All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

I challenged myself with my 3rd-grade daughter and my husband to a 150m adventure. The boat ride was fast and thrilling, and the parasailing took us up to a height close to the highest point, allowing us to enjoy a panoramic view of Waikiki. We really felt the essence of Hawaii.

The explanation of the doctor's passion for the starry sky was very good. As the sky darkened, I was moved by how many more stars became visible to the naked eye. The explanations are in English, but I think everyone can enjoy them since they are all well-known stars. Not only stars, but we also got to see Venus, Saturn, Mars, and shooting stars, making it a tour that met my expectations.

博士の星空への情熱が伝わる説明がとても良かったです。空が暗くなるにつれて、肉眼で見える星が増えていき感動しました。説明は英語ですが誰もが知る星ばかりなので楽しめると思います。
星だけではなく、金星、土星、火星、そして流れ星も見られて期待通りのツアーでした。

The food, service, and entertainment were very good. The trip was organized well. Very clean facility and the experience was so enjoyable. We loved the sunset and fireworks while onboard. We'd take friends along on another cruise in the future. This is a great idea for special occasions.

The crew and experience was great. The organization of the trip was well done. My child often gets motion sickness and the ship was so smooth they didn't even feel a thing. The activities were fun, first time paddleboarding and we had a blast.

The musicians were wonderful and entertaining. Loved the hawaiian music along with contemporary songs.

The only thing that made it less of a 5 star, was something the crew could not control. We should have checked the timing of the tides. We were expecting to be walking on sand in the middle of the ocean, but I suspect we picked a day where it was hightide, so we never "walked" on the sand, we were swimming the entire time.

My husband and I went for our honeymoon and we loved it. It's a really nice location for kayaking and snorkling! I love that it's self giuded and easy to understand. The staff were also the nicest☺️

Eight years ago when I participated, the weather was good, and the sandbar was at knee height, which made it very enjoyable.

The snorkeling felt like swimming in a line, and the staff was right there with us in the water, which was reassuring.

Now that my child has grown a bit, we participated again, but this time the water was at adult chest height, and my child couldn't enjoy it. The snorkeling spot was murky, and we couldn't see many fish.

Previously, the staff entered the water with us and kept an eye on us, but this time they just watched from the boat.

It was quite scary when we drifted off course due to the waves.

I participated this time because I felt safe before, but while it seems like anyone, even beginners or those who aren't good swimmers, can join, it's challenging when dealing with nature.

Personally, I think I would have skipped snorkeling today because it was quite frightening. It would have been better to have some information about the sea conditions today, like if there were more waves than usual.

There wasn't much confirmation of the number of people before and after entering the water, so I was left wondering about the safety measures in place.

I wouldn't really recommend this for people who don't have much experience in the sea.

以前（8年前に）参加した時は天候も良く、サンドバーも膝ぐらいの高さでとても楽しめました。

シュノーケルも列になって泳ぐという感じで
スタッフの方が一緒に海に入ってすぐ側にいて
安心できました。

子供が出来て少し大きくなったので
また参加したのですが

今回は大人の胸ぐらいの高さで
子供は楽しめずでした。
シュノーケルの場所も海は濁っていて
魚はあんまり見えませんでした。

またシュノーケルも以前はスタッフの方が
一緒に海に入って見守ってくれてましたが
船の上から見てるだけでした。

波に流されてコースから外れると結構怖くて、、

以前が安心して参加出来たので
今回参加したのですが

初心者だったり、泳ぎが得意じゃなくても
参加できます！という雰囲気ですが

自然相手なので難しいとは思いますが

個人的には今日はシュノーケルはやらずにいたと思います。結構怖かったので。
いつもより波があるよ今日の海の情報とかがあると
もう少し説明があると良かったと思います。

海に入る前後の
人数確認とかも特にされてなかったので
安全対策とかどうしているのかは謎ででした。


海の経験がそんなにない人にはあまりおすすめできません。。

Transpo- very good
Overall tour is very informative and enjoyable. Tour guides are great. Able to see uss misouri,uss bowfin and uss arizona memorial. The museum is great! I was talking to one of the personnel and he even gave me story about pearl harbour. Food serve is delicious. Able to meet my kababayan from Philippines. Thank you

As a 50-year-old man, I unfortunately couldn't surf due to back pain. My two sons, a college student and a high school student, participated in a group lesson. The college student had only tried surfing once about six years ago, while this was the high school student's third experience.

