All Reviews for Baby Friendly (Ages 0-2)

First of all, we passed Hanauma Bay and stopped at the Lanai Lookout, which was an unexpected bonus that I wouldn't have ever seen, being on a work trip with a very brief window to go out on a Sunday. I'm very grateful to him for a joyful trip, the extra stop (thank you!!!!!), and the information he shared en route to Hanauma Bay, about where different creatures may be seen, areas of the bay, types of fish, and even local characters (yes, fish). One of the fish characters (I think a Humuhumu? but I could be wrong) was described as a chihuahua who will pester you if you cross paths, LOL! The bay is simply some of the most beautiful water and fish I've ever snorkeled in the company of. Just incredible. 11/10. Thank you for an amazing experience.

There were Japanese staff members, and I was able to hear the explanations in Japanese beforehand, which made me feel at ease throughout the experience. The sea was beautiful, just like in the photos. I would love to participate again if I have the chance!

クルーには日本人の方もいて、事前の説明等日本語で聞くことができ終始安心感がありました。
海も写真の通り綺麗でした。
また機会が有れば参加したいです！

Awesome crew. Everyone had a great time snorkeling and sailing.

I went snorkeling to see fish, and I was able to swim with a considerable number of honu (sea turtles)! The crew spoke Japanese, so I was able to enjoy the activity with peace of mind! One thing I felt was that changing clothes, which was optional, is actually a must. (It's cold to return on an air-conditioned bus in a swimsuit.)

魚をみるためのシュノーケリング目的で行ったのですが、かなりの数のホヌと一緒に泳ぐことができました！
クルーの方も日本語が通じたので安心してアクティビティを楽しめました！
ひとつ感じたことは、持ち物で任意だった着替えは必須です。(水着で冷房のきいたバスで帰るのは寒いです)

I was looking for a hula dance show and found this one! The buffet and drinks were delicious, and the content of the show was very enjoyable, so I was very satisfied. However, there were two disappointing points.

The first was that there was quite a bit of time between the meeting time and when the buffet started. We had a tight schedule before, so we rushed over, but I thought it would have been fine to take our time if we had known about this gap.

The second point was that the show tickets indicated that VIP seats were on the first floor and normal seats were on the second floor, but in reality, the VIP seats were up to the 3rd and 4th rows, and everything beyond that was normal. Given the significant price difference, I wondered if the quality of the seats was really that different.

Overall, I was satisfied, but I felt that I might not have needed a VIP ticket after all.

フラダンスショーを探していて、このショーを見つけました！
ブッフェとドリンクも美味しく、ショーの内容もとても楽しくて大満足でした。
ただ、残念だった点が2点あります。
一つ目は集合時間からブッフェが始まるまでに時間がかなりあったこと。私たちは前の予定がギリギリまであったので、急いで向かいましたが、この時間があるなら急がなくて良かったなと思いました。
二つ目は、ショーのチケットはVIPが1階席、ノーマルが2階席と書いてありましたが、実際は3.4列目までがVIP、それ以降がノーマルで、こんなに価格差があるのに、それほど席のよさは変わらないかも？と思いました。
全体としては満足ですが、VIPチケットでなくてもよかったなと思うところもありました。

Thank you for the enjoyable tour. Everyone was very friendly and it felt great. I had a child with me, and they were very considerate, which was a big help. Thank you very much. However, I was a bit disappointed that the weather was cloudy and cold, and the tide wasn't fully out.

この度は楽しいツアーありがとうございました。
色んな方に気さくに話されており凄くいい感じの方でした。子どもが居たのですが凄く気にもかけて下さり助かりました。ありがとうございました。
ただ天気が曇りで寒かったのと潮が引き切っておらずだったところが残念に思いました。

Such a great way to see all of the Pearl Harbor sites! Pick up in Waikiki and all of the tickets included made it very easy. The included lunch was delicious and generous portion size. Our tour guide was very engaged and informative - she called us all her cousins and taught us a lot about Honolulu and Pearl Harbor. Would highly recommend!!

I chose this tour because it offers pick-up from both Kailua Beach and the town. The shop is just a few minutes' walk from Kailua Beach, so I was able to go back and forth twice and enjoy playing at the beach. The water is shallow, the sand is fine and beautiful, and even for someone like me who isn't a strong swimmer, I felt safe and had a great time in the ocean. The emerald green sea was so beautiful that it took my breath away. I thought I could only rent a beach mat, but I was able to borrow a chair and ended up napping on the sand. The staff who spoke Japanese were always attentive and their consideration was wonderful. I found it a bit confusing when to give tips and how much to give to whom, so it would be helpful if there were some guidelines provided. Next time, I plan to skip the town and go directly to Kailua Beach and Lanikai Beach.

