All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

In the early morning, there are courses available in the morning, afternoon, and evening, and I chose the morning to head to "Kaneohe"! The ocean was even more beautiful than I imagined, and there was plenty of time to play and enjoy the sea. The guide informed us that there’s a high chance of encountering "honu" (sea turtles), and while looking at the surface of the water, everyone suddenly pointed at the sea (laughs). This time, I participated with my family, and we returned feeling warm and happy. I was a bit concerned about the restroom situation, but overall, it was a lot of fun!

　早朝、午前、午後とコースがある中で、午前を選択して、いざ、「カネオヘ」へ！想像以上に海はきれいで、遊ぶ時間もたっぷりあり、海を満喫できます。高確率で「ホヌ」に出会えるとガイドさんに教えていただき、水面を見ているとみんながいっせいに海を指さしていました（笑）今回は、家族で参加しましたが、ほっこりして帰ってきました。少しトイレ事情が悪いのが気になりますが、かなり楽しめますよ！

The staff were the best! They were professional & knowledgeable. All of my questions were answered thoroughly. It was a memorable experience just being in this scenic, beautiful area. Even the BBQ was excellent. When I come back, I will do it all over again. NOTE: the bus driver, Richard, who shuttled us, kept us entertained.

The Kualoa Experience was amazing, The tours that we did on the day had exceptional knowledgeable guides.
We also had the lunch which was delicious. We had know idea that there was that many movies and series made at the ranch.

It was quick and convenient, no hassle no fuss. Highly recommend this

Not enough time for the Bowfin and Missouri! Especially the Missouri is so valuable and amazing!
Introduction saying drop off 16:15-17:00, but our tour actually ended by 14:30 (return from Missouri), I have no idea why but it happened like this. If we have more time, could be definitely better, a bit disappointed.

Four years ago, my husband and I had the opportunity to experience this. We had such a wonderful time that this time, I was very happy to participate in the tour with our family of five, and it was incredibly fun. The instructor was very supportive of our grandchildren, which we really appreciated. This is definitely a tour we want to go on whenever we come to Hawaii. Thank you very much.

今回、私達は夫婦は四年前に体験させて頂いております。とっても楽しい時間を過ごしましたので
今回は家族５人でツアー参加できた事、とっても嬉しかったですし、とっても楽しいかったです。
インストラクターのお姉さんが孫達をしっかりサポートしてくださっていたので、ありがたかったです。ハワイに来たら必ず行きたいツアーですね。ありがとうございました。

It was disappointing that some attractions were under maintenance and we couldn't experience them, but we had a really fun time. My grandchildren were also very happy. Some people might wonder why you would go to Hawaii just for a pool, but there aren't many pools like this in Japan, so I was very satisfied.

Also, since it was a plan with transportation included, I wasn't sure when to give the tip. I was hoping to meet the guide on the way back, but unfortunately, I didn't get to see her. I ended up giving the tip to the taxi driver, but I'm not sure what happens to that tip. We also went to the Heaven's Beach Sandbar this time, and since we received guidance on tipping there, I thought it would be the same this time, so it felt a bit off.

メンテナンス中のものがあり出来なかったのは残念でしたが、とっても楽しい時間を過ごすしました。孫達も大喜びでした。ハワイに来てプール？という人もいるかもしれないですが、日本にはなかなかこんなプールないので大変満足しました。
それから、送迎付きでのプランだったのですが、チップを渡すタイミングが分からなくて帰りガイドのお姉さんに会えると思って待っていましたが会えなくて残念でした。タクシーの方に渡しましたが、このチップはどうなるのか分からない部分です。今回も天国の海サンドバーにも行きましたがチップの案内をして貰えたので、また言って貰えるものだと思っていましたのでしっくりいかなかったです。

Overall an enjoyable sunset cruise but a bit rushed boarding the boat. We were served and eating our meal while the boat was still in dock. Our meal was the first out and surrounding tables took a while before theirs came out. Our crab leg shells were soft and impossible to crack open. Otherwise the food was enjoyable. Entertainment was fun and lively. I would recommend this experience.

The snorkeling lasted just under an hour, but it was quite exhausting. For me, it was the right amount of time. I was also able to enjoy seeing the sea turtles. The hamburger for lunch was delicious. With unlimited soft drinks, I didn't have to worry about hydration. A larger towel is definitely a must.

