I attended this luau with a friend that actually knew a lot of the workers. The food was so delicious and the greeters were so friendly! As for the show, Tihati really put on a great show! Great experience, I highly recommend this luau. The manager is also friendly and he walks around greeting everyone, I thought was really nice.

This tour was just above and beyond! Im not a beach person nor do I like swimming but this turtle snorkel just made me fall in love with the ocean. The captain and crew were great! They knew exactly how to keep everyone happy and safe! I see so many turtle, fishes and and octopus that the crew actually snatched and had us hold. I love this snorkel and will definitely be going back!

We travel a lot and love an afternoon sail. Wednesday's 3pm sail featured mellow 70s music (CCR, Eagles, and that classic plane crash ditty Fire and Rain, along with some 50s tunes). Really? Music that's 40 - 58 years old?
The captains seemed barely engaged in their jobs, chatting with each other about filing their taxes for much of the 90 minute sail.
Though the trades weren't blowing, no effort was made to find enough wind to make it feel like a sail, nor did our crew display any interest in pointing out local landmarks, Hawaiian history and lore, or the flora and fauna.
There were good at hustling the $2 waters and sodas and $10 refillable drinks and reminding us to tip.
Snooze.

Great crew, great boat and lots of turtles. We were amazed how close to shore we were and how many turtles we saw. The turtles do not seem to be phased by the snorkelers and just hang around having their shells cleaned by the small reef fish. Fantastic to watch!

I made a reservation based on a recommendation from a local friend. Depending on where you are, the waves can splash, making it feel like an attraction, and I had a great time. The captain is American, and since there are few Japanese participants, you can really experience the international atmosphere.

Even if it's hot during the day, it's better to bring something to wear at night.
I couldn't drink cold beverages because it was too cold.

Outstanding crew aboard the Holokai Catamaran...Extremely friendly, helpful and fun. They made sure all guests were instructed in snorkel usage before entering the water and were right there next to us in the water ready to aid for any reason.
Our sail was extra exciting as dolphins swam around our catamaran, and we spotted whales too. We were able to swim amongst sea turtles and an array of fish.
*Would I recommend Holokai Catamaran Turtle Canyon Snorkel Sail to my friends and family?
YES!!
*Would I ever take this sail again?
ABSOLUTELY YES!!
Reasonably priced for this adventure with buffet and they do not over crowd the boat. They even had a snorkel with a prescription mask so I could see underwater without glasses.

After reading some experiences, I wanted to see this show when I went to Hawaii. Since I wanted to enjoy it to the fullest, I made a reservation for VIP seats. The experience started with dinner, and then we leisurely watched the show. Those who reserved VIP seats were able to enjoy cocktails and snacks before dinner. I didn't have high expectations for the food, but the steak was delicious, and the mashed potatoes with truffles were very tasty. The content of the show was also very fulfilling, and I had a great time until the end. I definitely want to go again when I visit Hawaii.
体験談を見てハワイに行ったらこのショーを見たいと思いました。
せっかく鑑賞するならVIP席が良いと思い予約しました。

It was a luxury to be able to view the beach from the ocean side. Swimming with the turtles while snorkeling was a lot of fun. There were many turtles, and they seemed unfazed by the large number of tourists. Since we were on a boat, I didn't bring my camera or any money, so I couldn't take any photos, which was disappointing. If you have some pocket money, you can buy drinks.

I've been diving all over the world for the past 15 years and this is by far one of my favorites. Beautiful water with greater than 50 feet of visibility. Saw seven sea turtles up close and it was just a spectacular experience. Make sure to rent the fins from the beach, worth it. Crew was knowledgeable, friendly and just all around awesome. So was the house special drink. This is a not to missed experience with a company that makes it unforgettable. They will absolutely see me again.

I made a reservation for the night of my arrival on Oahu! We had dinner at a different restaurant beforehand. The show was so lively, in a way that you don't see in Japan, and I had a great time!
Since it's located in the center of Waikiki, I was able to go shopping while still in a festive mood. At the end of the show, we could take photos, and I took one with Michael and Celine!
One disappointing thing was that since it was close to the hotel, I opted for no transportation, but the explanation for the voucher was unclear, and I had trouble purchasing the tickets. It said "meet on-site," so I waited in front of the ticket counter, but when the time came, I ended up buying them myself. There were many Japanese people who seemed to be guides, but there was no announcement or anything. I thought there would be someone there since it said to gather, but that wasn't the case. It might be an issue of comprehension, but I wish it had been explained more clearly.
I arrived early and waited, but ended up in the back row, so I feel like there's no point in reserving through Veltra next time. The audience was about two-thirds full.
In response to the above comments, I will give the lowest rating due to the standard response. The show itself is wonderful, so I recommend it to those who are unsure!
オアフ島到着日の夜に予約!食事は別のレストランで食べてから。ショーは日本にはないかんじの盛り上がり方で、とっても楽しかったです!
ワイキキの中心部にあるため盛り上がった気分のままショッピングに行けます。ショーの最後には写真撮影もでき、マイコーとセリーヌと撮りました!
ひとつ残念だったのは、ホテルから近かったため送迎なしにしたところ、バウチャーの説明が分かりづらくチケット購入に手間取りました。
[現地集合]とあり窓口前でずっと待っていましたが時間になってしまい、自分で買いました。ガイドらしき日本人もたくさんいましたが呼びかけも何もありませんでした。集合というからには誰かいるものだと思ったのですが違ったのですね。読解力の問題かもしれませんがもっと分かりやすく記載して頂きたかったです。
せっかく早く着いて待っていたのに結局後ろの席になったため、次はベルトラで予約する意味はないかなというかんじです。客入りは3分の2くらいでした。
以上のコメントに対し、定型文での返答の為、最低評価にさせて頂きます。
ショー自体は素晴らしいものですので迷ってる方にはオススメですよ。

