All Reviews for Waikiki Things to Do

It was supposed to be a straight-forward excursion... pick us up, drop us off, pick us up again. However, our driver (unfortunately, I did not get his name) was such a hoot!!! At 5am, he had an energy and attitude that made everyone in the bus a little bit happier The pickup was quick and efficient. The driver made every stop an occasion.

It was an amazing tour ...the staff is super friendly and the small group mad it so privat ....we had just a wonderful time

このクルーズはⅡも含めて4回子供達と体験していますが、海側からのワイキキの景観が素晴らしい👍クルーもフレンドリーで親切！
リーズナブルに最高の経験ができます。

I had no problems at all and used the Pink Line comfortably around Waikiki. However, once you go a bit further out, the bus stops can be very hard to find. Without the Lealea mark and with some discrepancies on the map, I felt quite anxious waiting, unsure if I was at the right stop.

ワイキキ周辺やピンクラインも利用出来るので全く問題なく快適に利用しました。
ちょっと郊外に行くとバス停が非常にわかりにくい。
レアレアのマークがないのと地図と若干違いもあり待っていても合っているのか非常に不安でした

Food was very good and the service was great. Not a traditional beach Luau but still worth while.

The hula dance was wonderful. It was just like Michael Jackson, and I even got to see the moonwalk, which was amazing. The fire dance was also spectacular, making it a very enjoyable show.

フラダンスが素敵でした。マイケルジャクソンがそっくりで、ムーンウォークまで見られて最高でした。ファイヤーダンスも豪快でとても楽しいショーでした。

Beware! Poor communication and NOT a sunrise tour as stated

This was sold as a sunrise at Diamond Head which turns out NOT ACCURATE AT  ALL! Diamond Head doesn’t even open until 6:00 and sunrise was 6:11 that day. By the time the van was parked it was 6:06. So obviously we did not make it to the top or even to a look out point to view the sunrise. We did get some pretty pictures BUT it was not sunrise by far. Even the pick up location was a rough start and poor, poor communication.  The instructions to 5:15 a.m pick up were at Hyatt Regency and the address. That’s it, that’s all the information that was given. So, we show up, we’re waiting and waiting then the driver calls and ask if we’re coming. Jon told him we’re here where we standing and he said no they’re on the side of the building. We go to the side of the building, which turns out to be a side road. Which looks like a shady looking road for deliveries and the van is parked behind the dumpster, picture attached. Now image this side street, van parked behind the dumpster at 5:00 a.m in the dark.
After the hike we returned at 7:31. Now pick up was at 7:30 and we did show up 1 minute late at  7:31 and the van was gone. Again, we’re waiting and looking. After a few minutes Jon calls. Thankfully we had the phone number from when he called us that morning or we would’ve had no clue what to do. Turns out THEY HAD LEFT! The driver tells us to wait there that he will turn around to come get us. When I questioned the driver about leaving us he said “Julie told you to be back at 7:30” to which I explained  we were back at 7:31 and called you at 7:33. He said I was coming back. I questioned again, “how were we to know that? All we knew was that our tour had left us. You could’ve called like you did this morning but instead you just drove off. “ He was never able to give a reason for just driving off or not even calling. He just kept saying, you were told to be back at 7:30.  My advice DO NOT TAKE THIS TOUR WITH THIS

Unfortunately, the weather on the day was not great, and with the wind during the ride, it was quite cold. Most of the Japanese people who were with me seemed to be shivering and staying still. However, the staff were very good at getting everyone excited, engaging with us all, and they quickly brought us more drinks, which made the experience enjoyable.

A person from another country who happened to be sitting next to me took a lot of pictures of us, which became a nice memory. The selection of lively music and the snacks they handed out in the second half were also great. The views of Waikiki Beach and the surrounding area from the ocean side, as well as the sunset and night scenery, were very beautiful. I think it would have been truly perfect if it had been warm!

