All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

It wasn't a full moon or new moon, so the water level was higher, but it was still beautiful! It felt like the time was short, but I think I wouldn't have been able to come without the tour, so I'm satisfied.

満月・新月ではなかったので、水位は高めでしたがそれでも綺麗でした！時間が短い気もするけど、ツアーじゃないと来れないと思うので満足です。

It was a very pleasant place. I recommend it.

However, it seems that the sand area only appears during limited times, such as early morning. When I went without knowing this, I thought, "Huh, this looks a bit different from the guidebook and photos...?!"

Also, it seems that the hotel pickup time can be a bit delayed, so you don't need to worry if they don't arrive right away; just be there, and you'll be fine!

The female guide took a lot of wonderful photos, so I recommend handing over your camera for her to take pictures!

Next time, I want to go again during the time when the sand area is available.

とっても心地の良いところでした。
オススメです。

ただ、砂場が現れるのは、
早朝などの限られた時間のようで、
なにも知らずに行った私は、
あれ、ガイドブックと写真が
ちょっと違う、、、！？
となりました！

また、ホテルでのピックアップ時間が
多少遅れることがあるみたいなので、
こないからといって、ソワソワしなくても、
ちゃんとそこにいれば大丈夫です！

ガイドの女性が、ステキな写真を
いっぱい撮ってくださったので、
カメラを渡して撮っていただくことが
オススメです！

今度は、砂場の出てる時間帯に
また行ってみたいです。

About 18 years ago, I did a photoshoot at a sandbar for work. At that time, the sandbar completely emerged as land, and I remember shooting there for about 2 to 3 hours. This time, I applied for my daughter (a high school freshman) to have that wonderful experience as well. However, the sandbar did not emerge above the water. According to the female guide, due to rising sea levels and the tides at that time, it seems that land formation has become rare recently. However, my daughter was satisfied as she discovered a sea turtle and enjoyed her first snorkeling experience. The woman who guided us and instructed us was very pleasant, and all the staff were cheerful people. I wouldn't recommend it for very young children, but I think it would be a good experience for middle school-aged kids.

18年ほど前に仕事でサンドバーで撮影をしました。そのときは、完全に砂浜が陸地になり、2時間～3時間はその陸地で撮影をした記憶があります。今回、娘（高1）にもその素晴らしい体験をさせようと思い申し込みました。しかし、サンドバーが、水上に出てくることはありませんでした。ガイドの女性によると、やはり地球の海面上昇や、そのときの潮の満干でほとんど最近は、陸地ができることはないそうです。しかし娘は、ウミガメを発見したり、初めてのシュノーケリングを楽しんだようで、満足しておりました。旅の案内やインストラクターをしてくれた女性の方は、大変感じがよく、スタッフもみんな愉快な人たちでした。あまり小さな子供たちにはお勧めしませんが、中学ぐらいの子供たちには良い経験になるかと思います。

We participated as a family of four (with a 2nd-year middle schooler and a 5th grader). The hotel pick-up was smooth, and we felt reassured that the American husband spoke Japanese without any issues. The two women were snorkeling for the first time, but they were kindly taught and had no problems enjoying it at all! The masks and snorkels were also the latest models and very clean. It was a bit disappointing that we didn't get to see any turtles and that the time at Hanauma Bay felt a bit rushed.

家族4人で参加しました。（中学2年・小学5年）
ホテルからの送迎もスムーズで、アメリカ人のご主人も日本語問題なく安心できました。
女性2人は初シュノーケリングでしたが、親切に教えてもらいまったく問題なく楽しめました！
マスクやシュノーケルも最新できれいでした。
亀に会えなかったのと、少し時間が短くﾊﾅｳﾏ湾でばたばた感があったのが残念でした。

The sandbar I was most looking forward to in Hawaii! I made a reservation for the day with the shallowest water during my 5-night, 7-day stay, but unfortunately, it rained. A few days ago, an acquaintance went and said it was really beautiful, so I was truly disappointed.

Since it was Saturday, there was a high school boy who spoke Japanese working part-time. The staff were neither particularly good nor bad, but the hot tea and sandwiches we had in the cold were delicious.

