All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

I had my four grandchildren, two boys and two girls, experience three types of marine sports from elementary school to high school. They were a bit stiff during parasailing, but everyone was extremely satisfied with the banana boat ride. Thank you to everyone at the staff!

小学校から高校までの男女4人の孫にマリーンスポーツ３種を体験させました。
パラセーリングは少し体が固まっていましたが、バナナボートは最高と全員大満足でした。sたっふの皆さんありがとうございました。

I found that the water wasn't as clear as I had hoped. The sandy beach wasn't as beautiful as I expected either. I want to visit the sandbar I went to two years ago again!

泳いでみて思ったほど透明度は良くなかった。砂浜も思ったほど綺麗ではなかった。一昨年行ったサンドバーにもう一度行ってみたいです！

One important thing to note when you arrive at Hilo Airport is to head to the Bus Loading Zone pickup area at the end of the Baggage Claim Terminal. Walk outside of the Baggage Claim area on the first floor, turn right, and proceed toward the restrooms at the west end of the terminal, where a Polynesian Adventure vehicle will pick you up.

Our tour guide, Dexter, was incredibly knowledgeable, as he was born and raised on the Big Island. He was a wonderful gentleman, showing great respect, kindness, and compassion for everyone. A lunch was provided, which included a turkey wrap, kettle-cooked chips, a chocolate chip cookie, and a refillable metal water container. We also made a stop at Big Island Candies for some sweet treats. While we didn't need to wear pants or jackets, wearing hiking boots for ankle support is highly recommended due to the rough and slippery terrain.

Our Blue Hawaiian Helicopters pilot, David (nicknamed "Chewy"), was also very knowledgeable. He videotaped our entire flight upon request, and we even had our photo taken, which was uploaded onto the USB thumb drive. Remember to bring your photo ID. You will also need to view a safety video.

Overall, it was an excellent experience and well worth the money.

At first, I wasn't sure what to do, but since it was a famous place and seemed interesting, I decided to participate. The buggy ride was amazing!

最初は、どうしようかなと思ったのですが、有名な場所であり、面白そうなので参加しました。
バギー最高でしたよ。

Such a great experience for the kiddos. Fast and thrilling and lots of great stops through the ride.

Bus driver was really safe as well as friendly. We had more than enough time to explore the park and got some extra Waikiki history, all was well!

The water on the west side is super clear, we really enjoyed this snorkel tour away from Waikiki!

Beautiful waterfall, and a gorgeous hike in. We had just enough time, a perfect tour.

I went with my 7-year-old and 11-year-old daughters. When we arrived, the weather was perfect, and everyone was pumped up, saying, "Let's have a blast today!"

First, we headed to the wave pool, which was a great point because it was shallow enough for the girls to play safely. Life jackets were also provided, ensuring safety.

We borrowed some floaties and headed straight to the pool! At first, the girls were a bit nervous, but as they floated around, they started to relax.

And then, **boom!** Big waves came crashing in regularly! My 7-year-old was squealing with excitement as she jumped into the waves, while my 11-year-old enjoyed riding the waves a bit more calmly but still having fun. I joined in the wave action, and before we knew it, we were all laughing together!

Just as we were saying, "Let's take a little break," it happened.

**Whoosh!**

A sudden downpour! The blue sky from just moments ago was replaced by a torrential rain in no time.

With my daughters looking disappointed, we hurried to the food court for shelter. Under the roof, it was packed with others seeking refuge from the rain, just like us.

I had heard that Hawaii's weather can change quickly, but this was something else... My daughters seemed a bit bored. Then, out of nowhere, bubbles started floating around.

It turned out that a staff member from Wet'n'Wild had turned on a bubble machine for the kids!

Colorful bubbles sparkled as they floated up into the air, and my daughters' eyes lit up as they started chasing them. Other kids were also captivated by the bubbles, and the gloomy atmosphere from the rain vanished. The food court was once again filled with smiles.

Unfortunately, the rain didn't let up, and we decided to leave Wet'n'Wild for now. But the sight of the bubbles left a deep impression on my daughters.

"We have to come back for sure!" they said. Next time, I want to make a comeback on a sunny day!