First, they showed a video in the shop and explained the basics before heading to the beach, which was educational and great! Once we got to the beach, they taught us how to stand on the board and we quickly went into the sea!

As we paddled out, the instructor suddenly pushed the board towards the shore and shouted, "Paddle!" and just like that, we were surfing! Wow! I managed to stand up and rode for over 100 meters from the open sea to the shore.

After that, my sons and another participant took turns catching waves, and everyone was able to ride for a long time! However, I later heard that because the rides were long, paddling back to shore multiple times was really tough for them!

I had also requested drone footage, so they took over 150 photos and 11 videos of the two of them. The drone video was high resolution and very beautiful. It was a bit expensive, but I was satisfied.

Next time we come, I hope to receive a higher level of instruction!

50男の私は残念ながら腰痛発症でサーフィンできず。息子達二人、大学生と高校生でグループレッスンに参加しました。大学生は6年ほど前に一度体験サーフィンのみ、高校生は今回が3回目の体験サーフィン。
まず初めにショップ内でビデオを見せてくれて、基本的なことを説明受けてから浜辺に出るのが教育的で良いですね！
浜に出るとボードを使って立ち方を教えてくれてすぐに海へ！
パドリングで沖へ出ると、すぐに先生が岸に向かってボードを押し「パドリング！」っていきなり波乗り！
あら！立てた！いきなり沖から岸まで100m以上乗れました。
その後も他の参加者一人と息子達の3人で次々に波に乗り、皆、ながーく乗れました！
しかし後で聞いたら一回の乗れる距離が長いので、岸から沖まで何回もパドリングで戻るのがとても辛かったと！
ドローンの撮影も頼んでおいたので、二人で150枚以上の写真と11個のビデオを撮影してもらえました。ドローンのピデオは高解像度でとてもキレイ。ちょっと高かったけど満足しました。
次に来たら、もう一段階上の指導をして

I had a great time with activities that you can't find in Japan. Some were thrilling, almost like an amusement park, and I couldn't help but shout out! There was also a children's zone where little ones could have fun.

There were no masks or social distancing, but I didn't mind since I went on a weekday. We took a shuttle bus and arrived around 10:30, and until about noon, it felt like we had the place to ourselves with hardly any wait time, which was comfortable! After that, it got a bit busier, but it was still good because we could ride after a short wait.

日本には無いアクティビティでとても楽しめました
プールというより遊園地のようなスリルがあるものもあり思わず声が出ちゃいました！！
子どものゾーンもあり小さなお子さまはそちらでも楽しむことが出来ます。

マスクやソーシャルディスタンスは全くありませんが、行ったのが平日だったからか気になりませんでした。
送迎バスで行き、10時30分ごろに着きましたが12時くらいまでは貸しきりのような状態でほとんど待ち時間無く快適でした！その後も少し混んではきたものの、少し待てば乗れたので良かったです

I was a bit scared because I'm not good with roller coasters, but it didn't feel like I was floating like on a roller coaster. I could see Waikiki from the air, and it was very pleasant and fun!!

There were four of us, two Japanese girls in their twenties, and a family of five foreigners. The Japanese girls suggested, "Shall we take photos together?" so instead of buying photos, we exchanged them via AirDrop after parasailing.

We were making a lot of noise and having fun, so maybe that's why we got dropped into the sea?! But the others landed safely on the boat (getting dropped was also incredibly fun). The captain and crew were very cheerful and nice, and we had a valuable and enjoyable experience.

We did this on August 5th, and the weather was good with not much wind, so it felt nice. However, the boat rocked while we were on it, and it seems that on windy days, it can rock in the air too, so I think it would be a good idea to take motion sickness medication for peace of mind.

Everyone gives tips before getting off, so we gave a tip of $10 per person. I think it's good to prepare a towel in case you get dropped, along with a camera and some cash.

If you're hesitating, I definitely recommend trying it out!!

