All Reviews for Baby Friendly (Ages 0-2)

This was my second time participating. I had made a reservation for Christmas, which thankfully was still being held, but it was canceled due to bad weather. Fortunately, I was able to adjust to another day and participate.

The boat had changed since my last visit, and it had been upgraded in various ways! Unlike Mikurajima, it was disappointing that diving was prohibited where the dolphins were, so we could only watch from above, but I was glad to see them multiple times.

Since it was a busy season, there were many participants, and I noticed several people getting bruised from bumping into each other while swimming. There were also quite a few people feeling seasick. Taking precautions is important.

It was disappointing that I couldn't see any turtles while snorkeling this time, but the crew was great at keeping the energy up, and the hula was wonderful, so it was definitely worth participating!

2回目の参加でした。
クリスマスもありがたいことに催行されていたので予約していたのですが悪天候のためキャンセルになりました。運良く別の日に調整できて参加できました。

前回から船も変わっていて、色々とパワーアップしていました！
御蔵島と違い、イルカがいるところでは潜るのが禁止だったので上から見るだけなのが残念でしたが、何度も見られたので良かったです。
繁忙期なので参加者が多く、一緒に泳ぐのでぶつかってあざになっている方が多く見られました。あと船酔いしてる方も多々見られました。対策は重要です。

今回はシュノーケリングで亀が見られなかったのが残念でしたが、クルーのかたが盛り上げ上手で、フラも素敵でしたし、参加した甲斐ありました！

It was hard to get up in the morning while traveling, but thanks to that, I was able to spend a fulfilling morning.

The scenery was amazing.

Unfortunately, I couldn't swim with the dolphins. However, two adorable dolphins swam alongside our boat for a while, which was very soothing.

Important note!! Many people suffered from seasickness. It's essential to take motion sickness medication from places like ABC Mart beforehand.

We also took the motion sickness medication we got from ABC Mart as soon as we woke up, and we had no problems at all. Oh, I felt a little nauseous on the way back, though.

The staff were incredibly cute and enthusiastic!!

Even if you can't meet the dolphins, you can still have a great time.

朝なかなか起きられない旅先ですが、おかげさまで、充実の午前中を過ごすことができました。

景色最高。

イルカは、残念ながら一緒に泳ぐ事は出来ませんでした。ただし、かわいらしい二頭が、その後
船にずっと付き添って泳いでいてくれ、和みました。

重要事項!!　多くの方が船酔いで、苦しんでいました。
ABCマートなどで、必ず酔い止めを飲んでおくことが大切です。

私たちもABCマートで求めた酔い止めを、起床とともにともに飲み、全く問題なく過ごすことができました。
あ、帰り際には少しだけ気持ち悪くなりましたが。

スタッフの方々の可愛さと盛り上げが最高です!!

もしイルカに会えなくても、充分に楽しめます

The seating was at a round table for eight on the first floor, and we were seated with others. There was live music on the first floor as well, but the second floor seemed better. The meal included salad, chicken, fish, pasta, and chocolate cake, but the taste was just okay. For drinks, the buffet course charges for everything except the welcome drink. After the meal, you can freely walk around the second and third floors and the deck. The fireworks lasted for five minutes starting at 7:45. While waiting for the sunset on the second-floor deck, we even caught a glimpse of a whale for a moment.

席は一階の8人がけ丸テーブルで相席でした。一階も生演奏がありましたが、二階席の方が良さそうでした。食事は、サラダ、チキン、魚、パスタ、チョコレートケーキで、味はいまいちでした。飲み物は、buffet コースは、ウェルカムドリンク以外有料です。食事が終われば二階、三階、デッキ自由に歩き回れます。花火は、7:45分から5分間でした。二階のデッキでサンセット待ってるいるときに、鯨も一瞬見れました。

The guide was very kind, and they took a lot of wonderful photos at the sandbar. I was also able to see many sea turtles.

案内の人がすごく親切で、さんどばーで素敵な写真いっぱい撮ってくれました。ウミガメにもたくさん会うことが出来ました。

There were plenty of fish while snorkeling, and we also played beach volleyball. The weather that day wasn't very good, but I had a great time! The staff were all very kind, and I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

シュノーケルもお魚がいっぱいいたり
ビーチバレーもしました。
その日天気はあまり良くなかったのですが
すごく楽しめました！
スタッフも優しい方ばかりでまた機会があったら参加したいと思います。

Everyone was great, experience was wonderful. Crew made you feel really safe

The staff were great. They were helpful in pointing things out and when helpful when a tour member was unwell.