7歳と11歳の娘たちと行ってきました。到着した時は最高の天気で、「今日は思いっきり楽しむぞ！」と、みんなのテンションもMAXです。

まず向かったのは、お目当ての波のプール。娘たちも安心して遊べるように、遠浅になっているのが嬉しいポイントです。ライフジャケットもちゃんと用意されているので、安全性もバッチリ。

浮き輪を借りて、さっそくプールへGO！最初は少し緊張していた娘たちも、プカプカ浮かんでいるうちにリラックスしてきた様子。

そして、**ドーン！** 定期的に大きな波がやってきます！7歳の娘はキャーキャー言いながら波に飛び込み、11歳の娘は少し冷静に、でも楽しそうに波乗りを楽しんでいました。私も一緒に波と戯れて、気がつけば家族みんなで大笑い！

「ちょっと休憩しようか」と話していた、その時です。

**ザーーーーーッ！！**

突然のスコール！さっきまでの青空が嘘のように、あっという間に土砂降りの雨になってしまいました。

「え～っ！」と残念そうな娘たちを連れて、急いでフードコートへ避難。屋根の下には、私たちと同じように雨宿りをする人でいっぱいでした。

ハワイの天気は変わりやすいとは聞いていたけれど、ここまでとは…。娘たちも少し退屈してきた様子。すると、どこからともなくシャボン玉がフワフワと舞い始めました。

なんと、Wet'n'Wildのスタッフの方が、子供たちのためにシャボン玉マシーンを稼働させてくれたんです！

色とりどりのシャボン玉がキラキラと輝きながら空中に舞い上がり、娘たちは目をキラキラさせて追いかけ始めました。他の子供たちもシャボン玉に夢中で、さっきまでの雨の憂鬱な雰囲気はどこへやら。フードコートは、再び笑顔で溢れました。

残念ながら、雨はなかなか止まず、今回はここでWet'n'Wildを後にすることに。でも、最後に見たシャボン玉の光景は、娘たちの心にも深く刻まれたようです。

「また絶対に来ようね！」と娘たち。今度は、晴れた日にリベンジしたいな！

Had a great time. very friendly staff, well organized production.
It may be their job but everyone seemed to enjoy making sure you have a great time.
go. get the pictures. the memories are priceless.

bonus : go on Friday and you get the fireworks show on the water with Waikiki as the backdrop. what could be better???

Had a great time on a special day. everyone there was friendly and entertaining

Minnesota family. We do not like the food but good customer service

We enjoyed the ride! There was two of us on the trip and it was so pleasant. It rained briefly but didn’t stop us. The guide was knowledgeable and very friendly. We will definitely tell our friends about it and do it again when we come back. Thank you!!! Mahalo!

I chose the five-star experience as a reward for myself. The wonderful staff and their smiles made it special. Although I attended alone, the staff were considerate, and the other participants reached out to me, allowing me to have a very enjoyable time.

The drink tickets, which allowed me to choose from a variety of beverages starting with a toast of sparkling wine, were very smart and convenient. I initially ordered the Lava Flow, which I always enjoy in Hawaii. Next, I had red wine to pair with the prime steak.

The dishes were creatively prepared, starting with the appetizers, which were fantastic, and the meat was very delicious. The sunset, fireworks, and wonderful music all contributed to a truly memorable experience. I definitely want to come back with my family next time. Thank you very much.

自分へのご褒美に５スターを選びました。素晴らしいスタッフと笑顔。１人で参加でしたが、スタッフの方々がご配慮いただいたり、同じご参加されている方々がお声がけをしてくださり、とても楽しい時間を過ごさせていただきました。
飲み物もスパークリングワインでの乾杯からたくさんの飲み物から選べる飲み物のチケット２枚はとてもスマートでわかりやすく便利でした。私はハワイで毎回いただくラヴァフローを最初オーダーしました。次は、プライムステーキに合わせて赤ワインをいただきました。
お料理も工夫されていて、アペタイザーから素晴らしく、お肉もとても美味しかったです。サンセット。花火。素晴らしい音楽。どれをとっても楽しい素晴らしい思い出となりました。次回は家族と是非伺いたいと思います。ありがとうございました。

I participated with my daughter. The staff members were very kind, and we were able to enjoy the experience comfortably. I especially want to thank Minako. We were able to see many dolphins, which created wonderful memories. Captain Shanti was also fantastic.

