All Reviews for Live Shows & Performances

Thinking about it, this is my sixth time visiting Hawaii, but I realized I hadn't really experienced the cultural aspects of Hawaii... so I decided to join this tour. The staff guide, Roland, was on the bus that picked us up at the hotel, and it was enjoyable to hear local stories about the area along the way. Since I participated on the day of arrival, I couldn't eat much for dinner, but after enjoying a buffet dinner featuring traditional Hawaiian dishes and plenty of vegetables, we moved to the hall to wait for the show. Our seats were slightly to the right, just two rows from the stage. I was truly amazed by the powerful dance performances. The intense movements were so vigorous that I could see steam rising from their bodies. I learned that there are various forms of Polynesian dance, and it was especially moving for me to see traditional dance up close for the first time. I would recommend this experience to anyone visiting Hawaii at least once. I participated with my mother this time, and she was thrilled, saying, "This was the best part of our trip!" Next time, I definitely want to join a tour that lasts all day.

考えてみたらハワイを訪れるのも六回目になるのに、しっかりとハワイの文化的なものに触れることはなかったなぁ・・・とふと思ってこのツアーに参加することにしました。ホテルへの迎えのバスにはスタッフガイドのローランドさんが乗り込み到着するまでの間、通る道すがらその土地についてのローカルな話を聞かせてくれたのも楽しかったです。到着日当日の参加だったため夕食はあまり食べられませんでしたが、ハワイの伝統料理をはじめ野菜もふんだんに用意されたビュツフェ形式の夕食を済ませたあと、ホールに移動してショーを待ちます。席は前から二番目のステージに向かってやや右側。迫力満点のダンスには本当に驚きました。激しい動き、力の入ったダンスで体から立ち上る湯気が見えるほどです。いろいろな形のポリネシアンダンスがあるんだなぁ、特に伝統的なダンスを身近に見るのは初めてだったので本当に感動しました。ハワイを訪れるなら一度は訪れるべき、と皆さんに薦めようと思います。今回は母と二人で参加しましたが「今回の旅行で一番良かった!」と大喜びでした。次はぜひ一日楽しめるツアーに参加したいと思っています。

Since it was a special trip to Hawaii, I thought it would be nice to participate just once, but it was better than I expected. Of course, the show was great, but I also enjoyed hearing various stories from the international students working in the park.

せっかくのハワイだから一度は良いかな・・位で参加したのですが
期待以上に良かったです。ショーはもちろんですが　園内で働いている
各国からの留学生さんから色々な話を聞くことができて　とても楽しめました。

I've been to Hawaii seven times, but this was my first time participating. There were moments of emotion and laughter. Everyone who participated was happy. I'll definitely join again the next time I come to Hawaii!

今まで7回ハワイ来ましたが初めて参加しました
感動あり笑いあり
参加者みんなが喜んでくれました
次回ハワイ来た時も参加しま〜す

This is my third time participating. I was excited to join after three years. Compared to before, many facilities have been renovated and look beautiful, but it feels like the scale has become too large, and I found myself feeling more in tune with the Polynesian atmosphere in the past. I was disappointed that there were no performances from various countries on the floating stage like before. The final show was very satisfying, and I was pleased. For those participating for the first time, I think it offers a lot of great experiences.

今回で三回目の参加です。
三年ぶりの参加でワクワクしながら参加しました。
以前と比べて色んな施設がリニュアルされていて、きれいになっていたのですが、規模が大きくなりすぎて、何かにつけて昔のほうが、よりポリネシアの雰囲気になじめたように感じました。以前のように水の上に浮かべた船の舞台で、いろんな国のダンスなどのパフォーマンスがなかったのが残念でした。
最後のショーは大変満足のできるもので、満足しました。
初めて参加される方には、色んなことが経験できて、良いと思います。

I made a reservation for this tour because I heard you were coming to Hawaii. When I first booked, I mistakenly got the pickup time wrong for the shuttle bus. I didn't receive a call from you, and when I inquired right away, I was told there would be a 100% cancellation fee. I felt it was very disappointing because if I had joined the group on-site, I would have had enough time to enjoy the activities and dinner show. Since it’s not a cheap course, I still feel regret and wish for at least a partial refund. I thought there might be some response, so I made a second application... Looking back, I realize that I could have made it on time by taking the city bus during the first attempt. I urge Veltra to improve its response. The content at the cultural center was very good. The final show, in particular, is definitely worth seeing.

