The guided tour tickets were sold out online, so we booked the package that included admission, the buffet and the show instead. Once we arrived, we decided to book a private tour and meeting our guide, Eli, turned out to be the best decision of our trip. He was so thoughtful and attentive throughout the entire tour and worked incredibly hard to make sure our family had the best experience. Eli was also incredibly kind to our three teenage children, taking the time to explain everything in detail and making sure they felt included and cared for. Because of him, our entire family had a wonderful and memorable experience. Every staff member we met was so kind and friendly, which made our day even more enjoyable. The HA: Breath of Life show was absolutely amazing and the perfect ending to a wonderful day. Thank you all for making our trip so special! ‍ MAHALO!! read more

This was a fabulous place to get an overall and interactive experience with all of the Polynesian cultures and heritages. If you go I highly recommend being there when it opens and the canoe show. The canoe show will give you a quick introduction to the different cultures and help you chose which ones you want to explore further. Each area discusses history and has interactive experiences like games (lots of fun), some food tasting (and purchases), history and replicas. When you arrive there are lots of open picnic tables and some really delicious food vendors and trucks. I liked the savory meat pies from the Kiwi truck. Save any shopping for after the luau as your waiter may present you with a 10% off coupon after dinner. We did the "pick your oyster" for a pearl at the pearl factory and it's a fun experience for under $20. Any jewelry you buy will be the costly part so consider waiting till you get back home to have it set at your hometown jeweler. We booked the full package which included a private guide which was a huge advantage. Your guide will descend from some sort of Polynesian culture and heritage and they can enhance your visit sharing their own experiences. There were also bonus amenities to this package which included a check in lounge with refreshing spa water and snacks, priority seating at all events and the first to be called up for the Luau dinner. The Breath of Life show is a little hokey, especially if you have seen many a Cirque Du Soleil show, but the fire dancers at the end made it worth the wait. We added the shuttle pick up to our package which was very convenient; both for parking and also how tired we were after a full day. Be sure to bring sunscreen, refillable water bottle, hat, sunglasses and a fan because most of the experiences are outdoors. Some of the mini theaters have ceiling fans but no air conditioning. There are some misting stations throughout the park, plenty of water filing stations and bathrooms where you can douse your head with water to help cool off (like I did 3 times) on hot and humid days. Our pass was good to return for the next three days but we didn't have time. It would have been worth it to experience the other villages but we wanted to spend our trip doing other stuff. read more

I've visited here before so we decided to skip the self-guided experienced to the 6 island villages, and only did the 'Luau Dinner & Ha Breath of Life' package. We booked online so we got a discount, the total being $136.32 per person. Even though we didn't visit the different island villages, we still got access to the Hukilau Markerplace. It's a bunch of vendor businesses outside the entrance so you can still buy food and chill at the tables. Everyone there was really friendly and helped us find the entrance for the luau (not a lot of signage so it was kind of confusing). They took pictures of us before we entered so that we can buy printed copies afterwards. I just asked one of the workers there to take it on my phone instead lol (the photographers aren't allowed to do that but the staff can). We had private table and a view of the luau show. When seated, everyone is served a Pina colada smoothie in a real pineapple! There's also unlimited soda (no alcohol is served at PCC). Our server was super friendly and accommodating. They call people by tables when lining up for the buffet. There's two buffet stations on each side. Overall, I thought the food was just okay. A lot of items were bland like the noodles and poke. My favorite items were the firecracker shrimps, Hulu Hulu chicken, and creme brûlée. The roasted pork had no flavor so you gotta mix it with the special sauce they serve lol. I was impressed at the dessert bar. They had ice cream, creme brûlée, cake, fruits, etc. Afterwards, we went to the theater for the Ha: Breathe of Life show. It's outside close the the Hukilau Marketplace on the right side. They don't have bathrooms in there so make sure you go beforehand. They do allow re-entries but you gotta show tickets so have it on your phone if you only have one designated person holding all the tickets. The show was spectacular! I've seen it both times and I still think it is one of the best live performances out there. They do crazy fire stunts and lots of singing and dancing. They offer plenty of free parking. It's like an hour drive from Waikiki so very far for majority of their guests. read more

Such a neat experience! Best value for money in Hawaii! We learn soo much about the culture and it was an amazing experience! We loved the day with each island and what they are all about. It's easy and not stressful to move about and get the full experience. The passport is so fun for children (you must ask for them at the front). The buffet is great. Neat to get to try all the foods! The show is a MUST! Make it a day! read more