シュノーケルは1時間弱でしたがかなり体力消耗しました　私的には適量な時間でした
ウミガメにもあえて満喫できました
ランチのハンバーガーも美味しくいただきました
ソフトドリンクが飲み放題なので水分補給は心配なし
大きめのタオルは必須ですね

It was a good tour and great driver. I wish we would have stopped at more of the scenic spots and skipped some of the roadside gift shops. One was enough. I would skip the Dole Plantation altogether.

It was great until we got on the boat, but the waves were so strong that I got seasick and couldn't enjoy it at all. It seems that Japanese people are gathered on the second floor of the boat, but it shakes a lot up there. I definitely think that anyone who gets motion sickness should avoid this. During our time, we couldn't even see any dolphins. Honestly, I felt like I wanted at least a little bit of my money back.

船に乗るまでは良かったですが、波がすごくて船酔いして全く楽しめませんでした。
日本人は船の2階に集めらるみたいですが、２階がすごく揺れます。少しでも乗り物酔いする方は絶対にやめておいたほうがよいと思います。
私達の時はイルカも見れませんでした。ほんと、少しでいいからお金返してほしい気持ちでした。

Very well organized tour with beautiful scenery throughout. There is so much opportunity to take lots of pictures and interact with movie props, etc. There is also a variety of activities to do. However, this review is only for the Movie sites and ranch tour. The tour was perfect for those who cannot endure bumpy ride such as the elderly and pregnant. My mother was comfortable and did not complain about it being too rough. Our tour guide made it really special. He was very informative and engaging. Also, you can tell that he really enjoys what he is doing and really has a passion for movies and discussing them. I also love the fact that he was willing to take pictures Group/families. Overall, I would recommend this to anyone who loves nature and movies, or would just like to spend a 1/2 day at Kuaola ranch.

Great cruise, all staff, especially our service assistant, were extremely pleasant, professional, and efficient. A very good buffet with carved roast beef, delicious chicken and fish, everything. Fireworks show a bit difficult. In order to see it well people had to run to one side of the ship, not only tilting the ship a bit but making it even more difficult for people who didn't want to dash to the side to see. This was only a minor observation.

It was my first time deep-sea fishing, and I was worried about seasickness, but the waves were calm, the weather was nice, and I enjoyed the stunning views of Waikiki, Diamond Head, and Coco Head during the cruise, so it was fine. We moved to several spots and patiently waited with squid as bait, but unfortunately, we didn't catch anything. However, we enjoyed delicious sashimi and sautéed fish caught by others. Every time someone caught a fish, there were cheers, and it was a lot of fun!

海釣りは初めてで船酔いが心配でしたが、波も静かでお天気もよく、ワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッド、ココヘッドなどの絶景を楽しみながらのクルーズだったので大丈夫でした。何カ所もスポットを移動して、イカを餌にじっと待ちましたが、残念ながら釣れず。でも他の方が釣った魚をお刺身やソテーでおいしくいただきました。誰かが釣るたびに歓声が上がり、とても楽しかったです！

It was a relatively large water park that you can't experience in Japan. Since it was a weekday in mid-October, there were fewer visitors compared to peak times, and we could enjoy almost all the attractions without much waiting. I had a great time reliving my childhood with thrilling drop slides that felt like zero gravity and wave pools. Due to the season, about a quarter of the attractions were closed, but we still had fun! The bodyboarding was the most enjoyable, so I recommend the bodyboard package.

There is a bag check at the entrance. I believe I was informed that one unopened plastic bottle is allowed (though I think locals brought water bottles, but I don't remember the details). Inflatable rings are not allowed, but there are plenty available inside the park, so there's no need to worry. The coin laundry costs $13 (small) and $18 (medium), and we chose the medium for two people. While card payments are accepted, many people experienced errors, so it might be safer to have cash on hand. You can access the lockers as many times as you want throughout the day. There are showers and changing rooms near the lockers, but the water is not hot, so it can be a bit chilly.

There were about five food and drink sales points, but on that day, there was only one staff member serving, which caused a line during lunchtime. Since I was wearing a tour wristband, I wasn't asked to show a copy of my passport when paying by credit card.

The park is located near the highway, so you can't access it without a car. If you're not on a bus tour, you would need to take a public bus and then use Uber (about a 5-minute ride) to get to the park, or rent a car. Unlike public buses, a tour bus allows you to sleep comfortably on the way back, so I recommend the bus tour. Additionally, the Japanese female tour guide was very kind, making it a reassuring experience. She even took some photos for us.