私はジェットコースターが苦手なので少し怖いなと思っていたのですが、ジェットコースターみたいにフワッと体が浮くような事もなく、空中からワイキキを見渡せ、とても気持ちいいし楽しかったです！！

私達4人と日本人の20代女の子2人と外国人家族5人でした。日本人の女の子達が「写真を撮りあいっこしませんか？」と声をかけてくれたので、写真は買わずにパラセイリングが終わった後、エアドロで交換しました。

私達はキャーキャー騒いでクルーやキャプテンにも声をかけて楽しそうにしていたせいか⁈海に落とされましたが、他の人達は落とされずにボートに着地していました（落とされたのもめちゃくちゃ楽しかったです）
キャプテンもクルーもとても明るくてイイ人だったし、貴重な楽しい体験ができました。

8/5にしましたが、天気も良く風もあまりなかったので気持ち良かったけれど、ボートに乗っている間揺れるし、風が強い日は上空でも揺れるみたいなので酔い止めの薬を飲んでおいたら安心だと思います。

みんな降りる前にチップを渡すので、私達は一人10ドルのチップを渡しました。カメラと少しの現金と落とされた時の為にバスタオルを用意しておいたらいいと思います。

迷っている方は是非体験して欲しいです！！

I went with my 6-year-old son and my husband. My son came back excited, saying, "I want to go again! The water slide was the best!!"

As for my husband, he said, "It was definitely fun, but we didn't have enough time at all. We chose the premium course, but it felt like a waste of time to go get drinks and food even with the all-you-can-drink and all-you-can-eat options, so I think a simpler course would be sufficient. The Japanese guide was with us only at the beginning and the end, but I appreciated the explanations. There was also time spent waiting in line, so we just didn't have enough time."

6歳息子と主人と2人で行ってきました。
息子は「また行きたい！ウォータースライダー最高！！」と興奮して帰ってきました。

主人の方は
「確かに楽しかったけど、時間が全然足りなかった。
プレミアムコースにしたけど、飲み放題や食べ放題でも飲み物や食べ物をとりに行く時間がもったいないから、シンプルなコースで十分だと思う。
日本語ガイドさんが最初と最後だけついてくれたけど、説明してくれたのはありがたかった。
列に並ぶ時間もあるから、とにかく時間が足りなかった。」と言っていました。

I planned my day starting in the morning. We gathered at Ross Dress for Less at 8 AM. There were other buses for different tours, so I got a bit confused, but I was able to board without any issues. After passing a few more stops, we rode the bus for about 30 minutes to the sandbar's boat dock.

When we arrived, we had to fill out a consent form, but there were Japanese staff there, so it was fine to do it in Japanese. The explanations were also in Japanese, allowing us to smoothly board the boat.

Inside the boat, we had assigned seats, which was reassuring.

On the boat, we could help ourselves to donuts and drinks.

At the sandbar, in addition to snorkeling, we could also enjoy boating and stand-up paddleboarding. Since it was shallow, we could relax and have fun without worry.

We had about two hours to play, so we had plenty of time to enjoy ourselves.

I recommend this experience because you can enjoy various activities for this price.

By the way, we returned to Waikiki around 12:30 PM.

朝からのプランにしました。
8時にROSS FOR LESSに集合でした。このツアー以外のバスも止まってたので、少し迷いましたが、無事乗ることができました。他にもいくつか停留場所を通り、30分くらいバスに揺られ、サンドバーの船乗り場へ。

着いたら、承諾書を書かないといけないのですが、ここでは日本の方がいたので日本語で大丈夫でした。説明も日本語で、スムーズに船に乗ることができました。

船の中では、席が決まっているので、安心でした。

船の中では、ドーナツとドリンクをセルフサービスでもらうことができました。

サンドバーでは、シュノーケリング以外に、ボートやサップもできました。足がつくところなので、安心して楽しむことができました。


遊ぶ時間も2時間はあったのでたっぷり遊べました。

この値段で、色んなことが楽しめるのでおすすめです。

ちなみにワイキキに帰ってきたら12時半ごろでした。

This was an amazing experience! The staff is so kind and there is so much to do!

The guide was very kind, and I really had a great time! It was thrilling! On the day of the event, the dust will make your clothes very dirty, so it's definitely better to participate in clothes that you don't mind getting dirty.

