All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

The local staff really boosted the atmosphere, and I felt a sense of unity with the other guests who were also trying this for the first time. It was so much fun! Once we were up in the sky, all the fear disappeared, and it felt absolutely amazing!

現地のスタッフさんが雰囲気をめちゃ盛り上げてくれて一緒に同乗した他のお客さんたちとも初挑戦するという一体感ができてとても楽しかったです！
空に上がってしまえば怖さも吹っ飛びサイコーに気持ちよかったです‼️

I had a horseback riding experience with my husband. On the day we made our reservation, it was canceled due to heavy rain the day before, but we were able to quickly reschedule and go horseback riding. I had previously ridden at a different place, but this one felt more homey, and the instructor was very nice. They taught us how to ride and handle the horses in a clear and thorough manner. The course took us through the great outdoors for just under an hour. We saw some cute cows along the way. We also had a view of the ocean. Unlike the previous riding place, we were able to stop along the way for photo opportunities. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to visit this riding stable again.

主人と一緒に乗馬体験をしました。予約した日、前日は大雨でキャンセルになりましたが、直ぐに予約を取り直し乗馬をする事ができました。以前は違う所でしましたがこちらの方がアットホームで、インストラクターの方もとても良い方でした。丁寧に乗り方,馬の操り方を分かりやすく教えて下さいました。コースは大自然の中を1時間弱回りました。途中に牛がいてとても可愛かったです。海が見渡せました。以前の乗馬場ではなかった途中で止まって写真撮影もしておただけました。又ハワイに行く機会があればこちらの乗馬場に再度お邪魔したいです

The scenery was absolutely amazing! It ended in the blink of an eye, so I was a bit disappointed that I wanted to enjoy it a little longer!

景色が最高に良かったです！
あっと言う間に終わったので、もう少し楽しみたかったのが少し残念でした！

At first, everything was new and I was anxious, but everyone was very nice and I enjoyed it until the end! The 120m was very high, but I was able to see the scenery and it felt great! Next, I definitely want to challenge myself to the 150m! They also took a lot of photos, and I was very satisfied!

最初は何もかもが初めてで不安でしたが、みんなとても良い方で最後まで楽しめました‼︎120mはとても高かったですが景色も見れて気持ち良かったです‼︎次は150mもぜひ挑戦してみたいです‼︎写真もたくさん撮ってくださり大満足でした‼︎

The fireworks were shorter than I expected (about 5 minutes), so I thought it might not have been necessary to take the boat just for that. However, the atmosphere on the boat with the dining, dancing, and performances, as well as the night view, was very nice. I got seasick as soon as we boarded and couldn't move from my seat much, but the staff was very attentive and considerate. They took photos during boarding and would come around to sell them later. We decided to have the data sent to us via email, but there was no Wi-Fi on the boat, so I couldn't confirm the data reception. Later, it turned out that the data hadn't been sent, but I consulted with VELTRA, and they were able to send it to me after I returned to Japan. I was very grateful for their help. I think it's better to receive the photos in physical form.

予想していたよりも、花火は短かったので（５分くらい）、わざわざ花火のために船に乗らなくても良かったかなと思います。ただ、船上でのお食事や、踊りや演奏など、夜景など雰囲気はとても良かったです。乗船してすぐに船酔いしてしまい、ほとんど席から動くことはできなくなりましたが、スタッフの方たちは、いろいろ気にかけて下さいました。また、乗船時に写真を撮り、後で売りに来ます。私たちはデータのみメール送信してもらうことにしましたが、船内にwifiがなくデータ受信が確認できませんでした。あとで、送られていないことが判明しましたが、VELTRAの方に相談して、日本に帰国してからデータを送ってもらうことができました。VELTRAの方にも大変お世話になりました。写真は、やはり実物で受け取ったほうが良いと思いました。

I participated in this tour because it was the only one that offered hotel pick-up for the sunset sailing. The price is a bit high, but the experience was great, and I was able to see the beautiful sunset. The night view of Waikiki from the sea afterward was also amazing.

サンセットセーリングでホテルまで送迎していただけるツアーがこのツアーのみだったので参加しました。値段は少し高いですが、内容は良くて夕日も綺麗に見れてそのあと海から見るワイキキの夜景も最高でした。

The explanation bus provided clear information for those who are new to dolphins and snorkeling.

