All Reviews for Kid Adventures (Ages 8-12)

This experience was wonderful. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They made the entire experience enjoyable and fun.

I had a really good time with my husband!! Perfect date night. The food was delicious and so were the drinks.

The phrase "Angel's Sea" is truly fitting! The scenery was just as beautiful as the name suggests.
The weather and tide play a significant role on the day of your visit. It was great to have a morning with water levels around calf height.

Searching for sea turtles is exhilarating! The boat is impressive, so it was fine to bring a non-waterproof camera.

The guide really pumped up the excitement, so I definitely want to go again!

天使の海とはよく言ったものだ！名前に負けない景色が楽しめました。
当日は天気と潮が関係します。ふくらはぎくらいの水位となる朝が良かったです。

海ガメ探しはテンション上がります！
船は立派なので防水でないカメラを持っていっても大丈夫でした。

ガイドさんが盛り上げてくれるのでまた行きたいです！

We reserved shuttle service. We were waiting at the pick up point from 10min before the pickup time. We couldn't find the shuttle. We were waiting and I called to the office 10min later of pick up time. They said that they yelled out my name, but I didn't hear. They just left. Why not calling to me?
So, I took a taxi to get there with my money. BOB tour was canceld, because of lack of people. So, we joined to another group.
Totally lack of responsibility. I don't trust that they yelled out my name at the pickup point.

Had to take the 1 hour because the 2 hour was booked. 1 hour was nice but book the 2 hour if you can.

This is the second time I've taken this tour and it is a wonderful experience. However, be warned this is NOT a non-smoking tour which we only discovered this second time.

I experienced the famous zip line for the first time!
It rained quite heavily at one point, but the instructor's cheerful talk (I didn't understand the English, but I got the vibe) kept the fun going throughout.
I want to do it again when I go to Hawaii! ^_^

初めて噂のジップラインを体験しました！
途中結構な勢いで雨が降りましたが、雨を気にも留めないインストラクターの方の軽快なトーク(英語わかりませんが雰囲気は伝わりました)で終始楽しめました。
ハワイに行ったらまたやりたいです^_^

We participated in this tour because my husband wanted to try parasailing. As a result, it was really fun! The moment we took off and were lifted by the wind felt like a roller coaster, and while it was scary, it was also exhilarating. It felt like we were birds, and seeing the beautiful scenery of the Hawaiian sea and Diamond Head from above was truly the best feeling, blowing away all my daily worries and stress! I also purchased the photos taken at the end. They were a bit pricey at $30, but I think it's worth it for the memories. I would love to participate again if I have the chance. Thank you!

今回主人のパラセイリングがしたいという希望でこちらのツアーに参加しました。
結果、本当に楽しかったです！
飛ぶ瞬間や風に煽られる瞬間はジェットコースターのようで、怖いながらも爽快感がありました。
鳥になった気分で、空の上からハワイの海やダイヤモンドヘッドなどの美しい景色を臨むのは本当に最高の気分で、日頃の悩みやストレスを一気に吹っ飛ばしてくれました！
最後に撮ってもらった写真も購入しました。
30ドルとちょっと高めですが、思い出や記念には良いと思います。
また機会があれば参加したいと思います。
ありがとうございました。

This was a fun excursion for the kids. You go on a submarine ride about 115 feet down. The tour guide is very entertaining and makes the time go by very fast! He also points out all the fish you are going to see!!

Me and my 3 kids had a great experience snorkeling with Dan. This was our first experience and i had never thought i could go in for straight 35 mins with my kids [our youngest is 6 years old]. I felt i was in safe hands with Dan and did have to worry much about the kids. I will go back to Dan when we visit Hawaii, without a doubt !!

I booked a plan with pick-up service. The tour bus was delayed, and we arrived about 30 minutes late, but we were able to extend our return time a bit, allowing us to fully enjoy our day.
Food and drinks are not allowed inside the park, so there was a baggage check before entry. Once we arrived, we headed straight to the lockers. The lockers are paid (small size: about 1,500 yen). They were a bit tight, just enough to fit two backpacks, but since we could access them freely throughout the day, they were quite convenient.
As for the large pools, there is the only wave pool in Hawaii and a 260-meter lazy river. The wave pool does not have waves at all times, so you need to be mindful of the timing (laughs). The lazy river has a depth of 90 cm, making it safe for small children to enjoy. It might be a bit lacking for adults.
The slides that adults can enjoy were very satisfying. The most fun one was the Tornado. It was a unique slide where you slide down from a height of about 15 meters into a 40-meter giant tornado. Another favorite was the Volcano Express. It’s an exhilarating slide where you slide down on your stomach through a thrilling lava slide filled with curves. Since you go down headfirst, it’s quite intense. You can also race, which adds to the fun.
There was hardly any wait time for any of the slides, so we were able to slide multiple times and fully enjoy our time. The plan also included unlimited drinks, so we took breaks to enjoy Pepsi and Tropicana. For lunch, I had a set of a hamburger and fries for about 1,200 yen.
We were blessed with great weather and had a very enjoyable day.

