First Timers...so worth it!!!
Posted on: 2008/01/22

It was my mother's, dad's and aunt's first time to Hawaii, so I orderd Lei's for all of us (7 all together). Everyone was so surprised and pleased and I saw a tear in their eyes..! Their reactions and smiles were so worth the price. If it is your first time to Hawaiii, a Lei is a most!!! Our flight was 2 hours late, but the greeter was there when we were!!!!

ポリネシア カルチャー センター ハワイ最大の伝統ルアウショー!ショーのみまたはビュッフェ・ディナー付きから選べるプラン<送迎付きプランあり>
I was first amazed by the grandeur of the stage decoration.
ステージ・デコレーションの壮大さにまず驚かされる
Posted on: 2008/01/15

The buffet-style dinner was fairly satisfying, but due to the large number of participants, popular ingredients quickly ran out.
I saw the show several times, and it was wonderful, incomparable to any hula dance show. The grand stage decorations were utilized to the fullest, and the quality of the dancers was quite high. The use of fire was magical, making for a delightful and satisfying experience.

 バイキング方式のディナーはまずまず満足のいく内容ですが、参加人数の多いことから人気のある食材から直ぐに無くなってしまいました。
 ショーは数回見た、どのフラダンスショーとは比較にならない素晴しいものでした。壮大なステージのデコレーションを最大限に生かしきっており、ダンサーの質も大分高いメンバーが揃っており、炎の使い方が幻想的で堪能と満足のひと時でした。

The night show was wonderful.
素晴らしかったナイトショー
Posted on: 2008/01/14

This was my first trip to Hawaii. Since my elderly parents were accompanying me, we focused on sightseeing. This time, we signed up for the Deluxe Course at the Polynesian Cultural Center. The bus arrived on time at the hotel pickup location, and a Japanese exchange student kindly explained the day's schedule during the ride. Upon arriving at the Polynesian Cultural Center and moving to the entrance, we were introduced to the day's agenda and our guide (the Japanese exchange student), and we toured in groups.

It seems that the tour routes differ depending on the guide, but our guide provided interpretation near our group for each show, which seemed to satisfy my elderly parents.

The dinner buffet also had a wide variety of options and was very delicious.

The final Horizon Night Show was simply amazing; I think it was the best show I saw in Hawaii. I would like to participate again the next time I come to Hawaii.

 初めてのハワイ旅行。年配の両親も同行だったので、観光重視にしました。今回、ポリネシア文化センターデラックスコースに申し込みました。ホテルのピックアップ場所に時間通りにバスが到着し、日本人留学生が車中で一日の予定を丁寧に説明してくれました。ポリネシア文化センターに到着し入り口に移動すると、今日の予定と担当者(日本人留学生)の紹介があり、グループごとに見学しました。
 担当者により見学コースは違う様ですが、私達の担当者はそれぞれのショーごとにグループの近くで通訳をしてくれ、年配の両親も満足してくれた様でした。
 夕食のバイキングも種類が豊富で、とても美味しかったです。
 最後のホライズン・ナイトショーは、素晴らしいの一言で、ハワイで見たショーの中で一番素晴らしかったと思います。
 次回、ハワイに来たときにも参加したいと思います。

Makani Catamaran Waikiki Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Drinks & Transportation
Great Trip
Posted on: 2008/01/14

Was an excellent sail watching the lights of Honolulu and the fireworks - it's beautiful and I recommend it to any couple.

Only bad points were that they could provide a little more food for everyone and they missed us for pickup even though we were waiting at the designated spot well before the specified time but with many other tours departing that spot it can get hard to find people I guess.

Thanks guys!

Enjoyed the day. Our tour guide was Paina and he was great. Informative and helpful. The luau is pretty standard fair but loved the evening show. The shows on the various "islands" were fun also.

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour
Posted on: 2008/01/10

This is a must see for anyone visiting the island of Oahu! The Luau is a feast and the Horizons show is a spectacular way to end the evening. I would suggest that those planning their itinerary, schedule this event on their last night in Hawaii, so as to end with a bang.
Also, those traveling with children will find the tour of the different villages to be extremely educational.
Remember to bring extra cash for browsing the gift shops, tipping your servers, and just in case you want to purchase that DVD recording of the Horizons show to give the folks back home a taste of the whole fantastic experience!

Truly moving!
本当に感動!
Posted on: 2008/01/08

We participated as three couples, including my eldest daughter and her husband, to celebrate my wife's retirement and my youngest daughter's marriage. Since it was our first time, we chose the most luxurious course, and the guide Yuki, who is from Okinawa, was wonderful, as were the performances from each village (island). Occasionally having a dinner without alcohol was quite nice as well.

The highlight was the Horizons show. Everyone was moved by it. Since returning home, we have been enjoying the DVD and CD we received as gifts. Next time we participate, I might challenge myself to try the workshop course.

