There were so many activities. We were able to try most of it - canoes, tattoo, made a bracelet/headband, & we even took pictures with the parrots (extra cost for prints). Alcoholic drinks & the food were good. The white haupia dessert is my favorite, but don't eat more than 3 because it is a laxative. Our favorite part of the luau was of course the fire dance, which was really the only dance I paid most attention to. 5 stars because our bus guide Cousin Rich made this that much more fun for us. Going to Paradise Cove & back was never a sleepy ride & was never boring.

It's not a very large ship, so at first, I was a bit nervous, but there was little rocking. The elementary school children were able to experience the feeling of being a captain at the helm, and the wind felt nice. Above all, the fireworks were beautiful and left me impressed.
あまり大ききな船でないので、さいしは、ドキドキしましたが、揺れもすくなく、小学生の子は、運転台で擬似船長気分を味わうこともできて風が、気持ち良く、なんと言っても花火が、きれいで感激しました。

I used this service with my elderly parents and my family of three. We were able to see manta rays and sea turtles, but I couldn't understand the guide's fast-paced explanations, and I would like to request a bit more consideration for the users. It may be routine work for them, but I hope for a more professional approach.
During snorkeling, we were able to see many fish, but the time was short and it ended in no time. I was also expecting a sandbar as advertised, but there was surprisingly a lot of water, which was a bit disappointing.
高齢の両親と家族3人で利用しました。マンタとウミガメには会えましたが、ガイドの早口な説明は何を言っているのか理解できず、もう少し利用者に配慮をお願いしたいと思いました。彼らにはルーチンワークなのでしょうがないのかもしれませんが、プロフェッショナルな対応を望みます。
シュノーケリングでは沢山の魚を見ることが出来ましたが、時間が短くあっという間に終わってしまいました。
また、広告にあるようなサンドバーを期待していましたが、以外と水が多くて少しがっかりしました。

This was an amazing sunset dinner cruise for my girlfriend and I. We had attended this cruise as a birthday gift to her, and it felt like we were on a honeymoon. This cruise is meant for couples because it is amazingly breathtaking with the view of Diamond Head crater, the deep blue ocean, and the beautiful shores of Waikiki. Then to top it all off with a sunset upon our west coast beaches.

We had a wonderful time here. Our driver and escort provided lively Hawaiian music,taught us about sacred Hawaiian land, historic places where movies were filmed, and a list of Hawaiian vocabulary. As we got there we were greeted by employees while checking in. We saw every village and participated in some activities. We learned how to dance hula and play the ukulele. We also got to see the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The Luau portion was the best! I have never been satisfied with an endless luau buffet.Food was great but I have only one suggestion which is make sure you don't eat too much because you still need to attend the show HA The Breath of Life. The show was awesome with historic facts of how children were raised with the sense of Ohana in Hawaii. After watching this show my girlfriend and I are aware of how and what life means to the Hawaiians.Ultimately if you are planning on visiting Oahu and was interested in this activity, then don't hesitate to book it!

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful time here at Paradise Cove's Luau. As soon as we checked in, we received free maitais! Then as we made our way through the entrance path, we got greeted with lei's by our "Hawaiian Cousins". We then made our way to the bar and started drinking, as we were watching the practices of the "imu ceremony" of the pork, catching of the flowers, and the old way of how the Hawaiians used to catch fish. We then got seated at our tables and were dismissed to go get our food! I had three plates of the finest Hawaiian dishes, and my girlfriend only had one. While we had dinner, the sunset was beautiful at the peak of the ocean. It was simply amazing that we could eat at the beach and have the sunset right at your tables. Finally to conclude the evening right before the show, they dimmed the stage lights and i looked up and saw a dark night with 3 dozen stars. It all looks like a movie but it's pure reality here in Hawaii. My girlfriend and I had a romantic time.

The circle island tour (1 star) was too much a rush, it is literally a drive half way around the island to get to PCC, only a couple stops that barely has time to get off the bus and take photos, and no where states that the famous Hanauma Bay is closed on Tuesday for cleanup.
The PCC operates like the cruise ship, put a lei on you just to have photographer take pictures to sell you later, and then take the lei back. The so called guides in the PCC are students where some of them are not well trained to handle the group; you can do everything by yourself using the schedule of programs.
The Luau was mediocre, no whole pig roasting, just a huge dinning hall with lots of people, eating the buffet, and some show on stage. Sorry, I live in Vegas, this cannot compare.
"HA: Breath of Life" Show definitely 5 star, very well done and great performers, if you are willing to pay high price for shows in Vegas, this one is on par.

