All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

I went with my high school freshman and my fourth grader. It probably depends on the child, but my daughter changed clothes halfway through and became the photographer with her smartphone, haha. The fourth grader was overjoyed!! The adults also returned to their childhood, screaming with excitement, and it was so much fun. Hawaii is enjoyable even without the ocean; it was a new discovery. We'll definitely go again next year.

高1と小4の子供と行きました。
高校生はその子によるのでしょうが、我が娘は途中から着替えてスマホでカメラマンに徹していました笑
小4男子は大喜び！！
付き合う大人も童心に帰ってキャーキャー叫んで、すごく楽しかったです。
海じゃなくても楽しいHawaii、新発見です。
来年もまた行きます。

I was able to enjoy the great outdoors along with Yumi's warm and very easy-to-understand guidance. The course was very gentle and easy to walk. The organic lunch was also very delicious, and I felt closer to Hawaii's natural beauty. Yumi shared stories about Hawaii's nature in various places, which made me feel very warm inside. I would love to participate again.

ゆみさんのほのぼのとしたとてもわかりやすい案内とともに、大自然を楽しむことができました。とてもゆるやかで歩きやすいコースでした。オーガニックのお弁当もとてもおいしく、ハワイの大自然に近づいた気がしました。ハワイの自然についてのお話を、ゆみさんがいろんなところでしてくださり、とてもあたたかい気持ちになりました。また、参加したいです。

Unfortunately, we were unable to see any whales. However, the breakfast buffet on the ship was very delicious, and we were able to relax while enjoying the vast ocean view. I look forward to the next opportunity.

残念ながら鯨を見ることはできませんでした。
しかし船の上での朝ご飯バイキングはとても美味しく、広大な海を眺めてのんびりとした時間を過ごすことができました。
また次の機会に期待します。

Very exciting but wish the waves had been bigger; guide was very helpful; narrow walkway and crowded making it awkward at foot-washing area.

AUSTIN was AWESOME !!! .. He really made the day.

We had the UTV experience only for 1 hour but Austin was always attentive to ensure everyone had a great time.

Highly recommended

Don't expect a giant whale to appear right in front of you. We were picked up at the Ko Olina Marriott with about ten others and headed to Waianae Harbor. There were already some participants lined up, probably around 40 to 50 people, and I think we were the only two Japanese. Unfortunately, I could only understand about 80% of the guide's explanations, but I got the gist of it.

We enjoyed a large catamaran yacht cruising at engine speed. Since it was a yacht, we were close to the water, and although the weather was cloudy with occasional sunshine, we had a great time cruising. Once we got offshore, we encountered a small whale that spouted water a few hundred meters away. We saw it several times, and each time there were cheers. I think the sight of a giant tail appearing right in front of us is just a picture from the brochure.

After that, the boat headed to the dolphin area. The dolphins swim in groups and are very curious, coming close to the boat, so we could see them well. However, I had previously participated in a dolphin watching cruise from the same harbor in the summer, and I felt that the dolphins were more energetic and jumping around at that time.

The nearly two-hour cruise included all-you-can-eat rice crackers that looked like persimmon seeds and one drink (including alcohol) for just under $100. I thought it was a bit pricey, but my wife was very impressed. Besides encountering whales and dolphins, she also enjoyed the scenery and the cruising itself.

We were also taken back to the Ko Olina Marriott afterward. Additionally, you have to take off your shoes when boarding, and it's barefoot inside the boat. You just throw your shoes into a container box on the dock, so if you're concerned about that, it might be a good idea to bring a plastic bag or something to carry them inside. We didn't mind since we were wearing flip-flops and sneakers, but my wife found it a bit troublesome to take off her socks.

