Paradise Cove is the very best Luau on the Hawaiian Islands. Veltra made reservations so easy and were excellent to work with. I felt very confident in them to provide a memory filled adventure. I highly recommend them.

The show was truly wonderful, and the children were very satisfied. However, the food... it wasn't delicious, and perhaps because it was slow, there was very little food, so I couldn't eat at all.

It's hard to go alone, so I took a tour. 個人では行きにくいからツアー

Reviewed by: Aloha

After being asked by the female guide about my hometown and how many times I've been to Hawaii, we boarded the bus and departed a bit late. The guide was somewhat stern. Her explanations were fast-paced and lacked consideration. The food wasn't delicious (in my opinion), but my husband said it was just okay. The show was good; I was glad I had high expectations for that. On the way back, unlike the outbound bus, we shared the bus with people from other tours. The air conditioning was very strong, so please be sure to bring a jacket.

ガイドの女性に出身地？ハワイは何度目？と聞かれた後バスに乗り込み遅れ気味で出発。
少し険のあるガイドさんでしたね。説明が早口、気配り無しでした。
食事は美味しくはなかった（私）夫はまずまずと申しておりました。ショーは良かったですねこれは期待して良かった。
帰りは行きのバスとは違い他のツアーの人達と混乗です。バスは冷房ガンガン是非上着を持参してください。

A trip to Hawaii to show appreciation to my elderly parents!
My parents participated in this option last time, and when I asked them where they wanted to go this time, the only place they wanted to visit again was the Polynesian Cultural Center.
I had been to Hawaii several times, but I had never been there, so it was my first time accompanying them.
Before going, I thought it was a bit childish, but the Japanese guides were very kind, and we enjoyed the activities at each station. Hearing about the center's background made me apologize in my heart for underestimating it until now.
The final show was truly impressive! I was deeply moved by the power and passion of the performance.
The only regret I have is that the meal took too long, and we couldn't participate in the backstage tour.
Next time, I want to take my children and go again.

年老いた両親への親孝行を兼ねてのハワイ！！
両親は前回このオプションに参加し、今回行きたい所はと尋ねてたところ
唯一、もう一度行きたいと言ったのがポリネシアンカルチャーセンターでした。
自分は何度かハワイに来ていましたが、一度も行った事がなかったので初めて同行しました。
行く前は子供騙し所と少しバカにしてましたが、日本語ガイドの皆さんは大変親切で
各ポーションでのアクティビティーは楽しめました。ここの成り立ちを聞いて
今までバカにしていてすみませんと、心の中でお詫びしました。
何と言っても最後のショー！あの迫力と熱演には只々感動の一言。
唯一心残りは食事に時間がかかり、バックステージツアーに参加できなかった事。
次回は子供を連れてもう一度行きたいと思います。

Best decision!

Reviewed by: Sue

In Honolulu for business, I had just one day free and wanted to make the best of it. Ending the day with the Chief's Luau was the best decision I could have made. The show was the best part, really phenomenal entertainment and well worth the price. The ride out to the venue held spectacular views. Loved the whole experience.

I participated in the Twilight Standard tour with transportation on November 23. The guide Hiroe on the way was very informative! It was a lot of fun! The evening at the Polynesian Cultural Center was magical. The staff were all students who greeted us with smiles. The dinner was served buffet-style, and the meat was cut right in front of us! It was very delicious ( ^ω^ ). The show was dynamic, and even the standard course was plenty enjoyable!

The show was wonderful! ショーがすばらしい☆

Reviewed by: NAMI

I participated in an evening tour with a friend. First, on the bus to the Polynesian Cultural Center, the guide provided various interesting explanations about Hawaii, which was both enjoyable and educational. They even used an iPad to show images for better understanding. The buffet wasn't specifically Polynesian cuisine, but it was a typical buffet and delicious.

The highlight was definitely the show! I had a great time! Although it was the standard course, we were able to sit in the third row from the front, which made it feel very immersive! The show has a storyline, so it kept us engaged throughout. There was a pamphlet distributed on the bus with a summary, making it easy to follow the story. After the show, there was time to take photos with the performers, and I was able to take a picture with the main star.