カイルアビーチとタウンと両方送迎してもらえるツアーが良くてこちらに決めました。
カイルアビーチまで徒歩数分のショップなので、2回行き来してビーチで遊べました。遠浅で、砂もさらさらで綺麗で、泳ぎが苦手な私でも、海で安心して楽しめました。エメラルドグリーンの海綺麗すぎて感動です。ビーチマットしか借りられないと思ってましたが、チェアが借りれて砂浜で寝てしまいました。日本語話せるスタッフさんがいつも気にかけてくれて、配慮が素敵でした。
チップを渡すタイミング、どれくらい誰に渡すか分からなくて、目安とか書いてて貰えたら助かるなと思いました。次は、タウンは行かずにカイルアビーチとラニカイビーチまで行ってみようと思います。

Earnel was just amazing. We've done lots of tours all over the world, and on an all-day tour like this one, the guide can make or break the tour. Earnel was one of the best we've had.

He was fun, friendly, knowlegeable, and very personable. He treated us all as "ohana" and made sure we had everything we needed to get the most out of this amazing day.

We loved the monuments and the whole tour. We'll definitely recommend it to others!

My family and I had a wonderful time! This was a great experience for everyone and provided a true family memory. Thank you Cheif's Luau, I really enjoyed the show you put on.

I'm glad we chose this for our family's first activity in Hawaii! ☺️ First, we listened intently to the explanations in English, and then we received a little bit of explanation in Japanese, which helped us get used to the English. We were also lucky to encounter sea turtles three times, which was amazing.

家族3人とも初ハワイ初アクティビティにこちらをチョイスして良かったです☺️
まずは英語での説明を必死にきき、そのあと日本語で解説してもらえ少しずつ英語に耳慣れ
ウミガメにも3度出会え最高でした。

I was able to enjoy everything, including the ocean, coral, fish, and the honu (sea turtle). The staff's English was very fast, making it difficult for me to understand since I'm not very good at it, but they provided support in Japanese, which was very helpful. Additionally, they kindly guided us, and thanks to them, my parents were able to enjoy themselves and come back happy.

The duration of the stay was shorter compared to other tours, but it was just right since I was with my elderly parents. I definitely want to visit this place again when I go to Hawaii!

海も、サンゴも、魚も、ホヌもすべて楽しく体験することができました。
スタッフさんの英語はめちゃ早くて、あまり得意でない私には聞き取りが困難でしたが、日本語でのフォローもしてくれて、とても助かりました。
また、親切にガイドしてくれて、おかげで父母も楽しんで帰ることができました。

滞在時間がほかのツアーに比べて短めでしたが、高齢の父母を連れてでしたので、ちょうど良かったです。
ぜひ、ハワイに行った際には再度訪れたい場所です！！

The crew was very nice and friendly, helpful and very attentive , tour it was very organized, and would do again . saw turtles and the coral reef was viewable wide selection of options while snorkeling . would recommend.

If you really want to have a fun day, then this tour is for you. And, family friendly! I've done it the last 2 years and am going to book again for next year. The crew: Captain Cheyenne, and crew members Julia, Yuki, Yukiko and Cody are the best. Very friendly, and GREAT personalities.
Walking on this sandbar is an experience. And they even set up a water volleyball game. The water is perfect and the bluest I've ever seen.
After the sandbar, they fire up the grill for a nice hamburger/cheeseburger lunch with all the fixins. And they have meatless burgers also.
After lunch there is snorkeling. Due to recent knee replacement surgery I was unable to participate last year, but was able to and had a great time this year.
After snorkeling, you go turtle watching. There were plenty, and some of them are HUGE.
My one big recommendation: Bring reef friendly sunscreen because the sun will fool you. It was a bit overcast this year,, but the sun still managed to get me.

It was the first time taking my family to PCC and they enjoyed learning about the different islands and cultures. It was a fun and filled with hands on activities for any one of any age to participate in. The buffet had a lot of food to offer and the staff were friendly and accommodating. We were initially seated in the back but we had two members in our family with mobility issues and they promptly reseated us closer to the food. The show Ha was great. I have never seen a woman Samoan fire dancer and she was phenomenal.

I participated with my 0-year-old child. Since there were many participants, we took two buses and two boats, dividing into a Japanese-speaking team and an English-speaking team for the boat ride. Everyone was very kind to the children, making it easy for us to join with kids! If the child wears a float, they can stand on the sandbar, and although snorkeling is in deeper water, as long as we ensure the waves don't hit the child's face, we were able to enjoy it without any issues! The staff attended to us in Japanese, making it easy to ask questions, and above all, the location was amazing. I'm really glad I participated!!!

0歳の子どもと一緒に参加しました
参加人数も多かったのでバスも船も2台で行きましたが、日本語チームと英語が話せるチームに分かれて船に乗りました
皆さん子どもを可愛がってくれて子連れでも気兼ねなく参加できました！子どもは浮き輪を付けていけばサンドバーは足が着くし、シュノーケリングは深い海ですが子どもの顔に波が当たらないようにすれば問題なく楽しむことができました！
日本語でアテンドしてくれるのでわからないことは聞きやすいですし何よりロケーション最高でほんとに参加して良かったです！！！

During our honeymoon last year, I was interested in this show, and I participated during this trip. The buffet was filling, and I almost missed the desserts, so I rushed in and enjoyed them. There was also a show during the meal, with hula shows, rock shows, and fire dances on the stage, which kept us entertained one after another! Thank you very much!

