All Reviews for Kid Adventures (Ages 8-12)

All three of us were surfing for the first time, and there were people from various countries in the same group lesson. Since my family was the only Japanese group, I felt a bit lonely at first, but we had one instructor dedicated to just the three of us, and he was fluent in Japanese, so we were able to enjoy surfing without any worries. I would like to try again when I go to Hawaii. The water was clear, the sky was blue, and we had the best time.

３人とも初めてのサーフィンで、さまざまな国の方々が同じグループのレッスンに参加されており、日本人は私の家族だけだったので、最初は少し心細く感じていましたが、私たち３人に１人の先生が専任でついて下さり、先生も日本語が堪能な方でしたので、なんの心配もなくサーフィンを楽しむことができました。またハワイに出かけたら、再度チャレンジしてみたいと思います。
水もきれいで、空も青く、最高の時間を過ごすことができました。

I was a little late for the scheduled meeting time, but when I called to inform them, they said they would wait for 20 minutes. I made it just in time to sign the agreement. It was a one-hour course as planned. My family of six participated, along with two others at the same time, making a total of eight of us setting sail. We were divided into two groups of three for the parasailing. In no time, we were up in the blue sky. It was an experience of just under 10 minutes while enjoying the best views. I thought it would be a short time before the experience, but since it was my first time, 10 minutes was just right. Thank you very much.

少し予定の集合時間に遅れてしまいましたが、遅れる旨の電話を入れると20分は待ってくださるとのことでした。
無事、間に合って同意書にサイン。
予定通りの1時間のコースでした。家族6人で参加しましたが、同時間に2名の方と参加で、計8名で出航しました。
6名を3人ずつに分けて、パラセイルを装着。
あっという間に、青空へ。
最高の景色を楽しみながら約10分弱の体験でした。少ない時間だなあーと体験前は思っていましたが、初めてだったので、10分弱でちょうど良かったです。
ありがとうございました。

After arriving on site as scheduled, the check-in process was smooth and stress-free. After watching the Japanese guidance video, we set off right away. The horses were well-behaved, and we enjoyed the scenery during the perfect two-hour ride. I have nothing to say but thank you for the wonderful time and views.

予定通りに現地に到着後は、
チェックインもストレスなく、スムーズにできました。日本語の案内ビデオを見て、すぐに出発。
お馬さんたちもお利口で、景色を楽しみながらピッタリ2時間のライディングでした。
何も言うことありません。
最高の時間と、景色をありがとうございました。

I was surprised to see the bus driver, who departed from the hotel, using a mobile phone while driving on the highway. I was a bit anxious and fastened my seatbelt, praying that no accident would occur. Since the driver is a local, I hope they will implement measures such as having another tour guide accompany him.

ホテルから出発したバスの運転手が高速道路で携帯を操作しながら運転していたのにはビックリしました。ちょっとさすがに焦ってシートベルトを締めて
事故が起こらないことを祈りました。運転手は現地の人なのでもう一人添乗員を置くなど対策してもらいたいです。

The food wasn't very delicious. The guidance wasn't very good either. It felt like a conveyor-belt type of service. I felt a bit left out. I understand that the dishes are served on one plate, but it was disappointing that everything was mixed together. The show was good, though.

食事があまり美味しくなかったかな。案内があまりよろしくなかった。流れ作業で案内。ちょっとおいてけぼり感がありました。料理もワンプレートはわかりますが、みんないっしょにごちゃ混ぜ状態になって残念。ショーはよかったよ

I usually lack exercise, but I enjoyed it without feeling tired at all. I was worried about the round trip, but there were no problems with the tour. I was disappointed that I couldn't understand the guide's explanations because I'm not good at English. It made me realize that I should study English again, haha.

普段運動不足でしたが全然しんどくなく楽しめました。行き帰りも心配でしてたがツアーだと何も問題なかったです。ただ英語が苦手だったので案内人の説明が分からなかったのが残念でした。英語は勉強しようと改めて思いました笑

It was a kayak-only rental, but the relaxed atmosphere of being able to freely use snorkeling gear and bicycles until closing time was fantastic. I even encountered a sea turtle while kayaking, which was amazing! Transporting the kayak to the sea was quite challenging.

カヤックのみのレンタルでしたが、閉店までシュノーケルや自転車など自由に使って良いなどゆったりした感じが最高でした。
カヤックではウミガメにも遭遇できて最高でした！
カヤックを海まで運ぶのが結構大変でした。

Snorkeling with Mickey was so much fun! It was good to see that he was enjoying it as much as we were, even though it’s something he’s done many times. He really knows how to make you feel at ease while in the water, even for first time or lesser experienced swimmers. The activity itself was very cool. We got to see some interesting animals at the ocean floor, such as sea cucumbers, sea urchins, and even some fish. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is thinking of signing up for it, and for such a reasonable price too. Surprisingly the photo’s actually turned out quite well too.