On the way back, there was no guide, but there was someone directing us in the bus parking lot, which was reassuring. I was able to relax and sleep comfortably on the return bus. The dances in the show really made me feel the essence of Hawaii, so it's definitely worth participating!

友人と二人で夕方出発のコースに参加しました。
まずポリネシア文化センターに着くまで、バスのなかでガイドさんがハワイに関するいろいろな説明をしてくれておもしろかったし勉強にもなりました。iPadを使って画像で説明してくれたりもしました。ビュッフェは特にポリネシア文化の料理などとゆうわけではなく、よくあるようなビュッフェでしたが美味しかったです。
そして一番の楽しみのショー☆とっても楽しめました‼︎スタンダードコースでしたが前から3列目に座ることができ、迫力を感じました‼︎ショーがストーリー立てられているので飽きることなく楽しめます。行きのバスの中で配られるパンフレットにあらすじが書かれているので話は簡単に理解できました。ショーのあとには出演者と写真を撮れる時間があり、主役の方と写真を撮ることができました。
帰りはガイドさんはいなかったのですが、バスの駐車場で誘導して下さる方がいたので安心ですし、帰りのバスでは車内でゆっくり眠ることができました。
ショーの中のダンスがハワイを感じることができるので参加する価値ありです‼︎‼︎

I was looking forward to the Polynesian show, but we spent an hour around the hotel before departing for our destination. The highway was congested, and when we arrived, there were only 30 minutes left until the show. The woman who guided us got off the bus and immediately walked into the venue without looking back, only turning around to say something in a quiet voice that I couldn't hear. I couldn't help but think, "Can't you hear me?" My mood soured. After eating, we were told to take our seats in 30 minutes. The food felt like leftovers! They had already started cleaning up, and there was no room to relax. The tour guide was the worst. It's a shame because the show was good.

I wanted to see it at least once. 一度は見ておきたかった。

Reviewed by: さこちゃん

This was my third time in Hawaii, but my husband really wanted to go, so we made a reservation through this site. The bus guide was quite talkative. He seemed a bit harsh at times, but it was okay. There were no issues with the sightseeing information along the way, the park, or the explanations on the return bus.

Inside the park, a student from a nearby university accompanied us and provided explanations in Japanese. We had a lot of fun dancing hula, watching shows, and riding boats. However, we could hardly understand the English being spoken during the show, so we secretly listened to a guide who was leading a school trip translating for the students, which was amusing.

After the park tour, we had a meal. We opted for the deluxe option, and it felt like it was about what we expected. The roast beef was delicious, but it was quite large, enough to fill us up on its own.

The advantage of the deluxe option was the quality of the show seating, where we could really feel the dancers' expressions and the heat of the flames up close. Even without understanding the words, we enjoyed it thoroughly. The ice cream we had in between was also delicious. I noticed that many people mentioned the return bus in their experiences, but we had no issues at all getting back.

After returning home, I realized that the deluxe option was supposed to come with a DVD souvenir. I wonder where we could have received that?

ハワイは３回目でしたが、夫が、是非行きたいということで、このサイトで予約しました。よく喋るバスのガイドさん。少々あたりがキツイ感じでしたが、まぁいいかな。途中の観光案内や、園内、帰りのバスの説明などは問題ありませんでした。
園内は、近くの大学の学生さんがずっとついて日本語案内してくれます。フラを踊ったり、ショウを見たりボートに乗ったりでかなり楽しめました。ただ、私達はショウで話している英語がほとんどわからなくて、たまたま修学旅行を引率していたガイドさんが、学生さんに訳して聞かせているのをこそっと聞いていました笑。
園内ツアーの後食事になるのですが、デラックスにしていましたが、まぁこのくらいなんだろうな、という感じ。ローストビーフがおいしかったですが、大きくてそれだけでいっぱいになるほど。
ただ、デラックスのよさはショウの席のよさにあり、ダンサーさんの表情から炎の熱さまで本当に間近に感じました。言葉はわからなくても、充分に楽しめます。合間で食べたアイスも美味しかったです。体験談には、帰りのバスについて書いている方が多かったので気になったのですが、全く問題なく帰る事ができました。
帰国してから気づいたのですが、デラックスだとDVDのお土産付き、だったはず。一体どこでもらえたんでしょうか？

