All Reviews for Kid Adventures (Ages 8-12)

Our guides were amazing and the views from the zip line were phenomenal. It was awesome that there were pictures taken by the staff along the way so we didn't have to risk our own phones. 100% would recommend to future travelers.

We had this Snorkeling Adventure June1988 on our Honeymoon. We are Happy Uncle Bob’s Snorkeling Adventure 36 years later our Honeymoon with our 2 kids to share our Love June 2024.
Looking forward to do this again with our grandkkds someday.
Awesome crew. Perfect Sandbar
Thank you for the Memories♥️♥️

The family enjoyed the vacation and the tour was a very big educational part of it.

I have never surfed before and I probably won't in the future, so I decided to join this experience to feel that vibe casually. The speed was much slower than I imagined, and I didn't feel scared at all. Watching the people surfing on the same waves and being able to ride the waves together was fun and made me feel like a surfer. However, it ended in no time. It would be nice if it were a bit cheaper.

サーフィンをした事が無く、今後もできそうもないので、気軽にそんな気分になれそうなこちらに参加しました。
想像よりもスピードはゆっくりで、全く怖さはありませんでした。同じ波にサーフィンしている人達を見て、一緒に波に乗れたのは、サーファー気分で楽しかったです。
しかし、あっという間に終わりでした。もう少し安価だといいですね。

First, we enjoyed a buffet together, and then we moved on to watch the Rock-a-Flash show! When Michael Jackson's song played, I got really excited (laughs).

最初にみなさんでビュッフェをいただいてから、移動してロック・ア・フラショーを鑑賞しました！マイケルジャクソンの歌がかかったときは、テンション上がりました（笑）

The instructor and driver spoke Japanese, and it was so much fun! I experienced several activities in Hawaii, but this was the most enjoyable and memorable tour!

インストラクター兼ドライバーの方が日本語を話せる方で、すごくすごく楽しかったです！ハワイでいくつかアクティビティの体験をしましたが1番楽しくて思い出のツアーになりました！

Our family had a great time on our ATVs. Come in the morning as it is HOT in the sun. And be prepared to get dirty so bring a change of clothes for afterwards. Instructors were super attentive and took lots of pictures which you can opt to purchase. You’re a drive from Shark’s Cove and local food trucks on the North Shore so we made a day of it. Our teenage boys loved this experience!

This was a great experience. The performers and all staff were professional and made sure we had a good time. Food portions were perfect so that we weren't super stuffed but full enough. Beautiful food presentation. Hats off to the culinary team and chef!!!! This was a memorable experience and the interactive dance for everyone at the end was a perfect way to end the dinner cruise. Only one recommendation would be to have air conditioning in the boat. Other than that, the night was amazing!!

First of all, in conclusion, I'm glad I went! It was definitely a great experience!

The vast nature of Kualoa Ranch offers a dynamic and breathtaking scenery that you can't experience in Japan, and you can enjoy various views while riding the buggy :)

During the buggy tour, there was no Japanese guide, but after arriving at Kualoa Ranch, a Japanese staff member provided an overall introduction, so you can rely on them if you have any issues!

There is a Japanese video for the pre-tour instructions, so it's okay if you don't speak English.

During the tour, the guide spoke only English, but it's manageable with simple English, so those who are anxious about their English skills should still be able to enjoy it :)

All the guides were very kind and attentive.

Now, here are some points I would like future participants to keep in mind:

- Avoid wearing white or clothes that show dirt easily. During the one-and-a-half-hour ride, there is a lot of dust, so it's essential to wear clothes that can get dirty.

- Bring a towel and cleansing sheets, and it's recommended for women to go without makeup. As mentioned, you'll be covered in dust, and after the tour, you'll be hilariously dirty. There is a handwashing station right after getting off, but if the shuttle bus schedule is tight, you probably won't have time to wash thoroughly. So, after rinsing off a bit at the handwashing station, it's best to wipe your face and neck thoroughly with sheets in the car on the way back!

- Sun protection is important. It's a good idea to apply sunscreen or wear long sleeves (the buggies have no windows, so you'll be exposed to both dust and UV rays while riding!).

