All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

Tour was wonderful and our tour guide, Patrick was amazing! Thank you Patrick for sharing your knowledge and good humor.

Was really well done. Worth the money. Great entertainment and food.

I found information that the tide would be at 0.5 feet around the time of arrival, but in reality, the water level was quite high, making it difficult with children. The tour had a fixed departure time, but I thought it would be great if there were options set for the sandbar that allowed for walking on the beach. I understand that it's nature, so guarantees can't be made...

The tour guide and the bus driver were all very nice, and they provided a pleasant experience from departure to disbanding. The staff on the boat were also very kind to the children, so I was extremely satisfied with the staff overall.

潮の満ちひきを調べたら到着時間頃は0.5フィートという情報があったのですが、実際は越下くらいまでと水面が高くて子連れではなかなか大変でした。出発時間が固定されているツアーでしたが、サンドバーを「砂浜として歩ける」時間で設定したものがあれば価値があがるのになと思いました。自然のことなので確約はできないんでしょうけど。。。
ツアーのガイドさんやバスの運転手さんはみないい人で出発から解散まで気持ちよく対応いただきました。船上スタッフさんも子供たちにとても優しくして下さったので、スタッフさんに関しては大大大満足感です。

We had an amazing time. It was more then what we expected. From the tour bus to the food and great entertainment we never stopped smiling or laughing. I would recommend this to family and friends. My husband and I have been to a Luau before and this was the first time for our boys who are 13 & 11. They loved ever minute of it.

Excellent adventure, accomodating and friendly staffs.

We opted for the 5-star menu, and it was awesome. food was delicious, and service was fantastic. It was a terrific way to celebrate our anniversary.

The sea from the boat on the way there was very beautiful, and I was able to encounter a sea turtle. Once inside the submarine, I had an experience that was quite unique. I didn't encounter many fish, but I was glad to see the Atlantis seabed.

行くまでの船からの海がとても綺麗で、ウミガメにも出会えました。
潜水艦の中に入ってからはなかなか味わえないような体験をすることができました。
お魚にはあまり出会うことはできませんでしたがアトランティス海底を見ることができて良かったです。

I checked the low tide times in advance and went at the best time during my stay. The water was about ankle-deep, and the contrast of the sea was very beautiful. I also saw sea turtles.

前もって干潮の時間を調べ、滞在中一番いい時に行きました。
くるぶしくらいの深さで、海のコントラストがとてもきれいでした。
ウミガメも見れましたよ。

We had a wonderful evening. Food was great, entertainment was fun. Very helpful staff. Would recommend this to everyone.

The tour guide was very nice, but I wish they had informed us upfront that we needed wetsuits and that there would be various costs involved. I can't swim, so I just watched, but I ended up feeling nauseous, which was tough. I think it might be a bit difficult for non-swimmers.

ツアーの方がとてもいい方でしたが、最初にウエットスーツが必要とか、もろもろお金が必要だったので、最初に伝えて欲しいです。私は泳げないので、みてただけでしたが、酔ってしまい、辛かったです。泳げない人はちょっと無理かなぁ

I had a great time here during my last visit, so I made a reservation again. If I had to say something, it's a bit disappointing that the variety of all-you-can-eat BBQ lunch is still limited, but other than that, I really enjoyed it!

前回こちらで予約してとても楽しかったので再予約しました。
あえて言えばBBQランチ食べ放題の種類が相変わらず少ないことが残念ですが、それ以外は満喫できました！

The weather was nice, and I was able to see a lot of turtles. While playing at the sandbar, a turtle swam by just about a meter away from me, which was really lucky. Since I had a 5-year-old with me, we didn't go snorkeling and instead played in the shallow water. The captain and other staff members played with the kids and lent us stand-up paddles, floaties, and bodyboards, which made both the kids and adults very satisfied.

天候も良く、カメさんをたくさん見ることができました。
サンドバーで遊んでいると距離にして1メートルもないくらいをカメさんがスイスイ泳いでいて本当にラッキーでした。
5歳の子供もいたためシュノーケルには行かずに浅瀬で遊んでいると、キャプテンや他のスタッフの方が子供と一緒にあそんでくれたり、スタンダップパドル、うきわ、ボディボードを貸してくれて、子供も大人も大満足でした。

Thanks to the whole crew for showing us a good time as well as our visiting guests! We look forward to doing it again! Mahalo & Cheers!

There are a lot of Japanese people here, so it doesn't feel much like being abroad, but the facilities and concept are something you wouldn't find in Japan, and it was truly wild.

