The brochures for Germaine's Luau are very alluring. In it you read about the authentic luau in a beautiful setting "only 35 minutes away from Waikiki". What they don't tell you is that you wait on the bus in Waikiki for one hour before you even leave the hotel vicinity. Then you are riding very slowly through rush hour traffic... more

Went to Germaine's using the GoOahu Card -Drive to Germaine's is approximately 1.5hrs from Waikiki in traffic. -Location is in an industrial area, not the island resort feel I was expecting. -Make sure to bring the following: camera, camcorder, can get picture with the dancers after the show :). -Food is served buffet styles with table sections called up one... more

On Oct 17, 2009 my sisiter and I went to Germaine's Luau in Honolulu, Hawaii. Cousin Alika (our host) and Capt Spencer(our bus driver) were our special fellows . Alika had a knack of introducing everyone on the bus. Then he even went beyond that and offered to take photo's of us at the supper that night. Little did we... more

My husband and I had a great time at Germaine's Luau. Our guide, Cousin Aka made our night memorable with his stories. We got to learn Hawaiian on our way to the luau which made the 15 minute Hawaiian time pass so quickly. I would suggest you use your drink tickets as soon as you get to the venue as... more

Got a great rate from the military ticket and tours office. This luau, compared to Paradise Cove, isnt as cheesy. They still do authentic hula dances, not the "touristy" vision that the mainland has of hawaii. Its a smaller setting and therefore less people so you dont have to wait in line as long for dinner or drinks! Its picnic... more

The highlight of our evening was definitly when a van hit our tour bus (and didn't even stop) on the way to this winner of an event. They even had to pull over, unload all of us and inspect for damage. They drive you on a bus packed full of people to some wasteland in the middle of nowhere. And... more

I was skeptical when I read some of the reviews... especially b/c my husband is a Polynesian dancer himself, but we actually were really impressed with Germaine's. The food was good, bus ride entertaining, and the show was great... audience participation was funny and well planned out and the performers' did the dances from the different Polynesian cultures very well... more

We attended Germaine's Luau on August 20 and we were impressed with the show, however the hawaiiain names that our bus guide gave for the food that was to be served raised our expectations about the meal we were going to eat. In reality we were faced with coleslaw, three bean salad, pasta salad, fried chicken and meat which resulted... more

From the minute we stepped on the tour bus this night was terrible! Georgie our tour guide would not stop talking. Making us talk and touch other guests on the bus proved to be extremely uncomfortable for many. We were one of the last buses to arrive and we had seats so far away that we could hardly see the... more