- Bring non-woven masks. You can get a bandana (for covering your nose and mouth) at the tour reception, but a non-woven mask is much better for dust.

- Please bring water. The tour lasts an hour and a half, with stops at scenic points for the guide's explanations, but it can get hot, so it's even better if you can hydrate regularly.

- Eating and drinking are prohibited on the shuttle bus, so you can have lunch at Kualoa Ranch. There are also souvenirs for sale, so you can enjoy the time between the tour and the shuttle.

If you're hesitating, definitely go for it! Fans of Jurassic Park will surely enjoy it too!!

まず、結論としては行って良かった！
とにかく良い経験になりました！

クアロアランチの広大な自然は、
日本では味わえないダイナミックさと絶景で
バギーでぐるっと回って色んな景色を楽しめます :)


バギーツアー中、
日本語ガイドさんは居ませんでしたが
クアロアランチ到着後は
まず、日本語スタッフさんが全体の案内をしてくださったので
何か困った時は頼りになります！

ツアー前の注意事項は、
日本語ビデオがあるので英語が出来なくても大丈夫

ツアー中は
英語オンリーのガイドさんでしたが、
簡単な英語でどうにかなるので
英語に不安がある方も楽しめるはず :)

ガイドさん達はどなたも
とても親切に色々気にかけてくださいました


ここからは
これからツアー参加される方へ参考にしてもらいたい点


・白い服、汚れが目立つ服は×
1時間半の走行中は砂埃がすごいので、
汚れてもOKなお洋服で参加は必須

・タオル＋クレンジングシートの持参と
女性は、すっぴん推奨
上記同様、砂埃をまともに被るので、
ツアー終了後は笑えるほど真っ黒になります。笑
降車後すぐの所に手洗い場はありますが
送迎バスの時間がタイトな場合があるので、
しっかり洗う余裕はきっとありません
なので、ある程度手洗い場で洗い流したら帰りの車内でお顔や首など徹底的にシートで拭くのがベストです！

・紫外線対策
日焼け止めをしっかり塗っていくか長袖着用がいいかも
（バギーは窓がないので
走行中は砂埃も紫外線とまともに浴びます！）

・不織布マスクなどの持参
ツアーの受付でもらえるバンダナ（鼻・口を覆う用）がありますが
砂埃には不織布マスクの方が俄然いいです

・水分持って行ってください
1時間半、絶景ポイントで降りてガイドさんの説明を受けながらのツアーですが
暑さで喉が乾くので都度水分摂取が出来ると尚良いですね

・送迎バスは、飲食禁止なので
ランチなどはクアロアランチ内で頂けます
お土産も売っているのでツアーと送迎の合間時間も楽しめます



迷われてる方はぜひ！
ジュラシックパーク好きな方も楽しめるはず！！

We had Cousin Elaine and she went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and enjoyed our tour. She taught us a lot about the culture and history of the islands. She made the tour more personal by remembering our names and by calling us her ohana. This was one of the best tours I’ve been on, we got to stop and see a lot of the northern part of the island.

The Royal Hawaiian Center is quite spacious, so I struggled to reach the fourth floor, but I managed to arrive a bit early. Since I had made a reservation in advance, I showed my passport at the counter for identification and completed the check-in. Communication in Japanese wasn't very smooth, but I was somehow guided to my seat at the buffet-style dining area. I received a welcome drink and was greeted with Hawaiian dance, allowing me to feel the atmosphere of Hawaii.

As it was buffet-style, participants were called in turn to serve food onto their plates and then return to their seats to eat. Being a buffet, I could choose as much of my favorite dishes as I wanted. The roast beef was cut by the chef from a large chunk of meat. All the dishes were delicious, but the pineapple served at the table was the best. To enjoy the tropical vibe, I ordered a Chi Chi drink. The dining time was set longer, allowing me to finish my meal comfortably.

When it was time for the show, the staff guided us to our seats, and the show began. The stage was spacious, and the lighting was professional. The venue was lively with performances by impersonators of Elvis and Michael, hula dancing by dancers, and ethnic performances involving fire. Elvis even came down to the audience during the show and shook hands with us, which made me laugh because he looked so much like the real Elvis. He brought laughter to the audience with his talk at various points. Although I didn't understand much English, the enjoyable time flew by, and it was a very satisfying show. This is not just a hula dance show; it incorporates advanced Hawaiian elements into the entertainment, so those participating should keep that in mind.

