All Reviews for Hawaiian Cultural Activities

In the morning, I was guided to the main tourist spots in Oahu and enjoyed the breathtaking views. The Dole pineapple soft serve was also very delicious.

In the afternoon, we had lunch at the Polynesian Cultural Center. It was a buffet, but the taste was... well, it was just something to fill the stomach. After lunch, we toured the center with a Japanese guide, but the breaks were short, and there were few shaded areas and benches, so families with small children should be cautious. I was really thirsty.

However, I thought it was great to experience various attractions like making Hawaiian leis and riding a canoe. For dinner, the buffet had more variety and tasted a bit better than lunch. We moved to the show venue and were impressed by the performance, which exceeded our expectations. I didn't understand any English, but I could somewhat grasp the story. The final fire show is a must-see.

After that, we returned to Waikiki by bus, arriving after 10 PM. For those visiting Waikiki for the first time, this might be a tour worth participating in.

午前中はオアフの主要観光スポットを案内してもらい絶景を楽しむ事ができました。
ドールのパイナップルソフトもとても美味しかったです。
そして午後はポリネシア文化センターにてまず昼食。
ビュッフェ形式ですが、味は？？？取りあえずお腹に入れるという感じです。
ランチ後センター内を日本語ガイドと共に回るのですが
休憩も短く、日陰やベンチが少ないので小さい子供さん連れはご注意を。
とにかく喉が渇きました。
ただ、ハワイアンローズを作成したり、カヌーに乗ったりと
いろいろなアトラクションを経験出来たのは良かったと思います。
そして夕飯のビュッフェ。昼よりは種類も多く味も少し良かったかも。
ショー施設に移動し噂以上のパフォーマンスに感激。
英語が全く分かりませんでしたがストーリーはなんとなくわかりました。
最後のファイアーショーは必見。
その後再びバスにてワイキキへ戻ります。
帰りは２２時過ぎでした。ワイキキが初めての方には一度は参加してもいいツアーかもしれません。

This is a family friendly and education show. The host are really funny and great sense of humor. The interactive programs and the shows are awesome! We will be back again

The Polynesian tour was great. This was our 2nd time going, but our grandson's first. He had a great time. We also upgrade with tour and our guide was fabulous,he knew his history of the islands. The luau and the food was good, we didn't try any poa. The students there serving were very helpful and good service. The best of all was the night show, loved it. Bus was on time. Our tour guide made it interesting on our way to the Polynesian Cultural center. Great tour to take. Though it was a long day, it's worth it.

Disappointed in our seats for the night show. We booked this so far in advanced and got lousy seats.

The rest of the facility was nice.

The young lady that delivered the leis met us as we exited the plane and arrived in the terminal. She was very friendly and offered to take our picture. The leis themselves were large, full leis that were very pretty. (A little heavy, due to the size.) Definitely worth it for my wife, who has put up with me for 20 years of marriage!

The leis were beautiful and lasted until we came home

Both the half-day tour and the Polynesian Cultural Center were enjoyable and packed with activities (^_^)v. The night show was wonderful, and the final fire performance was amazing. The guide was great, and I had a full day of fun. Considering the differences in dinner options, the seating for the show, and the backstage tour, I think it was worth it to go deluxe.

半日観光とポリネシア文化センターどちらも楽しく盛りだくさん(^_^)v
ナイトショーも素敵でした。最後のファイヤーパフォーマンスは凄かったです。
ガイドの方も良かったですし、一日たっぷり楽しめました。
夕食内容の違いとショーの席の場所、バックヤード見学を含めるとデラックスにしてよかったと思いました。

We were in Hawaii for our 20th Anniversary and attended Luaus and Dinner Cruises. The PCC had a better dinner than either of the others and my wife loved the show! I visited for the first time 30 years ago, enjoyed it then and will definitely be back. Best experience for the money without a doubt!

Very wonderful experience. Took full advantage of the different villages. Timeline makes it so you don't have to wait long between performances. Employees gladly and excitably answer questions. Wonderful event for families.

was great with all the activities. lots of memory

We had a wonderful fun time. We would love to do it again. I was not overly impressed with the food at the Polynesian Cultural Center though.

Wonderful add on to our trip!! My hubby's first time to Hawaii, wanted to give him the old time feel. It was great!!

A great excursion from the bustle of Waikiki. There was so much to see and do for everyone in the family including our 3 year old. Well done Polynesian Cultural Center we will definitely book this again when we return to Honolulu.

