All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

There were various troubles during the reservation stage, but Alan was very gentlemanly in his response, which was great. Now, regarding Wet 'n Wild, it definitely gave me the impression of being quintessentially American. The hotel pickup was on schedule, and it took about an hour to get there via the highway, but I was able to enjoy the scenery, so it wasn't a burden. We waited about 30 minutes to an hour to enter, and since it was before the season, securing a spot on the deck was not an issue. I tried two types of tube slides, and both were more intense than those in Japan! However, there was an 8-year-old white girl waiting in line alone, and when we rode together, she was incredibly happy, so it seems that even though they are intense, they are manageable. Additionally, there was a unique pool for bodyboarding, which offers a chance for those confident in their arms to show off their skills... For lunch, it was a buffet, and while it was probably worth the price, I was a bit disappointed when I compared it to hotel buffets. At first, I was worried that the return time for the tour was a bit early, but I was quite tired, so I thought this timing was just right.

予約段階でいろいろとトラブルがあったのですが、Alan１さんが紳士に対応くださったので、よかったです。さて、ウエットアンドワイルドについては、さすがアメリカという印象でした。ホテルでのピックアップは予定通りで、現地まで高速で１時間程度かかりますが、景色を楽しむこともでき苦になりませんでした。入場まで30分から1時間待って、さあ入場。シーズン前であったこともあり、デッキなど場所取りは問題なくできました。アトラクションはチューブスライダーを２種類試しましたが、いずれも日本のものより、過激！です。でも、８歳ぐらいの白人の女の子が一人で並んでいて相乗りとなりましたが、ものすごく喜んでいたので、過激といっても大丈夫なようになっているのでしょう。あと、変わったところではボディーボート用のプールがあり、腕に自信のある方はいいところを見せられる機会もあります・・・。昼食はバイキングで、まあ、値段相応なのでしょうがないですが、ホテルバイキングをイメージするとちょっとがっかりします。初めはツアーの帰りの時間が少し早いのではと心配していましたが、結構疲れていたので、このくらいで丁度よいと思いました。

In early August, I participated with three family members and three friends, totaling six people. The pickup was smooth, and we arrived at the local port in just under an hour. It seemed to be a popular tour, with participants being a mix of Japanese and international guests. There were two boats available, one for Japanese speakers and one for international guests; we chose the international option. After about 15 minutes of departure, we arrived at "Heaven."

Since it was right after a high tide, the sandy beach wasn't visible, but the view was absolutely stunning—something you wouldn't see in Japan, and our excitement was at its peak. My 12-year-old child was snorkeling for the first time, and with a life vest on, they comfortably explored the beautiful underwater scenery. The boat was clean, and we enjoyed lunch in a tropical atmosphere, which was the perfect time to relax.

After lunch, we moved to a turtle watching point for photos, and the return trip was smooth and without any issues. Thank you to all the staff for a wonderful time!

On the boat, there was a nice breeze, making it comfortable, but be careful as you might get sunburned without realizing it, so make sure to take sun protection. Also, bringing a 500ml plastic bottle filled with tap water is a great idea to rinse off some seawater and feel refreshed!

８月上旬、家族３名と友人ファミリー３名の６名で参加、ピックアップも問題なく１時間弱で現地港に到着。
人気のツアーらしく参加者は、日本＋多国籍の半々構成でした。船は2隻で日本語船と多国籍船お好きな方に乗船（多国籍選択）、出港して１５分で「天国」到着^^
大潮の直後で砂浜は出ていませんでしたが、まさに絶景、日本ではありえない光景が広がって、テンション最高潮。
子供（12）がシュノーケリング初めてでしたが、ライフベスト装着で快適にきれいな水中を散策していました。
船上もきれいで、トロピカルな雰囲気の中でランチをいただきボーーっとした最高の時間が流れます。
ランチ後はカメポイントに移動し、ウオッチング（写真）、帰りもスムーズで問題なく終了しました。
スタッフの皆さん、最高のひと時をありがとう~


船上は風があって快適で、気付かないうちに日焼けしますので、日焼け対策は万全に、後、５００ｍｌのペットボトルに水道水を入れて持っていくと、軽く海水を流せてすっきりですよ

The water was a bit cold, but as the sun rose, the colors became beautiful and it warmed up, and on top of that, we got to see a rainbow, which was amazing. The explanation about snorkeling was thorough, and even the companions who had felt scared on other tours were able to relax and enjoy themselves. They said they wanted to do more of this kind of thing.

