The location is the central spot in Waikiki, the Royal Hawaiian. When I arrived, there was a hotel staff strike demonstration nearby. I worried about how much inconvenience it would cause for the guests staying there, and feeling down due to the noise, I headed to the venue. When the time came, I was welcomed with fresh hula and Mai Tai drinks. My gloomy mood was instantly lifted, and my excitement for the event reached its peak. I was escorted to the VIP seats by the stage, enjoyed the main dish, and was fully satisfied as the showtime began. The motivation was at its highest during the hula and Elvis shows. Sweet memories of my adolescence resurfaced, and for some reason, tears started flowing uncontrollably! At the exit, I took commemorative photos with the hula girls and Elvis. It was a very satisfying show.

場所はワイキキの中心スポット、ロイヤルハワイアン。ヘーゴッパで向かったところ、周辺ではホテルスタッフのストライキデモ。宿泊のゲストにどれ程の迷惑何だろうか心配し、余りの喧騒に憂鬱になりながら会場へ。時間になると、生フラとマイタイのウエルカムドリンクがお出迎え。憂鬱な気分は即座に払拭され、イベントへの期待感は最高潮へ、ステージサイドのVIP席へエスコートされ、メインディッシュに舌鼓を打ち、腹は満腹で迎えたショータイム。フラやエルビスのショーにモチベーションは最高潮に。思春期の甘い思い出が蘇り、何故か大粒の涙が堰を切って大洪水に！　出口ではフラガールやエルビスと記念写真。大満足のショーでした。

My parents in their 60s wanted to join for the first time! There were two other groups of Japanese people as well. Once we headed out to sea, we raised the sail and picked up speed, and we got splashed by the waves a few times (when standing at the edge of the boat), but that was fun. Even if you can't speak English, you can manage just fine! The staff came over several times to check if we were enjoying ourselves and if everything was okay. My parents were the happiest, so we would like to participate again.

60代の両親が乗りたい！と初めて参加しました。ほかに二組日本人がいました。
沖に出ると帆をあげてグングンスピードをあげ波が何度かかかりました(ボートのへりに立っていると)がそれが楽しかったです。
英語が話せなくてもノリで乗り切れます！
スタッフの人も何度も楽しんでるか大丈夫か声をかけにきてくれました。
両親が一番喜んでいたのでまた参加したいと思います。

Beautiful swimming with the turtles and fish. The staff was awesome. Funny and just wanting to help with any need we had. Beautiful view of the island and Waikiki. Thank for a Great Afternoon Guys. Aloha

I booked this snorkeling activity for a short duration since a full-day activity seemed tiring. We checked in at Outrigger Beach and set sail! There was only one other Japanese couple with us; the rest were from overseas. The captain gave explanations in English, so I didn't understand much (laughs), but I could get the gist through gestures, so it was okay.

We received a full set of gear, including goggles, and headed into the sea! It seems wearing a life jacket is mandatory, but those who were experienced took them off. I was able to let some air out and dive a bit, so I thoroughly enjoyed the ocean.

Along the way, a sea turtle appeared, and I was able to see it up close! It was exciting to watch it come up for air and be so close. After swimming to my heart's content, we went sailing. Some people were drinking, and it turned into a bit of a party. They even took pictures for us, and we had a great time☆

I recommend this for anyone looking to do an activity without spending too much time!

1日がかりのアクティビティは疲れてしまいそうなので、短時間でシュノーケリングができるこちらを予約しました。
アウトリガーのビーチで受付して出航です！日本人は私達と1組の夫婦のみで、あとは海外の方ばかりでした。船長が説明をしてくれますが、英語なのでほぼ分かりませんでした(笑)ジャスチャーでなんとなく分かるのでオッケーです。
ゴーグル等セットを一式もらって海へ！救命胴衣は必須のようですが、慣れている方は外していました。少し空気を抜いて潜ったりできたので、思いっきり海を満喫しました。
途中、ウミガメが現れてしっかり見ることができました！空気を吸いに上がってきたり、かなり近くで見れたのは嬉しかったです。思う存分泳いで、その後はセーリング。お酒を飲んでる方もいて、ちょっとしたパーティーになってました。写真を撮ってくれたり、楽しく過ごせました☆
時間をかけずアクティビティをしたい方はオススメです！

Nice staff, beautiful way to see the shoreline of Waikiki. Loved the music.

