All Reviews for Baby Friendly (Ages 0-2)

The transportation was smooth, and despite the strong winds, the boat didn't sway much, which was great. However, unfortunately, we weren't able to see any whales.

送迎もスムーズで船も風が強かったにも関わらずあまり揺れることなく良かったです。ただ、残念ながらクジラを見ることが出来きませんでした。

I was able to see dolphins up close. I had my photo taken, but there were people who had many photos for the same price and others who did not, so it would be nice if that could be improved. I thought the staff were cheerful and kind, which made it enjoyable.

イルカを近くで見ることができました。
写真を撮って頂きましたが、同じ金額で沢山写ってる人と、そうでない人といるし、他の人の写真ばかりのUSBを買っても、ちょっと困りますのでその辺は改善していただきたいと思います。
スタッフの皆さんも陽気で親切で楽しめたと思います。

I went in April, and it was cold. It feels even colder with the wind, so wearing a wetsuit makes it more enjoyable. Be careful with rash guards, as they can make you feel even colder when the wind blows. The water is clear, and there are fish and turtles, so I think girls and children would like it. If you have a waterproof camera, you can take pictures. Non-waterproof cameras are not allowed because they could get damaged.

4月に行きましたが寒いです。風があると尚更寒いのでウェット来たほうが楽しめます。ラッシュガードは風が吹くと余計寒いので注意が必要です。水が綺麗で魚や亀がいますので女の子や子供は好きと思います。
カメラは防水なら撮って貰えます。非防水は壊す危険があるとかで撮ってもらえません。

It was my first experience in my life, and I was very impressed. The staff's explanations were also very interesting and easy to understand. I thought the beach would be exposed due to the tide, but on May 5th, it was only up to my knees, which was a bit disappointing.

生まれて初めての体験、感激しました。スタッフの説明も大変面白く、解りやすい感じでした。
潮の引き具合で、砂浜が出ていると思ってましたので、5月5日はひざ下ぐらいまでだったので少し残念でした。

Viewing Waikiki and Diamond Head from a different angle, the ever-changing colors of the ocean—everything was just the best scenery! The ride was quite bumpy, and while it was fun at first, I started to feel a bit nauseous… I think a shorter duration would be better, but I enjoyed it at a reasonable price, so it was worth it.

いつもと違う角度から見るワイキキ、ダイアモンドヘッド、どんどん変わっていく海の色、とにかく最高の景色でした！途中揺れが凄くて、初めはそれも楽しかったのですが…少し気持ちが悪くなりました…。もう少し短い時間でもいいかなと思いますが、お手頃な値段で楽しめたのでよかったです。

It was a very fulfilling tour that lasted only in the morning. The sandbar was incredibly beautiful and felt like a different world. Since we could return to Waikiki by lunchtime, we were able to make good use of our time. It's okay to get on the bus in wet clothes, but it was still cold. I wish I had changed in the restroom before getting on.

午前中のみで、とても中身の濃いツアーでした。
サンドバーはとてもキレイで別世界。
お昼にはワイキキに帰れるので時間も有効に使えます。
帰りのバスは濡れた服のままでもオッケーですがやはり寒い。乗る前にトイレで着替えたら良かったなと、思いました。

Kailua Beach and Lanikai Beach are both stunning beaches.
Hotel → Shuttle bus → Shop for beach guidance and snorkeling rental → About a 5-minute walk to the beach.
The staff provides thorough explanations.

Kailua Beach
It's a beach where just lying on the sand feels great.
Coral is only found in some areas.
Since there are waves, boogie boarding is recommended.
I saw some people kite surfing.

Lanikai Beach
It's about a 10-minute walk from Kailua Beach, with a slight uphill.
You access the beach through a residential alley from the road where cars drive.
The two islands are impressive, making it a beach with a fantastic view.

The pizza for lunch is huge.
Fins can be rented for an additional fee.

カイルアビーチとラニカイビーチ、ともに絶景のビーチです。
ホテル→バスで送迎→ショップでビーチの案内・シュノーケルレンタル→ビーチまで５分くらい徒歩
スタッフの方が丁寧に説明してくれます。

カイルアビーチ
砂浜に寝転がっているだけで気持ちがいいビーチです。
珊瑚があるのは一部の場所のみです。
波があるので、ブギーボードがおすすめです。
カイトサーフィンをしている方がいました。

ラニカイビーチ
カイルアビーチから10分くらいで歩いて行けます。少し坂道あります。
車が走る道路から、住宅の路地を抜けてビーチへ。
２つの島が印象的で、眺めて最高のビーチです。

昼食のピザは巨大です。
フィンは別料金で借りられます。

I saw 3 and one came up to the surface beside me! Very cool. Unfortunately there wasn't much else to see, some fish. Stay near the guides in the water as they know where turtles hang out. Crew was outstanding! Catamaran ride was fun!