The breakfast was delicious, and I was happy that they shared leftover snacks by putting them in a zip bag for everyone.

水は少々つめたかったけど、太陽が昇るとともに色もきれいにそして、あたたかくなってきて、おまけに虹も見れて最高でした。
　シュノーケルについての説明もていねいで、他のツアーで恐怖感を覚えていた同行者も安心して楽しんでいました。
こんなんやったらもっとしたいそうです。

朝食もおいしく、食べ残ったお菓子などをジップバックに入れてみなさんにわけてくださり、うれしかったです。

They came to pick us up in the morning, and we arrived in just under an hour.

There are many staff members who speak Japanese well, so it’s very reassuring.

It’s quite popular, with many locals also attending.

We participated in the deluxe plan, which includes unlimited juice and a buffet-style meal centered around meat, along with salads and fruits. It's quite delicious.

The only money needed is for the locker fee:
Large $12 + $5
Small $7 + $5
(The $5 is a deposit that is returned upon presenting the key and receipt.)

There are many attractions, so the day goes by in no time.

You can have a very enjoyable day. I've been here twice, and I want to go again the next time I come to Hawaii.

朝迎えに来ていただいて
1時間弱ほどで到着します。

日本語を上手に話すスタッフの人が多いので
とても安心できます。

現地の人も多く来ているぐらい人気があります。


私たちはデラックスプランで参加したので

ブッフェ形式の食べ放題です。
結構美味しいです。

お金が必要なのはロッカー代ぐらいです。

とても楽しく一日が過ごせます。
2回来ましたが次回ハワイに来たときも
また行きたいと思います。

The sandbar unfortunately wasn't visible above the water, but we were able to take great photos with the beautiful scenery in the background. The sea turtles were a bit disappointing. Snorkeling around the coral was fun. The lunch prepared by the captain was also delicious.

サンドバーは、あいにく水面から出ていなかったが、美しい景色をバックに良い写真が撮れました。ウミガメは少し期待はずれでした。珊瑚の周りのシュノーケリングは、楽しかったですね。キャプテンが調理するランチも美味しかったです。

I participated in a tour for the first time, and it was absolutely wonderful. Everything was as beautiful as paradise, and the staff were all very cheerful people, which made it truly enjoyable. The white sand of the sandbar, the cuteness of the sea turtles, and the beautiful fish while snorkeling among the corals created unforgettable memories for the kids as well. Also, the hamburgers on the boat were delicious! An uncle next to us played the guitar and sang, making it a truly dreamy time. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

初めてツアーに参加しましたが、非常に素晴らしかったです。
すべてが天国のようにきれいで、またStaffの皆さんも非常に愉快な方々ばかりで、本当に楽しみました。
Sandbarの白い砂、ウミガメの可愛らしさ、珊瑚でのシュノーケリングの美しい魚たち。子供たちにとってもどれも忘れらない思い出になりました。
それから、船上のハンバーガーのおいしかったこと！横でおじさんがギターの弾き語りをしてくれて、本当に夢のような時間でした。
素晴らしい思い出をありがとう！

Sail and snorkel trip was great. Thanks to the all-girl crew and everyone at Captain Bob's. Special thanks to Jenner for his bus trip narration and musical cruise entertainment.

Only poor note was the ride home. Bus trip back to Waikiki was a nightmare. Traffic was horrible and Vince is way too polite to be a city bus driver.

I got my friends lied for their first trip here and they loved it.
The quality of the leis was outstanding.

We participated as a family of three. Since our child is four years old, we chose this option because intense activities would be too much for him. The color of the sea was truly a beautiful blue, and the colors of the fish were vibrant as well. If we have the chance, we would like to use this service again.

家族３人で参加。子供が４歳なので、はげしいアクテイビテイは厳しいので、こちらを選びました。
海の色が本当にブルーですてきで・・・魚たちの色も映えていました。機会があれば、また利用したいです。

We saw a lot of dolphins from the boat, but unfortunately, we only caught a glimpse of them underwater. That was really disappointing. I really wanted to see more.
However, the staff were very considerate and kind, and we enjoyed activities like snorkeling and hula on the boat.

船上からはイルカがたくさん見えましたが、残念ながら水中で少し見えただけ。それがとても残念でした。やっぱりたくさん見たかったなあ。
ですが、スタッフの方がいろいろ気遣って親切にしてくださるし、シュノーケルや船上フラなど楽しめました。

This was my first time participating in this tour. I went with my husband and my nephew, and it was truly fun!! Swimming with dolphins, seeing them up close, and being able to feed rays and beautiful fish in the aquarium tank were all amazing experiences. My husband, my nephew, and of course I had a thrilling and joyful day. I definitely want to participate again next time!

