Great cultural experience

My mom really wanted to see this. She worked with a friend whose family were ceremonial dancers. Although I felt it was kind of pricey, it was a must see experience.

Take it or leave it

Not really my taste. A bit boring if I’m honest and an hour was too long. But how they weren’t giddy and falling about the place, has me baffled.

Interesting, but not for everyone…

I’m kind of confused by all the 5 star reviews. There was nothing in the listing stating that it was going to be a religious ceremony. I expected something totally different. It was a hour long and you were not allowed to take pictures or video during the performance. They allowed it at the very end after the ceremony. For the value ($33 pp) I feel like it wasn’t worth it. I’m giving them 2 stars due to the travel agency being so accommodating with our last minute booking and the pick up and drop off from our hotel was great.

An interesting...

An interesting performance that seemed to want to present as authentic an experience as possible and not just something for tourists. We were given leaflets that explained the different aspects of the ceremony and their importance, before the music and dance began. The host requested no photos or videos during this stage which help focus the audiences attention on watching and enjoying rather than trying to get a perfect shot, though photos were then permitted after the main ceremony had ended so there was a good compromise for everyone. Overall an enjoyable and interesting cultural experience