Great day on the secret beach. Although there are only a few kayaks & SUP's, the 8 of us had plenty of time on them. Beach chairs provided and we took picnic. The area to use equipment is blocked off and is a tad smaller than we would have liked. Also the area is over a reef so if you fall in the water be careful. Enjoy

All i can say is that me and my husband was thoroughly entertained. The food the service was second to none awesome show. I wouldn't hesitate to see it again.

We participated in this tour because we really wanted to see wild dolphins on our honeymoon.

The meeting time was at 5:55 AM, but around 5:20 AM, a Japanese female staff member called our hotel room for a morning call. During that call, she informed us that we needed to wear swimsuits and that if we wanted to rent a wetsuit, it would cost $5 per person, so we needed to have cash on hand.

The participants on the bus were mostly Japanese, with about 20 people in total. Inside the bus, the Japanese staff explained the precautions and how to use the snorkel, which made us feel at ease. They also recommended that those who are prone to motion sickness take medication on the bus. Motion sickness wristbands were available for sale on the bus for $20, but I didn’t buy one. By the way, I got quite seasick during the parasailing the day before, but I didn’t feel sick at all during this dolphin tour.

Finally, we boarded the boat and cruised to the point where the dolphins were located. There were four staff members on board, and they were all very enthusiastic, chatting with us in English, which created a fun atmosphere throughout. Then we finally spotted the dolphins and dove into the sea with our snorkels! We swam close to the dolphins, and there were so many swimming just below me!! Both my husband and I were thrilled to see them up close. Please make sure to bring an underwater camera. I highly recommend participating in this tour.

ハネムーンで、野生のイルカをどうしても見たくて主人と二人で参加しました。

朝5時55分の集合でしたが、5時20分頃に、ホテルの部屋まで日本人の女性のスタッフの方からモーニングコールがありました。その際に水着着用のことと、水中は寒い為、ウエットスーツをレンタルする場合には、一人＄５必要な為、現金が必要な旨連絡がありました。

到着したバスの参加者はほぼ日本人で、２０名くらいがいたと思います。
バスの中で、日本人スタッフの方から注意事項やシュノーケルの使い方など説明があり安心できました。また酔いやすい方は、バスの中で薬を飲むことをお勧めします。バスでは酔い止めのリストバンドも売られていましたが、＄２０のため、私は買いませんでした。ちなみに前日参加したパラセイリングではかなり酔ってしまったのですが、このイルカツアーは全く酔わなかったです。

いよいよ船に乗り、イルカがいるポイントまでクルーズをします。スタッフの方４名いたのですが、皆さんテンションが高く英語で色々と話しかけてくれる為、終始楽しい雰囲気でした。そしていよいよイルカを発見し、シュノーケルをつけて海にダイブします！そしてイルカの近くまでみんなで泳いでいきました。するとそこにはたくさんのイルカたちが私のすぐ下を泳いでいました！！
こんなに間近で見ることができ、主人も私も感激しています。水中カメラは絶対に持参してください。
ぜひ参加をお勧めします。

I participated with my mother during this year's Golden Week! We stayed at Hilton Hawaiian Village, and the pickup location for the shuttle was easy to find within the hotel.

The park opened at 10:30, but the bus arrived quite early, around 9:30. The air conditioning on the bus was too cold, so it might be a good idea to dress warmly even in Hawaii.

After waiting for about 40 minutes, we started going through the gates around 10:15 and headed to the lockers to store our belongings. There was a monitor with instructions in Japanese nearby, and when you made a payment, your locker number was displayed. You can open and close the locker as many times as you want, so it's a good idea to store towels and money that you won't be using.

Half of the park features thrilling slides for adults, while the other half is geared towards children's pools. We were seeking thrills and enjoyed the Island Racer and Tornado rides repeatedly. Because of this, we had plenty of time and didn't feel rushed at all.

However, I was really disappointed that the Shaka ride was closed, as it was something I was looking forward to. There seems to be a hot spa as well, but it was closed at first, and when we passed by on our way out, it was open, which was unfortunate.

As for the pizza we had for lunch, to be honest, it wasn't good... it was cold, and there was no dressing for the salad. When I asked the staff, they pointed to a spot where the only options were ketchup, mustard, and barbecue sauce. None of those went well with the lettuce or olives, and I couldn't believe it cost $9.49. I wouldn't recommend the pizza.