The overall experience was simply amazing!
It was my first time parasailing and the crew was very helpful and made us comfortable.
The view from above was spectacular and I’d surely recommend anyone and everyone to go for it!
Very safe and extremely exciting.
The kids enjoyed it too

I participated in the celebration of my 60th birthday.
I attended with my wife.
It was my first time horseback riding, and I was a bit anxious, but once I started, the horse was very intelligent, and I felt a sense of unity and reassurance, which made me very happy and comfortable.

In the midst of the wonderful scenery, I had an amazing experience feeling like I could play freely with the horse.

I am grateful to the accompanying staff.
Thank you very much.

還暦の記念で参加させていただきました。
妻と2人で参加しました。
乗馬は、初めてで少し不安もありましたが、乗り始めると、とても馬が利口で安心して一体感を感じるこができたのがうれしく気持ちよかったです。

素晴らしい景色のなかで、馬と程よく自由に遊べたという感覚で素晴らしい体験ができました。

随行スタッフの方に感謝です。
ありがとうございました。

[Before Boarding]
- The office had a restroom and a shop (selling original T-shirts, etc.).
- Before boarding, there was a camera check, and they reinforced it with zip ties to prevent it from falling. My companion was lent a GoPro handheld stick for free.
- I wore glasses and boarded as is, but my companion, who wore contact lenses, was offered sunglasses for free (with three options to choose from) to protect their eyes.
- Other carry-on luggage was handed over at the counter, and I received a key for a free locker.

[After Flight]
- I handed over the locker key and received my luggage over the counter.
- I was offered footage taken by the staff during the flight, but it wasn't pushy, and I left without purchasing anything (the footage I took myself from the first-class seat next to the cockpit is more memorable).

【搭乗前】
・事務所にはトイレと売店（オリジナルＴシャツなど）がありました。
・搭乗前にカメラのチェックがあり、落下しないよう結束バンドで補強してくれました。同伴者はGoProのハンドヘルドスティックを無償で貸してもらいました。
・眼鏡着用の私はそのまま搭乗しましたが、コンタクトレンズ着用の同伴者には目を保護するためにサングラスの無償貸与（３つから選択）がありました。
・カメラ以外の手荷物はカウンターで手渡し、無償ロッカーのキーを受け取りました。
【飛行後】
・ロッカーのキーを手渡し、カウンター越しに手荷物を受け取りました。
・同乗スタッフが撮影した飛行中の映像を斡旋されましたが、強引なものではなく、何も買わずに帰りました（ファーストクラス席＝操縦席横で自ら撮影した映像の方が思い出になるので）。

The basics were very helpful, however, the limitations with life vests and the lack of actual sea life made it a little less of a good experience. Overall it was received well by the family and was fun enough.

The moment I floated up into the sky, the blue ocean spread out below me, and it was amazing! The weather was also great, and I could see Diamond Head beautifully. I think it's best to wear clothes that you don't mind getting wet, as you might get a little splashed.

空にフワッと舞い上がった瞬間、眼下に青い海が広がって最高でした!お天気にも恵まれ、ダイアモンドヘッドも綺麗に見れました。少し濡れるので濡れてもよい服装で参加したらよいと思います。

What an awesome show, it hits everything you want to see, fire dance, pig roast, games and hawaiian activities!

What an evening to celebrate an anniversary! Fabulous food and performers.

This is a blast of a day! The best tour we had on our trip!

One of the best adventures we did while in Hawaii. The staff was great, the history of the ranch was so exciting to learn about. It’s a must do while in Hawaii.We are still talking about our great times on vacation.

Thank you for all you all for an amazing day!!!

The show was very good, particularly the chief. He is a talented entertainer who interacted very well with his audience. The dancers were also very talented.
The buffet dinner was okay, nothing special.

It takes about a 50-minute drive from Waikiki to arrive. There are various experience tours available, and it's a popular tourist destination visited by many. The horses provided are well-trained and walk in a line without needing any guidance. However, my horse seemed a bit stubborn and didn't move until the guide gave it a gentle tap on the rear. I had a great experience riding through the magnificent grounds surrounded by mountains, and we also passed near the seaside. The breeze from the ocean added to the feeling of being in nature.

