All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

This was my first time participating in a tour at Kualoa Ranch. Since I had rented a car, I opted for a plan without transportation. With the no-transportation plan, there were no coordinators, so the process was simply checking in upon arrival, and it didn't matter whether I made the reservation here or directly on-site.

I thoroughly enjoyed the tour, but there were two disappointing points. I had checked the best seats in advance, so I arrived early at the meeting place to secure a good seat. However, due to a Chinese family that arrived last, my seat was changed to the very back, which was the bumpiest spot.

Additionally, that Chinese family occupied the seats in front of us and, for some reason, kept eating rice balls and Spam in the shaking vehicle, creating a cloud of dust. I wanted to enjoy the natural scents, but instead, it smelled like Spam.

クアロアランチのツアーは初参加。レンタカーを借りていたので送迎なしのプランでした。送迎なしプランはコーディネーターさんなどいないので到着してチェックインしてといった流れでこちらで予約しても現地で直接予約しても変わりません。
ツアー自体は満喫しましたが残念だった点が2点ほど、
事前にベストの座席をチェックしていたので早めに集合場所に行き座席を確保したのですが、最後に来た中国人家族団体のせいで座席を変更されてしまいまさかの1番揺れる1番後ろの席になりました。
さらにその中国人家族団体は私たちの前の席を陣取っており何故か砂煙が舞う揺れる車中でずっとおにぎりやスパムを食べていました。せっかく自然の香りを堪能したかったのにスパム臭い。

It says in English, but it's okay if you speak broken Japanese.
They will teach you how to use the equipment step by step.
Taking commemorative photos is optional, but it's worth the cost.
They take over 100 shots and give you an SD card with the photos.
Also, say "Japan okay!" and they'll drop you into the sea.
It's refreshing!
I want to challenge myself again next year.

英語と書いてありますが、カタコト日本語大丈夫です。
装備も手取り足取り教えてくれます。
記念の写真はオプションですが、払う価値あります。
１００枚以上のショットを撮影、SDカードで渡してくれます。
あとジャッポーンオッケーと言いましょう！
そうすると海へと落としてくれます。
爽快ですよ！
来年もチャレンジしたいと思います。

Expérience géniale !
Dans un décor sublime un moment inoubliable
Je vous conseille le VTT Raptor pour faire le plein de sensations.
Vous pouvez venir avec vos enfants en toute sécurité !

My family went on this adventure because friends suggested it. We were not disappointed. The staff was so nice and attentive. We were able to enjoy snorkeling, kayak and SUP. I had never snorkeled before and I was amazing by how beautiful all the sea life was. We loved listening to the music, eat donuts and even had a chance to see a sea turtle swim by. Would definitely recommend!

Awesome experience highly recommend they were on time. Prompt efficient, friendly so much fun great music great staff again. Don’t miss it if you’re in Hawaii!!!

This was an amazing activity for our entire family, from a 3yr old to the grandma. The staff was friendly and encouraging and the band was great too!


My three-year-old rode the bumper raft, and the staff took their time driving slowly and carefully so that he can enjoy the activity.

My older kids did the bumper raft, snorkeled and did sup. Plenty to do in the allowed hours.

We highly recommend!

기대를 해서 갔는데 완전 대 실망
다 떨어져 나갈 것 같은 버스에 창문이 없어서 먼지가 풀풀 날리고,
영화 촬영지라 해서 영화의 한 장면 흔적이라도 있을꺼라 생각 하고
기대 하고 갔는데, 영화 촬영한 간판 조그만한거 하나 붙여 놓고 여기서
촬영 했다는 설명.. ㅡㅡ^
누가 간다고 한다면 절대 추천 하지 않겠슴
돈 낭비, 시간 낭비 만 한 것 같음.

No one spoke English, but the local coordinator was very kind, interesting, and made it enjoyable for us.

英語が誰ひとり、できませんでしたが、現地のコーディネーターの人が大変、優しく、おもしろく、接していただき楽しめる事ができました

I am at fault for being late, but I was delayed in checking in due to traffic conditions, and it seems my reasons were not accepted, so the fee of 150,000 yen will not be refunded. I thought at least I could change the time, but that was also not allowed. I feel so sorry for the children; it was the worst.

時間に遅れた私が悪いのですが、交通事情でチェックインに遅れ、理由を聞き入れてもらえず、代金15万円は返却されないようです。せめて時間変更をと思いましたが時間変更も駄目ということ、子供達が可哀想で可哀想で､､､最悪でした。

I received a clear explanation of the history of the Kingdom of Hawaii in Japanese. It was a meet-up at the location, but it was close to the bus stop, and since the area is residential, it was fine. It was my first time doing hula dancing, but they taught it slowly, so I was able to keep up! Making leis was also fun. I highly recommend it!