送迎付きのプランで予約しました。ツアーバスの出発が遅れてしまい、到着も30分ぐらい遅れましたが、帰りの時間も少し遅らせてもらえ、十分遊びつくすことができました。
パーク内には飲食物持ち込み不可なので、入場前に荷物検査がありました。着いたらまずロッカーへ。ロッカーは有料（小サイズ：約1,500円）。リュックサック２個がギリギリ入るかどうかという狭さでしたが、一日中出し入れ自由なので使い勝手は良かったです。
大きなプールとしては、ハワイ唯一という波の出るプールと全長260mの流れるプールがありました。波の出るプールは波が出ていない時間帯もあるのでタイミングに気をつける必要があります（笑）流れるプールは水深が90cmなので、小さなお子様も安心して楽しめます。大人にはちょっと物足りないかも。
大人でも楽しめるスライダーはとても充実していました。一番おもしろかったのはトルネードです。約15mの高さから40mの巨大な竜巻の中を滑り降りるユニークなスライドでした。もうひとつのお気に入りは、ボルケーノ・エクスプレスでした。カーブとスリルが満点の溶岩スライドをうつ伏せになって滑り降りる絶叫スライド。頭から滑り降りるので迫力満点です。競争もできるので楽しいですよ。
どのスライダーも待ち時間はほとんどなく、何度も滑ることができたので、時間内に十分満喫することができました。飲み放題もついたプランだったので、途中でペプシとかトロピカーナを飲んで休憩してました。お昼は、ハンバーガーとポテトのセットで約1,200円。
天気にも恵まれとても楽しい一日でした。

A little while ago, I thought it would be great to see whales, so I signed up for a tour.

On the day of the tour, the weather was nice and perfect for cruising, but the sunlight was so strong that it almost blinded me, haha.

As for the whales, I encountered them about five times, just barely seeing their heads in the distance. I really wanted to see them jump, but I guess that's just a matter of luck.

少し前ですが、せっかくなのでクジラを見てみたい！と思い申し込みました。

当日は天気もよく、クルージング日和でしたが、
日差しが強すぎて目が潰れそうでした笑

肝心のクジラは、遠くに頭が気持ち見える程度に、5回くらい遭遇。
ほんとはジャンプが見たかったですが、こればかりは運なのでしょうがないですね。

This was our first time zip lining. Had a great time! I am afraid of heights, but this is great! The people running the course were great. Would go again.

After having dinner, we watched the show. The meat at dinner was very delicious. We were able to watch the show from a very good seat, right in the middle of the front row of the VIP section, and we even got to take photos and have a handshake. Personally, I enjoyed the fire dance the most. Although we weren't very familiar with songs by Elvis or Michael Jackson, we had a great time. However, if you participate, it might be even more enjoyable if you do some preparation in advance. The location is also within the Royal Hawaiian Center, which is easily accessible, so if you have the time, I definitely recommend joining.

ディナーを頂いてから、ショーを見るという流れでした。
ディナーはお肉がとてもおいしかったです。
ショーについてはVIP席の中でも真ん中の最前列という非常にいい席でみることができ、写真や握手もしてもらえました。
個人的にはファイヤーダンスが一番楽しかったです。
私たちはエルビスやマイケルジャクソンの曲などをあまり知らなかったですが、十分楽しむことができましたが、参加する際は、事前に予習しておくと更に楽しめるかもしれません。
場所もロイヤルハワイアンセンター内でアクセスもよく、時間があればぜひ参加してもらえればと思います。

I enjoyed turtle watching, beach volleyball, and other activities that I don't usually get to do. The weather was a bit disappointing, but I had a great time playing and felt like a child again. The sound of the experienced old man's guitar was also fantastic!

　亀のウォッチング、そして、ビーチバレーと普段できない遊びを楽しませていただきました。
　天気は多少残念でしたが、童心に帰って楽しく遊ばせていただきました。
　老練のおじさんのギター片手のサウンドも最高でした！！

I had a hard time finding a good restaurant in Waikiki, but after making a reservation online this time, I found it to be tastier than I expected. I invited a friend, and I'm glad they enjoyed it.

