All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

With clear skies and a gentle breeze, the view of Diamond Head and the hotel towers while heading out to sea on a motorboat was exhilarating. There were eight participants, taking off two at a time into the sky. The tension when taking off from the boat was thrilling—“Oh!”—it was unforgettable. After that, it felt like a dream. We are a couple celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary, and we truly had a wonderful experience. The staff was kind and humorous, and there was nothing to complain about. The 150 meters was the most enjoyable part.

快晴微風、モーターボートでワイキキ沖に向かう時のダイアモンドヘッド、ホテルのタワー群の景色に、気分は盛り上がりました。
　参加者は８人で２人づつ大空へ。ボートからテークオーフする時の緊張感が「オーッツ！」、たまらない。それからは夢心地でした。
　ちょうど結婚５０年の夫婦ですが、まことにいい体験をさせていただきました。スタッフも親切でユーモラスで申し分ありませんでした。１５０ｍが一番楽しめそうです。

I was a bit nervous since it was my first time touching a dolphin, but when I saw the dolphin's face up close, it was really cute. Swimming with the dolphin was a lot of fun.

初めてイルカに触れるとあって多少緊張していましたが実際にイルカの顔を近くで見るとすごく可愛いかったです。
イルカと一緒に泳ぐことが出来てとても楽しかったです。

Guide (Kevin) was very professional, informative and accommodating. This tour is a great way to explore the north shore area.

As the tour approached, some details changed due to local conditions.

I thought, "Shouldn't we have known this earlier?" but I didn't want to waste the cancellation fee, so I participated.

It felt like I wasted a day just driving through nature without seeing the cityscape.

Maybe it's good for those who love nature and can understand English perfectly?

On the way back, the pickup location at Honolulu Airport was hard to find, and I got really lost.

ツアー間近になって、現地の状況により、一部内容が変更になった。

もっと早く分かっていたことなのでは？と思いながら、キャンセル料払うのももったいなくて参加。

街並みを見ることなく、自然の中をただただ車で走った感じで、正直、一日無駄にした気がした。

大自然が好きで、英語が完璧に理解できる人にはいいのかな？

帰り、ホノルル空港での送迎も場所が分かりずらく、迷いに迷った。

It was tough with the rain and high waves. We managed to see dolphins, but it seemed like more people didn't get to see them. The staff was very good, so it would have been perfect if the weather had cooperated.
We were supposed to have lunch on the boat, but after the activity, we waited on land for about 30 minutes and received a McDonald's cheeseburger to eat. I was disappointed because I chose this place over a middle school specifically to enjoy lunch.

雨が降ってきたり、波が高かったりして大変でした。自分たちはなんとかイルカは見れましたが、見れない人のほうが多かったようです。スタッフはとても良かったので、天気に恵まれれば最高でした。
船上ランチのはずが、アクティビティ終了後に陸で30分ほど待ち、マックのチーズバーガーを一つもらい食べました。ランチを楽しみに中学ではなく大学を選んだので、がっかりしました。

I had a great time! However, I got a bit seasick while surfing, which was a little disappointing, but I still enjoyed it! The instructor helped me catch the waves at just the right moment, so even as a beginner, I was able to have fun without any issues! Next time, I will take some motion sickness medication before participating!

とても楽しかったです！
が、サーフィンに酔ってしまい少し残念でしたが楽しめました！
良いタイミングでインストラクターの方が波に乗せてくれたので、初心者でも問題なく楽しめました！
次回は酔い止めを飲んで参加します！

It was rainy and cold, but when I saw the dolphins, I was so happy that I forgot about the cold. I highly recommend this tour!

雨が降って寒かったですが、イルカが見れた時は寒さも忘れるぐらい嬉しかったです。ぜひオススメのツアーです

The location tour was interesting and time passed quickly, but the next jungle tour? The guide was a foreigner and spoke only English. The places we visited felt similar to the location tour. I couldn't understand anything the guide was saying and we just rode around in a truck that had a bit more speed. If I had known the guide would only speak English, I wouldn't have gone.

We wasted about an hour and a half here, and the meal we finally returned to was terrible; it would have been better not to eat at all. The last taste farm had a Japanese guide who was easy to understand, which improved my mood a bit, but we spent almost the entire day going around similar environments and wasted precious time during our stay in Hawaii. I wish the Japanese site had mentioned in the notes that the guide would only speak English.