巨大なクジラが目の前に現れて・・なんて期待してはいけません。
コオリナマリオットで10名ほどピックアップしてもらって、ワイアナエハーバーへ。すでに先客組が並んでいて４０~５０名ほどの参加者でしょうか、日本人は我々2名だけだったと思います。残念ながらガイドさんの説明は８０％は理解できなかったけれど、それなりに分かるものです。
大型のカタマランヨットを機走（エンジンで進む）で楽しみます。ヨットなので海面も近く、参加日は曇り時々晴れでしたがクルージングも楽しめました。沖合に出ると数百メータ先に「プシュッ！」と潮を吹いて泳ぐ小さなクジラに遭遇しました。何度か出くわしますが、そのたびに歓声が上がります。目の前を巨大な尾びれが現れて・・というのはパンフレットの写真だけだと思います。
その後、イルカのエリアにも船は向ってくれました。イルカは群れを成すし好奇心豊かで船にも近づくのでよく見えます。ただ同じハーバーから以前夏にイルカウォッチングクルーズに参加したことがあるのですが、その時のほうがジャンプしたりイルカも元気だったような気がします。
2時間近くのクルーズで、柿の種みたいなあられ(食べ放題？）とワンドリンク（アルコールもあり）で$100弱。ちょっと高いかななんて思ったのですが、カミさんはとても感激。クジラやイルカの遭遇以外にも景色やクルージング自体も楽しかったようです。
帰りもコオリナマリオットまで送ってもらえました。
あと、乗船時に靴を脱ぎ船内は裸足です、脱いだ靴類は桟橋のコンテナボックスに投げ入れるだけなので気になる人はビニール袋等持参して船内に持ち込むのも一考かもしれません。我々はビーサンとスニーカーだったので気にしませんでしたが、カミさんが靴下脱いだり面倒くさがっていました。

I looked at a magazine and thought, "I just want to go here," so I joined a basic course that included three activities. Among them, the jungle experience was an exciting and dynamic ride that had me laughing the whole time. Next time, I want to try horse riding.

雑誌を見て、「とにかくここに行ければ良い」という思いで、3つのアクティビティーに参加できる基本的なコースに参加しました。中でもジャングル体験は迫力満点のダイナミックなライドで、始終大爆笑でした。次回はホースライディングに挑戦したいです。

3階建てのクルーズでしたが、1階に座るように言われました。しかし、ウェイトレスが空いている席があれば別の階に移動してもいいと言ってくれたので、私たちは移動しました。それが素晴らしかったです。3階では、雲が多い日でしたが、夕日を見ました。それでも楽しめました。この場所を完全にお勧めします :)

It was 3 floor cruise, and we were told to seat on the 1st floor but waitress told us that we can move and go to different floor if the seats are vacant so we did and it was great. At 3rd floor, we saw sunset it was cloudy day but still enjoyed. I totally recommend this place:)

I was excited when I saw the map, wondering if I could explore everything, but when I got there, it was surprisingly small, and I completed a lap in no time. The staff were all friendly, but it felt a bit sparse, as one person was watching multiple slides, and the food area called a café was completely closed. I appreciated the water and fruit service at the cabana. Since it was a tour, I had to stay until after 3 PM when the pickup came, which felt like a waste of time when there was nothing to do. I think it would be better to have a rental car next time so I could leave whenever I wanted.

地図で見た時は全部回れるかな〜？とワクワクしてましたが、行ってみると意外と狭くて、あっという間に一周しちゃいました。
スタッフは皆さん愛想のいい方ばかりでしたが、人手不足なのか、一人で複数の滑り台を見ていたり、カフェと名がつくフードエリアが全て閉まっていたり…閑散としている感じがしました。
カバナのお水とフルーツサービスは嬉しかったです。
ツアーなので迎えが来る3時過ぎまでやることないのにいなきゃいけないのは時間の無駄でした。次回行くとしてもレンタカーなどで好きな時に帰れた方がいいなと思いました。

This was my fourth time in Hawaii. I've been to major beaches like Waikiki Beach, Kailua, North Shore, and Hanauma Bay, and since December is the rainy season there, I chose to visit Kualoa, which I had never been to before. People often associate Hawaii with beach activities, but after visiting Kualoa this time, I thought, "Why haven't I come here before?!" I was truly moved by the incredible natural beauty of Hawaii! The location tour, in particular, left a strong impression with its dynamic scenery right in front of me. It was also adorable to encounter the cats frequently within Kualoa Ranch!