Polynesian Cultural Center This is a review for my experience at the Polynesian Cultural Center. WORDS TO DESCRIBE the Polynesian Cultural Center: Enlightening, Innovative, Connected, Gratitude, Honor, Family, Heritage, Respect, Resilience Upon arrival, the Polynesian flags are displayed for all to see. You can feel the pride and presence of the different nations when you look at each flag waving proudly to greet you. Map/Islands/Activities: The center is huge! There are many activities and shows that you can experience. Each station I visited left me feeling so informed about the culture. You will be able to learn about the 6 island nations of Samoa, Aotearoa, Fiji, Hawaii, Tonga, and Tahiti. DO NOT MISS: Welcoming ceremony The hosts greet and welcome everyone with a display of music and dance showcasing the 6 nations. Wow! There was such beauty and love with every island performing their greeting to us. Mahalo! EXHIBITS I enjoyed: Rhythm of the Islands Coconuts "Tree of Life" Polynesian Football Hall of Fame The Polynesian Cultural Center is a MUST if you are visiting Hawai'i for the first time. You will be enlightened and inspired after learning about the beauty and culture of the Polynesian nations. I enjoyed learning about the history of family life, music, sports, and art at the exhibits. All of the uncles, aunties, and cousins working, showed so much genuine love and kindness when they were teaching me about their heritage. Your lessons were very uplifting! Hawai'i Mahalo Nui Loa! Maraming Salamt Po! read more

This is an amazing and well run place where you can experience cultures from across the islands of the sea. There are several different nations represented, including New Zealand, Hawaii, and Tahiti. It is staffed almost entirely by students from a local university, Hawaii and natives from these lands. They had multiple activities and presentations to teach you about their cultures. They can't get any more authentic than this, as the makers of Moana came here to research the movie. There fire dancer show ha the breath of life is amazing, tying each stage of life to a different island culture. You don't wanna miss this if you are on Oahu. read more

I have gone to the Cultural Center every time I have visited the islands. This was my 3rd visit here. We went through the different villages with our guide. PK was our guide and he was wonderful, very knowledgeable and kind. My fiancé got sick from something he ate prior to our arrival and had to sit out part of the tour, but PK kept checking in to make sure he was doing okay. Over the years when I have gone to the cultural center the tours have differed slightly, one of the most interesting still is the tree climbing at the end of the day. We also attended the luau & Ha; the breath of life show. I love a traditional Luau and the Taro bread that they have - I can't find it anywhere in the mainland and it is one of my favorite things! Kalua Pork is one of my most favorite foods and I love watching them remove the pig from the emu and carve it on the buffet line. Ha, was one of the best evening shows I have seen thus far. It held our attention we were completely captivated. It was such a beautiful performance. I would highly recommend the show and the cultural center. It is wonderful to be able to learn about all of the Polynesian cultures and practices. It is such a unique experience. read more

Went to the Polynesian Cultural Center because my friend has never been to Hawaii, so I figured this is one of the places she should experience to learn a bit about the Polynesian Islands and the people and culture of the islands. We purchased the package that included a guided tour, canoe ride, Ali'i Luau, and evening show. As much as this package cost, it's good to know the price we paid helps to support the students at Brigham Young University. These students come from all over the world, so it's a wonderful opportunity for them. The PCC is huge, so there really isn't enough time to see and experience everything. After the tour it was time for dinner and then we had about an hour before the tour started. It's nice that your entry is good for 3 days, but if you're staying far from the PCC (as we are), it's difficult to return to finish seeing everything. We also booked the shuttle from Waikiki at $29 per person, round trip. For us, not liking to drive at night, it was worth it. We didn't get back to Waikiki until 10:30 p.m. read more

Worth the drive. They are closed one weekday which really wrecked my plans up so I rented a car and drove out there. It's a lovely drive, everything just seems low key in Oahu. Slower highway speeds...breathtaking views on the journey. Anyway the actual PCC, my visit was rushed but still fulfilling. I rode the boat, I toured and caught performances at 4 or 5 of the 6 island villages, talked to the people, had a drink, got tatted up, saw a wedding, fire show. The standout performance was short middle aged gentleman at Samoa, dude was hilarious. You could easily spend all day there especially if you buy the buffet and attend the Breath of Life show; which unfortunately wasn't included in my pass and they don't sell tickets to the show alone. Only downside... read more

