mahalo nui loa!

We are a couple who loves Hawaii. This was our sixth trip to Hawaii, and we finally participated in this show that we had been curious about. We enjoyed hula dancing and fire dancing, and we were thrilled to see Elvis and Michael, which is a treat for our generation.

The hula dancers were always smiling and seemed to be having fun, dancing not only to Hawaiian melodies but also to upbeat rock tunes. The collaboration with Presley and Michael was fantastic. The dancers' quick costume changes were impressive as well. The fire dance was thrilling and left us in awe.

I initially thought that Elvis and Michael would just be impersonators, but their appearance and dance reminded us of the real deal. And their singing was incredible! We had so much fun, feeling like we were at a genuine show. To top it off, they even came down to the audience and shook hands with us.

Since there are no reserved seats, I recommend arriving early. Photos and videos are allowed as long as there are no flashes. There were also clips from Elvis and Michael's performances in Hawaii. I'm really glad I got to see this show!

Our whole family of 7 enjoyed the Rock A Hula show

We visited Hawaii for our honeymoon. I wanted to see dolphins in the dream destination of Hawaii, so I joined this tour. Although it was an early start, we were lucky enough to encounter not only dolphins but also whales on this tour. I was also thrilled to see sea turtles. The staff were very kind, and there were Japanese-speaking staff members, which made me feel at ease. During snorkeling, I was able to relax and see colorful fish in the beautiful sea. The slide from the boat was also fun. On the way back, we got to see a hula dance, which became a wonderful memory. For those worried about seasickness, I recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance. If you forget, you can also purchase a motion sickness band that is said to be effective on the bus ride there.

新婚旅行で訪れたハワイ。憧れのハワイでイルカも見たいと思い、こちらのツアーに参加しました。
早起きでしたが参加したこのツアーではイルカだけでなく運良くクジラにも出会えることができました。また、ホヌも見れることができとても興奮しました。スタッフの方々もとても親切で日本語対応スタッフもいるので安心して参加できました。シュノーケルでは綺麗な海でゆったりと色鮮やかな魚たちも見ることができました。また、船からの滑り台も楽しかったです。帰りの船上ではフラダンスも見ることができ最高の思い出になりました。船酔いが心配な方はあらかじめ酔い止めを飲んでいくことをお勧めします。忘れた場合は、行きのバスの中で、
酔い止めに効くと言われる酔い止めバンドを購入することもできます。

The elegant hula dance began, and I was captivated by the Hawaiian melodies. I was also enchanted by the songs and dances accompanied by footage of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. The final fire dance was particularly powerful and amazing. The theater was spacious and beautiful, and the staff's guidance was attentive. It rained all day, so I couldn't go anywhere, but I was glad to enjoy the two-hour evening show. After it ended, many audience members lined up for photos with the cast.

優雅なフラダンスから始まり、ハワイアンメロディにうっとりしました。そしてエルビスプレスリー、マイケルジャクソンの映像と共に歌やダンスに魅了されました。特に最後のファイヤーダンスは迫力があり、素晴らしかったです。広く綺麗な劇場でスタッフの案内も丁寧でした。この日は朝から雨で、どこにも出掛ける事が出来なかったのですが、夜のショーをたっぷり２時間楽しめて良かったです。終了後、キャストとの写真撮影にもたくさんの観客が並んでいました。

This was an outstanding hula show filled with excitement and passion! The dancers were energetics and embodied the Hawaiian spirit. The fire dancer was flawless, and absolutely impressive.
We loved how we also got the personal touch as the dancers came into the audience during the show and we could take photos with the dancers after the show as well. Certainly recommend this!

We had a great time, the food was delicious and the show was outstanding. We even got to share in celebrating a wedding.As usual such a great dinner cruise, thanks.

The staff included Japanese speakers, so they provided explanations not only in English but also in Japanese, which made me feel comfortable participating. I was able to see whales and pilot whales, and during snorkeling, I encountered a variety of colorful fish. I had a very enjoyable time, and it was a great experience.

日本人スタッフの方がいるので
英語だけではなく日本語での説明をしてくださり
安心して参加出来ました。
鯨やゴンドウイルカも見ることが出来たし

とても楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来て
良い経験になりました。

I went to Hawaii for the first time. I wanted to see local hula and fire dancing, so I researched and found this show that caught my eye.

