All Reviews for Hawaiian Cultural Activities

My family and I absolutely loved visiting the Polynesian Cultural Center while in Oahu. I highly recommend spending the extra money and getting the Ambassador All day package. You will get a very personal tour guide (we had Diliana and she was awesome!) of all the Polynesian villages. My husband gets bored pretty easily and not ONCE did he get restless during the entire day. You are kept well entertained and learn a lot about the Polynesian cultures. The luau and the food was great, and the Night Show was fantastic! Very high energy and entertaining. I highly recommend visiting the PCC !

It was nice to be greeted by a smiling face and fresh lei's after a 12 hour flight. Our greeter was very nice and took us to the baggage claim. However, we had another group that did not receive their greeting (not sure what company they booked it through) and they were disappointed.

We loved going to the Polynesian Cultural Center. Our guide "Cousin Gumbo" was very personable and informative. The day started very nice but we did have rain showers. We didn't let that stop us from enjoying everything. We didn't get to go on the canoe ride because of the rain. Next time maybe we will be able to.
We did do fun activities and learned about the different islands and cultures. The luau was very nice and we enjoyed the different foods. The show was fantastic. We do plan to go again and visit area's of the center we didn't get to see. Would recommend for all ages.

This was a wonderful greeting for our sisters vacation to Kauai. Our greeter Leilani was wonderful. She met us at our gate in Honolulu with a cheery Aloha greeting and beautiful flower leis. She showed us the garden area and took pictures for us. She also escorted us to our connecting flight. This gave us a great start to a terrific Hawaiian vacation.
Thank you Leilani and Honolulu Lei Geetings.

The lei greeter that we got was really nice and treated us well. Even my wife (who I surprised with this) liked it.
She sent us to the shuttle that would take us to our rented car and answered any questions we wanted to ask. I would recommend this to anyone!

Didn't get the name of our delivery girl, but after we received our lei, she helped us out by taking us directly to the busses that would take us to our airport.

I've since found that there are several other services like this, and dozens of shops near China Town, but in the end, I still felt this was the best value overall for what we received as a bonus; the assitance.

The show was great and we enjoyed it very much. The rest of the experience was so-so. Our driver was 30 min. late and we were rushed into the park with most of the villages already closed for the day. The dinner was again rushed and we were seated during the end of the show which appeared to have been great. The little we saw of it was really funny. The food left a bit to be desired. But then we went to the Horizon show and it was awesome. I guess when you go to the half day show you're really just getting the great evening show. Next time I'll know to go to some other luau and go to the cultural center during the day to really see what's there. Feel like we missed a lot.

Loved the greeting and the cheerful attitude of the greeter. Was a perfect end to a long boring flight.

Highly enjoyable and better than expected! I hope to return again someday for the fun and education!

I surprised my husband's first visit to Hawaii with a lei greeting . . . how can you go and not have a lei greeting anyway? They were right there when we arrived, escorted us to baggage claim and then contacted and escorted us to our shuttle which we had not expected. That was great since we were not sure where and how far we had to go to get our luggage, etc. I would highly recommend Hawaii Activities to everyone and would probably contact them again for my next visit.

Nice way to start your Hawaiian vacation

The staff was very close by with the most beautiful leis I have ever seen. They smelled so wonderful and made us feel so special especially since it was our 1st time to hawaii as well as our Honeymoon!! WE LOVED IT!!

I wanted a traditional Hawaiian greeting for my wife and friends when they arrived. It was absolutely great. It could not have started her vacation to the islands after a long flight onj a better note. She has been wearing the Lei everywhere she goes.

This is one of the few activities that we would do over again. Overall it was a great experience with very nice people and great exposure to all of the Hawaiian cultures. Very interesting and entertaining. A must!!

The location is very clean and organized. We returned to the Polynesian Culter Center because of the fun and knowledge we came away with in our first trip there in 2006. We didn't get to view the complete park our first time do to its size. The weather was a chanllege this time and we saw less of the activites than before. Our tour guide was not up to all the knowledge needed to lead our group, she had been only a tour guide for three weeks. For the price and knowledge you wanted to gather fell far short.

The luau dinner was great and the final show was also a great performance! The effort the culter center puts out to make you feel at home, I would recommended it to anyone.

I was so thrilled to see our greeter with our names on a card after we arrived five hours late. I was so sure no one would show up at 8:30 p.m. when we were supposed to arrive at 2:17. It was the first time my husband ever got leid! Thank you!

Very interesting learning abouth the other islands. Everyone should make a trip there. Great food at the luau. Great Horizon night show.

Excellent tour guide. Made trip enjoyable and informative while being very helpful.
The PCC itself was very educational with presentations and shows excellent. Not really a luau, but more of a buffet. Food was just OK, with some things excellent and others not so good.

It was fine. I did this for my sister and her boyfriend when they came with us because it was their first time in Hawaii. I would have preferred for the greeter to be a Hawaian but she was not.

Our greeter did a fantastic job, extremely friendly and set the tone for our vacation. Good way to start off!!

This was our first time and we really had a good time, the last show was great, the only thing we were not real fond of was the luau dinner, very simple and I wanted to really see how the pig was cooked in the sand. Dinner was not very good. The people there were very very nice to work with. Our driver Chris was also very nice and gave us a lot of information while on the drive.

Would recommend this tour to everyone we had a ball of a time a special thanks to Cousin Leon for making our day special.

Lei Greeting was a big hit Thanks

I was VERY impressed with our tour to the Polynesian Cultural Center. From the pick up in Waikiki, lunch, tour of the 5 island groups, dinner, the evening show and the return to Waikiki, all was done perfectly. This tour is definitely a MUST to learn more about the Polynesian Culture!!!

This was our second time to the Polynesian Cultural Center, and we still found it highly entertaining and informative.

The lei greeting is an unforgettable experience. It is such a special welcome and very worth the cost. Our greeter was very helpful!

Our greeter was there waiting for us as we exited the plane. She was extremely friendly and helpful. Thanks!!!

Great time had by all. Tour guide Milo was terrific and upbeat. Very knowledgeable about the Islands and cultures. Food was delicious and thank goodness for the children's buffet since we were with a very picky eater. Thank you for a great memory.

too many tour groups
