All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

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。

I ordered a $150 course. The flavors of the meat and pasta were excellent, and it was very delicious. I also ordered a bottle of sparkling wine for about $80. The price of the meal included the tip, which was reassuring given the current weak yen. It seems to be a very popular restaurant, as it was fully booked. I'm glad I made the reservation through Veltra. There was also a Japanese staff member at the restaurant who provided detailed explanations. This is a restaurant I would like to visit again.

150ドルのコースを注文しました。肉やパスタの味が最高で、とても美味しかったです。80ドルくらいのスパークリングワインのボトルを注文しました。料理はチップ代が込みで、円安のいまは安心でした。とても人気店のようで、満席でした。予約も兼ねて、ベルトラで申し込んで良かったです。レストランのスタッフさんも日本人がいて、説明も詳しくしてくれました。またリピートしたいレストランです

My wife and I were on our honeymoon and came across the Kualoa ranch tour while searching for activities to do. We were not disappointed. We just did the Kaneohe sandbar boat tour and drove over after. As soon as we arrived you come to a well built facility that was easy to navigate and had everything from horse riding tours. Atvs. E bikes. Utvs. We checked it at the visitor center and it was quick and streamlined. We had time to get food and the açaí bowl was delicious. Once we got to the tub check in the guides were welcoming, friendly, funny and very informative. Once we started it was a blast. We got to learn about the ranch. The different mountains. The stories connected with the island and the ranch. And we got to see all the sites where they filmed movies like Jurassic park. Jurassic world. Kong and much more. It was such a great experience. 100% recommend this activity for anyone visiting Oahu.

A place where I played a lot as a child. I wondered if it would still be fun as an adult, and it seems it was! The attractions haven't changed much, but it was disappointing that the lazy river wasn't operating.

子供の時にたくさん遊んだ場所
大人になってもどうかな、と思ったらやはり楽しかったみたいです！
アトラクションもそんな変わりなく、ただ、流れるプールがやってなくて残念だったそうです

You can speed through the magnificent nature on a buggy. You can feel the mystical power of the wind blowing from the sea to the mountains. While driving, you will take breaks at scenic spots and movie filming locations. Helmets, goggles, and snoods will be provided. The buggies get quite dirty from the dust, and since the movement also kicks up a lot of dust, it's best to wear casual clothing. If you avoid getting too close to the bushes along the road, shorts should be fine. Drivers will need to wear shoes.

雄大な自然の中をバギーで駆け抜けます
海から山に吹き抜ける風を受けて神秘的なパワーを感じられます
絶景スポットや映画ロケ地でところどころ休憩しながら運転してゆきます
ヘルメットとゴーグル、スヌードが渡されます
バギーは砂埃で結構汚れてます、移動も砂埃がひどいので、ラフな服装がよいです
バギーで道脇のブッシュなどに近づかなければ短パンでも大丈夫でしょう
運転者は靴を履かないとダメでしょう

The explanations were all in English and very fast. I couldn't understand anything at all. It would have been nice to have at least a Japanese instruction manual. Also, even if the distance was short, it was disappointing to just pass by places where other tour groups stopped.

説明が全て英語でしかも早い。全然わかりませんでした。せめて日本語の説明書があったら良かったのですが。また距離は短くても良いので他のツアーグループが立ち寄っているところを素通りするのは残念だった。

The weather was nice, and it's no wonder so many people participated. The guide was very happy! The cruise was amazing. I had a hearty lunch as well. I will continue to enjoy Hawaii from tomorrow.

お天気が良く、多くの方が参加されるだけのことは、あります。ガイドのお兄さんがとてもHAPPY
‼️クルーズ最高でした。　ランチもガッツリ頂きました。あすからもハワイを楽しみます。

The buggy tour is incredibly fun as you can race through nature! The guide speaks English, but there are also Japanese staff, so I felt comfortable participating. Riding the buggy through the magnificent nature felt amazing. The scenery is just too beautiful. I think you should definitely join. However, be prepared for your clothes, face, and bag to get muddy. Expect to get quite dirty! Your face will be covered in sand, but you'll encounter sights that are worth it!

バギーでのツアーは自然の中を駆けめぐれるので、最高に楽しいです！
英語でのガイドですが、日本人スタッフもいてるので安心して参加できました。壮大な自然のなかバギーで駆け巡る事はとても気持ちが良かったです。景色が綺麗すぎます。参加するべきだと思います。
ただ、服、顔、鞄すべてが泥んこになります。
相当な汚れを覚悟して参加してください！
顔が砂まみれになるけど、それ以上の光景に出会えます！

I received reminder emails as needed, which provided reassurance that my reservation was confirmed. Although I was 25 minutes late this time, they waited until the last minute. While being late is not ideal, their flexible response increased my trust in them.
We participated as a group of five, totaling ten people, and the activity took about an hour. Each group had a ride of about ten minutes. Due to significant swaying, those who are prone to motion sickness should definitely take anti-nausea medication.
It was certainly fun, and I can also appreciate the safety measures, including life jackets and support for two people.
Photos are $40. They asked if I wanted one, but there was no hard selling. The minimum tip was understood to be $20, and all five groups gave $20.