There are attractions that provide a thrill that's almost scary, and since it wasn't too crowded, I was able to fully enjoy both the thrilling rides and the more relaxed options (there's also a soothing hot spring area). The food is similar to what you find at Disney, so I wouldn't have high expectations.

I occasionally use optional tours when traveling abroad, and this one was quite cost-effective. I immediately recommended it to my friends after returning home.

I think I will go again when I visit Hawaii.

日本人が多めなので、あまり海外に来た感じがしないですが、
施設やコンセプトは日本にはない感じでまさしくワイルドでした。

怖いぐらいのスリルを感じるアトラクションもあり、そんなに混んでなかったので、
スリルあるものや、やんわり系（ゆったり温泉コーナーもあります）を思う存分満喫することができました。
食事はディズニーにあるようなものなので、あまり大きな期待はできないかなと。

海外でたまにオプションツアーを利用しますが、これはなかなかのコスパでした。
帰国してから、早速友達にお勧めしました。

また、ハワイに行ったら行くと思います。

It was a bit chilly, and the sea wasn't as shallow as I imagined, but I was able to have a great time playing in the shallow waters.

Instead of eating in the water, I had a hamburger inside the moving boat due to the strong winds. Additionally, the care and hospitality of the local staff were very impressive. The hot cocoa service after coming out of the sea and the guitar performance were excellent services.

I was able to see sea turtles properly, and feeding the fish allowed me to see them up close, which was interesting.

If the sea had been a bit warmer and there was no wind, it would have been a five-star experience!

やや寒い時期で海もそんなに浅くはなかったので、想像と違う部分がありましたが、
遠浅の海でしっかり遊べました。

海の中で食べるというより、風が強く移動の船の中でハンバーガーを食べました。
また、添乗員の現地スタッフの方々の気遣い、ホスピタリティはとても良く感じられました。
海から上がった後のホットココアサービスやギター演奏などは、とてもよいサービスでした。
ウミガメはちゃんと見られたし、魚の餌付けにより魚を間近で見られたのも、
面白かったです。

もう少し海が暖かくて、風がなければ、星５ですね～

This was my first overseas trip☆ I came to meet dolphins! I have dived many times in Okinawa, but this was my first time on such a fun tour! It seemed like the timing was perfect for seeing dolphins, as they came right up to my feet multiple times, and I was so moved ( ⸝⸝•௰•⸝⸝ ). And then! A sea turtle!! I was very surprised to see it swimming close enough to touch ('ﾛ' ). All the divers and the captain were funny and kind, and in the end, we all got to dance the hula together, which was so much fun!! I even got to meet a mermaid!? (laughs) Next time I come to Hawaii, I’ll definitely ask Dolphin University again ( ˆoˆ )/

初めての海外旅行☆イルカに会いたくて来ました！沖縄では何度もダイビングの経験はありますが、こんなに楽しいツアーは初めてでした！イルカが見れたのもとってもいいタイミングだったみたいで何度も足元に来てくれて感激でした( ⸝⸝•௰•⸝⸝ )そして！海亀ちゃん!!手が触れれる距離まで泳いでてとても驚きました('ﾛ' )ダイバーの皆さんも船長さんも皆さん面白くて優しくて最後はみんなでフラも踊れて楽しかったです!!マーメイドにも会えたし！？（笑）次ハワイに来た時もイルカ大学さんにお願いします( ˆoˆ )/

My son and his wife participated in a tour for the first time in Hawaii. As for us parents, it was our second time joining. Once again, we were very satisfied. I'm glad we invited our son and his wife. We plan to join this tour again next year as a group of four. The sandbar was amazing!

息子夫婦は、初めてハワイであり、初めてのツアー参加でした。親夫婦は、二度目の参加。今回も、大満足でした。息子夫婦を誘って良かったと思っている。来年も四人でこのツアーに参加するつもりである。サンドバーは、素晴らしー！

Informative and emotional experience on that day that will be remembered in infamy.
Every one should endeavor to make this trip at some point in their lives.

Almost all participants were Japanese. The guide was also Japanese and very friendly, which was great. They offered GoPro rentals, and if you have a camera, they will take pictures for you. Since it was our honeymoon, having someone take photos of the two of us was appreciated. However, it's natural that those who borrowed a GoPro were prioritized for photos. We didn't rent one, but they still approached us to take pictures.

I recommend checking the sandbar's appearance based on the tide and time. By the way, I couldn't make a reservation for the morning of the day when the sea level drops below zero a week in advance.

