All Reviews for Kid Adventures (Ages 8-12)

This is the 2nd year in a row my family and I have booked this snorkel cruise. We loved it each time. We loved being in the middle of the ocean snorkeling and being on the sand bar. We felt safe each time and had a lot of fun. The staff was wonderful and the food was great as well. Anytime we come to Oahu, Captain Bobs is our go to!

Our honeymoon, and our first time in Hawaii!
We went to the sandbar (*^^*)
I heard it can be affected by the weather, but it was beautifully sunny! We also saw a lot of sea turtles, which was very moving (；＿；)
The hamburgers we had on the boat were exceptional!!
I definitely want to come back again!

新婚旅行にて、初めてのハワイ！
そしてサンドバーでした(*^^*)
天候によって左右されるとの事でしたが
見事に快晴！そしてウミガメも沢山見れてとても感動しました(；＿；)
船上で食べるハンバーガーも格別！！
また絶対来たいです！

I have been there for lunch before, and this time I visited for dinner. We went with six people, and since we had a reservation, we were smoothly guided to our seats. The dishes were all beautifully presented, and they tasted as good as they looked. I think it was a good deal since we booked through Veltra and had a course meal. We paid separately for drinks and tips on the day. I believe it's a restaurant where you can enjoy your meal with peace of mind. We made a reservation for 5:30 PM, but shortly after, it was fully booked, and there were people waiting at the reception, so it's definitely a place where reservations are necessary.

以前ランチで行った事があります、今回はディナーで訪問。
６名で行きましたが予約していたので、スムーズに席に案内していただきました。
お料理は見た目にどれも綺麗です。味も見た目通りで美味しかったです。
ベルトラさんで予約していたのでコースでしたが安くで済んだと思います。
飲み物は別料金とチップで当日支払いしました。安心して食事ができる店だと思います。
17：30予約していきましたが、少しすると満席で受付に待ってる人もいましたので、予約は必要な店ですね。

There were three of us participating, and the rest were about 25 foreign guests. We were lucky to have two guides, and one Japanese guide was assigned to our group of three, providing detailed explanations on various topics. The ground was wet and uneven, so it was necessary to take precautions against slipping. I think it's best to be prepared for muddy shoes as well. The path to the waterfall features various plants and power spots, so it was never boring.

On the way back, we received sandwiches and were taken directly to Tantalus Lookout for lunch. It was a beautiful hill with a great view of Diamond Head and Waikiki, and it felt wonderful to be there.

私達３人で参加しました、他は全て２５人程は外国人の方々でした。
ガイドさんが二人付いてくれてて、一人の日本人ガイドさんが３人に付いてくれたのでとてもラッキーで細かい事まで丁寧に説明してもらえました。
足下は湿ってて足がゴロゴロしてるので、滑らない工夫が必要です。泥で靴も汚れますので覚悟してたほうがいいと思います、滝までの道のりは色々な植物やパワースポットがあり飽きません。
帰りにサンドイッチを受け取りそのままタンタラスの丘まで連れて行ってもらい昼食でした、ダイヤモンドヘッドとワイキキが見渡せるとても見晴らしのキレイな丘で気持ち良かったです。

Guide Chieko and Ben provided thorough explanations and took underwater photos for us, so we didn't have to buy a waterproof case to capture beautiful pictures. Although I heard that booking Hanauma Bay can be quite a hassle, this tour allowed us to enjoy it without any of that trouble.

ガイドのチエコさん、ベンさんが丁寧に説明してくれて、水中写真も撮ってくれたので、自分で防水ケースを買って撮らなくてもきれいな写真を撮ってくれた。ハナウマ湾は予約が大変とのことだったが、このツアーはそんな煩わしさがないので楽しめた。