ハワイは4度目でした。ワイキキビーチ、カイルア、ノースショアにハナウマベイなど主要ビーチは行ったことがある上に12月であちらは雨季という事もあり、今まで行ったことがないクアロアを選びました。ハワイ＝ビーチアクティビティというイメージを持ちがちですが、今回クアロアを訪れて「どうして今まで来なかったんだろう！」と思うくらい、ハワイの大自然に触れてとても感激しました！特にロケ地ツアーは目の前に広がるダイナミックな景色がとても印象に残りました。クアロアランチ内でたびたび猫ちゃん達に出会ったのも可愛かったです♫

I hoped for 150 meters, but all five groups that boarded had the same itinerary and the same height. I was a bit disappointed as I was expecting something higher.

150ｍを希望しましたが、乗り込んだ5組すべてが同じ行程で同じ高さでした。
もっと高いところを期待していただけに少しがっかりしました。

It was my first challenge, but I felt at ease because the instructor was always there with me. My mother came along to observe, and that was not a problem at all. I made some wonderful memories!

初挑戦でしたが、常にインストラクターの方が付き添ってくださっていたので安心でした。
母が付き添いで見学に来ていましたが、それも問題ありませんでした。
とても良い思い出ができました！

We went out to sea to board a submarine, but on the day of the trip, the waves were high, and my wife ended up with severe seasickness. According to her, "I didn't have any opportunity to see the fish at all..." Personally, I found it to be a simple yet enjoyable experience of boarding a submarine, and the fish were beautiful. I was very happy to see a turtle swimming.

潜水艦に乗るために、沖合へ出るのですが、当日は波が高かったせいか、妻がひどい船酔いになってしまいました。本人曰く、「全く魚などを見る余裕はなかった・・・」との事でした。
個人的には潜水艦の乗艦を簡易的に体験できるし、魚もきれいでした。泳いでいる亀を見ることが出来たのはとても嬉しかったです。

I got seasick on the boat to the submarine. I'm prone to motion sickness, so I prepared by bringing a bag for vomiting, but I ended up not needing it. There were plenty of bags for vomiting inside the submarine, but it hardly swayed, so I didn't feel nauseous. I saw three turtles and two sharks. It's all about luck, really.

潜水艦まで行く船で酔いました。元々酔いやすいので覚悟はして嘔吐用の袋をもって行きましたが使用せずにすみました。
潜水艦の中に嘔吐用の袋が沢山ありましたが、ほとんど揺れないので気持ち悪くなりませんでした。
亀は3匹、鮫は2匹みられました。
こればっかしは運ですね。

My first parasailing experience was incredibly fun! I felt a thrill when we rose to 150 meters, and the view of Waikiki was breathtaking. It became a wonderful memory! I think many people were feeling seasick. There were five other groups on the same boat with us, and since each group took turns flying, the waiting time was a bit tough.

初めてのパラセーリング最高に楽しかったです！150mの高さまで上がった時はドキドキしましたがワイキキを一望できます。いい思い出になりました！船酔いはしている方が多かったと思います。私たちの他に5組が一緒のボードに乗り1組ずつ飛んでいくため待ち時間は少しキツかったです。

The sandbar on the day we participated had water up to our thighs, which was a bit disappointing! I think it would be good to check a site that provides tide information before making a reservation.

The hamburgers we had on the boat were surprisingly delicious!! Although there was a bit of murkiness in the water for snorkeling due to rain the day before, there were many sea turtles nearby, and we were able to swim with them. It was so much fun!