I participated because of the good reviews. The experience met my expectations, and I was very satisfied with both the food and the show! The food was plentiful, and the fire dance was impressive and breathtaking.
The venue is in an easy-to-find location, so even for us who are not familiar with Hawaii, we were able to arrive without getting lost.
The impersonation lineup is classic, making it enjoyable even for us in our 60s.
At the end, we had the opportunity to take commemorative photos with the performers, which created great memories. I would like to participate again with my whole family next time.

口コミが良かったので参加しました。期待通りの内容で、ご飯もショーも大満足です！料理はボリュームがあり、ファイヤーダンスは迫力があって圧巻でした。
会場はわかりやすい場所にあるので、ハワイに不慣れな私たちでも、迷わず到着することがでにました。
モノマネラインナップは王道なので、60代の私たちでも楽しめる内容です。
最後は出演者の方との記念撮影も可能なので、思い出にもなりました。今度は家族みんなで参加したいと思います。

I definitely wanted to see hula dancing when I came to Hawaii! I compared various shows based on their programs. Many people told me that these kinds of shows aren't worth seeing, but this one was just as amazing as I imagined. Everyone finished their meals before the show too!

やっぱり、ハワイに来たらフラダンスはみたい！と思い色々なショーをプログラムを元に比較。色々な人にこの手のショーはみる価値ない。と言われたけど、ここはイメージ通り最高でした。ショーの前の食事もみんな完食してましたよ！

It's truly beautiful; walking on such a beautiful beach is the best. You'll definitely see sea turtles, almost as if they're being kept nearby!

本当にキレイ、キレイな海を歩けるってのが最高
ウミガメ100%会えます、飼われてるんかぐらいの距離感！

We had a great time enjoying the various slides with the kids. However, it was disappointing that some slides had specific operating times, so we couldn't ride them when we wanted. It would be great if the operating hours for each slide could be made public.

様々なスライダーで子供ともども楽しめました。
ただ、スライダーによっては、やっている時間とやっていない時間があるので、乗りたい時に乗れないので残念でした。
できれば、スライダーごとのやっている時間を公開して欲しいです。

I chose the best seats, but there wasn't much of a sense of value. You can see from all four sides in a similar way. Two drinks are included, but that's about it. When it comes to going for a meal, groups with children are prioritized, so it didn't matter how good the seats were.

一番良い席にしましたが、あまりお得感がありません。
四方どこからでも同じような感じで見られます。
ドリンクが２杯付いてきますが、そのくらいです。
食事をとりに行くのも子供がいるグループが優先で、席が良くても関係ありませんでした。

The stage was close, and I felt the excitement and energy intensely, which was moving. Also, I felt that the fire dance had the most amazing technique I've ever seen.

ステージが近く、迫力とともに、ビンビンと熱気が伝わり、感動をしました。また、ファイヤダンスは、今までの中で一番凄いテクニックを持っていると感じました。

Our first Christmas Eve living in Hawaii and the Cruise and Service was outstanding. 7 course dinner was delicious and live entertainment was top shelf.

What an amazing day, full of many unique experiences and very friendly staff.

It started with a great host on the bus ride to the centre. He was funny, informative and well spoken. The day continued with our guide throughout the centre. I recommend paying for the Ambassador experience. It is worth the extra dollars to ensure you make all the shows on time.

The feast we had for dinner was excellent quality and ample. There was the opportunity to eat seconds and thirds if you wanted.

The final show the breath of life was an amazing display. I would have been satisfied with just that show and dinner.

I will be recommending this experience to my family and friends.

The catamaran was a lot of fun, but I couldn't see any whales. I did receive a free change ticket, but since I'm scheduled to return home the next morning, I can't use it. I don't have any plans for my next trip to Hawaii, so I might not be able to use this ticket. I wonder how long it is valid for.

カタマラン号はとても楽しかったのですが、鯨は見ることができなかった。フリーの変更チケットはいただけたのですが、次の日朝には帰国予定のため使えず。次回のハワイ行きの予定が今はないのでこのチケットは使えないのかも。有効期間はいつまでなのかー。

Sandbar...not what we expected - but amazing!
Turtle watch...AMAZING!!!
Crew...SUPER AMAZING!
We would do this tour again and again any time we are in Oahu!

