オアフ島1日周遊観光 ポリネシアカルチャーセンターとハワイ最大のダンスショー+ハレイワタウン+この木なんの木+ドールプランテーション

The half-day tour and Polynesian Cultural Center were fun. Especially thank you to Maki. 半日観光&ポリネシアカルチャーセンター楽しかったです。特にMAKIさん、ありがとう。

Reviewed by: 千葉のナカジー

Due to my child's poor health, I called at 5 PM the day before and was able to postpone our participation by one day. Thank you for your flexible response.

The half-day tour on the day was enjoyable with a funny guide named MAKI from Ibaraki. I also appreciate the guide at the Polynesian Cultural Center for their clear explanations.

However, the reason I did not give a five-star rating is that the dinner menu was only on the table, and I didn't know how to proceed. It was a buffet style, wasn't it? The menu on the table was for the buffet. I would have appreciated a brief explanation about that.

The subsequent night show was also wonderful and enjoyable. I would like to meet MAKI again. Thank you very much.

That's all.

子供の体調が悪かったため、前日の17時に電話し、参加を一日ずらせてもらえました。臨機応変に対応いただきありがとうございました。

当日の半日観光は、MAKIさんという茨城出身の面白いガイドさんで、楽しく回れました。
ポリネシアカルチャーセンターのガイドのお兄さんも、わかりやすく案内いただきありがとうございました。

しかし、評価が星5つではないのは、夕食が、メニューだけ机にあり、どう行動したら良いかわからなかったことです。バイキング形式だったんですね。机の上のメニューは、バイキングのメニューだったんですね。
そのような説明が一言、欲しかったです。

その後のナイトショーもすばらしく、良かったです。
また、MAKIさんに会いたいと思いました。
ありがとうございました。

以上

So much to do.....so little time!

Reviewed by: Peggy D

We really enjoyed the day and had an excellent guide - JJ. Her beautiful smile was refreshing as was everyone's who worked there. Seemed like they all enjoy their job and are proud of the PCC.
So much education, impossible to see and grasp in one day. Beautiful scenery, wonderful entertainment. Was a little too warm, could have used a little AC here and there but no complaints!

The guided tour and the whole experience was very good. We have actually seen a better Luau, however, the show made up for any kind of disappointment we would ever have with the Luau. Great facility, very clean, especially the restrooms. Wonderful family experience.

First Time to the Islands

Reviewed by: Chris

This was our first time to the islands as a family and the Circle Tour and Polynesian Cultural Center was a great way to start our trip. The Polynesian Cultural Center was so cool learning about all the different Polynesian cultures and customs. We would definitely recommend this to anyone else visiting the islands. The canoe show was great!

Awesome experience. Everyone is truly very nice.

Reviewed by: Take K

Love the experience. Love the food. Will come back and visit again. We came with two small children’s 2 and 4. They love the show and the buffet. Love the boat ride and the theater show. Ac is very cold in the imax show. We took the boat ride and went the very back and visited all the villages back so it’s a one way trip to the buffet if the timing is right. And after the buffet we hang out by the market and listen to the live music.

So Much Fun!!!

Reviewed by: Ruby

The Villages were very informational, enjoyable and entertaining. Wasn't able to visit all of them so we were very lucky to see the ones we did visit. The Cook Island show was outstanding!!! OH MY, it was awesome, can't say enough for the entertainment and talent of the dancers, drummers and singers. The water parade was so beautiful and the stories were so informational. The buffet, was delicious and it had all you could ever want to eat and drink. The best was left for last and that was the show. OMG, it was a delight, amazing, educational, talent abounded, a site you couldn't believe. It was the whole package. I'm so grateful we went.

It was wonderful. 素晴らしかった

Reviewed by: Мさん

The Polynesian Cultural Center was truly wonderful and moving. I've been to Hawaii several times, but this was my first visit here. I thought it was a bit expensive, but I believe it was worth even more than that. Next time, I would like to participate in a tour of just the gardens. The transportation was also efficient and comfortable.

ポリネシアカルチャーセンターは、大変すばらしく、感動しました。ハワイは何回か行っていますが、こちらは初めて行きました。少々高いかと思いましたがそれ以上の価値があると思いました。次回は園のみの観光があれば参加したいです。送迎も手際よく快適でした。

I had a very enjoyable day! The most impressive part was the guide! She was a woman with striking eye makeup and a muumuu! Throughout the bus ride, she entertained everyone with various stories about Hawaii, and at the sightseeing points, she made sure we saw everything! Every place we stopped at during the half-day tour was great. At the Polynesian Cultural Center, we had a Japanese student guide who showed us around. It was very spacious and surprising! It was a beautiful place. We also enjoyed the show! A hat is definitely a must!

