All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

I was informed that there would be no Japanese language assistance for the boarding check, but when I participated, there was someone who spoke Japanese on-site who kindly gathered the Japanese participants and provided guidance for check-in and the return bus, so I had no trouble at all. The area where the visitor center is located is not so large that you would get lost, and each tour is clearly separated. During the one and a half hours of free time before the return bus, I was able to have lunch and take a walk to the ocean right in front of me, so I didn't get bored at all. I highly recommend the plate of garlic butter shrimp with plenty of garlic! They give you a small machine with a number, and when you sit and wait, you will be called to pick up your order at the counter. For drinks, you tell the cashier, and they give you a cup to fill yourself from the drink station.

The tour itself and the visitor center were only in English, but the roads were quite bumpy, making it feel like an attraction, and the scenic viewpoints were truly worth visiting. There is an option to walk a bit up a mountain trail to reach a higher viewpoint (participation is optional), and I definitely recommend going. It's not a long path at all. Even someone in their 60s like me had no problem. They lend you a wooden walking stick.

The round-trip bus was very nice and comfortable. The Sheraton Aloha Landing doesn't have the tour name prominently displayed, but since it's not a very large place, you can easily recognize the bus with the destination written in English. I'm glad we participated as a couple.

日本語での乗車チェック現地案内は一切無いとのことでしたが私が参加した時は現地で日本語ができる人が日本人を集めて親切にチェックインや帰りのバスなどの案内をしてくれたので全く迷うこともなく（ビジターセンターがある場所は迷うほど広くはなく、各ツアー別にわかりやすく分かれている）、１時間半程度の帰りのバスまでの空き時間はランチを食べたり目の前の海まで散歩したり退屈することはなかったです。ガーリックたっぷりのバターガーリックシュリンプのプレートはおすすめ！！番号がついた小さなマシーンを渡されて、座って待っていると呼び出されて受け取り口で注文品を受け取ります。飲み物はレジで言うとカップをくれて買ったカップにセルフで入れる感じです。
ツアー自体やビジターセンターは英語のみでしたが、道のアチコチがかなりのデコボコ道でアトラクションのような感じで楽しく、絶景ポイントは本当に行ってよかったと思わせてくれるいい場所でした。途中ちょっと山道を歩いて上の絶景ポイントまで行くというのがありますが（自由参加）絶対行った方がいいです。それほど長い道ではないです。60代の私でも大丈夫でした。木の杖を貸してくれます。
往復のバスは大変立派で快適。シェラトンのアロハランディングは特にツアー名前が掲げられているわけではありませんが、そこもそれほど大きな場所ではないので英語で行先が書かれているバスが来るのですぐわかります。
夫婦で参加してよかったです。

An awesome day out and we were well looked after by the all-wahine crew! They were knowledgeable and friendly and ensured the safety of all on board, will recommend to family and friends! We enjoyed the whole experience from volleyball to turtle watching and snorkelling the reef, also very safe for my 11 year old

Star of Honolulu Sunset Cruise was amazing! My group had an awesome time, food was delicious, show was amazing as well. I was hoping for an actual Luau with the fire show. The service was great, very welcoming. Highly recommended!

Boarding Day: Friday
Boarding Course: 5 Star

If you're going to board, it's best to do so on a Friday when the Hilton fireworks are held. The fireworks themselves last about 5 minutes, but the combination of the night view of Waikiki and the fireworks from the sea is breathtaking.
Unfortunately, the sunset was not very impressive due to the clouds. I guess that's just luck...
However, the dinner was extremely delicious.
Also, the live performance was great.
I had previously boarded a 3 Star cruise, but I think I will only choose 5 Star in the future.
While it is more expensive compared to 3 Star, you should definitely go for 5 Star.

乗船曜日:金曜
乗船コース:5スター

乗船するなら、ヒルトンの花火が行われる金曜です。花火自体は5分程度ですが、海上からワイキキの夜景と花火のコラボは絶景です。
サンセットは雲があり、感動する感じではなかったのが残念でした。こればかりは運かと…。
でも、ディナーが非常に美味しかったです。
また、生演奏がよかった。
以前に3スターに乗船したことありましたが、今後は5スターしか選ばないと思います。
3スターに比べれば値は張りますが、5スターにすべきです。

First time on Captain Bob’s we will definitely come back again!! Great crew, the scenery and water was beautiful we had so much fun!!