参加した日のサンドバーは太ももあたりまで水が上がっていて少し残念でした！潮位を調べられるサイトがあるみたいなので予約する前に参考にした方がいいと思います。
船上で食べるハンバーガーはびっくりするぐらい美味しかったです！！シュノーケリングも前日に雨が降ったため少し濁りはありましたがウミガメが近くに沢山いて一緒に泳ぐことができました。すごく楽しかったです！

The weather was a bit unpredictable with rain coming and going, but the conditions on the day turned out to be quite good. The contrast of the rainbow with the planes taking off from Honolulu Airport and the view of Diamond Head and the streets of Waikiki from the sea was very uplifting. The open sea had surprisingly high waves, and everything from my clothes to my belongings got soaked, but the pleasant climate made it feel like being sprayed with water at Disneyland. Unfortunately, we didn't see any whales, but we received a pass to ride again for free within the season, so I felt quite satisfied. A couple in their 50s who could only speak basic English like "Thank you" somehow joined a tour that only had an English-speaking guide (there were about 20 participants, and only one other Japanese group besides us), but even without understanding the language, we had a pretty good time. Just keep in mind that there are no life jackets, so any activities outside the boat are at your own risk.

雨が降ったり止んだりで天候に気を揉みましたが、当日の天気はまずまずのコンディションでした。虹とホノルル空港から離陸した飛行機のコントラスト、海上から見るダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの街並みは、とっても気分を高揚させます。外海は意外に波が高く、服から何から‘べしょべしょ‘に濡れましたが気候も良いので、言ってみればディズニーランドで放水を浴びているようなものですね。鯨は残念ながら見れなかったけど、シーズン内ならもう一度無料で乗れるパスも貰えるし、満足感は十分ありました。「Thank you」ぐらいの英語しか喋れない５０代夫婦が何を血迷ったか英語ガイドしかいないツアーに参加しましたが（２０組ぐらいの参加者のうち日本人グループは我々ともう一組だけでした）、言葉はわからないなりに結構楽しめますよ。ただ救命胴着はありませんので船外の行動は自己責任となります。

Prompt service to and from the pick up site! Driver even called to confirm I was present. Wow! Great host and service. Thank you for your time and insight in the journey!

We went as a group of ten, and we were all guided together, with many staff members who spoke Japanese, which made for a fulfilling experience. It rained partway through, but they still made sure we could enjoy ourselves, and it was a lot of fun! I would love to participate again if the opportunity arises. ^ ^

10人という団体で行きましたが、みんなまとめて案内してくださったり、日本語のできるスタッフがたくさんいたり、と充実した時間を過ごすことができました。
途中で雨が降りましたが、それでも私たちが楽しめるように盛り上げてくださり、とても楽しかったです！
また機会があれば参加したいです^ ^

I was picked up from the hotel where I was staying and taken to the port. We ran the boat to the point, and it seemed like we circled around the area a bit to check the wind conditions. I participated with my husband, but to be honest, I'm not good with heights. However, I decided to book the 150-meter jump thinking that since it's over water... In the end, I didn't feel much fear; rather, I was overwhelmed and moved by the scenery. There were clouds over the mountains, but if the weather is really nice, it would be a spectacular view! It was an activity that made me want to try it again.

滞在するホテルまで迎えに来て頂き、港まで送迎してもらいました。
ポイントまで船を走らせ、風の状況を確かめる為か少しポイント周辺をグルグルしていたように思います。
夫と参加しましたが、正直私は高いところが苦手で。でも水上の上なら…と思いきって150メートルを予約したのですが。結果、さほど恐怖感はなく、むしろ景色に圧倒され感動しました。山に雲がかかっていたけどホントに天気が良ければ絶景です！
もう一度やってみたいと思えるアクティビティでした。

I was a bit disappointed that several attractions I wanted to ride were closed. Since I visited on a weekday, there were few people in the facility and the wait times were short, allowing me to ride the slides multiple times. Most of the visitors were tourists, with a majority being Japanese. The only attraction with a long wait time was the FlowRider. There are deck chairs by the central wave pool, but the shaded areas fill up quickly, so I recommend securing a spot as soon as you enter the park.

