Oahu
Súper recommended, the Chief is a naturally funny person in a very sane way. He talked about family and tge importance of it, also shared some info about different Polynesian Islands. ❤️
The experience from the beginning to the end was immaculate. The food was great! The show was hilarious and very entertaining! The lei they greet you with is beautiful and handmade just for you! The Mai Tai? GREAT! 10/10 recommend going and seeing Chief’s Luau if you are looking into doing a luau. You and whoever you’re with will love it!
Amazing views and customer service. Would definitely do it again.
We had a great time, celebrated our anniversary! The family that hosted the luau was wonderful and we were impressed with every aspect of the luau. If you are staying on Waikiki beach, be prepared for an hour drive to get there. We didn’t account for that length of time so we didn’t get to appreciate the hiking available beforehand.
We have always wanted to take a dinner cruise, and very pleased we chose this one. Great time, the singer was very nice. Entertainment was good.
food was served right away and was very good.
Overall we would choose this cruise again.
I sat towards the center tables to the left. I couldnt see anything because the performers sit too low on the stage. Also many people in the front seats (as if they already not happy enough with their view) would stand up and block our view. I missed the fire show. :(
I booked this activity for 24 of my friends and family so that we could hang out and do something fun after my wedding. The whole day was so great! The crew members were fun and helpful! Everyone in my group enjoyed the day. When I got stung by a Man-O-War, which I was warned about, the crew helped me immediately and I still had the best time!
This is a fun and laid-back way to get great views of the island. Mix of relaxed sailing and hitting some waves. Fireworks ar the end are exciting. Food and drinks are OK, not a ton of options, but the crew takes amazing care of you!
Crew was awesome, food was good, great all around experience
I had an AMAZING time on this island food tour! I’m so glad I chose this tour since we had a small group of 5 and had a blast. Jackson was a GREAT tour guide-very funny, knowledgeable, and entertaining. He told us lots of stories about the stops we visited, local background information, and gave good restaurant recommendations. Best stops were the macadamia nut farm and Fumi’s shrimp truck. I only wish we had made extra stops for musubi, poke, or Ted’s Bakery but overall I enjoyed myself and I wasn’t too full. I recommend this tour if you're looking to visit the North Shore and sample yummy food along the way. Thank you Jackson for a WONDERFUL day trip :)
This was my husband and my first time in Hawaii and we booked this sunset dinner cruise to celebrate our honeymoon. We were amazed by the way we were received, we booked the 5 course meal package which was to die for. Their food is amazing! Going up to the dock of the boat and watching the sunset was the Cherry on top. We got amazing pictures and the atmosphere was perfect. Then we came back inside to enjoy watching the dancers perform. It was a perfect and relaxing cruise.
It was a wonderful experience. The food was great, the staff were amazing and the whole event was awesome in general. We had a great time so we recommend this dinner cruise when you are looking for such an activity when you visit Oahu.
The tour included a variety of activities such as farm visits, jungle exploration, and movie location tours. The farm visits had very beautiful scenery. The jungle exploration was thrilling with the ups and downs of the vehicle. I think watching the movies beforehand would make the movie location tour even more moving. The lunch was also delicious. However, the disappointing point was that there was no Japanese guide at all.
農園巡り、ジャングル探検、映画ロケ地巡りツアーと盛りだくさんの内容でした。農園巡りは景色がとても美しかったです。ジャングル探検は、車の上下動が迫力ありました。映画ロケ地巡りツアーは、映画を観ておくと、より感動すると思います。ランチも美味しく頂きました。ただ残念な点は、日本語のガイドが全くなかったことです。

