All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

All the explanations were in English, which left my family, who are not good at English conversation, quite confused. However, once the activities started, we were able to enjoy breathtaking views that made us forget about those concerns, and it turned out to be a very fun day. Next time, we will go to try horseback riding.

すべての説明が英語で英会話が苦手な私たち家族は戸惑うことが多かったです。
したしアクティビティがスタートするとそんなことも忘れるくらいの絶景が堪能できとても楽しい一日でした。
今度は乗馬体験をチャレンジしに行きます。

On this day, I participated in the ATV tour at Kualoa Ranch. The meeting time was 10:15, and the tour started at 12:00. The meeting place was very easy to find, and when the time came, a staff member holding a sign that said "Kualoa" guided us, so there was no confusion. Among the participants, there were only two groups of Japanese, including us.

On the bus ride there, the driver introduced various sights in English, allowing us to enjoy the scenery on the way. When we arrived for lunch, we immediately separated by tour type and checked in at the desk. There was no long wait, and the tour started smoothly.

The tour explanation was all in English, but the guide occasionally took photos for us, and whenever we reacted positively, they joined in to make it a fun atmosphere. Conversely, if we remained quiet due to our typical Japanese shyness, it might have felt a bit wasted. It's definitely better to enjoy it wholeheartedly!

After the tour ended, we had about an hour until the bus meeting time, so we decided to take a leisurely lunch break. We ordered burgers as the main dish and onion rings as a side. We ate around 14:30, and even sharing between the two of us was more than enough, leaving us satisfied.

The return bus ride was also very smooth, and we arrived in Waikiki by 16:30. It was a fulfilling day where we could play in nature and enjoy a delicious lunch.

この日はクアロアランチのバギーツアーに参加しました。集合時間は10:15で、ツアー開始は12:00。集合場所はとてもわかりやすく、時間になると「Kualoa」と書かれた看板を持ったスタッフの方が案内してくれたので迷うこともありませんでした。参加者の中で日本人は、私たちを含めて2グループだけでした。

行きのバスでは、運転手さんが英語でいろいろな見どころを紹介してくれて、景色を楽しみながら向かうことができました。ランチに到着すると、すぐにツアーの種類ごとに分かれてデスクで受付を行います。特に長く待つこともなく、スムーズにツアーがスタートしました。

ツアーの説明はすべて英語ですが、ガイドさんが時々写真を撮ってくれたり、こちらが少しでもノリよくリアクションをすると一緒に盛り上げてくれたりと、とても楽しい雰囲気でした。逆に、日本人特有のシャイな態度で静かにしていると、少しもったいないかもしれません。思い切って楽しんだ方が絶対に良いです！

ツアー終了後は、バスの集合時間まで約1時間あったので、のんびりランチタイムを取ることにしました。バーガーをメインに、サイドメニューはオニオンリングを注文。14:30頃に食べたのですが、2人でシェアしても十分な量で満足できました。

帰りのバスもとてもスムーズで、16:30にはワイキキに到着。大自然の中で思いきり遊べて、美味しいランチも楽しめた、大満足の1日になりました。

Although the time was short, the speed was quite exhilarating, and the children were pretty scared when we went over the waves, so I think three rounds of surfing was just right.

It was unfortunate that I couldn't take photos with my smartphone during the boarding process because there was paddling involved. Later, I received an email about purchasing photos and videos, but they were all similar pictures where you couldn't see faces, and they were expensive! I was also disappointed that I couldn't purchase just the videos.

時間は短かったですが、スピードがかなり出るのと波を越えて行く時に、子どもたちはかなり怖がったので、計3回の波乗りでちょうど良かったのかなと思います。
乗船時、漕ぐ作業があるので、スマホ撮影できなかったのが残念でした。
あとからメールに、写真・動画の購入のお知らせがきたのですが、同じような写真で顔もわからない写真ばかりでしかも高い！動画のみの購入ができず残念でした。

The opening is at 17:15 and it's first come, first served, but the actual opening is at 17:30, and you will be guided to your seats while taking photos, which makes it extremely late. Additionally, you will be split into two groups for seating, so just lining up early doesn’t guarantee good seats. The meal is a typical buffet style, but if you don’t grab everything in one round, they start clearing it away quickly. It’s tough, but I recommend taking two plates to get your food. Just when I thought the show was getting exciting, it ended nearly an hour earlier than expected. (It was supposed to end around 20:15, but it actually ended at 19:20.) It was so bad that I requested a refund, but I was told it was not eligible. The staff at Veltra were very sincere in their response, but the event itself was the worst.
The following note seems to be the basis for this:
By the way, the weather on the day was clear, and there were no traffic jams, yet we experienced the issues mentioned above. I strongly recommend going to see a different show.