ワイキキから車で50分のドライブで到着。いろんな体験ツアーが用意されており、沢山の観光客が訪れている観光地です。
用意されている馬は慣れており、何もしなくても列を作って歩いていきます。ただ、私の馬はひねくれ者のようで、引率者のおねーさんが馬のお尻を叩くまで、動きません。良い体験をしました、山に囲まれた壮大な敷地を乗馬しますが、海辺の近くも通ります。海からの風もあり、自然を感じました。

We used it with three people.

Since we were the first, we were thrown into the sea without a moment to catch our breath. Haha.

It became the best memory!

Thank you very much! ^ ^

3人で利用しました。

トップバッターだったので、息つく間もなく
海上に飛ばされました。笑

最高の思い出となりました！

ありがとうございました^ ^

On December 10th, I participated with my wife and our two sons, aged 0 and 3. At that time, the dolphin interaction at Sea Life Park was closed for renovations, and the other dolphin tours featured snorkeling with dolphins, which would be difficult with our young children, so we chose this option. I had heard that in December, if luck was on our side, we might see whales, so I was just hoping to see some dolphins or whales, but we were able to see dolphins, which made me very satisfied. Additionally, the boat played some lively music, and we could enjoy a few drinks, which added to the sense of adventure.

12月10日に0歳、3歳の息子と、妻と私の4人で参加しました。
当時はシーライフパークのイルカ触れ合いは改装で中止しており、他のイルカツアーはシュノーケリングでイルカと泳げるのがウリで、0,
3歳児を連れては難しいためこちらに参加しました。
12月は運が良ければクジラが見られるとのことだったので、イルカやクジラが見られればいいなという程度でしたが、無事イルカが見られてとても満足です。
また、船は結構イケイケな音楽がかかって、お酒が何杯か飲めるので、非日常感が味わえました。

Dinner Plan B: We participated as a family of three. For the first time, the server was also Japanese. I have dined here several times, and the food is consistently delicious. I was satisfied with the dishes. However, I was served a different drink than what I ordered. Since it was crowded, I chose not to point it out to avoid any hassle. I was a bit disappointed, considering they should be excellent, being Japanese.

ディナープランB 家族３人で参加。いままでになく、給仕係も日本人でした。何回か食事した事ありますが、間違えない美味しさ。料理は満足です。ドリンクをオーダーと違うものを出されました。こんでいるので、面倒な事になることを、避けるため、指摘しませんでした。優秀なはずの日本人なのに、少しガッカリ。

The guide spoke only English, but was very kind and took many family photos for us. The guide's leading on the bike was considerate of the entire group, allowing everyone to enjoy without feeling rushed. Along the way, we visited many movie filming locations, but aside from Jurassic Park, I hadn't seen any of them before. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had done some research beforehand. That said, we were blessed with good weather, and riding the e-mountain bike through the great outdoors was incredibly fun and amazing.

英語のみのガイドさんでしたが、とても親切で、たくさん家族の写真を撮ってくれました。
ガイドさんのバイクの先導も、一行全員を気づかっていただき、慌てることなく、参加した全員が楽しめたように感じます。
途中、映画のロケシーンを沢山まわりたしたが、ジュラシックパークス以外は見たことがなく、予習しておけば、もっと楽しめたとおもいます。
とはいっても、天気に恵まれ、eマウンテンバイクで大自然の風を切るのはとても楽しく、最高でした。

At first, I was anxious, but the crew's support and safety equipment made me feel secure, and I was able to enjoy the zip line! It was amazing✨. I was fine in short sleeves and shorts. Since you wear a helmet, it would have been better to bring a hat! On the way to the location, you can also see movie filming spots!

最初は、不安でしたが、クルーの対応や安全器具で安心して、ZIP LINEを楽しめました!最高です✨
半袖、半ズボンでも、大丈夫でした。ヘルメットをかぶるので、帽子を持っていったほうが良かったです!
現地に、行く途中、映画の撮影場所も見ることができます!

I'm really glad I was able to enter Hanauma Bay, which requires a reservation! The instructor was very polite and spoke Japanese, which was quite helpful. There were 10 participants and 2 instructors this time, but since the activities were tailored to the participants' levels, the snorkeling ended up being quite shallow, and the water clarity wasn't great. I was really looking forward to snorkeling in Hawaii, so it was a bit disappointing.

予約がないと入れないハナウマベイに入れたのは、とってもよかったです‼︎
インストラクターの方はとても丁寧で日本語も話せるので、かなり助かりました。
今回は参加者10人、インストラクター2人だったのですが、参加者のレベルに合わせてになるので今回のシュノーケリングらかなり浅瀬のみでの実施になってしまい、普通のシュノーケリングかつ海の透明度もイマイチでした。。
ハワイでのシュノーケリングなのでかなり楽しみにしていた手前少し残念でした。。

I made a reservation for 1:00 PM.
I arrived about 15 minutes early and checked in at the counter inside the ranch.
Japanese is not spoken, so a translation app is necessary.
After checking in, walk to the right side of the ranch for a brief buggy training session.
A female staff member was in charge and really tried to make it exciting.
Raincoats and face masks are provided for free, and once you put on a full-face helmet, you're ready to go.

