All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

The buggy activity was thrilling, and the course was filled with breathtaking spots in both the mountains and the sea, making it absolutely fantastic. With a solid two hours of riding, I felt very satisfied.

When I checked in on-site, I found that it was fine to arrive at the buggy check-in location 15 minutes before. Since there was some time before we started, I was able to play on the beach across the road, dipping my feet in the water and building sandcastles.

The return bus also arrived about 10 minutes early, and it felt like the roll call was starting.

バギーのアクティビティ感はスリルがあり、周るコースが山も海も絶景スポットがいっぱいで最高でした。2時間みっちり周るので、かなり満足感はあります。
現地で確認すると、チェックインは15分前にバギーのチェックイン場所に行けばオッケーでした。始まるまで時間があったので、道路を挟んで向かいのビーチで足をつけたり砂山を作ったりして遊べました。
帰りのバスも10分前くらいにバスがきて点呼が始まる感じでした。

Even though I don't understand English, the staff explained everything clearly with gestures. My younger child and I are a bit timid, so it felt like half fun and half scary. My wife and older child seemed to have a great time. There were about 10 customers during my experience, and each session lasted around 10 minutes, with two people experiencing it at a time. So we were on the boat for about an hour, and my family felt a little queasy.

英語がわからかなくても、スタッフの方がジェスチャーを混じえてしっかり説明してくれました。私と下の子は怖がりなので、楽しい半分怖さ半分と言う感じでした。妻と上の子はめちゃくちゃ楽しかったようです。私のときは10人のお客さんがいて、1回の体験がだいたい10分くらいで、2人ずつ順番に体験します。なので1時間くらいはボートに揺られ、うちの家族はみんな少し気持ち悪いかなくらいでした。

November in Hawaii is the rainy season, and my reservation was canceled just before the start date. I received an email saying to call the English-only reception, so if the weather looks suspicious, it's better to change your reservation on the website in advance. The day after I rescheduled, I flew through a rainy sky and saw a rainbow at my feet. I didn't have the luxury to take leisurely photos, but my feelings were: scary! Beautiful! Amazing! Quiet!

Luggage is stored in the space under the seat on the boat. A few times, I was splashed up to my waist or chest. If your hotel is nearby, you can return there afterward, but if it's far, there aren't many places to change (maybe just a public restroom on the beach after a bit of walking), so be careful about getting wet.

11月のハワイは雨季なのもあら予約日は開始直前で開催中止になりました。
英語のみの受付に電話する様にメールが来るので、天気が怪しい場合は先にサイトから予約変更するといいです。
振り替えた翌日はお天気雨の中飛んで、足元に虹が見えました。
ノンビリ写真を撮ってる余裕なんて無かったですが、怖い！綺麗！スゴい！静か！という感想です。

荷物は船の座席下のスペースに置いて飛びます。
海面には何度か腰下〜胸元くらいまでは落とされビシャビシャになります。
ホテルが近いなら終わった後にホテルに戻ればいいですが、ホテルが遠いと着替える場所とかはないので(あってもしばらく歩いたビーチの公衆トイレくらい)濡れたままでどうしよう…となるので気を付けてください。

My family has been in Hawaii for a week, and one of the last things we had to do was take a boat tour to Kaneohe sandbar. It came very highly recommended to us, so I found this tour and booked it! Mannnnn, this was THE SINGLE BEST thing we did all week. The boat crew was amazing. Captain Calvin was stellar, along with the whole entire crew. We were so impressed with how much fun we had! The weather was perfect for snorkeling, the kids had the best time being whipped around the ocean on the banana boat, the food was good, the music was amazing! Everything was just perfect. I didn’t want to get off the boat. Cannot lie, the Hawaiian people are the best people. Their kindness is unmatched. We had a great time. Thank you to everyone who made our boating experience amazing.

Since I started going to Hawaii, this must be my seventh or eighth time experiencing the sandbar, and the staff provided excellent safety management and support. I am truly grateful. Thank you very much.