I have visited Hawaii several times, but this was my first time participating in this event. It often appears in guidebooks, so at first glance, I wasn't particularly interested. However, when I saw that it was being held on Christmas, December 25, I thought, "Why not go for dinner?" and went without much expectation. As a result, I had a great time! Very much so! We had a leisurely dinner starting around 6:30 PM, and the show began around 8 PM. When you think of Hawaii, you think of hula, and there were impersonators of Elvis and Michael. I didn't know much about Elvis due to my generation, but I was drawn into the entertainment and really enjoyed it. During our visit, I noticed that there were fewer Japanese guests than I expected, and there was a wide range of ages among the audience. The food was standard, but I enjoyed it. Being seated in front of the stage allowed us to feel close to the performers, and I personally recommend this seating.

ハワイには何度か訪れていますが、こちらは、初めての参加でした。ガイドブックなんかにもよくでているので、パッとみて、特に興味がなかったのですが、クリスマスの12月25日に催行されているのをみて、夕食がてら一度行ってみるか！と最初は、あまり期待せずにいきました。その結果、楽しかったんです。とても！ステージ前の席でまず６時半頃からゆっくりディナーをいただいて８時頃からショーが始まりました。ハワイといえばフラ、そしてプレスリーやマイケルのそっくりさんが登場しました。世代的にプレスリーほとんど知りませんでしたが、エンターテイメントに引き込まれて、とても楽しめました。お客さんは、私たちのときは、日本人の方は思ったより少ないという印象と、幅広い年代の方がいらっしゃってるなという感じでした。お料理は、標準的なものでしたが、おいしくいただきました。やはりステージ前は演者の方を近くに感じることができて、こちらのお席、個人的におすすめです。

Recently, I was told by someone who went to this show that my parents would love it, so I went! I didn't know much about Presley, but my mom, who initially wasn't interested, was super excited‼️ On the way back, she couldn't calm down and kept asking to take and enlarge photos! I couldn't take my eyes off the hula, and I had a wonderful time, which made me very happy! They also gave us plenty of time, so I was extremely satisfied. I was able to do a great job of being a good child to my parents!

先日、こちらのショーに行った方に、両親が喜ぶよ！と言われ行って来ました！わたしはプレスリーは分かりませんでしたが、はじめは乗る気もなかった母が大興奮‼️帰りには写真撮って引き伸ばしてー！と興奮冷めやらず。わたしはフラに目が離せなく、とても楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来幸せでした！時間もたっぷりやっていただいたので、大満足です。良い親孝行が出来ました！

I was able to see three sea turtles. According to the captain, it's possible to see sea turtles most of the time.
Although drinks are available for a fee, the scenery while enjoying them is fantastic. We also had the opportunity to stop and jump into the sea, which was very satisfying.
I would love to come back again.

ウミガメ三匹に会えました。船長さんによると殆どウミガメを見ることができるそうです。
有料ですが良心的な価格の飲み物を頂きながらの景色は最高。途中で止まって海に飛び込むこともできて大満足でした。
またお世話になりたいと思います。

First, you have to take off your shoes before boarding, but this was not communicated in advance. I was told to wait at the front of the deck to see the whales, and then I got completely soaked from a big wave! This was also not mentioned beforehand. I participated last year and didn't see any whales, so I tried again this time, but there was no sign of them at all. Other tours have been operating since January, but I participated at the end of December. Is it really possible to encounter whales at this time? The chances of seeing them seem almost zero. I won't be participating again at the end of the year.

まず、乗船するまえに、靴をぬがなくては行けない。が、その事は、事前連絡なし。
クジラを見れるとデッキの前にでてと言われて、待機していたら、大波で、びしょ濡れに！それも事前に伝えてもらえず。
昨年も、参加し、クジラが見えなかったので、
今回リベンジしましたが、見える気配さえありませんでした。
他のツアーでは、
1月からの催行になっていますが、
12月末の参加で、実際に本当に
クジラに遭遇できるのでしょうか？
見える確率は、ゼロに等しいのではないでしょうか？
年末にはもう、参加しません。

Views were great on the boat tour.
The sand bar activity was a total let down. Many of us were thinking they will start a volleyball game, but soon they were packing the net back! ?! There was basically nothing to do in the sand bar given that.

Then the turtle watching was fun. Then snorkeling was ok.
They do not help out beginners in any way. We asked them multiple times if one of them can come with us for helping out.. but no response.

Given the price, i would rate this ok overall..

It was my first dinner cruise in high waves and strong winds. Ten minutes after departure, I immediately got seasick... I ended up stuck at the back of the deck, feeling miserable the whole time. Because of that, I decided to buy a commemorative photo, but I forgot to pick it up, so I just ended up paying for it. I think it was distributed at the seats, but I wish I had received a notification... I will never go again.

