Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show

Great time

Reviewed by: Montreal couple

We would recommend the Polynesian cultural center for many reasons. The staff are very welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable. It was great fun to be so immersed in the cultures presented...dancing in Tahiti, singing and playing music in Fiji to name just a couple. The luau was a great opportunity to see the many different forms of hula dancing, and the food was great and plentiful.
In short, the Polynesian Cultural Center should not be missed!

Dinner cud hv been Authentic...

Reviewed by: GeeKay

I think overall the package was the best and most unique experience I have ever enjoyed but I think the Dinner timings werent quite right and could be delayed a bit and also the staff were kinda urgent towards the end of buffet timings that we really couldnt enjoy the Dinner all the way till dessert. That kinda impacted me not to give 5 Star for it. And believe me you need the whole full day to cover PCC and half day wont do justice for this unique experience.

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

Paradise Cove Luau - July 2010

Reviewed by: RC

As a first time visitor to Hawaii ,I was not sure what to expect from a Luau. The Luau actually begins on the bus ride to Paradise Cove. We were greeted, welcomed and entertained by our host, "Cousin Bronson." He told funny stories and jokes and explained what to expect before we arrived to our destination. This made everyone feel "connected" and a part of the "family."

Paradise Cove Luau was enjoyable and it was a great experience for all of us. The Paradise Cove entertainers were very well trained and showed a great deal of confidence and expertise in their skills and their dances. Afterwards, they were available for pictures and autographs. Paradise Cove is a wonderful setting for a luau. Very beautiful location for the setting sun pictures.

The trip back to our hotel was another entertaining ride with more stories and jokes from Bronson. I would recommend Paradise Cove Luau to anyone. Great job!

We had a good time, only downside is there isnt enough water fountains around the center because it got really hot.Dinner was really good except we didnt get to see the pig come out of the oven. the Night show was good. I probably wont come back here next time I visit hawaii. It seemed kinda too touristy.

A full day of entertainment

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

A long day, but well worth it! Even the bus ride was good. This was the best luau experience we had, easily beating out the one offered by NCL on Kaua'i, which was very good. It was a hot day, and the line for shaved ice was long, but that is the only negative. All of the cultural shows we saw were excellent and there were even pre-shows for those who arrived early. The food was good (along with another show), and the main show at the end (Ha, Breath of Life) was outstanding.
If you are looking for an intimate on-the-beach luau, this is not it. The PCC provides a first-rate experience for thousands of people, and does so with minimal delays and great views from any seating location. I am so glad we went. This was one of the highlights of our entire trip.

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

nice experience

Reviewed by: jeannette

Going to a luau is something everyone should do at least once. Paradise cove is beautiful and the staff very friendly. The "games" are not impressive, but give you something to do. The show is good. The food is good but not labeled, so try everything. Did not like most of the native dishes, but the pork and chicken were excellent. The drinks are poured in front of you, shots measured and often generous. Unless you are a drinker, I would not say they are watered down. You can purchase bigger, "better" drinks as well. (i didn't need to.) Had the standard package and would not bother with more expensive packages, seats are all good and buffet lines move quickly and plenty of food. Bring small bills for tips. I would recommend this activity to family and friends. Some small children there, ok for kids.

One thing that I was told by anyone who visited your island was to attend a Luau. After reading reviews on websites, I chose the Paradise Cove experience. I am very glad I did. My two year old granddaughter enjoyed the activities and dancing as much as my 70 year old mother. If you leave this experience hungry, you have no one to blame but yourself. The ocean view was gorgeous and the sunset that night was breathtaking. Thank You!!!

伝統ルアウ＆ハワイアンショー「パラダイス・コーブ 」開放的なオーシャンフロントで本場の雰囲気を味わえるショーやサンセット鑑賞＜現地集合可／コオリナ・リゾート内＞

It was impressive. 迫力ありました。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I requested a course with transportation, and as everyone has mentioned, the bus was mostly filled with foreigners, and the announcements were only in English.

The show was indeed impressive. I ordered the deluxe option, but the seats were not towards the front; instead, we were at the very back on a higher tier. It started to rain during the show, but there was a roof over that area, so I was glad to be seated there.

The people I went with were happy to see an authentic luau show. However, they mentioned that it would have been more enjoyable if they understood English.

The food was delicious. They brought various dishes in order, and although it wasn't a buffet, the portions were more than enough to fill us up. The four drink tickets we received ended up going unused, which was a shame.

送迎付のコースを頼みましたが、皆さんが書かれている通りバスの中はほとんど外国人で、案内も英語だけでした。

ショーはさすがに迫力がありました。
デラックスで頼みましたが、席は前のほうではなく一番後ろの一段高いところでした。
途中で雨が降ってきましたが、そこには屋根がありましたので、そちらの席でよかったです。

一緒に行った人達は、本場のルアウショーが見れて良かった。
でも、英語がわからないので、わかるともっと楽しかったかな。
と言っていました。

ご飯は美味しかったです。
順番に色々持ってきていただいて、ビュッフェではなかったのですが、量は食べきれないぐらいでした。
4枚ついていたドリンクチケットはやはり飲みきれずに余ってしまい、もったいなかったです。

I wondered if it could be done with a shorter wait time.

