Such an amazing experience! I have been wanting to swim with sharks since I was a child, and have always been fascinated by them. Being in a small group of 6 makes the experience much more personal, and you get a good amount of swim time. We had 10 sharks total on our swim, all varying at different times, not all at once. My brother came along for the experience and he loved every bit of it, as I did. I am so glad I did this, and can't wait to do it again one day!!

We didn't understand the explanations at all, but we made it through. The staff were kind and friendly! There are no lockers, so it's best to go with minimal luggage!

For starters, the show Ha! Breath of Life is AMAZING! If nothing else, that is worth a visit.
Ok, so the Circle Island Tour - yeah, you circle (most of) the island and see some cool things (briefly), but you can get circle island tours from pretty much everyone and ended up with about 3 total after all of our activities there over our week. The biggest problem with this Circle Island Tour is that it takes TOO LONG! You're going to want ample time to do the tour, but not when that time cuts into your time at the cultural center.
We did the circle island tour and the ambassador package. By the time we finished the tour and go to the center, did all the ambassador check in crap, and got to start seeing the center, we had already lost at least 1.5 hours of the already short time available to visit the various cultures. The group tour and the guide does help you learn some cool things, but it also makes everything take longer. In the end, we went back a second day so that we could see all the things we missed the first day (maybe that's the point - more $$ from the visitors??).
I don't want to lead you to believe the center is poor. On the contrary, we very much enjoyed the center. The luau was meh. The show was GREAT! We just wouldn't recommend the circle island tour (as it was for us) or the ambassador package (unless you want to buy it for the good seats but ditch the tour guide in the park).
Definitely visit the park, definitely see the show. Consider ditching the tour guide in the park, consider doing the circle island tour with another company or on a different day, and if you see a luau anywhere else, consider skipping it here (it wasn't the best luau we attended).
Note, the 3 stars if for the package, not for the center on the whole. The center was great, we just weren't keen on the package we purchased.
Mahalo Brian for your wonderful feedback, very happy you were able to take advantage of another day; however sorry that the guide was not a benefit to you and your group. We will address these concerns with our team. Aloha oe!

My friend and I were completely freaking out before we went out on this tour, but afterwards, we just wanted to go again and again! There is nothing as strangely calming and thrilling than to be in the open ocean with what seems likes hundreds of sharks swimming below you.
With only six passengers, we all got lots of attention and assistance, and during the ride out, our safety guides told us all about the sharks and other creatures we would see as well as what to do while we are in the water. There was not a moment after I boarded the boat that I felt uneasy or unsafe. I knew that the captain and crew had not only our best interests at heart, but the sharks as well.
It was a humbling experience to be in the shark's home and it is something that I will treasure forever!

- If you arrange for transportation, it will be $60 per person, so you can cover the rental car cost.
- We arrived in about an hour from Honolulu.
- We had the early morning plan and departed before sunrise.
- We were the second group, but just before entering the water, the sun rose and it got warm.
- We didn't encounter anything other than the sandbar shark.
- We were packed into a cage with six people, so there were a lot of us and we couldn't move freely.

The concept of this park is good but we were disappointed overall because one cannot complete this park truly in 1 day as they open from noon till 5 PM only. You need more than 1 day and it's not close to Waikiki. The overall park is good in terms of exhibit and shows and has lot to take in, it's a good way to preserve and exhibit various Polynesian culture but they should consider opening longer hours. Also do not get caught up into buying morning lunch to get 30 mins early entry if you arrive around 11:30 as you will end up being last entering the actual park as you will be waiting in line to get seated for buffet style lunch. The lunch and dinner included has plenty of options if you are not vegetarian or vegan, otherwise totally can be skipped.