Regarding the venue, when I actually went there, I found the area to be very lively and safe, which made me feel comfortable heading there. The access was also great since it was right in front of the Waikiki Shopping Center, where the Waikiki Trolley bus departs. Although the show started at night, I was able to spend the time before it just browsing nearby shops, and it flew by.

When the show began, it started with the history of hula dancing, and I was able to see various costumes and dresses. After the hula, the rock show started. The performances of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson had the audience in a frenzy. I was able to enjoy the songs I knew and really got into it. I think it's highly recommended for fans. There were also some enthusiastic Michael Jackson fans from overseas who were very excited during the show.

After the rock show, there was a fire dance performance, which had many breathtaking moments that kept my heart racing the whole time.

From start to finish, experiencing it live allowed me to enjoy an incredibly fun time. Regarding infection control measures, there was hand sanitizer available, but wearing masks was not particularly necessary, and we could also cheer during the show. There were no specific announcements about social distancing or avoiding crowded places, but there was enough space between seats, so I think it was possible to maintain distance at one's discretion.

For those planning to attend, it might be a good idea to check in advance which seating area to choose, as it can be a bit confusing. Also, since the show ends after 9 PM, I felt a bit uneasy walking back in areas with fewer people. Knowing a route that takes you along main streets in advance can help you enjoy the after-show atmosphere with peace of mind.

If you go to Hawaii, I definitely recommend checking it out!

初めてハワイに行きました。そこで現地のフラダンスやファイアーダンスを見たいと思い調べてみてこちらのショーが目に止まりました。
会場に関してですが、実際に現地に行ってみると、会場近くは大変栄えており治安も良く安心して向かうことができました。ワイキキトロリーバスの発着駅のワイキキショッピングセンターの目の前なのもあってアクセスもすごくよかったです。また、ショーの時間は夜でしたがそれまでの時間は近くのお店を見ているだけであっという間に過ごすことができました。
ショーが始まってみると歴史とともにフラダンスが始まり様々な衣装、ドレスを見ることが出来ました。フラダンスが終わると次にロックショーが始まりました。エルビスプレスリーとマイケルジャクソンのショーが始まり周りは大熱狂でした。私も知っている曲ではすごくノリノリで楽しむことが出来ました。ファンの方はすごくおすすめかと思います。海外の方でマイケルジャクソンの熱いファンの方がおり、ショー中も大興奮しておりました。
ロックショー後はファイヤーダンスの演出でしたが見ていてこちらが息を呑むような瞬間も多くずっとハラハラドキドキが止まりませんでした。
最初から最後まで現地で見ることでライブ感を味わうことが出来、最高に楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来ました。
感染症対策に関してですが消毒液はありましたがマスクの着用は特に必要なく、またショー中の声出しもできました。
ソーシャルディスタンス、三密を避けたようなアナウンスは特にありませんでしたが席にはゆとりがあったので自身の判断で距離を取ることは可能かと思います。
これから参加する人にアドバイスですが、どのエリアの席を座っていいのか分かりにくいので事前に確認をしておくといいかと思います。また、ショーの後についてですが、ショーの終わる時間が21時過ぎなのもあり帰り道で人通りが少ないところは少々危険に感じました。大通りで帰れるルートを事前に把握しておくと安心してショー後も余韻を楽しんことが出来ると思います。
ハワイに行く際はぜひ行ってみてください。

I have a call from there office they told me there tour guy was no show and they canceled don’t make the same mistake I did go a different way

This was a great evening on our trip! The food was really great and the entertainment topped off the evening!

It was a condition with occasional light rain, but the musicians were truly professionals and entertained us well. Families, groups, and couples gathered in a casual atmosphere in an open space. Cheers to the celebration group with a birthday lady! The two local elementary school girls who started dancing to the music were adorable. The musicians kept the energy high with lively music and engaging talk. The food exceeded my expectations. The meat was excellent, and although I thought the garlic and smoked salt seasoned mashed potatoes were a bit too much, they were so delicious that I ended up eating quite a bit. There were supposed to be 2-3 types of desserts, but for some reason, two "pineapple cream brûlées" were served. However, a person who seemed to be the manager passed by with a smile and said, "That's a delicious and favorite dessert!" I actually wanted to avoid it because it looked the most voluminous, but once I tried it, the part scooped out of the pineapple was filled with custard cream brûlée, making it a "great choice" dessert. It was a good value for enjoying both music and food. I would love to visit again.

