All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

It was great that the guide entertained us and explained how the sandbar was formed.

However, when I stood on the sandbar and looked around, I was surprised to find it was just like, "Oh, so this is what it looks like." I felt that it would be better to see it from above, like in a helicopter, but I had expected that, and I wanted to land on the sandbar at least once.

ガイドさんが楽しませてくれて、サンドバーの作られ方とか説明とかも聞けて良かったです。

でもサンドバーはその上に立って見ると、「ふーん、こんな感じなんだ」って言う感じだったのが意外だった。ヘリとかで上から見るのが良いものなのだと感じたけれど、予想はしていたし、一度はサンドバーに上陸してみたかったから

The weather was cloudy, and there was no sunlight, so it didn't turn out to be what I was expecting. Checking the weather is important before going.

天気が曇りで、太陽の光がなかったので、あまり期待していたものにはなりませんでした。
行くときは、天気のチェックが重要です。

The sandbar was a bit different from the photos, with a depth reaching from the thighs to the waist. It seems that the water depth changes depending on the season and weather.

At the sandbar, you can walk around and take photos! Our guide also took some pictures for us!

After that, only those who wanted to went snorkeling. The snorkeling spot is a short walk from the sandbar, but I was surprised by how suddenly the water got deep (laughs). Unfortunately, we didn't see any turtles while snorkeling.

After snorkeling, we had lunch, which was very delicious! The meat, in particular, was exquisite!

During lunch, a turtle came close to the boat, and we were able to see it up close! There were also many pufferfish around!

Finally, we got to do some stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), and it was a lot of fun. Thank you!

サンドバーは写真とは少し違い、太もも～腰丈くらいまでの深さがありました。季節や天気によって水深が変わるようです
サンドバーでは歩いて写真など撮れます！ガイドさんにも撮っていただきました！
その後、希望者のみシュノーケルをします。シュノーケルスポットは、サンドバーから歩いていくのですが、いきなり水深が深くなりびっくりしました(笑)シュノーケルでは亀さんは見れませんでした
シュノーケル後、ランチとなりますが、とても美味しかったです！特にお肉、絶品でした！
ランチ中に、亀さんが船の近くに来てくれて、間近で見れました！フグさんもたくさん居ました！
最後にSUPもできて、とても楽しめました、ありがとうございます！

This was my second time participating. Both times, the water level was about knee-high, but I was aware of that since I checked the tide information on this page from VELTRA. My husband was seriously playing volleyball at the sandbar, haha. Snorkeling was a battle against the fear of entering the ocean without being able to touch the bottom after turning 50, but once I saw the beauty underwater, I truly understood the high ratings in the reviews. People over 50 (and even older) can enjoy this too!

2度目の参加でした。
2回とも膝上くらいの水位でしたが、それはきちんと潮の満ち引き情報をVELTRAさんのこのページで確認していたので、承知の上でした。
夫はサンドバーでバレーボールをガチでやっていました笑
シュノーケリングは、50を過ぎて足がつかない海に入る恐怖との戦いでしたが、いざ海の中を見ると感動的な美しさで、レビューの高さを実感しました。
50オーバーの人も（いやもっと上の人もいました）楽しめますよ！

The weather was great, and the staff were amazing. The participants were all Japanese and seemed a bit reserved, but they really got into the spirit! The water was very clear, and it was a miraculous day where I got to see sea turtles, dolphins, and even seals! The scenery I saw that day is still etched in my mind; it was such a wonderful memory!

お天気も良く、スタッフの皆さんも最高でした。参加者は日本人ばかりで、大人しい様子でしたが、盛り上げてくださりました！
透明度も高く、ウミガメにもイルカにも、そしてアザラシにも会えるという奇跡の日！！
その日に見た景色は
今でも脳裏に焼きついて離れないほど
素敵な思い出です！

I was expecting it to be a bit clearer, so I was somewhat disappointed, but I thoroughly enjoyed my first experience on a submarine.

もう少し鮮明に見えると、思っていたので少々期待はずれのところがありましたが、初めての潜水艦堪能できました。

The crew was really attentive to the guests, and I thought it was impressive how they managed everything on the ship despite the challenges.

I couldn't see any sea turtles, so I definitely want to see them next time I come.

クルーの皆さんがすごくお客さんの事を見ていて、船の上で大変なのにすごいなと思って見ていました。

ウミガメが見れなかったので、次来た時は是非見たいです。

It was very beautiful, and I was able to observe the seabed slowly. Along the way, I also saw sea turtles and many fish, which made me satisfied.