The attractions were great. I was glad to have reserved a cabana, but I couldn't place food orders from my phone using the QR code. The cabana was a bit pricey, but it was worth it.

アトラクションは良かった。
カバナを予約して良かったが、フードのオーダーはQRコードで行うのに携帯からオーダー出来なかった。カバナは少し高いがあって良かった。

Since there were no reviews on this site, I looked up other sites (which also had mostly English posts), and I really wanted to try Sunset SUP and paddle in both the river and the ocean, so I decided to join this tour.
In conclusion, it was definitely the right choice to participate!
At the beginning of September, the sunset is around 18:30 to 19:00, so we started at 16:30. We departed from the ocean and entered the connected river. Just before we started, it rained for a moment, and while paddling, we were able to see a rainbow.
We were the only ones doing SUP, and paddling through the quiet and calm river surrounded by trees was a blissful experience. We even encountered a sea turtle. After paddling a long distance down the river and turning back to return to the ocean, the sun was beginning to set, and we leisurely watched the sunset there. Although we finished SUP before it got dark, we returned to the beach and watched the sunset before leaving the North Shore.
The guide couldn't speak Japanese, so we communicated in English, and despite my limited English skills, I managed to communicate and had a great time. Also, since I was worried about whether there would be Uber or buses, I included it in a private tour. I highly recommend participating!

当サイトにクチコミがなかったので他サイトでも調べ(そこでも英語の書き込みばかりでしたが)、どうしてもサンセットサップがやりたかったのと、川だけでなく海も漕ぎたかったのでこちらのツアーに参加することにしました。
結論、参加して大正解でした！
9月頭だと日没が18:30~19:00頃なので16:30にスタート。海を出発し、繋がっている川に入っていきます。直前に一瞬雨が降ったこともあり、漕ぎながら虹を見ることができました。
SUPをしている人は私たちしかおらず静かで穏やかな川を漕ぐのですが、木々に囲まれた川をゆったりと進むのは至福の時でした。ウミガメにも遭遇できました。長い距離川を漕ぎ、折り返してまた海に戻ってくると日が沈みかけており、そこで日没をゆったりと眺めました。暗くなる前にSUPは終了しましたが、ビーチに戻って日が暮れるのを見てノースショアを後にしました。
ガイドさんは日本語が話せず英語での会話をしましたが拙い英語力でもなんとかコミュニケーションをとって楽しい一時を過ごせました。また、今回はUberやバスがあるか不安だったので個人ツアーの中に組み込みました。是非参加することをお勧めします！

It was a lovely experience! Crew was amazing and entertainment was fun. Food was also very good. Only issue I had was I ordered 2 Mai tias. One alcoholic ,one non alcoholic and they charged me same price for each…$10 a piece. I do not think a drink that only contained fruit juice and no alcohol should have been the same price.
Other then that, it was a beautiful cruise

It was breathtaking to see the landscapes I had seen in Jurassic Park and LOST up close. The tour guide's American jokes were very funny.

ジュラシックパークやLOSTで観た風景を間近で観れるのは圧巻でした。
ツアーガイドさんのアメリカンジョークはとても面白かったです。

I learned a lot from actual episodes from World War II. I was particularly moved by the water burial of Japanese soldiers who died during the kamikaze missions by the United States Navy.

第二次世界大戦での実際にあったエピソードなど、勉強になりました。
特にアメリカ海軍による特攻で亡くなった日本兵の水葬などは感銘を受けました。

You can only touch the dolphins a little and feed them from outside the pool. Also, I thought "observer" meant that the children could observe (watch) the dolphins, but that wasn't the case. We couldn't even enter the area where the attraction takes place. I wish they had used different wording.

プールの外からイルカに少し触ったりエサを上げる程度です。あと、observerというのは言葉の通り子供たちがイルカに触るのをオブザーブ（観察する）ことができるのかと思ったら違いました。アトラクション実施するエリアに入ることすらできませんでした。違う言葉を使ってほしかったです

Liked being first to beach, life vest was missing straps that go between legs front to back, this caused jacket to float up around neck, the overall experience is good and I recommend, but life vests need addressed

My 7-year-old son got hooked on the Tornado and went down six times with breaks in between! Climbing back up after each slide wore us parents out, but we had so much fun since we didn't have to wait long.

