All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

The 150m course was amazing. It felt about twice as long as I imagined, and the operator's skills were excellent, creating a fantastic feeling of weightlessness. 😀

150mコースが最高でした。
想像の2倍くらいの長さに感じて、オペレーターの操作も上手くて　浮遊感が最高だった😀

I visited Hanauma Bay for the first time in 30 years. We arrived in an 8-passenger van before the parking lot opened, but there were quite a few cars lined up. Thanks to our guide departing early based on the previous day's situation, we were able to enter quite smoothly. It seems that tour guests can enter preferentially. Before descending to Hanauma Bay, we watched a video and received explanations, which took about 30 minutes. We descended about 30 meters down a steep slope in a large buggy that holds around 15 people. In the past, there were many fish near the shore because people fed them, but now there aren't as many. Following our guide, we were shown the areas where the fish are, from the left side of the bay to the right. Along the way, we were able to see a turtle. Additionally, we spotted a whale spouting outside the bay.

30年ぶりにハナウマ湾に行きました
8人乗りのバンで、駐車場の開場前に着きますが、結構車が並んでいます
ガイドさんが前日の様子から早めに出発したため、結構スムーズに入場できました
ツアー客は優先的に入場できるようです
ハナウマ湾に降りる前に、説明、ビデオを観るので、30分ぐらいかかります
ハナウマ湾までは、30mぐらいの急な坂を15人乗りぐらいの大型バギーで降ります
以前は、餌を与えていたため、波打ち際まで多くの魚がいましたが、今は余りいません
ガイドさんに従って、湾の左側から右側まで、魚がいるところを案内してくれます
途中でカメを観ることができました
また、湾の外にクジラの潮吹きが見られました

I have experienced various optional tours overseas, but this was the best. After jumping out of the boat and rising a little, it was nice to touch the water once. Then, we quickly ascended to the sky, and it was dynamic. The view of Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach from above was amazing. The flying time was about 10 minutes, but it was a great tour overall.

今まで海外で色々なオプショナルツアーを体験しましたが、一番良かった。
船から飛び出したあと、少し上がったあと、一度、着水するのも良かった。
その後、一気に上空まで昇り、ダイナミックでした。
上空からのダイアモンドベッド、ワイキキビーチの眺めは最高でした。
飛んでいる時間は10分ぐらいでしたが、それ以上にいいツアーでした。

I didn't expect to be able to ride in such a short time. At first, we practiced paddling on the beach for a few minutes, and then we went straight to the ocean. Since I don't have the skill to read the waves, they helped me find my way. Honestly, it was my first time going that far, and while it was good at first, I gradually started to feel tired.

The muscles used the most in surfing might be in the neck and arms.

You look forward while riding the surfboard, so your neck is engaged, and your arms are moving with the paddle. Especially before catching a wave, you really have to paddle hard, which I think leads to fatigue. But when you finally catch a wave, all the costs and tiredness just disappear. You feel like you've accomplished something.

こんな短時間で乗れるとは思ってなかった。
初めは、パドリングを砂浜で，数分レッスンの後，即海へ。
波を見る技量が無いので探してくれる、そこまで行くのが正直初めてだとはじめはよいですが、徐々に体力が

サーフィンで1番筋肉を使うのが
首と腕かもしれません。笑

首はサーフボードに乗りながら前を見るので、腕はパドルで動かすので、特に波に乗る前にガンガン回すので、疲れが来ると思います。
でも、乗れた時は金額とか、疲れとか、もはや無いですね。乗れたってなります。

We had such a such a great time with Dan and Keico. They were very caring, excellent services. We saw a school of fish, beautiful tropical fishes, and a turtle! We would not be able to venture so far without their guide. Dan’s Japanese was exceptionally good, it is hard to believe he learned it in Hawaii! Thanks for the unforgettable experience!

I have a severe fear of heights, and I was hesitant, but I signed up because of my child's wishes, and it was for 150 meters. My hand gripping the rope was tense, and it was tough, but when I looked around, I was overwhelmed by the beautiful scenery of the blue sea and sky, Diamond Head, and Waikiki Beach. To top it off, a rainbow welcomed us. It lasted about 10 minutes. It became the best experience of this trip.

