All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

I think it is a tourist trap. We were very disaponted. We felt they were bot looking fot whales but that they allready had a route fixed

I've never been to a fishing cruise so this was a great excursion for a first timer like myself. The boat actually departed from right behind the Hilton Waikiki Hotel where we stayed, so we could just walk over to the check-in. The crew was super friendly and helpful. It did take a few tries to get a hang of it, and the fish kept taking our bait. After my 4th or 5th try, I caught my first fish! They did change the fishing spot a few times and one of the passengers got an edible fish so they cooked it right there and served everyone. Highly recommended for the entire family!

I was excited from the moment I got on the boat. The beach volleyball at the sandbar was intense, but that made the hamburgers for lunch taste even better! The snorkeling around the coral reef revealed sights I had never seen before, and I was thrilled to swim with turtles! I definitely want to go again! ((´∀｀))

船に乗った時点からワクワクでした、サンドバーに着いてからのビーチバレーは激しかったですがその分お昼のハンバーガーが美味しかったです！
サンゴ礁の周りをぐるり一周するシュノーケリングでは見たことない光景が広がり、亀と一緒に泳げて感動しました！
ぜひまた行きたいです((´∀｀))

First of all, we had the experience of riding a glass-bottom boat at various tourist spots, but my eldest and second sons were extremely excited about the submarine. There were many families with small children, and it was great that we could enjoy our time without any issues even when our youngest shouted loudly every time he saw a fish or a turtle inside the vessel. The next day, we were very satisfied playing in the sand at the beach during departure.

先ずは、各観光地でグラスボートに乗船経験はありましたが、潜水艦という事で長男・次男は
大興奮でした。
小さな子供連れの家族が多く、艦内で末っ子が魚・亀を見るたびに大きな声を出しても問題な
く過ごす事が出来ました。
翌日は、出港時のビーチで砂遊びをして大満足でした。

Went with my 11 year old and had a wonderful time! We flew over a sea turtle! Capt Kevin and his assistant Dylan were great!

I had previously experienced parasailing, so I chose this tour, which is more expensive than others.

The meeting place was in front of Quiksilver in the city center. It's easy to find since there aren't many people, but the road isn't very wide and there's no shade, so it was hot while waiting. The pickup vehicle was described as a "colorful trolley bus with the logos of 'Honolulu Screamer' and 'X-Treme Parasail'," but it was just a regular van. Since there were no logos and the staff didn't call out names when they arrived, it's better to ask if a vehicle that looks like it has come.

After checking in at the port, we were assigned to a boat and set off immediately. The boat I was on had 10 people in 5 pairs. The boat goes quite fast, so it rocks a bit. We didn't ride for a long time, but if you're worried about motion sickness, it might be a good idea to take some medication beforehand.

The staff efficiently explained everything and prepared the equipment, and we took turns flying. The actual time in the air was about 5 to 6 minutes, which is quite short. I chose 110 meters, but it didn't feel very high, so I thought I could have gone for 150 meters instead. I'm not great with heights, but I didn't feel scared at all, so I think anyone can enjoy it. Hawaii always has a breeze, but it was very stable in the air, so I could relax and enjoy it.

At the end, it's standard to dip your feet and lower body in the water when landing, but we weren't able to do that since we wore clothes over our swimsuits. I was a bit disappointed because I thought I was prepared to get wet. Those who were only in swimsuits were able to get wet, so if you want to do that, it's better to take off your clothes.

The weather was great, and I enjoyed the beautiful views of Waikiki, Diamond Head, and the stunning ocean below from the air. Overall, the experience was short, so even those with limited time can easily enjoy Hawaii's beautiful scenery, and I highly recommend it!