You get to explore various courses for about an hour.
Kualoa Ranch has an amazing location, but the time commitment and waiting can be long.
Here, you can start and finish quickly.
Once you're done, you can enjoy plenty of activities in Haleiwa before heading back.

13:00の予約申し込みをしました。
15分ほど前に到着し、
牧場内のカウンターでチェックインを済ませます。
日本語は通じませんので、翻訳アプリが必要です。
チェックイン後は、牧場内右手に歩いていき、バギーの簡単な講習説明があります。
女性のスタッフが担当してくれたのですが、凄く盛り上げようとしてくれます。
カッパと、フェイスマスクは無料で配布され、フルフェイスヘルメットを被れば出発です。

小一時間色んなコースを回らせてくれます。
クアロアランチはロケーションが最高ですが、
拘束時間と待ち時間が長いです。
こちらはサッと始められてサッと終われます。
終わればハレイワの街でたっぷり遊んで帰れますよ。

Unfortunately, it was quite cold and rainy, so most people only played a little in the sea at the sandbar.

However, it's natural, and since December is the rainy season in Hawaii, it can't be helped.

During the sea turtle watching, we were able to spot many sea turtles from the boat.

After that, we went snorkeling. There were many fish swimming around the coral reef, and it was a great experience. I hope to visit again in the warmer summer season next time.

生憎の雨模様でかなり寒く、ほとんどの人がサンドバーでは少し海に入って遊ぶだけでした。

ただ、自然のことですし、ハワイは12月が雨季ということで仕方がないですね。

海亀ウォッチングでは、多くの海亀を船上から見つけることができました。

その後、シュノーケリング。珊瑚礁の周りを魚が多く泳いでおり、いい経験になりました。願わくば次は夏のより暖かい季節に訪れたいと思います。

This was my first experience in Hawaii. The food was a buffet with a variety of Hawaiian dishes, and there were even desserts. There was also a performance during the meal, which was fantastic.

After the meal, we moved to watch a show, and it was very moving. I think it's worth experiencing at least once if you come to Hawaii. Lastly, we were able to greet the performers and take photos with them, which was fun.

Time flew by, but I believe it's a tour that can be utilized effectively.

初めてのハワイでの体験です。
ご飯はビュッフェでハワイのいろんな料理が食べれてデザートまでありました。
また食事中にパフォーマンスもあって最高でした。

食事後移動してショーを見ましたがとても感動しました。ハワイにきたなら一度体験してみる価値があると思います。
最後にグリーティングもできて出演者と写真も撮れて楽しかったです。

時間があっという間に過ぎましたが有効活用できるツアーだと思います。

I encountered heavy rain. I was able to buy a poncho at the shop, but the parts that weren't covered got soaked and cold (as a result, I ended up buying clothes at the shop. The air conditioning on the bus to and from was also cold). So, I thought it would be necessary to prepare for that (like bringing a change of clothes, etc.).

Driving the buggy and being surrounded by vast nature was very refreshing and enjoyable! I thought it would be absolutely amazing on a sunny day. Next time, I will come on a sunny day!

大雨の日に当たってしまいました。
売店でポンチョを購入できましたが、それで守られてない部分はビショビショになり寒かったです(結果的に売店で服を購入しました。行き帰りのバスの冷房も寒いです)。
なので、その対策(着替え用意etc)をする必要があると思いました。

バギーでの運転と広大な自然は、開放感があってとても楽しかったです！
晴れの日だったら文句なく最高なんだろうな、と思いました。
今度は晴れの日に来ます！

You can interact with dolphins a lot, touching and playing with them. However, the price is a bit high for the experience time, and although they probably explained about the dolphins' ecology, I was disappointed that I couldn't understand much due to my English skills. At Sea Life Park, there are staff who speak Japanese and guided us to the experience venue, so I wish there had been someone who could provide explanations in Japanese during the experience.

イルカとたっぷり触れ合い、たくさん触ったり遊んだりすることが出来ます。ただ体験時間に対して金額は高めであることと、多分イルカの生態のことなどを説明してくれているのですが、自分の英語力ではあまり理解することが出来なかったのが残念でした。シーライフパークには日本語を喋れるスタッフもいて、体験会場までは誘導してくれたので、体験中も日本語で解説してくれる人がいたら良いなと思いました。
