All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

Our driver Larry was totally awesome! He was so knowledgeable, informative and entertaining. We received a great sightseeing tour of Honolulu/Waikiki and the surrounding area. If you request Larry specifically as your driver/guide, you won't be disappointed. He is very good at what he does. What can I say about Pearl Harbor? Everyone needs to visit this site. Unfortunately, the Arizona Memorial was closed for repairs so you will be given a boat ride in the harbor instead. But that's just a reason to come back and do it again.

Beginners can ride too! As mentioned, I was able to ride. Jimmy, who taught me, explained everything clearly. The staff also engaged in conversation, helping to ease my nerves. After changing, we took photos and played games, which was a lot of fun. I highly recommend it!

初心者の方も乗れます！の通り、乗れました。
教えてくれたジミーさんがわかりやすく教えてくれました。
スタッフの方も常に会話してくれて、緊張をほぐしてくれました。
着替えた後も写真を撮ってくれたり、ゲームをしたりと楽しめました。
おススメです！

I was surprised to see two tour buses at the meeting place, with people from various countries. However, there was a staff member who spoke Japanese, and the guided tour was also in Japanese. We gathered at the meeting place according to the schedule for each plan, and we experienced a total of three activities. Visiting filming locations is definitely a must. It was fun to see places from Jurassic World and more, and the magnificent scenery is truly wonderful. It mentioned that those with cardiovascular diseases should be cautious, but everything except the zip line was manageable. Long pants aren't necessarily required (though they might be for horseback riding). Since it's primarily a ranch, there is some smell, but there are also many animals. However, the lunch buffet wasn't very good, so I give it four stars.

集合場所へ行くと観光バスが2台でびっくり。各国の人がいました。しかし日本語を話すスタッフがいて、ガイドツアーも日本語でした。いくつかのプラン毎に牧場内の集合時間に集合場所に集まって、全部で３つ体験しました。やはりロケ地巡りは外せないでしょう。ジュラシックワールドやら色々、楽しかったし、とにかく壮大な景色が素晴らしいです。循環器疾患があるとダメだと書いてありましたが、ジップライン以外は余裕です。長ズボンとかも別に不要です（乗馬は要るのかも）基本牧場なので臭いはしますが、動物もたくさんいます。ただ、ランチビッフェは美味しくなかったので星4つです。

This was great! The views are amazing and our guide Travis was wonderful! We would definitely do this again!

We participated as a family. At first, it was scary, but since we got used to the gentle course before moving to higher altitudes, we were able to enjoy it without anxiety. There was an instructor who spoke a little Japanese, which was helpful. It would have been even more fun if we could speak English.

Since there are times when you need to hold onto the equipment with both hands, it would be convenient to have a case to hang your smartphone around your neck. I think it would be concerning if you only had it in your back pocket and it fell out.

When we were there, there was water available, but unfortunately, there were no bananas or other fruits (not sure if they ran out?).

Overall, it was a fun and great experience.

家族で参加。最初は怖かったのですが、優しいコースで慣れてから高地に上がるので不安なく楽しめました。
少し日本語が話せるインストラクターさんがいたので助かりました。
英語が出来たらもっと楽しかったでしょうね。
両手で器具につかまることもあるので　スマホを首からぶら下げられるケース等があると便利です。お尻のポケットだけでは　もし落としたら…と不安になると思います。
私たちの時は水はありましたが、バナナなどフルーツはなく（数が尽きたのか分かりません？）残念でした。

でも楽しくいい体験ができました。

Beautiful flowers, friendly and helpful greeter and guide.

This is my second time participating. Last time, I only caught a glimpse of the tail towards the end of the cruise, but this time, I was able to see both the spout and the tail several times! If you go expecting something like the promotional photos, you might feel disappointed. Everything from check-in to disembarking the boat is in English, so I was a bit worried about what to do in case of an emergency, but the boat itself was large and stable, so I felt safe on board. It was great to see the views of Waikiki and the east side of Diamond Head from a different perspective.