ガイドさんは皆んな優しいですし、
本当に楽しかったです！スリル満点です！
当日は土埃で服がとても汚れるので、
汚れてもいい服で参加した方が絶対いいです。

I participated in the "Touch without getting wet" experience, and there were about 30 participants. We were divided into three teams and enjoyed touching the dolphins, but depending on the instructor's approach, you could end up completely soaked.

Our team had kids who got drenched from head to toe. The adults were also quite wet.

Still, everyone enjoyed the experience, and I can recommend it! However, I suggest preparing clothes that you don't mind getting wet and bringing a change of clothes to fully enjoy the experience.

’濡れずにいるかと触れ合える’に参加しましたが、３０人くらい参加していました。３チームに分かれイルカにタッチを楽しみましたが、インストラクターのさじ加減によってはずぶ濡れです

私達のチームは子供が頭から水を被頭から足までずぶ濡れでした。
大人も相当ビシャビシャでした。

それでも参加者はみんな楽しんでおりましたし、おすすめできます！
ただ、思いっきり楽しむには濡れても良い服や着替えを準備をすることをおすすめします。

Our guides were wonderful! Saw lots and lots of turtles :)

I experienced surfing with three children and five people. It was a lot of fun. The three sessions of surfing ended in the blink of an eye, so I wish we could have done five.

子供3人と5人で体験しました。とても楽しい波乗りでした。3回の波乗りは、あっと言う間に終わったので、5回乗れたら良かったと思う。

It goes higher than I imagined. I think the time spent in the air was less than 10 minutes, but it was just right.

The boat sways quite a bit, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you're prone to seasickness.

想像していた以上に高いところまで登っていきます。上空での滞在時間は10分もないくらいだったと思いますが、むしろちょうどよかったです。

船はかなり揺れるので、船酔いする方は酔い止め内服をお勧めします。

Beautiful views and worth every penny spent! Tour guide was funny and knowledgeable.

The crab was really tasty. Overall, really liked this menu. There's also entertainment on-board. We really liked walking around the boat and the observation deck on the top floor of the boat was my favorite. There were lounge chairs on the top deck so it was the perfect place to catch sunset.

Tips:
-You can do menu substitutions (ex. vegan, fish instead of steak, etc.) if you request it 24-hours prior

Absolutely LOVED this dinner menu. We opted for the Friday Fireworks cruise with window seating. And it was worth it! I had done the other menus before (Buffet, Casual, & Deluxe) so I was looking forward to try out the fine dining menu.

The only not-so-great thing was the time it took for us to get any beverages. Our waiter passed us every time. We waited and waited - everyone else around us was being served. Finally, we flagged someone down but even they also took a long time so we had to flag a 2nd person.

The food was so delicious. Would definitely recommend the menu! This options also comes with premium drink tickets. We had mocktails which were delicious.

Wonderful experience exploring North Shore mountain range, & explanation of what we were seeing flor and fauna. Especially enjoyed exploring the richness of the fertile land ️ scenery ⛰️, Mahalo!!

I felt very reassured to participate with the Japanese staff present. Thank you, Yukiko, for a great time. The sandbar was beautiful, and we were lucky to see both turtles and manta rays while searching for turtles. During the last snorkeling around the coral reef, I happened to see a big turtle up close, which was a shocking experience that I have never experienced before. All the staff, including the captain, were very kind. Thank you so much!

日本語スタッフがいて、とても安心して参加できました。Yukikoさん、楽しい時間をありがとうございました。
サンドバーの綺麗さ、亀探しでは亀もマンタも見ることが出来てラッキーでした。
最後のサンゴの周りでのシュノーケリングは、偶然にも大きな亀を間近で見ることが出来て、今まで体験したことが無い、衝撃的な感動をする事ができました。
船長も含めて、全てのスタッフさんが親切でした。
本当にありがとうございました！

I was miraculously able to see a manta ray, and I was so happy! Of course, I also saw many honu (sea turtles). The volleyball and snorkeling activities with the staff were a lot of fun, and the kids were thrilled! The burger for lunch was really delicious, just as the reviews said. All the staff were wonderful, and it was a fantastic tour!