前回お客様がハワイにいらっしゃるとの事で是非このツアーをと思い予約をさせていただきました。最初予約をした時に送迎バスでの待ち合わせの時間を間違えてしまい、そちらからお電話をいただいた訳でもなく、こちらからすぐに問い合わせをしましたが、キャンセル料金１００％と言われてしまいました。現地での集合にすれば十分にアクティビティやディナーショーまで見学ができたと思い非常に残念でなりませんでした。安いコースではないので未だに残念で一部でも返金していただきたい気持ちでいっぱいです。何か対応があるのではないかと思い２回目の申し込みをさせていただきましたが。。１度目の時は市バスで行けば十分に間に合ったんだな。。と改めてveltraさんの対応に改善を求めます。文化センターでの内容は非常によかったです。特に最後のショーは見る価値が十分にあります。

We chose the buffet style, and it was a fun meal while enjoying live guitar performances and hula dancing.

After the meal, we were led to the venue where the show began.

Everything was performed live by the band and look-alikes singing, with an astonishingly high level of quality. It's completely different from Japanese comedy look-alikes. In between, there were hula dances arranged in a rock style. After the show, there was also a time for commemorative photos.

It was truly a worthwhile and enjoyable entertainment experience.

I would like to visit again when I go to Hawaii.

私たちはバイキング形式を選びましたが、

The VIP Green Room Dinner and Show was the ultimate Legends in concert experience. Before the dinner my wife and I had the opportunity to relax in the VIP section where the complimentary drink and snacks set the right tone for the evening. The Elvis impersonator was available to take pictures minutes prior to being seated a few feet from the stage. The main course was delicious. Wife said the Steak was excellent but didn't care for the Salmon. I enjoyed them both. The drink tickets were an added benefit to compliment an already wonderful dinner. The desert was a delicious and beautifully arrange. The show began at about 815PM and the ELVIS impersonator was an awesome entertainer. He did about 4 songs to open the show and really had us comfortable and enjoying the show. He came off the stage and greeted the guest in the VIP section and planted a kiss and lei on a few unsuspecting women, my wife being one of them. Then the Lady Gaga impersonator had an outstanding performance. She WOWed the crowd with a descending entrance from above the stage. She was very fitting for show and a joy to watch. The The Michael Jackson impersonator was to the letter dancing like Mike. Although he wasn't as vocal as the other performers, those classic Michael Jackson dance move had us clapping and snapping. There were several other performances between impersonators that were very well performed as well. The host, ELVIS, did a final stage appearance and the grand finale was epic. After the show we had the opportunity to take photos with the entertainers and consume more beverages. Just as we thought the night was complete, a young lady validated our parking and we only paid 8 dollars in the Royal Hawaiian Parking Garage. My wife enjoyed it so much she said she's coming back. It was actually the best stage performance I'd ever been to. From check-in to check-out the whole experience was over the top classic.

If you are contemplating going, don't think - just book it! Rock-a-Hula is by far one of the more entertaining shows here on Oahu. You can only watch so many luaus before getting sick of them. If you enjoy Vegas shows, this is on the same scale. Also make sure to book the VIP backstage package. It was definitely worth having the show producer show us the entire stage, meet and greet with the crew, etc. - especially if anyone in your group is interested in theater. The food was several times greater than what we ate at other shows that cost more as well, with a 4-course surf and turf. The end dessert was delic'. The entire staff was very professional and you could tell they wanted you to really enjoy their performance as they must put a lot of work making the magic happen. My mother in law thought Elvis looked more handsome than the real deal. The mannerisms of all the characters were spot on. Bravo to the dancers, especially to the fire juggler. I especially enjoyed the incorporation of Hawaii's cultural aspects into the show for that local touch.