伝統ルアウ＆ハワイアンショー「パラダイス・コーブ 」開放的なオーシャンフロントで本場の雰囲気を味わえるショーやサンセット鑑賞＜現地集合可／コオリナ・リゾート内＞

The best entertainment. 最高のエンターテイメント

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated in this tour to entertain my family. As many others have written, there are extremely few Japanese participants. Therefore, I think it's best to join with the understanding that Japanese will not be understood at all, including during bus transfers. However, if you have a certain level of listening skills and can convey your intentions with basic vocabulary, you can enjoy it fully.

While waiting for the show to start, the activities of making leis and haku leis were enjoyable enough to make me forget that I was Japanese.

The luau begins with the sunset, and from there, it's a series of surprises. Traditional Hawaiian performances, including hula, as well as dances from Polynesia and Tahiti. And the most exciting part was the fire dance.

Regarding the food, since it's not a high-end dinner, you shouldn't have too many expectations, but the fried chicken was incredibly delicious.

The family I brought along all had a great time. Since we came to a foreign land, I think it's perfectly fine to enjoy ourselves to the fullest in an environment with few Japanese tourists.

On windy days, it gets chilly at night, and the air conditioning on the bus is quite strong, so it's essential to have something to wear on top.

今回、ファミリーをもてなすためにこのツアーに参加しました。
色々な方が書いていた通り、日本人の参加者は極端に少ないです。ゆえにバスでの移動を含め現地でも日本語は全く通じないという認識で参加する方が良いと思います。
ただし、ある程度のヒアリングと片言でも自分の意思を伝えられるだけの単語力があれば十分に楽しめます。

ショーが始まるまでの間の、レイを作ったり、ハクレイを作ったりするコーナーも、自分が日本人である事を忘れて楽しめるものでした。

サンセットと共にルアウが始まるのですが、もうそこからは驚きの連続。
フラをはじめとした、ハワイの伝統芸能やポリネシアやタヒチの踊り。
そして、一番盛り上がったファイアーダンス。

食事については、高級ディナーとは違うので、あまり期待するべきではありませんが、フライドチキンは最高に美味しかったです。

連れていったファミリーはみんな楽しんでくれました。
折角異国の地に来んだから、日本人観光客の少ない環境でめいっぱい楽しんでしまうのも有りだと思います。

風がある日だと、夜は冷え込むし、移動のバス内のエアコンがかなり利いているので、上に羽織るものは必須です。

Wonderful Experience!!

Reviewed by: Kristi

I recently visited Oahu for the 2nd time. My first luau experience in 2003 was with Germaine's Luau. That was very fun, but I felt it was too "touristy".

So on my recent trip to Oahu to visit a friend, we decided to try the luau at the Polynesian Cultural Center. I am sooo glad that we did. The whole experience was amazing. We did the half day late entry package (upgraded to Ambassador). There is so much to see and learn about the Polynesian Islands and cultures. The dinner was seriously the best food, along with real students at the PCC performing a show during the dinner.

Then the "Ha! Breath of Life" show after dinner was so incredible. The story was great and the performances from all the different polynesian cultures were so wonderful. I cannot stress enough how much I am reccommending you visit the Polynesian Cultural Center and take in everything you can while you are there.

You should go! 行くべし！

Reviewed by: rayray

The bus ride from Waikiki to the venue was entertaining. During the journey, there was a brief explanation of the activities at the venue. Unfortunately, Japanese language support is not to be expected. There was a slight issue upon entry, but when I communicated my concerns to the bus staff, they responded immediately. I was able to interact with other participants and even experience hula dancing on stage (for those who wished to participate), which became a wonderful memory. The food was not just "something basic," but rather delicious. I think it would be nice to be able to give a tip smoothly when getting off the bus on the way back (though it is not required, it's a nice gesture).

ワイキキから会場へ向かうバスの中から、エンターテイメントでした。移動中、会場での行動説明が軽くありました。
残念ながら、日本語は期待できません。
入場時に少々のトラブルがありましたが、バスの担当の方に困っている旨を伝えると、すぐに対応してくれました。
他の参加者とも交流できたり、（希望者参加の）ステージでのフラダンスを体験したり、いい思い出になりました。
お料理も「こんな程度のもの」ではなく、美味しいものでした。
帰りのバスの降りがけにスマートにチップを渡せるといいと思います（要求はされませんが気持ちで）。

I thought I was able to see a very high-quality hula dance. However, since the entire performance was in English, I was left confused, caught up in the excitement around me. I think it would be a very enjoyable tour for those who are fluent in English.

However, the process of receiving drinks and food turned into a long line, which took up a lot of time. It was a very disappointing situation.

とっても質の高いフラダンスを見れたと思いました。
けれど、全てが英語のみのパフォーマンスだったので、何がなんだかわからないまま周りの熱気に当てられてました。
英語が堪能な人ならとっても楽しめるツアーだと思いました。

I asked my kids which activity was their favorite and they agreed that, other than surfing, this was it. The bus trip to the cove was hysterical, our guide was so wonderfully engaging and entertaining. I never thought that listening to people singing Old Macdonalds Farm could be so funny. The activities were great and the sun setting into the cove at the perfect time was idyllic. A great day.