This was awesome! The entire crew was funny and helpful. There were plenty of turtles and fish for everyone to enjoy! The only downside was how many different groups of tourists were also at the same location at the same time. Still plenty of awesome pictures and fun!! Would do it again in a heart beat!

Our driver and tour guide, Lola, did a great job explaining both the history and local importance of the sites we visited. Her sense of humor made the tour all the more enjoyable.

I wanted to go on a sunset cruise, but it was fully booked, so I gave up on that. However, choosing this option was definitely the right decision!

I've walked on Waikiki Beach before, but seeing the beach and Diamond Head from the ocean was spectacular.

It was faster than I expected and thrilling. The only downside was a group of students from Canada who were making a lot of noise, getting injured, and even throwing up. However, I think it was an experience that makes me want to participate again.

サンセットクルーズに乗りたかったのですが、予約がいっぱいで断念しましたが、こちらにして大正解でした！
ワイキキビーチで散歩したことはあっても、海から見るビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドは壮観でした。

思ったよりスピードがあって、スリリングでした。
カナダからの学生の団体がいて、大騒ぎして怪我をしていたり、吐いたりしてて騒がしかったのが唯一の難点でした。
しかし、また参加したいと思える内容だったと思います。

I was worried about departing due to the rainy season, but fortunately, the weather was nice, and I was able to see a beautiful sunset over the sea from the ship, which became a wonderful memory! The crew members were cheerful, and I enjoyed some light snacks (like chips and bread) to satisfy my hunger, making it a fun experience!

雨期のため出港するか不安でしたが、運よく天気も良く船上から綺麗な夕日を海から見ることができ、とても良い思い出になりました！船員の方たちも陽気で、軽食(チップスやパンなど)で小腹も満たされ、楽しかったです！

This time, I chose the Stage Side VIP Dinner Course for Rock of Ages, which I had been curious about for a while. After enjoying a Mai Tai and various snacks at the welcome reception, along with beautifully arranged fruit, we moved to our stage-side seats.

The dinner included a main lobster, salmon, steak, and salad, all served in just the right portions and delicious. We enjoyed the show while sipping drinks without having to move from our seats. The impersonators of Elvis and Michael, along with the female vocalist, were excellent in both singing and performance. The collaboration of hula dancing and rock and roll was captivating and left us very satisfied.

The cast also came down close to us, and there was a fire dance, making for a high-quality show that kept us excited the entire time. We were even able to take photos with the cast after the show. There were families with small children, so I thought it would be nice to bring my daughter’s family next time.

今回は前から気になっていたロック・ア・フラショーのステージサイドＶＩＰディナーコースを選びました。ウエルカムレセプションでマイタイと各種おつまみや、お花仕立てのフルーツを頂いた後ステージサイドの席へ移動。
ディナーは、メインのロブスターにサーモン、ステーキ、サラダ等どれも程良い量で美味しく戴きました。席の移動もなくドリンクを飲みながらショーを拝見。エルビス、マイケル両そっくりさんと女性ボーカルは歌もパフォーマンスもうまく、ダンサーとのフラダンス、ロックンロールのコラボは魅力たっぷりで大満足。
キャストも近くに降りてきたり、ファイヤーダンスもありと休む間もないクオリティーの高いショーで大興奮のひと時でした。ショー後にキャストとの写真も撮れました。小さいお子様ずれの方もいたので、次回は娘家族も連れてきたいと思いました。