リマインドのメールが適宜届きます。ちゃんと予約が入っているという安心感にも繋がりました。今回25分遅刻をしてしまいましたが、ギリギリまで待ってくれました。遅れるのはダメですが、こういった臨機応変な対応も信頼度に繋がりました。
5組10名で参加し、1時間くらいの所要時間です。1組10分くらいのライドでした。横揺れがすごいため、苦手な方は酔い止め必須です。
楽しかったことはもちろんですが、救命胴衣や2名サポートを含め安全性も評価できます。
写真は40ドル。いるか聞かれて、無理な販売はありません。チップは20ドルが最低価格という先方の認識でした。5組とも、20ドルを渡しています。

I was picked up in front of the Twin Fin Hotel and participated in the tour. The pickup was smooth, just by saying my name, and the bus was comfortable.

At the location, there were various counters, and even if you don't know where to go, the tour staff will kindly guide you. The buggy counter is located to the left after passing the ticket counter on the right side of the entrance, and it's fine to line up 10-15 minutes before your activity.

I recommend leaving everything except your smartphone in the lockers on the left at the entrance, as you might get covered in sand. The lockers are easy to use.

The buggy activity was amazing! Even if you're a paper driver, you can drive, and if it seems too dangerous, the guide will take over. The two guides were very entertaining, and they took many wonderful photos for us. However, some of the main movie filming locations are just passed slowly, so I recommend not forgetting to take pictures.

ツインフィンホテル前でピックアップしてもらいツアーに参加しました。
ピックアップも名前を言うだけでスムーズ、バスも快適でした。
現地では様々なカウンターがあり、どこかわからなくてもツアーの方に聞けばにこやかに教えてくれました。
バギーのカウンターは入り口を抜けて右手のチケットカウンターを過ぎた左手にあり、10-15分前に並べばOKです。
カウンターに並ぶ前に、スマホ以外の全てを入り口左のロッカーに預けることをお勧めします。砂に塗れます。ロッカーも使いやすいです。

バギーアクティビティーは最高でした！
ペーパードライバーでも運転できましたし、あまりに危険そうならガイドが代わってくれるとのことでした。ガイドの2人もとても面白くて、素敵な写真をたくさん撮ってもらいました。
ただ、メインの映画ロケ地のいくつかは横をゆっくり通り過ぎるだけになるので、忘れずに写真を撮ることをお勧めします。

Educational, fun, and awe inspiring views all around this North Shore Eco Tour of the 10,000 acre ranch. Ryan was knowledgeable, showing us all of the different flora and wild boar trails, and went out of his way to provide extra help for me getting in and out of the vehicle and in and out of the water. Had a great time at the "playground" being the only participant to fall completely off my seat! What a great time it was bouncing around the property and basking in nature's beauty.

Our Tour Guide, Jon, was an outstanding storyteller and kept us entertained with background, legends, history and personal observations of the stops on the tour. He was treated us as Ohana and made sure we had water and juice, delivered our lunches to us, checked that every one was comfortable. At the waterfall trail, my knee acted up so I found a shady spot to wait for my husband. Jon had rented a scooter to go down to the waterfall to check on everyone else. On the way back Jon insisted I use the scooter to return to the bus. I nominate him for employee of the year.

I was very nervous before trying parasailing at a height of 150 meters for the first time, but the staff were kind and it was a lot of fun throughout. I didn't feel unsafe and would like to participate again. The motorboat swayed a bit on the waves, so I took motion sickness medication before going.

初めてパラセイリングで150mの高さは乗る前はとてもドキドキでしたが、スタッフ方たちが親切で終始とても楽しかったです。
危ないこともなくまた参加したいです。
モーターボートは時々波にのり揺れます。酔い止めは飲んで行きました。

The tour was fun, but the high waves in Waikiki and the simple life jackets that resembled airplane life vests seemed difficult for my 7-year-old child for snorkeling. We were able to see sea turtles while snorkeling, and it was enjoyable to sail out with the yacht's sails up. It might be fine for children who are strong swimmers and accustomed to snorkeling.

ツアーは楽しかったですが、
7歳の子供にはワイキキの高い波と、
飛行機の救命胴衣のような簡易ライフジャケットはシュノーケルには難しかったようです。
シュノーケルでウミガメも見れましたし、
ヨットの帆を張って沖まで行ったりして楽しかったです。
泳力とシュノーケル慣れのある子供なら大丈夫かも。

Best thing we could do !! Very lucky to see turtles and dolphins !!

I was recommended Hanauma Bay as a great spot in Hawaii by a friend, but I learned that reservations are required for entry. Since I can't drive, I was looking for an all-inclusive plan and found this tour.

I had only snorkeled once before, so I was a bit anxious, but the small group and the attentive guidance in Japanese made it a wonderful experience. I was really happy to see sea turtles!