参加者はほぼ全員日本人でした。ガイドさんも日本人で気さくだった為良かったです。
ゴープロの貸し出しもありましたし、カメラを持ってれば写真を撮ってくれます、新婚旅行なので誰がが撮ってくれる2人の写真はありがたいです。ただ、当然ですがゴープロを借りた人の方が優遇して撮ってくれます。自分たちは借りてませんが普通に声を掛けてくれます。
サンドバーは、潮位と時間で姿が違う為調べる事をオススメします。ちなみに、海抜0を割る日の午前は1週間前で予約が取れませんでした。

The tour guide spoke only in English, but it was fine since we just had to follow along. It was a standard plan, but we were able to see quite closely. There was a lot of talking, so I think it would have been more enjoyable if I understood English better. The fire dance was impressive with a large crowd. The food was typical buffet fare, and the only traditional Hawaiian dish was kalua pork. If you're not specifically looking for Hawaiian cuisine, it was enjoyable enough.

ツアーガイドは英語のみですが、付いていくだけなので問題はありませんでした。スタンダードプランでしたが、結構近くで見れました。トークが多いですので、英語が解ればより楽しめたと思います。ファイアーダンスは大勢で迫力がありました。料理は一般的なビュッフェ料理で、ハワイ伝統料理はカルーアポークくらいでした。ハワイ料理が目的でなければ、十分楽しめる内容でした。

We participated during our honeymoon. Since neither of us speaks much English, having a Japanese guide was very helpful. Also, it was nice that the local staff spoke clearly, possibly because many Japanese people were participating.

As for the content, we were able to see turtles, beautiful corals, and colorful fish, which made us very satisfied.

However, it was unfortunate that the weather on the day was very cold due to strong winds and rain.

ハネムーン中に参加しました。
２人とも英語がほとんど出来ないので、日本語ガイドが付いているのは、大変助かりました。
また、多くの日本人が参加しているのもあってか、現地スタッフも分かり易く話してくれて良かったです。

内容としては、亀を見ることも出来ましたし、綺麗なサンゴ、色とりどりの魚達を見ることが出来大変満足しました。

ただ、当日の天気が風が強くて、雨も降ったりなど、非常に寒かったのが残念でした。

This was a well organized tour. Bus driver talked about the island the entire trip there and back. She took us through different parts of the island and explained things about the different trees, island history and even some museum stops we could make our selves on the island. We knew exactly what to do when we arrived at Peral harbor. The experience there was a somber one. As expected. Great tour. I will recommend this one to others for sure.

What a great experience. The buss was right on time. The driver was funny and knowledgeable. She talked about the island as we drove to the Sea Life center. The Laura was very well organized, the setting was amazing. Made you feel like you were miles from anywhere. The show and culture was perfect. The fire dancers were my favorite. Food! Wow, very well done. I highly recommend this Laura. We were not disappointed, I actually figured these thing are touristy and would not have much Culture in the program. Not this one. It's great I thought.

From breathtaking Hanauma Bay to the Byodo Temple and Pali Lookout, this tour was captivating. Our driver/guide was excellent. Both of our tours by Enoa were outstanding. Pickups and tours were on time. Very reasonable fees! Highly recommend Ventura!

I participated in the morning session. I was picked up at the hotel. Most of the participants were honeymoon couples. Upon arriving at the port and heading to the sandbar by boat, we went turtle watching. There were so many sea turtles that I couldn't believe it!

After arriving at the sandbar, we took photos and went snorkeling. The sea was truly beautiful and mesmerizing. However, it was a bit cold since it was in the morning.

Afterward, we enjoyed sandwiches and snacks made by the tour guide on the boat. The light meal after coming out of the water tasted delicious. We arrived back at the hotel around 11:30. I was able to use my time meaningfully!

朝の部に参加しました。ホテルまで迎えにきてもらいました。参加者のほとんどがハネムーンのカップルでした。港に着いて船でサンドバーへ向かう途中、ウミガメウォッチング。こんなにたくさんいるのか！というほどたくさんのウミガメが見えました！
サンドバーに到着し、写真撮影やシュノーケリングをしました。海が本当に綺麗でうっとりしました。
ただ午前だったので少し寒かったです。
その後は船上で添乗員さんの作ってくれたサンドイッチとスナックをいただきました。海からあがったあとの軽食は美味しく感じました。
ホテルに着いたのは１１時半頃。有意義に時間が使えました！

We had a great time!

We participated as two couples in our late 40s. We joined with transportation, unlimited drinks, and a one-day pass.

We were picked up at the hotel and received explanations from a guide who was fluent in Japanese. After a few pickups, we arrived at the location in about 30 minutes from Waikiki. As we had been informed beforehand, a DVD explaining safety precautions in Japanese was playing in the car, and we had no trouble using the lockers.