時々､雨がぱらつくコンディションでしたが、ミュージシャンの方もさすがにプロで楽しませてくれました。家族連れやグループ、カップルなどが集い、カジュアルな雰囲気で開放的なスペースです。バースディのご婦人がいるお祝いグループにも、エール！音楽に合わせて踊り出した地元の小学生の女の子2人組は可愛かった～。ミュージシャンの方はさらにノリノリになるような音楽＆トークで盛り上げていました。お食事も期待以上でした。お肉も◎、付け合わせのマッシュポテトがガーリックとスモークソルトでの味付けで量が多いな～と思いつつも、美味しくてけっこう食べてしまいました。デザートは2～3種類あったはずなのに何故か「パイナップルクリームブリュレ」が2つサーブされました。が、マネージャーさんらしい人が「それは美味しくてお気に入りのデザート！」と通りすがりに笑顔。本当は一番ボリュームがありそうで避けたかったのですが、これも食べたらパイナップルをくり抜いた部分にカスタードクリームブリュレだったので「大正解」のスイーツでした。音楽とお食事が両方楽しめてコスパは良かったです。また、訪れたいです。

This is a tour I will remember for the rest of my life. I have never been touched by an experience like visiting the Arizona Memorial!! It left me in awe. I also enjoyed the USS Missouri - tour guides were very knowledgeable and made the signing for the end of the war with Japan come to life. My husband is former Navy and it made the tour even more enjoyable. Loved the Bowfin Submarine and Aviation Museum also.

And our Tour Driver Lehue was OUTSTANDING!

I wanted to see the show from a good seat, so I chose the Diamond Seat. The seating arrangement was not as shown in the seating chart, which surrounded the stage; instead, it was a standard setup with the stage directly in front and tables facing it. I arrived 30 minutes before the reception, but there was already a long line. I mistakenly lined up in the Golden Seat line because I wasn't sure where to queue. It seemed that those with Diamond Seats had priority entry, and we ended up being the last to enter among the Diamond guests. Fortunately, there was an open table in the front row, almost in the center, so we were able to sit there, but please be careful not to make a mistake in the line.

Before the show, there were solo hula performances by both men and women, followed by a moment where all the guests danced a hula together. Then came the buffet. Since we could access it first from the Diamond Seats, it was nice and not crowded.

The show featured not only hula but also Tahitian, Polynesian, Maori, and fire dancing, which kept us entertained until the very end.

The Diamond Premier Seat is a bit more expensive, but I think the satisfaction level is high, so I recommend it.

良い席で見たかったのでダイヤモンドシートにしました。
席はこちらにある座席表のようにステージを囲むような配置ではなく、普通に正面にステージ、それに向かってテーブルがありました。
受付の30分前に着きましたが、既に長蛇の列でした。
しかも並ぶ所がよくわからずにゴールデンシートの列に並んでしまっていました。
ダイヤモンドシートから優先入場、それも先着順に良い席に案内されているようで、私達はダイヤモンドの中では入場が最後になってしまいました。
幸いほぼ中央の最前列テーブルに空きがあったのでそこに座れましたが、並ぶ列をお間違えの無いようにお気を付けください。

ショーの前に男女それぞれソロのフラがあり、その後、客がその場で全員で1曲フラを踊る場面がありました。
そしてブッフェ。
こちらもダイヤモンドシートから優先で取れるので混まずに良かったです。

ショーはフラのみでなく、タヒチアン、ポリネシアン、マオリ、ファイヤーダンスがあり、最後まで飽きること無く楽しめました。

ダイヤモンドプレミアシートは少しお高くなりますが満足度は高くなると思うのでおすすめです。

It was the best show, and the staff's response was excellent. The show allowed me to feel the history of Hawaii, and I really enjoyed it. The dancers' fan service was also wonderful. If you buy the photo album, you can get signatures from Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley and take pictures with them. You can also enjoy drinks, which added to the experience. It became a fantastic memory. Since I came here for my honeymoon, I would like to bring my children next time.

最高のショーと、スタッフさんの対応でした。
ショーは、ハワイの歴史が感じられて、とても楽しめました。
ダンサーさんのファンサービスも素晴らしかったです。
また写真のアルバムを買うとマイケルジャクソンとエルビスプレスリーのサインが貰えて一緒に写真を撮ってくれます。
お酒も飲めるので、そこも楽しめました。
最高の思い出になりました。
今回はハネムーンで来たので次は子供も一緒に連れてきたいと思います。
