All Reviews for Baby Friendly (Ages 0-2)

We, cannot stop talking about our day. Our guide Melody was more than wonderful. We enjoyed her tremendously,she was so knowledgable it was amazing. Everyone should visit this location. Everyone was friendly and nice.

This has been our third luau. We have been to a luau in Kona and the Old Lahaina Luau. This year my family and I decided to attend the luau at the Polynesian center since we had heard so much of it. Unfortunately, we were not impressed and actually disappointed. We were treated better at the other two luau's, such as free alcohol drinks and hospitality overall. Your dinner was good, and the waitress attended us well. We were disappoin- ted with the show. I felt I was watching a Las Vegas show and not a cultural, narrative, Polynesian history show. My family and I love to see the grass skirt dances and you had very little of it. We also did not like the auditorium ambiance and everyone running to get ice cream.

We had a great time on this tour, our driver was fantastic, Keao made everyone feel like they were a friend. We had young children in our group and he entertained them a lot of the way, along with the rest of us. Very informative and wonderful way to see the island. Only negative, would have liked to have just a little more time at the Dole Plantation.

I apologize for the delay in my post. In March, my husband, my daughter (who is 8 years old), and I participated in the snorkeling activity. It was our first time snorkeling, so we were a bit scared until we got used to it. The staff kindly pushed us from behind to help us swim and took us to great spots. They were also very kind to my daughter on the boat, and I was really touched by the staff's thoughtful care. When dolphins swam very close, I got distracted by my daughter and hurriedly dove in, and we were able to see a group of dolphins. My husband was thrilled to see them up close. We also got to see small fish and turtle eggs. Since it was whale season, we were excited to see whales swimming gracefully and even witnessed a whale jump. I definitely want to participate again when we visit Hawaii. Thank you very much!

ずいぶんおくれての書き込みで失礼致します　３月に主人　私　娘８歳の３人で参加させていただきました　シュノーケルは私と娘は初めてでしたので　慣れるまでは少し怖かったのですが　なかなか前に進めない私たちを後ろから押して泳いでくださり　いいポイントまで連れて行ってくださったり　船の上でも子供にもとても親切にしていただき　スタッフの皆さんの優しい心遣いがとてもうれしかったです　イルカがとても近くを泳いでいるときに娘に気をとられていて　あわててもぐり　イルカの群れを見れました　主人はとても近くで見れたと大喜びしていました　小さな魚や海亀のたまごも見ることができました　そして　鯨の時期でもあったので　鯨がゆうゆうと泳ぐ姿　鯨ジャンプまで見れ興奮しました　またハワイに行った際には　是非参加させていただきたいと思っています　ありがとうございました　　

This place is beautiful.

I participated in the afternoon tour. There were few people, and I felt like I had the stunning views all to myself! Additionally, I had no expectations for the lunch BBQ, but everything was delicious. On the day our group participated, the tide was high, and unfortunately, even in the shallowest areas, the water was up to my knees. I regret not being able to stand on the sandy beach in the middle of the sea, as shown in the photos... I would love to join again the next time I come to Hawaii.

午後のツアーに参加しました。人数が少なくて最高にきれいな景色を独り占めできたような感覚を味わえました！
それにランチBBQは、味は全く期待していなかったのですが、全ておいしかったです。
私達ｸﾞﾙｰﾌﾟが参加した日は潮が高く、残念ながら一番浅いところでもひざ上まで海に入ってる状態でした。
写真のように、海の真ん中で砂浜の上に立てなかったことが心残りです・・・。
次回ﾊﾜｲに来るときにもまた参加したいと思いました。

We had a great time snorkeling with Captain Bob's crew! Everyone was so friendly and nice. After the snorkeling was over we cruised the bay. I thought it was awesome the way the crew gave us lots of information about the area. We highly recommend this trip and can' t wait to go back!!!!

This was the best tour of the whole trip. It was probably made that way by the tour guide that we had. Garfield was our guide and he was very informative and well liked. We learned more on this tour even though we had lived on the island before.

We found the experience a total refreshment. From the loading on the ship to the disembarking, the personal attention to our needs was delightful. We found the food to be excellent. The only down side we found was their taste in music, but to each his/her own.
We found the Vow Renewal part not as exciting as anticipated but well worth the expense.

This was quite an experience of seeing how life in the islands would have been like. It is quite different than life today.

I decided to take a trip to hawaii and include this lovely romantic cruise ship for my boyfriend's 30th birthday.If was very intimate and romantic. We absolutely loved the experience and the staff. Kalani and Joe were such a joy. I would strongly recommend the 5 star honolulu dinner cruise to any couple celebrating a special or intimate event.

Awesome, we are from New Zealand and the Horizons show certainly made us proud to be part of Polynesia

Thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The Driver (from Samoa) was very knowledgeable and entertaining about the Islands and the Arizone /Missouri. He made it well worth the time and money.