ハワイに行き始めてから、何度目になるでしょうか、サンドバーも７～８回くらい体験しておりますが、スタッフの方々が安全管理等素晴らしい対応をして頂きました。
本当に、感謝いたします。ありがとうございました。

Very professional and sweet greeter met us with beautiful flowers. Well worth the money! Thx!

Dan and Cheiko make everyone very safe and comfortable especially for beginners. Easy to follow them and they are nice and patient. If you are the first time snorkeling, highly recommend to take this tour! Worth it!

Driving the buggy was fun, and it was great to visit the filming locations of Jurassic World. The two guides were very good and took a lot of photos for us. Since the dust is quite intense, it's better to wear the glasses they provide for rent.

バギーの運転が楽しく、ジュラシックワールドの撮影現場などに行けてことが良かったです。ガイドの2人がとても良くて写真をたくさん撮ってくれました。
砂埃がすごいのでレンタルしてくれる眼鏡をつけたほうがいいです。

Tour bus was easy to find at Hilo airport, driver friendly and very knowledgeable but hard to understand over the speakers. Lunch and water was provided along with a fruit snack. Tour bus on time from site to site and dropped us off at Blue Hawaiian Helicopters for an excellent ride with David. We had plenty of time to walk over to the airport terminal for our flight back to Honolulu.

This is such an awesome trip and with the perfect amount of time to still do other things back on the island. The trip to the sandbar and back was its own experience in itself with the donuts, juice and live music. That live music was AMAZING, they are so talented and sing so well. I can’t wait to come back again and bring my kids!

We had a great time. The MC was awesome, very fun. All the dancer were really good. Very entertaining for the entire family!

Driving a four-wheeler while feeling the majestic nature of Hawaii and visiting movie filming locations was great! I love being active, so it was perfect. The staff also took photos for us. My movie-loving partner seemed to really enjoy it.

ハワイの雄大な自然を感じながら四輪バギーの運転をして映画のロケ地を周ります！
アクティブ好きだったので良かったです。
またスタッフさんが写真を撮ってくれました。映画好きの彼はかなり楽しめたようです。

The dolphins are amazing and they do as they want . We will definitely recommend dolphin quest To everyone.

We participated as a couple.
We've been to Hawaii several times, but this was our first time signing up for this activity.
It was really fun! It was a unique experience that you can only have in Hawaii. The view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the ocean, and the scenery from above was amazing.
There were only two groups, including us, and since the ride was just under 40 minutes, we didn't feel too seasick. If there had been more groups, we might have felt nauseous.
We stayed at a hotel with an ocean view, so even after the experience, we enjoyed seeing from our balcony, "Oh, they're parasailing! That's the one we did!" every time we looked out.

夫婦2人で参加しました。
何回かハワイに行ってますが、初めて申し込みました。
結果とても楽しかったです！ハワイならではの貴重な経験ですね。海側から見るワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッド、空から見渡す景色は最高でした。
私たち含めて2組のみで、乗船時間も40分弱くらいだったため、そこまで船酔いはありませんでした。組数が多くてもっと乗っていたら酔ったかもしれませんが。
海が正面に見えるホテルに泊まっていたので、ベランダから「あ、パラセーリングしてる！あれ私たちが飛んだやつ！」って終わったあとの日々もなんか見るたびに楽しめましたね。

I was guided by a Japanese guide (Chieko and Dan) and had a one-on-one snorkeling experience, where I was able to dive for the first time for an hour. I also saw a turtle.

日本人ガイド(チエコさんダンちゃん)さんに案内されて、マンツーマンでシュノケリングが出来て、1時間も初めて潜れました。亀も見れました。

This was probably one of my favorite activities that I’ve ever done in all of my visits to Oahu. On the short boat ride over to the sandbar we were treated to live music, drinks, sandwiches and an explanation of what we would be doing for the day.
We started by stand-up paddle boarding, then as we were relaxing and floating we saw a turtle cruise by the area. The captain asked if we would like to see some turtles. Of course we said yes, and he took our small group out to the area where turtles are known to be. What an amazing experience! There were probably more than 10! After that we were lucky enough to have Captain Calvin tell us about this sacred place. He grew up close by.
Every single crew member was kind,helpful and genuinely interested in everyone having a good time. They made sure to explain each activity. They provided snorkel gear, stand-up paddle boards, and kayaks. I would say that this is great for couples, families, pretty much anybody.. There was a really cool floating dock with seating and an area with a volleyball net.
Some people had added banana boat rides and tube rides. I think it’s really cool to be able to add extras if you want them. The people who did it looked like they were having a lot of fun!
On our next trip to Oahu, we will definitely come back.

