All Reviews for Baby Friendly (Ages 0-2)

We really enjoyed ourselves on this dinner cruise! The entertainment was great as well as the food! The view of the city from the cruise ship was beautiful. We would definitely do it again!

My husband and I loved captain bobs..!!! The whole crew was great and had such great energy. My husband and I will definitely be doing this again.

We just wanted to get out of Waikiki for half a day and this was the perfect tour. Jarod our tour guide was 100% local and had so much interesting local knowledge to impart. Took us to some great locations. Only thing I would say was a slight negative was that the jeep is probably not that comfortable for 4 adults. Initially it was just my partner and myself and we were so excited but then picked up another 2 males - so was fairly crammed in back seat. Would have liked it to be topless as well.

The clear blue pacific didn't disappoint. An abundance of fish and of course the stunning turtles. Capt. Rich, Michelle and Austin got us to were we needed to be safely and with a lot of fun. Genuinely nice people as well. Made us feel special on our 20th wedding anniversary. Would go on an adventure with them without hesitation. Highly recommend.

The weather was great with clear skies, and as soon as the boat set off, we saw turtles!! It was a quick ride to the sandbar, so I didn't feel seasick at all. The water was incredibly clear, and the guides were very friendly. Also, while waiting for our turn to snorkel, we could use free inflatable rings and paddleboards.

天候に恵まれ晴天で、船が出てすぐに亀が！！
サンドバーまでは船ですぐだったので全く船酔いもしなかったです。
海の透明度もすごいですし、ガイドさんたちもすごくフレンドリーでした。
また、シュノーケルの順番を待っている間も無料で貸し出しの浮き輪やパドルサーフィンもできました。

I felt like I waited quite a while before we set sail. Since it was a large ship, the view from the deck was wonderful. However, whales didn't appear for a long time, and when they finally did, it was from quite a distance. During my last trip in January, I was able to see mother and baby whales up close, so I was a bit disappointed and thought it was just bad luck this time. The cruise, with the whales not showing up, felt a bit slow, and some people were resting because they were tired. I experienced a bit of seasickness from the slow-moving ship, so I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take medication beforehand.

出港までに随分と待たされた印象でした。
大型船でしたので、デッキからの眺めは素晴らしいものでした。ただ、なかなか鯨が現れず、現れてもかなり遠いところからの見学となりました。前回、1月に参加した際には近い距離で親子鯨を見ることができましたので、期待外れとその時の運だと思いました。鯨がなかなか現れない中でのクルーズは、やや中弛みし疲れて休んでいる人もいらっしゃいました。ゆっくりと進む船に少々船酔いしましたので、酔い安い方は事前に薬を飲むことをオススメします。

What a totally enjoyable day. Well worth it. I recommend getting the group guided tour inside the Center to save time and get a better experience.

I participated in the Angel's Sea Tour on March 15, 2018. It was a cloudy and chilly day, but as we approached the sandbar, the blue sky opened up, and the contrast between the blue of the sky and the white of the sandbar was amazing.

When I got into the sea from the boat, I was surprised by the sudden depth, as the water was up to my shoulders, but it quickly became shallower, allowing me to take photos comfortably. After enjoying some beach volleyball and other activities in the water, we were treated to freshly made BBQ, which was exquisite.

I also saw plenty of sea turtles and made a wish (laughs). Finally, we moved to a spot with coral reefs for snorkeling, where I was able to enjoy the colorful fish. The tour had a good mix of foreigners and Japanese participants, and the explanations provided in a separate area for the Japanese made it easy to enjoy without any worries.

The sandbar is an experience you can only have here, so I highly recommend it to those who haven't seen it yet.

２０１８年３月１５日に天使の海ツアーに参加しました。
雲の多い肌寒い日でしたが、サンドバーに近づくにつれ青空が広がり、空の青さとサンドバーの白さとのコントラストは最高でした。
船から海に入る時はいきなり肩まで海水につかる深さだったので、ちょっとびっくりしましたが、すぐに浅く腰までになりゆっくり写真をとることができました。
海でバレーボール等ををしてゆっくり楽しんだあとは、出来立てのBBQが待っていました。絶品でしたよ。
ウミガメもたくさん見られて、しっかり願い事もしました（笑）
最後はサンゴ礁のある場所に移動してシュノーケリングでしたが、カラフルな魚がいっぱいいて堪能することが出来ました。
外国人と日本人が半分半分くらいのツアーでしたが、日本人向けに別の場所でしっかり説明してもらい安心して楽しめました。
サンドバーはここでしか体験できないので、まだ見ていない人は是非お勧めします。

I participated with my daughter. Both my daughter and I tend to get motion sickness, so we took some medication before joining. We usually do fine with regular boat rides, but we had to stop the boat and wait on the water for the whales to arrive. This is what made us feel nauseous.
All the announcements on the boat were in English.
The food seemed to be worth the price.
We were able to see a whale briefly, but I expected to see more, which is why I gave this rating.