今回のハワイで1番楽しみにしてたサンドバー！5泊7日の中で1番水深が浅い日を選んで予約しましたが、残念ながらの雨でした。数日前に知人が行ったのですが、すごいキレイとのことだったので本当に残念。
土曜日だったので、高校生の日本語が話せるバイトの男の子がいました。スタッフは特別いいわけでも悪いわけでもありませんでしたが、寒い中で食べるホットティーとサンドウィッチはおいしかったです。

I would highly recommend the Navatek Dinner Cruise. My husband and I both chose a chicken entree and it was fabulous. The staff was friendly and fun. The entertainment was awesome. This was our second time on board and we will definitely do it again. Thanks Navatek!!

It was disappointing that the weather was cloudy, but there were Japanese staff members, and I was able to have fun. I want to try again and see a sunny sandbar!

お天気が曇りだったのが残念でしたが、日本人のスタッフの方もいて、楽しく遊ぶことができました。たまリベンジして、晴れたサンドバーを見たいです！

If you sit in the front, there are snorkeling sets and life jackets available, so many people come back to return wet items after use, and even if you put your belongings in the chair, seawater will splash and get them wet. Be sure to check the tide levels. When I was there, the shallow areas were about ankle-deep, and the sandy beach was not visible above ground. When we returned to the port, the afternoon group had arrived, but I think it had become normally deep by the time we left.

前方に座る場合は、シュノーケルセットやライフジャケットがあるので、使用後濡れたものを返却しにくる人多数で、椅子の中に荷物を入れていても、海水が飛んでくるので濡れます。潮の引き具合は必ず調査して下さい。私の時は浅い所がくるぶしくらい、砂浜は地上には現れていませんでした。港へ帰ると午後便の方々が来ていまさしたが、行く頃には普通に深くなっていたと思います。

I have a significant fear of heights, but I had no problems at all!! The reason I decided to challenge myself to jump from 150 meters was because I saw everyone's experiences.

Since I participated alone, I jumped with others. Everyone was supposed to jump from different heights, but from the boat, they all looked like they were at the same height. The price varies depending on the height, so I'm really unsure if the person I jumped with was actually at the same height as me. Was it possible they were lower than 150 meters? Did the person I jumped with not actually want to jump from 150 meters? If that could be clarified, it would have been incredibly fun☆

I definitely recommend taking photos. I think they make for great memories. If they could also provide photos (or videos) from above while jumping, that would be even better. I want to jump again when I go to Hawaii!! The staff made it enjoyable, so I created wonderful memories.

かなりの高所恐怖症の私ですが、全く問題ありませんでした！！
そんな高所恐怖症の私が150メートルに挑戦してみようと思ったのも、みなさんの体験談を見たからです。

１人で参加のため、他の人と飛びました。みなさん飛ぶ高さが違う・・・はずですが、
船から見ていると全部同じ位の高さに見えました。
高さによって値段は変わるので、私と一緒に飛んだ人は果たして同じ高さだったのかものすごく微妙です。
実は１５０メートルより低かったんじゃないか？
一緒に飛んだ人は１５０メートル希望じゃないんじゃないか？と。
そのあたりがクリアになれば、ものすごく楽しかったです☆

写真も絶対にオススメです。良い記念になると思います。
飛んでいる上からの写真（映像等）もできる様になれば、もっと最高だと思います。
またハワイに行ったら飛びたいです！！
スタッフの皆さんが楽しませてくれたので、良い思い出が出来ました。

I always go snorkeling, but I booked this tour because I wanted to swim with dolphins. It takes a little time to get to the location, but the sea is clear. When we spotted the dolphins, we all jumped into the water. The dolphins swam gracefully in the deep water.

It might be a bit different from what you imagine when you see it on TV, but wild dolphins are amazing. We also got to go canoeing, which was fantastic. The hamburger we had at the end was the best for the kids.