Was looked after from the moment we walked on board bus with great commentary. Got to see and feel the great islands. When visiting Oahu would recommend highly as a must see.

Very interesting and enjoyable day, with a lovely lunch. The Breath of Life show was absolutely amazing and I would recommend it to anyone travelling to Honolulu.

Very friendly greeting, after a long flight was a great pick me up for my wife! our greeter walked us to our connecting flight to make sure we got to the right spot for the next flight and was very friendly and informative. Very nice way to start our vacation!

Be prepared for a long day. Did not get back to hotel until 11pm. Night show was excellent and luau was fun. The food at the luau was a bit disappointing.

Had a fantastic day and our driver / guide (Jason) was very informative, funny and had an excellent knowledge of the islands history and culture. As a first time visitor to the islands, I would highly recommend this excursion especially the Polynesian
cultural centre as the 'Ha' breath of life show is out of this world and should not be missed !!!!!

We had a fantastic time at this activity. We would encourage anyone attending for the first time to spend the extra on the ambassador package. There is so much to see and there is now way to get it all in one day and the tour guide will make sure you get to participate in all the live shows they put on there as well as re-entry into the park for another day to see everything else. It is a family friendly environment with the no alcohol on the premises and operated almost entirely by university students from the polynesian islands, so you can get a real feel for the many different cultures and peoples represented. overall it was awesome and well worth the time and money.

This tour should be experienced by all who visit the Hawaiian Islands. We attended this tour because my parents who travelled with us had participated in it 20 years ago said it was a must see. I knew very little about the Polynesian Culture before attending and the by the time it was over, my family and I were in awh of this culture. We attended with our two children ages 12&14 and they also loved it. Learning about the other countries who are part of the polynesian culture had us asking questions at every turn, participating in some of the games they play on the different islands had us all with smiles not to mention the wonderful show at days end. We paid for the Super Ambassador Package, yes a more costly package but WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!! You will learn much more about this amazing culture and the many islands by having your own guide. Our guide's name was Sepa, a truly amazing and inspiring young lady from the Islands of Tonga. Not only did we experience many of the polynesian islands while at the PCC but through Sepa we were able to learn from someone personally who lived as this tour depicts. We will always have fond memories of our time spent at the PCC as well as our time with Sepa.

The show and grounds were very good but the food was just so- so. Only had a few dishes to choose from, the only good thing was the pork.

We got picked up from the hotel at 10am and brought to the cultural center where we were asked to pay $25 for the tour guide and lunch. we didn't feel like having such a big lunch so we did not take the offer. There were too many people and we hardly see anything. The Luau was so so and the line was too long. We rather spend the quality time near the beach sipping some cold beer.

Fun Times had by all. The only hiccup was when my card got 'frozen' because their machine was dirty. Tour guide with Ben was awesome! Very knowledgeable and made tons of suggestions of things to do after the tour. Definitely would recommend again... if only for the show in the evening.

My husband, son and I had a great time. We got there at noon and did the whole day including luau and show. We went thru every village and watched all the dances and there village life. So beautiful and full of pride. The luau was very good along with the entertainment but the show, Ha The Breath of Life, was the best. I suggest to all who visit not to miss the show!

Amazing experience! Loved the show. Tour with Ben was awesome! Upgraded our Ha tickets for free due to issues with credit cards. Picked up and dropped off from our hotel for a nominal fee.

The circle island tour seemed rushed and we didn't stop anywhere once we passed the Dole Plantation. We basically cruised passed all the beaches on the north shore. Diamondhead was looked at from the front side but nothing was really brought up about it. The things we saw were nice but I wish we would have had more time exploring them. Once we got to the PCC this were great. The performers were top notch and the show was very educational and entertaining. The food was excellent and non-stop. The half day at the PCC was more than enough to see everything I wanted to see. Once the tour guide picked us up, we heard a little too much about his personal life for the hour plus ride home. My recommendation is if you want to see the entire island for a tour, don't include the PCC as a stop and just do it on another day.

Our family of 7 attended the Polynesian cultural center luau and night show. Got great prices and was easy to book on my phone.

when we stepped off the plane and walked about 100 ft there was a young girl standing there with a placard and my name was on it smiling. She put them on and said aloha! very friendly!!

Had a wonderful time at the Hyatt Luau - great food, drinks, and entertainment.