I was able to see dolphins very closely several times, which was incredibly moving. However, I was disappointed that I couldn't see any turtles, as I believe we were supposed to. It might have been because we had a hard time spotting the dolphins at first. Also, perhaps due to the location, there weren't many fish around.

You can rent a wetsuit for $10 per person, which is advisable since there are many jellyfish. The wetsuit is shorter than shorts, so if you're concerned, it's better to bring something that covers your legs.

During our free time, I was very satisfied with the amount of time we could spend on stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) and kayaking. The hamburgers and pineapples for lunch were also very sweet and delicious.

The staff members were very kind, and I had a wonderful time. Thank you! I would like to participate in other activities the next time I visit Hawaii.

イルカやシュノーケルに関して初めてのかたでもわかりやすいようにせつめいバスでしてくれていました。

イルカはすごく近くで数回見る事が出来てとても感動しました。
ただ、カメも本来は見ることができるはずでしたが、最初イルカを中々見れなかったせいか
カメが見れなかったのは残念でした。
あとは、場所柄なのかほとんど魚はいませんでした。

ウェットスーツを１人１０ドルでレンタルできるのでクラゲも多いしかりたほうがいいです。
下が半ズボンより短い長さなので不安でしたら自分で足が隠れるものをもっていったほうがいいです。

自由時間にはＳＵＰとカヤックも満足するくらい行う事が出来てとても満足しました。
お昼ご飯のハンバーガーやパイナップルもとっても甘くておいしかったです。

スタッフの方々もとても優しくて、とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。ありがとうございます。
またハワイにいった際にはほかのアクティビティにも参加してみたいです。

The weather was nice, and thanks to our guide, we were able to enjoy ourselves until the end. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any sea turtles, but we were able to see quite a variety of colorful fish.

天気も良く、ガイドのかたのおかげで最後まで楽しませてもらえました。海ガメには残念ながら会えませんでしたが色とりどりの魚を結構見れました。

I thought it was a bit too simple for the price. I also think the photos could be a bit cheaper. It was backlit, after all.
However, I think it was nice that it was a place where you could enjoy yourself in a short amount of time.

料金の割には、シンプル過ぎるかなと思いました。写真ももう少し安くてもいーかなと。逆光でしたし。
でも、短時間で楽しめる所は良かったと思います。

First time booking a tour when visiting Oahu and was pleased with this company. Price was very reasonable especially because it includes transportation and advance tickets to USS Arizona. Bus was very spacious & clean & comfortable & on time! Our driver, John, was very pleasant & professional. Knocked off 1 star because I wish there was more time spent touring downtown. I thought this tour included Chinatown but we didn't even get close nor was it even mentioned. Honestly, Honolulu is not so big that more time can't be spent exploring. Overall, a very nice experience, mahalo!

I did 120m.
At the beginning, they asked, "Is it okay to do a Japon?" (laughs)
It's the one where you fall into the water when you come back.
I was trying to take pictures of the scenery at the start, so I unexpectedly did a Japon too! (laughs)
I was a bit anxious since it was my first time, but the view was great and it was amazing! ☆
The driver understood a little Japanese, but everyone was friendly and it was fun!
I took about 70 photos for $30. They ask you at the beginning, so it's definitely better to buy them!
I gave a $10 tip each to the two guys on the boat and the driver.

120mやりました。
初めにジャポーンok？と聞かれます！笑
戻ってくる時に水に落ちるヤツですね。
飛び始めに景色を撮ろうと携帯を触ってたせいか、不意のジャポンもされました！！笑
初めてなので不安だったけど、景色も良く見えて最高でした☆
車のドライバーさんが日本語少し分かるくらいでしたがみんな気さくで楽しかったです！
写真は70枚程で30$。初めに聞かれるので絶対に買ったほうが良いです！
チップは、ボートでの彼ら2名、車のドライバーさんに10$づつ渡しました。

A fun couple of hours snorkelling. Its expensive but enjoyable and memorable

The parasailing itself was great, but out of 10 participants (5 pairs), 3 people were throwing up on the boat after flying, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication before participating!