シュノーケリングは、いつもしているがイルカと泳ぎたいというリクエストに、このツアーに予約をしました。場所までは、少し時間がかかりますが、海は澄んでいます。イルカ発見いっせいに海へ。イルカは深いところを優雅に泳いでいます。
　テレビで見ているような一緒に泳ぐを想像するとちょっと違うかも。しかし野生のイルカ最高です。そのほかに、カヌーなどもさせていただいて。最高。最後に食べたハンバーガーが子供たち最高でしたということです。

It was cloudy, so the sea was a bit murky, but I really enjoyed the sandbar! It was totally fine even for snorkeling beginners! I want to participate again, and I hope it will be sunny next time! If the tide isn't too high, I would like to walk on the island. However, seeing the sea turtles and manta rays was a great memory.

曇ってたから海も少し濁ってましたが、サンドバー満喫！シュノーケリング初心者でも全然おっけー！！でした。次も参加したいなと思うので、次こそ晴れてるといいな！潮も満ちすぎてなかったら、島を歩きたいです。でもウミガメとマンタがみれたのは、いい思い出です。

This was my second time at the sandbar, and it felt like a heavenly beach with a white sandy path in the middle of the blue sea, with water depth up to my shins. I encountered sea turtles at the snorkeling spot, and above all, the hamburgers eaten on the boat after the activities in the sea were incredibly delicious! They are more memorable than any gourmet burger listed in guidebooks. I recommend checking the tide schedule before making a reservation.

2度目のサンドバーでしたが、青い海の真ん中に白い砂の道、水深はスネぐらいでまずまずの天国の海感でした。
シュノーケリングスポットでは海亀にも遭遇したし、なにより海でのアクティビティ後に船の上で食べるハンバーガーはなんて美味しいのでしょう！ ガイドブックに載っているどのグルメバーガーより想い出に残ります。
潮の満ち引きを調べての申し込みをお勧めします。

Saw many turtles of all sizes. There were 101 people registered for this trip when I went and 2 boats. Even though there were 101 people, the view + experience overlapped everything.
Negative part: Bathroom was very unclean so I did not use the restroom at all during the trip.
Tip: Bring hand sanitizer since it is 50 people to a boat with 1 bathroom that is questionable..
Overall: A must see.

The water level was high, but the weather was nice, the sea was beautiful, and I really enjoyed my first snorkeling experience. After coming out of the sea, they had prepared warm drinks, which was a nice touch for my chilled body. Also, the hamburgers eaten on the water were exceptional, and I definitely want to join again when I go to Hawaii. I hope to see even more beautiful scenery next time! ^^

水面は高かったけど、天気もよく、海もきれいで、初シュノーケリングもとても楽しめました。
海からあがったら温かい飲み物を準備してくれていて、冷えた体にはうれしかったです。
また、海の上で食べるハンバーガーは格別でハワイに行く際にはぜひまた参加したいです。
そのときはもっときれいな景色が見れるといいな＾＾

If you're going to Hawaii, you definitely want to see the emerald-colored sea! I joined four friends to experience this. As expected in Hawaii, not only did we see the emerald color, but we also enjoyed various shades of blue in the ocean, which was very satisfying. Although I couldn't swim with the sea turtles as I had hoped, I did get to meet some gracefully swimming sea turtles. We had time to snorkel and had fun swimming with various fish besides the sea turtles. The meal was delicious, especially the hamburgers that we made ourselves with our favorite ingredients, and there were also fruits available. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to spend some relaxing time at the sandbar.

ハワイに行くなら、エメラルド色の海が見たい！そこで遊びたい！と4人の友だちと参加しました。さすがにハワイです。エメラルド色だけでなく、いろいろと違った色の”青い海”を見ることができ、大満足です。期待していた、ウミガメと一緒に泳ぐことはできませんでしたが、悠々と泳いできいるウミガメに会うことはできました。シュノーケルをして遊ぶ時間があり、ウミガメ以外の魚たちとは一緒に泳ぐことができ、楽しかったです。食事は、自分で好きな食材をはさんで作るハンバーガーは美味しかったし、フルーツもありました。また、ハワイに行く機会があれば、是非、サンドバーでゆっくり過ごしたいです。

I got bored during the show.
There wasn't much to eat. If you miss the first round, there's nothing left.
The seating is arranged in two rows in a U-shape with the stage in the center. The front row seems to be reserved for guests, so you can't sit there even if you arrive early.
You have to wait until the people in the front row finish before you can go to the buffet.
It's expensive for what you get, but since it's the Hilton, I suppose that's to be expected.
It became a memorable family trip.