The food was delicious, and the seating was right in front, which made me very satisfied! I had such a fun time. The lively atmosphere felt very much like being abroad, and I was really glad I came to Hawaii. The welcome drink was tasty, and I could choose between alcoholic and non-alcoholic options. The fruit platter was cute, and everything was enjoyable from start to finish. The main dish, lobster, and the seasoning of the meat were just right, and I finished it all (laughs). It might have been a bit too much for Japanese people, but I was able to eat slowly, which was really nice. The show was loud, almost full, and even without understanding English, I enjoyed just watching it. I definitely want to make a reservation again next time! They also took photos for us, which became a memorable keepsake. Other Japanese guests seemed to be having a great time too, and since the location is facing Kalakaua Avenue, it was easy to find. I felt that the atmosphere is really important. Time flew by quickly. The Hawaiian vibe, the excitement of being abroad, and the food all resulted in complete satisfaction! I thought I might not need the photos, but it’s nice to have something tangible to remember it by. We could also take videos and photos, which made for fun memories!

お料理も美味しく、座席も目の前で大満足でした！すごく、楽しい時間を過ごせました。海外らしい盛り上がりで、ハワイに来て良かったなとすごく重いました(^^)ウェルカムドリンクも美味しく、アルコールとノンアルコールを選べたり、フルーツの盛り合わせも可愛く、最初から最後まで楽しかったです。メインのロブスター、お肉の味付けも丁度良く完食しました（笑）日本人には少し量が多かったかもですが、ゆっくり食べることができたのですごく良かったです(^^)ショーも大音量で、満席近く、英語がわからなくても、見てるだけで楽しめました(^^)次も、予約したいと思います！！写真も撮ってもらい、思い出に残るものとなりました。ほかの日本人の方もすごく楽しそうにしており、場所もカラカウア通りに面しているのでまようことなく行けました。雰囲気って、すごく大事なんだなぁと感じました☆時間がたつのが、早かったですね。ハワイらしさと、海外のテンション、そしてお料理、全てが満足となる結果でした！写真は要らないかな？と思いましたが、やっぱり形に残るものがあると良いですね(^^)ビデオ撮影や、写真を撮ることも出来たので、楽しい思い出となりました！！

Outstanding, I will return to do it again with them.

I went to the big show in Hawaii at the Royal Hawaiian Center!
First of all, it's easily accessible since it's located in the Hawaiian Center.
This time, I experienced the show from a VIP seat, which allowed me to enjoy a close-up view, and I also indulged in a course dinner for a luxurious experience.
The show features a rock vibe from the past, including performances of songs by Michael Jackson, as well as some calming Hawaiian tunes.
It's not just the singing; the powerful dances are also a must-see.
The show lasts about an hour, and you will be captivated the entire time—satisfaction is guaranteed. If you're going to see it, I highly recommend the VIP seats! It's definitely entertaining!
I was truly satisfied with the content, which exceeded my expectations!
I want to see it again!

ロイヤルハワイアンセンター内にあるハワイのビックショーに行ってきました！
まずはハワイアンセンターにあるのでアクセスが良いです。
今回はVIP席でショーを見ることになったので、かなり近くからの席の経験ができたのと、コースディナーも満喫することでリッチな体験ができました。
ショーの内容は昔のロックなテイストで、マイケルジャクソンなどをみたり、ハワイらしい落ち着いたテイストの曲などもあります。
歌だけではなく迫力満点のダンスなどにも要注目です。
ショーは約1時間。この1時間は魅力されっぱなしで満足すること間違いなしです。せっかく見るならVIP席をオススメします！絶対に面白いです！
期待以上の内容で本当に満足でした！
また見たいです！

I was torn between a traditional luau in the suburbs and this one, but I decided on the Rock-a-Hula show because it was within walking distance from the hotel and there was no need for bus transportation, plus the promotional price was tempting. I'm really glad I chose this one. First of all, the food was delicious! Unlike other dishes I've had in Hawaii, the seasoning was not too strong, just right, and although it was luxurious and plentiful, it wasn't greasy at all, so I finished it all quickly. There were also Japanese staff members in the hall who frequently checked in on us, which made me feel at ease. The content of the hula show was a great mix of traditional elements and some well-known songs from a bit earlier, so the time flew by without getting boring. The impersonators of Michael and Elvis were also very talented and entertaining. While some might say the show was short, I felt satisfied with the rich content. I hope to come back and see it again someday. Thank you very much! (´∀｀*)!!!

