Oahu
I didn't receive the VIP treatment I was expecting, but I appreciated how kindly everyone was treated, regardless of their category.
The show featuring impersonators of Elvis and Michael was, of course, impressive, but the local female singers also showcased remarkable vocal talent, making it a worthwhile experience. Among them, the final act with the fire knife was thrilling; I was worried they might get burned, but it was executed perfectly—truly impressive! Good job!!
The show's progression followed the calendar year, and the deep admiration for 'Iz' from Hawaii, who appeared on the screen at the end, made the entire performance even more moving.
期待していたほどのVIP待遇は受けませんでしたが、どのカテゴリーの人に対しても親切に対応されていたのは好感がもたれました。
プレスリーやマイケルのそっくりさんによるショーは、言わずもがなですが、地元の女性歌手の歌唱力も目を見張るものがあり、見応え十分でした。
中でも、最終演目のファイヤーナイフは、迫力満点で、やけどしてしまわないかとヒヤヒヤしましたが、完璧にこなされ、まさにあっぱれ!Good job‼︎
ショーの展開が暦年を追った演出になっており、最後にスクリーンに登場したハワイ出身の『イズ/IZ』に対する深い敬愛がひしひしと感じられ、ショー全体がより感動的なものに仕上がっていました。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella VIP Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the introductions of Elvis, Michael, and Iz from Hawaii, as well as the 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、ハワイ出身のイズのスクリーンでの紹介と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。
It was good to go early as by the end we were sweating, couldn't imagine it being any later!
I signed up for this tour because I wanted to see traditional Hawaiian hula dancing and fire dancing. Before the show, there was a buffet-style dinner, but with the staff's signal, everyone rushed to get their food, creating a huge line. As a result, there wasn't much time, and it felt like we just made one round through the buffet. The roast beef was delicious.
The show started with hula dancing, followed by a medley of impersonators of Elvis and Michael Jackson, fire dancing, and songs from local singers, which was quite enjoyable. After the show, I was able to take pictures with the performers, which made for a nice memory.
Overall, I felt that just the show would have been enough.
今回ハワイの伝統フラダンスやファイヤーダンスが見たかったのでこのツアーを申し込みました。ショーの前にビュッフェスタイルの夕食がありましたが、スタッフの合図とともに皆一斉に料理を取りにいくため、すごい行列となり時間も無くなりビュッフェといっても一通り1周して終わりといった感じでした。料理内容はローストビーフが美味しかったです。
ショーはフラダンスから始まり、プレスリーとマイケルジャクソンのそっくりさんのメドレーとファイヤーダンスや地元の歌手?の歌などでまずまず楽しめました。終了後出演者と写真を撮っていただよい記念になりました。
総合的な感想は、ショーだけでよかったと思いました。

This was a brilliant adventure, from the moment you get in line to enter and get your lei, to when you find yourself on stage dancing the Hula. The activities are great with a number of free cultural classes in the “kitchen” and around the grounds. Great photo opportunities as the sun sets, with great shots of the ocean, the city if Honolulu, and the mountain ranges.
I would recommend this for any other couple, or family regardless if there are or are not children.
The reservation process was smooth, and the staff was excellent⭐︎ It gets quite wet, which is also great. The music, the wind, and the sea made for an incredibly happy time. My high school son and my 84-year-old parents were both thrilled⭐︎
予約もスムーズに出来て、スタッフも最高⭐︎
かなり、濡れます。それも最高。
音楽と風と海 最高に幸せな時間でした。
高校生の息子も、84才の,両親も感激してました⭐︎
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!
I took the catamaran for the first time with an online reservation. The color of the sea when you go out into the open water is incredibly beautiful, even more so than what you see from the beach. I was worried about getting seasick as the waves got bigger, but the splashes of water were refreshing, and the wind felt great, making it a wonderful experience. You can order drinks, so please bring cash. The hour and a half passed by in no time. For those who haven't tried it yet, I highly recommend it!
ネット予約で初めてカタマラン号に乗りました。
浜辺で見る海よりも、沖に出て見る海の色は最高に綺麗でした。
波が大きくなると船酔いも心配でしたが、波飛沫も新鮮で風も気持ちよくて、とても良い経験ができました。
飲み物は注文できますので現金をお持ちくださいね。1時間30分があっという間に過ぎてしまいました。
まだ乗ったことのない方、絶対におすすめです!
ご経験を共有していただき、ありがとうございます。またお会いできることを楽しみにしています。
Thanks so much for sharing your experience with us. We hope to see you again soon.
Just a short distance from the Marriott Hotel in Ko Olina.