パラセイリング自体はとても良かったですが、参加者10人(5組)中、3人は飛んだ後に船で吐きまくりだったので、酔い止めを飲んで参加することをお勧めします！

The authentic hula is truly wonderful. The powerful fire dance, delicious food, and I really felt that I had come to Hawaii.
The couple sitting next to us, Mr. and Mrs. J from Montana, were very friendly. We chatted using a mobile translator, laughed, and had a really enjoyable luxurious time.

やっぱり本場のフラは素敵です。迫力のファイヤーダンス、美味しい食事、と、ああハワイに来たんだな、と実感しました。
お隣に座った、モンタナから来られたJさんご夫婦はとてもフレンドリーな方でした。携帯の翻訳でおしゃべりをして、笑って、本当に楽しい豪華な時間を過ごさせていただきました。

we were fortunate to see 2 species of dolphins, a humpback whale and sea turtles! The 3 women who were on board- the photographer, the captain, and our tour guide were all super friendly and knowledgeable. If you are looking to see Koran of fish in the water and sea life, this is not the tour but if you are looking to see some mammals and hop in the Ayer from time to time then this is it!

Loved it! We saw turtles, dolphins, tons of fish and the wide open sea!

We were picked up by a large bus decorated with dolphins right from the start of the day, which really got us excited! The staff inside the bus were energetic and provided clear and entertaining explanations, and before we knew it, we arrived at the boarding location. Once on board, we were lucky enough to encounter dolphins right away and had a great view of wild dolphins! It was a bit unfortunate that the water was murky, but everyone enjoyed snorkeling and paddleboarding, spending their time as they pleased. I wasn't feeling well and rested on the boat, but even then, the staff kindly checked on me, and I am very grateful for that. Afterward, we had a lot of fun with hamburgers, snacks, hula dancing, and more, creating wonderful memories (●´ω`●). I highly recommend this for honeymooners (♡ˊvˋ♡)!

朝イチからイルカのペイントがされた大きなバスでお迎えにきていただきテンションがあがります♪車内もテンションの高いスタッフさんが面白くわかりやすく説明してくださりあっという間に乗船場所へ着きました。乗船すると運良くすぐにイルカに出会うことができ、バッチリ野生のイルカを見ることができました！！少し海が濁っていたのが残念ですが、その後も皆さんシュノーケルをしたりSUPをしたりと思い思いの時間を過ごすことができました。私わ体調が悪くなり船の上で休んでいましたが、その時もスタッフさんが優しく声をかけてくれてとても感謝しています。その後ハンバーガーやお菓子、フラダンス等内容盛りだくさんでとてもいい思い出ができました(●´ω`●)ハネムーンの皆さん(♡ˊvˋ♡)おすすめです♪

This is a “must do” activity. You can spend an entire day, or just a few hours. We ended up spending about 6:00 hours and loved every bit. Go early, as the crowds are not bad in the mornings before 9:00.

There were no Japanese people other than us, but the atmosphere was enjoyable with families, couples, and people from various countries. The price included two free drinks, but we were told that there was no charge for the third drink, making it all-you-can-drink. Just make sure not to forget to give a tip to the staff instead of paying the bill. The sunset was wonderful, and I thought the night view after sunset was worth a million dollars.

日本人は我々以外居なかったが、家族連れやカップル、いろんな国からの人達で楽しい雰囲気だった。
代金には2フリードリンクでしたが、3杯目からも代金は要らないと言われ、飲み放題でした。
ただ代金の支払いの代わりにスタッフにチイップを渡すのは忘れないように。
サンセットは素晴らしく、日没後の夜景も100万ドルの価値があると思いました。

Due to strong winds for two consecutive days, we had to turn back from the sea, but on the third try, we finally experienced parasailing in the best conditions. I brought my camera to take pictures while ascending, but I was so captivated by the scenery that I didn't take many photos. I'm glad I asked the staff to take pictures for me; they took about 200 photos for just $30.

2日連続の強風で海上で中止引き返しましたが、三度目の正直で最高のコンディションでパラセーリングを経験出来ました。
写真を撮ろうとカメラを持って上昇しましたが、景色に見とれてあんまり撮れず、スタッフにカメラ撮影を頼んで良かったです。30ドルで約200枚撮ってくれました。

Lovely hike! The water and hiking stick as well as the bug spray that was provided, was greatly appreciated.