ぎりぎりまで郊外の伝統的なルアウかこちらかで迷いましたが、ホテルから徒歩圏内でバス移動がないことと、モニター価格につられてロック・ア・フラショーに決めましたが、こちらに決めて本当に良かったです。まず、お料理が美味しい！今までハワイでさんざん食べたほかのお料理と違って味付けが濃くなく丁度よく、豪華で量も多いのですが油っこくないのでぺろっと食べてしまいました。ホールには日本人らしき従業員もおられて、こまめに声掛けをしてくれるので安心して過ごすことができました。フラショーの内容も、伝統的なものに少し前の有名な曲等を織り交ぜて飽きさせることなくあっという間に時間が経ちました。マイケルやエルビスのそっくりさんも
とても上手く演じていて楽しめました。ショーが短いという意見もありますが、内容が濃いので満足出来ました。いつかまた機会があったら見にきたいと思います。ありがとうございました(´∀｀*)!!!

I participated in the tour starting at 12:00. The snorkeling lasted about an hour. There were four sea turtles swimming, and I was able to see them up close when they surfaced for air. However, it was disappointing to see someone of Asian descent touching the sea turtles at that time. After that, we cruised for about an hour before returning.

12時からのツアーに参加しました。
シュノーケリングは大体1時間程度で行われました。ウミガメが4匹泳いでおり、息継ぎで浮上した際には間近で見る事が出来ました。ただ、その時にアジア系の人がウミガメに触れており、残念でした。そのあと1時間程度クルージングをして戻る流れです。

At first, I had low expectations, but the entertainment was of very high quality and I really enjoyed it. One downside was that the spacing between the tables in the VIP section was narrow; I would have liked a bit more room.

最初はあり期待をしていませんでしたがエンターテイメントしてクオリティが非常に高く楽しめました。ちょっと残念だったのがVIP席のテーブル間隔が狭かった事、もう少し隙間がほしかった。

Was expecting more glass, more drinking, and more swimming. But it was still a great time. The guides were great and knowledgeable. And we saw turtles!

It was the best tour I've ever participated in. There were only the two of us Japanese, and the rest were foreigners, but there were so many fish, and it was my first experience swimming so close to a sea turtle. It was an emotional moment after visiting Hawaii so many times.

今までの参加したツアーの中で最高のツアーでした。
日本人は私たち二人で後は外人ばかりでしたが、魚が沢山いたうえに、ウミガメとあんなに近くで一緒に泳げたのは、初めての経験でした。
渡ハ何十回めにしての感動ものでした。

Best thing I did in Hawaii. Crew were amazing! Cornbin was my favourite (dude with the shredded 6 pack and sweet smile). The perfect way to see some beautiful turtles. Also great opportunity to sale the crystal clear waters. 10/10.

Purchased our VIP package from the outset it was a great night good food fantastic entertainment and a very lovely waitress all made it a very special evening. The costumes were amazing and singers and dancers excellent a true taste of Hawaii and its culture along with a lot of happy memories of different musical stars we have

Great boat and friendly crew, relaxing morning and turtles easily spotted. Highly recommended

I participated in the tour for my wife, who loves hula. The location was convenient, being close to the hotel and having a shopping mall nearby. Above all, the entertainment from the show was excellent.

フラ好きの女房の母親の為にツアーに参加しました。
場所がホテルから近くショッピングモールも有り便利でした。
何よりショーのエンターテイメントが最高でした。

I was wondering if the food wouldn't be good because it's a buffet, but the quality is high! The whole roasted pig and roast beef are really delicious. The show was also amazing, and the venue was lively, it was the best!