I went to the show with my parents and my husband. It was our first time in Hawaii, so we had little clue what to do, what to see and where to go. My parents found out about the show from some Korean TV show(they came from Korea) and told me about it, so I got the VIP tickets. We stayed in Waikiki so we could Walk to the theater.
The producer showed us the behind scene such as dressing rooms and even let us walk on the stage. There was a Hawaiian Flame show(I don't know the official name). It was actually my favorite part of the whole show. I was thrilled. I wanted to take a pictures with him but only the singers were out waiting for the photo time. That was disappointing.
There were a lot of Hawaiian dances. I thought the this Hawaiian dance part is something that I wouldn't be able to see in any other cities.
And "Michael Jackson" had the same nose job as the real Michael Jackson. Haha. His moon walk was great.
The dinner was served right before the show for about an hour and the food was very delicious. I was in the VIP seat so I was served the full course dinner. The dessert, molten chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream was heavenly.
The only downside I thought about the show was the fewer numbers of the legend singers than I would like to see. I was expecting about five singers but it was 1 hour and 20 minutes show with three singers.
I was just glad that my mom loved the show. She doesn't speak English but music doesn't require languages. It is all about the showman ship and atmosphere.
Overall it was a good show and I recommend this show to everyone!

First, you can enjoy a truly VIP experience sitting on luxurious sofas in the green room while being served champagne and pinchos. After that, you can take a commemorative photo with Gaga. Then, an older brother who resembles Ebizo will guide you backstage, where you can see stage costumes and props, including Michael Jackson's glove, and even touch some hula accessories (like pom-poms).

You get to go on stage and take commemorative photos, spending a really enjoyable time. The seats are right in the center of the front row, allowing you to see Elvis, Gaga, Michael, and in between, the hula and fire dance performances, making the time fly by.

This was not just an impersonation or lip-syncing; it was a real singing and dancing entertainment show. The food was plentiful, including lobster, steak, salmon, and more, all delicious.

Finally, at the exit, you can take a commemorative photo with each person and get signatures on the photos taken in the green room before heading home.

まず、グリーンルームでシャンパンやピンチョスなどを豪華なソファーに座ってサービスされ、ホントにＶＩＰな気分を味わいます。その後ｶﾞｶﾞと記念撮影。
その後、海老蔵似のお兄さんに舞台裏を案内され、舞台衣装や装置、マイケルジャクソンの手袋など見せてもらったり、フラの小物（ポンポンなど）を触らせてもらったり…
実際に舞台上に上がり記念写真を撮ってもらい、なかなか楽しい時間を過ごしました。
席は、舞台最前列のど真ん中で、エルビス、ｶﾞｶﾞ様、マイケル・・・その合間のフラやファイアーダンスなど、しっかり見られ、あっという間の時間でした。
物まね・・・という域ではなく、口パクではなく本当に歌って踊るエンタ―テーメントのショーでした。
お料理はボリュームがありロブスター、ステーキ、サーモンなどなど有り、おいしくいただきました。
最後に、出口で一人ひとりと記念撮影をし、グリーンルームで撮った写真にサインをもらって
帰りました。

This New Year's, I went to Hawaii for the first time! I attended the Rock-a-Hula show by Legends in Concert Waikiki for the second time. The last time I watched from the back of the second floor, I saw people in the front row enjoying their meals while watching the show and thought, "This is how it should be in Waikiki!" I decided that next time, I would sit there for a revenge experience! So, I splurged on a VIP tour that included a behind-the-scenes look.

There were four groups participating in this tour. First, we waited in the VIP room, which had free drinks and a variety of delicious snacks that left us very satisfied! After a while, Lady Gaga came to take individual photos with us. Then, a manager who could speak a little Japanese slowly walked us through the backstage for about ten minutes, showing us props and set pieces while explaining everything. Standing on stage and looking out at the audience, I felt like I was Elvis or Michael—it was the best!

We sat in the front row for a full-course dinner, which was quite tasty! Finally, the show began, and being in the front row was completely different from watching from the second floor! We were so close that we could even see the sweat. Our eyes met several times, and it was just amazing! My wife was also really into it and at her maximum excitement level! I'm so glad I decided to splurge! She was extremely happy.

Since we came to enjoy Hawaii, I especially recommend this to couples from the Elvis and Michael generation. How about a surprise gift for your wife?