乗りたかったアトラクションが何個か開いていなかったので少しがっかりでした。
行ったのが平日だということもあり、施設自体は人も少なく待ち時間も少ないのでスライダーに何度も乗ることができた。
来場者は殆どが観光客で日本人が大半です。
唯一待ち時間が長かったのはフローライダーくらいでした。
中央の波が出るプールにデッキチェアがあるが屋根付きで無料の所はすぐ埋まる為、入園後すぐに場所取りしに行く事をおすすめします。

My husband is turning 60 this year, and I will be next year. We both have hidden obesity, and I was worried about how it would go, but we managed to do 150 meters without any issues! It felt great!

Among all the young people, I was the most high-spirited since I took motion sickness medicine! It seems like I could get dizzy even while going up in the sky.

For some reason, my husband and I felt like we were on a romantic date while flying, and we, who don’t get motion sickness, were having a blast. On the way back, the speed of the boat was so exhilarating that we couldn't help but scream with joy.

I recommend it for those who have time in the morning.

還暦を迎える夫と来年還暦の私。お互い隠れ肥満。どうなるのか心配してたけど、問題なく１５０メートル出来たーーー。気持ちいいーーー。
若い人が多い中、酔い止め薬を飲んでた私は一番ハイテンション!
空に上がっている時にでも酔うみたい。
酔わない私らは、飛びながら何故か夫とラブなデートしてる気分。
帰りのボートのスピードも凄く年がいもなく、申しわけないくらいキャーキャー言って楽しかったです。
朝、時間がある方おすすめです。

We visited three or four hotels before leaving, spending quite a bit of time before arriving in Honolulu. By the time we got there, it was already open, but there was a long line for baggage inspection, and we could only enjoy the pool around 11 AM. We went on December 31, and it probably wasn't too crowded, but we waited over 30 minutes for the first attraction. The next attraction also had a limited number of two-person floats, and we waited about 30 minutes for a float. Time flew by, and before we knew it, it was already 3 PM for the meeting time. If there were single-person floats, we could have gone down three or four times while we were waiting, so I hope they can be flexible with the number and types of floats based on the situation.

The wave pool had strong waves, and I was a bit worried about the kids drowning, but they were having fun.

On the way back, we were dropped off at the hotels in order of pickup, so we arrived 50 minutes earlier than the scheduled time, which allowed us to make good use of the time afterward.

We had reserved a governor for rental in advance. The rental fee is high, so the cost-effectiveness is questionable, but considering the luggage and dining aspects, it was nice to spend our time elegantly.

For those who want to play a lot, the time might feel short and unsatisfying, but for our family, it was just right, and I thought it would be nice to bring them back again.

行くときにホテルを3，4カ所回っていって、ホノルルを出るまでにかなり時間を費やし、到着したらすでにオープンしていて、荷物検査でもかなり行列で時間がかかり、実際にプールで遊べたのは11時頃でした。12月31日に行きましたがおそらくそんなにすいていなかったのだと思いますが、最初に並んだアトラクションで30分以上まち、次のアトラクションも2人乗りの浮き輪の数が少なく、浮き輪待ちで30分ほど並び、並ぶのに時間がかかり、あっという間に集合の3時になりました。一人乗りの浮き輪だと、私たちが並んでいる間に3回も4回も滑れていましたので、状況をみて浮き輪の数や種類など、臨機応変に対応して下さるといいのにな、と思いました。
波のプールは波の迫力が強く、子供が溺れないか不安なほどでしたが、楽しんでいました。
帰りはピックアップされたホテル順におろして頂いたので、ホテル到着予定時間の50分も前に到着したので、その後の時間を有効に使えて良かったです。
今回ガバナを事前にレンタル予約していました。レンタル料は高いので費用対効果は微妙ですが、荷物のことや、食事面を考えると、優雅に過ごせて良かったです。
たくさん遊びたい人には時間が短く物足りないかも知れませんが、我が家にはちょうどよく、またつれてきてあげたいな、と思いました。

I'm glad I had the opportunity to experience being on a submarine. It was great to see sea turtles. There weren't any surprising events, but you can enjoy a relaxed time.

