Oahu
I didn't request a shuttle and went by bus and Lyft.
The attractions have lines, but not as much as at pools in Japan.
My turn came quickly.
I spent the whole day playing without eating.
送迎は頼まず、バスとLyftで行きました。
アトラクションは並んでますが、日本のプールほどではありません。
すぐに順番が来ます。
食事を取らずに1日遊んでいました。
On the last day of my trip, I wanted to feel a bit luxurious and wrap up my enjoyable memories. As expected from 5STAR! The course dinner was very delicious (^.^). The sunset and the lights of Waikiki from the sea were as beautiful as jewels! The stylish atmosphere with jazz will surely create unforgettable memories with my loved ones.
旅の最終日にちょっとリッチな気分で楽しい思い出の締めくくり。
さすが5STAR!コースディナーの味もとても美味しくいただきました(^.^)
サンセットも海上から見るワイキキの灯も宝石みたいなキレイさ!
JAZZでオシャレな雰囲気は大切な方との生涯忘れられない思い出になると思います。

Aloha! Thank you for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. We are also very grateful for your kind review. We would be delighted if you could come back to visit us the next time you come to Hawaii. We sincerely look forward to that day. Mahalo!
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加頂きましてありがとうございます。
またこのように丁寧なレビューを頂きましたこと大変感謝しております。次回ハワイにお越しの際もまたぜひ遊びにいらしていただけると嬉しいです。
その日を心よりお待ちしております。マハロ!
Such a fun and memorable experience! We first stopped at the sandbar and played volleyball. The volleyball was actually so fun even if you have never played! The lunch was good and filling and offer beer and other choices of beverages. After that, we headed to the coral reef and spent about an hour there swimming and enjoying the fish! We say sea turtles and manta rays from afar which was unforgettable. Overall, highly recommend this fun experience for everyone!
I thoroughly enjoyed a full day walking around the Polynesian Cultural Center, being introduced to the different cultures, learning history, watching free performances, and buying HI things for family back home. The buffet dinner was outstanding with excellent, friendly service from staff.
The best part was the "HA Breath of Life" show. I've seen Broadway in NY and a show in the west end of London, and this show as just as good, maybe even better as it revolves around true cultural experiences for the audience to witness. I actually got tear-upped more than once. I hope many other will get the opportunity. It was worth every penny and the late bus ride back into Honolulu.
Luau was amazing
Food was amazing
It’s just a shame that you guys didn’t pick us up.
Had to get a taxi to the show which was lucky we found one that could take my husbands mobility scooter.
Made some phone calls to complain and sent an email to complain
We were promised a ride back to hotel on bus.
The hostess on the bus on the way was very rude to us
We did receive a small refund which we will grateful for.
Just a suggestion (which I did mention in my emails) for future tours. That maybe your host on the buses actually go and check with all persons that may be waiting by the pickup point or little further away from pickup point. You are dealing with tourists and not everyone will know where the exact pickup points are. Also in our case have the actual name of the tour in front window of bus. Our bus did not have this. Otherwise we would like have know. The host for our tour actually started walking down towards where we were standing but turned back around half way down. She would have seen my husband was in a mobility scooter and would i assume have this information written on your paperwork.
The cruise was amazing
Food was delicious
My husband was in a mobility scooter and we were told by your company that he could not use it as weighed too
Much so had to hire a wheelchair.
When got on the bus we mentioned it to the star of Honolulu host and she said we did not need to do that. So maybe for any future customers you could check your information first.
February 2024
A trip to Hawaii with my 92-year-old mother and three generations
I was looking forward to whale watching, but my mother said she didn't want to go, possibly due to fatigue, so I requested to change it to the next day, and they were very accommodating.
On the way to the harbor, we saw a rainbow, which made me feel like we would meet the whales.
After setting sail, they met our expectations, and we saw them many times.
Watching them swim gracefully in the waters of Waikiki made me feel the essence of Hawaii.
At the end, we witnessed them spouting water and slapping their large tails on the surface of the sea.
Thank you for the wonderful experience.