私は極度の高所恐怖症で、気乗りしませんでしたが、子供の希望もあり申込、しかも150メートルを。ロープを持つ手は力が入りすぎ、大変でしたが、周りを見渡すと、青い海と空、ダイヤモンドヘッド、ワイキキビーチと景色の素晴らしさに圧倒されてしまいました。おまけに、虹まで歓迎してくれました。時間にして10分程度でしたでしょうか。この旅行において、最高の体験となりました。

The sliders open alternately. It might be difficult because you have to bring the float up from below.

Juice is included for free, but since it's in the same area as the food, you'll have to wait in line.

スライダーは交互にオープンします。
したから浮き輪を持って上がらないといけないので、そこが大変かもしれません


ジュースは無料でついてくるのですが、ご飯と一緒の場所なので、並びます。

This was my second time participating in the tour! My child was thrilled and had a great time! Since we had a buggy, it was safe! There were some changes to the course compared to last year, but it was so much fun!! I am very satisfied!

2度目のツアー参加でした！
子供も楽しいと大喜びでした！バギーなので、安全でした！去年と比べて少しコースが変わっている場所もありましたが、とても楽しかった！！大満足です！

Kaneohe Bay was an unforgettable day on the water! The crew was welcoming and friendly, the music set the perfect vibe, and there were plenty of fun water activities to enjoy. The spacious deck provided a comfortable spot to relax right at the Sandbar, and the snorkeling experience was incredible, with some of the best fish to see up close. Highly recommend!

This was my first time in Hawaii during this season, and I wanted to see whales at least once, so I participated in the tour. Boarding started at 8:15, and first, we took a commemorative photo by group. During the tour, the staff will ask if you'd like to purchase a photo ($26).

Before departure, we helped ourselves to pineapple banana bread and drinks (coffee, tea, water, and other beverages are available for a fee). While we were eating, the naturalist provided explanations about the whales (no explanations in Japanese).

Since it was a large boat, the rocking wasn't too bad, but if you're worried, it's advisable to take motion sickness medication. Shortly after departure, whales appeared, and there was a great cheer from everyone on board! The boat slowly approached the direction of the whales and stayed there for a while. It seems we couldn't get closer than 100 yards.

Although we couldn't see them jumping, we were able to see them spouting water and their pectoral fins and tails multiple times. The view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea was also lovely. We returned to Aloha Tower around 11:00.

The women's restroom had about 30 stalls, and there was also a wheelchair-accessible restroom. It seems there are no public restrooms at Aloha Tower, so it's better to take care of that on the boat.

I signed up without transportation and took THE BUS to the location. It took about 30 minutes on bus number 2 from Kuhio Avenue to downtown, and then about a 15-minute walk to Aloha Tower. On the way back, the bus to Ala Moana Center passes by Aloha Tower, so I enjoyed shopping and lunch right after the tour.

この時期のハワイは初めてで、行くなら一度は鯨を見てみたいと思い、参加しました。
8：15に乗船開始し、まずは、グループ毎に記念撮影をし、ツアーの途中で、スタッフの方が購入するか否かを声かけしてくれます。（＄26）
軽食は、出港前にセルフ形式でパイナップルバナナブレッドと飲み物（コーヒー・紅茶・水・その他の飲み物は有料）を取りに行き、食べている最中にナチュラリストから鯨に関する説明があります。（日本語の説明はなし。）
大型船なので、揺れはそれ程でもありませんが、心配な方は、酔い止めを。
出港後、すぐに鯨が現れ、船内は大歓声！船は、ゆっくり鯨がいる方向へ近づき、しばらく留まってくれます。100ヤード以内には近づくことはできないようです。
ジャンプする姿を見ることはできませんでしたが、潮を吹いたり、胸びれや尾ひれは何度も見ることができました。
海から眺めるワイキキの町並みとダイヤモンドヘッドも良かったです。
11時位にアロハタワーに帰港しました。
トイレは、女性用は、個室が約30弱程あり、車椅子対応のトイレもありました。
アロハタワーには、公衆トイレは無いようなので、船で済ませた方が良いと思います。
今回、送迎なしで申込み、現地まではTHE BUSで行きました。クヒオ通りから2番のバスでダウンタウンまで約30分、そこからアロハタワーまで徒歩で約15分程です。
帰りは、アラモアナセンター行きのバスがアロハタワーを通るため、ツアー参加後にそのままショッピングとランチも楽しみました。