The view is amazing, and everyone should go in the volleyball game. It is fun!
Staff was friendly and was an amazing experience. We enjoyed every part of it. Recommend to take nausea medicine if you’re sensitive. 2 of us did get motion sick.
The host was funny and great knowledge about his own culture and traditions. It’s our first time so I wouldn’t be able to compare with other Luau. The show was about the different Polynesian cultures dance so just not only about the fire dance that gets everyone excited. It shows you the dance and the cultures. The Waimea fall is not flowing right now secondary the drought, ( last time occurred in 1992) so my family was little disappointed that couldn’t see the fall and swim in the pond. Look at bright side, this doesn’t happen all the time and I got to see a waterfall without water. Wished there was some warning ahead and I would have planned differently. Otherwise it was still a nice trail for family to walk.
It is a lot of fun, but make sure you apply sunscreen to every inch of your body to avoid sunburn . Sunburn can be extremely uncomfortable
My whole family loved this luau! The fact that it also includes entry to the park is a steal; it's beautiful! Our host was very funny and personable. I loved that they have cultural activities like showing the people attending the luau how to open coconuts, and weave leaves into a headband. The food was good, and the host was giving special shoutouts to people who were celebrating things like anniversaries, graduations, etc. The people who were doing the dances did great! Even my sister that's 3 years old was super entertained. You really get a family feel at this luau; shoutout to the 9-year old kid who was doing some fire dancing as well! It was awesome and I definitely prefer giving my money here than some random resort doing shows. The vibe is 10/10!
Fun! The cheeseburger was the best.
kind of crowded when everyone is snorkeling
But overall it’s a great activity!
The show was overall good, especially the fire dance at the end. And the chief is quite talented because he needs to run the show, tell jokes and play drums.
Anyway,
This luau is inside the water park, and we use the restroom inside the water park which is a 5 minutes away from the luau place. Before the sun goes down, it’s very hot and sweaty. And we don’t have much space while seating. The experience was not pleasant.
Also, after everyone takes a picture and ready to seat down, they give u a cup of mai tai and takes one of the drink tickets. Don’t take that Mai Tai drink right away, just go to the bar section for the drinks.
And there are one thing I can’t figure it out, before the buffet starts, they showed us a roast pig and said this is gonna be one of the main course tonight. And everyone go line up for the buffet, the only dish pork-related is the pull pork which has nothing to do with the roast pig for sure. And they didn’t cut the roast pig in front of everyone. It looks like the roast pig is one of the actor for the luau.
For the price we are paying, we expect more.
This was an all day tour and we’ll worth doing the deluxe package. Wes was our driver. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Even though it rained we still got to see sights from the bus! Polynesian culture center was outstanding. I thought I was getting luau but it was a buffet. But the Breath of Life show was worth the whole day!! Outstanding!!!! Highly recommend adding this to your package!
Puntuali , cortesi , spiaggia bellissima posto fantastico puro relax po a confusione
Mr. Susumu, our guide, was amazing. He was well-informed about both the local area and Japan, and he guided us while engaging in fun conversations. The tour was enjoyable in a relaxed atmosphere from start to finish. The lunch at Tantalus Lookout was also fantastic.
ガイドのススムさん、最高でした。
現地のことも日本のこともよく知っていて、
楽しいトークを交えながらガイドしてくれました。
終始和やかな雰囲気でツアーを楽しめました。
タンタラスの丘でのランチも最高でした。

Vicky our tour guide was awesome, knowledgable and managed to ensure we had an amazing time visiting different areas and also rearranging stops if other activities were unavailable due to weather . Coming from England meant I have to put faith in other peoples reviews of the circle island tours and 100% no regrets. Loves every minute
LOVED our experience. Everything was amazing! Due to no rainfall/drought the waterfall wasn’t flowing but the views were still Beautiful!
The weather was nice, we played beach volleyball at the sandbar, and we saw many sea turtles. Snorkeling was great too, as we saw a lot of fish, and the hamburgers were delicious. The staff was friendly, and we had a great time.
お天気も良く、サンドバーでビーチバレーし、ウミガメにもたくさん会えました。シュノーケリングもたくさん魚が見れてよかったですし、ハンバーガーも美味しかった、スタッフさんもフレンドリーで楽しかったです。

Circle island tour was disappointing for the cost. This tour was more expensive compared to others that had the same stops. The waterfall stop was allotted for 2 hours, but the waterfall didn’t have water. We specifically did this tour instead of others because of the waterfall stop. We could of saved at least $80 if it was a known thing that the waterfall frequently doesn’t have water.
The driver was overall knowledgeable and kind. He did eat while talking into the mic and driving, which is distracting. All the group could concentrate on was the chewing. He also constantly tapped both the brake and gas causing a jerking motion for 10 hour straight. Thankfully no one in our group easily gets car sick.
From the moment our captain greeted us we knew this was going to be a fun cruise. The staff was wonderfully accommodating, the views/fireworks were beautiful. We would definitely do this again!
It was amazing to swim in such a beautiful sea. The hamburger for lunch was delicious, and the kids were happy too.
とてもきれいな海で思いっきり泳げて最高でした。ランチのハンバーガーも美味しくて、子どもも喜んでました。

The pre-show activities ? None of those happened.
I was really looking forward to experience their culture but NO. When we got there, we were welcomed (speech and all that) then lined up for food and drinks then the show started.
I paid for a VIP royal package expecting my experience will be smooth… The only distinction between VIP and non VIP is the table arrangement and priority line for food but doesn’t apply if you wanna get drinks… which was very inconvenient.
Bottom line, I didn’t get my money’s worth.
Hope this helps.