 家内の退職記念と下の娘の入籍祝いを兼ねて、長女夫妻を含めた3カップルの6名で参加。
 初めてなので一番贅沢な?コースを選択したのですが、案内してくれた沖縄出身のyukiさんのガイドも、それぞれの村(島)でのパフォーマンスも素晴らしい。たまにはアルコール抜きのデイナーもなかなかのもの。
 そして圧巻はHorizonsショー。全員で感動していました。
 帰国してからも、プレゼントされたDVDyaCDを愉しんでいます。
 また参加するときは、ワークショップのコースにチャレンジしてみようかな。

サンセットセーリング ホロカイ・カタマラン号 オープンバーでの飲み放題付き!金曜日は大人限定でゆったりクルーズ<ワイキキ発>
You can still enjoy it even when it's cloudy.
曇りでも楽しめます
Posted on: 2008/01/01

I participated on the day I arrived in Hawaii, but unfortunately, it was a cloudy day, which made me quite down. However, once we cut the engine and started sailing, I felt the pleasant breeze while swaying with the waves, and my mood lifted.

After sunset, you can enjoy the night view of Waikiki from the sea. Watching Diamond Head as it darkens and the lights of the hotel district floating in the night sky was moving, especially since I wasn't expecting it!

There were about 40 participants, and I was the only Japanese person. There were parts of the announcements with jokes in English that I couldn't follow, but the staff were friendly and reached out to me, which left a good impression. Even if you don't understand English, it won't be a big problem, and it's perfectly fine to just relax while enjoying free drinks, so I think anyone can have a good time in any situation.

ハワイ到着日に参加しましたが、あいにくの曇り空でかなり気落ちしていました。ところが動力を切って帆走を始めると、波に揺れながら気持ちよい風を受けて気分も盛り上がってきました。

そして日が暮れてからは、ワイキキの夜景を海側から楽しむことができます。ダイヤモンドヘッドが暮れてゆく様子や、ホテル街のライトが夜空に浮かぶ光景は、期待していなかっただけに感動的でした!

40名ほどの参加者で日本人は僕だけでした。英語でのジョークまじりのアナウンスについていけない部分もありましたが、スタッフも声をかけてくれたりと印象はよかったです。英語がわからなくても大きな支障はないし、フリーのお酒を飲みながらただぼんやりしているだけでもOKなので、どんなシチュエーションでも楽しめると思います。

Fun @ the Polynisian Cuktural Ctr.
Posted on: 2007/12/31

My husband and I spent the day at the Cultural Ctr. the day after Christmas. Our tour escort "Cousin Will" picked us up at our hotel and guided us through the various villages throughout the day. It was an educational day and a lot of fun as well. We learned so much about the different cultures, their language, their dance and their stories. The luau was fun and tasty. The Horizon's show was a spectacular finale of the day, the best show on the island of Oahu. I would recommend this experience for any first timers to the islands of Hawaii. And it's true that you can't see everything in one day. I wish we could have stayed longer. Enjoy!

Hawaii Rookies
Posted on: 2007/12/27

What a fantastic all-day affair!! The frequent "say aloha" prompts from the tour guides was a bit much and got old, but the actual activity was a fabulous and impressive one. We hope to return to Hawaii someday and will repeat this one. Do be aware that they charge extra for a tour guide, but it is worth it for the first time.

I recommend Samoa Village.
サモア村お勧めです。
Posted on: 2007/12/21

I participated when I took my parents to Hawaii for the first time. Of course, the night show "Horizons" was amazing, but the most fun for our family was especially in the Samoa Village, with the fire-starting demonstration and coconut cracking, and the chant of "Stone coconut, stone coconut, stone..." still brings back joyful memories for my parents. We laugh every time we watch the video. It's a classic in Hawaii, and I recommend participating at least once! We could have driven there ourselves, but driving at night with jet lag can be dangerous, so joining the tour was a safe choice.

父母を初めてハワイに連れていった時に参加しました。もちろん
夜のショー「ホライズン」もすごいですが・・・私達の家族の中で、一番楽しかったのは、特にサモア村で、火おこしの実演やココナッツ割りや火起こしでの『石 椰子 石 椰子 石・・・・』は今でも父母の楽しかった思い出のようで・・・
ビデオを見ては笑ってしまいます。ハワイの定番ですが、一度は参加!!お勧めです。自分達で、車でも行けますが、、時差ボケでの夜の運転は危ないので、OPツアー参加は安心して行けました。

Fun!
Posted on: 2007/12/10

My favorite part of the experience was seeing the Samoan fire dancer at the end of the evening show, "Horizons". It was a beautiful, exciting and fun performance! He was also doing a cooking demonstration earlier that day at the Samoan camp. He was funny, charming, and kept us smiling. You can tell that he really loves what he does. I also loved how everyone who worked at the park seemed excited to share their culture.

Having made all the arrangements online, I was a bit nervous because this was my wife's 50th birthday celebration and we had 23 family members in attendance. The boat, food, service and ambiance were beyond my expectations! I would highly recommend this Sunset Dinner Cruise.

Great job to all those at Hawaiian Activities that had anything to do with helping me to put on such a great celebration for my wife and family.

Best regards!