This luau is what you'd expect from a commercial venture. The food is decent, but the entertainment could have been better. I thought the dancers were good, but the other acts were sorely lacking in depth and quality. Our group attendant was great, full of humor and a general pleasure to listen to.
For what it is, I'd say I had a good time. Don't expect any real cultural enrichment though, it's just good mindless fun.

I finally got to go on the tour I had been wanting to go on in July. Actually, my husband is 63 years old and I am 54, and I wasn't confident in my swimming skills, so I didn't plan to go snorkeling. However, I was overcome by the urge to try it, and I experienced it by myself. It was my first time in life! I'm glad I did it. As for the sandbar, I didn't check the moon's condition before going, so it was quite full, but I was satisfied. The sandwich was simple, but it was delicious!

Paradise Cove is rich in nature, the sea is beautiful, and the sunset was stunning. The show was, of course, wonderful and fun. What stands out the most in my memory is the tour guide on the bus. I forgot his name, but he was very entertaining, and even though I didn't understand much of the English, my sister translated for me, and we laughed a lot. I was surprised that he remembered all the passengers' names and called them out one by one from the front. Especially considering how difficult Japanese names can be... However, it might be a bit tough for those who don't understand English. Thanks to my sister's translation, we had a very enjoyable time on the bus.
パラダイス・コーブは自然が豊かで海も美しく、夕日もとてもきれいですてきでした。

とにかくバスの乗客の名前を全て覚えてしまって、前から順番に全員の名前を言ったのには驚きました。特に日本人の名前は難しいでしょうに・・
ただ英語は分からない人にはちょっと厳しいかも

Even as a first-timer, I was able to participate without any anxiety because the staff taught us patiently. I was also impressed by the beauty of the ocean! However, it seems that the weather conditions were unusually good recently, so I felt a bit underwhelmed as we reached the uninhabited island without much difficulty. For those with kayaking experience, it might be more enjoyable to just rent a kayak and move around freely.
Also, the pizza recommended by the guide for lunch was delicious.
初めてでもスタッフが丁寧に教えてくれたので、不安なく参加出来ました。
海のきれいさにも感動!
ただ、ここ最近では珍しいほど天候の条件が良かったらしく、特に苦労せず無人島まで辿り着けたので多少物足りなさを感じました。
カヤック経験者の方は、カヤックのみ借りて自由に動き回った方が面白いかも知れません。
あと、ランチに食べたガイドさんオススメのピザがうまかったです。

Private beach → lunch → movie village → jeep experience, but there was absolutely no time between each tour, and we only had about 15 minutes for lunch before heading to the movie village tour. After that, it was off to the jeep location... It felt like there was no time even to go to the restroom. The kids wanted to look at souvenirs, but the schedule was set so tightly that we barely made it back to the bus on time...
It was a full-day tour, but I ended up exhausted.
The private beach wasn't as beautiful as I expected... It felt like there was nothing to do after about an hour...
The person who organized everything was fluent in Japanese and was very helpful.
But I don't think I'll go again...

It was my first experience with kayaking, so I was worried it might be difficult to reach the uninhabited island, but it was no problem at all! Before getting into the kayak, we had a briefing on how to paddle, and even after we hit the water, our guide provided us with advice.
Due to my lack of exercise lately, my arms got a little tired (^ー^;), but the amazing views from the kayak made me forget all about that!!! On the uninhabited island, you can also snorkel if you wish. Next time, I want to challenge myself to a longer distance.
For the morning tour, we transported the kayaks from the shop to the beach, but since there was a cart, it was easy. Moving it from the cart to the sandy beach was a bit challenging (though it was just a short distance).
カヤック初体験だったので、無人島まで行くのは大変じゃないかな?と心配しましたが、まったく問題ありませんでした!カヤックに乗りこむ前に漕ぎ方のレクチャーがあり、海に出てからもガイドさんがアドバイスしてくれます。
日頃の運動不足のせいで、腕が少し疲れましたが(^ー^;)、カヤックから望む素晴らしい景色でそんなものは吹っ飛んでしまいます!!!
無人島では、希望すればシュノーケルもできます。
次回はもう少し長い距離に挑戦したいなと思います。
午前中のツアーは、カヤックをSHOPからビーチまで運ぶのですが、台車が付いていたので、ラクラクでしたよ。台車から下ろして、砂浜の上を移動させるのが少し大変でした(といっても、ほんの少しの距離です)