When we headed to the attractions, I couldn't stand the heat of the ground barefoot, so I quickly returned to the locker to get my Crocs. Since you can't participate in the attractions while wearing sandals, I left them nearby (there were plenty of places to put them).

All the attractions were fun, but the slopes and stairs were quite tough. For the rubber boat, you have to carry it up yourself, so it's a chance for the men to show off.

I opted for the unlimited Surf Rider for an additional $5 (you can sign up at the information desk after entering). Personally, I found this to be the most enjoyable. It was my first time, and I was worried it might turn into a hilarious disaster like what I saw on TV with the Ungirls, but even a guy in his 40s could do it fairly normally—surprisingly easy? I recommend it.

My wife was really into the Shaka. It's a two-person attraction where you sit facing each other, so if you love thrill rides, you'll enjoy sitting in the back where you can see the ground.

いやー楽しかったぁ

40代後半の夫婦２カップルで参加しました。
送迎+ドリンク飲み放題+１日パスで参加しました。

ホテルでピックアップしてもらい日本語の達者なガイドさんから説明を受け、数カ所のピックアップをへてワイキキから30程度で現地に到着しました。事前の話で聞いていた通り車内では日本語の注意事項の説明DVDが流れ、ロッカーの使い方も迷わずできました。

いざアトラクションに向うも裸足で行ったらあまりの地面の暑さに耐えられず、ロッカーにクロックスを取りにすぐ戻りました。アトラクションはサンダルを履いたままではできないので、アトラクションの近くで脱いで置いときました。（いっぱい置いてありました）

どのアトラクションも面白いのですが、坂道と階段が結構きついです。ゴムボートはセルフで上まで運ぶので男性はいい所を見せるチャンスです。

+５ドルでサーフライダー一日乗り放題にしました。（インフォメーションで受け付けしてるので入場してから自分で申し込みます）自分としてはこれが一番面白かった。まったくの初めてで、以前テレビでアンガールズがやってたようにハプニング映像になるのかなぁとやる前は不安でしたが、40過ぎのおじさんでもわりとフツーにというか、以外に簡単？おススメです。

嫁さんはシャカにはまってました。二人乗りで向かい合って座るタイプのアトラクションなので絶叫系が好きな人は下が見える後ろに乗ったほうがより一層楽しめます。

The sandbar had beautiful weather, and I was able to take stunning photos. The snorkeling was satisfying with plenty of fish. I swam for the entire time, so much so that my legs hurt the next day; I was completely absorbed in it.

サンドバーは、お天気に恵まれ綺麗な写真がとれました。
シュノーケルは、魚が沢山いて満足。
時間いっぱい泳いだので、次の日は足が痛んだほど、夢中になれました。

We got there early, so we were able to ride most of the slides before it got crowded. The Shaka is my favorite, with the Waianae Whirl as a far second. If you haven't been there in a while (like me), the Shaka is now a 1-person ride instead of a 2-person as it was before. Convenient, since there was 3 of us.

If you haven't been there before, you aren't allowed to bring any food or drinks into the park. They check bags at the entrance, and I had to empty my water bottle since it wasn't sealed (it was just tap water, so no worries). Sunscreen is a must, as you'll be in the sun pretty much the whole time. Pro-tip: bring reefwalkers/water shoes! Slippers aren't allowed on the rides (for obvious reasons), so having reefwalkers will ensure you won't have to walk around on the hot, grippy ground of the park.

All in all, it's a fun way to spend the day and I'm glad I went!

The time spent diving was somewhat long, but the content was poor. The experience was quite lacking. First of all, there was no algae at all, not even a fragment. The diving location was just moving back and forth among artificial reefs, and there were only a few small fish and occasionally some larger ones. The only lively one in there was the guide (who was overacting). They should prioritize increasing the fish population first. It seems that feeding them might not be possible, but there should be some method available.

潜水している時間は、多少長かったが内容は、お粗末である。
あまりにも内容が寂しい。まず、藻が全く無いし欠片さえ見えない。
潜水している場所も、人工の岩礁の中を行き来しているだけで
岩礁の中には大きな魚がたまにと、小さな魚が少しいるだけである。
中で元気なのは、案内している親父さんだけである。（演技し過ぎ）
まずは、魚を増やす事を最優先で考えるべきである。
餌付けなどは、出来ないのではと思えるが、何か方法が有ると思われる。

The driver was knowledgeable - talkative - kind - and on time..
the whole experience was great
