All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

Even if the dolphins are that far away, being told "You saw the dolphins, right?" is a bit confusing.
The light lunch and other dance activities were as expected.
It would be nice if there were a place for women to change other than the restroom on the way back.

イルカがあれほど遠くても「イルカ見えたでしょ、みえたでしょ」と言われても？？
軽食ランチ、他ダンスは想像通りだった
帰り女性が着替える場所がトイレ以外にあれば

What I realized after coming to Waikiki is that the waves are very small. My children (ages 13 and 11) participated, and they were able to stand up on the longboard right away on those small waves. The instructor pushes them from behind, so even kids can ride easily. Once they get on, they can stay up for quite a while. I think they were out there for about 30 to 40 minutes. After finishing, we had to wait about 30 minutes for the bus to arrive, and later I thought that since we stayed at the Sheraton and the location was near the Marriott, we could have just walked back. In the morning, the pickup was also about 30 minutes late. The transportation service was quite unreliable.

ワイキキにきて分かったのは波が非常に小さいということ。
子供（13,11歳）だけが参加したのですが、あの小さな波にロングボード
で一発で立てていました。インストラクターが後から押してくれるので
子供でも楽に乗ることが出来ます。一度乗ると結構長く乗っていられます。
3～40分位やっていたと思います。終わってからバスがくるまで３０分位
待たされ、後で考えたら泊まったのがシェラトン、現地がマリオット付近。
歩いて帰れば良かった。朝も30分位迎えに来るのが遅れた。送迎がいいかげんでした。

Wow, wow, wow. This was the experience of a lifetime for me and my family. We really hit the jackpot. Within minutes of leaving the harbor we came across some Humpback whales frolicking with some dolphins - this was breathtaking. We then swam with sea turtles and had an amazing experience with a pod of approximately 50 dolphins. I honestly believe we had luck on our side because we couldn't have asked for a more amazing experience. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable and made the tour even more enjoyable. I can honestly say this was the highlight of our holiday and would recommend this company to everyone.

Unfortunately, the sandbar was submerged up to waist height, so we couldn't experience it, but the weather was nice and we had a great time. Interacting with the staff during the BBQ was enjoyable and the food was delicious. Many sea turtles popped their heads up, which excited everyone. It was a truly fun tour where we could enjoy swimming in a fantastic location. Although I'm not a strong swimmer, I was trying my best to swim, but it seemed to the staff that I looked like I was drowning (laughs), and they were worried about me. If I could wish for one thing, it would have been nice to have a bit more fresh water poured on us when we returned from the sea.

残念なことにサンバー（砂洲）は腰位まで海水があり体験できませんでしたが
お天気もよく楽しい時間をすごせました。
ＢＢＱでのスタッフとのやり取りも楽しく美味しかったです。
ウミガメもたくさん顔を出してくれて皆さん興奮していました。
最高な場所で泳ぎを楽しめて本当に楽しいツアーでした。
泳ぎの得意でない私ですが、いっしょうけんめい泳いでいましたが
スタッフにはおぼれている様に見えたよう（笑）で、
心配してくださいました。
欲を言うと海から船に戻った時にもう少し多めに真水をかけてくれると
よかったです。

I was looking forward to seeing whales, dolphins, and turtles, but I was disappointed that I didn't see anything. It's no good to have too high expectations. The weather was nice, so the view was good.

くじらやイルカカメなど楽しみにしていましたが何も見れず残念でした。期待しすぎるとダメですね。天気は良かったので眺めは良かったです。

I participated with my partner. Every time I come to Hawaii, I can't help but join in on parasailing because it's so much fun. The excitement of going up into the sky and the surrounding scenery is just amazing! As we go higher and higher, when we reach the top, it becomes a quiet space just for the two of us, where we can only hear the sound of the wind (*^^*).

From the boat, a photographer was taking pictures, and it was great to have memories captured both in my heart and in physical form! When I looked at the photos I received, I was surprised at how big my smile was! (laughs) There were also families participating, like a father, mother, and daughter, and they looked like they were having a lot of fun.