ロイヤルハワイアンセンターは広い為、4階にたどり着くのに苦労したが、何とか時間前に到着。事前予約していたので、カウンターで本人確認の為パスポートを見せて受付完了。日本語でのコミュニケーションは、あまり上手に伝わらなかったが、何とかバイキング形式の席に案内され着席。ウェルカムドリンクをもらう。ハワイアンダンスの歓迎を受け、ハワイの雰囲気を感じることができた。バイキング形式の為、参加者は順番に呼ばれて料理を皿に盛り、席に戻って食事。バイキングなので好きな料理を好きなだけチョイス。ローストビーフは大きな肉の塊からシェフが切ってくれた。どの料理も美味しかったが、テーブルに出されていたパイナップルが一番だった。南国気分を味わう為ドリンクはチチを注文。食事の時間は長めに設定されていて、余裕をもって完食。ショーの時間になると係の人が席に案内してくれてショーがスタート。ステージも広く照明も本格的。エルビス.マイケルらのそっくりさんによる歌、ダンサーによるフラダンス、火を使った民族的な出し物などで会場は大いに盛り上がった。エルビスはショーの途中、観客席まで降りて来て握手までしてくれた。よく似ているので、笑ってしまった。所々トークで会場に笑いをもたらしていた。（自分はあまり英語の理解ができなかったが）楽しいひと時はあっという間だったが、大満足のショーだった。フラダンス主体のショーではなく、先進的なハワイ要素を取り込んだエンターテイメントなので参加される方はお間違えなく。

In the early morning at Hanauma Bay, I never expected it to be this cold. I did go into the water once, but it was so cold that I gave up quickly. I was really shocked that there were hardly any fish around. When I visited in the past, it was in the afternoon, so it was warm and there were plenty of fish to enjoy! Is there no tour available in the afternoon? I felt that it has become increasingly difficult to enter Hanauma Bay lately. The driver was kind and stopped by Leonard's Kitchen for us on the way back.

早朝にハナウマ湾へ
まさかこんなに寒いとは思ってもみませんでした。
一回は海に入ったものの寒すぎてすぐにギブ。
魚もほとんど見当たらなくめちゃショック。
過去に訪れた時はお昼からだったので暖かかったのか魚もたくさんいて楽しめたのに！
お昼からのツアーは無いのでしょうか？
最近はますますハナウマ湾に入るのが難しくなってきてることを実感しました。
ドライバーの方は親切で帰りにカハラモールにあるレナーズキッチンカーに寄ってもらいました。

I felt very relieved to participate in the tour as Japanese was also understood. The sandbar was about knee-deep, but the scenery was beautiful and it was the best. It was a bit disappointing that it rained in the morning, making the water a little murky, but the sea was still beautiful. The hamburger we ate on the water was also very delicious.

日本語も通じて非常に安心してツアーに参加できました。
サンドバーでは膝ぐらいでしたが、景色も綺麗で最高でした。
当日朝が雨で少し水が濁っていて残念でしたが、綺麗な海でした
海上で食べるハンバーガーもとても美味しかったです

Overall outstanding!!!!!!!!!! Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome view!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This zip line course is the real deal! Not only they have 8 individual zip lines, but each has it's character and unique feature. We really loved to do different tricks, and also enjoyed some very long zip lines that we haven't experienced anywhere else.

Guides were fun and very helpful, and had 'super human' abilities whenever someone was stuck on a line.

We will definitely come again next time we are visiting the island!

Awesome activity! This is my second time booking captain bob’s and I can’t tell you enough how great it is, you would need to experience it for yourself! From the start, the staff are very welcoming and keep you entertained throughout the entire experience. They take the time to go around to chat with everyone, making it a comfortable excursion. Although they don’t do anything specific for birthdays, they still made sure to sing her a happy birthday! Book it, you won’t regret it!

