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>

Truly moving! 本当に感動!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

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。

Hawaii Shark Encounters - North Shore Shark Cage Diving Tour from Haleiwa

Great experienc w/ experienced crew

Reviewed by: Jose

This adventure delivers on exactly what it offers. If you've seen the shark specials on the discovery channel this will be very similar except for the fact that YOU are up close and personal with the sharks. Bring waterproof camera for great shots. I didn't have one but I brought my live action camera and filmed some great footage from on the boat.

Hawaii Shark Encounters - North Shore Shark Cage Diving Tour from Haleiwa

THE BEST!!

Reviewed by: Rob

This experience was the best thing I have ever done in my short time on this earth! Even though I was seasick I still had the time of my life. The captain made sure everything was as safe and controlled. These sharks were not aquarium sharks! These beautiful creatures were enormus, full of spledor and power. I was amazed to see in real life. If or when I return to the island I will do this adventure again. Don't miss the opportunity to get in the cage you only live once, Seize the Day!

Fun @ the Polynisian Cuktural Ctr.

Reviewed by: Elly from Massachusetts

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

Reviewed by: Hawaii Rookies

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.

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 recommend Samoa Village. サモア村お勧めです。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

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。

I have been to this Center multiple times. And I will probably go back again some time. I continue to take friends and family to this Center as I find the educational value significant. I also enjoy the talents of the people and enjoy the food. This is a great place to visit.

Fun!

Reviewed by: Danielle

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.

I could not go in the cage as the mask interfered with my dentures but as it was my grandaughter's birthday gift...it was fun to watch her and I could see lots of sharks from the boat (even though it was very rough water).

絶景スカイダイビング 一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動!ビデオ&写真撮影付きプランあり by ゴージャンプハワイ<送迎付き>

It's something you should do at least once. 一度はやるべき。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

If you're going to fall, go bungee jumping.
If you want to fly, try skydiving.

Honestly, I had high expectations for the "1-2 minutes of free fall," but when it comes to diving from above the clouds, it feels too high to really experience the fall. You just spin a few times for a moment after jumping (are you swaying?), and then you play around with the strong winds. Once the parachute opens, you start to understand what it feels like to be a bird, and the refreshing sensation takes over.

The good weather probably helped, but the dedicated Cessna was also incredibly stable. Compared to a commercial airplane moving through the air currents, there was virtually no vertical shaking.

Actually, the day before, I heard from a scuba diving instructor about another company where 5-6 people have had incidents each year, so I felt relieved to have chosen this place.

Both before and after the jump, everyone was really relaxed and willing to take photos, which suited me perfectly.

As a keepsake, I bought a T-shirt that the instructor was wearing, but $18 felt a bit pricey... (well, I guess it's like a tip).

Mr. Tim is a bit cheeky, but he's a really great guy!

落ちるならバンジー。
空を飛ぶならスカイダイビング。

正直、「1~2分の自由落下」の期待は高かったんですが、
雲の上からのダイブとなると高すぎて落ちる実感沸かないし、
飛び降りた瞬間だけ数回転しながら落ちる(揺れてる?)程度で
あとは強風と戯れて、パラシュートが開けば
鳥の気持ちが理解出来るかなってな感じで
爽快感の方が勝る。ってな具合でした。

天気が良かったせいもあるでしょうが
専用セスナも実に安定してますね。
気流の中を進む旅客機に比べれば縦揺れ感覚も皆無でした。

実は前日に何処とは言えませんが
他会社で年間5~6人が○○してる話を
スキューバダイビングのインストラクターから聞いていて
ココにして良かったという安心感があったのも事実です

飛ぶ前も飛んだ後もの~んびりしてて、
気軽に写真に応じてくれるし自分には合ってました

記念にインストラクターも着てるTシャツ買ったんですが、
$18はちっと高い気も・・・(まぁチップの感覚で)

ティム先生はあつかましいけど非常にイイ奴ですよ

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

Fantastic Experience!!

Reviewed by: Amanda & Allan

This was a great adventure! Being in the cage is extremely rough, and you have to hold on to avoid getting thrown around by the huge waves, but this is a small problem! There must have been at least 15-20 sharks (Galapagos and sandbar sharks) swimming all around, and rubbing on the cage! I would recommend this activity to anyone who can handle a rough ocean. It was one of the best things we did in Hawaii!! Take anti-nausea pills, as the waves are huge, and the boat rocks hard (even for those who don't think they get seasick).

Excellent Oahu activity!

Reviewed by: George

I did this with my 23 year old daughter and we both felt that this was an outstanding activity! The ride was great - some hills, windy trails, spectacular views, just the right length - 90 minutes. The staff was super - Darleena couldn't have been better - so knowledgeable, friendly and patient! The horses were very calm and perfect for this type of ride. We both agree that this is one of the best things we've done on Oahu. We've already recommended Gunstock Ranch to other family members that are planning to visit Hawaii. (I'll send photos later)

For those who find sightseeing horseback riding insufficient, I think you'll enjoy it as they can adjust the pace to your level, allowing for faster trots and gallops.

観光乗馬では物足りない方には、レベルに合わせて早足や駈けさせてくれるので、楽しめると思います。

It was fun! 楽しかった☆

Reviewed by: おり

This was my first time participating, and it was really fun! The boat rocked quite a bit, but no one got seasick during our trip. The staff only spoke English, but they were cheerful, and there were no significant inconveniences. Once we got started, it was more exciting than scary, and it was truly a memorable experience that you rarely get to have. I wish we could have dived more. We went at the end of September, and it was really cold after we got out. Also, I'm glad I brought an underwater camera!

今回初めての参加でしたが本当に面白かったです!
船はかなり揺れましたが私たちの時は誰も船酔いしませんでした。スタッフの方は英語しか話せませんが陽気で特に不便な事もなかったです。
いざ始まってみると怖いというより滅多にできる体験ではないので本当に楽しく感動でした。
出来ればもっと沢山潜っていたかったです。
私たちが行ったのは9月末でしたが上がった後はすごく寒かったです。あと水中カメラは持っていってよかったです!
