This was a repeat activity for us so obviously we like it before. It is surprisingly peaceful once you are up in the air and the views are spectacular. I like to stick my arms out a la Superman; I figure this is the closest I'll ever get to feeling like I'm flying. The only negative is my wife didn't care for it the last time, so she just went as an observer (rides in the boat but doesn't parasail). She loves the boat ride so that works for her, but the crew doesn't let anyone go up solo so if you don't have a partner, you end up going up with some stranger. The crew is good at what they do and are very safety conscious.

This was the second time we've done the Starlight Luau. We liked it the first time and we weren't disappointed the second time around. The biggest plus is the food; it is varied and delicious. The performers are pretty good as well. The one negative is the setup; the tables are packed so everyone is crammed together like sardines. A little more elbow room would make this a 5 star review. We've been to other luau's that you need to take a 40 minute bus ride to get repeatedly bitten by bugs on the beach; this one has better food and far more convenience.

We participated as a couple. My wife was initially anxious about joining, but once we got into the enclosure, she found the sharks to be beautiful and realized they were a safe species that doesn't attack humans, so she enjoyed the unique experience.
Even though small fish were swimming nearby, the sharks showed no signs of wanting to eat them, which might have been a bit disappointing in terms of excitement. We both talked about wanting to see more dangerous sharks like great white sharks next time.
We brought a disposable underwater camera, but it was difficult to take pictures because of the waves. I wish we had bought a waterproof case for a digital camera so we could take a lot of pictures while looking at the screen.
夫婦で参加しました。
妻は当初参加に不安でしたが、檻に入ってみると鮫はきれいで、鮫は人を襲わない安全な種類と分かったので、珍しい体験を楽しんでいました。
鮫は小魚が近くを泳いでいても食べる気配なしで、迫力という点では、ちょっと物足りないかも。
夫婦二人とも次はホオジロザメのような危ない鮫を見たいねと話していました。

I participated with my husband’s parents and our family of three. Since there were three of us, I thought we would split into two and one, but we were able to ride together as a group of three. My fifth-grade daughter was scared, but it seems she had a lot of fun. The view from high up was amazing, and we were moved to see all of Waikiki. My husband’s parents, who are celebrating their 60th birthday, were also very happy. For $25, we had about 260 photos taken with 2GB of storage. They turned out really well, and I’m glad we bought them. Since it was for five people, I think we got a particularly large number of photos. While we were on the boat, we also encountered a turtle. We were able to see a ray dancing around as well. It was a lot of fun.

The waves were high, so it's advisable to take motion sickness medication. On the boat, I was swaying, and during the experience, I was swaying with the waves as well. When I saw the shark, I was surprised and scared, even though I knew it was coming. They provided a Japanese explanation for the Japanese guests. Since there wasn't anyone among the boat staff who could speak Japanese fluently, basic English conversation skills are necessary for communication.

The dolphins were really smart and cute with high IQs.
This time, due to the strong yen, I participated in the most expensive course. It was a fun activity filled with smiles, allowing me to interact directly with the dolphins in a way that I probably couldn't experience in Japan.
I used a limited-time coupon from alan1 to get a DVD with the photos I purchased, so I was able to bring home both memories and a video souvenir, which made me very satisfied.

It was fun and felt like a resort, but since six groups were boarding, we were swaying for over an hour, and the seasickness was intense. Almost everyone got sick. Moreover, we were the sixth group out of six, and when we took off, I felt nauseous and nervous, so my condition was at its worst.
However, once we actually took off, it felt really good, and there was absolutely no fear, so my boyfriend, who has a fear of heights, seemed to enjoy it. But whether we actually flew to the specified height, I couldn't tell at all from a layman's perspective! (laughs)
At the end, we bought the photos taken by the instructor, but they didn't give us our change back. Even though we gave a tip separately...

