All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

We had a wonderful time and the food was yummy! We had a blast and this cruise is totally appropriate for kids and family’s. The staff was amazing and super friendly!!!

Went here last year during the firework show 10/10

This was a great experience. The Captain was very attentive (I didn’t know how to snorkel but he took the time to try and guide me) the staff was super helpful and informative. They provided snacks and coffee. The water was beautiful and we saw lots of turtles. I would highly recommend this tour you will love it.

Hopefully will have another one soon! Everything was great!

We had a great time! The dancers, food, and everything was enjoyable!

My family and I really enjoyed our tour. The scenery is astonishing. Mesmerising view. Our tour guide/driver Precious was very entertaining, friendly, and enthusiastic. Hopefully we can back again to try other tours.

My 3 teen daughters and I had a great trip. Julia was a fantastic tender and our capain was so helpful all around. The BBQ was enjoyed by all. We made 3 mini stops along the way, first at the sandbar, next at a turtle watching spot and finally snorkeling where we saw 2 turtles and a ton of fish. Highly recommend!!

The tour guide is very nice, given a lot of information about which movies were filming at which spots.

Definitely need sunscreen! We enjoyed this tour, especially the historic importance of the place. Take a lot pictures.

The next time we visit, I'll probably pick a different tour. The views great but nothing spectacular at all.

The volcanic activity has already calmed down, allowing us to see the areas where lava has flowed and solidified. However, gas is still continuously being emitted, and we can observe that extensive volcanic activity is occurring underground from above.

It was both terrifying and moving to see from the helicopter how the lava flowed over a vast area, causing an entire village to disappear.

I received an email the day before asking me to confirm my reservation by phone, but I was participating in another tour, and when I tried to contact them, no one answered the emergency contact number. Even after leaving a message on the voicemail and sending an email, I received no response.

Moreover, despite it being clearly stated that lunch was included, when I asked the guide around noon, I was told that this tour did not include lunch, and I was even laughed at. I found out on the day that the flight times to Hawaii Island and Oahu Island were completely different, which really stressed me out.

I at least wanted lunch to be provided. For some reason, I was taken to a Japanese-owned bakery in a rural town that I had no interest in, and I wondered what the point was of being asked in advance what I wanted to eat.

The guide provided very little explanation about historical events or legends, mostly just talking about the eruptions from a few years ago. I was disappointed as the stories were only what I had already read in the news or guidebooks.

すでに火山活動は落ち着いているので、溶岩が流れて固まった後をみることができ、まだガスは継続して出続けているので、広大な範囲で火山活動が地下で起こっていることも上空から見ることができます。

ものすごく広い範囲に溶岩が流れ、村ひとつが消滅していってしまったことがヘリから見られて、恐ろしくもあり、感動でもありました。

前日にメールが来て、予約確認の連絡を電話するように書かれて来ましたが、別のツアーに参加していて連絡が遅くなると閉まっていて緊急連絡先にさえ誰も出ず。留守番電話にメッセージを残しても、メールで返事をしても向こうからの返信はありませんでした。

しかも「昼食付」としっかり書かれていたのに、１２時頃にガイドに聞くと、このツアーには昼食は付いていないと言われ、かつ、鼻で笑われました。ハワイ島に向かう飛行機の時間も、オアフ島に向かう飛行機の時間も全く違うことが当日に分かり、本当に焦りました。

せめて昼食は出してほしかったです。なぜか全く興味のない田舎町の日本人経営のパン屋に連れていかれましたが、事前に食べたいものを聞かれた意味はなんだったんでしょうか。

ガイドも歴史的なことや伝説はほとんど説明がなく、数年前の噴火の話ばかり。ニュースやガイドブックに載っていた話だけだったのでがっかりでした。

This was my first time participating. It took about an hour to get to the location from the Waikiki area. After taking a short nap with the kids, our excitement grew as we arrived. The weather was a bit cloudy, but when the sun came out, it got really hot. There were Japanese staff members, so I didn't have any particular issues. I think it was less than ten minutes after we set sail, but we quickly arrived at the destination and headed straight to the sandbar. At first, the water felt cold, but we got used to it right away, and the kids were having a blast! After that, we went snorkeling. We saw a turtle right after we set sail, but during snorkeling...