彼と2人で参加しました。
ハワイに来るたびにあまりの楽しさについ毎回の参加してしまうパラセーリング。
空に上がっていく時のワクワク感と周りの景色がとにかく最高です！どんどん高くなっていき、1番上まで行くと風の音だけ聞こえる静かな2人だけの空間になります(*^^*)
船の上からはカメラマンのお兄さんが写真を撮っていてくれて、思い出が心にも形にも残るのもまた嬉しかっです！受け取ったデータを見ると、びっくりするくらいの笑顔で写っていました！（笑）
父母娘さんの3人で参加している方もいて、とても楽しそうでした。

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to see any whales. The day before my participation, there was record heavy rain, so I was worried about the weather, but fortunately, we were blessed with good weather. I decided to enjoy the cruise around Waikiki instead of focusing on whale watching.

I think the cruise duration was about an hour and a half. If whales can be seen from that distance, it seems they come quite close to the Waikiki area.

I signed up for a course without breakfast, but I thought at least drinks would be provided, so it might be a good idea to bring water or bottled drinks.

Also, I heard that if you don't see any whales, you can get a ticket for the next cruise, but I didn't hear anything about that. Where should I inquire about this?

残念ながらクジラは見れませんでした。参加前々日が記録的な大雨だったので、天気が心配でしたが、幸いに好天に恵まれ、クジラウォッチングではなくクルーズと割り切ることにして、ワイキキ周辺を楽しみました。
クルーズ乗船時間は賞味1時間半程度かと思います。あれくらいの距離の移動でクジラが見られるのでしたら、ワイキキ周辺近くまで近づいてくるのだなと思いました。

朝食なしのコースで申し込みましたが、飲み物くらいは出されると思っていたので、お水やペットボトルのﾄﾞﾘﾝｸを持ち込んだ方がいいかもしれません。

それから、クジラを見られなかったときの次回乗船券をいただけるということでしたが、そういったお話しはなく、これはどこで聞いたらいいのでしょう？

The lockers are conveniently located near the rides. However, it was unclear what needed to be done before using the lockers. I was able to experience almost everything without much waiting, which was stress-free. The only clock in the park was broken, so it was difficult to know the time.

ロッカーが乗り物近くにあるので便利。ただロッカー使用前に必要な作業がわかりにくかった。そこまで並ばずにほとんど体験出来たのでストレスフリー。パーク内の唯一の時計が壊れていて時間が分からず困った。

It was my first experience. Since I was there, I did the 150. The view from the sky was amazing. After going out to sea by boat, those who are prone to seasickness might need medication. It's something you can't do in everyday life, so I definitely recommend trying it!

初めて経験。せっかくなので150をしました。空からの景色はすごく良かったです。船で沖まで出てからなので船酔いは気になる人は薬がいるかも。日常では出来ないので是非やって見てもらいたい！

Very friendly staff. Check in place is walking distance from my hotel. Since I do get sea sick, I took motion sickness pill an hour before and I didn't eat until it's time to go back to Waikiki beach. Therefore, providing snacks only without meals is perfect for me. They have a guide to swim with us and find turtles and other sea life for us. Our guide even dived to retrieve GoPro for a girl in our group. After snorkeling, they rises their sail and took us to see whales. My 2 teenage boys really enjoyed the activity the whole time.

I didn't like that it took a long time to be picked up by a shared vehicle, so I chose the meet-up plan. I went to the location indicated on the map, which was the center of Aloha Marketplace, but there was no ticket center. I tried calling the local phone number, but it didn't connect, and time was running out, causing me to panic. In the end, I asked a crew member from another boat, who told me that there was a ticket booth next to the boat I was supposed to board, and I barely made it in time. I think the explanation was insufficient. I would like the meet-up location to be accurately provided. I couldn't see any whales, which was the worst part.

混載車での送迎で時間がかかるのが嫌なので現地集合プランを選択しました。現地集合の場所はこちらと地図に示されていたアロハマーケットプレイスの中心にへ行きましたがチケットサンターがありません。現地電話番号に電話をしても繋がらず時間も迫りあたふた。結局、別の船の乗務員さんに聞いて乗る船の横にチケットブースがあると教えてもらいギリギリ間に合いましたが説明不足だと思います。現地集合の場所を正確に載せてもらいたいです。くじらも見えず最悪でした。

Two years ago, I participated in a program at a junior high school and swam with dolphins. I wanted to experience that happiness again, so I joined this time. Unfortunately, I couldn't meet any dolphins, but I was moved to see whales and turtles. I even got to see the spouts of several whales from a distance! And as expected from a university, Mr. Takao's passionate lecture and the meaningful movements in the dance were rich in content, conveying a love for Hawaii that captivated me. Thank you very much. I would love to participate again! (*^^*)

2年前に中学の方で参加しイルカと泳ぎました。その時の幸せ感を味わいたく今回参加させていただきました。残念ながらイルカには会えなかったけれど、クジラや亀に会えて感動しました。少し遠くですがクジラの潮吹きもみられました。それも何頭も…！そしてさすが大学、Mr.Takaoの熱のこもった講義？や、ひとうひとつの動作に意味を感じるダンス等も内容が濃く、Hawaii愛が伝わり聴きいってしまいました。ありがとうございました。また、是非参加させていただきます(*^^*)

I was unsure about going to the pool in Hawaii, but since the kids seemed excited, I decided to sign up. In the end, it was a great success! The adults had fun all day too.