ハワイ王国の歴史を日本語でわかりやすく説明していただきました。現地集合でしたが、バス停からも近く、周囲は住宅街なので大丈夫でした。フラダンスは初めてでしたが、ゆっくり教えてくださったので、ついていくことができました！レイ作りも楽しかったです。お勧めです！

Since the tour was during high tide, the island didn't appear, just a shallow sea. The guides were kind, but overall, I think the price was high. I don't think I'll try again.

満潮時にツアーだった為島は現れずただの遠浅の海。
ガイドさん達は親切ではあったがトータルしても料金は高いかな？リベンジしようとは思わない。

This time, I came to Hawaii with my 8-year-old grandson, and we participated in a tour where we could play with dolphins at Sea Life Park. It was an experience that we can't have much in Japan, and my grandson was very happy. At first, he was a little scared, but the staff guided us well, so he gradually got used to it and seemed to have fun. I also enjoyed it, feeling nostalgic since it had been a while since my last visit.

今回は8歳の孫と一緒にハワイに来たのでシーライフパークでイルカと遊べるツアーに参加しました。日本国内ではあまり経験できないことができて、孫は大変喜んでいました。最初は少し怖がっていましたが、スタッフの誘導が上手なので徐々に慣れてきて、楽しそうでした。私も久々に訪れたので懐かしさもあり楽しめました。

Although the weather was cloudy with occasional rain and the tide was somewhat high (around 1 meter at the sandbar), I believe it was not the best climatic condition. However, thanks to the cheerful and warm-hearted staff, the captain's performance, and the adorable marine creatures we encountered, we added a wonderful page to our memories of our first trip to Hawaii!

I participated with my wife and our children, aged 4 and 8, and our whole family was able to enjoy the activities with peace of mind from our respective positions.

Thank you very much!

曇天～時折雨天で潮位もやや高く（サンドバーで1m前後？）、決して気候的にはベストコンディションとは言えない状況だったと思いますが、陽気で暖かな心遣い満点のスタッフのみなさん・キャプテンのパフォーマンスやかわいい海の住民たちとの出会いにより、初めてのハワイ旅行の思い出に最高の１ページが加わりました！
妻と４歳・８歳の子供たちと参加しましたが、家族一同それぞれの立場で安心してアクティビティを満喫できました。
ありがとうございました！

Great experience arranged by great people! I Can highly recommend this trip.

This was probably the best tour we went on during our trip. The snorkeling was arguably better than Hanauma Bay. There were less fish, but the corals were in way better shape and the water was a lot calmer. I probably spent most of my time just snorkeling. The kayaks and paddle boards were alright. There isn’t much to do on them so I didn’t really spend much of my time on those. I saw mostly a parent and their kids riding the kayaks. There is a platform in the middle that you can hang out in. The food was good, but I suggest bringing extra snacks as I got a little hungry after hanging out at the sandbar. For drinks they only served beer and hard seltzers, but they gave you the option to bring your own if you’re into that. We were there during high tide so there wasn’t much to stand on, but you can still get your feet on the sand in some parts. We opted for the banana boat and bumper tube and this probably was my favorite part. Banana boat was okay, but the bumper tube ride was insane. I got the opportunity to ride solo on one of the runs and I asked them to give me the crazy ride, and man did they deliver. BIG shoutout to the guy towing the tube. The staff was awesome and super accommodating. They let everyone have fun while keeping it safe. Definitely the best experience out of all the other ones we did in Oahu (cruise, Kualoa ranch, hanauma bay, shark swimming). Would recommend and is a 100% must do in my opinion.

My family and I had such an amazing time at this Luau. Felt so welcomed, the staff was so friendly and organized. Really appreciated the digital photos included and the veggie dish I received was so yummy!

Once a year, I travel to Hawaii with my wife to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and we enjoy dinner at Taormina. This year, we had a wonderful time again with delicious food and the staff's warm hospitality. When I mentioned to the staff that it was our 31st wedding anniversary, they surprised us with a dessert plate at the end of dinner, making it a memorable and fantastic dining experience once again. I definitely plan to return to Taormina next year!

一年に一度結婚記念を兼ねて妻とハワイに旅行し、タオルミーナでディナーを楽しんでいます。今年もまた美味しい料理とスタッフさんのホスピタリティーあふれるおもてなしに最高の時間を過ごす事が出来ました。今年で結婚31周年だとスタッフさんにお話したところ、ディナーの最後にサプライズのデザートプレートを出して下さり、今年も思い出深い最高のディナーを楽しむ事が出来ました。また来年も必ずタオルミーナに帰って来ようと思います！

We loved our Raptor trip at Kualoa Ranch. The property is beautiful with so many great stories, and the tour guides were great. We highly recommend!

The tour was awesome. My 13 and 11 year old loved it and loved getting to hear all the stories of the different actors that have been there and left wanting to watch a ton of movies! Sam was great and so was our tour guide! Loved being able to get off and take pictures at different spots

The sliders here are all incredibly enjoyable and fun. This time, a Japanese staff member provided various explanations and assistance, which was very reassuring. You can take one unopened bottle of water per person, so it's more economical to bring your own. Credit cards are accepted within the facility, so you probably don't need to bring cash. I think the locker fees have gone up a bit. During my visit on August 1st, the large locker was $18.