There are sharks everywhere, not just a few. Sharks in 360 degrees.
The cage is so wide that not only my hands and feet but even my body can easily stick out; in fact, if the sharks really try, they could get in too. It's a tour that depends on the sharks' mood.
There were no Japanese participants, but there was one Japanese staff member, which made me feel very reassured.
A GoPro is essential; it seems you can rent one there too. I think it will be a topic of conversation for ages, so you should definitely take photos and videos. I’ll probably brag about it to my grandchildren right before I die.
I was in the cage for 20 minutes, but I think 10 minutes would have been enough (laughs). In the first half, I was moved by seeing the sharks, and in the second half, I was just swaying around like in a washing machine. I got seasick. You will definitely get seasick. Even if you take motion sickness medication, you will still feel it.
The staff member said the weather on the day I participated was very calm, but once you're in the cage, that doesn't matter; you will get seasick.
On the way back on the boat, a handsome guy with bronze hair was throwing up right in front of me. The boat was moving at a decent speed, so the vomit was flying sideways. Even while throwing up, he was still handsome.
The distance from the hotel in Waikiki to the North Shore is too far, so it's better to check your transportation options properly. It seemed like everyone came by rental car. We took a bus transfer, but I was most worried about whether we would make it there.
Overall, I was very satisfied! I don't think I'll ever get the chance to swim with sharks again in my life, so if you're hesitating, you should definitely do it. You’ll get to see the handsome guy's blue face.

サメがうじゃうじゃおる、ちらほらじゃない。360度サメ。
檻の幅が広すぎて手足どころか身体も全然出る、なんならサメも頑張りゃ入れる。サメのお気持ち次第のツアー。
参加者に日本人はいなかったけど、スタッフに1人日本人のお兄さんがいたのでとっても安心でした。
GoProは必須、向こうでもレンタル出来るみたい。未来永劫話のネタになると思うから絶対写真も動画も撮るべき。死ぬ直前にも孫に自慢する思う。
20分檻の中に居たけど、10分でええと思った（笑）前半はサメ見て感動して、後半は洗濯機の中でただただ揺られてた。酔う。絶対に酔う。酔い止め飲んでも酔う。
自分が参加した日の気候、めちゃくちゃ穏やかってお兄さん言ってたけど、檻の中入りゃあそんなん関係ない、酔います。
帰りの船の中、ブロンズヘアのイケメンが目の前でずっと吐きょうた。まあまあの速度で船動いとるからゲロが真横に吹き飛んでた。吐いててもイケメンはイケメン。
ワイキキのホテルからノースショアまでが遠すぎて、足はちゃんと調べた方が良い。みんなレンタカーで来てたっぽい。自分たちはバス乗り継いで行ったけど、辿り着けるかが1番不安だった。
総じて大満足！サメと泳げることとか多分これからの人生でないと思うから、迷ってるならやるべき。イケメンの青い顔が見れます。

The hamburger with grilled meat that they made on the ship was delicious. The lady's conversation was enjoyable, and perhaps because the weather was nice, the ship didn't sway at all, so I didn't feel seasick. The sea was incredibly beautiful; there's no way it wouldn't look great in photos, all of them turned out amazing. I even got to see a sea turtle, so I was very satisfied.

船上で焼いて貰える肉が挟まったハンバーガーが美味しかった。
お姉さんの喋りも楽しく、気候が良かったのか全く船も揺れず、船酔いもありませんでした。
海も綺麗過ぎる、映えないわけがない、写真が全部神。
ウミガメにも会えたし大満足です。

- The guided tour forced us to snorkel, and the details of the guided experience were unclear.
- When I asked to seat my child in the second row of the vehicle due to motion sickness, I was met with a very unpleasant expression and told to put them in the third row instead.
- I was told that they needed to keep up with the adults at the same speed, even though I have small children.
- When I mentioned that my child would be playing in the shallow water, I was told that was not allowed.
- I said that snorkeling was too difficult for my child and that we would stop midway, and I was met with various comments, ultimately being asked in a very intimidating manner, "Do you understand what I'm saying?" It's unimaginable.
- I pointed out that the voucher and the explanation during the outbound trip did not mention that we had to stay with the guide at all times and that if we didn't snorkel, we couldn't play in the shallow water, but their insistence did not change.
- I cannot recommend this at all for small children.