ロケ地ツアーは面白く時間が過ぎましたが続いてのジャングルツアー？ガイドが外人さんで英語のみ
回る場所もロケ地ツアーと雰囲気変わらず
ガイドが何言ってるか全くわからないままただ少しスピード感を出したトラックで回るのみ
英語のみのガイドなら行きませんでした。
ここで無駄に１時間半位時間を無駄にしやっと戻った食事がまた最悪、食べない方がマシでした。
最後のテイストファームはわかりやすい日本のガイドだったので少し気分が良くなりましたが、いかんせん同じような環境をほぼ一日中回ってせっかくのハワイの貴重な滞在時間を無駄にしました。
日本のサイトで申し込んで英語だけのガイドなら注意事項で書いておいてほしかったです。

We had a great experience. I went with my girlfriend, mom, and grandmother.
The tour gave us a good idea of the places we'd like to visit the next few days. Our tour guide, I think he name was Paul, was kind, knowledgeable, helpful, funny, and provided good advice for activities we could do the next few days.

My long-awaited first trip to Hawaii! I went in mid-April. The day before was unfortunately rainy, so I was worried about rain on the day of my trip, but fortunately, the weather held up until the end. I was able to see a pod of dolphins, sea turtles swimming along the ocean floor, and schools of small fish, which made for an incredibly moving experience in the crystal-clear waters.

As for advice for those who will be participating, I tend to handle the cold well, but if you are sensitive to cold, be sure to bring a larger towel and a jacket, as it can get chilly, especially with the wind while moving on the boat! Also, since mid-April is the end of the rainy season, I was able to take time off work when things were relatively calm to go to Hawaii. If I have the chance again, I would definitely like to go during the dry season next time.

念願の初ハワイ！
4月中旬に行きました。前日があいにく雨模様だったので、当日雨が降るのが心配でしたが、幸い天気も最後まで崩れる事なく、予定通り？イルカの群れにも海底を泳ぐウミガメにも小さい魚の群れにも会う事ができて透き通るようなきれいな海中もともなって感動の体験でした。
これから参加される方へのアドバイス？ですが、私は寒さには強い方なのですが、寒さに弱い方は、船で移動中は特に風が吹くと寒いので、大きめのタオルとジャケットなど寒さ対策は忘れないように！
あと4月中旬は雨季の終わりという事で、今回も仕事が比較的落ち着いた時にお休みをもらってハワイに行く事ができましたが、もし又機会があれば、今度は是非、乾季に行きたいと思っています。

Unfortunately, the weather on the day was poor, and as soon as the boat departed, it started pouring rain. The waves were high, and the boat was rocking... I had to stay on board except when I was flying, and the seasickness from the swaying boat was overwhelming. The tour ended in the morning, but even after arriving at the hotel, I still felt nauseous until the evening, which was tough. The parasailing itself was a lot of fun, but the rocking of the boat was quite difficult to handle.

当日はあいにくの天候で、船が出発したとたんに大雨。
波が高く、揺れる揺れる・・・
自分が飛んでいる！？以外は船上で待機していなければならないので、
揺れる船での船酔いが半端なく、ツアーは午前中で終了なのですが、
ホテルに着いてからも夕方まで酔いが収まらず、大変でした。
パラセール自体はとても楽しかったのですが、船の揺れがかなりつらかったです。

I had a reservation for the Star of Honolulu, but due to hull repairs, I was forced to cancel and quickly switched to the Majestic. However, even though it was just two docks away, I had quite a bit of trouble finding the boarding area. Because of that, I thought it might not compare well to the original cruise, but I believe the cost performance was actually better here. Unfortunately, it was cloudy, so I couldn't see the sunset, and I thought I might miss the fireworks too, but I was able to see them clearly, and they were not disappointing at all; I enjoyed them quite a bit. I thought the cocktail and light snacks were decent as well. More importantly, since I had planned to go directly to the boarding area, the outbound trip from the Kahala area would have been wasted, but thanks to VELTRA's negotiation, I was able to get a refund for one-way fare, which I was very grateful for. Because of that, my first ride back in a limousine was a fantastic experience.

