Very organized from the minute you step on the bus..lots of activities offered, delicious meal and good entertainment! Beautiful sunset on the west side of the island.. Well worth the $ spent:)

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show & Dinner Buffet with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing

What an Awesome Show.

Reviewed by: kevin gaines

Chief's Luau at Sea Life Park was definitely one of the highlights of my tour's while visiting Honolulu! The staff from beginning to end was just great. Chief was an incredible man and host and the music, the dancing, the ladies just made the evening something to never forget! The setting at Sea Life Park was great. You look in one direction you see the ocean, and another direction you have the mountain back drop. I totally enjoyed this show and food from beginning to end. Chief is the man, what he and the staff did with the fire torches at the end of the show was a nice way to conclude the program. I know there are a lot nice luau's being offered in Honolulu, but this one right here is right up there with all the others. Great show and I had a wonderful time and evening!

I want to support students. 学生さんを応援したい

Reviewed by: あいやま

Most of the staff here work about 19 hours a week to receive tuition assistance, and I was most impressed by how hard everyone was working. The show was moving, but the restaurant staff and the guides were very friendly, making me want to come back and support the students again.

I highly recommend the drum show at Tonga Village during the park tour! It made me laugh a lot.

こちらのスタッフさんはこちらで週に１９時間ほど働くと学費補助が出る学生さんたちがほとんどで皆さん一生懸命お仕事をされている姿が一番印象的でした。ショーも感動的でしたが、レストランのスタッフの女の子や園内ガイドをしてくださるスタッフさんはとても親しみやすくまた来園して学生さんを応援したいと思いました。
園内ツアーではトンガ村のドラムショーがお薦めです！たくさん笑わせていただきました。

It's moving. 感動ものです

Reviewed by: 秋田美人

This was my second visit to the Polynesian Cultural Center in 15 years. Last time, the guide on the canoe tour was very entertaining, and we had an incredibly fun day.

I attended this time with similar expectations, but I was moved in a different way. The show itself depicted the story of a couple who escaped a volcanic eruption to a new island, where they gave birth to a child who would eventually become a king. Even though I didn't understand the English, I was deeply moved unconditionally.

ポリネシアン・カルチャー・センターは15年ぶり２回目の参加でした。前回はカヌーツアーでのガイドがとても面白おかしく説明してくれて、とにかく楽しい一日を過ごしました。
今回もそれを期待して参加したのですが、別の意味で感動しました。それはショーそのもので、島の噴火を免れて新たな島に非難した夫婦が子供を出産しやがて、その子が王様になるまでのストーリーを演じてくれたのですが、英語が解らなくてもとにかく無条件で感動させられました。

Are you all students!? No, you're professionals! みんな学生！？いや、プロでしょ！

Reviewed by: task

If you cannot arrange a rental car, you should not try to come by bus or other means. The last bus leaves after 9 PM, so there won't be any available for your return. I recommend joining a tour for a worry-free experience.

Almost all the staff at the Polynesian Cultural Center are students from Brigham Young University-Hawaii, who are dedicated to their studies based on the teachings of the Mormon Church. For Japanese people, who may have less exposure to religious views, this might feel a bit strange, but once you participate in the tour, you'll quickly realize that "it doesn't matter!"

First of all, the students at the cultural center are very serious and polite. They seemed like experienced guides! Each event was interesting, and I was impressed to hear that the students are practicing while studying—what a great experience they're having!

After arriving on-site, I requested to upgrade our tour rank to "Super Ambassador" (the highest rank), and despite the challenges, they were able to accommodate us, which I truly appreciated. When it started to rain, they quickly brought us raincoats, showing great thoughtfulness!

The food was served buffet-style, allowing us to choose only the dishes we liked, which was very satisfying.

Additionally, we got to watch the Polynesian show from the front row center, making me feel like one of the characters in the story of the show. The content was easy to understand, and the professionalism of the performers was top-notch!

I would love to join this tour again as a repeat visitor!

Lastly, I am very grateful to our tour guide, Yume. Thank you very much!