開場が17:15かつ早いもの順と言っていますが、17:30に開場、写真を撮りながら席へ案内されるためめちゃくちゃ遅くなります。また、途中から二手に分かれて座席へ案内されるようになるため早く並んでいたから良い席になるわけではありません。食事は良くあるビュッフェスタイルですが、1周で取りきらないとあっという間に片付けが始まります。大変ですけどお皿を2枚もって料理を取ることをお勧めします。ショーが始まって盛り上がってきたと思ったら想定よりも1時間近く早く終了しました。（20:15ごろ終了とのことでしたが、実際は19:20でした）あまりにひどいので返金対応を求めましたが、対象外との返事でした。
ベルトラの方には誠心誠意対応していただきましたが、催事自体は最悪です。
以下の注意書きが根拠だそうです。
ちなみに当日の天候は晴れ、交通渋滞などはないにもかかわらず、
上記のようなことになります。
別のショーを見に行くことを強くお勧めします。

I went on the UTV Raptor Tour. Since the self-drive option was fully booked, I reserved the guided tour where the guide drives. The entire tour was in English, but it was fun because they spoke a little Japanese as well.

UTVラプターツアーに乗りました。
自走は予約がいっぱいで、ガイドが運転してくれるものを予約しました。
ツアーはすべて英語でしたが、少しだけ日本語を話してくれたので楽しかったです。

Before it started, I was really scared, but once I took off, it was truly fun! It felt like riding a trapeze, which was awesome. However, the boat was really rocky, so I definitely think motion sickness medication is necessary! Also, I was worried about whether I could take an Uber if I got wet on the way back, but there was only a long wait for a pickup, so I ended up walking back to Waikiki. However, since I was always looking at the beach, it felt like it went by in no time. It took about 30 minutes to get to the Hyatt.

始まる前は、すごく怖かったが飛んでしまえは、本当に楽しかったです！
空中ブランコに乗ってるみたいでサイコー
ただ船の揺れがすごいので酔い止めほんとに必要だと思いました！
あと帰りが濡れたらウーバーに乗れるか不安だったのですが、時間のかかるお迎えしかなくて結局歩いてワイキキまで戻りましたが、ずっとビーチを横目に見ながらなので、なんだかあっという間でした。時間的にはハイアットまで30分くらきかかりましたが

I also caught a glimpse of a sea turtle! The guide was very enthusiastic and spoke Japanese, so I felt at ease. I want to go again!

ウミガメもチラッと見えました！
ガイドさんはテンション高くて日本語も話せるので安心です。また行きたいです

Our guide was brilliant. We did the ride along and by far it was far more immersive and engaging then had we driven our selves. Our guide was so energetic and only too happy to share cultural insights. Both guides clearly loved their job and it showed through their enthusiasm and passion for what they did. Well worth it!

I was able to see both dolphins and sea turtles!

The support from the Japanese staff was excellent, and I felt comfortable even though it was my first time snorkeling.

イルカとウミガメ両方見れました！

日本人スタッフのサポートも手厚く、初めてのシュノーケルでも大丈夫でした。

I was disappointed that the expected low tide sandbar did not appear as anticipated. Personally, I felt that the time to the port and the boat ride was long, and I also had too much free time with the various activities.

期待した干潮のサンドバーが期待通りに現れなかったので残念でした。個人的には港迄と船の時間が長く感じられ、また各種アクティビティも時間を持て余し状態でした。

You will be watching the fireworks in the same area as those who are not participating in the luau. Additionally, people who are not participating can also view the show from outside. The dining time is short, and I couldn't even finish three drinks. Even though there were still tickets available, they abruptly closed the event. At this price, I think it would be much better to go to another restaurant.

花火はルアウに参加していない人と同じエリアで見ることになります。
また、ショーも参加してない人も外から見れます。
食事の時間も短く、ドリンク3杯も使いきれません。まだチケットが余ってるのにもう終了と無理矢理締め切られました。
この金額であれば他のレストランに行った方がよっぽど良いと思います。

I thoroughly enjoyed the ocean in Hawaii. Activities like banana boating were also fun. It was a luxurious experience condensed into three hours of extraordinary moments.

とにかくハワイの海を満喫しました。
バナナボートなどのアクティビティも楽しかったです。
非日常の体験を3時間に凝縮した贅沢な時間でした。

It was great and fun! The water was beautiful and blue.

The two-hour drive was incredibly fun. Everywhere you look, there are beautiful and magnificent landscapes. It felt just like Jurassic Park. Thank you for such a precious time.

2時間のドライブ、凄く楽しかったです。どこをみても、きれいで雄大なけしきばかり。ジュラシックパークそのもの。とても貴重な時間をありがとうございました。

The driver was kind and guided us to the sunrise spot, and we had plenty of time. We were able to enjoy snorkeling without worrying about the time.

