Wonderful Day in Paradise
Reviewed by: jmf
Enjoyed the day very much. Dinner was very good with so many choices - not just your average luau food. The Show itself was worth the price of admission. Our seats were so close to the stage we could feel the heat from the torches. It was a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend this tour to future Honolulu visitors.

Once in a lifetime experience
Reviewed by: Kiri and Michael ❤️
You know how you can never quite describe the atmosphere, moments and beauty of something? That was this experience. From a long distance traveler- this was once in a lifetime. Tell everyone you know and bring them with you. 10/10.

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show
100/10 Recommend
Reviewed by: Kayla
I booked this on a whim (had seen a few recommendations from a travel group on Facebook). I am so glad I did!!! This was hands down our favorite thing we did. Our trip to PCC included transportation there and back, which was convenient because we didn’t rent a car. From the time we were dropped at the center to the time we arrived back at our drop off spot in Waikīkī, we were impressed. The story telling, the interactive demonstrations, the hospitality and excitement of everyone working at the center was nothing less than amazing. We ate at the restaurant called Pounders for lunch, the service was excellent and the food was some of the best we had our whole time here. We both learned so much about the Polynesian Cultures and the end show “Ha breathe of life” is one of the best live performances we’ve gone to. Anyone visiting should definitely book this, you won’t be disappointed! We spent one day at PCC, but I think you could definitely spend multiple days and really immerse yourself in each culture and spend time participating in all the activities!

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show
Very commercialised.
Reviewed by: Laura
We spent an entire day here. It was far too hot. It would have been much more enjoyable if It had been cooler.
The place itself is well laid out but it's a tourist trap.
Richard was our bus driver and although he wanted to give us as much information as he could, he repeated himself on several topics....I felt like saying to him that it's ok to be quiet on parts of the journey.

Mauka Warriors Luau - Hawaii's Best Thrilling Fire Knife Dance & Polynesian Show
Simply the “BEST” Luau ever attended.
Reviewed by: Mr. 305
Ok, ok. This was my first luau but still, in my opinion, it was the greatest luau you could attended. From start to finish, period! From the time you get picked up the host in the bus doesn’t shut up. I’m kidding. He is great. He entertains you with a comedian style performance to break the ice on your way to the Luau. Who doesn’t like to be entertained. This is better than sitting in a boring 15 minute/ half hour ride. lol. Then you get neckless beads, amazing. Make sure you’re as hungry as a lion cause there is a lot of FOOD. You will gain 10Lbs easy. Then the best awaits. Many different cultural warrior dances both male and female. But they save the best for last. The warrior fire dance. The begging slowly so you won’t poop your pants with so much fire. Talented warriors swinging fire, AMAZING. And if you are celebrating a b-day or anniversary… man you’re in for a treat. Oh did I mention the also take complimentary pictures . Keeps getting better. I’d tell you more but just book the show and see for yourself self.

The show is amazing.
Reviewed by: Jerelyn
The show was great. It highlights the cultures of different Polynesian groups. We sign up for a tour guide inside the cultural center. It helps us schedule our activities for the whole day stay over there. The tour guides are students from their university. They are amazing. I can recommend this tour for families. The dinner buffet is sumptuous.

Luau Experience
Reviewed by: Keyolfson
Our family thoroughly enjoyed the Waimea Valley Luau!
The pre activities were so fun; my son (23 years old) participated in the coconut opening and the palm head cover. He totally embraced the moment.
The area was beautiful! We did the falls and the gardens first.
The drinks were quite festive, and the food was awesome.
The “show” was engaging; I loved the music and dance. And, the fire was very impressive!
I would highly recommend this experience!

Reviewed by: ゆい
シーライフパークの入場券が3日間使えたので、ルナウショーの前日に水族館を楽しんで、当日はゆっくりショーを見に行きました。
アロハのシャツやドレスを着ている方も多く、みなさんショーを楽しみにして来た感じでした。
日本人の観光客はほぼいなかったので、海外の雰囲気のままショーを楽しめたのはよかったです。
そして料理もとてもおいしかった！
ショーの前に用意されているアクティビティも全て参加し、時間を持て余すことは一切なかったです。
何よりルナウショーの最後の、炎の刃を高速回転させるパフォーマンスは圧巻でした！

Fun, Fire, and Flare
Reviewed by: Daniel Hunt
This was a brilliant adventure, from the moment you get in line to enter and get your lei, to when you find yourself on stage dancing the Hula. The activities are great with a number of free cultural classes in the “kitchen” and around the grounds. Great photo opportunities as the sun sets, with great shots of the ocean, the city if Honolulu, and the mountain ranges.
I would recommend this for any other couple, or family regardless if there are or are not children.
