All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

At the entrance, there were commemorative coins to choose from, which was fun! I didn't bring a towel since it would be extra luggage and I planned to buy one as a souvenir, but I was able to purchase it at the shop as planned, and I still love using the bath towel.

入り口に記念コインがあり数種類選べて楽しかったです♪
タオルが荷物になるのと記念に購入しようと持ち込みませんでしたが、予定通り売店で買えて、バスタオルは今も気に入って使っています。

I was very satisfied with the tour because I was able to swim with dolphins in the beautiful sea. However, I think it's better not to have overly high expectations for the Japanese guide, as they provide only minimal interpretation and assistance.

綺麗な海でイルカと泳ぐ事ができたので、ツアー自体は大満足です。但し、日本語ガイドさんは、最低限の通訳、お世話しかしないので、過度な期待はしない方が良いと思います。

I thought the male server was wonderful with his passionate service towards the store and his work. A few hours before my visit, I had eaten shaved ice, so I was quite full. I checked with a Japanese staff member if I could take my food home, and they wrapped it beautifully. The next day, I warmed it up at the hotel and enjoyed it deliciously.

テーブル担当の男性がお店や仕事への愛が溢れる接客で素晴らしいと思いました。来店数時間前にシェイブアイスを食べた為、お腹がいっぱいになってしまい持ち帰りできるか日本人スタッフの方に確認したところ綺麗に包んでいただき翌日ホテルで温めて美味しくいただきました。

I have to say this is a must , had such much fun. The views weee incredible. I’ll definitely bring going back to kualoa ranch

There were five groups including us.
There were no staff members who spoke Japanese, but they explained things using gestures and simple words, so it wasn't a problem.

The hardest part was seasickness...
I definitely recommend taking motion sickness medication for those who are worried!!
Once we took off, the scenery was amazing and it felt like a reset.
It was so much fun! I was very satisfied!!
I gave a tip of $40.

私たち含め5組でした️
日本語を話せるスタッフさんはいなかったのですが、ジェスチャーや簡単な単語で説明してくれたので問題なかったです

1番きつかったのは船酔いです、、
心配な方は絶対に酔い止め飲むことおすすめします！！
飛んだらめちゃめちゃ景色もよくリセットされました️
とってもたのしかったです！大満足！！
チップは40ドルお渡ししました

I made a reservation for a date without checking the tide levels, but it turned out to be just when the tide was coming in, and the water level at the sandbar was around my waist. Last time it was about ankle-deep, so I felt a bit disappointed and reduced my rating by one star.

You can check the tide levels at <https://www.usharbors.com/harbor/hawaii/mokuoloe-hi/tides/#monthly-tide-chart>. However, compared to the last time when the weather was mixed with rain, this time there were more sunny intervals, so I felt like I got a bit of a revenge on that front.

The tour I participated in last time had a lot of marine activities, but this time I was mainly looking forward to the BBQ hamburgers. The patties grilled on the BBQ set on the boat were delicious. As for activities, I enjoyed beach volleyball and snorkeling. I was able to choose not to wear a life jacket for snorkeling, which allowed me to enjoy skin diving (the last tour required a life jacket). I also encountered a lot of sea turtles.

A local staff member asked if my wife was a local, but at first, I didn’t understand what was being said, which was a bit amusing.

潮位を確認せずに行ける日程で予約しましたが、結果はちょうど潮が満ちてくる時間帯で、サンドバーでの水位は腰のあたりでした。前回は踝くらいだったので、残念な感じで星一つ減。
潮位は、<https://www.usharbors.com/harbor/hawaii/mokuoloe-hi/tides/#monthly-tide-chart> とかで調べられます。
しかし、前回の天気は雨混じりだったのに比べると今回は晴れ間が多かったので、そこはリベンジできたかな。
前回参加したツアーはマリンアクティビティが豊富でしたが、今回のツアーはBBQハンバーガー目当て。船上のBBQセットで焼かれたパテが美味いこと。
アクティビティとしては、ビーチバレーとシュノーケリングを楽しみました。シュノーケリングはライフジャケットを付けないのも選択できたので、私としてはスキンダイビングも出来て楽しめました(前回のツアーはライフジャケット必須だった)。ホヌにも沢山遭遇することが出来ましたし。
ロコのスタッフから、私の妻はロコなのかと訊かれたのですが、最初何を言われているのか解らなかったのは御愛嬌。

I participated with my 8-year-old and 6-year-old children. The guide was Japanese, and the entire trip was conducted in Japanese.