なかなかワイキキで美味しい店に今まで巡り会えず、今回事前ネット申込で行ってみたら、思ったより美味しく知り合いを招待したのですが、喜んでもらえてよかったです。

On my second trip to Hawaii, I wanted to enjoy more than just the beach, so I joined this tour.

Once on the horse, you have to control it mostly by yourself. About 15 of us form a line, but there are only three staff members scattered in the front, back, and middle, so it can be quite challenging if your horse strays from the line! (Before riding, they show you an instructional video.)

I was lucky that the foreign lady in front of me was experienced with horseback riding. When my horse tried to stray off the path to eat grass, she gave me advice on how to hold the reins, which made me feel more confident even when the staff weren't around.

As I got used to it, I was able to enjoy the scenery, and it was a lot of fun!

You can also reach Kualoa Ranch by bus from Waikiki!

2度目のハワイではビーチだけではない
ハワイの自然を満喫したいと思い
このツアーに参加しました

馬に乗せてもらったら後はほぼ自力で
馬を操らなくてはいけません。
15人くらいで列になって進みますが
スタッフは前後ろ真ん中らへんと３人しか
付いてくれませんので、
馬が列から逸れてしまったりすると大変です笑
(乗る前には説明ビデオを見せてくれます)

私は運良く前の外国人のおば様が
乗馬慣れしてる方だったらしく
私の馬が道から逸れて草を食べようとしたりすると
手綱の持ち方のアドバイスをくれたりしてくれたので
スタッフが周りにいなくても心強かったです笑

慣れてきたら風景も楽しめるようになって
とても楽しかったです！

クアロアランチまでは
ワイキキからバスでもいけますよ！

I was able to see wild dolphins swimming in a pod for the first time. I also got to see sea turtles up close in the water... it was moving. The hamburger for lunch was delicious too!

The group I joined consisted entirely of Japanese customers. Perhaps because of that, a Japanese female crew member was there from the pickup, which made me feel at ease. I participated at the end of June, and since it was quite windy, I followed the advice of the Japanese female crew member and borrowed a wetsuit over my rash guard. As a result, the water temperature was comfortable, and I didn't feel too cold while on the boat.

By the way, it might be good to have a chamois towel (which you can use to wipe off most of the moisture and can be reused if you wring it out towards the sea) and a dry beach towel (to use as much as possible without getting wet, draping it over your back) with you. The air conditioning on the return bus is strong too...

初めて野生のイルカが群れをなして泳ぐところを見ることができました。ウミガメも海の中で、至近距離で見ることができ・・・感動。
ランチのハンバーガーも美味しかったです！

私が参加したグループは日本人のお客さんばかりでした。それもあってか？日本人女性のクルーがピックアップの時点からいてくださっていて、安心でした。
参加したのは6月末ですが、風が強かったこともあり、日本人女性クルーのアドバイスに従ってラッシュガードの上からさらにウェットスーツを借りて着ました。結果、海の水温もそれで心地よく、船上に上がっている時もあまり寒くありませんでした。
ちなみに、セームタオル一本（これで主な水分を拭き取る。海に向かって絞れればまた使えるので便利）と、乾いたビーチタオル（なるべく最後まで濡らさず背中にかけたりして使う）があると良いかもしれません。
帰りのバスも、冷房が強いですので・・・。

This was totally awesome and everyone should do it if they get the chance. It was so great because you have a chance to actually look around without worrying about snorkel equipment!!! For me that's a big deal. So much fun!! I highly recommend doing this.

I challenged myself to 120 meters. It had a sufficient height and felt quite long! The wind was refreshing, and it was a lot of fun. The boat sways quite a bit, so motion sickness medication is a must!

120Mに挑戦しました。十分な高さがあり時間も結構長く感じました！風が気持ちよくてとても楽しかったです。船が結構揺れるので酔い止めは必須です！

Beautiful location and no crowds. We loved having kayaks and paddleboards to use leisurely.
It was better than we had expected.

In addition to fish, I was able to see sunken ships and airplanes on the seabed, which made me feel like I was exploring the ocean floor, and it was a lot of fun. I also encountered sea turtles and sharks. It's a shame I didn't get to see any whales! Unlike going into the sea, there's no need to change clothes, so it's easy to participate.