The boat to the submarine was very rocky, and I ended up feeling seasick. On the way back, we stopped on the water for about 10 minutes before heading to the port for photo sales, which made me feel sick again.

Overall, I was satisfied with the experience that I wouldn't normally have.

とてもきれいでゆっくりと海底を観察できました。
途中ウミガメやたくさんの魚も見ることができ、満足です。

潜水艦までの船がとても揺れたため船酔いをしてしましました。
帰りの船で写真の販売の為、港へ向けて出発するのに10分前後海上で
停船したため酔いました。

総合的に普段できない体験ができ満足です。

There's no need to worry about seasickness! Since we're in the bay, it doesn't rock at all.

The sandbar was cloudy at first, but it cleared up along the way and was absolutely beautiful.

After that, we were able to see several sea turtles during the turtle watching!

Snorkeling was also no problem for beginners! (You can practice at the sandbar.)

The hamburgers for lunch are delicious, so I highly recommend them!

船酔いの心配はありません！
湾の中なので全然揺れません。

サンドバーは曇りでしたが途中で晴れてめっちゃきれいでした。

そのあと、ウミガメウォッチでは数匹見ることができました！

シュノーケリングも初心者でも問題なくでしました！
（サンドバーで練習ができます）

お昼のハンバーガーも美味しいのでおすすめです！

There are many large slides that you can't experience in Japan, and the children were thrilled and didn't have enough time. I think it's a good idea to reserve a cabana seat for families or during busy times.

日本では体験できないような大掛かりなスライダーが沢山あり、子どもたちは大喜びで時間が足りませんでした。
家族連れや混雑する時はカバナ席を予約しておくといいと思います。

There was more water than I expected, but it was a very enjoyable experience as I got to see many fish and turtles while snorkeling. I was able to create wonderful memories with my family, thank you very much.

思っていたより水があったのですが、シュノーケリングでたくさんの魚や亀が見れてとても楽しい体験でした。
家族で楽しい思い出を作る事が出来ました、ありがとうございました。

We were lucky to arrive at Sandbar just as the tide was going out, and we were able to see some incredibly beautiful scenery. While snorkeling, we spotted fish and swimming sea turtles! The water was a bit murky. Even for those who can't swim, the regular sea turtles were swimming close to the boat, so we were able to see them a lot. A few things to keep in mind: it can be cold, so bring a jacket, bring a waterproof case for your smartphone or camera, and take measures against seasickness. I got a little nauseous on the bus ride there, so I bought a seasickness band on the boat.

サンドバーは運良くほぼ潮が引いた時に来れて、とても美しい景色を見ることができました。シュノーケリングでは魚や泳ぐウミガメが見れました！海は少し濁っていました。泳げない方でも、常連のウミガメが船の近くで泳いでくれてたくさん見ることができていました。注意点としては寒いので上着を持参、スマホやカメラの防水ケース持参、酔い止め対策をすることです。私は行きのバスで少し酔ってしまったので、船上で酔い止めバンド購入しました。

After our wedding ceremony in Hawaii, we participated with ten family members. I originally joined on the recommendation of an acquaintance, but it was even more enjoyable than I expected! Our guide was Japanese and very entertaining, and we thoroughly enjoyed the scenery as well as snorkeling. We got to see sea turtles up close!

I didn't have high expectations for the BBQ on the boat, but it was actually quite delicious! There was an all-you-can-eat selection of meat, fruit, and rice, and the brownie for dessert was also tasty.

It was a great time for everyone, from their 20s to 60s. Thank you very much!

ハワイ挙式の後、両家10名で参加しました。
元々知り合いの勧めで参加したのですが、期待以上に楽しめました！
ガイドさんも日本の方で面白く、景色はもちろんシュノーケリングも存分に楽しめました。ウミガメもものすごく近くで見れました！
また、船の上でのBBQはあまり期待していなかったのですが普通に美味しかったです！お肉もフルーツもご飯も食べ放題で、デザートのブラウニーも美味しかったです。
20〜60代みんなが楽しめる時間になりました。
本当にありがとうございました！

This time, we participated as a family of four with two children. I thought we might not be able to do many activities since my 3-year-and-10-month-old son is really mischievous and my 1-year-and-5-month-old daughter has just started walking, so I couldn't take my eyes off them. However, the staff were really wonderful with the kids and played with them, which encouraged other tour guests to join in as well. Thanks to that, my husband and I were able to take turns snorkeling, and we even encountered a sea turtle!