Although the weather was unfortunate, thanks to Dan and Chieko, I was able to meet the sea turtles I had always wanted to see and had the best time! They also recommended a restaurant, which was very delicious. Thank you so much!

あいにくの天気だったのですが、ダンさんチエコさんのおかげで念願だったウミガメにも会え最高の時間を過ごすことができました！オススメのレストランも教えてくださって、とっても美味しかったです♡ありがとうございました！

I was looking forward to the blue sky and blue sea, but...
I was really disappointed by the terrible weather.
The rain and the extreme cold even made me feel unwell...
Later, when I was talking to a local taxi driver, he sympathized with me, saying it was unfortunate to go during a time of heavy rain that happens once every ten years.
Well, it was disappointing, but since it's nature, there's nothing we can do about it.
However, the staff must have been cold too, yet they worked hard to cheer us up by getting into the sea with bright smiles.
This time, the weather was the worst, but the tour itself was really great, and if I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to try again.
After all, it's a wonderful opportunity to experience such amazing nature.

This time I give it two stars, but if the weather had been good, it would have been five stars.

青い空、青い海を期待しての参加だったのに・・・
最悪の天気でガッカリでした。
雨と、あまりの寒さに体調までくずし・・・
後日、地元のタクシーの運転手と話しをしていたところ、10年に一度の大雨みたいな時に行くなんて残念だったね、と同情されました。
まあ、残念ではありましたが、これも自然相手なので仕方がないな、と思うしかありませんね。
しかしスタッフの人達も寒かったはずなのに、一緒に海に入り明るい笑顔で盛り上げてくれるなど一生懸命に頑張っておられました。
今回は、天気の都合で最悪でしたが、ツアー事態は大変良く、またハワイに行く機会が有りましたら、絶対再チャレンジしたいと思います。
なんと言ってもすばらしい自然に触れられるのですからね。

今回は星2つですが、天気さえよければ5つ星です。

The food was only ok. Service was very good. show was great! We had some wind which made some waves, so the boat was rocking a bit. Our server came around to ask if anyone was feeling seasick. Thankfully, no one in our group was.

I tried parasailing for the first time on my honeymoon. I have a fear of heights and don't handle thrills well, so I chose the 130m option. I was captivated by the beautiful scenery and the clear ocean, so I didn't feel scared and genuinely enjoyed it! However, I found it a bit scary to let go of the belt, so I think it's better to leave the photos during parasailing to someone who isn't afraid of heights.

We were the only Japanese people there, but thanks to the cheerful instructor, we didn't have any issues. We opted for the shuttle service, but if the hotel is within walking distance to the meeting point, it might have been nice to enjoy the beach on the way there and back without the shuttle.

It went by in a flash, but it became a wonderful memory! I want to do it again!

新婚旅行で初めてのパラセーリングに挑戦しました。高所恐怖症&絶叫苦手なので130m。
素敵な景色と綺麗な海に魅力されて、怖さは感じず素直に楽しめました♫
ただ、ベルトから手を離すのは少し怖かったのでパラセーリング中の写真は高所恐怖症じゃない方に任せた方がいいと思いました^ ^;
日本人は私達しかいませんでしたが、ノリの良いインストラクターさんのおかげで何も困ることはありませんでした。
送迎ありにしましたが、集合場所に歩いて行けるホテルであれば、行き帰りにビーチを楽しめるので送迎無しでも良かったかなと思いました。
あっという間でしたが、素敵な思い出になりました！またやりたい！

I found a tour where you can enjoy a meal while watching a hula dance show, which was my mother's wish. I was very satisfied with both the content of the show and the seats we were given. The meal was a buffet, and everything was delicious. There were many participants, so there was a line to get food, and we had to wait quite a bit, but while waiting, we were able to see the sunset, so it wasn't too tiring. The show was mostly in English. There were more Western guests than Asian ones, which was nice in a way that felt less typically Hawaiian.