For what you can learn about so many different cultures in the same day, this is an amazing packed day full of performances and activities. Lots of it can feel geared towards a younger audience but it is equally enjoyable to all ages. There aren't that many great food options in the park itself but there are some restaurants nearby. You could spend more than 1 full day here trying to fit everything in. There is always someone around to help with any questions you have about the center. The show at night has a grand accumulation of dances from various cultures weaved into a story. It lulls at time but still has some great moments and finishes with some amazing fire dancing at the end read more

I learned so much during my visit here, but before I say more, it's important to know that the Polynesian Cultural Center is operated by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Brigham Young University). Because of this, some aspects of clothing, politics, and history are presented through that lens. I highly recommend visiting the Bishop Museum first if you'd like a broader historical context before coming here. Our tour guide was amazing, knowledgeable, engaging, and, like many of the guides, a student volunteer from Brigham Young University. Throughout the day, we experienced cultural lessons, traditional games, storytelling, and interactive demonstrations, culminating in the final evening performance. Be prepared: it's a very long day, ending around 10 PM. Wear comfortable clothes and good walking shoes because you'll be on your feet quite a bit. Cameras are not allowed during the final show. The performance itself gave me Jesus Christ Superstar meets mega-church production vibes - but regardless of style, the storytelling and production quality are genuinely impressive. The luau is okay, plenty of food. There are plenty of gift shops and fun things to browse, and don't be shy about trying the food samples from the different island villages, be adventurous and taste everything you can! read more

We came by after seeing so many ads on our social media while staying in Hawaii for a week. After checking out, we saw a few stores that all somewhat served the same king of things like shirts, dresses, things that tourists would wear or gift. There's plenty of good restaurants to eat from, we ate from a food truck that was serving shrimp tacos. I also had an espresso drink from the North Shore crepe shop. The whole area seemed like it had better days but, looks to be losing a lot of foot traffic and visitors or tourists. Maybe I came in during a slow season of tourists during October/November but, it really wasn't bustling enough. We bought gifts for our families from the ukulele shop and some of the gift shops but, that was pretty much it, we kept it short because we had local staff walking around asking for surveys to be filled and we've done it once but, was approached 2 more times from others who didn't know we were already approached. read more

Well organized. Primarily run by college students. Great way to learn about the different Polynesian cultures. Different little village areas for each culture discussed. Areas to learn a skill. Everyone was kind and helpful. This is a large park similiar to Disneyland and there is lots of walking. There are rental scooters if needed for $50. We did the great banquet hall all you can eat... it's not a much food as it appears, but we were both able to find things we liked. Last but not least was the fire show. Great show, nice way to end the evening. While I enjoyed the experience and learned a lot about different historical cultures (Hawaiian, Tonga, Somoan, New Zealand... and I think I'm missing one more). I also felt uncomfortable. The kids are primarily students from Bringham Young a Morman college. The kids have to work at this center 19hrs a week during school year and 40 hrs during breaks. I believe in spring your way through school, but these kids are doing hard physical task and then completes day going the show. It felt a 'dog&pony show'. Some kids seemed to enjoy what they were doing, but not all. Most where displaying physical depictions of their ancestors life. Maybe I'm wrong, but I felt uncomfortable. read more

Bringing my kid here now felt like a full circle moment that made my heart feel so warm and fuzzy. So glad this time we could come with friends and enjoy the dinner and show! It was our first doing the special end to the night. Will definitely come back in the future to keep our traditions going! read more

Went here on vacation to learn about the different cultures we did the all day option and had transportation pick us up from our hotel .Our tour guide Nio was a sweetheart and took us around the cultural center, for the tour they take you to six different island nations and explain the different cultures and offer demonstrations. My favorite one was the island of Samoa where they had someone demonstrate climbing a 40 foot coconut tree. After we did our tours throughout the day, we went to a luau with performance and food. The array of food was nice you can try poi, roasted pig and multiple veggies sides. Also, at the end, we did watch the Ha: Breath of life show. While you were not allowed to record, The show is phenomenal. You can tell the students really put all the effort into learning the moves three months of training in fact, the fire blade spinning was nuts you have to go and see it. Only recommendation if you're gonna do the full day make sure you bring water and wear comfortable shoes. It was a bit hot so we were a little dehydrated also make sure to have some breakfast before you come. read more