今回初めてこのツアーに参加しました。
主人と甥っ子との参加でしたがホントに楽しかった！！
イルカと泳ぐのも、イルカの泳いでる姿を近くで見られるのも、水族館の水槽に入ってエイやキレイな魚達に手からエサをあげられるのも全て最高の体験でした。
主人も甥っ子も、もちろん私も大喜びの大興奮な１日を過ごせました。
次回もまた参加したいなぁ～と思います。

I booked this for my parents 40th anniversary. My mom had the hollywood version of Hawaii in her head (the hula dancer and ukulele greeting as you walk off the plane) which we all know doesn't happen, so I suprised them with the lei greeting. They were met at the gate with the leis and had grins from ear to ear. I got them the double strand of flowers and everywhere they went (car rental, airport staff, etc) stopped them to tell them it was the best lei they had seen - they see them all day long. This made my parents smile even more. I would highly recommend this to people who are first timers to the island, it really sets a mood for the start of your vacation.

The dinner cruise was awesome. We really enjoyed the show, dinner, and staff. The all you can eat crab legs really hit the spot. Thanks for making our last night in Hawaii a memorable one.

It was the tour I was looking forward to the most in Hawaii. It was just as I expected, very good!! The guide was mostly Japanese, which gave me a sense of security. The sandbar was wonderful, but the snorkeling, which was my first time, was also very good. The final turtle watching was satisfying as I was able to see many turtles. If I have the opportunity to go again, I definitely want to go.

ハワイで一番楽しみにしていたツアーでした。
期待通り、とてもよかったです！！
ガイドさんはほとんど日本人だったので、安心感がありました。サンドバーも素晴らしかったけど、初めてのシュノーケリングもとても良かったです。
最後のウミガメウオッチングも、たくさんのウミガメを見ることができ、とても満足のいくツアーでした。
また行く機会があれば是非行きたいです。

The weather was not great on the day of the tour, but miraculously, it cleared up when we arrived at the sandbar. The gradient from the sandbar to the deep sea was beautiful, and I was very satisfied with it. We also saw nearly ten sea turtles. I didn't realize there were so many of them!

Overall, it was a satisfying tour, but I wish the pickup time had been 20 to 30 minutes earlier so that we could have had a bit more time for snorkeling. That way, we would have been able to catch the low tide and see the sandbar more clearly from the water's surface.

当日は天気がイマイチでしたが、サンドバーに着くと奇跡的に晴れました。サンドバーから海の深い所へのグラデーションが美しくとても満足のいくものでした。ウミガメも10匹近く見れました。あんなにいっぱいいるものなんですねー。
全体的には満足のいくツアーでしたが、ピックアップの時間をもう20~30分速めてもらって、シュノーケリングの時間をもう少し取ってもらいたいなと思いました。
そうすれば干潮の時間にも間に合って水面から出たサンドバーも見やすくなると思います。

I was wondering if I would really see dolphins, but I actually did. Moreover, I saw quite a few of them. It seems some people also saw sea turtles. If I have the chance, I would like to participate again.

イルカ本当に見れるのかな~と思ってましたが、本当に見れました。しかも結構な数、見れました。海ガメも見れた方もいたようです。機会があればまた参加したいと思いました。

We participated the day after we arrived in Hawaii. At first, the kids (12 and 9 years old) were hesitant, but in the end, they played until just before the gathering time. Anyway, we laughed, shouted, and had an amazing time. Everyone agreed that we want to come back.

ハワイに着いた翌日に参加しました。
最初、消極的だった子供たち（１２歳、９歳）も最後は集合時間ぎりぎりまで遊んでいました。
とにかく、笑って、叫んで、ものすごく楽しかったです。
また来たいね。って全員一致の意見でした。

The sliders were really fun, and even adults enjoyed them thoroughly. However, the stay was short, so it was difficult to experience everything. Be prepared for long lines during meal times.

本当にスライダーが楽しくて、大人でも十分に楽しめました。ただ、滞在時間が短いのでなかなか全部をまわることはできません。食事時には長蛇の列を覚悟。

When I handed the voucher to the staff at the meeting point on the day of the event, I was anxious about where to receive the DVD gift. However, there were many Japanese staff members in the park, so I was able to ask various questions about things I didn't understand or felt uncertain about.