年末年始、お正月で初のハワイ！
ロック・ア・フラショーbyレジェンド・イン・コンサート・ワイキキは、今回2回目。
前回2階席後方から観た際、最前列席で優雅に食事し観ている人達をみてワイキキはこうでなくては！ 次回はリベンジ？！あそこに座って観よう！と決め、今回VIP待遇の舞台裏まで見るツアーに思い切って奮発し参加しました。
このツアーに参加したのは4組のグループでした。まずはVIPルームで待機。フリードリンクや美味しいツマミが数多くあり大満足！
暫くするとレディガガが来てくれて個々の写真撮影。それから片言の日本語が話せるマネージャーが10分程度舞台裏をゆっくり歩きながら小道具・大道具などを見せてもらい説明を聞きました。舞台に立ち客席を見て自分がプレスリー、マイケルになった気分で最高！
最前列の客席に座ってフルコースディナー。まずまず美味しかったかな！
いよいよショーの始まり、やはり最前列は2階席から観るのとは大違い！汗までも見えるほど近い。何度も目が合い、もう最高！ 妻ものりのりでテンションMAX！思い切って奮発して良かった‼️大変喜んでもらいました。
せっかくハワイにエンジョイしに来たのだから、特にエルビス、マイケル世代のご夫婦にはお薦めです。
奥様にビックリプレゼントとしていかがですか‼️

I participated in "Rock-a-Flash Show" by Legends in Concert Waikiki (inside the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center) / ☆Members Only Monitor Tour☆ / Green Room Dinner & Show. I am very satisfied with the high-quality show. Here are the details.

First, while enjoying champagne in the VIP room, Elvis came in and took a commemorative photo with us. After that, we had a backstage tour led by a guide who resembled Ebizo, and he explained everything in English, making it easy for us Japanese to understand without feeling nervous. After detailed explanations of the dressing room, lighting, and backstage, we were guided to a table in front of the stage for dinner. The meat was tender, and the shrimp was delicious, leaving us very satisfied.

Although it was a dinner show, Elvis was the first to appear. We could understand the feeling of when he first visited Hawaii through his costume, and even for those of us who are not from that generation, we could appreciate his high level of skill. After that, Lady Gaga made a surprise appearance. Her dance was impressive, but her piano performance and humorous act were very easy for the older audience to understand, creating a sense of unity in the venue. When Michael appeared at the end, the venue erupted with his overwhelming dance skills and singing voice. We were captivated for several minutes by his perfectly recreated dance performance. Being able to see his performance in Hawaii was a precious memory during our seven-day stay, truly living up to the name "King of Pop."

After the show, there was a photo opportunity with all the performers, and we had time for autographs and conversations, which is another reason I recommend this experience. In addition to the first-class performances of the main stars, the local performers dancing hula and the fire dance skills were uniquely Hawaiian and made for a very valuable experience.

I felt that this high-quality show could be enjoyed even by those who do not know Elvis or Michael in real-time. Thank you for the enjoyable time in Hawaii. I would like to visit again on my next trip to Hawaii.

　今回ロック・ア・フラショー by レジェンド・イン・コンサート・ワイキキ （ロイヤル・ハワイアン・ショッピングセンター内） / ☆会員様限定モニターツアー☆／グリーン・ルーム・ディナー＆ショー に参加して来ました。
　完成度の高いショーに大満足しております。以下が詳細になります。最初にVIPルームでシャンパンを頂いていたら、エルビスさんがVIPルームに来て記念撮影してくれました。その後海老蔵似の案内人によりバックステージの見学しましたが、英語で丁寧に説明してくれたため、日本人の我々にも分かり易く、とても慣れた感じで緊張することなく理解すること出来ました。控え室、ライティング、ステージ裏を細かく説明頂いた後、ステージ前のテーブルに案内されて食事を頂きました。お肉も柔らかく、海老も美味しく大満足でした。
ディナーショーですが、最初に登場したのがエルビスでした。ハワイを初めて訪れた当時の感じが衣装からも理解ができ、世代では無い私達にも彼の技術の高さは理解出来ました。その後は、レディガガがサプライズな演出での登場。ダンスも印象的でしたがピアノ演奏と非常にユーモアのあるパフォーマンスには年配に方々にも非常に分かり易く、会場が一体となっておりました。最後にマイケルが登場した際には、圧倒的なダンス力と歌声で会場は大盛り上がり。完全に再現されたダンスパフォーマンスに数分間見入ってしまいました。まさにKING　OF　POPという名に恥じない彼のパフォーマンスをハワイで観れた事は７日間の滞在の中でも貴重な思い出となりました。ショー終了後にはパフォーマー全員との写真撮影があり、サインは勿論、会話もする時間を設けて頂けるため、間近で彼らに接する事が出来るのもお勧めする理由です。又、主役の方々の一流のパフォーマンスは勿論でしたが、周りでフラを踊っている現地パフォーマーの華やかさや、ファイヤーダンスの技術はハワイならではで大変貴重な経験となりました。
　リアルタイムでエルビスやマイケルを知らない方でも必ず満喫することが出来る完成度の高いショーだと感じました。この度は、ハワイでの楽しい時間をありがとうございました。またハワイ旅行の際には行って見たいと思います。

I go to Hawaii every year, but this was my first time signing up for this dinner show. After checking in at 6 PM, I was guided to the green room, feeling like a VIP.