娘と一緒に参加しました。私も娘も乗物酔いをする方なので、酔い止めを飲んで参加しました。通常の船の走行では大丈夫なのですが、クジラが来るのを待つために船を止め海上の上で待機するのです。これが、酔います。
船内の案内は全て英語です。
お料理は値段相応かしらという感じでした。
クジラは少しだけ見ることができましたが、もっと見れるんだと思っていたので、この評価となりました。

Great crew and sail. Wonderful view of Diamond Head. Even saw a few Sea Turtles.

This Hawaii travel was our 4th visit and 1st to Oahu, we actually had multiple times of Luau at the Maui, Big Island, Kauai and even in the Oahu.
I can definitely vote Rock-a-Hura show was one of our best show out of what we experienced many Luau show.
We took show + Luau dinner, surprising was hura dancers at the Luau are all real dancers of main rock-a-hura show, they are very kind and friendly during our Luau dinner, I even still remember our table host whose name is Megan, she was also performed in the main show. Every table had assigned a dancer as host and they were taking care of all dinner process and took picture together, isn't it amazing?
Main show also was wonderful, Michael Jackson, Elvis etc.. all rockers were amazing as well as hura dancers who's already known during Luau dinner.
I strongly recommend this show if you are staying at the Oahu.

This is my second time participating after a year. Last time, I only attended the show, so this was my first experience with the buffet. The staff were very kind, dancing close by, which made the meal enjoyable. And to my surprise, these staff members were also performers in the show! It felt very personal, and the fun was doubled. The content of the show was completely different from a year ago, making it feel fresh, and everyone's skill level was high. I definitely want to see it again when I come to Hawaii.

1年ぶり、２回目の参加です。
前回はショーのみだったので、ビュッフェ付きは初めてでしたが、
スタッフの方達がとても親切で、身近で踊ってくれたりと楽しく食事をすることが出来ました。
そしてなんと、このスタッフ達がショーの出演者でビックリ！
とっても身近に感じられて、楽しさも倍増しました。
ショーの内容も１年前とは全然変わっていて新鮮だったし、皆さんの技術力も高く、ハワイに来た際は又是非観たいと思いました。

Unfortunately, we were unable to encounter any whales during this cruise. However, the view of Hawaii from the sea was exceptional. I would definitely like to try again on a nice weather day.

残念ながら、今回のクルージングではクジラと遭遇する事は出来ませんでした。
でも、海から見るハワイの景色もまた格別でした。
またお天気のいい日に、ぜひチャレンジしてみたいと思います。

Before the show, we had dinner at a buffet-style restaurant on the terrace of the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center's fourth floor. We were first offered drinks, and we could choose between alcoholic and non-alcoholic options. Regardless of our choice, the drinks were served in Hawaiian-style cocktail glasses. The meal included a whole roasted pig, beef, salads, bread, desserts, and coffee, leaving us completely full. The dinner venue also featured hula performances and Hawaiian music, making the dining experience enjoyable. Finally, we entered the show venue and took our seats. The show was not only filled with impersonators of Elvis and Michael but also included hula dancing, Tahitian dancing, and fire dancing, making it a fantastic experience. I would love to see it again!

ショーの前に食事でした。ロイヤルハワイアンショッピングセンターの４階のテラスみたいなところでブッフェ形式のディナーを頂きました。最初にドリンクサービスがあり、アルコール入りかノンアルコールかを選べました。どちらを選んでもハワイらしいカクテルグラスででてきました。食事は豚の丸焼きのほかビーフやサラダやパン、デザートやコーヒーまでありお腹いっぱいになりました。ディナー会場でもフラやハワイアンの曲の演奏もあり食事中も楽しめました。いよいよショー会場に入り席に着きます。ショーはプレスリーやマイケルのそっくりさんのショーだけでなくフラダンスありタヒチアンダンスありファイアーダンスありの盛沢山でとっても楽しめました。また観たいと思います！

I think it's the perfect place to enjoy the beautiful sea of Waikiki.

I couldn't see any dolphins, but I was able to encounter some whales. The staff on the boat were very friendly, and we had a wonderful time filled with laughter throughout the trip.

However, the boat can be quite rocky, so those who are prone to seasickness should be cautious. Thank you for a very enjoyable journey!