I participated in the first reservation of the day. I was a bit nervous before it started, but once I took off, it was fun, beautiful, and felt amazing—just the best! I was a bit concerned that the color of the sea was different from what I expected and that I could only see Diamond Head at the very end, but I thought it was understandable since it depends on the time of day, wind direction, and weather. I believe I can see new scenery every time, so I would love to do it again if I have the chance. Lastly, I found the time on the boat to be scarier than flying in the air... The boat moves as if it's bouncing over the waves, so I think it's better to be prepared for that!

　朝一番の予約で参加しました。
　始まる前は少し緊張しましたが、いざ飛んでみれば、楽しくてキレイで気持ちよくて、最高でした！
　海の色が思っていた色と違ったこと、ダイヤモンドヘッドが終わり間際にしか見られなかったこと、などが気になりましたが、参加する時間帯やその日の風向き、天気に左右されるから、仕方ないかなと思いました。
　毎回新しい景色が見られると思うので、機会があればまたやりたいです。
　最後に、空を飛ぶ間よりも、船に乗ってる時間の方が、私には怖かったです…。船が、波の上を跳ねるように進むので、覚悟して参加した方がいいと思います！

It was amazing. Seeing Waikiki from the sky is exceptional. I made the reservation the day before, but the process went smoothly. The meeting point is near the Prince Hotel.

Be aware that you'll need to pay 1 dollar at check-in. Once a few groups gather, we set sail. The boat can sway quite a bit, so be cautious. You can store your belongings in the boat's shelves, but it's recommended to bring only the essentials.

Now, up into the sky. I tried taking photos with a transparent phone case that hangs around my neck. There were some brave souls flying while holding their smartphones directly in their hands.

You can take plenty of pictures in the air, but don't forget to imprint the breathtaking views in your memory as well. In the end, we dove into the sea to finish. I was very satisfied. You can also request photo shooting for 40 dollars.

最高でした。空から見るワイキキは格別です。
予約は前日でしたが、すんなりと手続き完了。集合場所はプリンスホテルの近くです。
受付時に1ドルいるので要注意。
何組か集まれば出港です。船は結構揺れるのでご注意を。
荷物は船の棚に入れられますが、最小限がお勧めです。
いぞ、空へ。私は首からかける透明のスマホケースで撮影を試みました。スマホをそのまま手に持って飛ぶツワモノもいました。
空中では十分撮影できます。ただ自分の目に絶景を焼き付けることもお忘れなく。
最後は海にダイブして終了。大満足でした。
40ドルで写真撮影もお願いできます。

The wind was a bit strong, and there were some waves, but it was less rocky than I expected. The crew was also very kind and made me feel safe, allowing me to enjoy the experience.

少し風が強く､波もあったのですが思ったよりも揺れも少なく､クルーも親切に対応してくれて安心して楽しめました。

We all had the best fun! Would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Oahu.
Our group leaders - Jaryn and Sheldon - shared wonderful cultural stories and history with a great sense of fun. Great for all ages - our group was aged between 15-79 and everyone rated it their most fun activity in Hawaii! Thanks Kualoa Ranch!

It was amazing up to 150 meters above ground.
I had a very enjoyable time while looking at Diamond Head.
If you ask the staff for photos, it costs $40, and you can get an SD card.

150メートル上空まで最高でした。
ダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めながら、とても楽しい時間でした。
写真もスタッフにお願いすると40💲て、SDカードもらえます。

It's very convenient since transportation is included. Using CHIEKO's fins as a marker, it felt very safe and comfortable. I was quite impressed to see turtles coming up to the surface for air several times. We were all thrilled to see turtles in a different location as well. Of course, there were plenty of fish too. Since both my husband and I are 65 years old, we would love to go again if we have the chance. Thank you, CHIEKO!