昨年のハネムーン時に、こちらのショーが気になり、今回の旅行時に参加させて頂きました。
ビュッフェはお腹いっぱいになり、デザートに気付かず、慌てて駆け込み、詰め込みで堪能しました
食事中にもショーがあり、館内のステージでも
フラショーや、ロッキンショー、ファイヤーダンスと、次々と楽しませてくれる構成で楽しかったです！　有難うございました！

It was great! The crew and Captain were wonderful. We saw amazing fish and other things. Highly recommended this company. Amazing service and very nice. Love it so much

We participated as a family of three, including my husband and daughter. The staff supported my husband, who is not a good swimmer, allowing us to enjoy scuba diving. The hamburgers grilled on the boat were also excellent. We would love to participate again next year.

夫婦と娘の３人で参加しました。金槌の夫をスタッフ皆さんでサポートしてくださり、スキューバを楽しむことができました。船上で焼いたハンバーガーも抜群。来年も是非参加させてください。

The whole experience was wonderful, the barbecue was great. Snorking was amazing, the crew was amazing.

Great day on the water!! We got to see dolphins and the water was crystal clear it was nothing short of amazing

All the tours were awesome but the Ha Breath of Life was a great way to end the day!

The boat was a bit rocky.
The food was delicious but felt cheap.
The fireworks were amazing.
If the boat were bigger, maybe the rocking would be less.

船が少し揺れやすくよいました
ご飯はおいしかったが　安っぽかった
花火は最高でした
船が大きければ揺れは小さいのかも

In the first half, we played with SUP boards and floaties in shallow water. In the second half, those who could swim put on life jackets and went snorkeling. Since we couldn't swim, we were pulled by the staff to explore underwater. We were very lucky to see four sea turtles. It was a great experience. However, since we couldn't swim, we couldn't move around freely. So, I think it would be more enjoyable for those who can swim, but of course, even non-swimmers can have fun.

前半は浅場でSUPや浮き輪で遊びました。
後半は、泳げる人は救命具を付けてシュノーケリングです。
私達は泳げないので、スタッフさんに引っ張ってもらって海中を散策。
ウミガメも4匹も見られて、とてもラッキーでした。
いい体験ができました。ただ私達は泳げないので自由に動き回れませんでした。なので泳げる方はもっと楽しいとおもいますので泳げる方におすすめです。もちろん泳げなくても楽しめます。

To celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary, we enjoyed snorkeling at a sandbar, just like we did on our honeymoon. It was with a foreign tour company that has a name just one letter different from "Heaven," and all the staff were extremely friendly. A Japanese staff member was in charge of the tour, and the larger of the two boats that set sail was completely full of Japanese passengers.

After enjoying the sandbar, we had lunch with BBQ hamburgers prepared by the captain himself. Following that, we were able to snorkel for a full hour around the coral reef where sea turtles are found, and we returned to port while watching the sea turtles. It was a truly satisfying experience.

結婚３５周年の節目にあたり、新婚旅行で体験したサンドバーのシュノーケリングを楽しみました。「天国」さんと一字違いの外資系のツアー会社ですが、スタッフ全員が非常にフレンドリーで日本スタッフのお姉様がツアーを仕切っており、２隻出航した大きい方の船は乗客全員が日本人で満員でした。
サンドバーを楽しんでから船長自らBBQしたハンバーガーなどの昼食を食べた後は、ウミガメがいる珊瑚礁の周囲をたっぷり１時間シュノーケリングすることができ、ウミガメウォッチングをしながら帰港するなど大満足の体験でした。

The food was ok. The noodles were the best part. The entertainment wad better definately. Did not get to see as much sunset due to the mountains.

The spam onigiri on the boat was delicious, and I was happy to try various snacks! There was plenty of free time, and I had a great time. During snorkeling, many fish came close, and I was able to take lots of great photos☆ I even saw three sea turtles, which was so lucky! Everyone leading the tour was kind, and it was a lot of fun. I want to go again!!

船ではスパムおにぎりおいしかったし、お菓子も色々食べれてうれしかった！
自由時間もたくさんあって、楽しめたし、シュノーケリングも魚たくさんよってきてくれて、いい写真がたくさん撮れました☆
ウミガメも3匹見れたし運よすぎ！
引率のかたみんなやさしくてとても楽しかったですまたいきたい！！

Everything was great. We saw turtles and enjoyed the reef. It was a little difficult to eat lunch on the boat as there were not really any good seats for it. But the burgers were delicious.

It was a long and tiring day, but it was absolutely worth it. There is so much history. Most people know about the USS Arizona Memorial, but there is so much more. The submarine Bowfin, battleship Missouri and the Aviation museum. With the short movies and museums at each attraction there is so much to see and do it takes a full day. Our 9 yo boy absolutely loved it. He never complained once. His favorite part was exploring the Missouri. I highly recommend this tour.

It was the tour I was looking forward to the most, and the weather was great, making it the best day ever!! It felt like heaven, and I was so happy!! Snorkeling and swimming with the fish was a wonderful experience!

一番楽しみにしてたツアーで天気もよくて最高な一日でした！！天国って感じで幸せでした！！
シュノーケリングで魚とも泳げていい経験でした！