ワイキキの美しい海を堪能するのに最適だと思います。

イルカは見れなかったけれど、クジラには遭遇することができました。
船のスタッフさん達もとても感じの良い方々で、終始笑いの絶えない雰囲気で素敵な時間を過ごせます。

ただ、揺れが激しいので船酔いしやすい方は注意が必要です。
とても楽しい旅をありがとうございました！

I applied with a light heart, wanting to see a show that feels Hawaiian. The buffet food might not be suitable for those who dislike greasy dishes, but there was plenty of delicious meat and fish. It might be difficult to go back for more food due to the show and seating arrangements, but I think one plate will be satisfying.

As for the show, I enjoyed both traditional Hawaiian hula and fire dancing, as well as a rock show, and I was very satisfied with the ample time given. The cast members even came up to the second-floor seats during the show, so for those who want to shake hands, I recommend moving early after the buffet to secure seats in the front row or on the aisle.

By the way, if I were to go again, I think I would prefer a plan without the buffet.

なにかハワイらしいショーも観てみたいなと、軽い気持ちで申込みました。
ビュッフェの料理は、脂っこいのが苦手な人には向かないかもしれませんが、肉や魚の料理がたっぷりで美味しかったです。ショーや席の都合で、料理を何度も取りに行くのは難しいかもしれませんが、1皿でも満足できると思います。
ショーの方は、ハワイらしいフラやファイヤーダンスとロックショーの両方が楽しめ、時間もたっぷりで満足でした。
途中でショーのキャストさんが2階席まで来てくれたりもするので、握手などしたい方は、ビュッフェのあとは早めに移動し、最前列や通路側の席を確保すると良いと思います。
ちなみに、もし次回行くとしたらビュッフェ無しのプランでいいかな、とは思います。

It was amazing, encourage others to go. We saw a tail slap, fins, and a whale clear the water! Enjoyed it immensely. The captain even stayed out a little longer because we saw so many.

I checked the tide in advance and participated in the afternoon course. The sandbar was beautiful, but there wasn't much to do after taking photos. The snorkeling was great because I got to see sea turtles. It was quite cold for this time of year, and I was shivering from the cold. They lend you wetsuits, so it would have been impossible to snorkel without one. My wife couldn't stay underwater for more than ten seconds during the snorkeling practice and gave up. If someone doesn't like the feeling of having that rubber in their mouth, it might be difficult for them. The food was warm and delicious. The kids were going back for seconds.

事前に潮を確認して、午後のコースに参加しました。サンドバーは綺麗でしたが、写真を撮ったら特にすることも無かった。シュノーケリングは海ガメが見れて良かった。この時期にしては、かなり寒いらしく、寒さで震えてた。ウェットスーツを貸してくれるので借りないとシュノーケリングは無理だった。妻は、シュノーケリングの練習で１０秒以上潜っていられずシュノーケリングは断念した。あのゴムをくわえる感覚がダメな人は無理かな。ご飯は、暖かく美味しいかった。子供は、おかわりして食べていた。

The night started off with hula dancing, and then transitioned into dining and then the show. It's only being honest when I say the food was a disappointing. I guess I expected it to be a little more foreign. It tasted great and me and my mom both got more than enough. The hosts were extremely original and open and encouraging to conversation. The girls were gorgeous and so attentive. There was only one guy host, Zack and he was really considerate, High energy and fun. The show definitely climaxes. It was so exciting. All of the performers looked happy to be there and we're putting themselves into it. It's obvious that alot of effort went into the choreography, set up and music. I loved that the singing was live and the VOICES!! Wow. Micheal Jackson, Katy Perry, Elvis in mpersonations were more than exceptional.

The hospitality of the staff was excellent, and I was able to participate in the tour with peace of mind. Their wonderful support eased the tension of the participants, and smiles were everywhere. I attended with a small child, and I am very grateful for the kind assistance from the staff. The atmosphere was great, and I was able to spend a lovely time. Thank you very much.
However, the weather was beyond our control and it was very cold, so I recommend bringing a jacket and pants. Since there are two opportunities to enter the sea, having extra towels would also be comfortable. I was worried about the cold air conditioning on the return bus, but it was turned off, which was a great help.
Lunch was very delicious.
Despite having a child with me, it was very comfortable, and I would definitely like to participate again. Thank you very much.