スターオブホノルルを予約していたが船体補修とかでキャンセルを強いられ、急遽マジェスティックに切り換えた。処が、ふたつ先の桟橋なのに乗船場が分からず見つけるのにかなり苦労する。そんな事もあり当初のクルーズと比べてイマイチかなと思って乗船したが、コストパフォーマンスはこちらの方がよかったのではと思う。生憎曇っていてサンセットは見られず、花火もダメかなと思っていたらこれはしっかり見られて、その内容もそれ程ショボイものではなく、それなりに楽しめた。カクテル一杯と軽食もまあまあだったと思う。それより直接乗船場に行く事にしていた為、カハラ地区からの往路は無駄になるところだったのに、ベルトラさんのネゴで片道分をバックして貰えたのは大変有り難かった。お陰で、初めてのリムジンでの帰りは非常に気分が盛り上がったものであった。

Overall, the sunset cocktail cruise was excellent. The service staff was very attentive and would frequently go around the catamaran, refilling drinks and asking if you needed anything. The cruise itself did not take you very far from the pier, and stayed off the Waikiki coast, but still had an excellent view of diamond head and sunset. The appetizers were good, though not very substantial, consisting of chips, salsa, guacamole, salad, pasta salad, veggies, and rolls. Wouldn’t expect to get full from the food. The drinks were great, and basically free-flowing. Overall an excellent cocktail cruise

It felt like experiencing a movie on the same boat as foreigners! I even got to see dolphins! However, the waves were really strong, and the boat rocked a lot, so while I enjoyed it, those who are prone to motion sickness might find it tough!

外国の方とおんなじ船で映画の気分を味わってるようでした！イルカにも会えました！
ただ波がすごく船が大きく揺れるので私は楽しかったですが酔いやすい方はきついかもしれないです！

Due to a sudden change in the hull inspection, we used this option. Since it was our wedding anniversary, I was worried about how it would turn out, but this was also very lovely. The view was great as well.

船体検査で急遽変更し、こちらを利用させていただきました。結婚記念日でしたのでどうなることかと思いましたが、こちらもとても素敵でした。景色もよく見えました。

Loved the cruise.Loved the entertaintment.The food was very good.Love the beautiful sunset.

The arrangements were smooth. The pick-up and drop-off after arrival were also seamless, making it a great value and very convenient. I will definitely use this service again next time.

手配までもスムーズです。到着後もスムーズに送迎してもらえるので料金もお得で大変便利でした。次回もまた利用させて頂きます。

The shuttle driver was a lot of fun, but the crew member who boarded the ship with us didn't talk much. Maybe it was because my broken English was not very good? The foreign guests were really enjoying themselves.

送迎のドライバーは、とても楽しかったのですが。。
船に一緒に乗ったクルーの人は、あまり話してくれませんでした。下手な片言の英語だったから？？
外国の人達だけで盛り上がっていました。

I wish the weather had been a bit better...
But snorkeling and sea turtle watching were both fun!

もう少しいいお天気だと良かったのですが。。。
でもシュノーケルも海ガメウォッチとも楽しかったです！

Until we boarded the boat, I was anxious about whether we would actually see the dolphins since they are wild. After preparing to enter the sea, we heard that there was a pod of dolphins, so we quickly jumped in and swam towards where the dolphins were. Some people were able to see them, but we couldn't see anything at all. I was tired and my legs felt heavy from the fins I was wearing for the first time, but we were encouraged by the tour guide's words, "Let's keep trying a little longer!" As we started swimming again, the dolphins began to swim towards us, and in no time, they were right in front of us. They quickly swam away, but then another pod came close, and I think we encountered about 100 dolphins and were able to swim with them. It was truly a wonderful experience, even better than I had imagined.

船に乗るまではイルカと泳ぐといっても 相手は野生なのでほんとに
見ることが出来るのか不安でした。
海に入る準備が出来てしばらくするとイルカの群れがいるとのことで
早速海に入りひたすらイルカのいる方を目指し泳ぎました。
でも 中には見れた人もいましたが 私達には全く見えなくて
初めて付けたフィンで足が重たく疲れてはいましたが
もう少し頑張りましょう！というツアーのおねーさんの言葉に励まされ
泳ぎだすと 今度はイルカ達がどんどん こちらに泳いで来て
あっという間に目の前をイルカ達が泳いでくれて すぐに行ってしまったけど
今度は別の群れが近くに来てくれて きっと100匹位のイルカに出会え
一緒に泳げたと思います。
想像以上に素敵な体験ができて本当に良かったです。

I was moved to see a rainbow while paragliding! The driver who picked us up was also a fun person and made us laugh a lot. It was difficult for us to take photos ourselves, so I wish I had asked for the paid photo service.