娘と2人で参加しました。スタッフの方々がとても親切で気持ちよく参加できました。特にミナコさんに感謝です。念願のイルカもたくさん見られていい思い出が出来ました。キャプテンのシャンティさんも素敵でした。

I participated on December 28. I really wanted to go snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, and I heard that local tours are smooth and good because currently, access is strictly limited for environmental protection. It was indeed strict to enter the bay, and there was a long line of cars waiting. The guide seemed to be familiar with the local staff, which made things very smooth for us. All participants borrowed wetsuits. Since there are quite a few rocky areas, I thought it would be dangerous to just wear swimsuits. Please be careful. The guide, who was a couple, provided us with solid instruction on the basic techniques. Even I, who had a fear of water, quickly got used to it and enjoyed myself.

12月28日に参加しました。ハナウマ湾でシュノーケリングを是非したかったのと、現在、環境保護のために、人の出入りが厳しく制限されているということで、現地ツアーがスムーズで良いと聞いたからです。本当に湾に入るのは厳しく、順番待ちの車がズラーッと並んでいました。ガイドさんは現地の係員さんと顔馴染みのようで、こちらはとてもスムーズだったように思います。ウエットスーツは参加者全員借りていました。割と岩場があるので、水着だけでは怪我してしまうと思いました。お気をつけください。ガイドさんはご夫婦で私達を案内してくれて、基本的テクニックをしっかり教えてもらえました。水に恐怖感があった私も、すぐ慣れて楽しめました。

It was my first time parasailing and jet skiing, and I enjoyed both to the fullest! After finishing parasailing, I moved to another boat to go jet skiing. Both were a lot of fun!

初めてのパラセーリング＆ジェットスキーでしたが、両方満喫できました！パラセーリング終了後に別のボートに移動しジェットスキーをしました。どちらも楽しかったです！

It rained the day before, so there was no dust at all, and it was comfortable. It was fun to drive through the great outdoors, which is a rare experience. The instructor was kind, and the 2-hour tour flew by.

前日に雨が降り、全く砂埃がなくて、快適でした。
なかなか体験できない大自然の中を自分の運転で走り抜けるのは楽しかったです。
インストラクターも優しくて、2時間のツアーあっという間でした。

Last March, I was able to see the sunrise from the summit. This year, I climbed to the summit around 8:30 AM on April 17, but isn't it impossible to see the sunrise from the summit in April? The gate opens at 6 AM, and the sunrise on April 17 should be around 6:10 AM, but it takes more than 10 minutes to reach the summit, so wouldn't it be a sunrise seen from partway up?

昨年3月に山頂から日の出を見ることが出来ました。本年は、4月17日に山頂へは8時30分ごろに登りましたが、4月は山頂から日の出が見るのは無理なのではないですか？ゲートが6時に開門して4月17日の日の出は6時10分ごろのはずですが、10分で山頂までは行けないので、途中からの日の出になるのではないですか？

Crew was very nice. Great catamaran and I loved being under sail for most of it (no engine noise).

The Angel's Sea was amazing. The scenery was beautiful, and the water was so clear that I could see fish swimming with the naked eye. I saw many turtles on the way to the sandbar, and during snorkeling, I encountered a turtle that came out from the rocks and was able to swim close to it, which was truly moving! The lunch with hamburgers grilled on the boat was incredibly delicious, and the kids were thrilled. The staff was friendly, and I had such a great time that I definitely want to go again!

天使の海は最高でした
景色はもちろん、海の透明度も高くて裸眼でお魚が泳いでる姿が見れるくらい綺麗でした。
亀はサンドバーに向かう時に沢山見れて、シュノーケリングの時も岩場から出てきた亀に遭遇し近くを一緒に泳ぐことが出来て感動しました♪
船上で焼いてくれたハンバーグを挟んで食べるランチは最高に美味しくて子ども達も大喜びでした。
スタッフの方もフレンドリーでとても楽しくまた是非行きたいと思いました！！

I had always wanted to visit Kualoa Ranch in Hawaii. I participated with my parents and my two children, aged 8 and 10. We chose a plan that included transportation, and since we stayed at the Embassy, we were picked up at the Sheraton. At that point, there was a guide who spoke Japanese, so it was reassuring even though we couldn't speak English. They also showed us a video in Japanese with important information before the experience.