Hanauma Bay has more waves than I expected, so while floating, my body was swaying, and I was glad I took motion sickness medication. (There were others who got seasick as well. I tend to get motion sickness easily, but thanks to the medication, I had no issues at all.)

I heard that it's difficult to reserve entry tickets for Hanauma Bay, so I'm really glad I booked this tour considering that aspect too.

友人からハワイのおすすめの場所としてハナウマ湾を教えてもらいましたが入場に予約が必要とのことで、車も運転できないので全て込み込みのプランを探しておりこのツアーを見つけました。
シュノーケルは一回しか経験がなく少し不安でしたが、日本語で少人数で丁寧に進めてもらい、ウミガメも見ることができて本当に良かったです！
ハナウマ湾は思ったより波があるので、浮いている間に身体が揺れるので酔い止めを服用していってよかったです。(波酔いしてしまっている方もいました。自分もかなり乗り物酔いしやすいですが、薬の服用のおかげで全然問題なかったです)
ハナウマ湾の入場チケットは予約困難らしく、その点も含めてこのツアーを予約してよかったなと思います。

An interesting tour. Staff are friendly and knowledgable. Loved that we got to stop off and see a few of the sites along the way. Soooo many movies had scenes filmed on location. The views are extraordinary as well.

The staff members are amazing, and the food was delicious, but it would have been perfect if there were more play equipment! The staff doesn't go down to the sea, so it feels like you have to enjoy it on your own. However, the boat was beautiful, there were plenty of fish, and we even got to see turtles, so it was a lot of fun!

スタッフさん達は最高ですし、食事も美味しかったけどもう少し遊具が充実していれば完璧でした！
スタッフさん達は誰も海に降りないので自分たちで楽しむ感じです。でも船は綺麗で魚も沢山いて亀にも会えましたしとても楽しかったです！

This is a tour I wanted to go on for a long time. Since going individually with THE BUS takes a lot of time, I decided to join this tour.

Upon arrival, I received a tour explanation in Japanese, and during the waiting time, I was able to see horses and take photos.

The movie location tour was great as we traveled while enjoying the magnificent mountains from the bus. It was nice to take pictures with dinosaur bones used in Jurassic World.

The Kaneohe Bay cruise was smooth without feeling seasick, and there was no splashing of seawater (those who don't mind getting wet can sit at the front), allowing us to relax while enjoying the beautiful sea.

However, the explanations were in English, so I couldn't understand much. Also, since I was seated at the very back of the bus on the return trip, it was too cold, and I felt like I might catch a cold.

前から行きたかったツアーです
個人で(THE BUS)行くのは時間もかかるのでこちらに参加させて頂きました

到着すると日本語でツアーの説明を受け、待ち時間に馬を見たり写真を撮ったり出来ます

映画ロケ地巡りはバスから壮大な山々を見ながら周ります
ジェラシック・ワールドで使われた?恐竜の骨などと写真が撮れて良かったです

カネオヘ湾クルーズも酔うほど揺れず、海水がかかる事もなく(濡れても良い方は前方に)、綺麗な海を眺めながらのんびりできました
　　
ただ英語の説明なのでチンプンカンプン
だった事と、復路のバスが1番後ろだった為か、寒すぎて風邪引きそうでした

I recently had an amazing horse riding experience, and I couldn’t recommend it more! The ocean views were absolutely breathtaking, and the overall ride was incredibly peaceful and enjoyable. As a beginner, I felt completely at ease, thanks to the friendly and knowledgeable guides. It’s the perfect activity for anyone looking to relax and take in the natural beauty of the surroundings. I’ll definitely be coming back for another ride!

We had a great transportation to and from the boat. The driver was friendly, pleasant, and knowledgeable about the area.I loved being able to snorkel, swim and just be on the platform. There was musical entertainment on the boat, which was nice on the way to and on the way back from the sandbar. The crew made everything fun and made sure that everyone was safe. I would do it again, for sure, and maybe next time I will have the courage to try the stand up paddle board.

I was able to explore under clear skies without encountering any squalls.

I had high expectations for the movie location tour, so I felt it was just okay and wasn't particularly moved. However, I was impressed by the breathtaking views during the jungle exploration tour, especially since I didn't have high expectations for that. It's all about not expecting too much!

スコールにも合わず、晴天の中回れました。

映画のロケ地巡りは期待が大きかったこともあり、まあまあと感じ、感動まではいきませんでしたが、ジャングル探検ツアーは期待していなかった分、絶景に感動しました（笑）
期待し過ぎないことですね。

This time, I purchased from Veltra because there was a discount coupon. If there is no coupon, it's cheaper to buy on-site using coupons like those found in free papers. Also, for seniors, even at regular price, it's cheaper on-site.

今回はベルトラの割引クーポンがあったので、ベルトラから購入しました。クーポンがない場合には、フリーペーパーについているようなクーポンを利用して現地で購入したほうが安いです。
また、シニアのかたは定価でも、現地のほうが安いです。
