I had a full day of fun. Until now, I thought hula dancing was a Hawaiian dance, but I learned that it's a Tahitian dance. I went to Tahiti a long time ago, but what did I actually see? The various dances of the South Pacific were amazing!
1日たっぷり楽しめました。今までフラダンスはハワイのダンスだと思ってましたが、
タヒチのダンスと知り、随分前にタヒチに行ったのに何を見てきたのか?

We had a guide with us as we toured the center. The course was predetermined, and there was an interesting event happening at the neighboring booth that I really wanted to check out, but we ended up making flowers out of leaves instead, so we couldn't see it. Overall, it felt like what we wanted to see didn't align with the course we were following. Next time, maybe just a shuttle between the hotel and the center would be enough...
ガイドさんがついてセンターを回りました。コースが決まっていて、隣のブースで面白そうな催し物がやっていて、とてもそちらに行きたかったのですが私たちは葉っぱで花を作ることになり、結局見れませんでした。全体的に自分たちが見たいものと回るコースが一致してなかった感じでした。次回はホテルとセンターだけの送迎でいいかな・・・。

We had a leisurely departure from noon. Upon arrival, when exchanging our tickets, we were recommended to upgrade to a very good seat right in the middle of the front row for an additional $20 per person.
I felt it was a bit of a splurge, but since it was a celebration for my 70th birthday, I decided to go for it.
My sisters who came with me were also extremely excited and moved by the powerful show right in front of us!!
The ice cream we had at our seats was also very delicious!

I have watched this show several times from various seats, and it is on a scale that cannot be confined to just a Polynesian dance show. I perform Polynesian dance and have seen many professional shows, but this one is something else. It is truly a unique show that allows you to feel the culture of Polynesia up close.
何度か色々な席で観覧しているこのショーですが、
ポリネシアンダンショーの枠に収まりきらないすけーるです。

This time, I went to Hawaii for the New Year and wanted to see a show, so I participated. It took about an hour by bus from the hotel to the show location, but a Japanese student working part-time at a local university served as our guide. They shared fun local stories, making the journey very enjoyable. The meal before the show was also hearty and delicious, and the show itself, which included a fire show, was quite impressive.
今回は年末年始でハワイに行き、ショーを何か1つ見たかったので参加しました。ホテルからショーの場所までバスで1時間でしたが、地元の大学に通う日本人学生アルバイトがガイドをしてくれました。現地の楽しい話をしてくれて、道中とても面白かったです。ショーの前の食事もボリューム満点で美味しく、ショー自体もファイアーショーもあり見ごたえありました。

“HA Breathe of Life” is the best luau on the island of Oahu. The dinner packages are fantastic you cannot go wrong with either dinner package.

I was the only Japanese person on the shuttle bus, and the driver's explanations were only in English. It seemed that all the other passengers were from English-speaking countries, which made me feel quite out of place and anxious. When we arrived at the center, I found myself standing at the gate without anyone to guide me (how embarrassing). Fortunately, a Japanese staff member at the center (a student, I learned, who was preparing for exams) approached me and ended up helping me throughout my visit. They took the time to guide me slowly for half a day, and I was very satisfied. Although I felt anxious during the bus ride, in the end, I received a very thorough tour of the center and was able to enjoy the experience. The bus ride has now become a good memory, as it made me truly feel that I was in a foreign country. There were people from various countries.
The main show was wonderful. I was moved by the charm of hula and the intensity of the fire dance. I thought it would feel long, but the half day flew by. I'm glad I chose the afternoon course. It was so much fun.
送迎のバスには日本人は当方のみ・・・バスの運転手さんがしてくれている説明も英語のみ。
他の乗客の方は皆英語圏の方だったようで、アウェイ感満載で不安でした・・・
不安なままセンターに着くと特に誰かが案内してくれるでもなくゲートでポカーンとしていたら(恥)、センターの日本人スタッフの方(学生さんだそう。テスト前だったそうなのに)が声を掛けてくれ、そのままお世話になることに。
当方につきっきりでゆっくり半日案内してくれて大満足でした。バスの道中は不安でしたが、結果、とても丁寧にセンター内を案内してもらえ、体験を楽しめました。バス内も、今となっては外国に来ている事を実感できた、いい思い出です。色んな国の方がいらっしゃいましたよ。
メインのショーは素晴らしかったです。フラの魅力・ファイアーダンスの迫力に感動しました。

I participated in the tour because my parents, especially my father, liked it.
This was my first experience, while my parents had been there 3 or 4 times before. The show has a narrative style, and the content is in the local languages (various Polynesian languages) or English, so I think it's good to understand the content before watching. By the way, a simple overview is provided in a Japanese pamphlet. Since it was my first time, I was quite excited, but my parents, who are repeat visitors, seemed disappointed, saying, "It wasn't as impressive as before." Nevertheless, it's a great opportunity to see each culture, or rather the dances. The climax, the fire show, is also quite powerful.
The deluxe course meal is just okay. If I had to wish for something, it would be for a bit more variety. Ordering juice each time is a bit of a hassle, but it was nicely presented. Also, during the breaks in the show, you can get a large ice cream for free. It's quite big, so you might not be able to finish it!
両親、特に父が好きでツアーに参加しました。
私は初体験、両親は3,4度目の体験です。
ショーは物語調になっており、内容は現地語(ポリネシアンの各々の言葉)か英語ですので、内容を把握されてから見ると良いと思います。
ちなみに簡単な内容は日本語のパンフレットに書いてあります。
私は初なのでそれなりにエキサイトしましたが、リピーターの両親は「前よりも迫力がなくなった」と残念そうでした。
それでも各々の文化、と言うより踊りですが、を見るにはうってつけです。クライマックスのファイアーショーも迫力はあります。
デラックスコースの食事はまぁまぁです。
欲をいえばもう少し種類が多いと有り難いです。
ジュースはその都度注文するのが少し面倒ですが、きれいに飾られてありました。
あと、ショーの合間に無料で大きなアイスがもらえます。
かなり大きいので食べきれないかも!?