魚以外にも、海底に沈んだ船や飛行機を見ることができ、海底を探検してるような気分でとても楽しかったです。ウミガメやサメにも遭遇することができました。クジラには出会えず残念！海に入るのと違い、着替えたりしなくていいので気軽に参加できていいですね。

Some were apprehensive about diving under the helmet to get into it but after that it's amazing as you get to see fishes and even turtles up close. You also get a fish food sponge to lure scads of fishes to you - just be careful to keep your fingers out of the way, or you may get a nibble! The safety divers guide your scooter and show you where to go (and some take video for sale later). The only possible discomfort may be if you don't equalize the pressure as you dive or ascend - this can be done several ways (such as swallowing or yawning - I couldn't get the "pinch nose and blow" method to work). Otherwise it's a blast. You also get to hang around a bit - on the boat or swimming or snorkeling - while the other groups are on the scooters.

This activity allows you to enter the pool with dolphins and touch them directly. My 3-year-old was scared and needed to be held, but they were able to touch the dolphin and even give it a kiss on the cheek. My 5-year-old was totally fine with it. We planned to buy photos later, thinking that just the kids' pictures would be enough, but unexpectedly, Dad had a smile we had never seen before while kissing the dolphin, so we ended up buying the photo (laughs). After the dolphin pool, there is plenty of time to explore the park at a leisurely pace. The kids were really into the area where they could feed lettuce to the fish.

イルカと同じプールに入水して、イルカに直に触れられるアクティビティです。３歳の子は怖がってしまい、抱っこしながらでしたがイルカに触って、ほっぺにキスもできました。５歳の子は平気です。写真を後で購入するのですが、子供の写真だけで十分！と思っていたら、まさかのパパが見たことないくらいの笑顔でイルカとキスをしていたので、写真買ってしまいました（笑）イルカのプール後も十分時間があるので、園内ゆっくりみてまわれます。魚にレタスをあげられるコーナーに子供がハマっていました。

We participated as a couple. I convinced my wife, who can't swim, to challenge herself by entering the 5.2-meter pool with the paid option called Shark Trek, where you swim with sharks. However, unfortunately, the day we attended was Keiki Day, Hawaii's Children's Day, and many attractions were canceled, so we couldn't take on the challenge. The only thing we could participate in was an attraction where we could touch dolphins from outside the pool, which was included in our reservation. The park is small and has few attractions, so we just had lunch and took a nap at the food court. I wish the reservation page clearly indicated which attractions were available and which were not. It turned out to be a wasted and disappointing day in Hawaii.

夫婦で参加しました。泳げない妻を説得し、有料オプションのシャーク・トレックというサメの泳ぐ5.2ｍのプールへ入っていくことに挑戦しするための参加でした。しかし、最悪にも参加日がケイキ・デ―というハワイの子供の日で、色々なアトラクションが中止で挑戦することが出来ませんでした。唯一、予約に入っていたプールの外からイルカを触るアトラクションに参加できただけでした。パークとしては小さくアトラクションも少ないので、あとは、フードコートで昼食と昼寝しかしませんでした。予約ページの中にアトラクションは何が出来て、出来ないものは何かをはっきりと表示して欲しかった。ハワイでの無駄で悪い思い出となった1日でした。

I had a great time playing volleyball at the sandbar and seeing sea turtles! The snorkeling was a bit different from what I imagined, maybe because it rained the day before?! The staff member was very energetic and friendly, and she took a lot of wonderful photos for us, which was great! The hamburger we had on the boat was very delicious! There are various tours available, but I'm glad I chose this one!!

サンドバーでバレーボールをしたり、
ウミガメを見たり、とてもたのしかったです！
シュノーケルは、想像とはちょっと違いましたが、
、前日に雨が降ったからかな？！
スタッフのお姉さんはとてもパワフルで、親しみやすく、素敵な写真をたくさん撮っていただいたり、よかったです！
船の上で食べたハンバーガーがとてもおいしかったです！
色んなツアー？がありますが、こちらのツアーにしてよかったです！！

I had a great time. It was a good workout. There were so many activities that I never got bored. Also, the foreign staff member was really handsome and friendly. (laughs)

とっても楽しかったです。いい運動になりました(^^) 色んなのがあって飽きなかったです。あと、スタッフの外人の方がとってもイケメンで親切です。(笑)

I'm really glad I participated in this tour. I chose the plan with a Japanese-speaking guide, who was very kind, and kayaking was fun, with beautiful seas that were just amazing.

I had free time in the morning and kayaking in the afternoon. During the free time, I quickly rented a bike and headed to Lanikai Beach. It took about 10 minutes by bike from the kayak rental base, so I enjoyed cycling there. As expected, it was definitely much cleaner and clearer than Waikiki, with fine sand that made me think, "This is what a Hawaiian beach is all about!"