送迎付きですのでとにかく便利です。CHIEKOさんの足ひれを目印にとても安全でとても気持ちがよく、亀が呼吸のために水面に顔を出すしぐさを数回見られかなり感激しました。また違う場所で亀を見られて参加者皆またまた感激。もちろん魚もたくさんいました。夫婦共に65歳なので機会があればまた行きたいと思っています。CHIEKOさんに感謝です。

The sunset and night view are beautiful.
The service was good, and the meat was delicious.
I paid for a window seat guarantee, but it felt like I wasted my money since only the window seats were used.
The price was high, so my expectations were great, but there was no excitement that matched the cost.
Everyone was unsure whether to tip or not.
If a tip is necessary, it should be stated in advance; otherwise, it's unfortunate for the serving crew.

夕日と夜景は綺麗です。
サービスも良く、お肉は美味しかった。
窓側確約料金を払ったが、実際は窓側しか使用されておらず、無駄なお金を払ってしまった気分になった。
料金が高いので期待が大きかったが、料金に見合った感動はない。
チップを払うのか否か皆が迷っていた。
チップが必要なら事前に記載しないと、サーブする船員の方々がかわいそうだ。

I'm glad I participated as I was able to feel the nature of Hawaii up close. The driver and guide shared various stories during the drive and on the way to the waterfall, which was enjoyable. The view from Tantalus Lookout and the lunch sandwiches were also excellent. I also stopped by the office and purchased Kona coffee as a souvenir, which received great reviews.

間近にハワイの自然を感じることができて参加して良かったです。
車中でも滝までの道中でもドライバーさん、ガイドさんが色々お話してくださり楽しかったです。タンタラスの丘からの眺望もランチのサンドイッチも最高でした。
また立ち寄ったオフィスで、お土産にコナコーヒーを購入しましたが大変好評でした。

The weather was great, the staff were amazing, and the conditions for both the sea and the boat were perfect.
Seeing the Diamond Head and the city of Waikiki from offshore was also a delight.
I have added another wonderful memory to my collection.
Next time, I want to try a different time slot.
I recommend it to anyone with a little free time.
BIG MAHARO

お天気良好スタッフさん最高海も船もコンディション申し分無し

何をとってもいい思い出がひとつ追加されました
今度は違う時間帯でも乗ってみたい
少しの空き時間のある方にお勧めします
BIG MAHARO

I visited during the first half of my trip. Since it was about war, it wasn't exactly fun, but I reaffirmed the importance of being present in that space to learn and feel. Hawaii is like a paradise, but I also felt it is a place where, as a Japanese person, I need to confront history. Alex, a Japanese guide, taught us various things. There were other Japanese people as well, so I think they adjust their responses depending on the situation. Everyone was kind and approached us warmly.

I also learned about the local people's and Americans' perspectives on Japan, as well as information about the USS Arizona.

The most challenging part was figuring out how to get there, so I’ll note that down. We took the bus from Waikiki to Pearl Harbor, which took just over an hour. Ideally, a taxi would be quicker, but this way, we could enjoy the local atmosphere at a leisurely pace. Once we arrived at Pearl Harbor by bus, we headed straight towards the sea. After checking our bags, we were allowed in. I brought a small pouch, but it wasn't allowed. Only items smaller than the wallet at the entrance can be brought in. There is no cost here.

After passing through the gate and heading right, a shuttle bus was waiting. It stops at the USS Missouri and the aircraft viewing area in order, taking about 10 minutes. We got off at the Missouri. We walked towards the battleship. At the lower entrance, we showed our printed voucher barcode to get in. Once on the deck of the battleship, they asked for our tour guide preferences, and when I requested Japanese, Alex came out to assist us. At that time, there were three groups, including us, totaling five people together.

He explained for a while, and then we explored the battleship on our own. This took about two hours in total. It was great that the bus fare was only three dollars, but the round trip took too long, so we took an Uber back.