A very filling meal and a show that the whole family can enjoy. かなり満腹＆家族で楽しめるショー

Reviewed by: Tokumei

This time, I booked the deluxe plan with transportation. When I arrived at the meeting point, there were many buses lined up, and I wasn't sure which one to take, so I asked someone holding a sign for another tour, and I was able to board safely. I thought it wasn't very considerate that there wasn't someone holding a sign like with other tours, but the guidance inside the bus was polite, and we enjoyed the view from the window on the way. It was farther than I expected, and there was a restroom break along the way, but it took about another 40 minutes from there. I had low expectations for dinner because of the reviews saying it wasn't great, but it turned out to be better than I thought, and the prime rib was delicious. The staff who served it were friendly and chatted with us casually. We were in the second row from the front for the show, but since we weren't in the middle, there were some scenes that were a bit hard to see. However, the clear story and, above all, the performers seemed to be having fun, which was great. After the show, they come to shake hands, but if you engage with them, the bus schedule is quite tight. If you need to go to the restroom, I think it's best to get up immediately after the show and head straight there.

今回、デラックス・送迎つきプランを申し込みました。集合場所に行くと、バスがたくさん並び、どれかわからず他ツアーの看板を持った人に聞き、無事乗り込むことができました。他のツアーのように看板を持った人がいないのは、親切でないと思いましたが、車内での案内は丁寧で車窓からの眺めを楽しみながら向かいました。思っていたより遠く、途中トイレ休憩がありましたが、そこからさらに40分くらいかかりました。ディナーは口コミを見てあんまりだということだったので期待していなかったせいか、思っていたより良く、プライムリブも美味しかったです。切り分けてくれるスタッフもフレンドリーで、きさくに話かけてくれました。ショーは前から２列目でしたが、真ん中ではなかったため、少し見にくい場面もありましたが、わかりやすいストーリーと、何より演者たちが楽しそうだったことが良かったです。終わったら握手をしに来てくれますが、それに対応しているとバスの時間がかなりタイトです。トイレに行きたい方は、終わってすぐに席を立ち、トイレに直行したほうがいいと思います。

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

First Trip to Hawaii

Reviewed by: NoName

Let me start off by saying I NEVER leave reviews...which I need to work on because I am always checking them out before I do/buy things. So, this is my way of giving back.

My boyfriend and I went to Hawaii in the middle of Oct. This was our first trip to Hawaii so we were very excited! You can't go to Hawaii for the first time w/o attending a luau :-) They picked us up from our hotel at 3:30 pm. It was a long drive, took about 45 min. There is an entertainer on the bus to keep everyone awake. Once we got there we were given a mai tai & took a professional photo with a female & male dancer. Before the dinner you can walk around & play games, enjoy the scenery, etc. There were also small shows in between such as a hula lesson, the pig roasting, etc, Once dinner starts you enjoy the rest of the show that is on stage. It is very interactive as they ask for volunteers to come on stage. My favorite part was the fire juggler. The dinner was okay, but there are options for vegetarians & people who do not eat pork. The bar had really good drinks! My boyfriend had the paradise punch & I had the melon colada which was delicious! We did purchase the professional pic that was taken of us, which is a nice memory :-)

Overall, I would recommend especially if this is your first time in Hawaii. We returned to our hotel at about 10 pm, so round trip it is an all night event.