The weather that day was cloudy with strong winds and occasional rain, but we still managed to enjoy ourselves since we saw some sunny moments!

今年のＧＷの休みを利用して母と参加しました！
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジに滞在し、送迎のピックアップ場所もそのホテル内とわかりやすかったです。
開園時間は10：30だったのですが大分早い9：30ころにバスが到着。バスが冷房ききすぎで寒かったのでハワイだからと言って薄着だと困るかも。
４０分ほど待って、１０時１５分頃から順次ゲートをくぐり荷物を預けにロッカーへ向かいました。近くに日本語での案内モニターがあり、そこで入金するとロッカー番号が表示されるというシステムです。何度でも開閉可能なので使わないタオルやお金も預けるといいです◎
パーク内の半分は大人も楽しめる絶叫系スライダー、もう半分は子供向けプールというようにわかれており、スリルを求めていた私たちはひたすら半分のアイランド・レーサーやトルネードを楽しんでいました。（笑）そのため時間はたっぷり余り、ゆっくりと回ることもできたので時間も短いとは感じませんでした。
ただ、一番楽しみにしていたシャカがクローズとなっておりとっても残念でした。
ホットスパもあるみたいですが、最初のほうは閉まっており入れないと思ったら帰り際に通ったら開いており残念でした…。
昼食に食べたピザですが、はっきり言っておいしくない…冷めてるし、サラダにはドレッシングがなし。定員さんに聞くと、「あっち」と言われ見てみるとあったのはケチャップ、マスタード、バーベキューソース。レタスやオリーブにはどれも合わず、これに＄9.49もかかるのか、、という感じでした。ピザはおすすめできないです。
当日の天気は曇り空で、風も強くたまに雨も降る微妙なコンディションでしたが晴れ間も見えたので十分楽しめました～

The crew was friendly and knowledgeable! It was great to be able to sail. Out of KoOlina instead of driving into Honolulu! We were lucky enough to get up close and personal on our Snuba dive with a hospitable sea turtle! A+

Although the weather was unfortunately cloudy throughout the day and not sunny, the beauty of the sandbar's sea was highlighted when blue skies and light occasionally peeked through the clouds.

Since it wasn't low tide, the white sandy beach didn't rise above the water's surface, but we still enjoyed the stunning emerald green sea.

While snorkeling, we swam with many fish and encountered four sea turtles. There were even turtles swimming right next to us, which really got us excited when they came close!

The BBQ on the boat featured hamburgers, which were very delicious. The staff prepared them on the spot, adding cheese and other toppings, and they provided the service in a fun and engaging manner, making it enjoyable.

If I had one complaint, it would be that the guide staff during the transfer made some belittling jokes about Japanese people, which was off-putting. However, the other staff members were very friendly and great.

終始曇り空であいにくの天気で晴天というわけではなかったが、時々雲の切れ間からの青空と光が差し込むと、サンドバーの海の綺麗さが引き立って綺麗でした。
干潮ではなかったので、白い砂浜が水面に上がることはなかったが、エメラルドグリーンの海の綺麗さだけでも十分楽しめました。
シュノーケリングでは、たくさんのお魚と一緒に泳げ、ウミガメにも4匹遭遇できました。
人間のすぐ横で泳ぐ亀もいて近くに来た時はテンション上がりまくり！
船上でのBBQはハンバーガー。とっても美味しかったです。
スタッフがその場でチーズ等具材を挟んで提供してくれるのですが、事務的でなく遊びを交えて提供してくれ、楽しませてくれました。
1つ不満をあげるとすると、送迎の際のガイドスタッフが日本人を小馬鹿にしたジョークで蔑んでる感じを受け気を悪くしました。
その方以外のスタッフはとてもフレンドリーで良かったです。

Magnifica mini crociera su catamarano, splendida esperienza e vista magnifica su diamond head e waikiki beach. Fantastico!!!

The performances of Elvis Presley, Celine Dion, and Michael Jackson impersonators were impressive, especially Celine Dion's, who sang so well that it was hard to believe she was an impersonator. The Hawaiian dance was also great. The food was just okay.

本格的な舞台でエルビスプレスリー、セリーヌディオン、マイケルジャクソンのそっくりさんの歌（セリーヌディオンのそっくりさんの歌はそっくりさんとは思えないほどうまかったですね）や踊り、そしてハワイアンの踊り、良かったですね。食事はまあまあかな。

I participated in the afternoon tour. I was a bit worried about the weather as it was slightly cloudy that day, but once the boat set sail, the sun came out, and I was able to see the beautiful sandbar. The malasadas served on the boat were freshly made, still warm, and fluffy.