There, I saw a Lady Gaga impersonator who looked stunning in a bubble-themed costume. After taking a photo with her, three waiters offered us welcome drinks, appetizers, and a fruit platter, and we toasted on a luxurious sofa!

Next, we were shown the star's dressing room and backstage. The guide spoke in English but mixed in some broken Japanese while explaining the stage setup, and we even got to take photos on stage.

As for the meal, we were seated at the front VIP table, and the portions were just right and delicious, featuring lobster, steak, salmon, truffle mashed potatoes, and fondant chocolate.

After the meal, an Elvis impersonator made his entrance. During the first song, he came down to the audience and presented leis to women, greeting them with kisses. The ladies were squealing with excitement.

Next, Lady Gaga appeared, captivating the audience with her dance and sultry outfit.

The highlight was definitely Michael Jackson. There were many women shouting "Michael! Michael!"

Finally, the show concluded with everyone singing "We Are the World," which was very moving.

After the show, we had the opportunity to take commemorative photos with the stars at the exit. MJ was the most popular, and we lined up in a long queue to take pictures. Even up close, he looked just like him!

The impersonators were not only similar in appearance but also sang beautifully live. It was my first experience, but I definitely think this tour is highly recommended.

　毎年ハワイに行っていますが、初めて今回のディナーショーに申し込みました。１８時に受付を済ませると、VIP待遇を受けているような雰囲気でグリーン・ルームに案内されました。
　すると、そこにはレディーガガのそっくりさんが(*^^)v。。。。シャボン玉の衣装をまとってとても綺麗でした。ガガと写真撮影をした後、３人のウェイターさんからウェルカムドリンク、オードブル、フルーツ盛り合わせを進められ、豪華なソファーで乾杯！
　次にスターの控室やバックステージの案内です。英語ですが片言の日本語を交えて舞台装置の説明があり、実際に舞台の上で写真を撮ってもらいました。
　食事ですが、一番前のVIPテーブルに案内され、ロブスター、ステーキ、サーモン、トリフ入りマッシュポテト、フォンダンショコラなどボリュームも丁度で美味しかったです。
　食事が終わると、まずはプレスリーのソックリさんが登場。最初の歌で観客席に降りてきて女性に「レイ」をプレゼントして、挨拶のキスをしていました。女性陣のキャーという声が響いていました。
　次は、ガガが登場。ダンスと色っぽい衣装で観客を魅了していました。
　やっぱり盛り上がるのは、マイケルジャクソンでした。「マイケル×２」と叫んでいる、おばさんがたくさんいました。
　最後に、全員揃ってWe are the worldの合唱でのフィナーレは、感動的でした。
　ショーが終わると出口でスターとの記念写真撮影ができました。こちらもMJが一番人気長で蛇の列に並んで撮りました。近くで見てもやっぱりそっくりでした(^○^)
　そっくりさんは顔だけでなく歌もそっくりで生歌でとても歌が上手でした。初めての体験でしたが、絶対おすすめのツアーだと思います。

The National Museum of Ethnology located in Osaka's Expo Commemorative Park is also worth mentioning; it's a wonderful theme park where you can learn about the history and culture of Polynesians who crossed the vast Pacific Ocean! I was particularly impressed by the introduction to the indigenous people of New Zealand. The unique dances left a lasting impression on me. The 90-minute luau is composed of an emotional story reminiscent of a Shiki Theatre production, connecting to the fire and water shows of Las Vegas. Additionally, it's operated as a nonprofit organization aimed at providing scholarships for students, and despite 80% of the staff being students, I was moved by their professional performance. It's a place I would love to visit again!