・ガイド付きツアーで強制的にシュノーケルをさせられる。ガイド付きの内容が不明確。
・往路の車で乗り物酔いする子で子供を2列目の席に座らせたいと言うと凄く嫌な顔をされて3列目にしてと言われる
・小さい子供がいるのに深い所まで大人と同じスピードで着いて来てもらわないと困ると言われる
・子供は浅瀬で遊ばせてますと言うとそれは出来ないと言われる
・子供には難しいのでシュノーケルを途中でやめておきますと言うと、色々言われ、最終的には「私の言っている事がわかるか？」と非常に威圧的な言葉を言われた。考えられない。
・バウチャーや往路の車中の説明にはガイドと終始行動し、シュノーケルをしない場合は浅瀬でも遊べないとの記載等が無いことを指摘したが強行性は変わらず
・小さな子向けにはおすすめ全くできません

We completely enjoyed our tour of this beautiful island. Our guide was amazing. Keyleon He had so much knowledge about the areas he expertly drove us to.
The only negative I found is that most people who took this tour were staying on this island. We did a flight from Oahu to Kauai. We missed our return flight due to slow traffic conditions. If you plan to island hop- make sure you get a later flight off this island or you will spend a huge amount of time in the airport.

I participated on the last day of our honeymoon, and I had a great time seeing so many fish!

The arrangements were quick, and everything went smoothly, allowing us to enjoy the afternoon as well. If I have the opportunity to go to Hawaii again, I would like to request this again!

I would love to get the photos that Dan took; could you please let me know where they are?

ハネムーン最終日に参加させていただきましたが、とてもたくさんの魚を見ることができ楽しかったです！

段取りも早く、スムーズに終わることが出き、午後も楽しむことができました。
またハワイに行く機会がありましたらお願いしたいと思います！

ダンさんが撮っていた写真を頂きたいのですが、どちらにあるんでしたか教えていただけると嬉しいです。

Even with last-minute reservations, you can feel secure as they confirm everything properly via email and phone. I was a bit anxious about the reception location since there was no sign (as mentioned in the reservation confirmation), but following the map sent with the confirmation helped me find it.

It mentioned to arrive 30 minutes early, but I ended up waiting with nothing to do until the start time, so the purpose of the early arrival was unclear.

The snorkeling experience starts with the instructor properly explaining how to handle the equipment, which is reassuring for beginners. I recommend it for those who want to safely try it out nearby. The water wasn't very clear, though.

直前予約でも、メールと電話できちんと確認されるので安心です。
当日の受付場所は、案内版がなくて（ないと予約確認書に書いてあります）不安でしたが、予約確認書に送られてくる地図に従うとたどり着くことができます。
開始30分前に来るようにと書いてあったのですが、何もすることなく開始時間まで待たされて、30分前集合の意図が不明でした。

シュノーケルは、インストラクターがきちんと器具の扱いを含めて説明をしてくれてから始まるので、初心者には安心です。
近場で安全に、とりあえず試してみたいという方にお勧めします。
海は、あまりクリアではありませんでした。

I was lucky to see a Hawaiian monk seal that happened to come to the beach. It was my first time seeing a live monk seal.

I brought a friend who was a complete beginner at snorkeling, but the staff was very helpful, holding their hand and guiding them. My friend said they had a great time and it was a wonderful experience.

ハワイアンモンクシールがたまたまビーチに来ててラッキーでした。初の生モンクシールでした。

シュノーケル全く初心者の友達を連れてのシュノーケルでしたが、手を取って引っ張って頂いて大変お世話になりました。友達も楽しく、いい経験ができたと言ってました。

Enjoyed the show. The entertainment was very good. We paid to be picked up. I am so glad we made that decision. Traffic was bad but our driver Johnny handled it like a pro. Greg checked us in and then narrated the trip. He had a great sense of humor and made the ride very enjoyable. The chief also had a great sense of humor and made the stories very interesting. We were also surprised with flowers for our anniversary. They were all very courteous and made you feel like part of the family. We will definitely go again if we are ever back in Hawaii.

This is my fifth visit to Hawaii after four years, but it was my first time at Hanauma Bay. Having experienced snorkeling in Miyako Island and the Great Barrier Reef, I underestimated it. Perhaps due to my age, I struggled with breathing through my mouth and even got seasick, so I was very grateful for the guide's assistance. The guide held my hand the whole time and helped me see a lot of colorful fish. Because Hanauma Bay is protected by nature, you can observe the fish eating the food stuck to the rocks. Even at over 60 years old, I felt safe with the guide's support. However, I recommend taking motion sickness medication for those who are concerned.