波が高く風も強い中、初のディナークルーズでした。
出港して10分、即船酔い…結局ずっとデッキのうしろで地獄絵図…
そんなこともあり、記念写真を購入したのですが受け取るのを忘れてしまい、お金を払っただけになってしまいました。
多分、席に配られていたと思うのですが連絡欲しかったです…
もう二度と行きません。

Thanks to your great service, we could enjoy a lot today!
The pick up/off ,tour guidance, lunch servise and equipments for activities were very good.
I was happy to hear "Okaeri" when I came back from the tour. I really appreciate all of your big smile and kindness.

We had dinner first, and then watched a show in the hall, which was quite elaborate. There was even a fire dance, despite being indoors. The venue was in an area with many hotels, making it very convenient.

食事を先にして、その後ホールでショーを見たのですが、なかなかに凝ったショーでした。ちゃんとファイアーダンスもありましたし。室内なのに。
会場はホテルが多く立ち並ぶエリアで便利は良かったです。

I participated alone. There were just under 50 people on the bus, and I was the only Japanese person. Since it was close to Thanksgiving, most of the attendees were from the mainland United States or Canada. The guide on the bus enthusiastically encouraged everyone to introduce themselves to those sitting around them, which allowed me to connect with the people in front of me, behind me, and next to me (thanks to this, I became friends with an elderly Canadian couple sitting behind me, and on the way back, I sat next to the husband and we had a lively conversation).

We were able to experience hula, tattooing, and fire-starting, which I think kids would also enjoy. The fire dance was so intense that we could feel the heat even as audience members; it was spectacular and thrilling. The excitement from the audience was incredible, and just being there was fun! There was a couple celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary, and everyone in the venue celebrated together, creating a wonderful sense of unity. I think it's especially great for those on their honeymoon or celebrating anniversaries to create memorable experiences.

I believe you won't fully enjoy it unless you understand English to some extent, but if you want to fully experience the foreign atmosphere, I definitely recommend it!

1人で参加しました。バス５０名弱でしたが、日本人は私1人でした。サンクスギビング近かったのでholidayできているアメリカ本土の方やカナダの方がほとんどでした。バスの中からガイドさんがノリノリで周りの席の人と自己紹介し合いましょうと言われ、前後、隣の方と交流を深められました(お陰で後ろの席のカナダ人老夫婦と仲良くなり帰りのバスはそのご主人と隣に座って会話盛り上がりました)
hulaの体験や、タトゥー体験、火起こし体験もでき、お子様でも楽しめると思います。ファイヤーダンスは客先でも熱風を感じるほどで、迫力満点、素晴らしかったです。観客の盛り上がりもすごくてその場にいるだけで楽しかったです！結婚60周年というご夫婦がいて会場皆でお祝いしてとても一体感がありました。ハネムーンや記念日の方は特に良い思い出作りができると思います。
英語がある程度理解できないと充分楽しめないと思いますが、外国の雰囲気を存分に味わいたいなら是非オススメです！

Beautiful views of Honolulu at night from the ocean, lovely food, and great, friendly atmosphere from beginning to end.

From the time we were greeted to the final good byes it was a perfect day. everyone was so kind and gracious. Our guide Raff was outstanding and is considered ohana to us. He was very knowledgeable and took care of us so well we didn't want the day to end.
Next time we return to Hawaii we will come back to Polynesian Cultural Center.
Thank you for a wonderful experience.

I rented a car to get there. There were fewer people, so I was able to enjoy almost all the attractions without much waiting. There weren't many Japanese people, but there were a few here and there. There weren't many places to eat. It was a bit disappointing that we had to carry our own floaties and such.

レンタカーを借りて行きました。
人は少なめで、どのアトラクションもほとんど並ばずに楽しむことができました。
日本人の人も多くなかったですが、ちらほらいました。
食べるところはそのほどなかったです。
浮き輪等を自分で運ぶ必要があり、その点は少し残念でした。

I thought I didn't need any of the options, so this tour with just transportation and admission tickets was perfect. As I mentioned in the title, there were only children and their families, but I would recommend it to adults who love roller coasters as well. There are sliders with angles that are unimaginable in Japan. However, I almost got whiplash, so please be careful about that.

オプションはどれもいらないと思ったので送迎と入場券のみのこのツアーがぴったりでした。
タイトルに書いたとおり子供とその家族しかいませんでしたが、大人でもジェットコースターとか大好きな方にはおすすめします。
日本ではありえない急角度のスライダーばかり。しかしムチウチになりかけましたのでその点気をつけて下さい。