2024年2月
92歳の母と三代世代のハワイ旅行️
楽しみにしていたホエールウォッチング、母が疲れからか行きたくないと言う事で、翌日に変更をお願いしたら配慮して下さりました。
港に向かう途中に虹を見たので、鯨に会える予感がしました。
出航後、期待に応えてくれて、何度も何度も見れました。
ワイキキの海を優雅に泳ぐ姿を見て、ハワイを感じました。
最後には潮を吹いて大きな尻尾を海水面に叩きつける様子も
感動をありがとう。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise with three generations. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed whale watching and the views from the ship. We hope to see you again soon. All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.
この度は私共のクルーズに三世代でお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。クジラの観測や船からの景色をお楽しみ頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。是非またお越し下さい。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
The dinner cruise on Star of Honolulu was awesome. The crew were very welcoming and efficient. The dancers were terrific-we really enjoyed them and how close to the audience they were. But the food was the best part. Crab legs, beef and chicken with all the trimmings. Wonderful experience. Would highly recommend.
When we boarded the boat, a wave came at just the right moment, and we got completely soaked (laughs). I participated with my two small children, and the tour guides were very friendly, talking a lot with the kids! It rained and got cold along the way, so parents might want to bring a hooded sweatshirt or raincoat. The moment we saw a large group of turtles and dolphins was truly moving! The kids were overjoyed!
船に乗り込む時波が来るタイミングで全身ずぶ濡れになりました(笑)
小さい子供2人連れての参加でしたが添乗員の方々とてもフレンドリーで子供達にもたくさん話しかけてくれました!
途中雨が降って寒かったので子持ちの方はフード付きのパーカーかカッパを持参したほうが良いかもしれません。。
カメやイルカの大群が見えた瞬間はとても感動!子供達も大喜びでした!
私たちは、あなたが私たちとの体験を楽しんでいただけたと聞いてとても嬉しいです。またすぐにお越しいただけることを楽しみにしています!
We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your experience with us, and we would love to have you back soon!
One of the joys of going to Hawaii is being able to see Presley. I have been a big fan since he was alive. I got to see him again this time. From a distance, this Presley looked quite similar to him. His physique, voice, and singing were nearly perfect. The venue was at the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, which is close to the hotel, and even better, there is a food court on the second floor of this building where we had dinner. He sang six songs, including "Blue Hawaii" and "My Way." His show can't be seen without going to Las Vegas, but this one is not inferior; at the end, you can take a photo together. I highly recommend it.
ハワイに行く一つの楽しみは、プレスリーに会えることです。彼が生きている頃から、大のファンでした。今回も会えました。今回のプレスリーは遠目には顔もよく似ていました。体形、声、歌も満点に近い存在でした。会場は ロイヤルハワイアンショッピングセンターにあり、ホテルから近くであり、さらにいいことはこの建屋の2階にはフードコートがあります、ここで夕食を済ませて行きました。ブルーハワイ、そして最後にマイウェーなど6曲も歌ってくれました。彼のショーはラスベガスに行かないと見れませんが、ここはそれに引け劣りません、最後には一緒に写真も撮ってくれます。おすすめです。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella Rockin' Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed performances like Elvis. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラ ロッキンショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。エルビスなど楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
The Luau was amazing, food was great and the entire show was so entertaining!! Me and my partner had a great time. I definitely recommend!
Enjoyed the day very much. Dinner was very good with so many choices - not just your average luau food. The Show itself was worth the price of admission. Our seats were so close to the stage we could feel the heat from the torches. It was a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend this tour to future Honolulu visitors.
Our driver was very friendly, and seemed to know a lot of information on the sites we were seeing in Honolulu. Was a very good way to visit the Arizona memorial - would definitely recommend visitors to Honolulu to check out this tour.
Can't say enough. From beginning to end. Easy pickup and drop off from location in Waikiki,
The whole experience from the friendly, accommodating staff. The hot off the grill burgers hit the spot .
Wanted to go s second time before leaving the island, but ran out of time.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Definitely book this one.