運転手さんが親切で、日の出場所を案内してくれ、時間もたっぷりあった。
シュノーケルを時間を気にせず、楽しめた。

The driver was very cheerful and it was fun. Thank you very much.
I heard they can communicate in English, but that was not a problem.

とても明るいドライバーさんで楽しかったです。ありがとうございました
英語対応との事でしたが問題ありません。

I participated with my daughter, and it was our first experience, so we were nervous 💓. Although there was some fear, the moment we ascended into the sky from the boat, it felt wonderful with the blue sky and sea, and it was truly moving 😊. I wish we could have flown a little longer.

娘と2人で参加したのですが、初めての経験でドキドキ💓
恐さもあったのですが、ボートの上から空へ上昇した途端、気持ちよくって空も海もブルーで、感動でした😊
もう少し長い時間飛んでいたかったな〜。

We were on the same boat as groups 3 and 4, and it felt great to enjoy cruising while others were flying out to sea.

Since it was the latter part of our trip and we had just had our wedding in Hawaii, we were a bit tight on money and decided not to pay the $40 tip for photos, but none of the staff made any unpleasant faces, and we were able to participate happily.

Instead, I brought a rented GoPro from Japan, and there was no negative reaction to that either.

The photos are screenshots from the video.

I have a fear of heights, so I was a bit teary while waiting and flying, but unlike a roller coaster, there was hardly any shaking, and the ride was much smoother than I expected. While waiting on the boat, I imagined being tossed around by wires, but it was just gently floating peacefully.

I participated thinking it would be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and it turned out to be a wonderful memory.

I appreciate the friendly and pleasant staff.

I usually get motion sickness in cars, but I took motion sickness medication beforehand, so I was fine on the boat. I highly recommend it.

3-4組と同じ船でしたが沖に向かうまでの間も他の方が飛んでいる間もクルージングが出来て気持ちよかったです。

旅行後半でハワイ挙式後ということもありお金に余裕が無く、40ドルのチップを払っての撮影は頼みませんでしたが嫌な顔するスタッフもいらっしゃらず、楽しく参加できました。

その代わり日本からレンタルのGoProを持ち込んでいたのですがそれも嫌な顔されるような事は無かったです。

写真は動画からのスクリーンショットです。

高所恐怖症のため、恐怖で待っている間も飛びながらも半ベソでしたがジェットコースターと違い揺れる事もほとんど無く、乗り心地は予想以上に良かったです。船で待っている間はワイヤーで振り回されるイメージかなと思っていましたが、
ただ穏やかにふわふわ浮いていました。

一生に一度と思い参加しましたが、結果とても良い思い出になりました。

ノリも感じも良いスタッフさん達に感謝です。

普段車でも酔いやすいのですが、酔い止めを飲んで臨んだので船酔いは平気でした。
おすすめです。

This cruise beat my expectations. The food was amazing and there was so much that none of us could finish. The outlook and entertainment were fantastic. My kids even got up and danced at the end and my 15 year old daughter told me several times throughout the night how much she enjoyed herself.... a pricey outing that was worth it...

The instructors are experienced, so I felt at ease. They have great personalities, and I had a very enjoyable time. I was also satisfied to see many fish!

インストラクターの方は慣れているので安心です。人柄も良くとても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。また、たくさんの魚を見ることもでき満足です！

It's quite a distance and a bit difficult to get to, but I made a reservation with transportation included, so I was able to go with peace of mind. At the site, the explanations were in English, so I didn't understand anything at all, but I managed to get by with the atmosphere. The activity was fantastic, and the weather was great!

中々遠くて行きにくい場所ですが，送迎付きで予約させていただいたので安心して行けました。現地では，英語での説明だったので，全く分かりませんでしたが、雰囲気で乗り切りました。アクティビティは天気も良くとても最高でした

The day before, I was forced to change the time without any explanation. I had already organized my schedule for that day, so it was very troublesome to have it changed without notice. I at least wanted an explanation. The driver was cheerful and a very nice person.

前日の昼過ぎに、何の説明もなく時間変更を余儀なくされた。その日1日のスケジュールを組み立てていたのに、勝手に変更されて大変困った。せめて説明をしてほしかった。
ドライバーの方は陽気な方でとてもいい人でした。

I made a reservation the day before on a whim! We traveled as a group on a small boat. I was a bit anxious because the experience reviews mentioned that motion sickness medication was essential, but the weather was nice, and while watching others fly and chatting with the staff, the time flew by, and I didn't feel sick at all! My mother, who joined me, said the exact same thing. The view from above is truly breathtaking, just as everyone has mentioned. If you come to Hawaii, you must try it!