The activities included visiting the sandbar, observing sea turtles, and snorkeling, and we were very satisfied with the lunch, which was a charcoal-grilled hamburger.

By the way, alcohol is available for purchase, but soft drinks are free.

I was worried about whether my kids could snorkel since they are small, but they provided equipment for children, and there were no issues at all. The kids had an absolute blast.

One area for improvement would be to create a changing room. I wondered about the lack of a place to change on the way back. A few poorly mannered Japanese individuals were changing in the long line for the restroom stalls.

We had to ride the bus in wet swimsuits, and the air conditioning was too strong, making it cold. Since there’s no place to change, I think it’s a good idea to bring extra bath towels to cover up on the way back.

Other than that, it was fantastic.

8歳と6歳の子供と一緒に参加しました。
ガイドさんは日本人で、道中はオール日本語です。

サンドバー、ホヌ見学、シュノーケリングに加え、お昼ご飯は炭焼きハンバーグのバーガーで大満足のアクティビティでした。

ちなみにアルコールは有料ですが、ソフトドリンクは無料で頂けます。

子供達が小さいのでシュノーケリングが出来るか心配でしたが、子供用の装備も用意されており、全く問題ありませんでした。
子供達はめちゃくちゃ楽しんでいました。

一点改善して欲しいところは、更衣室を作って欲しいです。
帰りに着替えれないところはどうなのと思いました。
マナーの悪い日本人が数名、長蛇列のトイレ個室で着替えてました。

濡れた水着でバスに乗るのですが、エアコンが効き過ぎてて寒くなりました。
着替えれないので、帰りに体を覆えるようにバスタオルは多めに持参が良いと思います。

それ以外は最高でした。

It was a fish similar to a flatfish, so I wished we could have changed spots more often with the fish finder. I really think Japanese fishing boats are the best. It's perfect for sightseeing.

カワハギ的な魚だから魚探で見れてもっとポイント変えてほしかったです。やっぱ日本の釣り船が最強と思いました。観光には最高です。

Outstanding a great reminder why peace is the ultimate goal in life

It is not clearly stated in the notes, but at least one person in the participating group must drive. The buggy accommodates six people, but you cannot ride in a buggy driven by someone from another group. Additionally, although it is not mentioned in the instructions, you will get quite dirty as you drive for two hours through a bumpy jungle path with heavy dust. However, if you are accustomed to driving in Japan, driving the buggy is not too difficult, and there are filming spots related to Jurassic Park along the way, which made it a lot of fun!

注意事項に明記されておらず分かりづらいですが、参加するグループのうち誰か1人は必ず運転しなければなりません。バギーは6人乗りですが、他のグループの人が運転するバギーに相乗りするような案内はしてもらえません。それと、案内に記載はないですが、砂埃が激しく舞う中起伏の激しいジャングルの道を2時間駆け回るため、全身がかなり汚れます。とはいえ、日本での車の運転に慣れていればバギーの運転はそこまで難しくなく、途中にはジュラシック・パーク関連の撮影スポットもあり、大変楽しめました！

There were some language issues, but the driver was kind. Hanauma Bay was very beautiful and amazing. I want to go again.