When I confirmed about the DVD with the staff, they quickly brought me a copy of the voucher, and we were able to receive the DVD gift for the Dolphin Encounter we participated in, which became a wonderful keepsake. (You receive the DVD if you purchase even one photo, and the photo was $16.)

The Dolphin Encounter provided a valuable experience, and the dolphin show was quite lively, different from those in Japan. All the announcements were in English, but even the children who didn't understand English enjoyed watching it very much.

The entire park isn't very large, but we had a lot of fun throughout the day.

当日集合場所でバウチャーを担当者に渡した際、ＤＶＤプレゼントはどこでもらえるのか！？等々不安になりましたが園内には日本人のスタッフも多くいたので分からない事や不安な事は色々聞くことが出来ました。
ＤＶＤの件はスタッフに確認するとすぐにバウチャーのコピーを持ってきてくれたので無事に私達が参加したドルフィンエンカウンターのＤＶＤのプレゼントを頂くことが出来、とても記念になりました。
（写真を一枚でも購入するとＤＶＤがもらえて写真は一枚16ドルでした。）

ドルフィンエンカウンターでは貴重な経験をする事が出来、またイルカのショーも日本とは違ってかなりノリのよいショーでアナウンスは全て英語ですが英語のわからない子供達もすごく楽しんでみていました。

園内全体はさほど広くはありませんが、一日とても楽しめました。

I still can't believe I got to swim with the dolphin teacher. Moreover, the turtle teacher also made an appearance, and it felt like a dream. The sounds of the dolphins are still fresh in my mind. I thought the children might be more afraid of the ocean, but they were lively, swimming around with the fish and were very excited.
I felt that the guides' attentiveness and the program's organization were of a very high level. It was truly exceptional.
As a point of reflection for our family for next time, since it gets very cold after coming out of the water, I think we should definitely bring something to wear and a change of clothes. We will participate again!

本当にイルカ先生と一緒に泳げたとは、今でも信じられません。しかもウミガメ先生も登場して、まるで夢のようでした。イルカ先生たちの鳴き声がまだ頭に残っています。こどもたちも、もっと海を怖がるかと思いましたが、生き生きと海の中を魚たちと泳ぎまわり、興奮していました。
ガイドの方たちの気配りや、プログラムの組み立ても大変レベルが高いと感じました。至れり尽くせりといった感じ。
次回また参加させていただくための、我が家の反省点としては、海からあがってからがとても体が冷えるので、羽織るものや着替えをしっかり持っていくことかな？また参加させていただきます！

At the time of booking, I thought the price might be a bit high, but even with the dolphin swim, I was satisfied with the packed itinerary that included breakfast with "malasadas," "paddle surfing," and "hula." The staff were very friendly and made sure we had fun without feeling nervous. Participants ranged from elementary school students to couples in their 60s, which added to the enjoyment. We left early in the morning to match the dolphin time. By the time we returned to the hotel, it was noon. There was still half a day left, and I felt quite satisfied and fulfilled that day!

申し込み時、お値段的に高いかな~と思ったけれど、ドルフィンスイムとはいえ、朝ご飯の“マラサダ”から“パドルサーフィン”“フラ”なども楽しめる盛りだくさんの企画で満足しました。スタッフの方もとってもフレンドリーで緊張せず楽しませてくれました。参加者も、小学生~60代のご夫婦まで各年齢層が集まり、これもまた楽しい要因でした。イルカtimeに合わせ朝早く出発。すべて終わってホテルに戻るとお昼の12時。まだ半日もあるぞ~!と、その日はかなり満足＆充実してました。

The wife and I enjoyed this tour immensely. We had always been doing the Waikiki stuff on vacation in Hawaii before now, but this time we decided to see what was on the Eastside of the island.

And by far, we both feel this is the prettiest spot on the whole island. It is quieter and really does have that "Old Hawaii" feel to it. The tour was excellent, the ranch is BEAUTIFUL, and the staff was friendly and very knowledgeable in answering every question we had.

Our first date was to the movie Jurassic Park too, so that was a really neat added benefit, to visit the place some scenes were actually filmed there! Would highly recommend this tour!

Damien was a great tour guide giving excellent information throughout the entire tour. The greatest part of the trip is the "Grand Canyon" of the islands. Although somewhat expensive (airfare I guess), my wife and I really enjoyed the day.