前日に思い立って予約しました！
小さな船に乗ってグループで移動します。
体験談に酔い止めは必須と書いてあり不安がありましたが、天気も良く他の人が飛んでいるのを見ていたり、スタッフの方と話していたらあっという間に時間が過ぎて全く酔いませんでした！
一緒に参加した母も全く同じことを言っていました。
上からの景色は皆さんが書いてある通り絶景です。ハワイに来たらぜひ！

We thoroughly enjoyed this entire experience. The ship and crew was outstanding and the ability to do 'off shore' sandbar stopover with BBQ lunch and snorkeling was terrific. Although we had a rental car, we opted to take advantage of their transportation (a bus) and that was a real plus with door-to-door service. And although the bus was filled to capacity, on arrival they broke into two groups with two sailing vessels but stayed in tandem. The ships were in top shape and the onboard restrooms clean and stocked.

The sandbar experience was wonderful permitting amazing photos with Oahu mountains in the background. The crew was outgoing, mixing with the guests and ensuring all was safe and fun. The BBQ was ample and tasty, and the included and optional drinks wide ranging. The tour allowed plenty of time for all phases including the snorkeling...never feeling rushed with lots of time for exploration along the reef. The fish were plentiful and the coral in good condition. The crew was environmentally conscientious and took extra care in entering and existing the ship while snorkeling (with an onboard fresh water rinse afterwards). Their snorkel gear appeared new with ample numbers of swim jackets.

I highly recommend booking Captain Bob's...you won't regret it.

The tour itself was great - however the instructions were very clear that if you were late you’d be left behind. The guides let people wander in as late as 930 although check in time was 845 and the boat was supposed to leave at 9. Table choice was also not first come first serve - they saved the window seats for people with children so despite our group being one of the first to arrive we were placed in a center table and the people arriving 45 mins late and holding up the whole group got the window seats.

Once on the water the tour was great :) guides were friendly and helpful

I couldn't believe that there was a zip line in Kapolei, where I usually go shopping, and I was skeptical at first, but it turned out there was one. I discovered this valley! I had a wonderful experience utilizing the height difference. I was in a team with an American family with a 4-year-old, and we had a great time. The highlight was the thoughtfulness of the young instructor. From the simple speaker attached to our bodies, Japanese music played when we were challenging ourselves, and American music played when the American family was up. I was so impressed by such careful consideration. It was a great value and an absolutely fantastic experience.

当初何時も買い物に行くカポレイにジップラインが出来るような地形があるのは信じられず半信半疑でしたが、なんとあったんです。
こんな谷があったんですね！落差を利用した素晴らしい体験をさせて頂きました。
4歳児ご一緒のアメリカ人家族と一緒のチームでしたが、楽しく体験できました。
その最たるものは、若いインストラクターの気遣いにあると感じました。体につけた簡易スピーカーからは、我々が挑戦する時は日本のミュージックが流れ、アメリカ人家族が挑戦する時は、アメリカのミュージックが流れていました。なんと細やかな気遣いに感激しました。コスパも良く大変素晴らしい体験をさせて頂きました。

It was quite windy, and there was a lot of swaying on the boat, but I had a great time! When I first mentioned that I didn't want to get wet, they made sure to accommodate my request. The staff were cheerful, and my 83-year-old grandmother also enjoyed it.

たまたま風が強く、船の上、空中での揺れが結構あったのですがとても楽しかったです！最初に濡れたくないと言ったらその願いも叶えてくださいました。スタッフの方も明るく、83歳の祖母も楽しんでいました。

It's a refreshing activity! You drive yourself and glide through vast areas. We had eight vehicles lined up, with one guide watching over every three. I felt safe driving. The guide was great at keeping everyone excited and was always smiling! Although the guidance was in English, I managed to keep up. Additionally, before the ride, they play a video in Japanese to explain everything, so those who are not confident in English will be fine. I highly recommend giving it a try!

爽快アクティビティです！
自分で運転して広大な場所を滑走します。
私たちは、8台が連なって、3台につき、1台がガイドが見守ってくれていました。
安心して運転ができました。ガイドはとてもみんなを盛り上げるのがうまく終始笑顔！英語でのガイドですが、なんとか対応できました。
また、ライド前は日本語の映像が流れて説明してくれますので英会が苦手な方も大丈夫です。
是非参加してみてみてはいかがでしょうか。

I have a fear of heights, so I was scared at first, but the view from the top was amazing!

The meeting point is a bit hard to find, so it's better to arrive early!

高所恐怖症なので最初は怖かったですが、高所からの景色は最高でした！

集合場所が分かりづらいので、早めに行った方が良いです！

Beginners to probably veterans can enjoy this (it's coastal fishing). The view from the waters off Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head was amazing. If you're into boat fishing, you're unlikely to go home empty-handed. The cute captain and the adorable porter were also fantastic!

釣り初心者からおそらくベテランまで楽しめます（近海釣りです）
ワイキキビーチとダイヤモンドヘッドの冲からの眺めは最高でした。船釣りされてる方ならボウズは無さそうです。可愛いキャプテンと、可愛いポーターさんも最高でした♪