若干言葉の問題はありますがドライバーさんも親切でした。ハナウマベイとても綺麗で最高でした。また、行きたいです。

I had always wanted to try parasailing, and I thought it would be amazing to experience it in Hawaii, so I decided to go for it and signed up. The breathtaking views from Waikiki to Diamond Head, along with the refreshing feeling and thrill, were incredible. I was a bit worried that the guide only spoke English, but they lightened the mood on the boat with jokes in Japanese, which made me feel at ease and I had a lot of fun. I'm really glad I participated. I splashed into the sea multiple times up to my chest!

Captain & Crew, thank you!!

一度体験してみたかったパラセーリング、ハワイで体験出来れば最高だと、思い切って申し込みました。
ワイキキの町並みからダイヤモンドヘッドまでの絶景と爽快感、スリルが楽しめます。
英語ガイドのみという点が少し不安でしたが、日本語を交えてのジョークで船の上を盛り上げてくれ安心でとても楽しく、参加して本当に良かったです。
胸元まで何回も海ポチャします！

Captain&Crew
thank you！！

Initially, I only reserved the shuttle, but since I was traveling alone, I joined the tour for peace of mind. It was great that they also took photos for us.

During lunchtime, I shared a sandwich with another solo participant, and we were able to try two different kinds, which made for a fun time. Thank you very much.

当初、シャトルのみを予約していましたが
一人旅なので安心の為にツアーに参加しました。
写真も撮ってくださったので良かったです。

ランチタイムも一人参加の方とご一緒し
サンドイッチをシェアして2種類食べることができ、楽しいひとときでした。
ありがとうございました。

Ok, ok. This was my first luau but still, in my opinion, it was the greatest luau you could attended. From start to finish, period! From the time you get picked up the host in the bus doesn’t shut up. I’m kidding. He is great. He entertains you with a comedian style performance to break the ice on your way to the Luau. Who doesn’t like to be entertained. This is better than sitting in a boring 15 minute/ half hour ride. lol. Then you get neckless beads, amazing. Make sure you’re as hungry as a lion cause there is a lot of FOOD. You will gain 10Lbs easy. Then the best awaits. Many different cultural warrior dances both male and female. But they save the best for last. The warrior fire dance. The begging slowly so you won’t poop your pants with so much fire. Talented warriors swinging fire, AMAZING. And if you are celebrating a b-day or anniversary… man you’re in for a treat. Oh did I mention the also take complimentary pictures . Keeps getting better. I’d tell you more but just book the show and see for yourself self.

It was ok for the most part. I just felt rushed from what supposed to be half of day ended up being a 1/4 of the day. I just wish hours were long didn’t really get to enjoy the island as family.

This is my second time! It has to be 150m. I could say I came to Hawaii just for this (laughs). Unfortunately this time, I missed the bus and tried to get there with Biki, but got caught up in the Hilton strike line, which made me quite late. Even so, I was able to join, and it was a huge help. By the way, I called on the way to let you know I was late, but I couldn't get through to voicemail... that was a disappointing point.

Everyone was already on the boat, so I jumped right in and we set off! Same crew as last time! I love them ♡ I knew the drill, so even though it was a bit hectic, I just enjoyed it!

This time, the wind picked up quite a bit while we were out, which added an unexpected thrill (laughs). Based on last time's lesson, I had my Insta360 GO 3s ready at my chest and captured everything perfectly! Of course, the crew also takes photos from the boat (for a fee, and you need to confirm in advance). Diamond Head, Waikiki, Ala Moana... the blue sea and sky are just as beautiful as ever! The view is amazing!! According to the crew, there was a lady who was on her fifth time. I plan to beat that record (laughs).

However, there were some who got seasick, so if you're sensitive, it might be a good idea to take some medicine. It doesn't rock that much, though. It's a short time, and it's so much fun that you don't really have time to feel the rocking, if that's the right way to put it? (laughs)

I definitely recommend it!

Dear Crew,
I told you that I remember the Captain, but that was not correct. Last time, the Captain was a younger and shorter guy. Of course, it was true that I remember you and I joined the tour to see you! Thank you again and see you soon!