Compared to Japan, the coin locker fees are high, but the fact that they use a password system and you don’t need to carry a key, along with the freedom to access your belongings, was very helpful.

There’s also a shop in the central area for lunch, and we were able to time it perfectly when a downpour came. When I asked the kids what they enjoyed the most in Hawaii, they mentioned this place first.

ハワイへ来てプール？！と思いつつも子供達が喜びそうだったので申し込みました。
結果、申し込んで大成功！大人も一日楽しめました。
日本と比べるとコインロッカー料金が高いですが、暗証番号式で鍵を持つ必要がなく、出し入れ自由なのは助かりました。
ランチも場内中央にお店があり、スコールが来た時にタイミングよくとることができました。
子供達にハワイで何が楽しかったか聞いてみると、1番最初にココだと話してます。

The guide who showed us around was enjoyable and great. We were able to see a sea turtle, even if just a little, and snorkeling was fun. Even though I'm not a strong swimmer, I felt safe participating. We went as a family, but my kindergarten-aged grandchild was shivering and crying because of the low temperature. I think it's important to choose the right season for small children.

案内してくださったガイドの方が楽しくてよかったです。ウミガメは少しだけですが見えたし、シュノーケリングも楽しく、泳ぎが得意ではない私も安心して参加できました。家族で行きましたが、幼稚園児の孫は気温が低く、寒さに震えて泣いてしまいました。小さな子どもには季節を選ぶ必要があると思いました。

There is a shuttle service to the hotel (depending on the hotel), and since we were able to return to the hotel by noon, we could plan different activities for the afternoon, making it an efficient and enjoyable experience. We were able to see many sea turtles, and the ocean was very beautiful, so I would like to go again. The only downside was that after getting out of the water, my body was still cold despite drying off with a towel, and the air conditioning on the return bus was too strong, making it very cold (though this may vary by person). I think it's better to prepare warm clothing that can get wet.

宿泊先のホテルまで送迎あり（ホテルによる）、昼にはまたホテルに戻って来れたので、午後はまた違う予定を組めたので、効率よく楽しめた。
ウミガメもたくさん見ることができて、海もとても綺麗で、また行きたいと思います。
唯一、海に入った後体はタオルで拭くくらいで冷えているのに、帰りのバスが冷房効き過ぎていてとても寒かったので（個人差あると思いますが）、防寒具や濡れても良い温かい服は自分で準備をしておいた方が良いと思います。

This was good for 11 yr old boy to be able to get dirty. The guide was nice It seemed a bit short of driving time for the amount it cost. It would be good if there was a car made for shorter people. It was hard to drive because I could barely reach pedals. Had to loosen seat belt to be able to reach anything. My nephew enjoyed it and he is 11 so that is good. Good activity just not a value. Maybe if there was a longer course or more laps.

First time to go snorkeling. We had a great time. Guides were excellent and good teachers. Took us on a route Around the bay We saw 3 turtles and too many different fish to count. Great trip. I would recommend this service.

I chose this tour because I heard the whale encounter rate is high. The weather was great, but unfortunately, I didn't encounter any whales, which was disappointing. I just accepted it as a regular cruise. The open deck was windy and surprisingly cold, so a jacket is a must.

クジラ遭遇率が高いとの事で利用しました。
天気には恵まれましたがクジラには遭遇出来ずがっかり。
ただのクルージングに行ったと割り切りました。
オープンデッキは風があり意外と寒いので上着必須。

The parasailing and jet skiing was our favorite adventure. Everything was well orchestrated and every single person that we dealt with from the driver to the check in staff to the guys driving the boats and operating the activities were awesome. Couldnt ask for a better group of people. The rain didnt put a damper on our day.

Unfortunately they lost our parasailing pictures but we got the videos.