母の希望でフラダンスショーを観ながら食事が出来るツアーを探していて見つけました。
ショーの内容も通された席も大満足。
食事はブュッフェでしたがどれも美味しかったです。参加者が多く食事を取りに行くのに行列が出来ていて結構待たなければなりませんでしたが、待っている間にちょうど夕焼けも見れて待ちくたびれると言う程ではなかったので良かったかと思います。
ショーは全般英語。お客さんもアジア人より欧米の方が多く、良い意味でハワイらしくなくて良かったです。

Two years ago, I went to Hanauma Bay on a different guided tour, but my 4-year-old daughter was unhappy, and we didn't get to see any turtles, so this time we made a comeback! The guides took great care of my daughter, and we were able to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind! We also got to see turtles, which was amazing! I highly recommend it!

二年前にハナウマ湾へ別のガイドツアーで行きましたが、4歳だった娘は嫌がり、亀さんも見られず残念だったので、今回リベンジしました！娘のこともしっかりフォローしてくださり、安心してシュノーケリングを楽しむことができました！亀さんも見られて、最高でした！オススメです！！

I booked this horseback riding tour because my boyfriend has expressed how much he has always wanted to ride a horse. I did a quick search and Veltra had this awesome offer for a 2-for-1 which I found perfect as a surprise for him! I booked it and got confirmation very quickly.
We were coming from Honolulu so the drive took about an hour. Our booking was at 2pm and check-in was at 1:30pm. The early check-in was for the explanation of the liability and consent form while they prepared the horses. There was the two of us plus a small family of three. Helmets are recommended but not required- they are free to use. (If opt to not use a helmet, you must sign a section on the liability form) Around 10 minutes before 2pm, they explain and demonstrate how to ride and take care of our horses. We get on and begin the tour shortly after 2pm!
We got lucky with the weather! When we first arrived, it was grey, cloudy and started to drizzle. By the time we began our horse ride it turned sunny! Leanna was our guide and she is the sweetest person! We were all beginning horseback riders so we went at a good pace. She talked about the range, answered our questions, asked about ourselves, and made sure we were all comfortable and in control of our horses throughout the entire tour. The trail included uphill, downhill, and flat plains. The top view was absolutely stunning. We got to see the beautiful blue ocean in-front of us and the Ko'olau mountains behind us. Leanna even took our photos and they came out amazing. It was so serene, sunny and not too hot because there were cool breezes throughout that hour trail ride.
This is definitely an experience of a lifetime. I am so incredibly happy we got to do this! The views were breathtaking and I will be attaching photos even though the real thing is 1000 times better! We'll be doing it again the next time we get the chance. Thank you so much Leanna and Gunstock Range for a lovely time and thank you Veltra for the great offer!

My wife and I were in Hawaii for our honeymoon and wanted to venture out to the north shore of Oahu to get a taste of the landscape out there. I booked a horseback riding tour for our first full day in Oahu, and even though we had to get up early to make it out in time for our ride, it was SO worth it. Everything with the ride and staff at Gunstock ranch was perfect. Finding the ranch was easy and the signs leading to where we needed to go were so clear. We showed up a little early and our tour guide was still grooming and prepping the horses for the day, but she let us wander around and meet some of the horses. She was so kind and informative and did an amazing job leading our ride. She was patient and very clear in her instructions, and even though our ride was only 1 hour I feel like she went above and beyond to pack as much as she could into our hour ride! The service from Gunstock ranch was TOP NOTCH and I would HIGHLY recommend anybody to check it out. Even if the price seems a little high, it was so worth it and I can guarantee you will not regret making the trek out and taking a trail ride with Gunstock ranch. The location / area is so beautiful, we even saw a full and amazing rainbow the morning of our ride. If I could give this company / this ride 6 stars I would! I will definitely come back again next time we are on the island!

Since I had a golden seat, I was able to see well from the second or third row. Perhaps because it was outdoors in January, it was cold when the wind blew, and my body got chilly. Maybe it's better to wear warm clothes even in Hawaii when outdoors?!

Regarding the food, since I was cold, there were many cold dishes that didn't suit my taste. Personally, I found the outdoor show at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel to be more wonderful, and the food was better, so I rated the Hilton show three stars.

ゴールデンシートだったので前から２，３列目でよく見えました。1月の屋外だったせいか風が吹くと寒くて体が冷えてしまった。屋外の時はハワイでも暖かい恰好がいいのかも？！
お料理については 体が冷えてるから冷たい物が多くて口に合わなかった。
個人的にロイヤルハワイアンホテルの屋外のショーの方が素敵でお食事も良かったのでヒルトンのショーは星３つにしました。