The explanation before horseback riding was just a simple Japanese video, so I was honestly quite anxious, but once I got on the horse, all my worries disappeared.
I understood that I needed to follow the horse in front of me, so when the horse in front stopped, I stopped too. When it moved, I moved. All the horses were very smart and didn’t stray off course at all. They are really clever!
This time, in addition to the four of us, there were two Westerners participating individually, making a total of six people plus one guide for the two-hour course.
The guide only knew simple Japanese necessary for horseback riding, like “kick with both feet” and “pull,” so all the explanations about the movie filming along the way were in English. I thought that maybe Japanese people tend to sign up for half-day courses, as there were not many participants in the two-hour course.
At the end, we passed by another group of about 20 people, who were mostly Japanese. They had a Japanese guide. If you want to hear explanations in Japanese, this course might be better for you.
The scenery was absolutely amazing, and the two hours flew by! Many movies, including "Lost," "Jurassic Park," and "Godzilla," were filmed here, and we also passed the filming location for the remake of "Journey to the Center of the Earth," which is scheduled for release in 2012.
It’s quite far from Waikiki to Kualoa Ranch, but if I have the chance, I would love to join the two-hour course again!
乗馬前の説明は簡単な日本語ビデオを見るだけだったので、正直かなり不安でしたが、お馬さんに乗ったら不安も吹っ飛びました。
前の馬についていくことをわかっているので、前の馬が止まったら自分も止まる。動いたら動く。とどの馬もとっても頭がよく、激しくコースを外れることはありません。
本当におりこうさんたちです。
今回、私たち4人のほかに西洋人2名がそれぞれ一人参加で、計6人+ガイド1名で2時間コースを楽しみました。
ガイドさんは「両足蹴って」とか「引っ張って」とか乗馬に必要な簡単な日本語しかわからない方だったので、途中の映画撮影についての説明などはすべて英語です。日本人はほとんどの方が半日コースなどに申し込まれるからか、日本人の2時間コースの参加は少ないのかなと思いました。
最後、ほかのグループとすれ違いましたが、20名ぐらい?の大人数でほぼ日本人のようでした。こちらは日本人ガイドさんがいらっしゃいました。説明を日本語で聞きたいのならこちらのコースがいいのかもしれません。
景色はとっても最高で、あっという間の2時間でした!

This is a really convenient luau. In good walking distance or a cab ride away from all the hotels and incredibly delicious food. Be sure to get the Golden Circle, because we did and we had excellent front row type of seating. CHECK IN EARLY TO BYPASS THE CROWD!!!
Some bad "Cons" about this is:
there is no good/ romantic picture taking scenery, chairs are situated very close to eachother so your banging elbows with the next person, its on the top of a parking lot structure and its just surrounded by a bunch of buildings.
Staff was friendly, water is always provided, the Food is BETTER tasting from all the other Luau's I have been too.. so that is a plus.

I wasn't sure about a Luau IN Waikiki but this one was really enjoyable. You don't have to take a bus 45 minutes each way or more outside of Waikiki, as you have to do with the other Luau's, which is a real plus! The food was excellent with a big assortment so there's really something that everyone would like. There's not really a bad seat in the house either. Of course we were sitting front row and it was pretty cool. Worth the extra bucks, in my opinion. The performers were really top notch. I'm not sure what I expected but they definitely exceeded anything I could have imagined. Definitely the best fire-dancers I've ever seen and I live here, so I've seen many. The whole experience was really fun and impressive. A great way to experience the culture of the islands.

I've been on other snorkeling cruises but was REALLY IMPRESSED with the boat and the crew. The boat was very clean, open and comfortable. Having great his and her bathrooms was a nice plus as well. The crew were fun, informative and professional. They make you feel very comfortable and taken care of. Swimming with the turtles was a total treat. There's a crew member in the water with you the entire time and they are not only looking out for your safety but are answering questions about the fish, turtles and the total area. In addition, they are educating you so you really "swim" away knowing more than when you came. The sailing portion was really relaxing and peaceful. It's great to see Waikiki & Diamond Head Crater from the water and being able to leave on this trip from the Hilton is a real plus. Even the food and snacks were good. I would definitely recommend this trip.