We walked along the beautiful coastline and arrived at the marina.
There were about 30 people on board.
We were the only Japanese, but there was a nice couple on their honeymoon.
There were also families with children.
We enjoyed conversations, even with our limited language skills.
Of course, the sunset cruise was amazing.
The sunset was beautiful.
The staff were wonderful and took many photos for us.
I’m looking forward to coming back next year!
コオリナのマリオットホテルからすぐ近く。
綺麗な海岸を歩いてマリーナに到着。
30人ほど乗船。
日本人は私たち夫婦のみでしたが、新婚旅行のナイスカップル。
家族連れの人たち、子供達。
カタコトながら会話を楽しみました。
もちろんサンセットクルーズは最高。
綺麗な夕日でした。
スタッフの人たちも素敵で何枚も写真を撮ってくれました。
また来年も期待です!
The weather was somewhat lacking, but the sun came out occasionally, making it a decent day. The guide on the boat spoke Japanese clearly, so I felt reassured that I could hear the explanations well. At the sandbar, the sea sparkled beautifully, and it was very moving. It was amusing to watch the beach volleyball match between the participants, which turned into a Japan-US competition. (I was thinking to myself, "You went to the beach, and you're happy about that?" haha)
I wasn't expecting much from the hamburger for lunch, but it was very delicious and the portion was just right; it might have been the best part of the tour!
I participated in the last snorkeling session where I could stand, but since it was a few meters deep, I didn't join in to accommodate my family who can't swim. I recommend understanding that snorkeling will be in places where you can't stand before participating. Also, the large shuttle bus was comfortable for both trips, which was nice.
今一な天候でしたが時より太陽も出てまあまあな天気でした
船上でのガイドさんは日本語でかつ良く通る声なのでしっかり説明が聞けて安心できました。
サンドバーの所では海がキラキラ輝いてとても感動しました。
ツアー参加者同士のビーチバレーが日米対抗になっていて見ていて面白かった
(海に行ったんだろ?そんなので喜んでどうするって自分に突っ込んてましたがw)
昼食のハンバーガーは期待していなかったのですが、とてもおいしく量も丁度良くツアーの中でこれが一番良かったかなw
一番最後のシュノーケリングは背が立つレベルなら参加しましたが、数メートルあるそこそこ深い所の為、金槌の家族に合わせ参加しませんでした。背が立たたない場所でのシュノーケリングという事を理解した上で参加されることをお勧めします。
あと送迎のバスが大型で往復ともゆったりできたのは良かったです。
We had this Snorkeling Adventure June1988 on our Honeymoon. We are Happy Uncle Bob’s Snorkeling Adventure 36 years later our Honeymoon with our 2 kids to share our Love June 2024.
Looking forward to do this again with our grandkkds someday.
Awesome crew. Perfect Sandbar
Thank you for the Memories♥️♥️
First, we enjoyed a buffet together, and then we moved on to watch the Rock-a-Flash show! When Michael Jackson's song played, I got really excited (laughs).
最初にみなさんでビュッフェをいただいてから、移動してロック・ア・フラショーを鑑賞しました!マイケルジャクソンの歌がかかったときは、テンション上がりました(笑)
Thank you very much for attending the Rockaflava Original Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. I am confident that you enjoyed everything, including Michael and the entertainment. We sincerely look forward to your visit again when you come to Hawaii.
この度はロッカフラオリジナル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。マイケルそして、エンターテインメントも全て楽しめたかと確信しております。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 Heaven's Sea Tour was something I had been wanting to experience for a long time after seeing it online! We swam with the instructor leading the way, and I was moved to see a sea turtle up close along the way!
天国の海ツアーはずっとネットで見ていて体験したかったツアーでした!インストラクターの方を先頭に泳いで行き、途中ウミガメを近くで見れて感動しました!
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Please come back to encounter the sea turtles again. A hui hou!
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ありがとうございました。
またウミガメに遭いにお越しください。A hui hou!
The weather was cloudy, but it cleared up when we arrived. We were able to see many turtles up close, and they almost came into contact with us, which made us hurriedly back away... but we had a great time snorkeling. Additionally, we enjoyed our free time with activities like stand-up paddleboarding, which is suitable for children, and I think the staff's attentiveness provides a sense of security.
天気は曇りだったけど、到着したら晴れました
亀さんもたくさん見られて、近くまできてくれ、危うく接触しそうになりかけ慌てて離れましたが。。。 大変楽しくシュノーケルできました。
また、Stand uppaddleなどの自由時間も楽しく過ごせ、子供の体験にも向いているほど、スタッフの気配りも安心できるかと思います。
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. We look forward to seeing you again, along with the sea turtles. A hui hou!