We landed on the sandbar! The water was at calf height due to the low tide, and we played by lying down and jumping, while the staff captured the moments with a camera. Before the sea turtles appeared, a little squid also made a guest appearance (laughs), receiving cheers of "So cute!!" from the young women (laughs).

Then we went snorkeling at the coral reef. Guided by the staff, we snorkeled while observing the coral reef. We were also able to see the sea turtles that came to visit us. Lunch was served buffet style, with a variety of options including meat, salad, fruit, bread, and rice. I didn't eat much, but everyone else went back for seconds multiple times.

There are various things to keep in mind when participating, but the staff kindly explains everything. Even those who are snorkeling for the first time have practice time, so it's all good! (Those who can't swim can rest on the boat.) Also, if you book through VELTRA, you can rent prescription masks, so those with poor eyesight can enjoy snorkeling without worry.

If you have a waterproof camera like I do, you can enjoy the tour even more, but even if you don't, you can purchase a waterproof "disposable camera" on the boat, and the staff will also take photos of the participants, so there's no need to worry. The staff were unique, and I’m really glad I participated. This time, I joined with a colleague, but if I have the chance to travel to Hawaii again, I would like to bring my whole family along.

午後のツアーで参加いたしました。当日の天候は少し曇りで心配していましたが
船が出航すると晴れ間も現れ、美しいサンドバーを拝見することができました。
船内で振る舞われるマラサダは出来たてでまだ温かくてフワッフワです。
サンドバーに上陸！海面は引き潮でふくらはぎの高さで、寝そべって遊んだり、
ジャンプして滞空する瞬間をスタッフの方がカメラで撮影してくださいました。
ウミガメ登場の前に、小さなイカちゃんもゲストで登場（笑）
若い女性の「キャーカワイイ！！」という歓声を浴びていました（笑）
そして珊瑚礁のシュノーケリングです。スタッフの先導で珊瑚礁を見ながらシュノーケリング。
遊びに来てくれたウミガメも見ることができました。
昼食はビュッフェスタイルでお肉からサラダ、フルーツ、パン、ごはんなど様々なものが
準備されています。私はあまり食べませんでしたが、皆さん何度もおかわりされていましたよ。

参加の際、色々と注意しなければならないことがありますが、スタッフの方が親切に説明してくれます。
シュノーケリングが初めての方でも練習時間があるので大丈夫です！
（泳げない方は船上で休憩できます）
またVELTRAから申し込むと度付きのマスクをレンタルでき、
視力が悪い方も安心してシュノーケリングを楽しめます。
私のように防水カメラがお持ちでしたら、より一層ツアーを楽しめますが、
なくても船上で防水仕様の「写ルンです」が購入できますし
スタッフの方も参加者の写真を撮ってくれますので心配はいりません。
スタッフの方もユニークですし、参加できて本当によかったです。
今回は私と同僚の２人で参加しましたが、次にハワイ旅行に来る機会があれば
家族全員で参加したいと思います。

We had a wonderful time and enjoyed ourselves immensely. Our server was very attentive, the food delicious and the entertainment was exceptional. Would definitely recommend it to anyone. We would do it again in a heartbeat!

Nothing compares to see the whole Island from above.
Definitely must-do for every visitor.
Take Eco-Star it is quiet and you feel like on the flying carpet.

The weather was just bad and cloudy, but I played while taking pictures up to my shins, and it was my first time snorkeling, but I was able to swim with the fish and it was quite fun.

ちょうど天気が悪くて、曇りでしたが、膝下くらいまでのところでは、写真をとったりしながら遊び、シュノーケルも初めてでしたが、魚と泳ぐことができてまぁまぁ楽しかったです。

We participated as a couple. We boarded the boat with a mix of skepticism and high expectations about what we would see. Every time someone shouted, there was a commotion and movement, which was a bit tiring... but we did see it. Just when we thought we might not see anything, we spotted the tail... Unfortunately, we couldn't see the large body, but the view of Honolulu Beach from the sea was breathtaking. I would like to participate again during a better season.