ハワイは4年ぶり5回目になりますが、ハナウマ湾は初めて行きました。
宮古島やグレートバリアリーフでシュノーケルを体験していたので甘く考えていたら、歳のせいか口呼吸は上手くいかず、しかも波酔いまでしてしまいガイドさんに大変お世話になりました。
ガイドさんがずっと手を繋いで案内をしてくださり、色とりどりの魚をたくさん見ることができました。ハナウマ湾は自然が守られているため、魚が岩についた餌を食べている様子を見ることができます。
60歳を過ぎていてもガイドさんがサポートしてくださるので安心です。ただし、心配な方は酔い止めを飲んでの参加をおすすめします。

The food was a buffet, so it felt about right, but the show was amazing! I thought the wait for the food was a bit long. The show was something you have to see when you come to Hawaii; it was truly fantastic!

お料理はブッフェだしこんなもんかなー、という感じでしたが、ショーが最高でした！
料理が出てくるまでの時間が少し長かったかな、と思います。
ショーは、ハワイにきたらこれは見なきゃ！という感じで、とても最高でした！

We went with a group of good friends. We had such a good time. The waves were perfect. Will go again when we are in Oahu.

We participated in our honeymoon trip!

We were the only Japanese people, but there was a Japanese staff member who guided us entirely in Japanese.

It was my husband's first time snorkeling, and he enjoyed it thanks to the thorough explanations provided.

On the boat, everyone was free to relax, and we could drink soft drinks freely. The lunch was also very delicious!

We got to see dolphins and turtles, making it a very satisfying tour! We definitely want to participate again!

新婚旅行で参加しました！

日本人は私たちだけでしたが、日本人のスタッフの方がおり全て日本語で案内して頂きました

旦那がシュノーケリング初めてでしたが、丁寧に説明していただき、楽しんでいました♪

船の上ではみんな自由に過ごしていて、ソフトドリンクも自由に飲め、お昼ご飯もとてもおいしかったです！

イルカと亀にも会えて大満足のツアーでした！
またぜひ参加したいと思います♪

I was afraid of heights, but it wasn't scary at all. It was a really fun time. The weather was great, and I was able to enjoy the view of Waikiki from up high. I definitely want to do it again!

高い所が苦手でしたが、全然怖くなかったです。
とっても楽しい時間でした。
天気も良くて高い所からワイキキを眺めることができてぜひともまたやってみたいです〜

I participated with my wife.

It was a one-hour tour on a small boat. My wife is prone to motion sickness, but this time she didn't feel sick, possibly because the waves weren't high. Since the boat is small and there is some rocking, those who are prone to motion sickness should not forget to take motion sickness medication.

The others on board were at an altitude of 120 meters, while we were at 150 meters, but we didn't feel much of a difference, and there was no difference in the operation either, so the 120-meter option might have been more cost-effective.

There wasn't much fear at high altitude, and I think you can enjoy the scenery slowly! On a clear day, we could see the entire city of Honolulu, and it felt great.

Overall, it was a satisfying tour, but at the end, we were asked for a tip, which was a bit disappointing. I was naturally prepared to give one, so I wanted to do it pleasantly. Well, this might be something that Japanese people often forget to do. I understand that, but because of that, I gave it a four-star rating.

妻と二人で参加しました。

小型のボートで１時間ほどのツアーでした。妻は酔いやすいですが、今回は波が高くなかったのか、酔わず。ボートは小さいのと、揺られる時間もあるので、酔いやすい方は酔い止めをお忘れなく。

同乗した方々は高度120メートル、私たちは高度150メートルでしたが、体感では違いを感じず、また運営でも差がなかったので、高度120メートルの方がコスパが良かったかもしれません。

上空での怖さはあまりなく、ゆっくり景色を楽しめると思います！晴れた日でホノルルの市街地全体が見渡せて、気持ちよかったです。

総じて満足のいくツアーでしたが、最後にチップをせびられ、萎えました。当然に渡そうと準備してたので、気持ちよく渡したかった。。まぁこればかりは日本人は渡しそびれが多いのでしょうね。仕方ない気もしますが、その分四つ星評価といたしました。

I reserved tickets for the show on June 4th (Sunday) the night before using my smartphone and attended. The luau dance was overwhelming. In particular, the fire dance was powerful and breathtaking. There was also hula dancing, and we enjoyed a packed show. The leader's talk was witty and engaging, and he was great at keeping everyone entertained for a long time.