パラセイリングは以前体験したことがあったので、他のツアーより高いこちらを選びました。

集合場所は街中のクイックシルバー前でした。人がたくさんいるわけではないので分かりやすいですが、道がそんなに広くない上に日陰がない場所なので、待っている間暑かったです。
迎えの車は、案内では「「Honolulu Screamer」「X-Treme Parasail」のロゴが入った、カラフルなトロリーバス」となっていましたが、普通のバンでした。ロゴが入っているわけでもなく、来てもスタッフの方が名前を呼んでくれるわけでもないので、それっぽい車がきたら自分から聞きに行った方がよいです。

港についてから受付後、ボートを割り振られてすぐに出港しました。私が乗ったボートは2人ずつ5組の10人でした。
ボートはかなりスピードを出すので結構揺れます。そんなに長い時間は乗りませんが、心配な方は酔い止めを飲んどいたほうがいいかも。

スタッフの方がてきぱきと説明、装備の準備をしてくれて順番に飛んでいきました。
実際に空中にいる時間は5,6分くらい。結構短いです。私は110mにしましたが、全然高いという感じはせずちょっと物足りなかったので150mにしてもよかったかなと思いました。
私は高いところが苦手なほうですが、怖いということは全くなかったのでどんな方でも楽しめると思います。ハワイは常に風が吹いていますが、空中でも特に揺れることもなくとても安定していたので安心して楽しむことができました。

最後降りるときに、足や下半身を水につけるのが定番ですが、私たちは水着の上に服を着ていたせいかやってもらえませんでした。濡れてもいい服で行ったつもりだったのでちょっと残念でした。水着のみになっていた方は水につけられていたので、やってもらいたい人は服を脱いだほうがいいです。

天気もよく空中からワイキキの街やダイヤモンドヘッド、足元に広がるキレイな海を堪能できて、とても気持ち良かったです。
ツアー全体を通しても短い時間で体験できるので、滞在時間が短い方でも気軽にハワイの綺麗な景色を楽しむことができおすすめです！

Great crew, great boat and lots of turtles. We were amazed how close to shore we were and how many turtles we saw. The turtles do not seem to be phased by the snorkelers and just hang around having their shells cleaned by the small reef fish. Fantastic to watch!

I have done snorkeling and diving many times in the past, but I had never experienced swimming with wild dolphins, so I decided to join this tour. The reason I chose this tour was that I read in the reviews that the staff seemed energetic and fun. In the end, choosing this tour was definitely the right decision!

Whether or not we would see dolphins and how many there would be depended on the season and luck, but thanks to the experienced captain searching for the right spots and the staff guiding us diligently, we were able to see many dolphins. We were lucky enough to encounter a rare large pod of nearly 100 dolphins swimming slowly, allowing us to see them up close and swim alongside them, which was incredibly moving!

We boarded the tour bus very early in the morning. I was a bit anxious about finding my pickup location (Sheraton) since it was a large gathering spot for various tours, but the welcoming staff were very energetic and had loud voices, so it was fine. Inside the bus, the chairperson, Julie, began the morning briefing. She explained everything enthusiastically, leaving no time for anyone to doze off, which actually heightened my excitement.

This time, we searched for dolphin spots and traveled quite far north along the west coast, so we spent a considerable amount of time on the boat. The boat did sway quite a bit, but since I took motion sickness medication, I didn’t feel sick; however, I think taking motion sickness medication is essential. On the way to the spot, we saw a few sea turtles from the boat.

I participated in March when the seawater was quite cold, so I wore a wetsuit, which can be rented on-site for $10 (cash only). Besides the cold, there’s also a risk of jellyfish stings, so I recommend wearing one if possible. Most participants on this tour were wearing wetsuits as well. It can get chilly on the boat after snorkeling, so it’s a good idea to bring something to cover up and a towel.

When we arrived at the spot, there were so many dolphins swimming in a pod that it was immediately noticeable. Following the staff's guidance, we swam towards the moving pod and saw many dolphins underwater! The water was clear, and the weather was good, so we could see them clearly, which was fantastic. We were also lucky to see them jumping and spinning multiple times. Since there was a considerable number of dolphins, I believe everyone got to see them, but to increase your chances of seeing them properly, it's best to stay close to the staff and follow their instructions. After a while, we briefly returned to the boat to change locations, but the previous pod came back to the same spot, so we jumped back into the water right away.

Overall, I think we were able to swim with the dolphins for a long time. However, because of that, the time for kayaking, paddleboarding, and snorkeling was shortened, and we spent only about 15-30 minutes at the new spot, which was a bit disappointing. We didn’t see any sea turtles while snorkeling, and there weren’t many fish either. Still, being able to enjoy such a large number of dolphins for a sufficient amount of time was more than enough to satisfy me.