夫婦二人で参加しました。どのくらい見えるのか、半信半疑も期待大で乗船しました。誰かが叫ぶたびにどよめきと移動で少々くたびれましたが・・・見えたんです。もう駄目かなと思っていたときに尾びれが・・・残念ながら大きなからだの部分は見えませんでしたが、海から眺めるホノルルビーチの風景は絶景でした。また季節の良い時に参加したいと思います。

There are various sandbar tours, but it seems this cruiser is the most wonderful one after seeing different boats at the port. It's decided!
Also, the staff were all very fun and lovely. The best.
It's challenging, but definitely check the tides!
Let's have a hamburger lunch, not just in the morning! It's delicious.
Even if it's cold, definitely try snorkeling!
I recommend asking the female staff to take photos. They will have you pose in various ways, but they take beautiful pictures! It's a bit embarrassing, though.
Anyway, I highly recommend this tour!

サンドバーツアーは色々ありますが、港で色々船を見ると、どうやらこのクルーザーが一番素敵みたいです。決まり！
また、スタッフがみんなとても楽しく、素敵でした。最高。
難しいけど、絶対に潮の満ち引きを確認しましょう！
午前中だけでなく、ハンバーガーランチを食べましょう！美味しいです。
寒くても、シュノーケルリングはトライしてネ〜
スタッフの女性に写真頼むのがオススメです。色々ポーズ取らされますが〜綺麗に撮影してくれますよ！恥ずかしいけどね〜
とにかくオススメツアーですした。

The sandbar was very beautiful! It was great that the guide actively took photos for us! The lunch was also delicious.

サンドバーはとても綺麗でした！
ガイドの方が積極的に写真を撮ってくれてよかったです！
ランチも美味しかったです。

Really nice cruise, Great music and service. Relaxing, nice views of Honolulu.

The driver was on time and gave interesting information on Hawaiian history and culture. Beautiful views!! Enjoyed by all.

Had a wonderful time. We had the loberster and steak was excellent cook perfectly!

The weather was great, and the sea was really beautiful (＾＾)♪ Since it was a morning trip, we arrived at the sandbar just in time for low tide, and in some places, the seawater had completely receded. During snorkeling, a sea turtle came up to the surface for air right in front of me, and I was able to swim a little with it! We had plenty of time, so even though we were running late, we weren't rushed at all and could swim leisurely and enjoy ourselves. However, the sandbar had rocky areas that were quite painful, so it would have been nice to have rental reef shoes. *It's hard to justify buying them just for this (＾＾；

天気にもめぐまれ海が本当にきれいでした（＾＾）♪
午前の便だったのでサンドバーではちょうど干潮の時間にあたり
場所によっては完全に海水が引いていました
シュノーケリングもちょうど海ガメが息継ぎに水面まで上がってきてくれて
目の前で見れ少しですが一緒に泳ぐこともできました！
時間も余裕をもってとってあるのか遅くなっても全然せかされることなく
のんびり泳ぐことができ楽しむことができました
ただサンドバーは下が岩でゴツゴツしていて痛いところも多かったので
リーフシューズのレンタルがあるとよかったです
※これのためだけになかなか自分では購入できないので（＾＾；

This was just perfect for me and aside from the strong winds causing the visitor center to be closed , I was very happy I took the self guided tour and yet had the informative drive up to the drop off location with the added pointers, water and walking stick (it did come in handy but I could've done without it). It was a good value and our driver Romero , was great!

Since it was our honeymoon, we opted for a VIP dinner. We were first taken to the bar where we enjoyed cocktails, and then we moved to the dining area for dinner. The food was decent... The show felt like a fusion of a Polynesian show and impersonations. It seemed great for those who like Elvis Presley, Celine Dion, and Michael Jackson, but my husband didn't quite understand it and wished they would incorporate more from younger generations. I could barely recognize some of it, but it did feel a bit outdated if you didn't know.

ハネムーンという事で、VIPディナーにしました。初めにバーに通されてカクテル等を頂いた後、会場に移りディナーを頂きました。
お料理は、そこそこかな…。
ショーはポリネシアンショーとものまねの融合といった感じです。エルビスプレスリーやセリーヌディオン、マイケルジャクソンが好きな人や世代の方にはとても良さそうでしたが、主人はよく分からなかったようでもう少し若い世代の人のも取り入れて欲しいなと愚痴をこぼしておりました。確かに、かろうじて私は分かりましたが分からないと少し古いような感じもしました。

On that day, the rain and cold made it quite different from the scenery we had hoped for. However, the guide was very nice, and we saw a lot of sea turtles, and my husband even saw a manta ray. I think it would be an amazing place if the weather were clear.

当日、雨と寒さで期待していた情景とだいぶかけ離れた物になってしまいました。しかし、ガイドのお姉さんもとてもいい人だったし、ウミガメもたくさん見れて、主人はマンタも見れました。晴れたら最高の場所だと思います。
