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>

A variety of dishes and an evolving show. 沢山の料理、進化しているショー

Reviewed by: M.K.O

The variety of dishes is abundant.
I think it's recommended for those who want to enjoy different cultures, as there are many flavors that are not found in Japan.

Regarding the show, one point of evolution since before COVID is the fire dance. It has significantly evolved from about four performers to a maximum of around ten.

料理の種類は豊富です。
日本には無い、味付けの物が多いので、異文化を楽しみたい方にはお勧めだと思います。

ショーについて、コロナ前から進化している点としてファイヤーダンスがあります。以前の4人程度から最大10人程に大幅に進化していました。

This was our second time in a decade visiting, and we were impressed by the displays, knowledge of the staff and the Breath of Life show.

Best Day Ever!

Reviewed by: Masterson

There was so much to see and do. We thoroughly enjoyed the demonstrations and musical presentations. We learned how to make poi, husk coconuts, and weave palm fronds, among other things. The dinner buffet was the best ever, with so much variety in the wide range of menu items. The theater presentation “The Breath of Life” was outstanding! Kudos to all the young university students who work so hard to provide such a unique cultural experience. Everyone was warm and welcoming. This was our second visit (previous one was in 1986) and we were not disappointed. We would return again in a heartbeat!

I saw it and experienced it, and even an aunt like me had fun! 見て体験しておばさんでも楽しめました!

Reviewed by: hide

My friend really enjoyed it, so we decided to join the tour with transportation included. Since my friend came before the pandemic, it seems that some things have changed. We spoke with a guide who was wearing a badge from Japan and got an explanation, and we toured the center with the guided option. Thanks to the guide's arrangements, we were able to see almost everything in the park, and it was a fulfilling day. My friend said it was even better than the last time they visited, and we were able to have various experiences!

友達がとてもよかったのでもう一度行きたいとのことで送迎付きでツアー参加。
友達は、コロナ前のに来たので少し様子が変わってしまったようで日本のバッチをつけているガイドさんに声をかけて説明してもらい、ガイド付のオプションでセンター内を見学しました。ガイドさんのはからいで園内ほとんど廻れて充実した1日でよかったです。
友達も前回来たときよりも充実してたと言ってました、色々な体験もできました!

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

Glorious Day!

Reviewed by: Stuart and Susan

The reservations are easy - and complete. I was still recuperating from a surgery, so we secured a mobility cart, which is right at the entrance to the Polynesian Cultural Center. The bus picks up from several points in Waikiki; it is comfortable and also waiting right at the entrance-exit after the show is over. The day is extraordinary - the staff is so friendly and helpful, as we asked questions at the various Islands. There is a river cruise you can take - the Center is 40 square miles (think Disneyland) so prepare your walking shoes and attire accordingly. Terrific shopping before the Center actually opens. Take a poncho, because there is a lot of rain on that side of the island - rains quickly, dries quickly.

The buffet is amazing and delicious, and a real bargain if you're feeding starving teens! The show is exquisite. They help park the mobility cart everywhere, so if you have mobility issues - worry not!

Enjoy as much as we did!

Wonderful Experience!

Reviewed by: TravelGoddess

[Reviewed by HawaiiActivities.com Staff]

On March 15th, 2024, I went to PCC and participated in the Gateway Buffet package. This experience included admission to the park, buffet, and show. Each village was unique, and educational. The canoe ride was my favorite part of the park, a must do!

The buffet dinner was INCREDIBLE, they had everything you could imagine. From salad, sides, pork, chicken, beef, seafood, and dessert. The presentation of the food, and dinning hall felt like something out of a movie! They really set the scene for local cuisine.

'HA: Breath of Life,' show was spectacular a must see! The dancers were truly amazing! I would definitely go see it again and again. Everything about PCC was so professional, engaging, fun, and educational. There is something for the whole family.

I would recommend PCC to anyone who enjoys learning about different cultures, and has a full day to spend away from Waikiki.

Fun

Reviewed by: Destiny Paine

This was a full day activity. We stared on the canoe amd ended the one end. Walked to each village. At each village they are very informative on their culture. They have activities you can participate in or just watch their 15-20 min skits. The journey movies was quite amazing but moves a lot, but worth it. The buffet was absolutely the best I've ever been to! So much food to choose from. Plus there was live entertainment. We also stayed for the breath of life show, which was spectacular. Goosebumps for sure.