Both my wife and I were very satisfied with the show itself, but we hope for some improvements in the dinner. However, I also think that unless it's a hotel luau dinner show on Oahu, one shouldn't expect much from the food. The dishes listed on the menu were indeed available, but they were served in the typical Hawaiian white plastic containers where everyone serves themselves (similar to the buffet style at Japanese hotel breakfast venues where you line up and walk while picking up food). The quality and taste of the food are best not to be expected too highly. Please consider the show as the main attraction and the dinner as just an addition.

6/4（日）のショーを前日の夜、スマートフォンで予約して参加しました。
ルアウの踊りは圧倒的でした。特に、火の舞は、迫力があり、息をのむほど。
フラダンスもありで、盛沢山のショーを楽しみました。リーダーのトークも軽妙洒脱で、皆を乗せるのがうまく、長い時間を飽きさせない人でした。
妻も私もショー自体にはとても満足しましたが、夕ご飯はもう少し改善してほしいところです。ただ、オアフ島では、ホテルのフラダンス・ディナーショーでもなければ、食べ物に期待してはいけないのだろうとも思います。メニューに書いてあった料理が確かにありましたが、ハワイ特有の白いプラケースに各自が取るスタイルで（日本のホテルのバイキング／ブッフェスタイルの朝食会場で列を作って歩きながら料理をとるパターン）、料理の品質・味は、期待しない方が良いです。あくまでも、ショーがメインで、夕ご飯は付け足し程度に考えてください。

The staff were kind and entertaining. I had a great time until the end. The weather was nice, and when the staff said "look ahead" during snorkeling, I saw a big honu right in front of me. I would like to participate again.

スタッフさんは親切でエンターテイナーですね。
最後まで楽しく過ごせました。
お天気も良く、シュノーケルの時スタッフさんが"前見て"と言うので見たら目の前に大きなホヌが、、
また参加したいと思います。

This excursion was excellent! The crew was phenomenal, the stops made were so much fun and the lunch was great. A fun time was had by all! I would highly recommend!

I couldn't make a reservation on my own, so I asked Beltora, which I'm familiar with. The result was absolutely correct. The transportation, luggage, and procedures were stress-free. And above all, the precise and safe instruction during the transfers and at sea was truly appreciated. Thank you, Chieko and Dan!

個人での予約が出来ず慣れ親しんだベルトラさんに依頼　結果　大正解　移動　荷物　手続き等のストレスフリー　そして何より移動中、また海での的確　安全　なインストラクティング　いゃ〜ありがたかったです
千恵子さん　ダンさん　ありがとうございました

I had an amazing time the Pearl Harbor Arizona Memorial & Honolulu city Tour was more than informative. Our tour guide was awesome and she just knew what she was doing and talking about. I would do it again with her as the tour guide. LEI Thank you for being soooooooooo informative.

The scenery was absolutely stunning, and the horses were very well-behaved. It was a fun tour! I booked a horseback riding tour with transportation included.

【Pickup】
We gathered at the front entrance of the hotel next to the one we were staying at at 8:30 AM. The shuttle bus arrived right on time, and we boarded after confirming our names. I had to show my passport, but it was fine to just present one for the person who made the reservation. The bus was freezing cold! Make sure to bring a long-sleeve shirt! After about a 45-minute ride, we arrived.

【Check-in】
We sat on benches with the other passengers from the bus while a staff member from Kualoa Ranch explained things. Since it was in English, I could hardly understand what was being said, haha. When my name was called, I received a ticket (a flimsy piece of paper about the size of A5). It had the details of the tour I booked and the return bus time. After getting the ticket, we moved to another area for an explanation about the ranch. The staff directed us, saying things like, "Those going on the buggy tour, gather over there!" and "Those on the movie location tour, gather over there!" We received explanations about the meeting places, times, and locations of souvenir shops and cafes. I understood bits and pieces of the words, and then we dispersed until it was time.

【Lockers】
Participants in the horseback riding tour can only bring their smartphones as cameras and minimal belongings; everything else should be stored in lockers. There are plenty of lockers available. They have Japanese support, so I think operating them won't be a problem. It's $5 for the day, and you can open and close them freely!