Mahalo to the crew
The driver kindly explained about Hanauma in English. They repeatedly mentioned what not to do, so I understood. Before entering Hanauma, they gave us life jackets at the cliff viewpoint. If you have any additional items, it's a good idea to mention them at this time. Once we arrived at Hanauma, we gathered with the same group of guests to pool together $25 for admission. I think it’s a good idea to bring a mat or something to relax on the beach in advance. It was very kind and I had a lot of fun snorkeling.
英語にはなりますがドライバーさんが丁寧にハナウマについて説明してくれます。
やってはいけないことは何度も言うので理解できました。
ハナウマに入る前に崖の展望台でライフジャケットをくれました。他の追加品があればこの時に言いましょう。
そしてハナウマに着いたら同じグループの客で集まって25ドルもまとめ合い、ハナウマに入場します。
ビーチで休むためのシートなどを事前に持っていくといいと思います。
すごく親切で楽しくスノーケリングを楽しめました。
Great place, second time I go there. Pretty spot quiet and peaceful with a lot of activities such as jenga, ping pong etc. They also have cool activities.
Highly recommend
It was a great experience! The activities were fun and educational! Great family environment! Wonderful performances, amazing performers, good food and drinks! The best activity and experience on our vacation! You have to go!
My husband and I had a good time on the cruise. The food was good and the show was fun!
You know how you can never quite describe the atmosphere, moments and beauty of something? That was this experience. From a long distance traveler- this was once in a lifetime. Tell everyone you know and bring them with you. 10/10.
I arrived a little early, and the staff greeted me, allowing me to take photos with the hula dancers, enjoy the ukulele, and have some drinks. The food was delicious as well. I think it would be nice to have a bit more Hawaiian cuisine. The show was wonderful, and I had a great time. I was seated in the second row, center, so I could see the performers' expressions clearly. I was also able to take a photo with Michael and Elvis at the end. It was a different kind of enjoyment compared to the hula show at the Hilton.
少し早めに到着しましたが、受付の方に声掛けいただき、フラダンサーとの写真撮影・ウクレレ・飲み物などの対応を受けました。
食事も美味しかったです。もう少しハワイらしい料理が多いと良いかなとは思います。
ショーもすばらしく楽しく過ごせました。場所も2列目真ん中で表情まではっきりと見えました。
マイケル・エルビスとも最後に写真を一緒にとれました。
ヒルトンのフラショーとは違う楽しみ方ができ楽しめました。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockaflor VIP Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the performances of Elvis, Michael, and the entertainment. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラVIPワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。エルビスやマイケルそして、エンターテインメントなど楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
The captains were very friendly and kind. There was a wide variety of snacks and drinks, and the spam onigiri was especially great.
I was also glad to catch a glimpse of the sea turtles.
Unfortunately, the snorkeling was quite crowded. Moving in a large group felt like being in a packed train, making it far from an enjoyable snorkeling experience. Other activities were fun, though.
キャプテンたちがとてもフレンドリーで親切でした。
スナック類やドリンクも豊富で、特にスパムおにぎりは最高でした。
ウミガメもちらっと見る事ができて良かったです。
残念なのはシュノーケリングの人口密度。大人数で一斉に移動するため、前後左右ぎっしりでぶつかりながらの移動。満員電車の中のようなシュノーケリングで楽しむというには程遠い感じです。その他のアクティビティは楽しかったです。
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Pacific Tour. Thank you very much for participating in the tour the other day. We appreciate your feedback and will consider it for improving our future tour offerings. We would be delighted if you could join us again on your next visit to Hawaii. We sincerely look forward to that day.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。先日はツアーにご参加頂きまして本当にありがとうございました。
頂きましたご意見は今度のツアー内容の向上に生かせればと考えて思います。
次回ハワイにお越しの際もぜひ天国の海までお超し頂けると嬉しいです。その日を心よりお待ちしております。
I booked this on a whim (had seen a few recommendations from a travel group on Facebook). I am so glad I did!!! This was hands down our favorite thing we did. Our trip to PCC included transportation there and back, which was convenient because we didn’t rent a car. From the time we were dropped at the center to the time we arrived back at our drop off spot in Waikīkī, we were impressed. The story telling, the interactive demonstrations, the hospitality and excitement of everyone working at the center was nothing less than amazing. We ate at the restaurant called Pounders for lunch, the service was excellent and the food was some of the best we had our whole time here. We both learned so much about the Polynesian Cultures and the end show “Ha breathe of life” is one of the best live performances we’ve gone to. Anyone visiting should definitely book this, you won’t be disappointed! We spent one day at PCC, but I think you could definitely spend multiple days and really immerse yourself in each culture and spend time participating in all the activities!