ブュッフェだからご飯が美味しくないのかなーと思っていたら、質が高いです！豚の丸焼き、ローストビーフも本当に美味しい。ショーもすごく会場が盛り上がり最高でした！

If you want to get out of Waikiki for a quick outing then this Tradewind Sail with Mana Kai Catamaran is perfect! Departing from the middle of Waikiki, it's a beach boarding and all you need is a pair of sunglasses and water. The captain and crew took us towards out the blue ocean and there you are just sitting looking at the iconic Diamond Head.
It's was great to just relax and bake under the sun for one hour!

The staff doesn't speak any Japanese at all, but you can understand where the life jackets are and how to wear them through body language and nuances. The only other Japanese guests were a family with us, and everyone else was probably American, so we couldn't understand the English jokes and conversations, but since we came to Hawaii, we shouldn't expect Japanese. The waves were very calm, and it was clear until it started to get cloudy on our way back, which felt really nice. The experience of seeing the cityscape of Honolulu and the differently oriented Diamond Head from the sea is quite rare, making it a very valuable and refreshing experience. We were also lucky enough to have dolphins swimming alongside us. You can buy alcohol and soft drinks on board. There was a commemorative photo taken before departure, and you pay $15 when you return.

スタッフは全く日本語を話せませんが、救命胴衣がどこにあるか、どうやって着用するかの説明はボディランゲージやニュアンスでわかります。お客さんも私たちともう一組の親子だけが日本人で、あとはたぶん全員アメリカ人で、英語のジョークなど会話がわかりませんが、ハワイに来たのだから日本語に期待してはいけないのです。とても穏やかな波で、帰り際に曇ってくるまでは快晴で、とても気持ちが良かったです。海からホノルルの街並みや向きの違うダイヤモンドヘッドが見られる体験はなかなかできないので、とても貴重で、また爽快な体験でした。イルカが並走するという幸運もありました。船内でお酒やソフトドリンクが買えます。出航前に記念撮影があり、帰ってくると$15払います。

This trip is AMAZING and Highly recommended. The 4 gentlemen that took us out were great and very attentive. They took us to the best spot for snorkelling and saw a ton if sea turtles. The atmosphere and company can't be beat. If you don't do ANYTHING ELSE in Hawaii do THIS!!!!

Since it was a VIP course, we started in a lounge-like area with Mai Tais and self-service snacks (such as prosciutto with pineapple, fruit skewers with melon, macadamia nuts, and potato chips). After that, we moved to our dining seats and enjoyed a course meal. We had informed Veltra in advance that we were bringing our one-year-old daughter, so a seat for her was also prepared.

During the meal, our daughter was able to participate in a treasure hunt game, which made her happy as she could walk around the venue (sitting still for the entire meal would have been boring for a one-year-old).

After the meal, the show began. With the VIP course, we could watch the show from our dining seats (on the first floor) while continuing to enjoy our drinks. For the regular course, it seemed that guests finished their meals outside the venue before entering the second-floor seating.

The show started with hula dancing, followed by an Elvis Presley impersonation show, a Michael Jackson impersonation show, and finally, fire dancing and hula dancing. All of it was wonderful, and we had a great time. I'm not sure if the quality of the Michael impersonation was high, but it was enjoyable nonetheless.

Last year, we watched a hula dance show at the Polynesian Cultural Center, which was a more traditional show that showcased Hawaiian culture without any sexy costumes (and that was good in its own way). In contrast, this show was a complete entertainment show with sexy and beautiful hula costumes, and it also allowed for a lively rock atmosphere, making us feel like we were in America! While I didn't know many of the songs, I still had a lot of fun.

Since there is a rock segment, the time for hula dancing isn't very long, so if you want to focus solely on hula dancing, I would recommend other shows. However, if you want to enjoy both American-style music and hula dancing, this show is highly recommended. The location is also at the Royal Hawaiian Center, so for those staying in Waikiki, it's within walking distance, which is a great point for efficient use of time.