【Restroom】
I prepared myself for dirty restrooms since it was overseas and at a ranch, but I was pleasantly surprised by how clean they were! The outdoor unisex portable toilets were spacious and completely usable! That was a relief! I recommend using the restroom at the souvenir shop area for water.

【Horseback Riding Tour】
Since we had two hours until our scheduled time, we relaxed in the shade. I wasn't hungry yet and felt a bit sleepy, so I dozed off until it was time. We went to the horseback riding check-in 15 minutes early and signed a consent form. I signed my name in English as it appeared on my passport on a green piece of paper, along with my age in kanji. After that, we watched a short instructional video about horseback riding in Japanese. I put on the helmet I was given. The sizes of helmets for Japanese and foreigners are different, haha. As long as it fits, it was okay, so I ended up wearing a strangely sized helmet, haha. They gave us a small pouch to attach to the saddle, where we could put our cameras and such. By the way, during the instructional video, they said video recording was prohibited, but a Japanese staff member happened to be there and said, "That video is old; it says no recording because big video cameras are dangerous, but small ones like GoPros or phone cameras are fine." Thanks to that, I was able to capture a lot of videos!

Once you get on the horse, you won't get off until you return. We toured the filming locations, but there weren't any detailed explanations; we just understood where we were by looking at the signs. However, the views were breathtaking everywhere, and just riding a horse through such scenery (even though the horses were smart enough to follow the route on their own, haha) was incredibly enjoyable. My horse and my companion's horse kept munching on grass, though, haha.

Before I knew it, two hours had passed, and just as my backside started to hurt, the tour ended. It was so much fun!

【Return Bus】
We had about two hours until the return bus. I was getting hungry, so I had a classic burger, and my companion had loco moco. It was delicious!

For the return bus, we waited outside the cafe where we were instructed when we arrived. As the time approached, people started gathering, and we were called to board. However, whe

景色が最高によくてお馬さんもお利口で、楽しいツアーでした！
送迎付きの乗馬ツアーを予約しました。

【お迎え】
朝8:30に宿泊していたホテルの隣のホテルの正面玄関に集合しました。
時間ぴったりにお迎えのバスが来て、名前の確認をして乗り込みます。
その際パスポートを提示しました。
ツアーを予約した代表者一名分で大丈夫です。
バスの中はすっごい寒いです！長袖持参必須！！
45分程度走って到着しました。

【チェックイン】
乗ってきたバスの乗客の皆さんと共にベンチへ座り、クアロア牧場のスタッフの方が説明をしてくれます。英語なので何を言ってるかほとんどわかりませんでした笑
名前を呼ばれてチケット（という名のA5くらいのペラい紙）を渡されます。
予約したツアーと帰りのバスの時間が書かれています。
チケットをもらったら場所を移動して、牧場の説明を受けます。
バギーの人〜！その人たちはあっちに集合。映画ロケ地巡りツアーの人〜！あなた達はあっちに集合。と、説明されていきます。
集合場所と時間とその他のお土産屋さんやカフェの場所など説明を受けました。単語単語だけなんとなく理解したところで時間まで解散。

【ロッカー】
乗馬ツアーに参加する人はカメラがわりのスマホと最小限の荷物だけを持って他はロッカーにしまいます。
ロッカーはたくさんあります。
日本語対応しているので操作は問題ないと思います。
1日5ドルで開け閉め自由です！

【トイレ】
海外…しかも牧場…
トイレが汚いのを覚悟して行きましたが、拍子抜けするぐらい綺麗でした！
特に外のユニセックスの仮設トイレ？みたいなところは広々としていて、全然問題なく使えました！
助かった！
水道はお土産屋さんのところのトイレを利用するといいと思います。

【乗馬ツアー】
予約時間まで2時間あったので日陰でのんびり待ってました。
お腹もまだ空いていないし、眠たいしでうとうとしている間に時間が来ました。
15分前に乗馬の受付に行き、同意書にサインします。
緑色の紙にパスポートの英語表記の名前、年齢、漢字でサインをしました。
その後日本語で乗馬の簡単なレッスンのビデオを見ました。
渡されたヘルメットを被ります。
日本人の頭と外国の方の頭はサイズが違うので…笑
とりあえず被れればOKということで変なサイズのヘルメットを被りました笑
鞍のツノにつけられる小物入れを渡されますので、その中にカメラなどを入れます。
ちなみに、乗馬の説明ビデオの中でビデオ撮影は禁止、と言われますが日本人スタッフの方がたまたまいて、「あれは古い映像だからビデオの機械が大きいと危ないからダメって言ってるけど、最近の小さいGoProとか携帯のカメラならビデオOK」と言われました。おかげさまでたくさん動画も残せました！