2回目の参加です。前回は、クルーズ終わり頃に尾がチラッと見えただけでしたが、今回は、潮吹きも尾も何度か見ることができました！
宣伝写真のようなのを期待して行くと、残念な気になると思います。
受付から船を降りるまで、すべて英語なので、万が一の時はどうしよう•••と思いましたが、船自体は大きくて揺れも少なく、安心して乗っていられました。
沖からのワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドの東側など普段と違う方角からの景色が観られて良かったです。

I was satisfied with everything.
From the transportation to the service on the boat,
seeing the sunset and Waikiki from the sea, and finally even spotting a whale made for a very enjoyable time.
The staff's response was also wonderful.

全てに満足でした
送迎から船内でのサービス
夕日や海からのワイキキ、最後にクジラまで見れて、とても楽しい一時でした。
スタッフの方達の対応も素晴らしかったです。

I truly felt that participating was worthwhile. Before boarding, I requested some photos, and they took not only the overall shots of parasailing but also captured our expressions and the views from the boat, totaling around 90 photos. It's necessary to inform the staff and the captain that you'd like photos before boarding and before parasailing, but it's reassuring that you can decide whether to purchase them after returning to the office and viewing the photos. The cost for the photos was $30, and we gave the captain a total of $20 in tips for the four of us. It created the best memories!

参加してよかったと心から思います。乗船前に写真をお願いし、撮っていただきましたが、パラセイルの全体像だけでなく、表情、船からの景色も撮ってくださり、90枚程度撮っていただきました。乗船前やパラセイル前にスタッフや船長さんに写真が欲しいと伝える必要がありますが、事務所に帰ってきて写真を見てから購入の有無を決めることができるので安心です。写真代は30ドル、チップは4人で合わせて船長さんに20ドル渡しました。最高の思い出ができました！

This boat trip was amazing! The captain was extremely knowledgeable and even looked out for dolphins and whales for us! We werent able to see any dolphins, but we were able to see a whale. We also saw some honu's, (green sea turtles) and some really cool fish. He also had a lot of great jokes, which made me smile! Well worth it!

We booked the sunset dinner cruise as a last minute activity for the final day of our trip. We booked the buffet tickets and made our own way to and from the venue. What a fantastic time! The food was great with a good selection, the live music and entertainment was fun and engaging, and the sunset views were spectacular. This was an excellent way to round off our trip and we would do it again in a heartbeat.

It was a rare perfect sunny day for winter. The view of the Waikiki skyline and Diamond Head from the boat was different and wonderful compared to seeing it from land. I was able to see whales five times, but they only appeared a bit far away, which was a little disappointing.

冬の時期にしては珍しく完璧な快晴。船から見るワイキキのビル群、ダイヤモンドヘッドは陸から見るのと違い良かった。クジラは5回見ることができたが少し遠くにしか現れずちょっと不満でした。

This whale watching experience was amazing. I was impressed by the onboard buffet as well. Another thing that moved me was the clear blue sea. I wonder how it becomes such an emerald green?

今回のホエールウォッチは最高でした。見れたこともありますが船内バイキングに感動してました。
もうひとつ感激したのは青く澄み渡った海です。どうしてこんなエメラルドグリーンになるんだろうか？

I think Manoa Falls is wonderful, but the path to get there was steep. Perhaps it was due to the rain from the previous day, but most of the people coming down had muddy shoes, which made me a bit anxious as I climbed. However, rather than worrying about my shoes, I was focused on avoiding the mud and not slipping, so I ended up not having the leisure to enjoy the surrounding scenery. For a hiking beginner like me, it was a tough course.

マノア滝は、すばらしいと思いますが辿り着くまでの道が険しかったです。
また前日の雨の影響なのでしょうか。下りてくるほとんどの方の靴が泥だらけで少し不安を覚えながら登りましたが、靴を気にするよりも、泥濘を避けながら滑らないよう登ることに必死で結局、周りの景色を見る余裕すら無かった気がします。私のようなハイキング初心者には、キツイコースでした。

I participated from the morning of February 22, and the shuttle driver was a nice person. I chose the no-meal plan. Once on the ship, we were guided based on whether we had a meal or not. It felt like there was a designated meal time. During that time, guests without meals were left waiting. Fortunately, it was sunny, and I think we could enjoy the cruise comfortably. We were able to catch a glimpse of a mother and baby whale's backs. So, it might be better not to expect jumping or anything like that. If you're hoping to see at least their backs, there are many spots on land where you can observe them, so I feel this tour is worthwhile for those who want to enjoy the cruise without regrets.