ショーは途中で飽きちゃいました。
食事は食べるのもがあまりない。最初に取り損ねるともうありません。
席は２列でコの字でステージが中央にある。前列は宿泊者専用なのか早くても座れません。
バイキングの取りに行く順番も前列の席の人が終わってからじゃないといけません。
値段の割には高いですがヒルトンなので仕方が無いと思います。
家族旅行の記念にはなりました。

Rained most of day, so sopping wet weather in water or not. Confusion all day about activities etc.

I made a reservation because I wanted to see hula (since it feels like Hawaii). The food was quite delicious, and the atmosphere was nice. Additionally, it was fun to see various Polynesian dances, not just hula. The Tahitian performance was the most exciting, and my dad was invited on stage to dance, which made for a fun experience. Since we chose the standard seating, the stage was a bit far, but they danced facing different directions, so it was enjoyable even from the side. It was a bit pricey, but I think it was worth the cost.

フラが見たくて（ハワイっぽいから）予約しました。食事も結構美味しかったし、雰囲気も良かった。それに、フラだけではなくポリネシアンのいろいろなダンスが見られて楽しかった。タヒチは一番盛り上がり、うちのパパは誘われてステージにあがって踊らされ、楽しく過ごせた。スタンダードにしたのでステージは少し遠かったけど、いろいろな方向を向いてダンスしてくれていたので正面じゃなくても楽しめる内容だった。少し割高だけど、値段だけのことはあると思いました。

Cracias por sus atenciones y amabilidad y de igual forma gracias por hacer de nuestra luna de miel algo inolvidable El servicio y la comida excelentes y no se diga los tragos recomendado 100%

I initially made a reservation for 9/7 at 10:00, but when I arrived at the port, thunder started, and due to the captain's judgment, the trip was unfortunately canceled. I was able to rebook for the earliest available time at 13:00, and this time we were able to fly! I experienced this twice in Bali, but in Hawaii, we went much further out and climbed really high, so all three of us were very satisfied. The motorboat experience from the port to the open sea was also fun. I often hear about the pickup taking a while, but in our case, we were surprised to find the bus waiting for us as soon as we stepped outside. However, the return of the boat seemed to be delayed, so if you have a tight schedule, it might be frustrating. The tip was displayed as $8 on the boat, and since I wasn't prepared with $1 bills, I panicked and ended up giving more, which meant I didn't have any tip left for Yano, our driver. Thank you, Yano, for the fun conversation and drink service. I'm sorry I couldn't give you a tip. I was worried about my valuables and only brought minimal cash, not taking my card, but I should have brought a bit more to buy an SD card.

最初9/7,10:00を予約したのですが、港に着いた時から雷が鳴りだし、船長の判断であえなく欠航。当日の一番早い空き時間帯13：00で再予約でき、今度は飛べました！バリ島でも2回体験しましたが、ハワイのはずいぶん沖まで出て、高く高く上がったので3人とも大満足～港から沖までのモーターボート体験も面白かった。お迎えがとかくココナッツタイムと、よく聞きますが、私たちの場合は、むしろ外に出たらもうバスが待ってる状態でびっくりしました。ただ船の帰港は遅れがちな感じで、あまりタイトな予定を組むとイライラするかも。チップは8ドルって船内に表示があって、1ドル札を準備していなかったのでうろたえて、多めに渡してしまい、送迎のヤノさんのチップが無くなってしまいました…ヤノさん楽しい話、飲み物サービスに感謝しています。チップ渡さなくてごめんなさい。貴重品が心配で、最小限の現金だけで、カード持って行かなかったけど、も少し持って行ってSD買えばよかった

I saw it in a guidebook and thought, "What is this? It's beautiful! Is there really a place like this?" I was so excited to join the tour! The guide was fluent in Japanese, funny, and I was completely satisfied!