スタッフの方々のおもてなしがとても上手で、安心してツアーに参加できました。素晴らしい対応ばかりでツアーの参加者の緊張がどんもんほぐされ、笑顔が溢れてました。小さな子供を連れて参加しましたが、スタッフの方に優しく対応して頂き、大変感謝しております。とても雰囲気がよく、素敵な時間を過ごす事ができました。ありがとうございました。
ただ天候はどうにもならず、とても寒かったので上着やズボンを持っていくことをお勧めします。海に入る機会が2回ある為、タオルも多めにあると快適です。帰りのバスのエアコンの寒さが心配でしたが、エアコンは切ってあり、大変助かりました。
お昼ごはん、とっても美味しかったです。
子連れにもかかわらず、大変居心地がよく、また是非参加したいです。
ありがとうございました。

On the first day I participated, no whales appeared.

After returning to the hotel, I called the tour company and participated again two days later.

During the second time, although it was quite far away, I was able to see the spouts, dorsal fins, and tail fins about 5 or 6 times. It was disappointing not to see any jumps, but I suppose it's something rare to encounter.

Both days had good weather, so I was able to spend a comfortable time. Thank you very much.

　最初に参加した日にはクジラは現れませんでした。

　ホテルに戻った後，催行会社に電話して（日本語），2日後にまた参加しました。

　2回目には，かなり遠くの方ではありますが，潮吹きや背びれ・尾びれなど，5～6回は見ることができました。ジャンプが見れなかったのは残念でしたが，きっとなかなか出会えないのでしょうね。

　2日とも天気は良かったので，快適な時間を過ごせました。ありがとうございました。

I participated in the morning plan in mid-February. The day before was rainy and cold all day, but this day was sunny and warm, making it pleasant to enter the sea.

I checked the tide levels using the Kaneohe Bay Tide Chart and aimed to book during the lowest tide of my stay. It was about an hour after the Low Tide of 0.6 feet, but the water level was up to my calves in the shallowest areas.

It was my first experience snorkeling, and it wasn't difficult at all. I was able to see many colorful fish up close, and swimming with the sea turtles was a great experience.

The staff was full of hospitality, eager to make sure we had fun. Thank you very much.

　2月中旬の午前プランで参加しました。前日は１日中雨で寒かったですが，この日は晴れて暖かく，気持ちよく海に入れました。

　Kaneohe Bay Tide Chartで潮位を調べ，滞在中もっとも潮が引くときを狙って申し込みました。Low Tide 0.6 feetの時刻の1時間後くらいでしたが，一番浅いところでふくらはぎの下くらいまで水位がありました。

　シュノーケリング初体験でしたが難しいこともなく，たくさんの色とりどりの魚を間近に見ることができましたし，ウミガメと一緒に泳げたのも良い経験になりました。

　スタッフの方々は「楽しませよう！」というホスピタリティに満ちていました。ありがとうございました。

　

I participated with a guaranteed front-row seat. The seat was great, and since we were given priority for the buffet, I think choosing this seat was a good decision.

At the entrance of the venue, they take photos of each guest group, so there is a long line before you can take your seat.

The schedule mentions a "welcome ceremony" starting at 17:30, but it felt more like a pre-show. From 17:45, there was a "conch shell blowing challenge," but only three people selected from the audience participated. The "hula lesson" took place towards the end of the show, where about five people were chosen from the audience to dance on stage together.

If you dislike waiting for nearly an hour, it might be better to arrive around the meal start time of 18:00.

The show features dances from various Polynesian islands, and it's enjoyable. I understood only about half of the host's explanations, but having some English skills would enhance the experience.

　ゴールデンシート＜前方席確約＞で参加しました。席も良かったですし，ブッフェに優先的に案内されるので，この席にして良かったと思います。

　会場の入口でゲストを1組ずつ写真撮影するので，着席するまでに長い行列ができます。

　スケジュールには17:30から「歓迎セレモニー」とありますが「前説」みたいなものでした。17:45から「ほら貝ふきチャレンジ」とありますが，チャレンジするのは会場から選ばれた3人だけでした。「フラレッスン」は，ショーの最後の方で，5人くらいが会場から選ばれてステージ上で一緒に踊っていました。

　1時間近く待つのが嫌なら，18:00の食事開始時刻めがけて行った方が良いように思いました。

　ショーは，ポリネシア各地の踊りが見られて，楽しめます。進行役の説明は半分くらいしかわかりませんでしたが，英語力があればより楽しめるでしょう。

　

I participated with my friends via monitor. Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii was one of the places I absolutely wanted to visit since deciding to go to Hawaii!

There were so many types of water slides that you can't find in Japan, and it was so much fun. The slide in the photo was personally the most enjoyable, and I slid down it more than five times with my friends! (laughs) Plus, since it was a weekday in March, the park was nearly empty, and we could ride all the slides without waiting at all. (laughs)

I got so carried away that I was hit with an incredible fatigue afterward, but it was so much fun and completely different from pools in Japan, so if you go to Hawaii, definitely check it out!