奇跡的にマンタも見れ、幸せ〜
もちろんホヌもたくさん見れました。
お兄さんたちとやったバレーや、
シュノーケルはとても楽しくて
子供達も大喜びでした！
昼食のバーガーは口コミどおり
本当においしかったです。
スタッフ皆さん良い人で
素敵なツアーでした！

Fantastic show and we really enjoyed it even my kids. However pick up time should have been earlier as stated. Due to traffic we were just in time for the show and disappointed we couldn’t tried the activities provided. However it was a great experience and show. My kids enjoyed the show. Variety of foods from buffet was good however when you are the last table, whatever are left that’s it. Disappointed as the stir fry noodles was finished and when asked if there are more noodles, no answer was provided. Do hope next time you can cater for all the guest. Please advise all guest to put mosquito repellent as we were bitten by mosquitoes on our legs. Great and beautiful pictures taken by the staff and it’s digital, sent link to your phone and pictures can be downloaded for free. Thank you. Memories will treasure. Great performances and talented staff. Love the musics and dances. Highly recommended. Mahalo.

The zip line in the morning was wonderful, both the air and the scenery. My sixth-grade daughter also had a great time, sliding down on her own and even with the instructor since she's light. It was just an incredibly fun time that flew by.

朝一番のジップライン、空気も景色も素晴らしかったです。小学6年生の娘も、一人で滑ったり、軽いのでインストラクターの方と滑ったり、とにかく楽しい時間があっという間に過ぎました。

I was looking for a parasailing tour with transportation because the distance from the hotel I was staying at to the meeting point was quite far, and this was the only tour available on weekends, so I booked it the day before departure. It turned out to be about a 15-minute walk from the hotel to the meeting point, which was surprisingly easy. For those staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village, it's very close. I had read in reviews that some people experienced seasickness, so I took motion sickness medication in advance. When we got on the boat, there were two families from the mainland U.S. and us, and everyone was friendly and welcoming, making it a lot of fun. When it was our turn to go parasailing, we took off at 150 feet, which was very high and a bit scary. However, everyone on the boat waved at us, and the views of Waikiki and Diamond Head were amazing, making it a wonderful experience. We were up in the air for over 10 minutes, so I think it's a great value tour. I didn't experience any seasickness, and it was truly enjoyable. I highly recommend it!

宿泊しているホテルから集合場所まで距離があるため送迎付きのパラセイリングを探していましたが、土日やっているのは、当ツアーのみだったため出国前日に申込みました。宿泊ホテルから集合場所までは徒歩15分くらいで、意外と簡単に行けました。ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジ宿泊の方はすぐです。口コミで船酔いすると記載があったため事前に酔い止めを服用し、いざボートにのってみると、アメリカ本国からきた家族2組と私たちで、皆さん気さくでアットホームな方たちで、とても楽しかったです。いざ、自分たちの番が来て、パラセイリングで飛び立ちましたが、150フィート、とても高くて怖かったです。でも、ボートから皆が手を振ってくれ、ワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドの景色が素晴らしく、とても良い体験ができました。10分以上飛んでいるので、お得なツアーだと思います。船酔いもせず、本当に楽しかったです。おススメです！

The weather was great, and I had a wonderful time! The driver who picked us up to Waikiki had a lovely smile and was very pleasant, which made me feel good from the moment we were greeted. The Japanese guide's explanations in Japanese once we arrived at the port definitely added to my sense of security. The live music on board, donuts, drinks, and above all, the presence of a restroom made it comfortable for families with children.

お天気にも恵まれ、満喫できました！
ワイキキまで送迎のドライバーさんは笑顔が素敵で感じが良く、お迎えの瞬間から気分良く参加できました。
港に着いてからの日本人のガイドさんの日本語での説明はやはり安心感が増しました。
船内での生演奏、ドーナツ、ドリンク、そしてなにより、トイレ付きというのが、子連れには安心して過ごせました。

The view was very nice! The staff were friendly, and I had a great time. The landing was slow, so there was no strain on my legs and back.

とてもいい景色でした！
スタッフさんは感じがよくて、楽しめました。
着地もゆっくりで足腰に負担無かったです。

Apart from the check in , everything else was awesome. We got there 15 minutes early to check in, no place to wait, they just told us to come back when it is time.
My kids really loved and enjoyed the thé parasail and jet ski. The videos and photos taken were very nice too. It was good.