My 10-year-old daughter mostly enjoyed the wave pool, and there were attractions for everyone to enjoy, which was great. I wasn't sure how crowded it would be, but we only had a day pass, and the food court wasn't crowded at all, so we didn't have any issues. The guide helped us with how to use the locker machines and pointed out the hidden free chair spots, which was really helpful. I thought we might run out of time, but I think the duration was just right for our energy levels.

The kids said they want to come back when we visit Hawaii again, so I definitely want to return!

7才の男の子はトルネードにはまり休憩はさんで6回も滑りました！滑っては登りを繰り返して親はへとへとになりましたが…あまり待たずにいけたので、親子共々とっても楽しかったです！
10才の女の子はほとんど波のプール、それぞれ楽しめるアトラクションがあり助かりました。
混み具合がわからなかったけど、私達は1日券のみでしたがフードコートも混んでなく特に困りませんでした。ガイドさんがロッカーの機械の使い方や穴場の無料チェアーの場所など教えてくれて助かりました。時間も足りないかな？と思ったけど、体力的にはちょうどいい時間だったと思います。
またハワイに来た時に子供達が行きたいと言ってるので来たいと思います！

Our guide Kinoa was fantastic, chatting all day but not obtrusive or overbearing. We saw some beautiful scenery, had a delicious lunch and learnt so much about being an Hawaiian and real living in Hawaii, not the tourist hype of Waikiki.

Definitely recommend this activity!
I went with my mom, she does not know how to swim or is comfortable with the ocean, but somehow she managed to experience the sandbar and actually got in the water. This was a huge deal for her and it helped tide was low so she felt more comfortable.
Crew was amazing and engaged with all of us on tour! They helped those in need and made us all feel welcomed.
We would definitely book this tour again and bring our family with us next time!

Thank you guys! My mom wouldn’t stop talking about how much fun she had and how you guys made her feel safe despite her fear of water.

Even though it was sunny in Waikiki, as we made our way to the sandbar, the clouds started to gather and it rained lightly at the end. However, we were able to encounter sea turtles, and the snorkeling allowed us to see the fish beautifully, so I was satisfied. It was also fun to be surrounded by movie filming locations, and the explanations were well done.

ワイキキの方は晴れていてもいざサンドバーの方まで行くとだんだん雲行きが怪しくなって雨は最後にぱらつく程度降りましたがウミガメも遭遇できましたし、シュノーケルでは魚が綺麗に見えたので満足です。周りが映画のロケ地で説明も上手で楽しかったです。

My child is 6 years old, and I think we had a great experience with the various slides and children's pools that were available for the admission fee. I believe I went on a Tuesday, and while the regular hours are supposed to be until 5 PM, for some reason that day it ended at 3 PM. We went by rental car, and the highway was also congested on the way back, so I wondered if Tuesdays in Hawaii generally have shorter working hours. Outside food and drinks are completely prohibited, and you have to purchase everything inside, but we had to wait quite a bit in both the ordering and pickup lines. As is often the case, the tables were left dirty with sauce from the previous guests.

子供は6才ですが利用できるスライダーや子供用のプールも充実しており入場料に見合った体験が出来たと思います。私が行ったのは火曜日だったと思いますが通常の営業時間は17時までだったはずですが何故かその日は15時で終了となってしまいました。レンタカーで行っていたのですが帰りの高速道路も渋滞していたのでハワイの火曜日は全般的に仕事の勤務時間が短い日なのかなと思いました。飲食物の持ち込みは一切禁止で場内で購入ですがオーダーの列と受け取りどちらもけっこう並びました。有りがちですがテーブルは前の人達が汚したソースとか付いたままになっていました。

I was worried because there were no Japanese speakers available, but there was no problem enjoying the activities themselves (I think it would have been even more fun if I could understand the English explanations). My family had a great time, especially the kids who were very satisfied! One of the other groups on board looked quite miserable from seasickness, so I recommend bringing motion sickness medication.