We played in the sea a bit too much, so we couldn't enjoy the BBQ as leisurely as we would have liked, but it was really delicious!

If I had to mention something, it would be that the weather was cloudy and a bit chilly. If the weather had been better, it would have been even more amazing!

My son wants to see Kaz again, who played so well with him, so if we have the chance, we would definitely like to participate again!

今回2人の子連れで、家族4人での参加でした。
3歳10ヶ月の息子が本当にやんちゃ盛りな上に1歳5ヶ月の妹が歩き始めて動くようになったので、目が離せく、アクティビティはあまり出来ないかもなぁ…と思っていましたが、スタッフの方々が子供を本当に可愛がってくれて、遊んでくれたので、その流れで他のツアー客の方々も一緒に遊んでくれました☆
お陰で主人と交代でシュノーケリングも出来ましたし、海亀とも遭遇出来ました☆
海で遊びすぎて、BBQはあまりゆっくり食べられませんでしたが、とっても美味しかったです！！

しいて言うなら、お天気が曇っていて少し寒かった事かな！
天気が良ければもっと最高でした！

息子が、1番仲良く遊んでくれたカズさんにまた会いたいそうなので、機会があったらまた是非参加したいです！！

The food was exceptional especially considering the number of people being served. The staff was polite and very accommodating. The young entertainers interacted with the crowd and performed in their traditional attire. We came back to the port with a bang, singing and dancing. I would definitely recommend this cruise. My only disappointment was that the harbor/tower area used to be filled with shops. It was our last night on the island and it would have been nice to purchase those last minute sovereigns. Now it’s just empty with a few eateries.

The Captain and her crew were beyond friendly! The whole experience was amazing, from the cruise to the sand bar, the food, the turtle watching and the snorkeling. Absolutely amazing. Would highly recommend this experience!

- All three attractions were amazing. The location tour, jungle exploration, and historical explanations were all interesting and easy to understand. While looking at other attractions, I definitely wanted to participate in the interactive ones.
- The movie location tour was very intriguing, as there were various filming sites besides Jurassic Park.

・三つのアトラクション全て最高でした。ロケ地巡り、ジャングル探検、歴史　的なもの全て説明も面白く、分かりやすく良かったです。他のアトラクショ　ンを見ていると、参加型で是非参加したいアトラクションでした。
・映画ロケ地巡りではジェラシックパーク以外にも色々な撮影があったという　ことで非常に興味深かったです。

- The guidance from the female staff was delightful and enjoyable.
- I was able to see sea turtles at the sandbar, which was amazing.
- Snorkeling might have been the most fun; it felt like swimming inside an aquarium, and it was incredibly enjoyable to be so close to the fish.
- The BBQ on the boat was about what I expected, but the service was attentive and good.
- It was a tour I would like to join again next time.

・女性担当者の案内が愉快で楽しかったです。
・サンドバーではウミガメも見れたし最高でした。
・シュノーケリングが一番楽しかったかも、まるで水槽の中を泳いでいるよう　で、魚が手に取れる感じで非常に楽しかったです。
・BBQは船の上なのでこんなもんかな、という感じでしたが接客が丁寧でよ　　かったです。
・次回も参加したいツアーでした。

I felt very safe with the Japanese staff at the center. The locals were also kind and communicated in English, so I was able to enjoy everything without any inconvenience, even though I only speak Japanese! The hamburger on the boat was the most delicious I had on this trip (^ ^). There was plenty of free time, and they clearly communicated important information, so I was able to relax and fully enjoy the beautiful sea! I was lucky to swim with a sea turtle. There was a shuttle to the Alohilani Hotel, and on the way back, they guided us as well.

日本人が中心でとても安心しました。現地の人も英語で優しく対応して下さったので、日本語しか分からない中、何も不自由なく楽しむことができました！
船上でのハンバーガーはこの旅行で1番美味しかったです(^ ^)
自由な時間が多く、注意事項等もしっかり伝えてもらえたので
ゆっくりくつろぎながらきれいな海を満喫できて最高でした！運良くウミガメと一緒に泳げてよかったです。
アロヒラニホテルまで送迎があり、帰りはガイドもしながら送っていただけました。

- Taste of Kualoa Tour
In the vast nature, with easy-to-understand explanations from a Japanese guide, I was able to see various plants and also enjoyed some tastings. Since various movie filming locations and sets are still preserved, it was a lot of fun!

