Your tour begins in the beautiful island home of Hawaii, in the northern most point in the Polynesian triangle. With great courage and incredible navigational skills, the early Polynesian voyagers reached these shores using the stars and their knowledge of ocean currents.
The show starts with the Hula of Hawaii - quite simply poetry in motion. Elegant and refined, a hula dancer's movements flow with the music.
Next they journey to the land of the long white cloud, Aotearoa - New Zealand. It is home to the Maori people. Their culture is rich in song and dance, intertwined with strong oratory skills. You will notice their facial tattoos or moko. This was used to symbolize ones geneology and personal identity. The men perform for you the Haka, a war dance that was used to intimidate their enemies. Then, the women perform and exciting dance using poi balls which are used to imitate the actions and rythyms in nature.
 Go along to Tahiti, land of intrigue and romance, capturing the imagination, from the verdant majesty of its mountains rising out of the mist to the startling clarity of color in it's coral lagoons. Tahiti is considered by many as the image of Polynesia, and throughout it's history, Thaiti has beckoned explorers from around the world.
Sit back and enjoy the sensual swing of the hips and the pulsing rythym of the ancient drums, which combine to create a titillating dance performance.
Your evenings journey ends at Samoa, "the cradle of Polynesia". Literally the sacred center of it's fiery soul. The islands of Samoa reflect their age in a lush jungle shrouded paradise. Even today, thatched roof fales can be seen dotting the coastlines where island homes are open to nature and the island people to their hearts.