It was my first time parasailing, and I went up smoothly and steadily, with the view being absolutely amazing! I had a great time. The blue of the ocean was lovely as well. I was able to enjoy a sky walk while looking at Diamond Head and Coco Head, and I felt that choosing Hawaii Kai was the right decision. The ocean splash was fantastic too! The boat ride was thrilling and enjoyable. However, I had a bit of an issue this time; I was supposed to be picked up at 7:40, but they didn't come, so I had to call twice, and they finally arrived at 8:10. The tour was supposed to start at 8:30, but it ended up being delayed... The plan was to arrive at the hotel between 9:30 and 10:00, but it ended up being 12:00!! The parasailing itself was absolutely fantastic, but I lost the entire morning, and my schedule got messed up, which was disappointing... A two-hour delay is significant... That was the only regret.

初めてのパラセーリングでしたが、すっ～とどんどんあがり、景色も最高！たっぷり楽しみました。海の青さも素敵でした。ダイヤモンドヘッドやココヘッドもみながら空中散歩でき、ハワイカイを選んで正解だったと思いました。海ぽちゃも最高！途中のボートもスリル満点で楽しめました。ただ！今回は7時40分迎えの所、来ないので２回も電話し、やっと来たのが8時10分。8時半スタートの回だったのですが、結局遅くなり・・・。予定では、9時半から10時にホテル着となっていましたが、結局12時でした！！パラセーリングはとても最高でしたが、午前中全てがなくなってしまい、予定がくずれてしまったのが残念でした・・・。２時間のロスは大きいです・・・。それだけが残念でした。

All the staff spoke English, but the explanations for the equipment were easily conveyed through gestures, making everything smooth. There were two staff members on the boat who really energized the atmosphere, and it was a lot of fun. Although there is a height requirement when booking, I felt that the height and duration were about the same for every session, so I went with the cheapest option. (laughs) During our session, three out of four groups were Japanese, and we exchanged our own cameras to take pictures. When disembarking, I gave tips to the two staff members. We also tipped the driver for our transfer, but I noticed that other guests did not give tips. The pickup was smooth, and they helped us get on and off the vehicle, so I felt it would be better to give a tip if possible.

スタッフ全員英語ですが装具の説明はジェスチャーで十分伝わり、スムーズでした。
船のスタッフは2人でとても盛り上げてくれて楽しかったです。申し込みでは高さの設定がありますが、実際聞かれることもなくどの回も同じくらいの高さ、時間だったように感じます。なので1番安いやつで申し込んでました。笑
自分たちの時は4組中3組が日本人で自前のカメラを交換して撮影してもらいました。
下船の時にスタッフ2人にチップを渡しました。
送迎の運転手さんへも私たちはチップを渡しましたが、他のお客さんは渡している方はいませんでした。ピックアップスムーズで、乗り降りの時も手をかしてくれたので、できればチップを渡した方がいいと感じました。

Fun, Professional & Knowledgeable Crew. New, clean, well maintained boat. They go out of their way to make sure everyone has a good time! We saw turtles and whales. One of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommend!

This was my first time in Hawaii for our honeymoon! We decided to join this tour because we wanted to see dolphins in the beautiful ocean. The day before, there was heavy rain, so I was worried about the weather, but it turned out to be clear skies. We took an early morning bus to the port, and when we boarded the boat, the staff warmly welcomed us. The staff maintained a cheerful atmosphere and treated us with care from start to finish. We traveled by boat for about 45 minutes, and during that time, we were able to see a whale spouting! (By the way, on the way back, we also saw its tail.)

As for the dolphins, I was a bit anxious that we might not encounter them since we were dealing with nature, but we were able to see them underwater! (Interestingly, it seems that there were no sightings for the three days leading up to our participation.) Although we didn't see them up close like in an aquarium, I was moved to encounter wild dolphins! After that, we split into activities and snorkeling. I experienced snorkeling, and I was able to see many fish up close as well. On the way back, we had a fun time dancing hula with the staff. It became a wonderful memory of our once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon!