今回、初めて参加させて頂きました。
ワイキキエリアからは1時間程度で現地に着けました。子供達と一緒に軽い仮眠を取り現地に着くと、テンションは上がって来ました。天気は多少曇ってはいましたが、日が当たると一気に暑くなりました。日本人スタッフもいて、特に困る事はありませんでした。出航して、10分も経っていないと思いますが、あっという間に現地に着き、早速サンドバーへ。最初は冷たいと感じましたがすぐに慣れて、はしゃぐ子供達♪その後シュノーケリングへ。出航直後にもカメさんに会いましたがシュノーケリング中には

I participated with my mother/daughter! In the morning, the weather was bad, and there was thunder and rain in the distance, but by early afternoon it cleared up, and I was so happy to see dolphins and whales up close. It was quite rocky, so those prone to seasickness should be careful! Snorkeling was fun, but the waterslide was absolutely amazing and gave a fantastic sense of freedom! The friendly staff and the Japanese guide made it easy to enjoy the experience until the end. I want to participate again with my friends! Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart. Mahalo!!

母/娘で参加しました！
朝は天候が悪く、遠くの方で雷雨も鳴ってましたが昼過ぎには晴れてきてイルカもクジラも近くで見ることができ、嬉しかったです。かなり揺れたので船酔いする方は注意！シュノーケルも楽しかったですがウォータースライダーが開放感抜群で最高でした！フレンドリーなスタッフの皆さんと日本人のガイドさんもいたので安心して最後まで楽しむことができました。
また友達と参加したいと思います！
心からありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

We participated as a family of ten, including my parents and siblings. Both the guide and staff were very kind, and we had a great time. The weather was nice, and the beautiful sea and sky were amazing! The water temperature was a bit cold, but it was manageable once we got used to it. The sandbar was knee-deep, and we could swim comfortably at the snorkeling point, where we also saw fish in the coral area. The hamburgers for lunch were delicious, and everything was great. It was a satisfying tour for the whole family.

両親と兄弟家族で10人で参加しました。ガイドもスタッフもとても親切ですごく楽しめました。
天気もよく、きれいな海！空！最高でした！水温は少し冷たいですが、入っているうちに慣れる程度でした。サンドバーの深さは膝ぐらい、シュノーケリングポイントでも気持ちよく泳げて珊瑚のエリアでは魚もみることが出来ました。ランチのハンバーガーもおいしくて何から何までよかったです。家族みんな満足なツアーでした。

We had a great time and felt safe! The coffee was awesome!

I was very satisfied to see many sea turtles and fish. The weather was bad, but the ocean was very beautiful. We also saw dolphins on the boat during our travels.

海カメも魚もたくさん見れて大満足です。天気は悪かったですが海がとても綺麗でした。移動の船ではイルカも見れました。

My only complaint was that I couldn't see the sunset and the show at the same time. But it was so wonderful and relaxing. The food was great. The entertainment was amazing. The view was breathtaking.

The staff were all incredibly cheerful and kind, making my time there very enjoyable. I wasn't expecting much from the lunch hamburger, but it was surprisingly delicious. There was plenty of free time, and I thoroughly enjoyed snorkeling, and I was able to see turtles as well. I'm glad I signed up for the tour! Although rain was forecasted, we miraculously had sunny then cloudy weather, and it wasn't particularly cold, so I had a great day. I would love to sign up for the sandbar tour again.

とにかくスタッフの方達、全員すごく楽しげな親切な人達ばかりでとても楽しく過ごせました。ランチのハンバーガーもそれほど期待していなかったのですが、すっごく美味しくて驚きました。自由時間も十分にありますし、シュノーケリングも十分に楽しめますし、亀もしっかり見れましたし、ツアー申し込んで良かったです！雨の予報でしたが、奇跡的に晴れのち曇りという天気で特に寒い事もなく1日過ごせました。またサンドバーのツアー申し込みたいぐらいです。

It was so amazing and beautiful. I can’t wait to go back and try a different adventure.

There were no issues with the pickup from the hotel, the guidance to the boarding, or the transfer to the hotel after disembarking.

As for the whales, they would briefly appear at the surface and then dive below for about 15 minutes. Many participants were intently watching the surface of the water, and when a whale did appear, cheers erupted, with everyone shifting their gaze in that direction, repeating this process.

My initial expectation was to see the whales up close while being splashed by seawater, but it turned out to be more of a distant viewing experience. The captain made efforts to capture them on camera, but I felt that approaching this with high expectations carries significant risks.

集合ホテルからのピックアップ、乗船迄の誘導、下船後のホテルへの移動については全く問題ありませんでした。
問題のクジラですが、水面に僅かに姿を現したかと思うと、15分程度海面下に潜ってしまいます。
多数の参加者が目を凝らして海面を注視しているので、現れると歓声が上がり、そちらの方向に全員が視線を移す、と言う繰り返し。
事前のイメージでは、海水を浴びながらクジラを間近で見られる、と言うモノでしたが、かなり遠景でのウォッチングでした。
船長さんも努力下さり、何とかカメラには納められましたが、大きな期待を持って臨むにはリスクが高いと思いました。

The friendliest staff and best boat ride around! Best day ever!!