A couple in their 70s has experienced Hawaii several times in the past and is well aware of its charm. However, they have recently become more aware of their declining physical strength and decided to enjoy one last trip to Hawaii while they are still able to move around.
In previous trips, they prioritized visiting various tourist spots, and the only show they had seen was over a decade ago at the Polynesian Cultural Center. This time, they considered revisiting the center for its grand show, but due to the distance, they learned that there was a show very close to their hotel in Waikiki and decided to sign up for it on a whim.
To their surprise, the show turned out to be quite professional, featuring not only beautiful hula and intense Polynesian dances but also performances by impersonators of the late popular stars, Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. They realized that if this were the real deal, it would be incredibly difficult to obtain tickets even for a hefty sum, and they both agreed on that.
After the show, there was a meet-and-greet with the artists and a photo opportunity, which added to their experience. On the way back to the hotel, they felt that just being able to see such a show made the trip to Hawaii worthwhile, and they were very satisfied, especially when his wife showed off a photo of herself with the beloved "Presley."
70歳代の夫婦、ハワイ旅行は過去にも何度か体験してハワイの魅力を十分認識しておりますが、最近とみに体力の衰えを自覚するようになり、身体が動くうちにもう1度、と今回が最後のつもりでハワイ旅行を楽しんで来ました。
数年前までは、ハワイの色んな観光スポットを巡ることを優先していた関係で、ショーを鑑賞したのは10数年前の「ポリネシアカルチャーセンター」でのショーが1度きり。
今回の旅行でも、久し振りにそこを訪れて豪華ショーを鑑賞しようかとも思ったのですが、距離的にちょっときつかったので、ワイキキの宿泊ホテルからすぐ近くでもショーがあるのを知り、ちょっと覗いてみようかと軽い気持ちで申し込みました。
ところが、これがなかなか本格的なショーで、華麗なフラや激しいポリネシアンダンスだけでなく、今は亡き人気スター、エルビス・プレスリーやマイケル・ジャクソンのそっくりさんの歌やパフォーマンスまであって、しかもそれを中央前方のVIP席で鑑賞できるなんて、これが本物だったらン十万払ってもチケット入手は困難だろうなと家内とも納得し合ったりもして。
またショーが終わっての帰りには、出場アーティストたちとの握手会や記念撮影サービスなどもあって至れり尽くせり。
こんなショーを観れただけでも、ハワイに来た甲斐があったよね、とホテルへの帰り道、あこがれの"プレスリー"との2ショット写真を私に見せながら大満足の家内でした。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella Rockin' Show with your spouse. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the performances of Elvis, Michael, and the entertainment. We also appreciate your wonderful positive review. Please do visit us again. We look forward to welcoming you and your family when you come to Hawaii.
この度はロッカフラ ロッキンショーにご夫婦でご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。エルビスやマイケルそして、エンターテインメントなど楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。素敵なポジティブな口コミも有難うございます。是非またお越し下さい。ハワイにお越しの際には、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
I went for the first time this year. When we got on the boat, it was raining, but I was glad that it stopped by the time we arrived at the sandbar. The water was knee-deep in some areas, which made it enjoyable. We could also rent SUPs and had a great time. There was a Japanese-speaking guide who provided support. They took us snorkeling, and we were able to see plenty of turtles. The guide helped us, a couple in our 60s, with snorkeling, and we could just float around. I want to go again next year. I think it would be wonderful if it were sunny. It was already so great even with the rain and clouds, so I'm looking forward to going again next year. There is a website that checks the tide levels at the sandbar, so I recommend looking it up and choosing a day with low tide when making a reservation. It’s a wonderful world where you can experience the ocean in 360 degrees.