- Jungle Expedition & Kualoa Legends Tour
Riding in the back of a large jeep-like vehicle, we went through the jungle, which was quite thrilling. The gate from Jurassic World was there, and there were even claw marks left by the Indominus Rex on the wall! I was able to touch on history and had a very valuable experience.

- Movie Filming Locations & Ranch Tour
In the midst of wonderful scenery, the landscapes I saw in the movies spread out before me, and I was very moved! The fallen tree where Dr. Grant and the children hid from the approaching dinosaur in Jurassic Park is still there, and you can take commemorative photos there! I also got to see famous movie scenes and sets from Jurassic World and King Kong, making it the best experience!

・テイスト オブ クアロア ツアー
広大な自然の中を日本人ガイドさんのわかりやすい説明で、様々な植物を見ることができ、また試食も楽しめました。様々な映画のロケ地やセットもそのまま残されているので、とても楽しめます！

・ジャングル探検＆クアロア伝説ツアー
大型のジープのような車の荷台に乗り、ジャングルの中を抜けていくので、迫力があります。ジュラシックワールドに登場するあのゲート、そして、壁にはなんとインドミナス・レックスがつけた爪の傷跡もしっかり残されています！歴史にも触れられ、とても貴重な経験ができました。

・映画ロケ地＆牧場ツアー
素晴らしい景色の中、映画で見たあの風景が目の前に広がっていて、すごく感動しました！ジュラシックパークでグラント博士と子どもたちが、迫りくる恐竜から逃げるときに身を隠したあの倒木がそのままあり、そこで記念写真を撮ることができます！他にもジュラシックワールドやキングコングなど、有名な映画のあの景色やセットを見る事ができて最高の体験でした！

It was a course without Japanese guidance (although it seems there is Japanese guidance available through headphones, which I didn't use), but I understand enough English, so it wasn't a problem. Everyone else was foreign, and I was a bit fed up with the number of Japanese people in downtown Honolulu, so it was nice. There was a sense of universality when the Canadian child next to me asked, "Where's Nemo?" Seeing the submarine surface near the boat was exciting. I enjoyed seeing beautiful fish, rays, and turtles (it would have been even better if sharks had appeared), and it was my first experience diving into the ocean from a submarine, which was interesting. It was a smaller submarine with small windows, but I think it was sufficient.

日本語案内ではない時間のコースでしたが（ヘッドフォンで日本語案内はあるようだが使用せず）そこそこ英語がわかるのでまあ問題なし。
自分達以外は外国人で、ホノルルの街中が日本人だらけで少しウンザリしていたのでちょと良かったです。
隣のカナダ人の子供がニモはどこ？という言葉に世界共通感がありました。
沖で船の近くに潜水艦が浮かんでくる様子はウキウキしました。
きれいな魚やエイやカメがみられて楽しかったですし（サメでも出て来たらもっと良かったけど）、潜水艦で海に潜るという体験が初めてのことで面白かったです。
窓の小さい方の潜水艦でしたが十分だと思います。

This is my second time participating. Last time, I was satisfied with snorkeling, but this time, after a delicious meal, I also tried stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). The staff were kind and supportive, and I was able to stand up somehow.

2度目の参加です。
前回はシュノーケリングで満足でしたが、今回は美味しい食事の後、SUPにも挑戦しました。
スタッフさんが優しく支えてくれてなんとか立つことが出来ました

The weather was clear! I was picked up near the hotel and took a bus to the location. The crew members were very kind and there were many happy people, which made it enjoyable! The lunch on the water was amazing!!! The sandbar we aimed for was breathtakingly beautiful. It was about thigh-deep, but that was no problem! We also saw many sea turtles before heading out to snorkel. It became a wonderful memory!!

天気も快晴！ホテル近くでピックアップしてもらいバスに乗って現地へ。
クルーの皆さんはとても優しくハッピーな方がたくさんで楽しめました！水上でのランチ最高です！！！
お目当のサンドバーには息を飲むくらいの綺麗さ。太ももくらいの高さでしたが問題ありません！ウミガメもたくさん見かけたりしてからシュノーケルへ。 最高な思い出になりました！！

We were blessed with great weather, and it turned out to be a wonderful day!! We walked along the sandbar surrounded by sea turtles!! The staff were very friendly, and above all, the lunch was incredibly delicious ^_^!!!