当日あいにくの天気だったため、走行中は＋風もあるのでかなり寒かった。
乗り合わせた日本人の大半が震えてじっとしている感じでした。
ただスタッフの方が非常に盛り上げ上手で満遍なく声かけてくれ、
お酒もすぐにおかわりを持ってきてくれて楽しませてくれてありがたかったです！
たまたま隣に居合わせた他国の方が、自分たちの写真をたくさん撮ってくれたのも
良い思い出になりました。
盛り上がる音楽の選曲や、後半スナックを配ってくれるのも◎
普段見ることのない海側からみるワイキキビーチ周辺の景色や
サンセットや夜景もとても綺麗でした。これで暖かかったら本当に最高だと思う。

The staff was very kind. I was late for the entry time due to a prior commitment, but when I explained the situation and consulted with them, they responded flexibly, and I was able to participate without any issues.

The performance afterward was truly wonderful, and I had a very enjoyable time. I highly recommend it!

スタッフの方がとても親切でした。
前の予定の関係で入場時間に遅れてしまったのですが、事情を説明して相談したところ、柔軟に対応してくださり、無事に参加することができました。

その後のパフォーマンスも本当に素晴らしく、とても楽しい時間を過ごせました。ぜひおすすめしたいです！

The meals were plentiful and delicious 😊. The shows featuring Elvis, Michael, and the fire performance were all great. I was also happy to take photos with the cast after the show. It became a wonderful memory of my trip to Hawaii.

食事はボリュームたっぷりで美味しかったです😊ショーはエルビス・マイケル・ファイヤーパフォーマンスといずれも良かっです。ショーの後、キャスト達との写真撮影も嬉しかったです。いいハワイ旅行の思い出になりました。

The show lasted about an hour and a half, but during that time, I didn't get bored at all; I thought it was genuinely fun. The food was all-you-can-eat, so there was plenty of it. I think the taste suits Japanese people as well. Japanese guests were in the minority, though...

ショーは、1時間半くらいでしたが、その間飽きたりせず、普通に(純粋に)楽しいと思います。食事は、食べほなので量は十分あります。味も日本人にも合っていると思います。日本人客は、少数派ですね…

The food to the show it was outstanding Hyatt Regency knows how to do it

I attended the Waikiki Luau Hawaiian Show! ✨ Since I had a VIP seat, I was very close to the stage and could see the dancers' powerful performances and expressions clearly, which made me very satisfied. The fire dance was particularly amazing and left the biggest impression on me during the show. The spins and the intensity of the performance exceeded my expectations, and the entire venue was buzzing with excitement.

The buffet didn't have an overwhelming variety, but each dish was delicious, especially the whole roasted pig, which was very tasty.

Additionally, the layout required us to pass between seats to reach the exit, and there were times when people sitting on the aisle were unaware and remained seated comfortably, making it a bit difficult to get through.

Overall, the staff was courteous, and I felt at ease enjoying my first Hawaiian show. Experiencing Hawaiian music and dance up close made for a wonderful time that will be a memorable part of my trip. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to fully enjoy the Hawaiian atmosphere in Waikiki! 🌺

ワイキキルアウ ハワイアンショーに参加してきました！✨
VIP席だったのでステージがとても近く、ダンサーさんの迫力や表情までしっかり見えて大満足でした。特にファイヤーダンスが本当にすごくて、今回のショーで1番印象に残りました🔥 回転やパフォーマンスの迫力が想像以上で、会場全体も大盛り上がりでした。

ビュッフェは品数が多いという感じではないですが、その分ひとつひとつが美味しく、特に丸ごと豚のローストがとても美味しかったです。

また、席と席の間を通らないと出口に出られない構造になっているのですが、通路側にいても気づかずにゆったり座ったままの方もいて、通りづらいタイミングがあったのは少し気になりました。

全体的にはスタッフの対応も丁寧で、初めてのハワイアンショーでも安心して楽しめました。ハワイらしい音楽やダンスを間近で体験できて、旅行の思い出に残る素敵な時間になりました。ワイキキでハワイ気分を満喫したい方におすすめです🌺

Everyone I met locally was praising it. Since this was my sixth time, including trips to Japan and abroad, I wasn't as moved as others, but considering the weather wasn't great, I still felt it was worth going. I think it would be better to include such fun activities at night, not just hula and fire dancing.