We followed behind another guide on buggies, keeping about two buggies' distance. We stopped about three times along the way for explanations about the locations and to take photos. Everything during those stops was in English, so I thought it would have been even more enjoyable if I understood English ( ; ; ).

I was a bit worried that my children might be scared of the buggies, but they were completely fine. The thrill of the bumpy roads and climbing hills excited them, and they were captivated by the stunning views of Kualoa. It was a memorable two hours.

ハワイで一度は行きたかったクアロアランチ。父母、8歳と10歳の子どもの4人で参加しました。
送迎付きプラン、エンバシー宿泊だったのでシェラトンでピックアップしてもらいました。その時点で日本語を話せるガイドさんがいるので、英語が話せなくても安心です。体験前の注意事項も、日本語のビデオを見せてくれます。
バギーは別のガイドさんの後ろを2台分くらいあけて付いて行きます。途中3回ほど降りて、その場所の説明や、写真を撮る時間がありました。そのあたりは全て英語なので、英語が分かればもっと楽しかっただろうなと思います（ ; ; ）
子どもがバギーを怖がるかと少し心配していましたが、全くそんなことはありませんでした。凸凹道や坂を登る多少のスリルに子どもたちは大興奮、クアロアの絶景に魅了され、心に残る2時間でした。

The hike up to the light house was epic! Beautiful! Glad we did it. The weather also cooperated so we were blessed with beautiful blue skies. Picture perfect!
Blow hole… wish we could have stayed longer. 10 minutes wasn’t enough to appreciate the sights.

Dan from Blue Hawaii Divers was absolutely 💯 amazing. Very knowledgeable, thorough and caring. Great husband and wife duo. 5 star

Dan was a great guide. Very knowledgeable about the history and we saw so many fish.

My wife and I both celebrated our 70th birthdays and took our first trip to Hawaii. We discussed what activities to do! We challenged ourselves to try parasailing for the first time, and it was amazing. We will definitely come back to try it again! However, if you are prone to seasickness, please take some medication.

私と女房は、共に古希を迎えて、初ハワイ。
何を活動しようかと相談！
初パラセーリングにチャレンジ、最高でした。また、チャレンジしに来るぞ〜。
但し、船酔いする人は、薬飲んでくださいね

I was disappointed with Mr. T, the guide for the Kaneohe Bay cruise package tour! He might be the same guide mentioned in someone else's experience on the Jurassic Park movie location tour.

カネオヘ湾クルーズパッケージツアーのガイドのMr.Tさんにゲンナリ！
どなたかが体験談に紹介されていたジュラシックか映画ロケ地巡りツアーでのガイドと同じかもです。

I hesitated to cancel because it seemed scary after I signed up, but I really enjoyed the experience. Once you start flying, it’s not as scary as it looks from below, and the view is amazing; it feels really good. The instructor was also humorous and very kind.

申し込んでみたものの怖そうだから、やっぱりキャンセルしようか迷いましたが、体験して本当に楽しかったです。
下から見ているよりも、飛んでしまえばそれ程怖さも感じなくて、景色も最高だし、とっても気持ちがいいです。
インストラクターの方もユーモアがあり、とても親切です。

I had a very enjoyable experience. The people on the boat were also wonderful, and we were able to enjoy a fun boat trip in a friendly atmosphere. During parasailing, I fell into the sea a few times, which was thrilling and very entertaining! However, if you wish to purchase photos, please make sure to inform the staff directly on the boat before parasailing!

とても楽しい経験をすることができました。船に同乗していた方々もとても素敵な方たちで、和気あいあいとした雰囲気の中、楽しい船旅を楽しむことができました。
パラセーリング中には何度か海に“ドボン”と落ちることもあり、それがまたスリル満点でとても面白かったです！
ただ、写真の購入を希望される方は、必ずパラセーリング前に船の上で、写真購入希望の旨を直接スタッフに伝えるようにしてください！！

Thank you all for the great adventure. Lots of turtles and what a beautiful setting!
