Chiefs Luau is the big-production end of the Oahu luau spectrum — a three-hour evening anchored by an all-you-can-eat Hawaiian buffet and a large-cast Polynesian show. Its ticket menu is the widest on the island: three experience levels (Aloha, Paradise, Royal), each sold in a self-drive version and a transportation-included version, six options in all.

WHICH OPTION SHOULD YOU BOOK?
Two decisions, in order. First, experience level: Aloha (from $152.64) is the entry tier with full buffet and show; Paradise (from $192.92) upgrades seating placement; Royal (from $244.86) is front-and-center with the top extras. Second, transport: the transportation-included version costs about $36 more per adult at every level — cheaper than round-trip rideshare to the west side for one or two people, more expensive than splitting a rental car four ways.