Food was really yummy, and the entertainment was so fun! A fun date night away from restaurants

We encountered dolphins right after setting sail, but when I jumped into the water, they had already swum away, which was a bit disappointing. However, a second opportunity came quickly, and when I jumped in again, I was able to see the dolphins up close and felt like I was swimming with them! During the snorkeling afterward, I encountered sea turtles multiple times and was able to fully enjoy the underwater world of Hawaii.

出航してすぐにイルカに出会う事ができ、海に飛び込むと、もうイルカが遠くにいってしまっていて、少し残念に思いました。しかし、すぐに2度目が来て、急いで飛び込むと、今度はイルカを間近で見る事ができ、一緒に泳いでいる感覚でした！その後のシュノーケルでは、海亀に何度も出会い、ハワイの海の世界を満喫する事ができました。

loved the experience, especially with the naturalists!! would recommend to bring sunscreen, it can get hot on the decks. the boat will wander around until a whale is spotted, and stick to that spot for the majority of the time

Had a great time. Definitely would recommend the Royal seating. We left an hour early and arrived a few minutes late, so plan your time wisely with traffic. All you can eat buffet was worth it. Had a few great laughs, enjoyed all the entertainment, crowd participation and cultural teachings. A must do on your list.

We had an awesome time. Checking in was a breeze. The crew was friendly and entertaining! Definitely had the best captain who took her time to track down dolphins and even whales for us to see. A must do if you’re in Honolulu.

5:55 meeting time
After about an hour's drive by microbus, we headed to the West Coast.
The temperature was a bit low and there was some wind, so it's advisable to bring something to wear.
The boat also swayed, so I wouldn't recommend it for those who are prone to motion sickness.
Although we didn't end up seeing dolphins, we did see whales and sea turtles while snorkeling along the way.
The sea was a bit cold, so we couldn't stay in for too long.
I heard that there’s a plan from Honolulu where you can see dolphins while going to see sea turtles, so I think I'll choose that next time.
The staff, including the Japanese staff, were all very nice, and I had a great time using the service.

5：55集合
1時間ほどマイクロバスで移動し、西海岸へ
やや気温は低めで風もあったため、羽織れるものは持っておいた方が無難。
船も揺れるため、乗り物酔いしやすい人にはおすすめできない。
イルカは結局見ることはできなかったが、途中クジラとシュノーケリングでウミガメは見ることができた。
海が少し寒くあまり長時間は入れなかった。
ホノルル発のウミガメを見に行くプランでもイルカが見れるとのことで、次はそちらにしようと思う。
日本人スタッフはじめ、スタッフがいい人ばかりで楽しく利用できた。

Fantastic day, long but we’ll organized and there is so much to see and learn. Our guide Kimoke’o was knowledgeable and gracious! Great stories, kept us all laughing too. Thank you so much for a wonderful day and for sharing the day with us!

I was worried about the weather, but it was low tide, sunny, and calm—perfect conditions that were truly beautiful. I was also able to see the honu up close. I was informed that there might not always be staff who speak Japanese, but on my boat, there were two, and I was able to experience everything without any issues.

天候などが心配でしたが、干潮かつ晴天、無風で最高の条件でとても美しかったです。ホヌも間近で見ることができました。必ず日本語が話せるスタッフがいるとは限らないとのことでしたが、私の船には二人もいらっしゃり、何不自由なく体験できました。

The weather was absolutely beautiful, perfect for a day at the beach! I was so happy to see sea turtles both from the boat on the way there and while snorkeling (even though it was a bit far).

It was great to see that there were people who were properly addressing those who were breaking the rules, whether they were part of another tour or individuals. It showed that everyone is committed to preserving the beauty created by nature.

As mentioned in other reviews, it was still a bit chilly when getting in and out of the water during this season, so I recommend bringing a large towel or a cover-up.

天候が非常に良く、天国の海日和でした！！
向かうまでの船からも、シュノーケリング中も（少し遠かったけど）ウミガメを見ることができて幸せでした♫
また、別のツアーなのか個人で来てる人なのかわかりません、ルール違反をしている方を見つけてはきちんと注意等されていたところが、皆様がこの自然の生み出した美しさを保たれていることがわかりよかったです。
他のレビューにもある通り、時期的にまだ海にずっと入っていたり、上がったりすると寒かったのでちゃんと大きめのタオルや羽織を持っていくことをおすすめします。