Finally, we arrived at the sandbar! It was just too beautiful! I couldn't help but shout, "It's so pretty!"

If I go to Hawaii again, I will definitely visit again!

ガイドブックでみて、なにこれー、綺麗、ほんとにこんなとこがあるのー？見てみたい！！と思い、わくわくどきどきでツアーに参加♩
ガイドさんは日本語ペラペラだし面白いし大満足！
いざ、サンドバー！ほんと綺麗すぎる！絶対さけんでしまう、きれーって笑
ハワイ行ったら絶対また行く！

It was pouring rain when Patrick picked us up at the hotel. he was able to shuffle some of the tour around and quite literally worked magic so that when we got to the Arizona the sun came out. He was very knowledgeable and his humor made a very somber trip fun and interesting. Would definitely take another tour with him. the bus was Royal Star if that helps others.

Overall we had a good time at the Luau. I felt the food was pretty good with the exception of the fish not being cooked enough but the wife felt the food was lacking a fair bit. The show was very enjoyable and entertaining. Met some great folks at the table with us and overall really enjoyed the show.

My wife and I loved the ATV tour at Kualoa Ranch. Our tour guide "Tina" was great and very knowledgeable and friendly. For us it was really getting to see the natural beauty of Hawaii. We chose the 2 hour ATV trip and it was well worth it. The views were incredible and something we will never forget.

This is a round-trip bus + ticket only usage. (Meals were purchased separately on-site as needed.)

My child really likes this place, so we decided to come again on this trip. The slides and the tornado ride are still so much fun! Our whole family had a great time.

The air conditioning on the bus can be quite strong, and when it gets a bit cloudy at the location, the wind can feel cold, so it's better to bring a jacket or something.

The rental locker size is just about big enough for one large locker for three family members, but if you get creative, it might work. Since you'll need to store changes of clothes and footwear, having two larger lockers would be safer.

The food isn't anything special, but it's a bit pricey... probably tourist area prices.

※往復バス＋チケットのみでの利用です。

子どもがここを気に入っているので、今回の旅行でも来てみました。
スライダーも、トルネードも、やっぱり楽しい！
家族全員で十分楽しめました。
バスの中のエアコンは結構きついのと、現地でちょっと曇ったりす

が良いです。
レンタルロッカーは、家族３人なら大き目サイズ１つに、工夫すれ
ば入るかなという大きさ。着替えなどの他に、履物とかも入れるの
で、大き目サイズ２つが無難といえば無難。
食事は、何かすごいという訳ではないですが、少々高め。。観光地
価格なんでしょうね。

Fabulous trip. Professional staff. Great snorkels and goggles. Safe. Loads of turtles to see. Really special way to see Waikiki and turtle canyon

I was able to swim with sea turtles by chance and see coral fish. The sea was also clear and very beautiful! The barbecue hamburgers were also very delicious! Thank you very much! (^ ^)

ウミガメと偶然にも泳げたり、珊瑚の魚をみたり
海も透明でとっても綺麗でした！バーベキューのハンバーガーもとても美味しいかったです！
ありがとうございました(^ ^)

It was a fun program where we kissed dolphins, touched them, and swam together. I absolutely recommend it. It was the most enjoyable part of my stay in Hawaii.

イルカとキス、触ったり一緒に泳いだりと楽しいプログラムでした。
絶対お勧めします。
ハワイ滞在で1番楽しかったです。

I was really looking forward to my first trip to Hawaii. Even for those who can't swim, it was enjoyable and incredibly beautiful. I believe this is a tour that everyone should participate in at least once. The staff were very accommodating, and it truly became a wonderful memory.

初めてのハワイで、1番楽しみにしておりました。
泳げない人でも楽しめ、とにかく綺麗でした。絶対に1度は参加するべきツアーだと思います。
スタッフの方の対応もよく、本当によい思い出になりました。

Highly recommend doing this!! A very very amazing and memorable experience