2度目です！150m一択でしょ。
これをするためにハワイに来たと言っても過言では無いです（笑）
今回大変申し訳無いことに、バスに間に合わず、Bikiで迷いながら行こうとして、ヒルトンのストライキ行列に巻き込まれて、かなり遅刻
それでも乗せてもらえて、めちゃくちゃ助かりました。因みに行く途中で遅刻を知らせるために電話しましたが、留守電で繋がりませんでした…それは残念ポイント。

既に皆さんボートに乗り込んでいたので、すぐに飛び乗り出発！
前回と同じCrew！大好き♡
要領はわかっていたので、バタバタしても、楽しむのみ！

今回は、上がっている時にかなり風が強くなって、ある意味想定以上のスリルが楽しめました（笑）
前回の教訓を元に、insta360 GO 3sを胸元に仕込んで、バッチリ撮影しました！勿論、ボートからCrewも撮影してくれます（有料。事前に要否確認あり）
ダイアモンドヘッド、ワイキキ、アラモアナ…言わずもがな青い海と空！眺めも最高です！！
Crewによると５回目という猛者のマダムもいたそう。私もその記録を越えようと思います（笑）

ただ、船酔いされた方もいたので、弱い方はお薬を飲んでおいた方がいいのかも。そんなに揺れませんけどね。短時間ですし、楽しすぎて揺れを感じる暇が無い、が正しいかな？（笑）

間違いなくオススメです！

Dear Crew,
I told you that I remember the Captain, but it was not correct. Last time, Captain was a younger and shorter guy. Of course it was true that I remember you and I joined the tour to see you! Thank you again and see you soon!

The meeting place was within a hotel in Waikiki, which was very accessible. I joined thinking it would be nice to meet them, but I was incredibly moved to see multiple honu (sea turtles) right in front of me! After snorkeling, during the cruising, I was a bit worried because my family got seasick, but it felt really nice to sail while enjoying the view of the hotels in Waikiki and Diamond Head with the wind in our faces. Also, the captain, crew, and instructor were really cool.

集合場所がワイキキのホテルの中でアクセスがよかったです。
本当に会えたらいいなーぐらいに思って参加したのですが、何匹も、しかも目の前でホヌさん（ウミガメ）に会えて、大感動でした！
シュノーケリング後のクルージングでは、ちょっと家族が船酔いしちゃって心配でしたが、ワイキキのホテル群やダイヤモンドヘッドを見ながら、風を切って航行するのは本当に気持ちよかったです。
あと、キャプテンとクルー、インストラクターがめっちゃかっこよかったです。

My first experience in a Cessna. I was filled with anticipation as I headed to Oahu. However, the morning hotel pickup was canceled, so I ended up joining in the afternoon. Later, I learned from a Japanese man in his 50s who was driving us that the morning flights were canceled due to heavy fog, which made me feel lucky. This man had extensive knowledge about Hawaii, and during the 20-minute drive, we became quite familiar with the area. The airport waiting room was very clean, and there were plenty of welcoming snacks. I also encountered the cleanest restroom of my Hawaii trip there. The flight route was explained by the pilot, who seemed friendly and was also a Japanese man in his 50s. I took motion sickness medication an hour before the flight, and off we went. Onboard, the scenery was stunning, and the pilot provided a wealth of commentary over the tourist spots, which made for an exciting experience. I was worried about getting motion sickness, but it was a comfortable journey in the sky. The flight lasted about 70 minutes from takeoff to landing. We circled over the Pearl Harbor Arizona Memorial about nine times while waiting for landing clearance, which was also fun. The landing was very smooth, with less vibration than my return flight on Delta Airlines.

I would definitely use this service again if I have the opportunity!