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した。
またお会いできる日をウミガメとともにお待ちしております。A hui hou!
This was a great experience. The performers and all staff were professional and made sure we had a good time. Food portions were perfect so that we weren't super stuffed but full enough. Beautiful food presentation. Hats off to the culinary team and chef!!!! This was a memorable experience and the interactive dance for everyone at the end was a perfect way to end the dinner cruise. Only one recommendation would be to have air conditioning in the boat. Other than that, the night was amazing!!
The Royal Hawaiian Center is quite spacious, so I struggled to reach the fourth floor, but I managed to arrive a bit early. Since I had made a reservation in advance, I showed my passport at the counter for identification and completed the check-in. Communication in Japanese wasn't very smooth, but I was somehow guided to my seat at the buffet-style dining area. I received a welcome drink and was greeted with Hawaiian dance, allowing me to feel the atmosphere of Hawaii.
As it was buffet-style, participants were called in turn to serve food onto their plates and then return to their seats to eat. Being a buffet, I could choose as much of my favorite dishes as I wanted. The roast beef was cut by the chef from a large chunk of meat. All the dishes were delicious, but the pineapple served at the table was the best. To enjoy the tropical vibe, I ordered a Chi Chi drink. The dining time was set longer, allowing me to finish my meal comfortably.
When it was time for the show, the staff guided us to our seats, and the show began. The stage was spacious, and the lighting was professional. The venue was lively with performances by impersonators of Elvis and Michael, hula dancing by dancers, and ethnic performances involving fire. Elvis even came down to the audience during the show and shook hands with us, which made me laugh because he looked so much like the real Elvis. He brought laughter to the audience with his talk at various points. Although I didn't understand much English, the enjoyable time flew by, and it was a very satisfying show. This is not just a hula dance show; it incorporates advanced Hawaiian elements into the entertainment, so those participating should keep that in mind.
ロイヤルハワイアンセンターは広い為、4階にたどり着くのに苦労したが、何とか時間前に到着。事前予約していたので、カウンターで本人確認の為パスポートを見せて受付完了。日本語でのコミュニケーションは、あまり上手に伝わらなかったが、何とかバイキング形式の席に案内され着席。ウェルカムドリンクをもらう。ハワイアンダンスの歓迎を受け、ハワイの雰囲気を感じることができた。バイキング形式の為、参加者は順番に呼ばれて料理を皿に盛り、席に戻って食事。バイキングなので好きな料理を好きなだけチョイス。ローストビーフは大きな肉の塊からシェフが切ってくれた。どの料理も美味しかったが、テーブルに出されていたパイナップルが一番だった。南国気分を味わう為ドリンクはチチを注文。食事の時間は長めに設定されていて、余裕をもって完食。ショーの時間になると係の人が席に案内してくれてショーがスタート。ステージも広く照明も本格的。エルビス.マイケルらのそっくりさんによる歌、ダンサーによるフラダンス、火を使った民族的な出し物などで会場は大いに盛り上がった。エルビスはショーの途中、観客席まで降りて来て握手までしてくれた。よく似ているので、笑ってしまった。所々トークで会場に笑いをもたらしていた。(自分はあまり英語の理解ができなかったが)楽しいひと時はあっという間だったが、大満足のショーだった。フラダンス主体のショーではなく、先進的なハワイ要素を取り込んだエンターテイメントなので参加される方はお間違えなく。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella VIP Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the luau buffet, as well as the performances by Elvis, Michael, and the 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、エルビスやマイケルそして、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 had a perfectly fun day! We rented bikes and snorkeling gear and flippers, rode to Lanikai beach (about a 29 minute ride), saw some turtles and fish. Then we came back, got boogy boards and enjoyed kalilua beach. Had some lunch did some souvenir shopping.
Our only complaint would be the tour bus driver who picked us up. He asked us where we were from and then said something about Biden being born there so we would have to walk. My husband asked him not to bring politics into our tour. He made another joke about our state and told us it was a long walk back. Then he told us there was a password (Hawaiian word) and that we couldn’t ride if we couldn't say it. Then he switched us to another bus to come back on. We were relieved.
In the early morning at Hanauma Bay, I never expected it to be this cold. I did go into the water once, but it was so cold that I gave up quickly. I was really shocked that there were hardly any fish around. When I visited in the past, it was in the afternoon, so it was warm and there were plenty of fish to enjoy! Is there no tour available in the afternoon? I felt that it has become increasingly difficult to enter Hanauma Bay lately. The driver was kind and stopped by Leonard's Kitchen for us on the way back.