Reviewed by: 家族で

The welcome drink was made too early and got watered down with ice, making it taste bad. The bus guide kept saying "Everyone say" over and over. Unsurprisingly, we were the only Japanese people there. The show had too many songs and stories in between, and it was short, ending in no time. The Polynesian show is better. The Polynesian show is too long, so this one might be recommended for families with children. The buffet was just okay; it wasn't delicious, and the drinks were mostly sweet cocktails, which I can see wouldn't appeal much to Japanese people. However, the view is the best in Hawaii, and the sunset is very beautiful. Thanks to the scenery, I left without being angry. I won't be returning.

ウエルカムドリンクは早くから作りすぎて氷で薄まってまずい。バスガイドは、やたらと　エブリワン　セイ　って、何回も。ご他聞に漏れず　日本人は私達だけでした。ショーーはやたら合間に歌や語りが入り、ショー自体も短くて　あっという間に終わりました。ポリネシアンの方がよいです。ポリネシアンは長くすぎるので、子連れにはこちらがおすすめかも。ビュッフェも　まあこんなもんかと、美味しくはないです　お酒も甘いカクテルのようなものばかりだし、　日本人には　あまり受けないのがよくわかります。ですが、景色はハワイで一番です　夕日がとてもきれいです。景色のおかげで　まあ、怒らず帰りました。リピはないです。

Since I came all the way to Hawaii, I participated in a show.

On the way there by bus from Honolulu, the guide shared various stories and showed us things on an iPad, making the trip enjoyable! There’s about an hour and a half without a restroom break until you arrive, so I recommend using the restroom before getting on.

As soon as we arrived, we headed straight to the buffet. Since we had the standard plan, I expected the usual buffet menu… curry, pasta, roast beef, and so on.

The show was powerful and very engaging! I don’t understand English, but there were animations playing, so I think I understood it somewhat. The actors ran right up close to the seats, so although we were seated further away, we had a great time.

I thought the ice cream sold during the show might be too much, but we shared it and finished it easily.

The bus ride back and forth was a bit bumpy… ^_^;

My wife and I had a great time at the Luau. We booked early and mentioned that we were celebrating our anniversary. We had booked the Deluxe package. Well we were greeted and received a lei and then escorted to our seats. He informed us of the activities and presented us with drink tickets and vouchers to buy at their store. We then took a canoe ride, took pictures with the exotic birds, checked out the Lei making. By this time we went to get drinks and noticed the marque scrolling and saw our names wishing us a Happy Anniversary it made my wife happy. They then called everyone over and the pig was dug up for everyone to see and smell as they paraded it by everyone. We then sat down and had dinner served to us. What a great meal and then the show began it was a great show even the audience members were picked and got envolved. All in all a good time had by all.

As our first time in Hawaii, we couldn't have asked for a better host/guide than Cousin Mo! He kept us laughing and entertained the whole way there and back! As soon as we arrived we were greeted with a flower lei and a kukui nut lei. As we entered we were offered a Mai Tai and the option to take a photo with a hula girl/fire dancer. As you go in you see this breathtaking view overlooking the ocean. And there's so many activities to do, so you're never bored. Than right before the meal you're entertained by hula dancers while two men pull the feast pig from underground who than walk around displaying the pig. As recommended we mixed the "Poi" with soy sauce and ate it with the pulled pork; So delicious! During the meal we were entertained with music, dancers and a fire show. The ride back home was just as entertaining, as I said, thanks to Cousin Mo I will always think of him when i hear Whitney Houston. Definitely would recommend the Deluxe package! The best time ever!

It was incredibly impressive and I was very satisfied!! 大迫力で大満足です！！

Reviewed by: マーシー

During our honeymoon in Hawaii, we participated in a tour. Since it was both of our first time in Hawaii, we wanted to do something classic, so we were drawn to the fire dance.

The location is about an hour and a half drive from our accommodation in Waikiki, which was a bit inconvenient, but our Japanese guide provided a thorough explanation during the ride, so we were never bored.

Upon arrival, we started with a meal. It was a buffet-style setup where we could choose what we liked. The options included beef, pork, and chicken, as well as fried fish, pasta, mashed potatoes, bread, rice, salad, and fruits... a menu that everyone from adults to children could enjoy. The food was delicious, and we left feeling full.