2月22日朝からの参加で送迎のお兄さんもいい方でした。食事無プランを選択。船内へ入ると食事有無で案内されます。説明も兼ねてでしたが、食事の時間が設けられていたように感じました。その間、無しのお客さんは待っている状態です。幸いな事に晴れていてクルーズ自体気持ち良く楽しめると思います。メインの鯨も親子で背中をチラッと拝むことが出来ました。なので、ジャンピング等は期待せず行った方が良いかもしれません。背中だけでも見れたらな。という方は陸から観れるスポットも多々あるので、クルーズも楽しみたい方は後悔しないツアーだと感じます。

This tour was amazing! Our tour guide Greg was unbelievably knowledgeable and so funny! All the stops were absolutely gorgeous! We would definitely do this again!!

This year, it seems there were unusually strong winds, and it was very cold (≧∀≦). I thought the sandbar would be shallower, but of course, the time of day matters, and I should have done proper research and made a reservation. The staff were very fun and wonderful people!

今年は例年になく？強風が吹いていたらしく、とても寒かったです(≧∀≦)
サンドバーではもっと浅瀬になるのかと思っていましたが、当然時間帯もあるわけで、ちゃんとリサーチして予約するべきでした。
スタッフはとても楽しい素敵な方達でした！

The instructors were lively and had great energy even early in the morning. I paid a $30 tip. I've heard that you might see whales and dolphins, so I think you can look forward to that.

インストラクターさん方のノリが良くて朝イチでもテンションアゲアゲでした。チップは$30払いました。クジラやイルカが見えるときもあるらしいので期待していいと思います。

I went to one of the many Adventures at Kualoa Ranch with my grandson. I took him to the Hollywood Movie Site Tour and we love it! My grandson is 5 years old and he loves dinosaurs and was so excited to see the Jurassic Park movie site, and believe it or not he was so excited to see the sign that appears on the movie. Also, all that bones and of course the dinosaurs. He was so happy!!!
For me was much more then I expected, everything was so beautiful and the lady who was guiding us, I think her name is Fono, wow ... she was awesome!
Everything was so beautiful and we enjoyed it a lot! I highly recommend it!

We had the most wonderful time yesterday at Kualoa Ranch! What a beautiful place, full of activities for all ages. My sister was visiting from Tennessee and we took her to the ATV Raptor Tour. We chose the one hour package, but trust us, one hour goes pretty fast, if you have the chance get the package for 2 hours, do it! It was absolutely unforgettable, the view, the sites, the adventure. The staff was very helpful and fun. When you come to Hawaii, make sure to hit Kualoa Ranch for the activities they offer!

We boarded the boat and set off for parasailing! I only observed from the boat while my two children experienced it. The captain and staff had great conversations and jokes, which made my observation really enjoyable.

The staff took care of all the preparations! Once we arrived at the starting point, they put on a harness-like gear and we started right away. There was a slight feeling of floating, but the breathtaking view in front of me quickly made any fear disappear. It was quite high. If you're afraid of heights, you might find yourself gripping the belt tightly, but if you're not, you can relax and let go with one hand!

I read that there was a possibility of landing in the water, so I wore a swimsuit, but I only got wet up to my butt, so I didn't get too soaked. However, it's definitely better to wear a swimsuit. It might depend on the season, but since it was early morning, it was quite cold. You can place your belongings at your feet, so it's a good idea to have something to cover up with.

Due to the weather and being the first ride of the day, by the time we returned to the port, I was able to wear a T-shirt and shorts over my swimsuit.