初めてのセスナ体験。期待に胸を膨らませオアフへ。ところが朝いちホテルピックアップが不可になり午後に参加することに。後で聞いたらその日の午前は霧が深くフライトできなかったと、送迎の50代と思われる日本人男性から聞きラッキーな気分。この男性のハワイの知識が豊富で20分程のドライブでかなりハワイ通になった私たち。空港の待合室はとても綺麗でおもてなしの菓子も沢山あり、ハワイ旅行中で一番綺麗なトイレに出会ったのもこちら。フライトルート説明が機長からあり分かりやすく人柄良さそうなこちらも50代と思われる日本人男性。酔い止めを1時間前に飲み、いざフライト。機上にて景色の素晴らしさ、観光地の上での盛り沢山の機長の解説、撮影等で盛り上がり、心配していた酔いもなく快適な空の旅。離陸から着陸まで約70分。着陸許可が出るまで真珠湾アリゾナ記念館上を9回ほど旋回し、それもまた楽しい。着陸もとても上手で帰路のデルタ航空より振動がなく笑。
また機会あれば是非利用します！

Private table is not Private at all, you have about 2ft at the most between tables. Service was slow we were told by the server he was covering our area due to another employee not showing up. It took a while to get drinks or water refilled. They don't have condiments available for your meal. It was very warm during dinner and the sun was blinding. Take sunglasses. The top deck was a great area to get some air. There was a large amount of guest and I thought they do a pretty good job handling the amount of people on board but it may be too many for the guest to have a truly great experience

I was picked up from the hotel, and it took about an hour to get to the port, but being on the boat was amazing! The weather was bad, so we couldn't see the sandbar, but the delicious hamburgers and the abundance of sea turtles and tropical fish were so incredible that my child hesitated to swim. ✨ The tour guides were friendly, attentive, and all very nice. It was my first trip to Hawaii, and I'm glad we booked the tour. I hope we can see the sandbar next time!

ホテルに迎えに来てもらって港までの1時間かかったけど、船の上は最高でした！天気が悪くサンドバー見れなかったけど、美味しいハンバーガーとたくさんのウミガメ、熱帯魚がいっぱいすぎて子供が泳ぐのを躊躇してしまったほど海は素晴らしかったです✨
ツアーガイドの人も気さくで、よく気が付く、良い方ばかりでした
初めてのハワイ旅行だったのですがツアーを組んでよかったねです
次回はサンドバーが見れますように！

The bus pickup time is early.
Once we arrived, we had plenty of time.
The exploration tour allowed us to enjoy unpaved roads.
The guide was kind and made time for us to get out of the car and take photos.
While Honolulu was mainly about the ocean, we also enjoyed the mountains, making it a great experience.

バス送迎の集合時間は早めです。
着いてからは時間に余裕がありました。
探検ツアーは未舗装路が楽しめます。
車を降りて写真撮影タイムを作ってくれたりと、
ガイドさんが親切でした。
ホノルルは海メインでしたが、山も楽しめてよい体験になりました。

This experience was amazing! The waterfall swim was the perfect way to begin the adventure. And then the luau itself was incredible. Much love and respect for the awesome drummers, dancers, fire spinners, and the kindness shown by all. Highly recommend!

I made a last-minute reservation around 3:30 PM for the final flight at 5 PM. Despite the short notice, the staff were very kind and accommodating. There were four groups participating, and each group had about a 10-minute flight. Since it was in the evening, the view of the sunset and Waikiki was absolutely amazing!

当日の15時半ぐらいに急遽でしたが、最終17時に申し込みました。
急にも関わらずスタッフのみなさんは親切に対応してくれました。
4組での参加でしたが、1組だいたい10分ぐらいの飛行です。
夕方ということもあり、夕日とワイキキが一望でき最高でした!

We experienced this on the day we arrived in Hawaii.

We participated in a tour that lasted about two and a half hours, and we were the only Japanese people there. We took a boat to the location of the submarine, and on the way, we encountered turtles and dolphins.

We moved to the submarine and began our dive. The underwater scenery was very beautiful and had high visibility, with many sunken ships and planes. The interior was cool and comfortable. There were also bags available on the submarine for anyone who felt unwell.

All the explanations were in English, but I didn't think it was very necessary.

We smoothly handed our Veltra voucher to the receptionist.