VIPコースでしたので、初めにラウンジのようなところでマイタイとセルフサービスのおつまみ（生ハムパイナップル、メロン等の果物串、マカデミアナッツ、ポテトチップス）をいただきました。
それから、各自食事の席まで移動し、コース料理をいただきました。
我が家は1歳の娘連れであることをベルトラさんを通して事前に伝えていたため、娘の席も用意していただいていました。
食事の間に娘は宝探しゲームに参加させていただき、会場を歩くことができて喜んでいました。（1歳の娘にとって食事中ずっとイスに座っているのは退屈なので）

食事が終わると、ショーが始まります。
VIPコースは食事の席（1階席）でそのまま観覧するため、引き続き飲み物を飲みながら見ました。
普通のコースだと、会場の外で食事を終えてから2階席に入場していたようです。

ショーはフラダンスから始まり、エルビスプレスリーの（ものまね）ショー、マイケルジャクソンの（ものまね）ショー、最後にファイヤーダンスとフラダンスという感じで進みました。
どれもとても素敵で、楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
マイケルのものまねのクオリティーが高かったのかどうかは謎ですが（笑）、楽しめたのでありだと思います。

昨年はポリネシア・カルチャーセンターのフラダンスショーを見ましたが、そちらは、セクシーな衣装などはなしでハワイの文化をしっかり見せる正統派なショーという感じでした。（それはそれでよかったです）
それに対してこちらは完全なエンターテイメントショーで、フラダンスの衣装もセクシーで素敵で、同時に、ロックで盛り上がることもでき、「アメリカにきたって気がする！（笑）」という気分を味わうことができました。
知っている曲は多くありませんでしたが、それでもとても楽しめました。

ロックの時間がある分、フラダンスの時間は長くありませんので、フラダンスだけをじっくり見たい方は他のショーをお勧めしますが、アメリカっぽい音楽もフラダンスも両方楽しみたい方にはお勧めです。
場所もロイヤルハワイアンセンターなので、ワイキキに宿泊している方は徒歩で行けますので、時間が効率的に使えるのも良い点ではないでしょうか。

Had a great time out, saw loads of turtles and even dolphins. Also great to experience the waves whilst sailing out. Jeromino was a really great guide, the whole team were brilliant and took fantastic care of us. Would really recommend this tour definite one oc the highlights of our stay on Oahu!

It was a fun stage not just for dining and watching the show, but also featuring interactive events! There was a practice time for hula dancing, a contest where randomly selected guests were invited on stage to blow a conch shell (or something like that?), and opportunities to dance with the performers—there was so much going on. The hula dancers showcased various patterns of dance. The English MC was explaining things, but it was a bit fast and hard to understand... Still, I enjoyed it thoroughly. The fire dance was amazing!

The meal had a Hawaiian flair, and it was nice that it wasn't overly extravagant. The fish dish was the most delicious.

ただ食事をしてショーを見るだけでなく、参加型イベントもある楽しいステージでした！
フラダンスの練習タイムがあったり、お客さんの中からランダムにステージに上げられて、ホラ貝（のようなもの？）を吹くコンテストがあったり、ダンサーと一緒に踊ったり、盛りだくさんです。
フラダンスは様々なパターンのダンスを見せてくれます。
英語のMCで説明していたようですが、早口でよくわからず、、、
それでも十分楽しめました。
ファイヤーダンスは最高でしたね！

お食事はハワイらしい内容で、豪華すぎなくて良かったです。
お魚料理が一番美味しかったです。

I watched from the second floor with a simple ticket without a meal. As expected from a professional. Both Michael and Presley had high quality performances. The show ended in the blink of an eye.

食事なしのシンプルなチケットで2階席で見ました。さすがプロですね。マイケルもプレスリーも、クオリティ高いです。あっという間にショーが終わっちゃいました。