港から船に乗りいざパラセイリングへ！
私は船で見学のみ、子ども2人で体験してきました。船長、スタッフの方のノリの良い会話、ジョークも楽しく見学している私もすごく楽しめました。
準備はスタッフの方が決めてくれます！ハーネスっぽい装備をつけてもらってポイント地点に着いたらすぐにスタート。多少の浮遊感はありましたが目の前に広がる絶景にすぐに怖さも吹き飛びます。結構高いです。高所恐怖症だとベルトをひたすら掴んで硬直状態になりますが、そうでないなら片手を離してリラックスもできます！
海への着地の可能性ありと書いてあったので水着でいきましたが、お尻までボチャンと浸かるくらいであまり濡れませんでした。でも水着で行った方がいいです。ただ時期にもよると思いますが、早朝だったのでかなり寒かったです。荷物は足元におけるので羽織るものがあったほうがいいですよ。
気候と一番最初だったこともあり港に着く頃には水着の上からTシャツと短パンが着れました。

I was a bit worried because there were many experiences saying they couldn't see anything, but I was able to see it right after departure. In fact, I saw it multiple times. I thought a smaller boat would allow for a closer view, and I was unsure which to choose, but in this case, the size of the boat didn't matter. The transportation was perfect. As for breakfast, to be honest, it wasn't good.

見えなかったという｢体験談が多かったので、少し心配していましたが、出航後すぐに見えました。それも何度も。
小さい船の方が近くで見えるかと思い、どちらにしようかと迷いましたが、今回に限って言えば、船の大きさは関係なかったです。
送迎は、パーフェクト。
朝食は、はっきり言っておいしくない。

I was able to see sea turtles! Since it was the rainy season, the visibility was a bit unclear, but the weather was nice, the sandbar was very beautiful, and I saw a lot of fish! It became a great memory, and I'm glad I participated! The shuttle bus was cold, so a jacket is a must! There weren't many places to put luggage or eat on the boat since it was crowded. Those who were able to put their bags on the bench first had to eat standing up. Isn’t there too many people on one tour...? The staff were all cheerful and very nice!

海ガメが見れました！
雨季とゆうこともあり透明度は微妙でしたが、良い天気で サンドバーもとても綺麗で魚もたくさん見れました！良い思い出になり参加してよかったです！送迎は大型バス寒いです。
上着必須！船には人がたくさん乗るので荷物を置くところ、ご飯を食べる所があまりないです。最初にベンチに荷物を置けた人以外ご飯も立ったままでした。１回のツアーに人を乗せすぎでは…？ スタッフの方は皆さん明るく良い方ばかりでした！

Overall, I am really happy with the experience. I saw this activity online and booked it over the phone. The customer service was very nice and helpful especially when I needed to change our reservation to add more people on the trip. My friends and I really enjoyed the experience! Our tour guide was funny and knowledgeable about the park. Would totally recommend to friends and family.

I was able to see dolphins, turtles, and even whales in the distance. However, it was disappointing that towards the end of snorkeling, while I was in the restroom, my gear was put away, and I wanted to swim a bit longer.

イルカや亀、遠くでしたがクジラも見れました。ただシュノーケリングの最後の方でトイレに入っていたら、道具が片されてしまいもう少し泳ぎたかったのが残念でした。

I signed up for a sightseeing flight plan on short notice, but I was able to change it to a hands-on flying experience on-site. Although piloting was a bit scary, it was an interesting experience.

急遽申し込みの為遊覧飛行のプランで申し込みましたが、現地で体験飛行に変更してもらい操縦体験出来ました。操縦は少し怖かったですが面白い体験でした。

There is another dinner cruise available, but since the hotel pickup is charged separately, I chose the Majestic, which includes the pickup fee. The hotel pickup was on time, which surprised me since it's usually late.

I was a bit concerned about the quality of the food with the free drinks, but I was satisfied with both the quantity and quality. The variety of drinks was comparable to business class.

Enjoying champagne and wine on the deck of the ship while gazing at Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head is the ultimate luxury. We even got to see whales.

As it gradually got darker, the sight of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head bathed in the sunset made me truly feel like I was in Hawaii.

もう一つ別のディナークルーズがありますが、ホテル送迎が有料なので、送迎料込みのマジェスティック号を選びました。ホテルの迎えは定刻通りで、遅れるのが普通なので、びっくりしました。
フリードリンクで食事の質がちょっと心配でしたが、量・質ともに満足できました。飲み物もビジネスクラス並みにいろんな種類がありました。
船のデッキでシャンパンやワインを飲みながら、ワイキキ海岸・ダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めるのは最高の贅沢ですね。鯨も見ることが出来ましたよ。
だんだん暗くなって、ワイキキ海岸・ダイヤモンドヘッドが夕日に染まる光景は、ハワイに来たことを実感させてくれます。

This was my fourth trip to Hawaii, but my first time parasailing! Since I was staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village, I was able to walk directly to the meeting point. Since it was a special trip to Hawaii, I decided to challenge myself with the 150m height, and it was definitely the right choice! I kept rising higher and felt like we were the only ones up there, which was an amazing feeling. I wondered if this is how birds feel when they fly? It was so exhilarating!!!