Amazing place and nice people will definetly go back again

This is a plan that includes a large ship, light snacks (pineapple banana cake and coffee or tea), and a re-boarding guarantee in case you miss the experience.

Since it’s a large ship, the restrooms and space are excellent, and you can travel to the ship on a large bus equipped with restrooms, which made me feel secure even though I tend to have a sensitive stomach.

In mid-January, during the off-season and the whale watching season, we were able to encounter the whales in a relatively empty setting on our first trip! We chased a group of three whales and captured footage of a baby whale breaching.

We were able to see them up close. If I had to mention something, it would be that the area behind the Hyatt Regency had many tour buses, making it hard to identify which one was ours. Additionally, juices for kids are available for a fee, and there is no dedicated photographer, so you need to take pictures of the whales yourself. Overall, I was very satisfied!

大型船でいく、軽食(パイナップルバナナケーキとコーヒー紅茶)・見れなかった場合の再乗船保証付きのプランです。
大型船のためトイレもスペースもバッチリ、船までもトイレ付き大型バスで移動でき、お腹を壊しがちな自分でも安心でした。
シーズンオフの1月中旬、ホエールウォッチングのシーズンということで空いた状態で初回に遭遇できました!
3頭組を併走で追いかけ子クジラのブリーチングを撮影。
間近でしっかり見れました。
強いて挙げれば、ハイアットリージェンシー裏はツアーのバスが多くどれが自分のバスかわかりづらく、子供向けのジュースなどは有料、専属カメラマンなどはおらずクジラは自分で撮影する必要がありますが、全体的に満足できました!

Since almost everything is in English on-site, I couldn't understand the tour conductor's speech, but there was a Japanese video for the initial explanation, so it was fine. It's an experience that you can't have in Japan, so I definitely recommend it! We were a family of four (with preschool children), and we had a great time! The locals were very unique and kind, making it easy to enjoy ourselves!

現地ではほぼ英語なのでツアーコンダクターの話しは分かりませんが最初の説明は日本語のビデオがあるので大丈夫でした。
日本では出来ないような体験なので是非おすすめです！家族4人（子供は未就学児）でしたがとても楽しめました！現地の人はとてもユニーク親切で安心して楽しめます！

The activity itself was very enjoyable, but there was a waiting time of three hours on-site, which made it difficult to pass the time. I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't participate in another activity during this time, as it would have made for a more efficient experience.

アクティビティ自体は、とても楽しく満喫できましたが、現地での待ち時間が３時間もあり、時間をつぶすのに苦労しました。この間に別のアクティビティーに参加できれば、効率的に過ごせたのにちょっと残念した。

Good boat ride, I guess. Did not see any whales. I realize I can go back, but I'm already back on the mainland.If you want to do this but only have one week, schedule early so you can maybe get back on another ride later in your week. Nearby parking was $24 for three hours, also.

We had a blast at the sandbar! The boat ride there was fantastic with great music and a fun crew. Once there we got to hop on the Banana Boat w/ Captain Calvin and he really made sure we were comfortable with the speed (thumbs up for faster, shaka for same speed, and thumbs down to slow it up). In addition to that helped setup a ride back to the shuttle spot since my aunt had trouble walking that far. The staff there are the best!

We got lucky and went by some sea turtles while out there on the banana boat. They swam right beneath us!

There was also live music on the boat and it was sooo good. Great songs, great musicians and singers. Wow!

We also got to kayak around and tried the stand-up paddle board for the first time. It was amazing to be out in the ocean surrounded by the beauty of the water and green mountains. It's truly magical, and I hope it stays that way forever. We should all respect it and guard it.

This should be a "must do" when traveling to Oahu!