現地で知り合った人達のすべてが、絶賛してました。
私は日本や海外を含めて6度目でしたので、そこまでの感動はありませんでしたが、
天候に恵まれなかったことも含め、行って良かったと思いました。
フラとファイヤーダンスだけで無く、こんな楽しみも夜に入れたほうが良いとは思います

It was a very impressive and worthwhile show, just as the reviews said. It's definitely worth seeing at least once. I think the seats in the front and back offer a good view of the whole performance since the venue is quite small. It was completely full, showing how popular it is. I was seated to the side, so my neck got tired.

口コミ通り迫力のある見応えのあるとても良いショーでした。ぜひ一度は見る価値ありますね。前方後ろのほうが全体がよく見えていい席だと思います。会場はこじんまりしているので。満席でした。スゴイ人気なんですね。私は横前だったので首が疲れました。

The 5:00 AM pickup made it easy to reach the trail before the crowds and heat, and the sunrise views from the summit were absolutely worth the early wake-up with rewarding panoramic views of Waikiki and the coastline at the top.

The Waikiki Trolley Hop-On Hop-Off Tour was a very convenient and enjoyable way to explore Honolulu and the surrounding areas at our own pace.

We saw colorful tropical fish, coral reefs, shipwrecks, and sunken airplanes!

The buffet and the traditional hula and luau show were amazing. I went alone, so I was a bit worried at first, but everyone sitting next to me was Japanese, and we enjoyed the meal while watching the show together. It was a really great night!

ビュッフェと伝統的なフラとルアウのショーでは最高でした
一人で行ったから、最初はちょっと心配してましたが
隣に座っていた方は全員日本の方で一緒にショーを見ながら、食事を楽しんでました
凄くいい夜でした！

The atmosphere was nice and I had a great time! It was a bit disappointing that I couldn't see the performers from my seat. The food was average...

雰囲気が良く楽しめました！
演奏者が見える席ではなかったので、少し残念でした。
お料理は、普通です…

It feels like there are fewer flights compared to before COVID, but it's convenient for shopping, and just being on the ride is enjoyable. I would like to use it again when I go to Hawaii.

コロナ前と比べると便数は少ない気もするけれど、買い物に行くのも便利だし、ただ乗っているだけでも楽しい。
ハワイに行ったらまた利用したい。

The buffet food was delicious, and after going around once, I was completely full and very satisfied, including the desserts. The hula on stage was wonderful, and the intensity of the fire dance was especially impressive. I felt that the power of the fire dance increased even more with multiple performers.

ビュッフェの料理はどれも美味しく、デザートも含め一周したらお腹いっぱいで大満足でした。
ステージのフラも素敵でとくにファイヤーダンスの迫力は凄かったです。複数人でのファイヤーダンスだとさらに迫力が増すなと感じました。

I think some people might worry about seasickness, but perhaps because I was enjoying the distant scenery, I was completely fine. The crew was friendly and kept us entertained.

船酔いを気にする方がいると思いますが、遠くの景色を楽しんでいたためか、私はまったく大丈夫でした。クルーもフレンドリーで楽しませてくれます。

The boat on the way there was quite rocky, but the submarine was steady and very beautiful. Since we went on the day of arrival, I got a bit sleepy along the way, but it was fun!

行きの船がかなり揺れたけど潜水艦は揺れもなくとても綺麗でした。到着日に行ったので途中眠くなったけど楽しかったです！

As expected from Cirque du Soleil, the content is impressive. I've seen several shows in Japan, but Auwana offers a different kind of emotion. The venue is more compact compared to those in Japan, allowing for a great view of the performers' expressions from the golden seats. Plus, the location in Waikiki is fantastic!

流石シルクドソレイユの内容です。
日本での公園は複数回みましたが、アウアナはまた違った感動があります。
会場は日本に比べてコンパクトなため、ゴールデンシートは演者さんの表情まで良くわかります。ワイキキ内のため立地も最高！

Delicious meals that make your taste buds dance.
People from various countries participate, and you can enjoy the buffet without any issues.
Both the meat and desserts were delicious!