ハワイ到着日に体験しました。

2時間半程のツアーに参加し日本人は私達だけでした。
潜水艦の場所まで船で行き、そこまで行くのに亀やイルカに出会うことが出来ました。

潜水艦に移動し、潜水。
海の中はとても綺麗で透明度が高く、沈没船・飛行機など沢山沈んでいました。
室内は涼しく快適でした。
気分が悪くなった人用に袋も潜水艦には完備してありました。

全て英語の説明でしたが、あまり必要ではなかったと思います。

ベルトラのバウチャーを持って受付の人にお渡しスムーズに行けました。

This was an amazing adventure for us. Something we would absolutely do again. I would recommend this company over and over again. I love the fact they are natives and a small family owed business . Always support local when I can, over big corporate companies. In doing my research, there is no difference between cage or cage less. The water was beautiful, clear and relatively calm.

I wanted to try surfing in Hawaii, so I participated in this famous school. There were about 10 people in total, all beginners, and we were the only Japanese, but there happened to be an instructor who spoke Japanese, so there were no problems at all.

I was nervous since it was my first challenge, but the instructor encouraged me, and I was able to stand up from the first try! I hardly took any breaks, so towards the end, I was able to ride the waves multiple times in quick succession. I'm not sure if I can ride the waves on my own yet, but I had a memorable and fun experience!

One thing to note is that it takes time to fill out the consent form, so you need to arrive 30 minutes before your reservation time (as mentioned on the voucher).

ハワイでサーフィンがしてみたかったので、有名なこちらのスクールに参加してみました。
参加した回は全部で10人くらい、全員初心者、日本人は私たちだけでしたが、日本語を話せるインストラクターさんが（たまたま？）いたので、全く問題ありませんでした。
初めての挑戦で緊張しましたが、インストラクターさんが押してくれたので1回目から立つことができました！私はほとんど休憩しなかったので、最後の方は短いスパンで何度も波に乗ることができました。
一人で波に乗れるようになったかというと怪しいですが、思い出に残る楽しい体験ができました！

注意点は、同意書の記入などに時間がかかるので、予約時間の30分前に到着しておく必要があることです（バウチャーに書いてあります）。

Best time on island when we are here. Highly recommended. The crew is friendly and safety is readily apparent. Shy is a great captain and knows her stuff! The hospitality and food are above reproach. Value throughout the trip and worth every bit. Nothing short of spectacular and the opportunity to see Sea Turtles, fish of different species, and Rays. Best value we have found near the North Shore.

I had an amazing time.
We experienced parasailing as a family of four. We went up high enough to overlook Diamond Head.
The ocean was blue, and we could see Hawaii from above. I was worried because I'm not good with thrill rides, but it was not scary at all and was truly the best fun.
The captain's jokes were really entertaining, and I was laughing the whole time!
Thank you very much.

すごく楽しかったです。
パラセーリング家族4人で体験しました。ダイアモンドヘッドを見下ろす位の高さまで上がります。
海も青くてハワイが上から見れます。絶叫系が苦手で心配していましたが、まったく怖くなくて本当に最高に楽しかったです
キャプテンのジョークもすごく楽しくてずっと笑っていました！
ありがとうございました。

It would be nice if the back ground music was not exist. Since the sailing time only with soft wave sound, would be my best prefered environment.

I've been to Hawaii more than ten times, but I had never been to Kualoa Ranch until now. This time, we decided to give it a try. It was more fun than I expected. There were various activities, and there was a guide who spoke Japanese, which made it stress-free.

Next time, we decided to try horseback riding, and everyone was very excited about it. Thank you!

ハワイには10回以上行ってますが，クアロアランチには縁がなく今まで一回も行った事がなく、
今回取り敢えず行ってみようということになりました。
期待以上の楽しさでした。
いろんなアクティビティもあり，ガイドには日本語がわかる方もおり，ストレスフリーでした。

今度は，乗馬をしてみようということになり，とても盛り上がりました。
ありがとうございました。