With all the choices to spend your money in Oahu, you may want to conserve your spending. However, I had one do-over, this would be it.
The PCC is organized by hundreds and they provide entertainment and food to thousands daily. My advise is to spurge to avoid the wait-times but also because the service and selection is significant. The dinner and night show was a great performance and I think it is worth the extra dollars for better food and better seats.
Had I known, I would have avoided the negative side of economy seats and food, and the terrible customer service that didn't allow a willing customer to pay for an upgrade.

OK, so the idea of going to 'find' sharks as opposed to avoiding them at all costs can take a little getting used to. However once I'd gotten over that, I have to say this is one of the most exhilarating experiences I've had (and enjoyed) on the island.
There's two basic times that you can go out, Super early or Early, Yes that's right, Don't plan on a late night in the bar the night before trying to drum up Dutch courage because this boat leaves early and you want to get your sleep in.
After a leisurely 20-25 mins boat ride out (i think they said about 2 miles) to the dive site you arrive in an open water area, engines are cut and you pull up next to the cage. A quick chat from the crew, and two groups are selected A & B, This ensures you have maximum space in the cage and is a really cool idea.
We climbed in first, GoPro's on and ready to start shooting...
The cage is actually rather large and you definitely want to be up close to the bars hold on, and go down to get your first glimpse... I'm not going to say much more on what you'll see but I will say, This is a guaranteed sharks (plural, many lol) shark tank dive. They big, upclose and personal and you are totally safe in your secure housing...
You get ample time to take selfies, group shots, dive down again, hold the bottom of the cage etc as these amazing creatures swim all around you.
I'd forgot my wrist strap for my cam, No problem, The crew guy noticed as I was getting ready ad gave me a cool wrist-strap for it (thick rubber band!) Awesome Service.
Highly Recommended. 5*

My husband, parents and I really enjoyed the sunset dinner ride. The only thing I wish we could have done was gallop or even cantor a bit. If you are a new rider or inexperienced, this is perfect for you. The views were breathtaking and the guide was great. The food was decent, however when we got done we realized we didn't get the corn on the cob or the pie that was advertised in the add. What we did get was steak, shrimp, rice, macaroni salad, fresh fruit and we made smores over the fire. The best was the fruit and the smores. Overall it was really fun and a great experience.

The tour itself was really fun. The North Shore is famous for its high waves and surfing, so the ride to the destination was quite bumpy. Even I, who usually doesn't get seasick, felt a bit unwell.

Our guide, Maki, was very kind and attentive. The roads in Hawaii are not very good, and combined with the uncomfortable bus ride, I experienced a bit of motion sickness. It would have been better if the bus windows were a little cleaner. At the Polynesian Cultural Center, there were many things to see and do, and we spent a very rich time there. It started to rain during our visit, but we were helped by receiving a free vinyl poncho. The behind-the-scenes tour included in the deluxe course is a must-see. The roast beef for dinner was delicious. It would have been even better if alcohol had been included.
ガイドのマキさん、とても親切で気の利く方でした。ハワイの道があまり良くないのと、バスの乗り心地が悪いのが相まって、少々車酔いしました。バスの窓がもう少し掃除して綺麗だと良かったです。ポリネシア文化センターでは見たりやったりが沢山で、かなり濃い時間を過ごしました。途中、雨が降ってきましたが、ビニールのポンチョを無料で頂けたので助かりました。デラックスコースに付いている、舞台裏の見学は必見です。夕食のローストビーフは美味でした。これでアルコールがOKならもっと良かったのですが。