大阪の万博記念公園内にある国立民俗学博物館にも紹介がありますが、太平洋の大海原を渡ったポリネシアンの歴史と文化が学べる素晴らしいテーマパークですね！特に感銘を受けたのはニュージーランドの原住民の紹介施設です。独特のダンスは印象に残りました。９０分のルアウは劇団四季ばりの感動ストーリーで構成されており、火と水を使うラスベガスのショーにもつながります。また運営がＮＰＯであり学生の奨学金を目的としており、スタッフの８割が学生であるにも拘らずプロフェッショナルな演出に感動しました。再訪したい施設ですね！

I've been to Hawaii many times, but this was my first time seeing this show. I chose the buffet, and the taste was quite good! It's one of the better buffets I've had! During the meal, there were live performances with ukulele music and two hula dancers that really livened up the atmosphere. I was surprised by how wonderful the venue was when I entered! Elvis and Gaga were amazing, but Michael was the best of all! As I watched, he started to look real. Haha!

ハワイには何度も行ってるけど初めてこのショーを見て見ました☆
ビュッフェのにしたのですが、
味はなかなかです！
ビュッフェにしてはよい方かな！
食事の時にウクレレと歌の生演奏とフラダンサーが二人出てきて場を盛り上げてくれます(^_^)
会場に入ると思っていたより素晴らしい会場にビックリ！！
エルビスとガガも凄かったけど、マイケルがなにより凄いっ！！
見てるうちに本物に見えてきます。笑

Last year, my mother and I participated in the All Day Deluxe for the first time. The excitement from that experience is unforgettable, and we talked about how we definitely want to go again. This year, we signed up for the Twilight Standard in the evening.

On the shuttle, we were able to meet the same guide as last year, who provided a fun and engaging tour of Hawaii with jokes, making the journey to the cultural center enjoyable and never boring.

We arrived at the cultural center smoothly without any congestion. This time, we were able to watch a 4D movie that wasn't available last year. Unfortunately, the narration was in English, but I felt the stunning views and excitement as if I were flying over Hawaii.

Compared to the Standard, the Deluxe meal had many more options (including desserts), and the variety definitely enhances the satisfaction (laughs). The seating for the show also allowed us to feel the energy from the stage, and during the break, they served American-sized ice cream, so for those who want to fully enjoy the experience, I personally recommend the Deluxe.

The powerful dance and breathtaking performances that can only be experienced here were incredibly moving. There are English explanations during the show, but it is a wonderful experience that people of all ages can enjoy, even if they don't understand English.

去年初めて母と二人、お昼からのオールデイデラックスに参加させていただきました。その時の感動が忘れられず、次も絶対行こうね。と話し今年は夕方からのトワイライトスタンダードに申込みしました。
お迎えの車では去年と同じガイドさんに会うことができ、冗談を交えながらハワイのご案内をしてくれ、カルチャーセンターまでの道中も飽きずにとても楽しく過ごすことができました。
途中、混雑もなく順調にカルチャーセンターに到着。去年はなかった４Ｄの映画を見ることができました。残念ながら、その回は英語での説明でしたが、空からハワイを遊覧しているかのような景色と迫力を全身で感じました。
スタンダードと比べ、食事はやはりデラックスの方が種類も多く(デザートも)、選択肢が多い分満足感がちがいます（笑）。またショーの席もステージの熱気が伝わり、途中休憩の際アメリカンサイズのアイスがでるので満喫したい方には個人的にはデラックスがおすすめです。

ステージから伝わる迫力あるダンスとここでしか感じることのできない圧巻の演技にすごく感動しました。途中、英語の説明が入りますが、英語が分からない方でも年齢を問わず楽しむことができる素晴らしいショーです。

Second time seeing this show. We went for the cocktails and show. Michael Jackson impersonator was my favourite. Not to discredit Elvis and Lady Gaga as they were all very good. Impersonators came out into the lobby after the show to pose for pictures which I thought was a nice touch. Made for a really nice nite out.

It was a tour where we could leisurely explore the park, and our guide, Marilyn, was sincere and kind, making it enjoyable. I was impressed by the university students who were running the tour! Their professional performance was surprising and moving. The 4D movie was also great. The lady who picked us up strongly recommended upgrading to the deluxe option, but the standard course was more than enough. The BBQ and seating were excellent, and I have no complaints.

のんびりしたムードで園内を回れるツアーで、案内のマリリンさんは、誠実で親切で、楽しむことができました。大学生の方々が運営している姿に感動！プロに徹したパフォーマンスには驚きと感動を覚えました。4D映画も良かったです。ピックアップのおばちゃんにデラックスへの変更を強く進められましたが、スタンダードコースで十分です。BBQも座席もよくて文句ありません。

The show was centered around students, but it was impressive. Since I chose the cheapest meal course, it was just okay. Next time, I would like to try a slightly more expensive meal course.