I experienced this after being recommended by a friend who went to Hawaii the year before last. The opportunity to interact with dolphins is quite rare, so it was really great. The Royal Course foot push (where two dolphins push your feet) was so much fun. I tried it twice with my companion, but we couldn't do it well and found it really difficult.
There were also plans to interact with sea lions and Hawaiian leis, and time flew by quickly. At the entrance, you receive a wristband with the times for each program, but the times listed can vary; some are the check-in deadlines (30 minutes before the meeting time) while others are the start times, which can lead to a lot of waiting and rushing. It might be a good idea to confirm the meeting and start times with a staff member who speaks Japanese after receiving the wristband.

I was nervous until we took off, but the beautiful view of Waikiki and the round rainbow we saw when looking down were amazing!
Since we understood English, we were able to enjoy it, but it might be a bit inconvenient for those who don't speak English. They speak quickly, and I think you might wonder what they are saying.

I participated in the Japanese guide's time slot.
I recommend it for those who can't snorkel or dive.
I joined for my 5-year-old son.
We could see sharks and turtles, and we received a pamphlet (in Japanese!) with a list of possible sea creatures we might see, so my son was quite happy comparing the pamphlet with what we saw on the ocean floor.
However, the diving time is a bit long at 45 minutes, so towards the end, it can get a little boring.
Also, it felt like the air conditioning was a bit too strong, so I recommend bringing warm items like a shawl or cardigan.
The staff at the dock were very kind and treated my son very nicely, which was great.

The session I participated in had only two other guests, so I was able to interact with the dolphins a lot!
I was really looking forward to swimming while holding onto the dolphin's dorsal fin, but it seems I misunderstood the course details, as that wasn't included. Instead, I got to lie on the dolphin's back and swim while holding hands! I can't express how happy I felt.
I usually don't buy photos sold at tourist spots, but since the kiss photo with the dolphin could only be taken from the photographer's position, and there was a coupon for a DVD from Alan1.net, I decided to buy one photo and received the DVD.
I'm currently enjoying the afterglow while watching the DVD.
By the way, I’m an adult and can’t swim, but I was able to float with a life jacket, and most of the activities were in a shallow pool where I could stand. So, it was fine. There were times when I had to swim in the pool, but if you're like me and don't have a fear of water, I think you'll manage just fine.

My new husband and I booked a private ride with the Hawaii Polo Club while on our honeymoon. I've been on several other guided horseback trail rides in the past, but this was a little different. For one thing, the horses are actually polo-horses, not the standard "follow-the-leader" horses of a typical ranch. Because of this, you are better off if you have at least a little experience in handling horses. There were a few times that loud noises or unfamiliar things on the path caused some skittishness.
One thing that made me a little uncomfortable was that my activity voucher said we would need to sign a liability waiver before the ride. I assume this is a standard practice, but the staff at the club just saddled up our horses, and off we went. No forms, no waivers, they didnt even tell us their names, nor did they ask ours. Good thing (for them) our slightly skittish horses didnt dump us on our heads.

It was a trip to Hawaii for me, my son, and my 75-year-old mother. However, since my mother's legs were not in good condition before departure, my son and I participated in optional activities separately from her. She joined the submarine tour alone.
The transportation service was said to be kind and attentive. Since the explanation was in Japanese, it was easy to understand and enjoy. She was able to see turtles and many fish swimming.
Additionally, she noticed that Cessnas and boats were intentionally sunk in the fish tanks, where divers were seen diving. For small children, elderly people, or those who want to avoid getting sunburned at the sea, I recommend the submarine and similar activities. Since it's Hawaii, please make sure to see the fish swimming.
Those who have experienced snorkeling or sea walking might find it a bit lacking.

シュノーケリングやシーウオークを体験された方は、少し物足りないかもしれません。