天気にもめぐまれとても素敵な一日になりました！！
ウミガメにかこまれながらサンドバーを歩きました！！
スタッフの方々もとても気さくで、なんといってもランチがすごく美味しかったです^_^！！！

Great tour to do if you are not familiar with Oahu. Our driver, tour guide, lunch server etc. was outstanding. Very informative and patient. I highly recommend Oahu Nature Tour. Our tour guide was Monique in case you have a choice. We attended this tour on 28 May 2019. Lunch was included at Fumi's Shrimp Shack

There were Moai statues, but it was disappointing that we weren't allowed to get off the bus. Also, basically, if you sit on the right side of the bus, you can enjoy various views. Sitting on the left side (driver's side) might be disappointing for those who want to take photos.

モアイ像がありましたが、バスから下ろしてくれなかったのは残念でした。
また、基本的にバスの右側の座席に座ると色々な景色を楽しめます。左側（運転席側）に座ると写真を撮影したい人にとっては残念かも

This was a GREAT sunset cruise - food was good, drinks were good (and they did not even make you give in your drink tickets so not trying to get more out of you) and the show was good.

Just one thing to improve upon:
1. Seating took way too long. You know who is coming so you should have assigned seating and it should be really quick - not making people stand in stairwell for 20 minutes just to get seated

I was supposed to be picked up at the hotel, but since no car arrived at all, I called customer service. They said they left because they couldn't meet me at the designated spot. I was told to take a taxi, but I was informed that it was too late and asked if I could change the date instead. I was at a loss for words due to their attitude, especially since I was looking forward to the fireworks.

It's puzzling why we couldn't meet at the designated spot, which was just the hotel parking area and not that large. The hotel staff had also told me that it was fine to wait on this bench, so I wasn't late for the meeting time.

I was able to change the date and board the boat the next day. The scenery and the food were both very good.

ホテルにピックアップに来てくれるはずが、全然車が来ないのでカスタマーサービスに電話したら、待ち合わせ場所で会えなかったから行ってしまったとのこと。タクシーで来てください、あーでももう時間が間に合わないですね、日にち変更できますけど？と素っ気なく言われました。花火を楽しみにしていたのに、向こうの対応に言葉が出ませんでした。
待ち合わせ場所はホテルの駐車スペースでそんなに広い場所でもないのに、なぜ会えなかったのか不思議でたまりません。ホテルのスタッフにも、このベンチで待っていればいいよと言われたので、こちらが待ち合わせの時間に遅れたわけでもありません。
翌日に変更してもらって船に乗ることはできました。景色も料理もとてもよかったです。

After being picked up at the hotel in Waikiki, we traveled for about an hour in the van to the North Shore. If you're worried about motion sickness, I recommend taking some medication beforehand.

Once we arrived, we were guided to the sandbar by a humorous guide and crew members.

If you wish to go snorkeling, you'll receive a brief lesson and wear a life jacket before walking a few meters from the sandbar and swimming out into the ocean.

It was enjoyable to see sparkling fish and turtles swimming leisurely around the sandbar. During the boat ride to and from the location, we learned about the history of the sandbar and Hawaii, which was very educational.

If I have the chance to travel to Hawaii again, I would love to participate in this activity once more.

ワイキキのホテルでピックアップしてもらったあとにノースショアまで行くのでおおよそ1時間くらいはバンに揺られます。
心配な方は酔い止めを飲んでおくのが良いかと思います。

現地に着いてからはユーモラスなガイドとクルーの方にサンドバーを案内してもらえます。

シュノーケリングを希望する場合は簡単なレッスンを受けて救命胴衣を着用した上でサンドバーから数m歩いて沖を泳ぎます。

キラキラとした魚やサンドバーを悠々と泳ぐ亀を見ることが出来て楽しかったです。
行き帰りの船上ではサンドバーが産まれた経緯やハワイの歴史を説明して貰え、勉強になりました。

次にハワイに旅行することがあってもまた、参加させて貰いたいなと思います。

We participated as a couple. Since it was an afternoon tour, the water level seemed a bit high, reaching about waist height. It was sunny and beautiful, but... We spotted turtles several times as they were being fed. The lunch was a buffet style and delicious.

夫婦で参加しました。午後のツアーだったので、水位は少し高かったみたいで、腰くらいありました。晴れててキレイではありましたが。。亀は餌付けされているので、何度も目撃ました。お昼ご飯は、バイキング形式で美味しかったです。