パラセーリング中に虹も見れて感動！送迎の運転手さんも楽しい人でたくさん笑わせてくれました。自分たちでは写真を撮るのが難しいので、有料だけどお願いすればよかったなーと思いました。

The moment you rise up is indescribable! Of course, I was anxious since it was my first time, but it instantly turned into a pleasurable experience. Once you're up, you might feel quite relaxed... I can recommend it to older people as well.

ふぁあ〜っと上がっていく瞬間から何とも言えない！もちろん初めてなので不安だったけど、一瞬にして快感に変わる。上がってしまうとかなり余裕あるかも…。
ご年配の方にもおすすめできます。

With a total of 5 groups participating, we had to stick together while each of us was flying, but I wish I could have stayed up a little longer. I requested 150m, but since I couldn't tell the difference from the others and we couldn't measure the length ourselves, 90m might be fine as well. In any case, the view is stunning and beautiful!

合計5組の参加で、それぞれが飛んでる間も付き合うから仕方ないんだけど、もう少し長い時間浮いていたかったなと。
150mをお願いしたけど、他のヒト達との違いがわからないのと、長さを自分たちで測れないので、90mでもよいかもしれない。いづれにしても、スカッとキレイな景色が見える！

I chose to participate at a height of 120 meters. The view of both the sea and the city was excellent. Occasionally, there was a floating sensation, but it was thrilling and enjoyable. However, I think some people might feel nauseous, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication before joining the tour.

120mの高さを選択して参加しました。
海も街も一望でき、非常に良かったです。
時々、ふわっとした感覚があるのですが、それもスリリングで楽しかったです。しかし、人によっては酔って気分が悪くなる場合があると思いますので、ツアー参加前に酔い止めを飲んでおこくことをお勧めします。

My wife, who can't swim at all, was able to enjoy herself thanks to the kindness of the two instructors. We were also able to see sea turtles, which made us very satisfied. Thank you very much.

全く泳げない妻もインストラクターお二人のお心遣いでエンジョイできました。海ガメも見られて大満足です。
ありがとございました。

Overall, this trip was quite good. The staff were very nice, and they provided delicious free American-style hamburgers and hot and cold drinks. The only downside was the bad weather.

這次行程整體來說都還不錯，staff 人都很nice ,且還提供美味的免費美式漢堡及冷熱飲品。唯一美中不足的是天氣不好。

My first zip line experience was exciting at first, but I gradually got used to it and enjoyed it. It's a shame there wasn't a Japanese guide, and it would have been even better if there were higher settings available.

初めてのジップラインは最初はドキドキ、徐々に慣れて楽しめた。
日本語ガイドがいないのが残念、まだもっと高い設定があると、尚良かった。

The staff warmly welcomed us and took commemorative photos. After boarding, the 3rd floor has a dinner class, while the 2nd floor offers appetizers. We were able to enjoy a buffet of light snacks (like meatballs) on the 2nd floor, where there were few passengers and the spacious interior of the ship allowed us to relax. There was live music on board that we could enjoy until we docked. The staff's service was also good. We went around the back of Diamond Head and returned, but since it was a new ship, we didn't experience any seasickness and were able to dock smoothly. The price was reasonable, and I highly recommend it.

出迎えではスタッフが丁寧に出迎え記念写真を撮ってくださいました。
乗船後３Fはディナーがあるクラスですが２Fはアペタイトです。私達は２Fで乗船客も少なくゆったりと広々とした船内で食べ放題の軽食（ミートボールなど）をたくさん食べることができました。船内では生演奏があり入港まで聞くことができました。スタッフの対応も良かったです。
ダイヤモンドヘッドの裏側まで行き引き返しますが、新しい船なので船酔いすることもなく寄港することができました。
値段も安くておすすめです。

Friendly staff; great experience!!! I recommend this to anyone!!! I was able to take a bonus flight because someone showed up solo!!! The first time parasailing was scary but the second time up was exhilarating! No more fear after the second time up!!!

It was me and my friend’s first time snorkeling and Dan was extremely patient. At first, I was uncomfortable with breathing under water, but Dan made sure that I relaxed myself and held on to me during the practices to ensure that I was comfortable. He took great photos for us and took us further down to see a lot of fishes and we even saw a turtle towards the end of the tour! I would highly recommend Blue Hawaii Divers to anyone who wishes to book a tour for snorkeling. It is not necessarily just for beginners, we swam in groups and there were people who have snorkeled before. On the way back to the hotel, Dan gives great suggestions on where to go, and he also gives great recommendations for food spots.