The Oahu Dinner Sunset Cruise was very nice; the service was great and the food was excellent.

I had returned after twenty five years and the Center was as good as ever! My traveling companion was visiting for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed the day, luau and show. A great day recommended for all visitors to the island of Oahu.

I would recommend this trip to anyone visiting the island for the first time. As long as the pick-up bus gets started, the tour is a fun and enjoyable one while learning a great deal about the history of Pearl Harbor. Tour guide was excellent.

A wonderful day - our second visit - and should not be missed. Entertaining & informative. The "Horizons" show is fantastic, particularly the Fire Dance.

A very good event to go to. Good food, good show and hundrreds of your closest friends

We had an absolutely gorgeous clear day. The ocean floor was visible to more than 30 feet. We were entertained by dolphins, monitored by turtles, and even visited by some whales! I'm sure we were very lucky, but it sure seemed like it was all arranged just for us. The views of Oahu were breathtaking, and though my wife and UII did not snorkle we enjoyed the stories from the knowledgeable staff. Patrick makes bodacious Mai Tais!!

I participated in a deluxe cruise on April 20, 2008.

There were about 40 passengers in total, and we were the only three Japanese people. The explanations were primarily in English, but there was a staff member who was fluent in Japanese, so I didn't feel any particular inconvenience.

The cabin has about 30 seats, but many people were enjoying the view from the deck. There are two restrooms available.

The boat swayed quite a bit, and two of my companions got seasick. It seems that standing and looking at the distant scenery is less likely to cause nausea than sitting down. I was completely fine, though.

We mostly saw dolphins swimming in the distance, but some dolphins came close to the boat, which was very exciting when we saw them up close. However, it seemed to be a sleepy time for them, so it was disappointing that we didn't get to see any jumps or spins. For dolphin watching, an early morning cruise might be better.

Regarding snorkeling, I have experienced clearer waters before, so I wasn't particularly impressed, but I did see a turtle, and I enjoyed it to some extent. Depending on the season, it might feel a bit cold, so I recommend wearing a rash guard. It also helps prevent sunburn.

The lunch was delicious, but the boat was rocking, so I was focused on eating without dropping anything from my plate.

I think the encounter rate with dolphins and turtles and the degree of the boat's sway depend on timing. All the staff were kind, fun, and very good. However, since it's an activity with many foreigners, I wouldn't recommend it for those who are not comfortable in that kind of atmosphere.

2008年4月20日のデラックスクルーズに参加。

総勢40名程度の乗客で、日本人は我々三名のみ。基本的に説明は英語ですが、日本語の堪能なスタッフがケアしてくださるので、特に不都合は感じませんでした。

キャビンは30席程度の座席がありますが、デッキで外を眺めている人が多かったです。トイレは2箇所あります。

ボートはかなり揺れるので、同行者二名は船酔いになってしまいました。座っているよりも、立って遠くの景色を眺めている方が酔いにくいようです。私は全く平気でしたが。

お目当てのイルカは遠方を泳ぐ姿を見るという感じだったのですが、中には船の近くまで寄って来るイルカもいて、間近で見たときはとても興奮しました。しかしながら、眠い時間帯だったようで、ジャンプやスピンが見られなかったのは残念です。イルカウォッチングに関しては早起きクルーズの方が良いかもしれません。

シュノーケリングに関しては、もっと透明度の高い海での経験があるので、さほどの感激はありませんでしたが、ウミガメも一匹見られましたし、それなりに楽しめました。季節によっては若干寒く感じることもあるかと思いますので、ラッシュガードの着用をおすすめします。日焼け防止にもなりますし。

ランチは美味しかったのですが、なにせ船が揺れるので、皿から落ちないように食べることに必死でした。

イルカやウミガメとの遭遇率や船の揺れ具合はタイミングによると思います。スタッフは全員親切で楽しくて非常に良かったです。ただし外国人の多いアクティビティなので、そういう雰囲気が苦手な人にはおすすめしません。

We had a great time on this tour. We saw a little bit of everything. Rongo, our guide, was so much fun, and so knowledgable. He had so much personal knowledge of the island we often felt like we were somehow being driven around by an old friend who wanted to 'show us around'. Rongo was just a great, great guide. We had fun. We had time to take pictures anywhere we stopped, never felt rushed or hurried. Loved everything we saw and felt like we got a very complete 'view' of the island as well as it's history and all of the things that made 'Oahu'....Oahu. We took this tour our second day in Oahu in case we stumbled across something we would want to spend more time investigating later. We're glad we did. Rongo was also willing to give us tips on great places to eat, or grab a drink. We really had fun!