一度馬に乗ったら戻ってくるまで降りることはありません。
ロケ地を巡りますが特に詳しい説明などはなく、立て看板を見てなるほどここがジュラシックワールドのロケ地ね、などと勝手に理解していくタイプです。
ただ、どこをとっても絶景なのでそんな中を自らが操る馬に乗って（といっても馬達はお利口なのでただ乗ってるだけでルートを進んでくれます笑）巡るだけでも十分楽しいと思います。
私と同行者の馬はめちゃくちゃ道草を食べましたが（笑）

あっという間に2時間が経ち、そろそろお尻も痛くなってきた頃ツアーも終わります。
とっても楽しかったです！

【帰りのバス】
帰りのバスまでも2時間程度時間がありました。
流石にお腹も空いてきたので、私はクラシックバーガーを。同行者はロコモコを食べました。美味しかったです！

帰りのバスはカフェの外、来た時に説明を受けたあたりで座って待っていると時間になるにつれてぞろぞろと人が集まってきて呼ばれて乗り込むことになります。
ただ、私たちが行った時は3台のバスが並べられて、どこどこ行きの人はこのバス！どこどこ行きの人はこのバス！とスタッフの方が英語で説明するのを聞いて乗り込む事になります。わからなければチケットに書かれた場所をスタッフの方に見せてどのバスに乗ればいいか聞くといいと思います！
帰りは道が混んでいたので1時間と少しかかって朝の集合場所へ戻ってきました。大体16:30ごろ戻ってきたと思います。

日本の乗馬体験では自分で馬を操るというのはなかなか難しいですが、ヘルメット一つの軽装(？)で自分で馬を操って2時間も歩く乗馬体験は海外ならではですね。
とっても楽しい1日になりました！

First, I took the city bus "The Bus" in Hawaii to the meeting point, but I was about 3 minutes late due to a bus delay. I knew I would be late when I got on the bus, so I contacted them via email. When I arrived, the staff kindly greeted me in Japanese, saying, "That must have been tough, but it's okay!"

Participants who had the same schedule had already gone out to the jet ski area by boat, and I waited at the reception for about 15 minutes. I was able to board a boat that was taking other activity participants to the jet ski area. The boat staff also spoke casually in Japanese.

Once I arrived at the jet ski area, the staff continued to speak kindly in Japanese, joking with me and making me feel that they were considerate about my tardiness, saying, "Don't worry about being late!" They explained how to ride the jet ski and the etiquette in Japanese, so I had no trouble understanding.

The actual jet ski experience was exhilarating, racing across the sea. Although the speedometer showed around 30 kilometers per hour, it felt much faster. The refreshing sensation of speeding under the sun, with ocean spray splashing around, was fantastic. The activity involved repeatedly circling four buoys in a clockwise direction, and it was a great way to enjoy jet skiing. The waves were high that day, causing the jet ski to sway and making it necessary to get used to handling it (I think you could get accustomed to it after 2-3 laps, but it depends on the environment and the person). I rode tandem with my wife, who found it scary after just two laps of driving, so I took over for the rest. While jumping over waves was fun, doing it repeatedly could throw off your balance, which might be a bit scary.

There were about six jet skis participating in the same circuit, maintaining a distance of 20-30 meters apart, with overtaking allowed from the outside. The unique waves created by the jet skis made it difficult to drive if the person in front was too close. When I was driving, a young man in front of me was swerving on purpose, creating irregular waves that made it very hard to steer. I wished he would have followed the etiquette...

By the way, during the ride, a GoPro was mounted on the boat's steering area to take photos and videos. After the tour, when we returned to the reception facility, they showed us the photos, but purchasing them cost over $50.

Overall, it was an unforgettable experience as a marine sport, and the staff were all very kind and attentive, which left a positive impression.