潜水艦に乗る機会はあまりないので経験できてよかったです。ウミガメが見れたので良かったです。ほかはびっくりするようなイベントは有りませんがゆったりとした時間を味あえます。

This time, we participated with a total of four people: three adults and one child (3 years old). Initially, one adult was supposed to accompany the child while the other two adults would go surfing. However, there was a bit of a dispute among the three adults about who would surf (laughs), so we consulted with the shop. They agreed that all three adults could experience surfing in one lesson, on the condition that we would return from the ocean on our own. We are truly grateful for that. It was the first experience of surfing for all the adults, but everyone was able to ride the waves without any issues, and we had a very enjoyable experience. When we go to Hawaii again, we definitely want to use this shop.

今回は大人3名・子供（3歳）1名の計4名で参加させて頂きました。当初は大人1名が子供に付き添い、残りの大人2名でサーフィンをする予定でした。しかし大人3人の間で誰がサーフィンをする？というケンカ（笑）になりショップに相談した所、沖から自力で戻るという条件付きで1レッスンに時間で大人3人全員がサーフィンを体験することが出来ました。本当に感謝です。サーフィン自体は大人全員初体験でしたが問題なく全員が波に乗ることが出来、とても楽しい体験をする事が出来ました。またハワイに行く際はぜひこちらのショップを利用したいと思います。

Meeting Teacher Dolphin and Professor Turtle was wonderful, and the smiles from Maki and the staff, along with this rainbow! It was the best day ever.

イルカ先生にカメ教授に出会えたことはもちろん、マキさんやスタッフの笑顔に、こんな虹まで❗最高の１日でした。

The two guides were fun to talk to and explained various plants. It was much more enjoyable to climb together than to do it alone. The lunch we had at Kapiolani Park on the way back was also delicious. Thank you, Jimmy! I definitely want to participate again.

ガイドのお2人の話が楽しく、いろいろな植物を説明してくれます。自分たちで登るよりもワイワイ楽しく登れます。帰りにカピオラニ公園で食べたランチも美味しかったです。ジミーさんありがとう！またぜひ参加したいです。

We participated as a family. Shortly after arriving, one of us fell ill, and we had to cancel and rebook multiple times. Just when we thought we wouldn't be able to participate, we managed to secure a reservation by 9:00 AM on the day before we were set to leave. It was raining, but it stopped just as we arrived at the meeting point, allowing us to enjoy the experience in perfect conditions. The instructor was cool and funny, which made my elementary school son very happy. Since we were a group of five, my son was able to experience it twice. We also signed up for other tours and participated in those as well. I would like to choose optional tours here again for our next trip.

家族での参加でした。着いて早々に体調不良の者がおり、何度も予約、キャンセルを繰り返し、もうできないかと思っていた矢先、帰る前日の当日9：00までの予約分で確定し、参加できました。雨が降っていたのですが、ちょうどポイントに着く頃にやんで、最高の状態でできたそうです。インストラクターの方がかっこよくて、おもしろくて小学生の息子が大喜びでした。5名での参加だったので、息子は2回体験できたそうです。他のツアーも申し込んで、参加させていただきました。また次もこちらでオプショナルツアーを選んで旅行したいと思います。

I was a bit disappointed; the content wasn't great for the price, and everything was in English without any Japanese interpretation. The guidance was also lacking; Hilton is not good.

少しがっかり、値段の割に内容も良くなく、すべて英語で日本語の解釈もなく
案内も良くない、ヒルトンは良くない。

I was disappointed that I couldn't see any whales. However, the weather for the cruising was perfect, so I felt good.

クジラが見えなかったことが残念でした。しかしクルージングには最高の天気だったので、気分は良かったです。