On the return boat ride, we were served cheeseburgers and drinks, and we all danced the hula, making it enjoyable until the end. I was very happy to receive a group photo taken on the boat later via email.

Overall, I thought the staff's response was very smooth, and the tour content was well-organized without any wasted time. Their desire for everyone to see and enjoy the dolphins was evident.

It was an emotional experience and became the highlight of my trip. Thank you very much! If I go to Hawaii again, I would love to participate again!

シュノーケリングやダイビングは過去に何度もやったことがありましたが、野生のイルカと一緒に泳ぐというのは今まで体験したことがなかったのでこのツアーに参加しました。
こちらのツアーを選んだ理由は、体験談の口コミでスタッフの方が元気で楽しそうなところがいいなと思ったからです。
結果として、こちらのツアーを選んで大正解でした！

イルカに会えるかどうか、どのくらいの数がいるかどうかなどは、季節や運などに左右されてしまいますが、ベテラン船長がポイントを探してスタッフの方が一生懸命誘導してくれたので、たくさんのイルカを見ることができました。
運よくめったにない100匹近い大群がゆっくり泳いでいるところに出会えたので、一緒に泳いだと言えるほど近くでゆっくりイルカを見ることができとても感動しました！！

朝とても早い時間にツアーバスに乗り込みます。私がピックアップしてもらった場所(シェラトン)は、とても大きいツアー集合場所でいろいろなツアーの方がたくさんいたので、見つけられるか少し不安になりましたが、迎えのスタッフの方がとても元気で声が大きかったので(笑)大丈夫でした。
バスの中では委員長ジュリーさんの朝礼が始まります。元気いっぱいにいろいろ説明をしてくれて眠る隙は全くありませんでした(笑)逆に期待に気持ちが高まりました。

今回はイルカのポイントを探して、西海岸のかなり北の方まで行ったのでボートの乗っている時間が結構長かったです。ボートはやはり結構揺れるので、私は酔い止めを飲んでいたせいか酔いませんでしたが、酔い止めは必須だと思います。
ポイントに向かうまでの間に、ボートから何匹かウミガメを見ました。

私が参加したのは3月で海水が結構冷たかったので、ウェットスーツを着用しました。その場で$10(現金のみ)で借りることができます。寒さもそうですが、クラゲなどに刺されたりすることもあるそうなのでできたら着用することをおすすめします。今回のツアーでもほとんどの方が着ていました。
シュノーケル後など、船上では寒いこともあるので、羽織れるものとタオルは持って行った方がいいです。

ポイントに着くと、すぐに分かるくらいたくさんの数のイルカが群れになって泳いでいました。スタッフの方の誘導でイルカの群れが動く方に泳いで行き、海の中を見るとたくさんのイルカが見れました！水の透明度も高く天気もよかったためかはっきりと見えてとてもよかったです。しかもスピンしながらジャンプする姿も何度も見れてとてもラッキーでした。
今回はかなりの数のイルカの群れだったので参加者全員見れたと思いますが、ちゃんと見るチャンスを増やすにはなるべくスタッフの方の近くにいてその指示に従って行動するのがいいと思います。
その後一旦ボートに上がってポイントを変えようとしましたが、先程の群れがまた同じ場所に戻ってきたため、またすぐに海に飛び込びました。

トータルするとかなり長い時間、イルカを見ながら泳ぐことができたと思います。ただそのため、その後のカヤック、パドルボード、シュノーケリングの時間が短くなってしまいボートであまり移動せずその場で15～30分程度だったのが、少し残念でした。シュノーケルではウミガメは見れずお魚もあまりいませんでした。
ただ、あれだけの数のイルカをゆっくり十分な時間堪能できたので、それだけで十分満足しました。

帰りの船では、チーズバーガーや飲み物のサービス、みんなでフラを踊り、最後まで楽しませて頂きました。最後にみんなで船上で撮った集合写真を後でメールで送っていただくことができたので、とてもうれしかったです。

全体的にスタッフの方々の対応がとてもスムーズで、無駄のない良いツアー内容だったと思います。全員にイルカを見てもらおう、楽しんでもらおうという気持ちが伝わってきました。

感動的な体験ができて、旅行中の一番の思い出になりました。
本当にありがとうございました！またハワイに行くことがあれば参加したいです！！

We had a great time with our surfing lesson. The instructors were very helpful and encouraging. Would highly recommend as a fun morning activity.