ショーは、学生中心とのことでしたが迫力がありました。
食事は一番安いコースにしたので、まあこんなものかな～
次回は、少し高い料理のコースにしたいと思います。

On the first night in Waikiki, I planned to relax at a Hawaiian buffet dinner and show, but I was suddenly filled with excitement. The two-hour dinner and show were amazing. I want to participate again next time.

ワイキキ初日の夜。ハワイアンビュッフェディナー＆ショーでゆっくり過ごす予定が、いきなりの大興奮。２時間のディナー＆ショーに大感激。次回も参加したいです。

Was a bit disappointed showed up two hrs early but still paid over 30.00 per person to just walk around for the two hrs plus another 19 per person to eat the buffet and then during the show came out with ice cream and that was also a cost ! So for 7 people it was over 700. It was to rxpensive

The half-day course in the afternoon included a show. We stopped by a souvenir shop on the way, but I wondered if it was a tourist trap... Well, I did buy something, though! I wonder if it was a store where you could earn Ponta points? If I had known, I could have earned quite a few points. What a shame. The facilities at the Polynesian Cultural Center (PCC) are very large, so you can't see everything in just half a day. The guide who was assigned to us did a great job organizing the program and showing us around. Since we were in a small group, it was comfortable. The show was more impressive than I expected. After going around the PCC and learning about various things, it was easy to understand. It was a bit disappointing that the ice cream during the break ran out quickly and that there was no alcohol during dinner (though I understand why...).

午後からの半日コース、ショー付きでした。往路でお土産屋さんに立ち寄るのですが、ここはtourists' trapかと…。いや、買いましたがｗ。ポンタポイントが付くお店なのかしら？知っていたら随分ポイントになったはず。残念。PCCの施設は非常に大きいので、半日で全てを廻ることはできません。担当になってくれたガイドさんが上手にプログラムを組んで案内してくれます。私たちは小グループだったので、快適でした。ショーは期待以上の迫力。PCCをぐるぐる廻ってお勉強した後なので、色んなことがわかりやすい。休憩時間のアイスクリームがすぐになくなったことと、夕食時にアルコールがないこと（これは仕方ないけど…）がちょっと残念でした。

In London, I love musicals, and in Paris, I enjoy cabaret shows. This time, I went without any prior knowledge, but it was incredibly fun. When we went, the lineup included Elvis, Michael, Madonna, and Britney. When Elvis first appeared, it was so similar that I burst out laughing. As for whether to sign up for the green room tour... I'm not sure. The seats were definitely in the front row, and it was fun to see the stage setup in advance. However, the quality of the welcome drink was a bit lacking, haha.

ロンドンではミュージカル、パリではキャバレー通いのショー好きな私。今回、予備知識なしに行ってみたけれど、サイコ―に楽しかった。私たちが行ったときにはエルビス、マイケル、マドンナ、ブリトニーのラインナップ。最初にエルビスが登場したときは似すぎて爆笑でした。グリーンルームのツアーで申し込むべきか否かは…どうかなー。確かに座席は最前列だったし、舞台装置が事前に見られるのも楽しかった。でもウェルカムドリンクの質は、イマイチでしたよｗ。

The two-hour Polynesian dance and singing performance, topped off with a fire dance, was an exciting and continuous source of emotion. The dinner was also more luxurious than expected.

2時間に亘るﾎﾟﾘﾈｼｱ･ﾀﾞﾝｽと歌それに最後を飾るﾌｧｲﾔｰ･ﾀﾞﾝｽと飽きさせない感動の連続でした｡ ﾃﾞｲﾅｰも予想よりも豪華でした｡

I forgot my "age" (laughs). The friend I went with is from the Presley generation (in their 60s), while I'm from the Michael generation (in my 50s). I was the first to welcome Presley and take a commemorative photo, and my friend was already teary-eyed. The show started with Presley coming out while rowing a boat, and once again, there were tears. I don't know much about Presley, so I wasn't as moved. However, when Lady Gaga appeared as the second performer, I was completely knocked out (I own all her CDs) and got into the groove with the music. I couldn't hear the silence around me, and even though I didn't know the real Gaga, I found myself shouting "Gaga! Gaga!" Next was Michael Jackson! I was convinced that Michael is truly alive. After all, right in front of me is Michael, no matter what anyone says. His bold dancing was infused with delicate emotional expression, and this time I became teary-eyed. Amazing!! This is what applause and cheers are all about. This was my second trip to Hawaii, but my first visit was 25 years ago, and I don't think there was a show this wonderful back then. I'm really glad I went. It has become a treasure in my heart. After returning home, I've been bragging to my other friends. I think it's a must-see when you go to Hawaii. It was so much fun—I feel like I've rejuvenated. Thank you very much!!