とても楽しい一日でした!一番印象的だったのは、ガイドさんでした!アイメークとムームーが印象的な女性です!

Reviewed by: Beth

Shows at each of the Polynesian cultures were scheduled to flow from one to the other. Huki: A Canoe Celebration was a beautiful gathering of the features of all cultures represented at the park. Being a small physical park area, walking between activities was not stressful and workers were happy to help if you couldn't find a show. Great value for money.

I booked and participated in six activities during this trip, but the Polynesian Cultural Center was the best! The bus guide, Maki, was really funny, and despite the long travel time, no one fell asleep. The local Japanese student guide at the Polynesian Cultural Center was very dedicated, which was great. One day wasn't enough, so I definitely want to participate again next time.

I was disappointed that I couldn't get off the bus even though I went all the way to the North Shore. It was also a letdown that both meals were at the Polynesian Cultural Center. I had intended to see the whole island, but it felt one-sided, and I felt like I missed out.

せっかくノースショアまで行ったりしているのに、バスから降りれず、残念なおもいをしました。
食事は2回ともポリネシアン文化センターだったのも残念ポイント。

We purchased the Super Ambassador package and we were treated like royalty. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and respectful. Iotua was our guides name so we highly recommend him. Learning about the other islands in the pacific was fun. They told you just enough that now we would like to visit each one. The parade on water was really something you don’t want to miss. Also the Breath of Fire program was awesome!

Circle Island and Polynesian Cultural Center

Reviewed by: Karen

This event was outstanding - an excellent way to see so many of the major sites on the island and experience all the Polynesian Cultural Center has to offer. The tour guide was exceptional- providing a lot of interesting information about the various places we visited. Our stops were just the right amount of time to allow us to take pictures and explore a little. My personal favorite was Hanauma Bay - such a beautiful view. The Polynesian Cultural Center is a must see when you visit the island - such interesting and lesser known facts about the history of the Center - and an outstanding luau and show.

Polynesian Cultural Experience with A Heart

Reviewed by: Robin

This is a must do experience if one wants to know more about the Polynesian Culture!

My friends and I got the Ambassador package and was extremely amazed with how all the performers, guides and crew were doing everything with so much heart and passion! There is no lying on how one consistently feels so intrigued with learning about another culture.

Despite this being a manicured and curated tourist attraction with a make-believe setting, it doesn't disappoint. Being called "family" all the time does make the entire experience different.

The Luau night show is not be be missed! The show is called Hai and is so well done that I personally want to experience it again!

Overall, there is nothing much to fault. Also note that tickets purchased and not single entry! You can go back again on another day to continue your tour if you have missed out on certain experiences.

Thumbs up!

The canoe show and night show at the Polynesian Cultural Center, as well as the hula lessons, were very enjoyable. Our guide, Kelina, was knowledgeable and made the tour both fun and informative.

We started with sightseeing in the morning and entered the center at 1 PM. The daytime shows and the park tour were enjoyable, and both lunch and dinner were delicious.

Thank you very much to the guide who took care of us during this tour. I hope to see you again next year.

Polynesian Cultural Center **EXCELLENT**

Reviewed by: E Christopherson

The whole Polynesian Cultural Center experience is a must when visiting Oahu. We to Oahu in 2016 and was so fortunate to be able to go back and see this venue. There was plenty of things to do in a day (and everyone should go back either two or three days), seeing the tickets are good for three days. The cultural entertainment was very intriguing. Unfortunately, we weren't able to do many activities on the island as there was just so much to consume the first day there.

The staff was very attentive and friendly, most of them students. Any monies spent went to the tuition and any educational expenses.

The luau was a delight. Plenty of food and very organized!

Highly Recommend!!

Cultural Center isn't a miss!

Reviewed by: Niv

The tour was okay. To begin with the driver did not wait or call us when we were at the hotel. We called the company so many times and they gave us info that the bus is late and then again in 10 minutes one says the bus left us! It was a horrible experience. I would believe they would atleast call us. But even then we tried to ask to meet the driver elsewhere to catch up on the tour and there was a long wait before they could say yes! The dispatcher lady was helpful but then the driver not so much. I didn't like how the driver kept on talking even though the crowd was asleep. Most tours I have been has a guide talking and interacting with you while the driver drives so its more fun but these have the driver drive and speak on microphone which was disappointing! The tour itself was okay because with the better tour guide it could have been much better. Do not miss the Polynesian Cultural Center. Could spend a good half a day there.