　日本では経験できない比較的大規模なウォーターパークでした。10月中旬の平日であったせいか、ピーク時と比べると利用者は少めであり、どのアトラクションも殆ど並ぶことなく利用できました。無重力空間を体験できるような急降下スライダーや波のプールなど、童心に帰り楽しむことができました。時期的なこともあり1/4くらいは休止中でしたが、それでも楽しめました！ボディボードが一番楽しかったので、ボディーボード付きプランをおすすめします。

　エントランスで荷物チェックがあります。未開封のペットボトル1本は持ち込み可能と説明を受けた気がします（地元の人は水筒を持参していたような気がしますが、詳しく覚えていません）。浮き輪などは持ち込み不可です。園内にうきわはたくさんありますので、心配ありません。コインランドリーは13ドル（小）、18ドル（中）があり、二人で（中）を選択しました。カード対応ですがエラーになっている方も多かったので、現金をもっていた方が安心かもしれません。出し入れは終日何度でも可能です。ロッカーの近くにシャワーと更衣室があります。お湯は出ないので、少し肌寒いです。

　フードやドリンクの販売窓口は5個くらいあったのですが、当日はスタッフが1名で対応しており、昼食時は列ができていました。ツアーのリストバンドを付けていたせいか、クレジット決済時にパスポートのコピーの提示は求められませんでした。

　本パークは高速道路の近くに位置しているので、車以外では入れません。バスツアー以外ですと、パーク近隣まで公共バス＋歩行禁止区域を5ウーバーで移動（5分程度）またはレンタカーを使用することになると思います。公共バスと違い、ツアーバスであれば帰路で熟睡できるメリットもありますので、バスツアーがお勧めです。また、日本人女性の添乗員さんがとても親切で、安心して過ごすことができました。お写真も撮ってくださいました。

The pick-up and drop-off times were on schedule. The crew mostly spoke English and had little understanding of Japanese, but they were cheerful and provided very good service. I was unable to see any dolphins.

送迎の時間などは定刻通りでした。クルーの皆さんはほぼ英語で日本語はほとんど通じませんでしたが、にこやかでとても良い対応をしてもらいました。
イルカを見ることは出来ませんでした。

The water temperature was a bit low and it was cold, but I was glad to encounter a sea turtle. It was my first time snorkeling, and my 10-year-old son was also happy.
There are several staff members who speak Japanese, and they provide explanations in Japanese as well. About 80% of the tourists are Japanese.
There are no changing rooms, so we went in our swimsuits and wiped off our wet bodies before getting on the bus for the return trip. Some people were changing in the restroom, but there are only three stalls, so it gets crowded. It might be tough for those who are not good with the cold.

水温がやや低く、寒かったですが、ウミガメとも遭遇できて良かったです。初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、10歳の息子も喜んでいました。
スタッフには、日本語を話せる人が数名居て、説明は日本語でもしてくれますし、8割は日本人観光客です。
着替える場所は無いので、水着着用で行き、帰りは濡れた体を拭いてそのままバスに乗りました。トイレで着替えている方も居ましたが、３つしか無いので混みます。寒いのが苦手な人にはつらいかもしれません。

Loved the thought process here, but overall, kind of crowded. Our waiter had too many tables or he was just slow. Not sure. Food was ok, didn’t go home hungry. Music was great and the final show was awesome.

Our Movie Sites Tour driver was fun, knowledgeable and just a cool guy. The checkout lady at Auntie Pat’s Cafe was so friendly and funny. The whole day from pick-up to drop-off went so smoothly. We originally booked without transportation as we were going to rent a car but latter changed and added transportation. Kualoa staff are so professional. Highly recommend any tour there.

We were a tarty of 4 (two couple) from California:
1. Overall impression is okay but not great because the steak was served cold and chewy.
2. Dancing activities are great!

This time I was with my 3.5-year-old, and thanks to the flippers, they were able to swim smoothly! The kids said this trip was the most fun they've ever had, and it seems they really enjoyed jumping off the boat. The hamburger was hearty with a strong meat flavor, large, satisfying, and delicious—I was very pleased! The drinks were all-you-can-drink, and the kids loved the warm cocoa after coming out of the sea. The staff were all wonderful, and the beach volleyball and conversations were fantastic. Thank you so much!!!!