Just considering the line of cars waiting from early morning and the queue for entry, you can already see the value of the tour. There’s no competition for reservations, making it easy to plan. Additionally, there are some insider tips, and the specialists share insights about the highlights and features of Hanauma Bay that we would never discover or experience on our own. For those who are familiar with Hanauma Bay and may visit multiple times in the future, I highly recommend experiencing this at least once. The ocean is truly wonderful, as are the two of you. Until we meet again, mahalo.

早朝から順番待ちの車の列と、入園待ちの列を考えたら、それだけでもツアーの価値が分かります。予約争奪戦も有りませんので、予定が立てやすい。更に裏ワザがちらほらあり、見どころスポやハナウマ湾の特徴などの、スペシャリストだから知る物を教えて下さり、私たちだけ頑張っても決して分からない、体験出来ない経験です。ハナウマ湾へ行きなれた、これからも複数回行くかも知れない人は、1度体験をオススメします。とても素晴らしい海とお二人です。またお会いする日までマハロ

Last year, I was able to enjoy a horseback riding course that featured scenery from movie filming locations, and I was looking forward to it again this year. However, this year, it ended up being just a two-hour ride along a mountain path, which was disappointing. The people in my riding group were similarly frustrated and said they didn't want to participate again. Is it the instructor who decides the course? Was it just bad luck this year? If possible, please let me know.

昨年は、映画ロケ地の景色も楽しめるコースを乗馬することができ、今年も楽しみに申込したところ、今年は山道を、ひたすら2時間乗馬するだけで終わってしまいガッカリでした。一緒に乗馬したグループの人達も同様に不満を爆発しており、2度と参加したくないと言っていました。コースを決めるのは、インストラクターが決めるのですか。今年は運が悪かっただけなのですか。よかったら教えてください。

I enjoyed the beautiful sea at Sandbar. We also saw sea turtles while sailing, and we were able to see sea turtles while snorkeling as well. The hamburgers were delicious, and the weather was great.

サンドバーではキレイな海を楽しめました。また、航行中にウミガメも見れて、シュノーケリングでもウミガメを見ることができました。ハンバーガーも美味しく、天気にも恵まれてよかったです。

Amazing guides, beautiful scenery and A lot of fun zipping around on the ATVs. Learnt a lot and made special memories.

The weather was nice and the scenery was amazing. I thought we would be able to run around more freely, but we had to ride in a line. Since there were two couples sharing one vehicle, it would have been better to split the reservations and have one vehicle for each couple. The dust at the back of the line was intense, so wearing clothes that can get dirty is a must. The distance we traveled was sufficient.

天気も良く景色は最高でした。もっと自由に走り回れるのかと思っていましたが、隊列を組んでの走行でした。二人カップル二組で一台だったので、申し込みを分けて二人で一台にすれば良かったです。隊列の後ろの方は砂ぼこりが凄いので、汚れて良い服装は必須ですね。走行距離は充分でした。

Snorkeling and scuba diving can be quite challenging, so I participated in a submarine tour where I could easily see the fish underwater. The water was very clear, and I could see the fish gathering around the reefs well. It was a highly satisfying tour.

シュノーケリングやスキューバダイビングはハードルが高いので、気軽に海中の魚を見ることができる潜水艦ツアーに参加しました。海水の透明度が高く漁礁に集まる魚が良く見え、満足感の高いツアーでした。

My guests from Japan and I had a great time! Our tour guide was so funny & knowledgeable. Weather and the views of the windward side of Oahu were beautiful! A visit to Kualoa Ranch is a must when visiting Hawai’i.

Great experience family 1st time snorkeling guide funny and made you feel comfortable in the water

Easy to book, so nice they have the pick up / drop off so you can enjoy your evening safely!

Avoid the lines and get them ahead, so easy and they make sure you got the QR code!

The champagne toast was so fun for an anniversary evening, we loved our night!

The crowds dont lie! Our family loved this experience as you get the ATV thrill alongside the experience of the ranch!

Great evenings, lots of laughter and fun learning experiences in the beginning that was a fun way to start the luau!

perfect pair after a relaxing pool day, delish cuisine and lots of fun happening on board!