In the afternoon, after learning the basics of kayaking, I took the kayak out to sea. While the round trip might be challenging, kayaking was so much fun. Paddling to a deserted island with my wife was a great experience. We were also lucky enough to see seabirds and a sea turtle with the guide's explanations on the deserted island!

Since my wife wanted to go to Lanikai Beach (the "Heavenly Sea"), it was great that we could include it in this tour, making it a win-win situation.

Also, the pizza for lunch was delicious.

このツアーは参加して本当に良かったです。私が参加したのは日本語ガイド付きのプランでしたが、その方も親切でしたし、カヤックも楽しくて、海も綺麗で最高でした。
　
私は午前中が自由時間、午後がカヤックでした。午前の自由時間では、すぐに自転車を借りてラニカイビーチに向かいました。カヤックを借りる拠点から自転車で10分程度だったため、楽しくサイクリングしながら着きました。例に漏れずワイキキよりも断然綺麗で透き通ったビーチで、砂もサラサラで、これぞハワイのビーチ！と思わせる場所でした。
午後のカヤックも一通り操作を教えてもらったら、カヤックを連れて海へ。確かに往復のカヤック移動は大変かもしれませんが、それ以上にカヤックが楽しかったです。無人島まで奥さんと一緒に漕いだのは良い経験になりました。また無人島でもガイドさんの説明付きで、運が良かったのか海鳥？やウミガメも見れました！
　
奥さんが、「ラニカイビーチ（天国の海）」に行きたい！と言っていたので、このツアーで組み込めたので、一石二鳥でした。
　
あと、お昼ごはんはピザが美味しかったです。

My wife said she wanted to go parasailing, so we joined this tour. Regarding this tour, none of the driver, reception, or boat staff spoke Japanese. However, the staff were accustomed to Japanese customers, and we were able to enjoy the parasailing experience without any major issues.

On the boat, lively music played, and participants took turns flying into the sky. Even while waiting for our turn, it was fun just watching others soar. I still remember the exhilarating moment when I actually took off into the air. While flying steadily, I could see the distant condominiums of Oahu, and it really hit me that we were in Hawaii. My wife and I both felt, "I'm so glad we came," and we were truly satisfied. After touching the water a few times and going up and down, we returned to the boat. Be sure to wear a swimsuit when participating.

*Points of concern:*
- I had reserved for 120 meters in advance, but it seemed like the staff were raising us based on their own judgment? The participants didn’t feel much difference in height, so I think either 90 meters or 120 meters would be sufficient.
- The staff will take commemorative photos on a 1G SD card. I think it was around $20 or $30 to purchase. My wife really wanted it, so we bought it, but I thought they could have lowered the price a bit since there was some dirt on the lens.
- The boat moves at quite a fast speed. If you're prone to seasickness, be sure to take motion sickness medication beforehand.

奥さんが「パラセイリングしたい」と言っていたため、このツアーに参加。
このツアーに関しては、運転手、受付、船上スタッフ全員日本語が通じませんでした。ただ、スタッフも日本人に慣れており、特に問題なくパラセイリング体験出来ました。
　
船上ではノリの良い音楽が掛かり、次々と参加者が空に飛んでいきます。順番が回ってくるまでも、参加者が飛んでる様子を観るだけで楽しかったです。実際に飛んでみても、勢い良く空を飛ぶ瞬間は今でも覚えてます。また安定して空を飛行している時は、遠くオアフ島のマンション群を観ながら、ハワイに来たんだと実感出来て、奥さんと二人で「来て良かったね」と本当に満足できました。海に何度か着水させて、上下させた後、船に戻ります。必ず水着着用で参加しましょう。
　
※気になった点
・事前に120m、で予約していましたが、船上のスタッフは感覚で空に上げている様子？で、参加したメンバーで高さの違いは感じられませんでした笑　90mか120mの申込で十分だと思います。
・スタッフが1GのSDカードに記念写真を撮ってくれます。確か20ドルか30ドルくらいで買い取りが出来た気がします。奥さんがどうしても欲しいとのことで買い取りましたが、もうちょっと値下げしてくれても良いかな、っと思いました笑　レンズにゴミが付いてたので。
・結構早い速度で船が移動します。船酔いが気になる人は、必ず酔い止め薬を服用しておきましょう。

Hawaii after 38 years!
Touching the cute dolphins and swimming while holding onto their bodies was the best healing experience!
It left a strong impression on me.
Next time, I want to swim with two dolphins!

38年ぶりのハワイ！
可愛いイルカに触れ合い、体に捕まり身を任せ泳いだのは
最高の癒しです！
とても印象に残りました。
次回は、2頭のイルカと泳ぎたいですね～