ここのスライダーはどれも最高に気持ち良く、楽しいものばかりです。
今回は、日本の方が、色々と説明してくれ、アシストもしてくれるのでとても心強かったです。
水は、一人一本未開封のボトルが持っていけるので、持って行った方が節約になります。
施設内では、クレジットカードが使えるので、現金は持って行かなくてもいいかと思います。
ロッカー代は、少し値段が上がってると思います。今回8月1日の利用でしたが、大きいロッカーが18ドルでした。

The entire boat crew made this an experience to remover for ever. If you are in the area, I would highly recommend booking an evening tour with them, job well done!

We participated as a family of three. While cruising on the boat, the waves were quite strong, and the driver enjoyed riding the waves, resulting in most people getting soaked, which made for a fun time. I was trying to avoid the splashes, but my daughter was having a blast and making a lot of noise. I would love to participate again.

家族3人で参加しました。クルーザーで海を流していると、波が結構強く、運転手も楽しんで波にのり、大半の人がビシャビシャになり、楽しい時間でした。私はシブキを避けてましたが、娘は大騒ぎではしゃいで楽しんでました。また参加したいと思いました。

This activity is one of the best ! You get to swim in clear blue waters . The crew is very professional and they help you feel safe . The views are amazing and surreal. The crew is helpful and super nice. My kids felt safe and loved it

I experienced three activities: jet skiing, banana boat, and bumper tube. Each activity had plenty of time allocated, and I was tossed around so much on the banana boat and bumper tube that I was practically begging for help. I'm very satisfied.

ジェットスキー、バナナボート、バンパーチューブの3種目を体験しました。それぞれの体験時間も十分確保されていて、バナナボートやバンパーチューブはもう助けてってくらい引き回されました。満足です。

Outstanding staff! Awesome experience for kids and adults! Beautiful island!

We didn't get to see any turtles but there were lots of fish. Overall we had a good time

I got lost and arrived late for the meeting time, but the staff kindly guided me. The moving boat was going quite fast, and I was filled with fear thinking about being pulled at that speed, but once I took off, I didn't feel the speed in the sky and was able to enjoy the scenery gracefully. Since the boat sways a lot, I think it's better to take motion sickness medication.

道に迷ってしまい集合時間に遅れて到着したのですが、スタッフさんが優しく案内してくださいました。移動の船はかなりのスピードが出ていて、この速さで引っ張られるのかとかなり恐怖心を煽られましたが、飛んでみると空の上ではスピードは感じず優雅に景色を楽しむことができました。
船の揺れがすごいので酔い止めは飲んだ方が良いと思います。

I was moved by the incredibly beautiful sea. There was transportation to the main points in Waikiki, and there was a Japanese guide on the boat who provided plenty of explanations, so I felt secure and enjoyed myself. I was able to try SUP, which I had always wanted to do, and I saw many fish while snorkeling (although I didn't get to see any sea turtles…). For snacks, there were donuts, and the soft drinks available were water, orange juice, and hot water. There is a changing room on the boat, so it's better to bring a change of clothes. You will end up freezing on the air-conditioned bus ride back.
It seems that you need to go with a different tour company to visit the so-called sandbar (a beach surrounded by the sea). The area we played in was shallow enough to stand, but it was a bit deeper in some spots.

とにかく綺麗な海で感動しました。ワイキキの主要ポイントへの送迎があり、船には日本人のガイドさんも乗っていたので説明も十分にしていただき安心して楽しめました。ずっとやってみたかったSUPもできたし、シュノーケリングではたくさんの魚が見れました。(ウミガメには会えませんでした…)軽食にはドーナツ、ソフトドリンクは水、オレンジジュース、お湯がありました。船の中に更衣室があるので着替えを持っていったほうがいいです。凍えながら冷房の効いたバスで帰ることになります。
いわゆるサンドバー(海に囲まれた砂浜)は別のツアー会社じゃないといけないみたいです。我々が遊んだ海は足がつくけどちょっと深めのところでした。

It may have been a coincidence, but the Japanese were only among themselves. I was a bit anxious since there were no explanations in Japanese, but I was able to enjoy dolphins and snorkeling in a world without Japanese, which was different from Waikiki, without any major issues.

たまたまかもしれませんが、日本人は自分たちだけ。
日本語の説明は一切ないので不安もありましたが、大きく困ることもなく、ワイキキとは違う日本語のない世界でイルカやシュノーケルを楽しめました。

This is my second experience, following last year. At first, I feel nervous, but it's very pleasant and a fun activity.

去年に続き、2回目の体験です。
初めはドキドキしますが、とても気持ちがよく、楽しいアクティビティです。