I had booked parasailing at 150m and jet skiing with my husband, but due to strong winds, parasailing was not possible. They informed us that we could switch to a banana boat or a bumper tube, so we chose the bumper tube, which I had actually wanted to try! As a result, they refunded us the difference for upgrading from parasailing at 90m to 150m.

The staff at the reception were Japanese, and some of the staff who explained the operation spoke Japanese as well! Everyone was very friendly and kind, and we had a great time 😊. I was surprised that operating the jet ski was quite difficult, but it was fun. My husband was unsure about the bumper tube at first, but he kept saying it was the best crazy experience! 🤣

Next time we go to Hawaii, I want to try parasailing and visit the restaurant recommended by the staff for mochiko chicken! Thank you very much! ✨

旦那とパラセーリング150m+ジェットスキーを予約してましたが、風の強さでパラセーリングができなくなりバナナボートorバンパチューブに切り替える事もできるとの事だったので実はやってみたかったバンパチューブに切り替えてもらえました！
なので金額はパラセーリング90m→150mにランクアップした差額分だけ返金してくれました！

受付のスタッフさんは日本の方で、操縦の説明等してくれるスタッフさんは日本語が話せる方もいました！皆さんすごくフレンドリーで優しくて楽しかったです😊
ジェットスキーの操縦は意外と難しくてびっくりしましたが楽しく、旦那はバンパチューブとは？という感じでしたがクレイジーさに最高！と何度も言ってました🤣

またハワイに行ったら次はパラセーリングとスタッフさんおすすめのモチコチキンのお店に寄りたいと思います！
ありがとうございました✨

I had always wanted to go whale watching, so when I finally came to Hawaii after five years, I quickly signed up for a tour. Since it’s a natural experience, I thought it would be lucky if I got to see a whale, but I also had the desire to actually encounter one. I spent two hours on deck searching for whales, but the result was just a brief glimpse of a back and a fluke... it was disappointing.

However, right after boarding, I was able to see a huge rainbow over the ocean, and I also got to see the view of Diamond Head that can only be seen from the sea, which was amazing. The banana bread was moist and delicious as well.

If I have the chance again, I would love to participate and hopefully see a whale breach next time.

一度はホエールウォッチングに行ってみたいと思っていたので､5年ぶりにハワイに来ることになり早速申し込みをしました。自然との闘いなのでクジラに出会えればラッキーと思いつつ､でもせっかくなら出会いたいという欲望もあって2時間は甲板でクジラを探しましたが､結果はほんの一瞬だけ背中と腹びれが見えただけ･･･残念でした。
でも乗船してすぐに海にかかる大きな虹を見ることが出来たり､海からしか見られないダイヤモンドヘッドの姿も見ることが出来て最高でした。
バナナブレッドもしっとりとして美味しかったです。
また機会があったら参加して、今度はクジラのジャブを見てみたいです。

Our pick up was punctual, directions were clear and concise. Our driver was friendly, kind, informative, and had a great sense of humor! We were given plenty of time to spend at the memorial on our own at our own pace. I would highly recommend this tour.

Had a wonderful time.Enjoyed every bit of the show would recommend it to everyone

You will laugh all night! This was a perfect balance on a historic evening with a light heartness to it!

Good food selection at the buffet, and the boat is big so it is not too choppy on the waters.

Doors off makes it feel like your flying! Was a great tour and worth the higher pricing.

Our agent got us these and was easier and we got to avoid the long line at the park!

We were huge fans of the show, so this was a dream to ride the exact model chopper!

The boat was large, I wish it was a bit more personal smaller tour, but nonetheless evening was filled with smiles!

Thew crew was so sweet to my kiddos, and the food was really good!

They do not guide you up to hike, but it was pretty self explanatory!

The ranch is so gorgeous, breathtaking! This duo was a wonderful day

I experienced parasailing, bumper tubing, and jet skiing. All of them were fun. The sea was beautiful, and it was the best experience.

パラセーリング、バンパーチューブ、ジェットスキーを体験しました。どれも楽しかったです。海も綺麗で最高の体験でした。
