My wife & I, (retired, early sixties,Canadians) visited Hawaii for the first time in October 2009. We thoroughly enjoyed our day at the Polynesian Cultural Center. The various cultural theme attractions were very good & some of the presentations were side splitting hilarious. Kudos to the young performers. We had purchased the Ali'i luau dinner package (about $88 US each)... more

During our 10 day stay in Hawaii in August 2209 we devoted one entire day to spending at The Polynesia Cultural Center, and so glad we did. It started off with a well organized shuttle ride form the Marriot Hotel on Waikiki to the centre, the tour guide on the bus was both entertaining and education, so much so that... more

We visited on Oct. 30, 2009 and loved the cultural center and the performance/show at night. They arranged a guide for us who speak Chinese and was very nice and helpful. He showed us around and took us to some shows in villages which were really worth of our time since we came to the center a little bit late.... more

The Polynesian Cultural Center was amazing! We learned so much about each of the Polynesian Countries. It took the whole day to discover the different villages representing each country. We learned so much about each culture and got to participate in so many activities from learning dances, to games and entertainment found in the country, to how they would cook.... more

The Polynesian Cultural Center Super Ambassador tour was fantastic. The personal touch and the information provided by the guide made the experience exceptional. The evening performance of "Ha, The Breath of Life" is a must. It is a must for anyones trip to Hawaii. more

I had to go to Honolulu on business and the only one available to go with me was my Mom. So I had to select things that she would like to do (she's in her 70's). The hotel suggested the Polynesian Cultural Center. I thought the price was kind of steep (more than $100 each which included transportation to/from). But... more

PCC has the best luau dinner and show on Oahu in my opinion. Theres a wide selection of food and the luau and the show is a huge production. I think its worth the money, even though it is pricey unless you are military or kamaiana (local). The daytime village activites are also fun. I dislike being herded around to... more

We went here for a the afternoon/evening on our honeymoon. We did the activities in the afternoon, the luau, and the show afterward. Like some other reviews said, this is by NO means a fully authentic museum but closer to a Disney-style amusement park. So the activities were a little cheesy and they certainly will trying to get cash from... more

Pros -- 1) Good canoe show in the afternoon. 2) Their new show - "HA - Breath of Life" is good considering most of them are students; definitely the most interesting feature in PCC. 3) Good if you have children or a whole day to kill. Cons -- 1) The guide in the PCC commute bus who kept yapping about... more