The zip line was physically demanding, but it was exciting and fun! The friendliness of the staff and the enjoyable atmosphere were also very good. My whole family said they were glad to participate.
The start was terrible as we waited 30 minutes for the bus. It was stated that if it didn't arrive in 10 minutes, we should call, so I did, but since it was in English, the conversation didn't go well. I called twice. During the second call, I was told to wait another 10 minutes, and after 30 minutes, the bus finally arrived. The voucher said to wait in front of the Ilikai Hotel, but the pickup was in front of the road, not at the entrance. Also, instead of calling me by name, they shouted "Zip line!" and I almost didn't realize it in time, which was scary.
Once we arrived, the staff were very friendly and created a fun atmosphere. With gestures, I could generally understand what they were saying in English!
First, we registered our profiles and consent on a wall-mounted PC screen. We had to leave all our belongings behind and participate with just our bodies. It was mandatory to use the restroom before joining.
We moved around the site in a jeep, and it was fun with the bumpy ride that splashed mud everywhere.
After that, we slid down the zip line, starting with the staff demonstrating how it’s done. Then, two people at a time took turns sliding. Before sliding, the staff communicated via walkie-talkie to inform each other of who was going next. The instructions before sliding were precise, which made me feel safe.
There are two ways to slide: fast and slow, and they provided a briefing on this. We slid down seven lines, doing various styles including upside down.
The course included climbing down with ropes, using arm strength to pull ourselves up, and a suspension bridge. We also had bananas and nuts to eat and could drink water, making it feel like an obstacle course. There were two zip line options in Hawaii, one in Croatia and this one, but we chose this one because it seemed more fun. I think we made the right choice.
While enjoying the zip line, I was impressed by the staff's skill and professionalism.
I believe my whole family enjoyed it. As a gesture of gratitude, I gave a small tip to two staff members I was able to identify during the tour. After finishing, it seems they go on break, so it’s best to give tips right away if you want to.
Thank you very much.
ジップライン、体力使いましたがエキサイティングで楽しかったです!
スタッフさんのフレンドリーさと楽しい雰囲気もとても良かったです。
家族みんな参加して良かったと言っていました。
スタートは最悪でバスを30分待ちました。10分待ってこなかったら電話と記載があったのでかけましたが、英語なので会話が成立しません。2回も電話かけました。2回目に10分待つように言われて、30分待ちで来ましたが、バウチャーはイリカイホテルの玄関前とありましたが、迎えに来たのはホテル前の道路の前で玄関前には来ませんでした。また「●●さん」と名前で呼ばずに、「ジップライン!」と叫ばれてすぐに気が付かず、乗り遅れなくて良かった。怖い・・と思いました。
現地に付いたら、スタッフさんはとてもフレンドリーで楽しい雰囲気で、ゼスチャーもあるのか英語なのに何を言ってらっしゃるのかが大体解りました!
最初にプロフィールと承諾を壁掛けのPC画面で登録します。
持物は全てあずけて身体一つ。必ずトイレをしてから参加です。
ジープで敷地内を移動しますが、泥が飛んでくるくらいグネグネ運転で楽しかったです。
その後ジップラインを滑走しますが、最初まずスタッフさんが滑って見本を見せてくれます。
その後順番に2名ずつ滑走します。滑走前にはスタッフさんがトランシーバーで連絡を取り合い、誰が滑るかを名前を伝えています。滑る前の滑走の手順も正確で安心して滑れました。
滑り方には速く滑る方法と、ゆっくり滑る方法があります。これをレクチャーしてくれます。
7本滑りましたが、逆さになったり、いろんな滑り方をしました。
コースの中には、上から縄で下に降りたり、下から上に腕力を使って自分を引上げたり、吊り橋があったり、途中バナナやナッツも食べたり、水を飲めたりアスレチックのようでした。
ジップラインはハワイでクロアチアと2つあったのですが、こちらの方がコースが楽しそうだったので私達はこちらを選びました。多分正解でした。
ジップラインを楽しむとともに、スタッフさんの滑走の上手さや仕事ぶりが素晴らしく関心してしまいました。
家族みんな楽しめたと思います。感謝の気持ちを込めて、一緒に回ったスタッフさんで発見できたスタッフさん2名にチップを少しお渡ししました。終了すると休憩に入られるみたいで姿がすぐにいらっしゃる場所が解らなくなりますので、渡したい方はすぐに渡したほうが良いです。
ありがとうございました。