The PCC is run by the Church of Latter Day Saints and most (if not all) the volunteers there are students at Brigham Young University. The center showcases various traditions and cultural norms of the 5 polynesian islands: Hawaii, Fiji, Tonga, New Zealand and Tahiti. There are different passes available but each gives you 3 day access. It's hard to cover all of things on offer in one day, but I still felt that one day was enough for us, as we wanted to explore other aspects of the island. The center does feel sort of like an amusement park and I can see the appeal for large groups or families with young kids. Lots of things to see and do to keep folks entertained. There is a marketplace just outside the entrance with shops and restaurants, and some snack bars inside. If you opt for the pass with the buffet then dinner is covered. I wasn't a huge fan of the budget food - the salad options were mediocre, it was mostly meat and fish that I felt could have been better seasoned. There were 2 or 3 vegetables on offer. Dessert options were great! The volunteers were all enthusiastic and friendly, except for our bus driver on the way back who was not very pleasant. Overall I would recommend if you have the time during your trip, but the island itself has so much to see and explore that you wouldn't be missing out if you couldn't make it here. read more

What an awesome way to spend the day on the north side of Oahu. We were picked up by a tour bus in front of Ross at 10am, had a guided ride up to the PCC. The driver threw in a few facts about the island and history on the way. We were dropped off and had some time to shop in the retail area up front, opted to eat lunch at the restaurant. Eventually we made our way over to the check in area. We had signed up for the Super Ambassador level admission, so we were paired up with an incredible private tour guide named Ezzy. She spent the next several hours showing us through a beautiful river show, and half a dozen villages that each showed history, activities, music, dance and traditions of different pacific islands. I just can't say enough to praise this young lady Ezzy. She made us feel like true Ohana, and provided so very much information and hospitality with our group. Wow! Thank you so so much Ezzy! All of these stops were informative, interactive and fun. Finally we were ushered to an incredible dinner and luau with a show. The food rocked, the performance was entertaining and fun. Not long after we headed over to the Ha! Breath of Life live show that was utterly incredible with an immersive story, with hula dancers, fire dancers and a production that was up there with some of the best Broadway shows we have ever seen. At the end we were invited over with the performers to take photos. At the end of of the night we had just a bit of time to do a final stop at the shops and market up front before boarding the bus and heading back to Waikiki beach on the bus where our group was originally picked up. Don't hesitate to book a full day here at the super Ambassador level. Wow! The best day in Oahu! read more

I was there with three other friends on 6/16/26, it was my first time. I am not so much into "history" but I found it very informative and you get to understand of what makes the Polynesian culture. I was under the impression that Hawaii was just all Samoans and that was it. I LEARNED A LOT! Is it worth it $200 per person, maybe not but I love the fact that this non-profit organization helps native Polynesian students from all over the USA/world study and they provide the tours and performances. Through this tour you get to know more of that specific student's life, experience and more. The Luau food/show was nice and the food had many options and delicious desserts/drinks. The final show "Breath of life" is a longer explanation from the initial canoe show at the beginning. I would not recommend this show for noise/visual sensible adults/children to go since I did saw some parents take out their crying child. Many blessings to all the staff here! read more

The polynesian cultural center was lively. Its a big shopping/eatery center. I realized that they do not sale alcohol beverages. There's option to purchase guided tours or self guided thru the 6 island villages to learn about the diffrent villages and its culture. There was plenty of parking space and clean bathrooms all around the center. We purchased the Aliʻi Lūʻau Package which includes the Aliʻi Lūʻau Buffet & live entertainment and gold level seating at "HĀ:Breath of Life" show. The package information are available online and could be purchased online as we did or you can purchase on site if there's space available. The tour starts at 12:30 and ended around 5:00 giving us some time to relax and do our own thing untill dinner at 6pm then the HĀ:Breath of Life" show at 7:30pm. We were in a guided tour with 13 people total. The tour was guided by a friendly staff member who was knowledgeable of the authentic cultures of 6 pacific islands which were hawaii, Fiji, Aotearoa, Somoa, Tahiti and Tonga. We were able to experience the unique cultures and traditions of each island through interactive activities, demonstrations, and performances. It was pretty interesting and informative. Dinner time was the buffet dinner with a luau show for approximately 1 hour. We were seated right away and brought a pineapple drink thats literally in a pineapple. The waiter were attentive and friendly throughout dinner time. I wasn't fond of the main course or the poke. There was not much flavor and tasted mediocre. I ebjoyed the fruits and deserts a little more. Our last show was the breath of life show. This show is known for its choreography, costumes, and fire dancing. Pictures and videoing was not allowed. However, I loved all the dances and costume changes and storyline of this show. The polynesian center is great for tourists to enjoy and learn about the cultures. read more