I actually wanted to spend more time there, but we ran out of time before closing. I hope to visit the Arizona Memorial and the aircraft viewing area next time.

旅の前半に行きました。戦争のことなので楽しい、というのとはまた違いますが、その場に身を置いて学び感じることの大切さを再認識しました。ハワイは楽園のような場所ですが、日本人として歴史と向き合う必要がある場所であるとも思いました。日本のガイドのアレックスさんが、色々教えてくれます。他の日本の方もいらしたので、その時によって対応してくださるのだと思います。どの方も親切に声をかけてくださいます。
現地民やアメリカ人の日本への所感やアリゾナ戦艦のことなども教えていただきました。

一番難しかったのは行き方についてだったので書いておきます。
当方は、ザバスでワイキキからパールハーバーへ行きました。一時間ちょっとかかりました。
本当は時短にはタクシーが良いのですが、これはこれで現地の雰囲気をゆっくり味わえてよかったです。
ザバスでパールハーバーについたらまっすぐ海の方へすすみます。荷物を預けたら、通してくれます。小さいポーチを持って行きましたが、ダメでした。入り口にあるお財布と比べて小さいものしか持ち込めません。
ここではお金はかかりません。
門を通過して右へ進むとシャトルバスが待機していました。
そこから10分くらい、まずミズーリ戦艦そして航空機見学できる場所に順に停まります。私たちはミズーリの方でおりました。
戦艦目指して歩きます。
下の入り口で印刷したバウチャーバーコードを提示すると入れてくれます。
戦艦のデッキに上がるとツアーガイドの希望を聞いてくれて、日本語をお願いするとアレックスさんが出てきてくれました。この時間帯は私たちいれて3組、5名が一緒でした。
しばらく説明をしてくださり、戦艦内は自分たちで見学するスタイルです。これ全部で二時間くらいはかかってしましました。
ザバスは、三ドルで行けたのも良かったですが流石に往復バスは時間が勿体無いので、かえりはウーバーで帰りました。

本当は時間をもっととりたかったのですが、閉館時間になってしまい叶わず。また次回アリゾナ記念館や航空機見学にも行きたいです。

I took motion sickness medication based on other people's reviews and participated. At first, the speed of the boat was quite fast, and it felt like I was on a roller coaster, so I wasn't worried about getting seasick. The parasailing was at a high altitude, but I didn't feel scared at all, and I could see many tall buildings, which was very pleasant. My elderly mother had no issues and said she would like to participate again. A foreign couple in their 70s who were on the same boat mentioned it was their third time, so it seems there are many repeat customers!

他の方の口コミも参考にして、酔い止めを内服して参加しました。
最初かなり船のスピードが速く、ジェットコースターに乗っているような気分だったので
酔うかもしれないと心配になることはありませんでした。
パラセーリングは高い位置でしたが、全然怖さも感じず、高いビルもたくさん見えて
とても気持ちよかったです。
高齢の母も問題なく、また参加したいと言ってました。
同じ船に乗っていた70歳代の外国人夫婦は3回目とのことで、リピーターが多そうです！

Our tour guides Jess and Ivan were knowledgeable and a lot of fun. We were on the 2 hour UTV Raptor Tour and had a great time. Highly recommend when on Oahu.

I made a reservation around 8 o'clock, but I think as long as you have your tickets, it shouldn't be a problem if you don't worry too much about the time. Since there is traffic from Waikiki in the morning, I recommend taking it easy.

８時ぐらいからの予約で行きましたがチケットさえ買ってあればそんなに時間気にせず行っても問題無さそうだと思います
朝はワイキキから渋滞するのでのんびり行く事をオススメします

I participated in snorkeling for the first time with my friends. Thanks to Chieko-sensei's kind instruction, I was able to swim very happily. I saw a lot of fish as well. I want to do it again!

初めてのシュノーケリングを友達と参加しました。ちえこ先生が優しく教えてくれたおかげで、とても楽しく泳ぐことができました。たくさんお魚も見れました。またやりたいです