今回ハネムーンで初めてハワイにやってきました！綺麗な海でイルカがみたいということでこのツアーへの参加を決めました。前日は大雨で果たして天気は大丈夫かなと心配しましたが快晴でした。早朝バスに乗って港へ着き、船に乗船するとスタッフが明るく迎えてくれました。スタッフの皆さんは最初から最後まで明るい雰囲気で丁寧にもてなしてくれます。45分くらい船で移動しましたがその途中でクジラの潮吹きもみるとこができました！（ちなみに帰りは尾びれもみることができました）
そして肝心のイルカですが、自然が相手なので出会えないかもと不安もありましたが、水中でも見ることできました！（ちなみに参加日までの3日間は出会えなかったみたいです）水族館みたいに近距離でみれたわけではありませんが野生のイルカに出会えたのには感動しました！その後はアクティビティとシュノーケルに分かれました。シュノーケルを体験しましたがこちらもたくさんの魚を真近で見ることができました。帰りにはスタッフさんとフラで盛り上がったりと楽しいひと時でした。たった一度のハネムーンの良い思い出になりました！

We experienced parasailing as a family for the first time. We were worried about the weather since it rained heavily the day before, but on the day itself, there was no wind and we were blessed with good weather. Everyone in the family was a bit anxious, but once we took off, it was simply amazing! I highly recommend it!

家族で初めてパラセーリングを体験しました。
前日が凄い雨だったので天気が心配でしたが、
当日は風もなく、よい天気に恵まれました。
家族みんな少し不安もありましたが、いざ飛んでみたら、
もー、素晴らしいの一言！
オススメしますよ！

It was incredibly powerful. A large whale spouted water right nearby, and there were cheers. I was lucky to spot it so quickly. I think it would be amazing to see the whales up close. The boat is large, but if you're prone to seasickness, I recommend bringing motion sickness medication.

凄い迫力でした。大きなクジラがすぐ近くで潮を噴き歓声があがっていました。
すぐに発見できラッキーでした。
もっと間近でクジラを見れたらすごいと思います。
船は大きいですが、酔いやすい方は酔い止めを持って行くと良いと思います。

I participated in the tour hoping to see whales, as I signed up during a time when other companies had not yet started their whale watching. There was an announcement that a dorsal fin was spotted! However, it did not appear again, and I was unable to see it in person. I did spot two or three dolphins.

It was the rainy season, and it rained, with cold winds making it quite chilly even with two layers of clothing. If the weather had been better, the scenery might have been nice.

Tips were collected in a box at the exit. The food on board was delicious, and the Japanese commentary was well done.

他社ツアーがまだホエールウォッチングを始めていない時期に申し込みしたため、運良くクジラに出会えるといいなと思い参加しました。
背びれが見えました！とアナウンスはあったものの、その後一度も現れず、実際に見ることはできませんでした。イルカは2、3頭確認できました。
雨季で雨が降ったり、風が冷たく上着は２枚重ね着しても寒いくらいでした。天気が良ければ景色も良かったかもしれません。
チップは出口に箱が置いてある形式でした。
船内の食事は美味しく、日本語での解説もきちんとあり良かったです。

According to the story, it seems a bit early in December. However, I was able to enjoy the lunch cruise. The staff mentioned that it would be difficult to see whales today, but they directed us towards the west coast where dolphins were spotted. We were able to see dolphins for a brief moment. I received a one-year valid reboarding ticket, but I'm not sure if I can go within a year.

話によると、１２月ではまだすこし早いらしい。
でも、ﾗﾝﾁｸﾙｰｽﾞということで楽しめました。
係員の人が、今日は鯨は無理そうだけど、いるかが西海岸のほうにいるからと、まわしてくれました。一瞬ですが、いるかが見れました。
１年間有効の再乗船券をもらえたのですが、１年以内にいけるかどうか。

It was so much fun.
I want to participate again during my next stay in Hawaii.
It will be English only, but that's okay.

最高にたのしかったです。
また次回ハワイ滞在時も参加したいです。
英語オンリーになりますが、まあ大丈夫です

There were few Japanese people, and some parts were difficult to understand in English, but I had a great time. It was more refreshing than I expected, and I was able to fully enjoy all seven zip lines. There were some challenging spots along the way, but there were water, bananas, tomatoes, and macadamia nuts available, which made for a nice break. When it suddenly started to rain, the raincoat I bought at ABC Mart was a lifesaver!

日本人が少なく、英語の説明で難しいところもありましたが楽しめた。
思っていたよりも爽快感があり、全7本のジップラインを思う存分味わうことができた。
途中、難所なところがあったが、水やバナナ、トマト、マカダミアナッツなどが置いてあり、よいブレイクをすることもできた。
雨が急に降り出した時はABCマートで購入したレインコートが大活躍！

We purchased the five star sunset dining and jazz. The atmosphere was tranquil and relaxed. The staff was very polite and kind. The food ( 7 course) was magnificent! This was my second time for this cruise~ I will purchase another in the future
