Great welcome on ship, platters were waiting and salad, great entertainment and staff. The lobster was not what i am used to, so would not select this option again.Was beautiful and seeing the fireworks out in the sea was amazing. Would go again and highly recommend.

I had the best time! All three tours were so much fun and the tour guides were super helpful and had many jokes which I appreciated a lot! This is definitely an activity you should wear closed toe shoes for as there are some small/ short hikes involved and if it rains like it did for me (which was okay because it still worked out perfectly) there will be quite a bit of mud so make sure you have on a pair of sneakers/trainers so that you can enjoy it as much as I did.
The tour guides were all super sweet and helpful and they make sure you’re comfortable and make you feel like Ohana:)

Disappointed that the falls was not flowing, but the Luau was great. Learning about the hawaiian culture was interesting. The food was delicious and plentiful. The show was fabulous. You will not be disappointed.

I've done alot of activities in oahu including parasailing, snorkeling, and more, but this one was the most worth it. Not only did the 4 hour excursion feel like it was over too soon, but the captain and crew felt like family. They were so informative with what we were doing and also joined us in playing in the sandbars. Lastly, my cousin has never swam let alone in the ocean and was finally able to go out and snorkel! What a epic time!

We met at the location. The parking lot happened to be available, but I think it would be hard to find a spot if you arrive last minute.
The boat I boarded had all Japanese customers, and the guide spoke in Japanese, which made me feel at ease.
I went with my 1-year-old and 5-year-old, and we all had a great time!
My 5-year-old seemed really happy to be able to go snorkeling!
The BBQ hamburger we had on the boat was also delicious.

私たちは現地集合で行きました。駐車場はたまたま空いてましたが、ギリギリにくると見つからないかと思います。
私が乗った船はお客さんはみな日本人で、ガイドさんも日本語で話してくれるので安心しました。
1歳と5歳も一緒にいきましたが、とても楽しめました！
５歳はシュノーケリングもできて嬉しかったみたいです！
船で食べるBBQハンバーガーもおいしかったです。

I participated with my parents in their 60s, and the sandbar in Kaneohe Bay was shallow enough, so we could enjoy it without worrying about swimming! It was amazing to see sea turtles while snorkeling. The shuttle bus service to and from Waikiki was great. The BBQ burger for lunch was delicious!

60代の両親と一緒に参加しましたが、カネオヘ湾のサンドバーは水深も深くないので、泳げなくても安心して楽しめました！シュノーケリングでは、ウミガメを見ることが出来て最高でした。行き帰りの送迎バス(ワイキキ地区)が付いていてGoodです。ランチのBBQバーガー美味しかったです！

The hiking tour was great. The pick-up was smoothly and made everything easier. Hiro was an amazing guide with a lot of knowledge about the plants and history of the island! The lunch was great, the way from the lookout was amazing where you could see the Diamond Head, Waikiki, Pearl Harbour and the airport! Thank you Hiro for an amazing tour!

The crew was amazing! And took care of all of the customers even had a separate boat for Japanese speaking only, so thoughtful to think of them. It was so fun going out to the Sandbar, and also took us turtle watching and snorkeling! And the burger was so good after some fun in the sun! I would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone looking for some good fun, good food, and good company. All of us customers had a great time playing water volleyball with each other in the Sandbar! If you’ve been thinking about doing this, just do it, it’ll be such a fun experience to include in your Hawai’i trip!

My and my family/friends were a total of 16 people. Including a 3 month baby. We had a blast!! Perfect for big groups, would 100% recommend. My parents really enjoyed their time there. My brother who doesn't know how to swim enjoyed the sandbar!! This tour is literally perfect for all ages and lifestyles. Great experience.

I finally visited Michelle's for the first time. I struggled with the intense direct sunlight for about an hour and a half until sunset, but the food was incredibly delicious and beautiful, and I was very moved by the scenery that changed every minute. I definitely want to visit again the next time I go to Hawaii. It was the best memory.

念願のミッシェルズ、初めて訪れました。サンセットまでの1時間半程度、強烈な直射日光に苦戦はしましたが、お料理はとても美味しくて美しくて、毎分移り変わる景色にもとても感動しました。またハワイへ行く際は必ず訪れたいと思います。最高の思い出です。

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.
