I was only expecting to participate in the buffet and the show in the evening, but when I checked in, there were still about an hour left before the Polynesian exhibition closes, and the ticket included it. This definitely worth much more than how much I paid!

I returned home extremely satisfied after an amazing show that exceeded my expectations. The storytelling was captivating, and the finale was so powerful that it brought me to tears.
想像以上の最高のショウーで大変満足し帰ってきました。物語性になっていて、ラストは涙が出るほどのめり込む迫力で感動いたします。
I usually have a poor experience when a show includes a meal, but this was very delicious and satisfying, so I highly recommend it.
ショーを見て食事付きとなればたいてい良くない経験でしたが、大変美味しく満足できてお勧めいたします。

We did several activities in Hawaii but if I had to choose one as my favorite, it would be this one. You get to do a little bit of everything, it’s like the whole Hawaii experience. This is great family tour. I loved it so much! Plus the buffet dinner is included which was amazing! The night show for me was the best part. I can’t describe how much I loved it!
Wear comfy shoes, wear a light sweater and take some sunglasses!

We only bought the entrance tickets and drove ourselves to the Polynesian Center. The journey there was also a wonderful experience—we really enjoyed the views and the local residents. The center was very beautiful, and there were also lovely stalls where you could buy souvenirs. The staff was very hospitable. We enjoyed the many presentations from different islands. We enjoyed the welcome show. The final show was amazing, as was the buffet. Our compliments!
Let me know if you’d like any adjustments!

My son and I learned so much about the polynesian people and their culture and pride in their ancestry and the spokes person for each island was both funny and informative. I would definitely do this again and the life of breath show was amazing, sat on the front row and a few performers shook our hands after the show!

The cultural center was amazing! The buffet had a wide variety of options, blending Japanese and Western styles, and my daughter seemed to enjoy it too! The shows were all in English, but I was completely captivated by the fun atmosphere created by the dancers! I think the quality was high, with a storyline that made it enjoyable even for those who don't understand English.
What was disappointing was the tour conductor.
They were responsible for the transportation from Waikiki to the venue and arranging the tickets, but when I arrived at the meeting point just 5 minutes before departure, I was scolded for being late and told it was a 10-minute departure. We sped to the center, and upon arrival, there was hardly any explanation before we dashed to the ticket booth. They quickly explained only the location of the show and left. I would have liked more information about what the tickets allowed access to and details about the activities inside that were not available.
カルチャーセンターは最高でした!
ビュッフェの種類もとても豊富で和洋折衷なんでもあり、一緒に行った娘も楽しめたようです!
ショーは全て英語でしたがダンサーさんの楽しい雰囲気にすっかり呑まれました!
クオリティ高く、ストーリー性があって英語がわからなくても楽しめるように作られていたと思います。
残念だったのがツアーコンダクターです。
ワイキキから現地までの送りとチケットの手配までの仕事でしたが…
出発5分前に集合場所に行ったら「10分前出発です。遅い」と怒られ、ものすごい勢いで車を飛ばしてセンターに到着したと思ったら、ほぼ中の説明なくチケット売り場まで猛ダッシュ。ショーの場所だけ説明してさっさと帰ってしまいました。
チケットでどこまで入れてどこまでできるのか、や、中のアクティビティはできないことなど、もっと説明して欲しかったです。
This plan does not include buffet meals, show viewing, or activity experiences in the village area. The center was spacious enough to enjoy for a whole day, so please make a reservation according to y
このプランではビュッフェの食事とショーの観覧、村のエリアでアクティビティの体験はできません。
センターは丸一日楽しめる広さでしたので目的に応じて予約ください

Fantastisk oplevelse. Vi prøvede også for 18 år siden. Grunden til kun 4 stjerner er, at der er for kort tid til at opleve det hele. Vi kom sent derop pga vejarbejde (men havde en fantastisk chauffør), så show på vandet er godt igang og alle pladser optaget.
Der var flere rækker tomme sæder ved det store aftenshow. Hvorfor ikke lade andre sidde der, så de ser bedre?
Brug skemaet over hvad der sker, så du opnår så meget som muligt.

The show was powerful, and the audience's reaction was great, creating a wonderful sense of unity like a live performance. The buffet at Gateway was of high quality, with a variety of options, and I was very satisfied. The transportation was, in a good way, bland, which was fine for me.

We enjoyed learning about the different cultures. The best one was Samoa. The chief had us laughing the entire time. We even bought his paintings afterwards and he signed them. The buffet dinner was amazing. I recommend getting a tour guide as they can give you more information and take you through all the villages quicker.

The pickup on the way there was a bit scary due to the high speed. This was my third time, and I was satisfied with both the dinner and the show. As for the return bus, where would they drop us off? It was quite disappointing for the price, especially with no explanation provided.
行きの送迎は、猛スピードで少し怖かった。
今回3回目でしたが、ディナーもショーも満足でした。
帰りのバスは、何処で降ろしてくれるのか?

I want you to secure front-row seats to watch the show, even if it means raising the price a little.

The guide who came to pick us up was the worst. The explanations on-site were insufficient, and when I was getting the tickets, my smartphone hanging around my neck was yanked, and I almost fell. The guidance for the return trip was also inadequate, leaving me worried about whether I could get back to the hotel.

Overall, excellent experience. The show was awesome showing the traditional style of dances and performances of the Hawaiian culture. The buffet itself had many selections to choose and eat. The most highlight of the show was the HA breath of life where it was the fire rings twisted by several different men on the show which was pretty cool. We also did the islands of Polynesia 2 hour guided tour where we sat down and peeled bananas and coconut looking like materials with the dressed up villagers on site.
