Oahu
What a beautiful way to see the different cultures of all the Pacific Islands. A wonderful Luau. Everything was well worth it.
Started with a very entertaining bus ride to the PCC!
Our tour of PCC was great because of the events including the boat parade and tasting food. But our guide Cousin Betty made the day special. Having Betty available to explain PCC to us was awesome and so is Betty!
Dinner was good we Loved the Coconut Balls.
Ha, Breath of Life performance was a perfect ending to our day at PCC.
If visiting Hawaii for the first time, this place is definitely a must-do! Very informative, FUN and a great all-day experience. Staff were very courteous, funny and food was quite delicious! I'd like to personally thank Manu, our tour instructor, as he knew all our names and stories by the end of the day, such a nice gentleman! You will leave this place wanting to visit other islands such as Tahiti, Samoa, and Fiji. You end your visit at the PCC with an awesome dance show, which is a must see! Overall had a really great time with my family.
Awesome Lei!!! My wife and daughter loved wearing them!! They were extremely beautiful!!!
Aloha Lorenzo,
Mahalo for your fabulous comment! I'm so happy that you and your family loved wearing the leis. That is the exact response we want to earn from you! Please have a safe trip in Hawaii and I hope you make some fabulous memories together!

Definitely worth doing. I would highly recommend doing this activity at the beginning of your trip as you would need more than one day to explore what it has to offer.
Was very skeptical at first but oh my was I wrong!!!! Circle tour was outstanding the cultural center was an eye opening extravaganza !! Wish there was more time
The Lei was beautiful! Lasted for days! I hung the Lei on our balcony! It looked lovely hanging.
Aloha Bridgett,
I love it that you enjoyed your lei so much! One of my leis I received last year is still hanging in my room as well! Take care and I wish you all the best.

The lie was beautiful and the greeter was very pleasant. I am glad I booked one.
P.S. I love this pic of your lei in the shape of a heart on your bed. Fantastic!! -Amy
I recently booked a Lei Greeting for my daughter and son-inlaw. They were so impressed with the service. The greeter was extremely friendly and went out her way to help with luggage and shuttle service. They also received many compliments on beauty and quality of their Leis from total strangers.
Aloha Stephanie,
Mahalo for the wonderful comment. I'm very happy to hear that they received such a pleasant experience from our leis!

Visited for first time. Upgraded to ambassador level and it was worth every penny. Would have missed so much without a guide. Can't see all in a day so we will return again in the future.
As this was my wife's first trip to Hawaii, we visited the center. I'd never been before either.
We both thoroughly enjoyed the day and our guide. We paid for the Ambassador level and it was worth every penny as you are guided through the center with a personal touch.
The center was very informative and the luau was very good.
We'll be returning again as there is so much to see and learn that it can't be covered in ine day, even with a guide.
Took the 1/2 day excursion but wish I had time to do the full day. There was such a strong feeling of joy and energy during all the performances. The imagine theater, the newest attraction was amazing. The Luau was great the the final performance was amazing, such talent and energy, no shows we saw on the cruise ship we were on could compare
Ordered the medium (forgot the correct term) upgrade lei for my mom and it was lovely and lush but too heavy for her tiny senior citizen body. I didn't think about it being heavy! She counted 250 blossoms. It was beautiful and impressive and got comments from locals so must have been special. The greeter offered to walk us to baggage claim but we declined and got lost. The order form said orchids or plumeria or mix and I wish we could've chosen plumeria but maybe they were out of season. I didn't think to tip the greeter until we walked away and lost her. Sorry!
Aloha!
Thank you for your great review! I agree, many people are surprised just how heavy a flower lei can be (especially when the order the deluxe size!) Nevertheless, I hope the both of you enjoyed your time here and made a lot of lasting memories!

excellent. Jason was amazing. His knowledge of the area extensive
My parents were suprised and had rave reviews to say about their Honolulu Airport Lei Greeting. They were so thankful for the help the greeting women provided at the airport. This was their first time taveling to Hawaii and they enjoyed Hawaii's true hospitality.
Thank you for your service!
Mahalo for your wonderful review! I will definitely let our greeters know what a great job they did for your parents. They will be happy to hear it! I hope their trip in Hawaii is the best and wish them an exciting exploration of our islands!
Much aloha,
Amy
Excellent experience! Very friendly greeter and beautiful leis!
Aloha Brenda!
Thank you for the wonderful comment. I'm glad your experience with our handmade leis and greeter went so well! Please take care and visit Hawaii again soon when you have the chance.

Food was good. Luau could have been better. Very friendly staff.
This was a waste of money. The only thing that Veltra did was make the reservation for the luau and the show. We arrived at the Polynesian cultural center expecting a tour. After a phone call, we realized we was on our own. We could have done it by ourselves.
We had a wonderful time there and very enjoy!!! Our tourguide and driver are very humor! Btw, the bus they provide was very great and comfortable!
“HA Breathe of Life” is the best luau on the island of Oahu. The dinner packages are fantastic you cannot go wrong with either dinner package. Polynesian Cultural Center is a fabulous place to learn about the different cultures that make up Polynesia. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone; you will have a great time.
We had a great time. This is well worth every penny it costs. We saw and learned so many great things. The luau was great, food was delicious. The Breath of Life play was the best I've ever seen, so high energy. If I ever get back to Hawaii again would definately do this again.
Was met by Awesome greeter who even helped us all the way to bag check. She was friendly and knowledgeable. The Leis were beautiful. Was a Nice Hawaiian Welcome!
Aloha Kat!
I'm so glad to hear that your greeter was so awesome! We always try to give each visitor to our islands a fantastic Hawaiian greeting! Thank you for the great comment and please visit us soon.

Too fast - need to slow down and spend more time on each area
I had a great experience!
During the bus drive to PCC there is a tour guide who is really good on entertaining the crowd while giving important information about Hawaii culture. As you arrive there you are greeted by the employees while checking-in.
After lunch (i've purchased a nice BBQ buffet) I started my tour, the guide was very friendly and took us to each village and we had the chance to participate of many cultural activities.
If you were not able to see all the presentations, don't worry, you can have a small demonstration of each Village during the Canoe Pageant.
If you have time, please check the Hawaiian Journey Theater, you will watch a beautiful movie about Hawaii. I was impressed by the size of the theater. There's also a Tram Tour around Laie town and you can visit the Temple.
By 5pm it starts the Dinner Luau. There is a lot of different options, and they were all delicious! After dinner there's the beautiful show "Ha: Breath of Life". It's a wonderful production!
We chose this place to learn about polynesian culture, place is adorable, great people around, nice dinner and fantastic show at the end of the day. We recommend it.have fun!
The cultural center and night show were awesome. The luau was amazing! Very memorable experience!
Great reception for our first time in Oahu. !!!!!!!!!! **********
Aloha Robert,
Glad to hear that your first time in Hawaii went so well! I hope you and your family had a great time and made a whole bunch of wonderful memories together! Take care!

The Polynesian center is a must see. The Luau was a bit disappointing in terms of the food selection and quantity. The evening show however was Outstanding!! I would recommend make this an all day event so as to explore the entire center.
Excellent centre, great way to learn about the Polynesian cultures and very entertaining.
wonderful tour had the greatest guide was able to see everything and had alot of good laughs was well worth having a tour guide