日本語を話す方がいない時間帯だったので心配でしたが、アクティビティを楽しむこと自体に問題はなく（たぶん英語の説明が分かればもっと楽しかったと思いますが）、家族で楽しんできました。とくに子どもが大満足でした！同乗していた別グループの方は、船に酔ってずっと辛そうだったので、酔い止め持参がオススメです。

Yummy food and beautiful Hawaii views out your boat window! Can't go wrong

We chose Oahu for Pearl Harbor and the park did not dissapoint

Do this tour- you get to see the entire farm in different ways! and lunch was easy to feed our larger family too!

This was the highlight of our trip! Esp seeing the dolphins spalshing around!!

Qr code has it easier to skip the line on the way in!

I was with my child, but I didn't have any worries at all. It was nice to take it slow while diving, and I was glad that we could handle the changes in pressure.

子供と一緒でしたが、何も心配入りませんでした。ゆっくりセンスイしていくので、気圧の変化にも対応できて良かったです

Not only Japanese people, but also foreigners participated, and there were staff members who could speak Japanese, so I was able to enjoy the snorkeling experience with peace of mind.

日本人だけでなく、外国の方も参加されていましたが、日本語を話せるスタッフもいたので、安心してシュノーケリングの体験をすることができました。

I had ordered and paid for a life jacket in advance, but I couldn't rent it on the day of my visit... I couldn't understand the English, and when I arrived and tried to communicate, the bus had already left (crying). The sea was very clear, and I could see the fish.

ライフジャケットを事前に注文、支払いしていましたが、当日レンタルできませんでした…。英語の理解が及ばず、到着して伝えようとしたらもうバスが行ってしまっていました(泣)海はとても透明で魚も見れました。

Super fun. Lovely ship. Friendly crew. Yummy food. Beautiful dance show. Just do it!

It was a day with cloudy skies, but with occasional glimpses of sunshine.

I participated in the Dolphin Encounter, and interacting with the dolphins was a great experience; my 6-year-old son seemed to enjoy it as well. However, the temperature and water temperature weren't very high, and towards the end, it started to get a bit chilly. This is really dependent on the weather, so I haven't included it in my evaluation.

Since it was my first time interacting with dolphins and I had never done it in Japan, I can't compare experiences, but honestly, I think Japanese aquariums and similar places are better in other aspects after the experience.

The area isn't very large, so you have to wait quite a bit until it's time to leave.

Personally, my satisfaction level relative to the price was a bit low, which is why I gave this rating.

晴れ間がたまに見れる曇り空の１日でした。

ドルフィンエンカウンターに参加し、イルカとの触れ合い自体は良い体験で、6歳の息子も楽しそうでした。
ただ、やはり気温も水温もそれほど高くなく、最後の方はちょっと寒くなりかけてました。
こればかりは天候次第なので、評価の良し悪しには含めてません。

イルカとの触れ合いは初めてで日本でもしたことが無かったので経験値の比較は出来ませんが、体験後のそれ以外は正直日本の水族館等の方が良いかなと思います。

敷地も全然広く無いので、帰りの時間までまあまあ待ちます。

個人的には値段に対しての満足度はちょっと低かったので、この評価です。

We participated with four adults. We boarded the safari bus and set off. The wild drive lasted just over an hour and was exhilarating!
Along the way, we got off at breathtaking viewpoints, passed through some nerve-wracking cliff edges, and even did a bit of mountain climbing. It might be wise to be cautious if you're wearing sandals.
Also, once you set off, there are no restrooms in the mountains!

大人4人で参加。サファリバスに乗って出発しました。1時間強のワイルドドライブ、気分爽快でした！
途中絶景ポイントで下車したり、ヒヤヒヤ崖っぷちを通ったり、ちょっとした山登りもあります。サンダル履きは気をつけたほうがいいかもです。
あと、出発したら山中にはトイレがありません！

I participated in Dolphin Aloha. I was able to touch the dolphins, which was a first experience for me. Such interactions are not something you can usually experience, so my child was very happy. The park isn't very large, but we enjoyed feeding the little birds and the sea lions throughout the day. Since we left at 2:00 PM, it was just right to do some shopping in Waikiki afterward.

ドルフィンアロハに参加しました。イルカを触らしてもらえ、初の体験でした。こんなふれあいは普段体験できないので、子供がとても喜んでいました。パークはそれほど大きくないですが、小鳥への餌やりや、アシカの餌付けなど１日楽しめました。帰りは14:00だったので、パーク後はワイキキでショッピングできたのでちょうどよかったです。