Transportation picked us up on time. We were seated upon arrival to the boat. We were served promptly. the ride was soo smooth. The food was excellent. The entertainment was fabulous. There was plenty of time for pictures and you were able to walk around at your leisure. we got amazing pictures especially sunset pictures, and the crew was great!.. i would recommend this to anyone looking for a fabulous dinner cruise to attend in hawaii. this is a definite must do! the picture attached, was a product of this cruise!

The tour can't be called fun, but i can say "don't miss it". It's very informative, quite solemn (the Arizona portion) and something i think every visitor should take in. It was well organized, good timing, and did everything we hoped it would.

we absolutely had a great time on the cruise we saw whale activity just as promised. The only two things that I would suggest in the future is that you may want to utilize more of the boats space with the activities you provided, people were too crowded. the buffet needed to be held open longer and have food available in supple amounts those of us who were told we could watch the whales longer and that the buffet would be there came back to limited food and a quick clean up.

I was told this was the most authentic luau on Oahu. The actually dinner was a bit crowded and the stage show was too loud and pretty boring. The buffet offered a variety of dishes but I had to eat from the kids side because that menu only offered the vegetarian option that actually had nutritional value.
When booking this trip it would have been nice to know up front that the cultural center was run by mormons so therefore there was no alcohol or caffeine available. The night show was worth seeing...very well done...just as good as a play in NYC.
Our driver picked us up 15 minutes late then proceeded to wait another 20 for 2 people who were on the list and were not there yet. Because of this we were unable to get the tour of the center that we paid for and they would not issue us tickets to come again some other day. If I could do it all over again I would go the full day, pack food and see the evening show. Probably rent a car and take a break down the street on the beach.

My bother and I went on the Oahu Day Cruise on April 10th 2008 just for an activity for the day. The cruise was an amazing experience with great staff and good people. The whales were amazing that day, so there was no lack of seeing one. I would highly recommend this activity during april or wnever there are whales to watch. It was quite an experience. Thanks to Hawaii Activities, and the Star of Honolulu crew.

Good!

This tour, starting with a kind morning call at 5 AM from the hotel, is truly fulfilling and highly recommended! You can see a pod of dolphins within a meter, and afterwards, encounter giant sea turtles and tropical fish! The cheeseburgers made by the captain on the boat are exquisite, and you can even enjoy kayak surfing. Finally, you can experience hula at a park near the harbor. It's a parade of activities that can only be done in Hawaii! Additionally, there is a photographer accompanying the tour, and if you request, they will edit the photos taken during the tour into a DVD and deliver it the next day! This way, the wonderful experiences of the day can be kept as souvenirs! Not only is the tour itself interesting, but the magnificent views of Hawaii's emerald green sea from the catamaran yacht are also remarkable! I absolutely recommend this tour! It may seem a bit pricey, but given the content, it's worth it! I truly had a great time! Thank you, staff!!!

朝5時の宿泊ホテルへの親切なモーニングコールからはじまるこのツアー、ほんとに充実していて、お勧め度満点です！！
イルカの群れを１ｍ以内で見ることができ、そのあとは巨大海亀や熱帯魚と遭遇！　船の上で船長さんが作ってくれるチーズバーガーも絶品だし、カヤックサーフィンまで楽しめ、最後は港の近くの公園でフラの体験までできます。まさにハワイでしかできないことのオンパレード！　また、このツアーにはカメラマンさんも同行していて、自分たちのツアーの様子を撮った写真を申し込むとＤＶＤで編集して翌日には渡してくれます！　これでこの日のすばらしい経験が、お土産品として残ります！　ツアー自体の面白さもさることながら、カタマランヨットから見るハワイのエメラルドグリーンの海をはじめとする雄大な景色も乙なものです！　絶対お勧めのツアーです！　少し代金が高い気もするかもしれませんが、この内容なら納得です！！
本当に楽しかったです！スタッフの皆さん、マハロ！！！

My family had a wonderful time on this cruise. We would do this again if we go back to Hawaii. Everyone should try it, the food was great, the entertainment was great. Evrything was wonderful.

In February, I participated with my family. According to our guide, this tour is the closest you can get to the sandbar. The scenery on the way to the sandbar by boat was very beautiful. My 4-year-old daughter tried snorkeling for the first time, but she couldn't do it, so our family played around the boat. Along the way, a boy around 6 or 7 years old also seemed to have trouble and returned to the boat. In the end, we were able to see a lucky turtle from the boat.

2月に家族で参加しました。ガイドさんの話では
ここのツアーが一番サンドバーに近づけれるといっていました。船でサンドバーまで向かう途中の景色は、とても綺麗でした。
４歳の娘が初シュノーケリングにトライしてみましたが、無理でしたので、うちの家族は船の周辺で遊んでいました。途中、６~７才位の男の子も出来なかったみたいで、船へ引き返してきました。
最後、船から幸運の？亀も見ることが出来ました。