モニターで友人と参加させていただきました。
ウェットアンドワイルドハワイは、ハワイに行くと決まってから絶対に行きたいと思っていた場所の1つでした！

とにかく日本にはないような、たくさんの種類のウォータースライダーがあり、とても楽しかったです。
写真のスライダーが個人的に一番楽しく、友人と5回以上は滑りました！(笑)
それに3月の平日ということもあり、園内はガラガラで全てのスライダーがほぼ待たず、乗り放題でした。(笑)

はしゃぎすぎて、終わった後半端ない疲労感に襲われましたが、日本のプールとは全く違って、とても楽しかったので皆さんハワイに行ったらぜひ行ってみてください！

This is a great place to learn about all the Polynesian islands aside from Hawaii. The only thing .. I would've liked for my son to have had more of a hands on experience with the different activities the center offers within each island. We had the ambassador pass and the tour took us quickly from island to island not really giving us a chance to engage in the activities. Or maybe I just thought it would be like the experience I had when I visited back in 2003. Regardless, the night show, Ha .. the breath of life, is a fantastic way to close anyone's night with a memory that will be treasured for a lifetime.

Seeing Honolulu from the sea was amazing, but I didn't see any whales at all. Instead, I just kept seeing airplanes.

海から見るホノルルはすごく良かったんだけど、クジラが全く見れなかったぁ。代わりに飛行機ばっかり見てた。

I could clearly see the whale. It was closer to the land than I expected. However, since it was still far away, I honestly couldn't feel its immense size. Still, I thought the richness of Hawaii's marine nature was wonderful.
The lunch buffet on the boat was satisfactory.
The photo was taken through the window while I was eating, so the quality is poor, but it captures the moment the tail went under.

クジラがはっきりと見えました。思ったよりも陸地に近い場所です。ただ、離れているのでその巨大さは正直感じられませんでした。それでもハワイの海の自然の豊かさ、素晴らしいと思いました。
船内の昼食ブッフェは満足できるレベルです。
写真は、食事しながら窓ガラス越しに撮ったので画質が悪くなりましたが尻尾が沈む瞬間です。

We used it as a couple. We were able to see the fireworks beautifully, and it created great memories. I would like to use it again when I go to Hawaii. Thank you very much.

夫婦で利用しました。花火も綺麗に見る事ができ、良い思い出が出来ました。ハワイに行った時はまた利用したいです。ありがとうございました。

I went with a female friend. However, there were only couples and newlyweds around us. (laughs) The scenery was beyond my imagination, it felt like being in a dream. The guide was also entertaining, and the hamburgers we ate on the boat were exquisite.

女友達と2人で行きました。
が、周りにはカップルや新婚さんばかりでした。笑
景色は想像以上で夢の中にいるようでした。
ガイドさんも面白く、船の上で食べるハンバーガーも絶品でした。

I really wanted to see it live, so I decided to try whale watching for the first time. Since this is the only season to see them, I thought it would be a great opportunity.

In the morning, we headed to the port on a large bus, where a somewhat older but impressive cruise ship was docked. Other guests from different buses boarded, and we received explanations about the whales' behavior, how to respond when we spot them, and the best locations to find them.

As we set sail, we enjoyed a leisurely cruise while gazing at Waikiki Beach and heading out to sea just past Diamond Head. It seemed like the whales appeared somewhere, but I missed them. However, I was able to see a few blows and breaches from a distance afterward.

When everyone turned in unison toward the direction of the sighting, it created a strange sense of unity, and I really enjoyed it. Whether or not you see them is a matter of luck, but even just the cruising experience was highly satisfying, and I was able to spend the morning in a pleasant and meaningful way.

どうしても生で是非見てみたいというということで、初めてホエールウォッチングに申し込んでみました。この季節しか見れないということもあり、折角ならという思いもありました。
朝、大型バスで港に向かうと少し古めですが立派なクルーズ船が停泊していました。他のバスからのお客さんも乗り込み、生態や見つけた時の対応、出没スポットなどを説明いただきました。
出航すると、横目にワイキキビーチを眺めつつダイヤモンドヘッドの少し先の沖合までゆったりクルーズが続きました。
と、どこかで出現したようでしたが、見逃してしまいました。ただその後に何度かブローとブリーチングを遠目からですが、見ることができました。
出現した時に全員が一斉にその方向に向かうのは妙な一体感があり、とても楽しめました。見れるかどうかは運次第ですが、クルージングだけでも満足度は高く、午前中の時間を心地よく有意義に過ごすことができました。