早朝にハナウマ湾へ
まさかこんなに寒いとは思ってもみませんでした。
一回は海に入ったものの寒すぎてすぐにギブ。
魚もほとんど見当たらなくめちゃショック。
過去に訪れた時はお昼からだったので暖かかったのか魚もたくさんいて楽しめたのに!
お昼からのツアーは無いのでしょうか?
最近はますますハナウマ湾に入るのが難しくなってきてることを実感しました。
ドライバーの方は親切で帰りにカハラモールにあるレナーズキッチンカーに寄ってもらいました。
Five years ago, when I went to Waianae to snorkel, I didn't have fins, and it was difficult to return to the boat. However, this time I had fins, so I was able to enjoy seeing fish and sea turtles up close. Additionally, I was lucky enough to encounter dolphins!
The best part is that you can board from a hotel in Waikiki, which makes good use of your time. However, there is no Japanese guide, so it would be great if you could go with someone who understands English. I was with my daughter, which was helpful. I think it would be nice to have a sign with the same explanations even without a guide.
5年前に、ワイアナエまで行きシュノーケルしたときはフィンがなく
船まで戻るのが大変でしたが、こちらはフィンがあったので、とても楽しく魚やウミガメを近くでみることができました。
さらにラッキーなことにイルカにも遭遇しました!
何よりワイキキのホテルから乗船できるので時間が有効につかえますよ。
ただ、日本語ガイドさんはいないので英語がわかる人と行けるといいですね。娘と一緒だったので助かりましたが。
ガイドさんがいなくても、同じ内容の説明プラカードがあればいいのに、と思います。
Thanks to the support, even those who can't swim were able to enjoy snorkeling. Thank you very much.
サポートをしていただいたので、泳げない人でも
シュノーケリングを楽しむことができました。
ありがとうございました。
Aloha! Thank you for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Mahalo!
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーご参加ありがとうございました。
マハロ!
I felt very relieved to participate in the tour as Japanese was also understood. The sandbar was about knee-deep, but the scenery was beautiful and it was the best. It was a bit disappointing that it rained in the morning, making the water a little murky, but the sea was still beautiful. The hamburger we ate on the water was also very delicious.
日本語も通じて非常に安心してツアーに参加できました。
サンドバーでは膝ぐらいでしたが、景色も綺麗で最高でした。
当日朝が雨で少し水が濁っていて残念でしたが、綺麗な海でした
海上で食べるハンバーガーもとても美味しかったです
Overall outstanding!!!!!!!!!! Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome view!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome activity! This is my second time booking captain bob’s and I can’t tell you enough how great it is, you would need to experience it for yourself! From the start, the staff are very welcoming and keep you entertained throughout the entire experience. They take the time to go around to chat with everyone, making it a comfortable excursion. Although they don’t do anything specific for birthdays, they still made sure to sing her a happy birthday! Book it, you won’t regret it!
I enjoyed the beautiful sea at Sandbar. We also saw sea turtles while sailing, and we were able to see sea turtles while snorkeling as well. The hamburgers were delicious, and the weather was great.
サンドバーではキレイな海を楽しめました。また、航行中にウミガメも見れて、シュノーケリングでもウミガメを見ることができました。ハンバーガーも美味しく、天気にも恵まれてよかったです。
We are here celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary and were looking forward to the sunset sail. It was absolutely amazing! The drinks were great and it was very relaxing. The staff were very attentive and polite. If we ever come back to Waikiki, we will definitely do this sunset cruise again and tell anyone we know that will be visiting here to hit up Moana Sunset Cruise.
what a better way to end an early early am hike then with a delicious sweet treat! best tour pairing ever
Easy to book, so nice they have the pick up / drop off so you can enjoy your evening safely!
The champagne toast was so fun for an anniversary evening, we loved our night!
Great evenings, lots of laughter and fun learning experiences in the beginning that was a fun way to start the luau!
perfect pair after a relaxing pool day, delish cuisine and lots of fun happening on board!
Really awesome experience, the workers give it their all!
The experience was awesome! We got to learn and experience a lot of what the native Polynesian cultures were like. Many of the staff are actually university students who help fund most of their education through working here so that is nice to know.
The Buffet was the biggest Buffet hall and selection that I have ever seen- there was live music too and it was all just beautiful. The food was really good too!
The Fire Dance show was just an amazing performance. All the people responsible for making this were so skilled. It looked like everyone was having a great time.