It was a popular tour, so I participated with high expectations, and it truly was a wonderful experience that did not disappoint. Unfortunately, the temperature was a bit low, and it felt quite cold, but I am grateful for all the photos taken in various poses at the sandbar. We saw many sea turtles, and during snorkeling, we even saw a sea turtle sleeping with its head buried in the coral, which really impressed the kids. It was a great family outing.

人気のツアーということで、期待して参加しましたが、期待を裏切らない素晴らしいツアーでした。あいにく気温がやや低く、寒さを感じるくらいでしたが、サンドバーで色んなポーズの写真を沢山撮って頂き感謝しています。海ガメも沢山見られましたし、シュノーケリングでも、海ガメが珊瑚に頭を突っ込んで寝ているところも見られて、子供たちも感動していました。良い家族サービスができました。

Staff was very nice and helpful. We enjoyed the trip. Food was good for picnic food. It was a cold and windy day. The staff had hot chocolate, tea and coffee ready for everyone. The reef was not that great for snorkeling. Bland colors and not many fish. Watched Finding Nemo one too many times.

Waikiki is clear and sunny!!
But the other side was cloudy.

It was cold...
But the sandbar was beautiful!
By the time we returned to the harbor, it was clearing up nicely, so maybe it would have been better to depart in the afternoon...

Overall, I'm satisfied!

ワイキキは快晴！！
でも裏側は曇りでした


寒かったです、、
でもサンドバーはキレイでした！
港に帰る頃きれいに晴れてきてたのでもしかしたら昼から出発のほがよかったのかな。。

でも総合的には満足です！、

Great cost performance!
Great service!
Great food !
Great entertainment!

I must say I was a little skeptical... It turned out to be fantastic. We decided to go on this dinner cruise for my wife's birthday and we thoroughly enjoyed every bit of it. The food was great...surprising for a huge amount of people. The drinks, entertainment, the vessel, the views all spectacular. And the staff were first rate!!!! I would definitely do this again and quite frankly for the price...it is truly a bargain!!!

I went on a 5-night, 7-day honeymoon. I had a packed schedule, and I had to change the itinerary after arriving. I couldn't make copies at the hotel, so I got it done at the JCB Center, which worked out fine.
The person who picked us up was very entertaining. If you want to take photos, I recommend asking before getting on the boat. I asked others as well, but it's definitely worth it to buy them. I didn't experience any seasickness.
Above all, the view was amazing. It became a wonderful memory. I would love to do it again if I have the chance.

ハネムーンで5泊7日で行ってきました。予定いっぱい埋め込んでて着いてから日程変更してもらいました。紙はホテルでコピーできなかったのでJCBセンターでやってもらい大丈夫でした。
迎えはとても面白い方でした。写真をお願いしたい場合は船に乗る前にお願いしました。他の方へお願いもしましたが絶対買った方がいいです。船酔いはなかったです。
なにより眺め最高。いい思い出になりました。また機会があったらやりたいです。

Thank you, sea turtle, for all the great service! Snorkeling in the wonderful location with perfect weather was so much fun. Thank you to the guide and staff.

ウミガメさん、いっぱいサービスしてくれてありがとう(^O^)最高の気候に素晴らしいロケーションでのシュノーケリングは楽しかったです。ガイドさん、スタッフさんありがとうございました。

After exploring the sandbar, I was able to swim with the honu (sea turtles). I was very satisfied to see many honu and rays.

The return boat can be cold, so I think it's a good idea to bring a jacket.

サンドバー散策後はホヌさんと泳ぐ事出来ました。
ホヌ、エイ沢山見れて大満足です。

帰りの船は寒いので、上着を持って行った方がいいと思います。

It was great experience . we enjoyed celebrated our little ones first bday !! we enjoyed the food it was delicious!! a memorable experience!!!