Evening Show イブニングショー

Reviewed by: Mick

The evening show was not a typical Hawaiian luau; it had a storyline that felt reminiscent of a performance by the Shiki Theatre Company in Japan. Compared to traditional ones, it had a stronger entertainment flair, but it was very enjoyable with a nice balance of laughter and emotion.

イブニングショーは典型的なハワイのルアウでなく、ストーリーがあり、日本で言えば劇団四季の様な演出に似たものを感じました。伝統的なものに比べれば演出色が強いエンターテイメントという感じですが、笑い、感動のメリハリがありとても楽しかったです。

Fascinating to learn about different island cultures through dance, music, games and food. The fact the performers are from those islands amazed me. They are so proud of their island and culture and language. Wish I could go back a second day ( or open earlier) so I could see and play all the games.

Polynesian Centre

Reviewed by: Jeanne

We enjoyed our excursion from the bus ride to the Polynesian Centre to the bus ride back to our hotel. Our driver's name was Misi! He went above and beyond what was expected of him.

The walk through the Centre was incredible. Seeing the different islands and cultures. We took a canoe ride after walking around for about 4 hours. It was a welcome relief getting of our feet.

Our tickets included the dinner buffet. There was so much food to choose from which made it difficult to try everything. It was good.

After dinner we watched the The Breath of Life which was incredibly good. The performance was amazing. It was the perfect ending to a wonderful day.

Fun filled day was more than we expected

Reviewed by: TurtleCouple

The Cultural Center Island tour was full of amazing and helpful hosts and entertainers. I have never felt more welcome by so many people. To temper a few expectations some of the activities we expected to be interactive were instead demos by professionals only but we still had a blast doing the many activities that do allow participation and those alone filled a very full day of exploring the islands.

The Buffet was delicious had more foods than we could fit and incredibly welcoming atmosphere.

The HA Breath of life show was an amazing experience and some of the best fire spinning and hula and so much more you will get to see in Hawaii

Be warned: the gap of time between the closing of the cultural center and the opening for the final show is quite long (they do warn you about his on the bus and offer an early exit at 6pm if you decide before 4pm that you wont have the energy) but with that said it was well worth it and we were glad we stayed for the full show.

Every single presentation was excellent! Kap on the Samoan stage was fabulous, entertaining and funny! Great artwork too. Enjoyed the Fiji one also, especially noting that the missionaries led them to Christ and then their idols were torn down! Learned about ancestral New Zealand which I didn’t know the name of, bur I do now! While we did not really have a guide as expected, there were always people to show us the next move when we appeared lost! The luau was good, our first ever. And enjoyed hearing the music of Wahine Elua - very good!
The theater production after the Luau was impressive too! Super talent on display, especially the spectacular fire dancer and her team! WOW!

I experienced the buffet dinner and evening show with the "Bronze Seat."
The buffet was very delicious, with a wide variety of fresh dishes that suited the Japanese palate. (The food had no greasy feeling at all, so I enjoyed it very much.)
The evening show was an incredibly powerful and immersive experience, almost like "The Lion King" by the Shiki Theatre Company. In my case, I had a "ringside" seat, so I was able to enjoy it to the fullest.

The show was amazing. ショーは最高でした

Reviewed by: yummy

I booked the show and dinner course. The variety of dishes was plentiful, and there were Japanese staff members, which made me feel comfortable while dining. The taste was neither particularly good nor bad... but there were local flavor menu items, which was nice. The show was story-driven and absolutely fantastic! It's worth seeing at least once. However, this plan does not include the admission fee for the Polynesian Cultural Center, so if you want to visit the Polynesian Cultural Center, there will be an additional charge. It's a somewhat reasonable amount (I was surprised when I paid, haha), so if you have time to spare, it's fine, but considering the meal time in this tour, you won't be able to fully enjoy all the areas... Still, it was quite fun.

ショーとディナーのコースを申し込みました。
料理は品数も多く、日本人のスタッフもいて安心して食事できました。味は可もなく不可もなく…でもご当地の味付けメニューもあり良かったです。
ショーは物語仕立てで最高でした!一見の価値有りです。
ただ、このプランにはポリネシアンカルチャーセンターの入場料は含まれてませんのでポリネシアンカルチャーセンターを見たい方は別に料金がかかります。まぁまぁな金額なので(払ってビックリw)、時間に余裕のある方はいいですが、このツアーで食事の時間など考えるとすべてのエリアを十分に楽しむことはできません… でもなかなか楽しかったです。