今回小学3.5年と一緒でしたが、足ビレがあるおかげでスイスイ泳げていました！子供達は今回の旅で一番楽しかったと言っていて、船からの飛び込みも楽しかったようです。ハンバーガーはミート感がしっかりあって、大きく食べ応えがあり美味しくて大満足です！！ドリンクも飲み放題で、子供たちは海から上がった後のあったかいココアがお気に入りでした。スタッフさん達も皆さん素敵な方ばかりでビーチバレーにトークもサイコーでした。本当にありがとうございました！！！！

Due to the seasonal factors, the water volume of the waterfall was low, which was a bit disappointing. When I visited before, the water was so forceful that it splashed, so it might be better to go during the rainy season. On the way back, as expected, I slipped and fell on the muddy path, but by the way, I am 68 years old. I was able to climb even at this age!

季節的な事もあり滝の水量が少なくちょっと残念でした。以前行った時は水飛沫がかかる位の勢いだったので雨季に行くと良いのかも、帰り道は案の定ぬかるみの道で滑って転んでしまいましたが、因みに私は68歳です。
この年でも登れましたよー

I participated in many tours in Hawaii, but the one I enjoyed the most was this tour. The crystal-clear surface of the ocean was breathtaking.

It was also a good decision to go during low tide as much as possible.

ハワイでたくさんツアーの参加しましたが、
一番参加してよかったのがこのツアー。
透き通る見事な海面は絶景でした。

なるべく干潮のときを狙って行ったのも正解でした。

Highly recommend this tour! Awesome staff and best experience during our vacation in Oahu!

The perfect sunset cruise! Beautiful view of Honolulu. Great buffet and great crew. Great live music and Luau performance. Nice experience to share with family and friends.
Dinner food was superb also, you get a free drink (Mai Tai) on the house.
The top deck is a great spot for pictures and videos of sunset and Waikiki Beach.
We had such a Great time.

Really well organised activity with Kaimana Tours. Our driver Koa was excellent, providing lots of insights to the surroundings during our drive there. Pickup was on time, in a comfortable spacious van. We arrived and were first in line to get tickets which was simple and organised. The snorkeling gear was great, both sizing and quality for what we needed. I’d recommend going on the 6am pickup, as by the time we left at 11, it was getting really busy and there were not many places with shade. Kaimana offer umbrellas & chairs for hire too.

The staff was fun, and we quickly made our way to the sandbar. The sea was beautiful, and it became a memorable experience! Thank you very much.

スタッフさんも楽しくってあっという間にサンドバーへ
海は綺麗だし思い出になりました！
ありがとうございました。

This was my third visit. Some attractions were closed, which was disappointing, but I was able to ride Tornado and Shaka three times each. The staff were all cheerful and friendly, and I had a very enjoyable time. I especially appreciated the thoughtful care from the Japanese woman at the reception, who embodied the spirit of hospitality. I definitely want to go again next year!

今回3回目でした。アトラクションはいくつか閉鎖中で、残念でしたが、トルネードとシャカを3回ずつ出来ました。スタッフはみんな陽気でフレンドリーて、とても楽しい時間でした。特に受付係の日本人女性の方が、おもてなし精神で細やかな配慮をして頂きありがたかったですヨ^_^
来年も是非行きたいと思います♪

This is a cruise where you can enjoy a leisurely sunset. It sails from Aloha Tower to the area around Diamond Head and returns while you enjoy the sunset. From the sea, you can see the hotels of Waikiki and the sunset illuminating Diamond Head. The climax is the beautiful sunset. All the passengers went out onto the deck to enjoy the sunset. There is also live music on board, creating a fantastic atmosphere. You can also purchase light snacks, making it easy to enjoy the experience.

ゆっくりサンセットを楽しめるクルーズです。
アロハタワーから、ダイヤモンドヘッド辺りまで航行し、サンセットを楽しみながら戻ります。
海からみる、ワイキキのホテル群、西陽のあたるダイヤモンドヘッド。
クライマックスは美しいサンセット。

船内には生演奏も入り、雰囲気抜群。
軽いおつまみも購入できるので、気軽に楽しめます。

We drove on a bumpy forest road with a big truck, and the views of the Ko'olau Mountains and China Man Hat Island were very beautiful. The driver was a woman, and she was skilled at driving and very entertaining to talk to.

大きなトラックでガタガタ道のアップダウンの激しい林道を走り、コーラウ山脈や海にはChina Man Hat Islandが見えてとても綺麗でした。
とくにドライバーが女性で運転も上手でおしやべりがとても面白かった。