*The goggles they recommend purchasing before riding (for $10) seemed almost unnecessary.*

まず、当日にハワイの市バスの「ザ•バス」での移動で集合場所に向かったが、バス遅延で集合時間に3分ほど遅刻...。バスに乗る時点で遅れることがわかっていたのでメールにて連絡しておいたところ、到着したらすぐに「大変だったね、大丈夫だからね！」と受付の方が日本語で優しく接してくれた。
すでにジェットスキー乗り場のある沖合に、同じ時間の参加者は船で出ており、15分ほど受付で待機。同施設の、他アクティビティ参加者を連れて行くボートに一緒に乗せてもらって乗り場まで移動した。ボートスタッフも日本語で気さくに話してくれた。
乗り場についてからも、日本語で話してくれるスタッフが優しく、冗談なども交えて話しかけてくれ、遅刻したことを「気にしないで！」と配慮してくれていたようにも感じた。ジェットスキーの乗り方、マナーなども日本語でわかるように教えてもらい、何も困らなかった。
実際のジェットスキー体験は海の上を大激走、メーターでは時速30キロ前後ではあったもののかなり体感速度が速く感じた。太陽の下、海洋の上、吹き上がる水飛沫を受けながら走り抜ける爽快感は見事だった。設置された4つのウキを時計回りに周回するのを繰り返すというものだが、ジェットスキーを手軽に楽しめるという点では申し分ない。当日は波が高く、ジェットスキーが大きく揺られたりハンドルをとられたりすることもあり、運転には少し慣れが必要と感じた(2〜3週すれば慣れると思うが、環境や人による)。自分は妻とタンデムで乗ったが、妻は2週だけ運転して怖かったとのことで、残りはずっと自分が運転した。波を越えるのは楽しいが、何度も連続していると体勢を崩してじい、少し怖いかも。
同時に周回するジェットスキー(参加者)は6台ほどで、基本は20〜30m空けて走行、外側からなら追い越し有り。ジェットスキーの走った後は独特な波が生まれるため、前の人が近いと自然に波に揺られることになる。自分が運転した時は、前にいた青年がわざと蛇行運転をし、波が不規則に立ってしまってとても運転しづらかった。マナーは守ってほしかった...。
ちなみに運転中、GoProをボートのハンドル部分中心につけ、写真や動画を撮ってくれる。ツアーが終わって受付の施設に戻ると写真等を見せてくれるが、購入するには50ドル以上のお金がかかった。
全体としては十分に楽しめるマリンスポーツとして最高の思い出となった。とにかくスタッフがみんな優しく丁寧で好感を持てる。
※乗る前に勧められるゴーグル購入(10ドル)は、ほぼ必要ないと思われる。

It was a bit far, but I was able to walk from Waikiki along the sandy beach. I thought it would be scarier, but it was very pleasant! However, the boat sways quite a bit, so it might be tough for those who get motion sickness. You also need to be careful about meals before and after.

The ticket booth was a bit hard to find, but a kind person nearby helped me out.

I don't understand English, but it was totally fine! My mother, who is in her 60s, was also very happy.

少し遠かったですが、砂浜沿いにワイキキから歩いていけました
もっと怖いかと思っていたのですが、とても気持ちよかったです！
ただ、船がかなり揺れるので乗り物酔いのある人にはきついかもしれません。前後の食事にも注意が必要です。
チケットブースが少し分かりづらかったのですが、近隣の親切な人が教えてくださいました。

英語はわかりませんが、全然大丈夫でした！
60代の母もとても喜んでいました。

Had a fantastic time on this tour! Our guides were great - fun and knowledgeable - and made the whole experience worth it! The whole ranch area is absolutely stunning - so picturesque it's hard to know where to look nex whilst trying to concentrate on the path ahead! This quickly became one of our favourite activities and now want an electric bike!!

Had a fantastic time on this tour! Our guide was great - fun and knowledgeable - and made the whole experience worth it! The ocean, river and all around area where we kayaked were beautiful - and the icing on the cake was the abundance of turtles! One of our favourite activities and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone - and wouldn't hesitate to do it again if I was ever lucky enough to return to Oahu!

It was a wonderful show that conveyed the performers' earnest desire to please the audience. It was breathtaking and moving. Thank you.