We did some other snorkelling while in Hawaii and were quite disappointed. We were so glad we booked this trip to do some more. We were taken out to some deeper water and as soon as we jumped off the boat we saw multiple turtles! It was amazing. I have never seen turtles this big and so many in one spot. We spent about an hour snorkelling and then went on a sail out in the sun. The boat is quite spacious and room for groups to keep to themselves or sit with others. The staff were all very helpful and fun to have a chat to. I would definitely go out with these guys again if we return to Hawaii.

We booked for 10 people, but there were no other passengers, so it was a private charter. We enjoyed the leisurely flow of time, the bright blue sky, and the emerald sea while sipping cocktails. Additionally, we were thrilled to see a whale spouting about 200 meters away! The cruiser staff were very friendly, but one small disappointment was that the meeting place was different. It was supposed to be at the pier, but when we arrived on time, we found the reception area at the edge of the hotel building.
10名で申し込みましたが、他に乗船する方が無く、貸切でした。ゆったりと流れる時間と真っ青な空、エメラルドので海、カクテルを飲みながら満喫しました。さらに偶然200メートル位先に、クジラの潮吹きが見れ、とても感動しました!
クルーザーのスタッフはとても親切でよかったのですが、少しだけ残念だったのは集合場所が違っていたことです。桟橋との事で時間までに行ったらホテル建物の端に受付スペースが有ってそちらでした。

I arrived in Hawaii and the next day experienced flying a plane. The following day, we chartered a car to explore from land, and while joking with my family about sightseeing from the sky and land, we made a reservation for the sea at midnight, and when I woke up in the morning, I found out the reservation was successful. We arrived at the meeting point during the day and boarded the boat. I had prepared for getting completely soaked from the splashes of the waves, but there were no waves at all, just a calm sea, and we saw the tail of a whale a couple of times. The view of Waikiki from the sea is special and worth experiencing. If I had to complain, it would be that the operator took time to line up each group for photos before boarding the boat for their business purposes. The goal was to sell the developed photos when disembarking after the cruise, but I thought they should limit that to only those who wanted it. I didn't like their selfishness and had no intention of buying the photos when getting off.
ハワイに到着し、次の日に飛行機操縦体験をし、その次の日は車をチャーターし陸から、そして家族と冗談で空と陸から観光的たので次は海かという話をしながら夜中予約を入れたが朝起きてみたら予約成功。昼間集合場所に着いて船に乗る。波のしぶきで全身濡れるという体験談を見たのでその覚悟で服を用意し乗り込んだが波が全くなく穏やかな海、鯨の尻尾も二回くらい見えた。海から見るワイキキの景色は特別で体験する価値あり。不満を言えば催行者側が商売のために船に乗る前グループ毎に並ばせて写真撮るのに時間かかったこと。クルーズが終わって降りる際に現像した写真を売るのが目的だがそんなもの希望する人だけに絞ればいいのにと思った。その彼らの自分勝手が気にいらず降りる時その写真を買う気なんかしなかった。

On the night of our wedding in Hawaii, we went with both families! When making the reservation, I was torn between the buffet and the VIP dinner, but since it was both our wedding day and my birthday, I decided to go for the VIP dinner. The food was delicious, featuring lobster, steak, and salmon, all beautifully presented.
During the show, an Elvis impersonator came down from the stage to hug us and even gave us leis. My mother, who is from the Elvis generation, was thrilled with the lei and the hug! He also visited the second-floor seats. The performances by Elvis, Gaga, and Michael, along with the hula show, were all so much fun!
After the show, we were able to take commemorative photos with Elvis, Gaga, and Michael! I even got a signature on a photo I had purchased in advance. When I told Elvis that it was my birthday and wedding day, he congratulated me and gifted me the scarf he was wearing around his neck! Even though he was an impersonator, I felt like I had met the real deal, and it was so exciting (laughs).
It seemed like my family enjoyed it too, and it turned out to be a wonderful night! I would love to see other impersonators next time!
