Immerse yourself in Polynesian culture on this full-day excursion via air conditioned motorcoach that takes you on a 90-minute scenic drive through the breathtaking landscape of Oahu's lush windward side. En route, glimpse Queen Emma's Summer Palace, summer retreat of the wife of King Kamehameha IV. Take in stunning island vistas at the Pali Lookout. View the pineapple plantations of Wahiawa and the Dole Pineapple Pavilion. Travel the north shore, home of Oahu's famous surfing beaches. Visit the Polynesian Center, a 42-acre center dedicated to preserving the cultures and customs of old Polynesia. Stroll the center you'll find six different authentic island settings with dozens of fun-filled and informative demonstrations such as Tongan drumming, fire making, coconut tree climbing and traditional dances of Fiji, Hawaii, Aotearoa, Samoa, Tahiti and Tonga. Enjoy lunch on your own at a variety of food establishments in the Hukilau Marketplace. Your scenic return drive includes a view of Chinaman's Hat Island, so named because of its unique conical shape.