That day, there happened to be only four participants, so we were able to enjoy a very relaxed experience. The dolphins came close to us in groups multiple times, which was very healing and moving. The instructors were very cheerful and kind; I thought they were all wonderful people. I would love to participate in this tour again.

その日はたまたま４人しか参加者がいなかったこともあり、とってものんびりと満喫することができました。イルカさんたちは群れで何度も近くに寄ってきてくれて、とても癒され、感動しました。インストラクターさんたちはとても明るくて優しく、皆様素敵な方々だなぁと思いました。またこのツアーに参加したいです。

It was a slightly windy day, but the weather was nice and the sea was very beautiful. I was moved when I stood on the sandbar, and I was completely satisfied with the endless blue sea and blue sky. The sand only appears for a limited time on certain days, and when I went, the water was about knee to waist deep, but I could still see the white sand and feel the soft sandy areas in places. The burgers for lunch were delicious, and both the captain and the crew were friendly, making it a truly enjoyable experience. I definitely want to go again.

少し風の強い日でしたが、天気は良く海がとても綺麗でした。
サンドバーに立てたときは感動しましたし、見渡す限り青い海と青い空で大満足でした。
砂が顔を出すのは本当に限られた日の限られた時間だけのため、私が行ったときは膝から腰あたりまでの深さがありましたが、それでも白い砂が見え、所々に柔らかい砂地を感じることができました。
お昼のバーガーも美味しかったですし、船長も船員さんも気さくで本当に楽しかったです。
ぜひまた行きたいと思います。

We saw no sea life at all. Not much seating and the whale guarantee was no good as it didn't cover transportation and times are very limited. Not worth the money, was told by others to take a smaller vessel next time.

I participated in January 2015.
The regulations state that you cannot approach whales within a certain distance, but I was pleasantly surprised when a whale surfaced nearby, causing the boat to back up.
On the way back, I encountered a sea turtle, which allowed me to conclude the enjoyable experience on a high note.

2015年１月に参加しました。
条例では、クジラに一定の距離以内に近づいていけいないことになっているが、
偶然近くに浮上してきたため、船がバックするハプニングがあり、逆にうれしかった。
帰りの航路では、ウミガメと遭遇し、楽しい体験を締めくくることができました。

The ocean and sandbar were very beautiful, but the wind was strong, and once I got back on the boat, I didn't feel like going back into the water. I was able to see sea turtles, and I recommend this tour. If I can come to Hawaii again next time, I would like to come on a warm day without wind.

海もサンドバーもとても綺麗でしたが、風が強く一度船に上がるとまた海に入る気にはなれませんでした。ウミガメも見ることができて、オススメのツアーです。次回またハワイに来られることができたら、風のない暖かい日にまた来たいと思います。

The history and the whole thing about pearl harbor was excellent , we were sadden that half of our tour was cancelled and there was no compensation for it .

I was really looking forward to swimming with dolphins for the first time! The lady on the bus was cheerful and kept talking, which was enjoyable!
We went quite far out on the boat, and as soon as we entered the water at the spot where the dolphins were, we encountered a pod, and it was incredibly moving!
Dolphins aren't that fast, so I was swimming alongside the same dolphin, which took quite a bit of energy. Those who weren't swimming much at the back might not have seen the dolphins as well. I worked hard to swim alongside the dolphins, so I was able to see them many times! I was very satisfied and had a great time on the boat too!

初めてイルカと一緒に泳げるという事でとても楽しみにしていました！バスの中ではお姉さんが明るくずっとお話ししてくれ楽しかったです！
船で結構沖まで行き、イルカがいるポイントで海に入りすぐ群れに遭遇しすごく感動しました！！
イルカはそんなに泳ぐのが早くないので同じイルカについて泳いでいましたので結構体力使います。後ろであまり泳いでいなかった方はイルカをそんなに見れてないかもしれません。私は頑張ってイルカについて泳いでいたので何回も見る事ができました！船でも楽しく大満足でした！！

It was the rainy season in Hawaii, but on this day, the north wind was particularly strong, and it was really cold. It would have been nice to have wetsuits available; being on an open boat while wet in that cold was quite tough.