The show began at 7:30 PM. Since I'm not very good at English, there were parts of the narration and dialogue that I didn't quite understand, but I think the overall story can be grasped while watching.

More than that, the powerful sound and the performances using human bodies were impressive.

The finale with the fire dance was truly wonderful. In the end, the audience gave a standing ovation.

We enjoyed the meal, experienced a spectacular show that we can't see in Japan, and even enjoyed the guide's sightseeing commentary during the ride (though we might have just been lucky...), so I think this participation fee is very reasonable. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Hawaii for the first time.

ハネムーンでハワイに訪れた際にツアーに参加しました。
2人とも初めてのハワイだった事もあり、ベタな事がしたかったので、ファイヤーダンスに惹かれての参加です。

ロケーションは宿泊地のワイキキからは、車で一時間半くらい掛かるので不便では有りますが、行きの車内では日本人のガイドさんが、丁寧に案内してくれたので、全く退屈しませんでした。

現地に到着すると、先ずは食事です。ビュッフェ形式で好きなものを選んで食べる事が出来ます。肉はビーフ、ポーク、チキン。魚のフライやパスタ、マッシュポテト、パン、ライス、サラダ、フルーツ.....等、大人から子供まで楽しめるメニューでした。味も美味しくて、お腹いっぱいになりました。

そして、19:30からショーが始まりました。
英語が得意で無いので、ナレーションやセリフがいまいち理解できない部分が有りましたが、大まかなストーリーは観ている中でわかると思います。

それよりも、大迫力の音量と、人間の身体を使ったパフォーマンスが圧巻でした。

フィナーレのファイヤーダンスは本当に素晴らしかったです。
最後はスタンドが総立ちのスタンディングオベーションでした。

食事も楽しめて、日本では観ることの出来ない大迫力のショーを楽しみ、車内でのガイドさんの観光案内まで満喫できて(たまたま、運が良かっただけかも知れませんが.....)、この参加料はとてもお得だと思います。
初めてハワイに来る人には必ずオススメしたいです。

The first time I went with a friend.

This time, I applied for the Deluxe Special Plan for my husband, who is visiting Hawaii for the first time. The difference from the regular plan last time seems to be the seats and the ice cream during breaks, but I think the meal content is the same. There is a lot of ice cream, but it's not particularly delicious. I couldn't finish it.

The seats are close together, but I felt that being close doesn't necessarily mean it's better.

I thought it might not be necessary to choose the Deluxe option.

１度目は友人といきました。

A must-see for show lovers! ショー好きにはたまらない！

I had made a reservation for the day I arrived in Honolulu, but due to a flight delay, I couldn't make it. When I consulted with VELTRA, they informed me that I could change my reservation for an additional fee of about $35 for the transfer. They asked me to make the change myself, but since I was unable to call locally, I conveyed that to them, and they made the change for me. However, since it was a last-minute change, they requested that I confirm it on-site. After arriving at the hotel, I called the Polynesian Cultural Center, only to find out that the change had not been communicated to them. Fortunately, there was a Japanese person who helped me, but I think it would be better if the agency provided more support in such situations.

The show was truly amazing, and I was able to sit in the deluxe section, four rows from the front! The performance was very powerful, with various stage setups, and the pacing of the story was good, making it enjoyable!

ホノルル到着当日に予約していましたが飛行機の遅延で行けなくなってしまい、VELTRAさんに相談したところ送迎代で約35ドル追加で払えば変更可能との事。変更は自分で行ってくださいとの事でしたが、現地への電話ができない状態だったのでその旨を伝えると変更してくれました。ただ直前の変更の為、最終的な確認は現地でして欲しいとのことだったので、ホテルに着いてからポリネシアン文化センターへ電話しました。すると、現地へは変更の事は伝わっていませんでした…。日本人の方だったので助かりましたが、代理店としてそこまでのフォローがあるといいと思いました。

ショーは本当に素晴らしくて、デラックスで前から4番目の席で見る事が出来ました！迫力がとてもあり、ステージもいろいろな仕掛けがあり、話の展開のテンポも良いので楽しめると思います！

I had seen many luau shows before, so I thought it would be just okay... but I was completely blown away. It was moving! Amazing! Unbelievably impressive! Just this show alone was worth the trip from Japan. I absolutely recommend it!! I want to participate again more than once. The buffet was also good!! Let's understand the alcohol-free option.