美味しい食事に舌鼓。
色々な国の方が参加されますが、
問題なくビュッフェを堪能できます。
お肉もデザートも美味でした！

Since it was an early morning tour, I was able to participate at a 15% discount off the regular price. The equipment we used was so basic that there was some confusion among the Japanese participants, while the Filipino group, who were first, seemed unfazed by it.

I was able to overlook the deep blue ocean from directly above, which was a valuable experience. When surrounded only by the sea in a state of complete isolation, I felt a sense of tranquility and loneliness that was truly mystical. I was once again impressed by the power of nature.

We were blessed with clear weather, and it was a luxury to enjoy the view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the ocean.

朝一のツアーだったため、定価より15%オフで参加することができた。
乗る装置があまりにも簡易的過ぎて、同乗した日本人同士では戸惑いがあった笑　フィリピン人グループは一番目だったが、何も感じなかったっぽい笑

真っ青の海を真上から俯瞰することができ、貴重な体験だった。そして、いざ周りが何もない状態で海だけに囲まれたときに感じる静けさ・孤独感を味わうことができ、なんとも神秘的だった。改めて自然の強さに感銘を受けた。

快晴な天気に恵まれて、海からワイキキビーチ・ダイヤモンドヘッドを望むことができ贅沢だった。

I attended the show with my family of five, including my one-year-old grandchild. Fortunately, we were able to sit in the front row and fully enjoy the powerful stage performance. Even without understanding English, the atmosphere and the performance were more than enough. The excitement was so overwhelming that my grandchild's diaper was quite a mess, and I thought that once they are a bit older, I would like to take them again.

1歳の孫を含め、家族5名で観覧しました。
幸運なことに最前列に座ることができ、大迫力のステージを堪能することが出来ました。
英語がわからなくても、その雰囲気とパフォーマンスで十分でした。
あまりの迫力で孫のおむつが大変なことになっており、もう少し大きくなったら、再度、
連れて行ってあげようと思いました。

I just wanted a round trip, so I chose this option. I'm glad you took care of the entry procedures for me. I usually don't go mountain climbing, but I was able to reach the top relatively easily. If walking isn't a burden for you, I think you can climb without too much difficulty. The scenery was beautiful, and I'm glad I climbed. On the way back, since it was Saturday, I was dropped off at the KCC Market. Thank you for your accommodating service.

往復だけお願いしたくて、こちらにしました
入山の手続きもしておいていただき、よかったです
普段、山登りなどはしませんが、一番上までは、割と楽にいくことができました
歩くのが苦でなければ、割と無理なく登れると思います
景色は美しく、登ってよかったです
帰りに土曜日だったので、KCCマーケットでおろしていただきました　応用の対応もしていただき、ありがとうございました

In addition to traditional Hawaiian hula and Polynesian dance, the show beautifully blends performances by Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, creating a great balance of "culture + entertainment."

The fire dance in the latter half is particularly stunning and honestly the most exciting point of the show. The structure actively engages the audience, ensuring that everyone can enjoy it without getting bored until the very end.

Moreover, the venue is centrally located in Waikiki, making it easily accessible. The opportunity to take photos with the cast after the show adds to the overall satisfaction of the experience. It's impressive how the show is designed not just for viewing, but to create lasting memories.

ハワイ伝統のフラやポリネシアンダンスに加えて、エルビス・プレスリーやマイケル・ジャクソンのパフォーマンスが融合していて、「文化＋エンタメ」のバランスがかなり良いショーだった。

特に後半のファイヤーダンスは圧巻で、正直ここが一番テンション上がるポイント。
観客をしっかり巻き込む構成になっていて、飽きずに最後まで楽しめる。

また、会場がワイキキ中心でアクセスが良く、ショー後にキャストと写真が撮れるなど、体験としての満足度も高い。
単なる鑑賞ではなく「思い出として残る設計」がされているのが印象的。