I may have written something critical, but the sandbar was amazing, a breathtaking view that felt otherworldly. The staff were friendly, and I had a great time. I definitely want to visit again on a warm day! (*‘∀‘)

雨季のハワイでしたが、この日は特に北風が強くとにかく寒かったです。
ウエットスーツの貸し出し等あればよかったものの、あの寒さの中でふきっさらしのボートに濡れた状態で乗っているのはかなり辛いものがありました。

批判めいたことを書いてしまいましたがサンドバーは最高でした、この世のものとは思えぬ絶景です。スタッフの皆様も気さくで、楽しく過ごさせてもらいました。
是非また暖かい日に利用したいです(*‘∀‘)

I was able to see sea turtles! The sandbar was deep up to my thighs, but it was beautiful and moving. The bus ride there and back was too cold, so I recommend bringing a thick jacket.

ウミガメ見れました！サンドバーは太ももまで深さがあったのですが、綺麗で感動しました。行き帰りのバスが寒すぎたので、厚手の上着を持っていくことをオススメします。

We were blessed with great weather on the day, making it perfect for parasailing. The pickup was supposed to be in the lobby of our hotel, but the car didn't arrive even after the scheduled time. When I called the contact number listed on the voucher, a Japanese staff member explained that they were running about 20 minutes late due to traffic. After about 20 minutes, the pickup car finally arrived. Once we arrived at the location and completed the procedures, we were taken by boat to the relay point offshore, and from there, we headed further out on another boat. The staff were very friendly, and my boyfriend was invited by one of the staff to dive into the sea, which became a fun memory for us. There were three groups on our boat, and we took turns enjoying the parasailing. It was a promise to splash into the sea on the way up, which was also a fun part. After that, we went even higher, with a breathtaking view of Diamond Head and the vast ocean below. It was truly a wonderful sight. The boat rocked quite a bit during the transfers and while other groups were up in the air, so I think it would be wise for those prone to seasickness to take some medication beforehand. After disembarking, we had the option to purchase photos taken from the boat during parasailing and videos captured by a camera mounted above us. At $50 for both types, it felt a bit pricey, but the photos were really lovely, so I definitely recommend purchasing them. Additionally, we were lucky enough to see whales while on the moving boat. We were able to see their tails and spouts, making for a very satisfying day combined with parasailing. Next time, I plan to participate in other activities as well, in addition to parasailing.

当日は好天に恵まれ、絶好のパラセーリング日和でした。ピックアップは宿泊先のホテルのロビーとなっていましたが、時間になっても迎えの車は来ず。。バウチャーに記載された連絡先に電話すると、日本人スタッフの方が交通渋滞で20分ほど遅れている旨を説明して下さりました。その後ちょうど20分ほど遅れて迎えの車が到着しました。現地に着き、手続きを済ませると、船で沖の中継地点まで送ってもらい、そこから別の船でさらに沖に向かいました。スタッフの方たちはとてもフレンドリーで、同行した彼氏はスタッフの方に誘われて海にダイブしていました。これも楽しい思い出です。私たちの船は3組で、順番にパラセイリングを楽しみました。上空に上がる途中に海にジャボンはお約束♪これも楽しいところですね。その後さらに高いところまで上がり、眼下にはダイヤモンドヘッドや大海原。本当に素晴らしい景色でした。移動中や他のグループの方が上空にいる間の船内はかなり揺れるので、船酔いが不安な方は酔い止めを飲んでおいた方が良いように思いました。下船後、パラセイリング中に船から撮ってもらった写真と、頭上に取り付けてあったカメラで撮った動画を購入することができます。2種類で50ドルとやや高い気もしますが、とっても素敵な写真なので是非購入されることをオススメします。また、今回は運良く移動中の船でクジラを見ることができました。尾びれや潮を吹く姿を見ることができ、パラセイリングと合わせて大満足の1日になりました。次回はパラセイリングはもちろん、他のアクティビティにも参加してみようと思います。

My parents paid a lot of money to participate, but they said the sea was murky and there were no fish. It's disappointing.

せっかく高いお金を払って両親が参加しましたが、海が濁っていて魚がいないといっていました。
残念です。

Very comfortable way to see marine life in its natural habitat - no diving course required. My only complaint is that is that it was over way too quickly, but then you can always go again.