I'm from NZ and am intending on bringing some 11-12yr olds back next year. I found it very moving and am sure everyone who attends will also be the same. I hope that when I do bring my students back that they will also appreciate and understand the impact it has had on everyone involved. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

The weather was favorable, and we were able to see many sea turtles. The snacks were delicious, and I was satisfied. The sandbar had a wonderful contrast with the sea and was very beautiful. Next time, I would like to visit during a lower tide.

天候にも恵まれウミガメも数多く見ることができました。軽食も美味しく満足。サンドバーも海のコントラストが素晴らしく綺麗でした。今度はもっと引き潮の時に訪れたいと思います。

We were blessed with good weather and encountered about seven sea turtles. The guide mentioned that days like this are truly rare. We also enjoyed a delicious lunch and had a blissful time.

天候にも恵まれ海がめも7匹ぐらい遭遇し、ガイドさんもこんな日は本当にめずらしいとの事。昼食も美味しく頂き至福の時を過ごせました。

I participated with my child. In the pool with the dolphins, my 5-year-old couldn't touch the bottom, but they enjoyed kissing and shaking hands with the dolphins while being held. After the activity, in addition to commemorative photos, we were able to purchase a DVD, so there was no need to worry about recording the video ourselves, making it a great keepsake.

子連れで参加しました。
イルカのいるプールでは子供（５歳）は足がつきませんでしたが抱っこしてもらいながらイルカとキスをしたり握手をしたり楽しんでいました。
アクティビティ終了後には記念写真の他にDVDも購入可能で自分でビデオを回す必要も無く良い記念になりました。

I participated with my 5-year-old daughter. My wife filmed from the observation area. It was great to have the opportunity to touch dolphins, which is not something you get to do often, and my daughter was thrilled. We were divided into two groups, and luckily we were in the group closer to the observation area, so my wife could see us up close. Even small children can participate safely, and my daughter was super excited to kiss the dolphins and receive kisses in return.

The optional tour with Alan1 includes a DVD of the encounter, so we chose this option, and it was lucky because it normally costs $40 if purchased separately. Our return bus was at 2:30 PM, which I think was just the right time to see a few shows after the dolphin encounter. If it were any longer, it might have felt a bit boring.

Overall, I think it's an optional tour worth going on, but since all the staff on the way to and from the encounter, as well as the show, spoke English, I found it a bit difficult to understand since I don't speak English well.

５歳の娘と私で参加しました。家内は見学席でビデオ撮影でした。
イルカに触れることなどなかなか無いので、良かったですし、娘も喜んでいました。２組に分かれていて、運良く私たちは見学席に近い方だったので、家内も近くで見ることが出来ました。小さい子供さんでも安心して参加出来るし、娘もイルカにキスしたり、キスしてもらったり大興奮でした。
Alan1のオプショナルツアーはこのエンカウンターのＤＶＤがもらえるので、このオプショナルにしましたが、通常買うと４０ドルするので、それがもらえるのはラッキーでした。
１４：３０に帰りのバスでしたが、ドルフィンエンカウンターの後のいくつかのショーなどを見るにはちょうど良い時間だと思います。
あれ以上長いとちょっと飽きてしまう感じです。
全体的には行く価値のある、オプショナルツアーだと思いますが、行き帰りのスタッフさんもエンカウンターのスタッフさんもショーもすべて英語なので、英語の出来ない私はちょっとわからないことが多かったです。

OK, there was a pod of 200 dolphins swimming all around our boat - which was a trip, sunset views were awesome - you won't see a sunset like this one in Waikiki, believe me I went one TWO sailing trips in Waikiki last week, which were great too ... but on this trip we actually saw the sun slip away behind the ocean horizon. The crew was so friendly and chill and accommodating ... no pressure ... no trying to shamelessly sell you stuff, actually, Captain Patrick shared all the free stuff to do along the coast, we saw the Black Pearl from Pirates of the Caribbean and the new Disney hotel too. The snorkeling was great! The food was simple and healthy and tasty! Yum! I understand that this is a newer tour so we only had about 18 people on a 49 capacity boat .... so lots of room to stretch out and get some tanning done. Thank you all at the Ocean Joy for such an amazing experience! We will be back the Kai oli oli again!!

There are various types of slides, from scary ones to kid-friendly ones, so we were able to play for half a day without getting bored. By the time it was time to pick up, I felt like we could have stayed for another two hours! I plan to go again!

怖いものからキッズ向けのものまでいろいろなスライダー系があって飽きずに半日遊べました。ピックアップの時間になり、あと２時間くらいはあってもいいと思えるほどでした。またいく予定です！