今年初めて行きました。
ボートに乗った時は、雨が降っていたけどサンドバーに到着したときは案がやんでよかった。
深さは膝ぐらいのところもあり楽しむことができました。
SUPなども借りることができ良い時間を過ごすことができます。
日本語を話すガイドがおりサポートしてくれます。
シュノーケリングに連れて行ってくれますが、亀が見放題の状態でした。
我々60代の夫婦の手を引いてシュノーケリングをさせてくれ浮かんでいるだけでよい状態でした。
来年も行きたい。快晴だったらどんなにいいだろうと思う。
雨曇りであれだけよかったので来年も行こうと楽しみにしています。
サンドバーの潮位を調べるサイトがあるので、予約するときはぜひ覗いて潮位の低い日を選ぶことをお勧めします。
360度海の中で体験できる素晴らしい世界です。
Aloha! This is the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating in the tour the other day. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour. We sincerely look forward to seeing you again next year, along with the honu (sea turtles).
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。先日はツアーにご参加頂きましてありがとうございました。
ツアーを楽しんで頂けたとお聞きし大変嬉しく思います。また来年お会いできる日をホヌたちとともに心よりお待ちしております。
I would do this again and again, the crew is wonderful and energetic just great people to spend the day with! Volleyball, burgers, snorkeling oh my!
Easy entry process, meet by dance troop and greeted by crew member. Scored a very nice table by the window. Staff were warm and friendly and our first free drink was delivered promptly. Food was good and plentiful and stayed out as long as people kept going up. Show was as expected with all staff taking part. We did the fireworks night which was fab. Only real complaint was with the Sunset, the sun didn't com out to play :).
We enjoyed the evening thank you
I was impressed by the packed program. I enjoyed a delicious buffet and had a great time at the show. The appearances of Elvis and Michael allowed me to take a trip down memory lane to my younger days.
盛りだくさんのプログラムに感動。美味しいビュッフェもたっぷり頂き、ショーも大いに楽しめました。エルビスやマイケルの登場で、若い頃にタイムスリップできました。
Thank you very much for visiting Rock-A-Bye Green Room Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your experience. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラグリーンルームワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
First, we had a meal and then enjoyed a hula dance. The food was delicious. My 7-year-old son was having a great time experiencing the hula dance. After that, there was a show. At first, it was entertaining, but while I know Michael from the impersonation contest, I didn't recognize the other person, so I couldn't find it funny, just noting that he had a lot of chest hair. It felt like an unknown guy was singing while showing off his chest hair. My son was fast asleep.
We ended up here because the boat got lost, but my son said he preferred the boat. For people in their 20s and 30s, the characters might feel too outdated. It just becomes a situation where you keep listening to old music you don't know.
It felt like tracing the history of Hawaiian music. Both my son and husband said the fire show was amazing.
最初お食事してフラダンスをします。
料理は美味しいです。
7歳の息子が楽しそうにフラダンス体験をしていました。
あとはショー。最初は面白かったのですが、
モノマネ大会マイケルは知ってますが、もう1人は知らないので、胸毛が凄いくらいで面白いと思えませんでした。
知らないおじさんが汗を書いて胸毛を出した歌ってるってなります。
息子は爆睡していました。
船が迷ってこちらにしましたが、
息子は船が良かったと言っていました。
20代30代の人は人物が古すぎて微妙かと。
まず誰やねんって知らない昔の音楽をただただ聞き続ける事になります。
ハワイの歴史音楽を辿っていくみたいな感じです。
ファイヤーショーは息子も夫もすごいといっていました。
Thank you very much for bringing your family to the Rockaflava VIP Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the luau buffet, hula dance experience, and Hawaiian show. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラVIPワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーに御家族でご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。ルアウブッフェのお食事、フラダンス体験そして、ハワイアンショーなど楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
We spent an entire day here. It was far too hot. It would have been much more enjoyable if It had been cooler.
The place itself is well laid out but it's a tourist trap.
Richard was our bus driver and although he wanted to give us as much information as he could, he repeated himself on several topics....I felt like saying to him that it's ok to be quiet on parts of the journey.