I participated for the second time in six years on October 30. The park hasn't changed much, but this time there was a canoe tour included, allowing us to see the villages from the canoe while seated, which was helpful for us older folks as it reduced the amount of walking.
The Hawaiian Journey, which showcases Hawaii's beautiful hidden spots on a big screen and allows you to experience it through seat vibrations, was narrated in Japanese and was very satisfying.
The show after the meal, especially the fire show, is a must-see. From the hotel pickup to the guidance around the park, the university students nearby kindly provided all the information in Japanese, allowing us to enjoy the day with peace of mind and great satisfaction.
10月30日に6年ぶり二度目の参加。園内はさほど変わっていないが、今回はカヌーツアーが含まれており、園内の村々を座ったままでカヌーから見られるので、我々年配者でも歩く度合いが少ないのは助かる。

食事後のショーは特にファイアーショーは必見である。

The Japanese tour guide was kind and pleasant, making it easy to explore. I was impressed when I saw the Hitachi commercial "What Tree, What Tree," and then we went to see turtles, but unfortunately, there were none, which was a bit disappointing. However, when we went to see the sunset in Hawaii, I was moved to see the beautiful sunset and 5 to 6 turtles. I've seen various night views in Japan, but the night views in Hawaii were also wonderful. There was a spot on the way back where the lights from the oncoming traffic were incredibly beautiful; it's something that leaves a lasting impression when you see it.

日立のコマーシャル「この木、何の木」を見て「おーと感激し」その後亀を見に行ったのですが、残念ながらいなくて少し残念感があったのですが、ハワイの夕日を見に行くと夕焼けと亀が5~6頭居て感動しました、日本でも色々夜景を見てきましたがハワイで夜景もすばらしい物がありました。帰りの対向車線からの車のライトがものすごく綺麗な所がありました、一回見て見ると感激します。

I was called by my "personal name" from the pickup, and no matter which activity we went to, there was a reserved seat with my name on it; it was a luxurious course. Our guide, Kala, was a native Hawaiian who could speak Japanese. Although it was supposed to be a Japanese course, once he realized I understood English, we ended up doing most of the tour in English.

I had a great experience!
During the bus drive to PCC there is a tour guide who is really good on entertaining the crowd while giving important information about Hawaii culture. As you arrive there you are greeted by the employees while checking-in.
After lunch (i've purchased a nice BBQ buffet) I started my tour, the guide was very friendly and took us to each village and we had the chance to participate of many cultural activities.
If you were not able to see all the presentations, don't worry, you can have a small demonstration of each Village during the Canoe Pageant.
If you have time, please check the Hawaiian Journey Theater, you will watch a beautiful movie about Hawaii. I was impressed by the size of the theater. There's also a Tram Tour around Laie town and you can visit the Temple.
By 5pm it starts the Dinner Luau. There is a lot of different options, and they were all delicious! After dinner there's the beautiful show "Ha: Breath of Life". It's a wonderful production!

We participated in the evening for our honeymoon. I chose the deluxe course because I had heard great reviews about the food. Perhaps I had high expectations, but there weren't that many dishes, and the food wasn't surprisingly delicious... However, there were items like unlimited crab and roast beef, which are not something you can easily find, so I was quite satisfied. It was also fun to try local dishes from each island.
The show was about an hour and a half long, with a storyline that made me tear up from the beginning. My husband was in tears too, haha. The fire dance was especially moving!
On the bus ride there, a student acted as our guide and shared various stories, so we were never bored. It was a bit far from Waikiki, but it felt like a little trip. The excellent service was impressive, just like in Japan.
Overall, I felt the price, including transportation, meals, and the show, was a bit high. I would be happier if it were a little cheaper.
ハネムーンにて、夜から参加しました。デラックスコースは料理が美味しいと口コミがあったので、デラックスにしました!期待しすぎたせいか、品数もそれほど多くなく、料理は驚くほど美味しいというわけではありませんでした…しかしカニやローストビーフ食べ放題など、なかなか食べられない物がありまぁ満足です。各島の郷土料理などもあり楽しかったです。
ショーは約1時間半たっぷりの内容で、ストーリーになっており序盤からウルウルしてしまいました。旦那も号泣してました笑
ファイヤーダンスは特に感動です!
行きのバスでは、学生がガイドとして、ずっと様々な話をしてくださり、飽きなかったです。ワイキキから少し遠いですが小旅行みたいでした。日本のような素晴らしい接客が印象的でした。

I had visited Hawaii several times, but I hadn't had the chance to go recently... This time, I participated because it was a trip with my mother. We took a different route than usual and headed to the Polynesian Cultural Center☆ I was surprised by how many people were there! The buffet was just okay... (since we participated in the standard option). However, the show was moving!! As the sun set and the lights came on, it created a wonderful atmosphere. Watching the staff dance while sweating made the two hours fly by❤ I thought the night was better than during the day. I'm planning to come back to Hawaii next year, and I want to bring some friends with me then!