私、自分の「歳」を忘れてしまいました（笑）

私はマイケル世代（５０代）で一番最初にプレスリーのお出迎え＆記念写真を撮ってもらい友達は既に涙目状態ウルウルでした。ショーはプレスリーが船を漕ぎながら出て来てまたもや涙涙。私はあまりプレスリーを知らないので感動がイマイチ。しかし２番手のガガ様の登場で私は完全にノックアウト状態になり（彼女のＣＤ全て保有）曲に合わせてノリノリになりました。まわりの静止も耳には入らず本物のガガ様を知らない私ですがガガ！ガガ！と叫んでしまいました。続いてはマイケルジャクソン！マイケルって本当は生きていると確信しました。だって私の目の前にいるのは誰が何と云おうとマイケルだからです。彼の大胆なダンスの中に繊細な感情表現が浸透していて今度は私が涙目ウルウルになりました。素晴らしい！！拍手喝采とはこの事です。ハワイへは２度目ですが最初の渡ハは２５年も前でしてこんなに素晴らしいショーは無かったと思います。
本当に行って良かったです。私の心の中の宝物になりました。帰国後も他のお友達に自慢しまくっています。ハワイに行ったら絶対外せないと思います。
楽しかった～　　なんだか若返ったようです。ありがとうございました！！

The meals weren't particularly noteworthy, but the show (dance) was interesting. It was great to see various Polynesian dances up close. The staff member who accompanied us on the shuttle bus was a student, and it seemed like they were doing their best. However, even though they were Japanese, their use of honorific language was quite incorrect, so I think that area could be improved.

食事は特筆するような感じでもなかったのですが、
ショー（ダンス）は興味深かったです。ポリネシアの色々なダンスを
間近で見ることが出来て良かったです。
送迎バスに添乗してくれたスタッフさんは学生さんとのことで、
一生懸命、務めていらしたように思えました。
ただ、日本人なのに、敬語の使い方が
結構、間違っていたので、そのあたりは改善された方がいいと思います。

A Japanese student guided us. I learned a lot about Polynesia, which I knew nothing about before. The night show is also performed by students, and it was very enjoyable.

日本人学生が案内してくれました。
何も知らなかったポリネシアの事が良く解り、大変勉強にもなりました。
ナイトショーも学生が行っているそうですが、とても楽しかったです。

It was very good‼︎ I was in the third row, and I could hear not only the cast's expressions but also their breathing, which was incredibly powerful. I was moved by everything. I want to see it again when I go to Hawaii.

とても良かったです‼︎
前から三列目の席で、キャストの表情はもちろん息づかいまで聞こえて迫力満載でした。全てに感動しました。またハワイに行ったら見に行きたいです。

When I was thinking about what to choose for my uncle and aunt who are going to Hawaii for the first time, I found this show. I had always wanted to go, but I hesitated because I wasn't sure how it would be with small children. After the dinner, both my uncle and aunt were impressed by the powerful show and came back thrilled. Next time, I plan to take my sons with me.

初めてハワイにでかける伯父伯母に何を選ぼうと思った時、このショーを見つけました。私は今まで行きたいけれど小さい子供連れにはどうかなとしり込みしていました。夕食後の迫力あるショーに伯父も伯母も感激して帰ってきました。次回は息子たちを連れて行ってみようと思います。

A Japanese student explained everything to us, and it was very easy to understand and enjoyable. The evening show was quite long, and I dozed off a bit at the beginning, but the fire show at the end was absolutely amazing. I want to see it again!

日本人学生の子が説明して回ってくれ、とても分かりやすくたのしかった。夜のショーはけっこう長く最初の方はうとうと寝てしまったが、最後の方のファイヤーショウは、最高にすごかった。もう一度見たい！