They said it would last about 15 minutes, but I think we were actually in the air for about 7 or 8 minutes. It cost nearly $100, so I gave it four stars. There were about four other groups participating, but since we were the first to fly and headed out to sea, we could only see the ocean in front of us and had to turn back to see the view of Waikiki. I recommend boarding the boat last so you can fly facing Waikiki.

Also, if you ask, they will take photos for about $20, but I think it's fine to ask someone from another group to take your picture. Since we flew first, we didn't have time to ask, so we ended up not getting any photos, but the experience is etched in my memory!

ハワイ4回目ですが初のパラセーリング！
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジ宿泊だったので徒歩で直接集合場所に行けました。
せっかくのハワイ旅行だし、ということで150mにチャレンジしましたが、これが大正解でした！
どんどん高く上がっていき、上空を私達だけで独り占めしてるようなそんな気分になれました^^
鳥ってこんな感じで飛んでるのかな？気持ちいいーーーーー！！！
と大興奮でした♪
15分？とのことでしたが実際に飛んでいたのは7.8分ほどだったと思います^^;
それで100ドル近くがかかったので星4つにしました。
ツアー客4組ほどと一緒に参加するのですが、私たちが一番最初に飛んだ時に沖に向かって進んでいたため、前の景色は海しか見えず、後を振り返りながらワイキキの景色をみないといけませんでした^^;
船に乗り込むのを最後にすると、ワイキキ方面を向いて飛べるのでおすすめです。
あと写真はお願いすれば20ドルくらいで撮ってくれますが、他のグループの方たちにお願いして撮ってもらう感じでいいと思います。
私達は最初に飛んだのでお願いする暇もなく結局写真は取れませんでしたが目に焼き付けました(笑)

I was picked up by bus at the hotel and departed from the bay near Hilton Village. It mentioned that towels were needed, but it was fine without them. You can also leave your valuables on the cruiser, so there's no need to worry.

It was drizzling a bit at departure, but once we got out to sea, it cleared up and we enjoyed beautiful weather!

The crew was friendly and engaged in conversation, which really enhanced the atmosphere, making it a lot of fun! Be sure to enjoy the breathtaking scenery and refreshing experience!

バスでホテルまで迎えに来てもらい、ヒルトン村のそばの湾から出発。
タオル必要と書いてありましたが、無くて大丈夫です。貴重品もクルーザーで置いておけるので安心してください。

出発時はパラパラと雨が降ってましたが、沖に出ると晴れ、快晴の中でした！

クルーの人が気さくに話しかけてくれ、雰囲気も盛り上げてくれるのでとても楽しかったです！
圧倒的な景色と爽快感を是非楽しんでください！

This time, my spouse and I participated with our parents, a total of six people.
In the morning, we took a taxi to the location for our 8 AM checkout! It was surprisingly close and cost about $18, so I thought taking a taxi was a better deal with a larger group!
We chose a tour that only included sightseeing without meals.
The cruise lasted about two hours, and we were able to see whales, plus the ocean was really beautiful, which made both our parents very happy.
However, one point to note: since it was a large boat, we couldn't get too close, so if you're looking for a more thrilling experience up close, you might find this tour a bit lacking!

今回は私たち夫婦の両両親と6人で参加。
あさ、8時にチェックアウトのために、
私たちはタクシーを使って現地に向かいました！案外近くて18ドルくらいでしたので、
人数が多ければタクシーの方がお得だなとおもいました！
わたしたちは、食事をつけず見るだけのツアーにしました。
クルーズ時間は2時間くらいでしたがちゃんとクジラもみれ、さらに海が本当に綺麗で、両親共大喜びでした。
ただ一点。大きな船なので近寄らず、
もっと近くの迫力を求めるなら、物足りないと思ったツアーでした！