Amazing tour and experience of different cultures! Nahao (aka Beyoncé) went above and beyond my expectations of a tour guide. She took the time to memorize our names and get to know us. She personalized our experience and made it special to my family of 13. We took a wonderful tour through 6 islands and did many activities and watched wonderful shows. Out of all 6, Tahiti is my favorite, and Nahao would agree (not baised at all). After our wonderful tour, we were able to sit down and enjoy a wonderful buffet dinner with many different shows. The crispy garlic shrimp was my favorite dish, and dont even get me started on the gelato! Yumm!! And lastly, to end off the night, we watched the ha breath of life show. Which was amazing. The dudes literally sat on fire and spun it in the aid. Overall a great experience, being able to learn about the different cultures was a great time. If you enjoy history and yummy food, I would highly recommend this for you! read more

Amazing! I don't actually remember ever going to PCC since I live here but I'm so glad I did!! It was such a great experience and would highly recommend to anyone coming to visit! We had a friend visiting who had never been to Hawai'i before and wanted to go to a lu'au. I researched a few and decided on this one because I feel like it's one of the most well known. I joined the Ohana Club for discounts as well! 20% discount for Kama'aina and 15% for other tickets! The only thing was that there are so many options and I didn't really know what to choose. Which is also a plus but can also be a little confusing. It it's your first time, you should get tickets that cover everything. The island are where you're going to learn about some of the culture and get do to lots of activities, see demonstrations, play games, make music, taste food. There is really so much, you could spend all day! You should also get food at the lu'au. We did the Gateway buffet and were impressed with the amount of options and variety. We really liked it. The show Ha: Breathe of Life was really good. The performers are really amazing and it's a really beautiful show. All together, it was a great time and everyone is sooooo nice.

We booked the Aliʻi Lūʻau Package for $210 per person. The tour guide was really nice and accommodating. However, we were about 10 min late to every event he took us to. It looked like we finished every event on time but were always late to the next event. I'm not sure why that was the case. The location is beautiful and they show case the Islands of Polynesia in a great way. The luau food was just very mediocre. I'd rate the food a 3/5. I really enjoyed the unlimited pina coladas though (non-alcoholic). The "HA: Breath of Life" show was a 5/5. The actors and actresses were amazing. The live music was very moving. I enjoyed it a lot. You can even take pics with the performers after the show. read more

Upon arriving on the island, this was a significant stop on our Aloha Sunshine Tour, guided by Summer (she's amazing and gave us so many tips while we were there). Highly recommend this experience near the front of your time in the island in order to grasp the energy, practices and history of this special culture. Appreciated that this venue not only educates the public but also allows Polynesian individuals to participate in maintaining their practices & heritage. Incredible venue for ALL ages and really enjoyed the live performances, interactive activities, culinary sampling, and personable & joyous energy that radiated from all staff and performers.

There are soooo many more pictures and videos in my phone that I can't upload to Yelp...and even those don't do this place the justice it derserves. You are truly immersed in Polynesian culture.

The Islands were amazing! Don't miss the canoe show at 1pm because it only happens once a day! My kiddos loved all the activities and entertainment at each of the islands. The buffet was ok, it had lots of options but was super crowded. The HA show was not what I expected and I was confused and bored. I would say visit the Islands (it takes several hours) and skip the buffet and show. read more

It was great to walk through the center learning the history of all the island.

Definitely check out the place for the one time. They did say it could take 3 full days to get through all the activities. read more

Amazing in every respect. I have been to numerous luaus around the islands and you will never see anything better than the performances given at the PCC. The whole experience is magical. I couldn't get over the amount of food we received at the kuau and the show is bar none-over the top! My 24 year okd son sat choked up with tears. "It's so beautiful, he said." You will not find alcohol. But we don't drink and loved the clean, beautiful, family friendly atmosphere. Well done!!! read more

The Super Ambassador luau package with our own tour guide was a worthwhile upgrade! Our guide, Emma, walked us through the different countries within the village and made our day fun and interesting. We took a bus from our hotel in Waikiki where our driver recommended the lunch buffet. While it was good, don't do it! LOL! Get a small bite to eat and save your appetite for the big buffet at dinner! EVERYTHING was so delicious and tasty! I don't even have words for the actual show, Hale Ohana. Oh my gosh! The performance was so impressive and just beautiful. There were some very talented young people who did an amazing job of taking us through a journey of the of the Polynesian islands. I 100% recommend the PCC! The beautiful day there actually influenced my thoughts about returning to Hawaii in the future. Lovely place! read more