何度もルアウショーを見ていたので、そんなもんか・・・てな気持ちを打ち砕かれました。感激！感嘆！アンビリーバボウ感動！このショーだけで、日本から来た価値ありです。絶対お薦め！！もう一度以上参加したいと思います。ビュフェもOK！！アルコール抜きは理解しましょう。

The tour I participated in started in the evening with entry to the Polynesian Cultural Center, followed by a buffet dinner and a show. We were supposed to meet at the pickup location around 4 PM, but there were many guests from other tour options, and it took a while to find our guide. However, our guide eventually spotted us, and we set off!

The Polynesian Cultural Center is on the opposite side of the island from Waikiki, so it took about an hour and a half to get there. Along the way, our lively guide, who lives in Hawaii, kept us entertained with fun stories, so we arrived at our destination without getting bored!

Once we arrived at the Polynesian Cultural Center, we enjoyed a buffet in a huge dining hall! It seemed that the meal options varied depending on the grade of the package you chose, but the standard option was more than satisfactory!

After the meal, we browsed a souvenir shop before heading to the show. Finally, we got to enjoy the much-anticipated show, "Hā: Breath of Life." I won't spoil the content here, but it had a storyline, and the intensity of the finale was simply overwhelming! I think you can enjoy the show well from any seat.

Since it's far from Waikiki, I recommend this tour for those who have some time to spare!

今回参加したツアーは夕方からポリネシア文化センターへ入場し、ビュッフェを食べて、ショーを見るというもの。
午後4時過ぎにピックアップ場所で待ち合わせだったのですが他のオプションツアーのお客さんがたくさんいてなかなかガイドさん？と会えませんでしたが、なんとかガイドさんが私たちを見つけてくれて出発！！
ポリネシア文化センターはワイキキからは島の反対側なので1時半くらいかかったのですが、道中はハワイ在住の元気なガイドさんがとても楽しいお話で盛り上げてくれたので退屈することなく目的地に到着！
ポリネシア文化センターに到着後は超巨大な食堂でブュッフェを頂きました！申し込むグレードによって食事の内容が変わるみたいでしたが、スタンダードで充分満足することがでしました！！！
食事の後は少しお土産屋さんを見ながらショーの会場へ。
そして待ちに待ったショー、'ハァ'ブレス・オブ・ライフを鑑賞しました！内容についてはネタバレになってしまうのでここでは書きませんが、ストーリー性もありとにかくラストの迫力がすごくてただただ圧倒されてしまいました！！！！席はとこからでも良く鑑賞できると思います。

ワイキキから遠いので時間に余裕がある方にはオススメのツアーです！

伝統ルアウ＆ハワイアンショー「チーフズルアウ」豪華ビュッフェディナーと元世界チャンピオンのファイヤーダンスが圧巻のショー＜ウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイ内＞

Amazing!!! 最高！！！

It was just the two of us participating with a friend. At first, I was a bit anxious since we were the only Japanese people there, but there were no problems at all. The bus ride seemed like a sightseeing shuttle, and if you understand a little English, you can enjoy it. I've seen various Hawaiian shows before, but this one was quite fun. Participating in the evening and being able to return to the hotel around 9 PM is also appealing. If you have no plans in the evening, I definitely recommend going!

友達と二人参加でした。
日本人が、私たちしかいなく最初不安になりましたが、なんの問題も有りませんでした。
行きのバスは、観光付きの送迎のようで、多少英語が分かれば楽しめます。
ハワイアンショーも今まで色々のもの見てますが、かなり楽しいです。
夕方からの参加で、程よい９時頃ホテルに戻れるのも魅力です。
夕方から予定がないなら、ぜひいったほうがいいですよ。