ここの場所はレンタカーなどの手配が出来ない方は、まずバスなどを来ようとしてはいけません。帰りは21時過ぎるので、バスがなくなります。
車が手配できない方は、ツアーで安心して行くことをお勧めします。


ポリネシア文化センターのスタッフはほぼ全て、Brigham Young University-Hawaiiの学生さんたちです。そしてモルモン教を基に学業などに専念されている方たちです。
宗教観の少ない日本人にとっては、何か違和感を感じるかもしれませんが、

すぐにわかるでしょう☆

まず、文化センターの学生さんたちはとてもまじめで丁寧です。まるで経験を積んだガイドのようでした！
イベント一つ一つが面白く、それらを学生たちが、勉強しながら練習もしてると聞いて、「いい経験してるなぁ～」と感心します。

途中、雨が降ってきたときにも、すぐにレインコートを持ってきてくれ、

料理もバイキング形式なので、好きな食べ物だけを選び、実に満足♪

My friend and I decided to check this out as we were looking for something to do for the night. I have been to many Luau's before so I wasn't expecting anything amazing, but I turned out to be very wrong. the Chief was extremely funny throughout the whole night and he was also very interactive with the crowd. They had some fun activities before the Luau as well so that was fun. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a great night with great people! Hands down the best Luau I have done.

An incredibly fulfilling day. ものすごく中身の濃い１日

Reviewed by: hava

Hawaii prices are high, but the continuous attractions provide an incredible sense of fulfillment once everything is over. Considering what tourists are looking for, almost all renovations have been completed.

I would recommend the deluxe option, even if it requires a bit of a stretch, due to the added value of small group tours, the content of the dinner, the behind-the-scenes tour where you can take photos with the dancers, and the seating position for the final Polynesian show.

As for the facilities, they are operated by the Mormon Church, and students from Brigham Young University (many of whom are Japanese) work diligently as guides and dancers to earn their tuition, providing very polite and kind service.

An unexpected highlight is the free tour of the Mormon Church facility, which is just a 5-minute ride on a dedicated bus, allowing anyone to deepen their understanding of this religion. The total time is 25 minutes, so you will need to choose between the behind-the-scenes tour or this option during the time between the aforementioned dinner and the Polynesian show. Of course, there are no strange solicitations, so you can rest easy.

Lastly, since most attractions are outdoors, don't forget to take measures against sunburn and stay hydrated.

　ハワイ価格はお高いですが、アトラクションが間断なく連続し、すべて終わったあとの充実感は半端でありません。観光客が何を求めているかを踏まえ、ほぼリニューアルも完了。
　なお、少人数でのツアーによる小回りの良さやディナーの内容、ダンサーとの写真撮影ができる楽屋裏ツアー、最後のポリネシアンショーの席の位置などの付加価値から、多少無理してもデラックスをおすすめしたいです。
　施設としては運営母体がモルモン教であり、運営するプリガム・ヤング大学の学生（日本人多数）が学資を得るためにガイドやダンサー等スタッフとして真面目に働いていて、接客はとても丁寧で親切。
　意外なみどころでは専用バスで５分のところにあるモルモン教の施設見学ツアーが誰でも無料で参加でき、この宗教に関する理解を深めることができます。トータル２５分なので、前述のディナーとポリネシアンショーの間の時間に、楽屋裏ツアーかどちらかを選択することになります。もちろん変な勧誘はありませんのでご心配なく。
　最後に、大半が屋外アトラクションになるため、日焼け止め対策と水分補給をお忘れなく。

Good Show, Decent Food

Reviewed by: J Johnson

Overall it was a nice show. The majority of the time there is spent doing crafts or browsing the many shops with things for sale, so the show really is only a small part of the event. The food was pretty good; however, our food was cold due to the order that they served it. Being as we had the highest priced VIP package you would have thought we would have been served first; nope. We were dead last and had cold food, although the flavor was still very good. I think it is worth doing while visiting the island, I would just not suggest the expensive packages as there is no real benefit.

It was rare to encounter a bit of rain, but after that, the weather turned nice, which was great. They had proper raincoats prepared, which was helpful. I rode on something like a raft to tour the center, and I learned a lot of new things that were refreshing. The hula experience was also very interesting, and afterward, a story through dance began at the main venue, which captivated me. I even accidentally cried a little. Fortunately, I was able to watch an important competition to determine the world champion of fire dancing, and it was truly moving. The food was delicious, and I had a very enjoyable time.

A wonderful grandfatherly guide. 素敵なおじいさんガイド

Reviewed by: pippo

This is my third time, and this time the guide on the outbound trip was a Japanese-American in their 80s. They kept telling interesting and funny stories to make sure we didn't fall asleep, and it was very entertaining. The excitement of the show never gets old, no matter how many times you see it. Also, becoming a Super Ambassador means you get reserved front-row seats for each event, among other privileges, allowing for a comfortable experience overall.

３度目ですが、今回は往路のガイドさんが、８０代の日系二世の方だったのですが、とにかく寝かさないように面白おかしい話をず～っとし続けてくださり、とても面白かったです。
ショーの迫力は何度見ても飽きません。
また、スーパーアンバサダーにすると、各イベントごとに席は最前列を予約してくれる…等、すべてにおいて優遇され、快適に過ごせます。
