All Reviews for Teen Adventures (Ages 13-17)

The expensive seats are of course close to the stage, but I thought it was a good deal to be guided to the front rows if you line up early in the regular seats. The area is flat without any steps, and you watch the show while eating at a U-shaped buffet. There were six dancers and one host, which felt like a larger group than I expected. Both types of seats had the same buffet options. It seemed like the people in the expensive seats took their food first, followed by those in the regular seats. One fun service was that they offered to draw tattoos on your arm with a magic pen if you wanted!

価格が高い席はステージから近いのはもちろんだけど、普通席で列に早く並んで前の方の席に案内されたらお得だと思いました。段差がある訳でもなく平坦なところでU字でビュッフェを食べながらショーを見ます。ダンサーさんは6人で司会1人でそれを思ったより大勢でみる感じでした。ビュッフェはどちらの席も同じものを食べます。高い席の人から取っていき、普通席の人が取っていくという感じでした。楽しかったのは腕にマジックペンでタトゥーを書いてくれるサービスが希望すればあったことです！

We booked a plan with a banana boat and a paddle tube for the family. It was an exhilarating experience in the thrilling waters of Hawaii, almost feeling like we were going to be thrown off. We could enjoy snorkeling, kayaking, and SUP as we pleased.

The guide spoke fluent Japanese, so there were no issues. A light lunch was provided before swimming, which was just the right amount. We enjoyed live music on the boat, and there was a bottle to put tips in on the way back, which seemed optional.

Since it wasn't during a high tide, we could stand, but the water still reached up to our necks. Floating while gazing at the beautiful sea, fish, and the towering mountains felt uniquely Hawaiian. Even if it rained, it was just a passing shower. It gets cold when you come out of the water, so a jacket is essential. Having a waterproof phone case would have made it even better.

家族でパンパーチューブ、バナナボート付きのプランを申し込み。振り落とされそうなくらいスリル満点ハワイの海を体験。シュノーケリングにカヤック、SUPどれも好きなように楽しめます。
ガイドの方は流暢に日本語を話すので問題ありません。軽いランチも泳ぐ前には適量です。
船上ライブを聴きながら盛り上がり帰りに瓶があるのでチップを入れます。任意の様です。
大潮ではなかったので足はついても首まで海水がありました。きれいな海と魚、高山の山々を眺めながら浮かぶ気分はハワイならではと思います。雨が降っても通り雨。海から上がると寒いので上着は必須です。防水携帯ケースを持ってればもっと最高でした。

The water was about waist-deep, and I thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful sea. The ocean at Waikiki is also lovely, with waves and a lively crowd, but the sea at the sandbar was quiet, calm, and refreshing, with only tour participants around, making it truly wonderful!

The staff took many photos for us, and we enjoyed playing beach volleyball and having a hamburger lunch. After lunch, we went to see sea turtles and snorkeled around the coral reefs, enjoying plenty of activities. Many people brought waterproof bags to use their smartphones underwater, which is recommended for taking underwater photos. However, there was a girl who lost her credit card and room key because her bag was open, and her smartphone got submerged (it seemed to be waterproof), so please be careful.

水深は腰くらいあったけと、とても美しい海を堪能しました。ワイキキの海もきれいで波があり人もにぎわっていますが、サンドバーの海はツアーの人しかいなくて静かで穏やかで爽快な素敵な海でとても素晴らしかったです！！
写真もスタッフの方がたくさん撮ってくださったり、ビーチバレーを楽しんだり、ハンバーガーランチを楽しんだり。ランチの後も、ウミガメを見に行ったり、サンゴ礁周りをシュノーケリングしたり、たくさんアクティビティを楽しめました。水中でスマホを使える防水袋を持ってきている方がたくさんおられ、水中写真が撮れてお勧めです。ただ袋が空いて、クレジットカードとルームカードキーを無くされ、スマホが水没された女の子がいたので（防水仕様で大丈夫だったようです）、要注意してください。

First of all, I admit my own fault, but when I arrived at the meeting point exactly at 11:00 for the boat that was scheduled to depart at 11:00, it left right in front of me. In the end, I was able to change to the next boat an hour later.

As for the view from the submarine, the water clarity was low, and there were only a few fish; I saw a small shark once or twice at most. My 3-year-old child started to get bored after about 10 minutes, and the crew talked non-stop for an hour, which was quite painful for us since we didn't understand English. The foreign guests on board also seemed to be smiling awkwardly and didn't look like they were having much fun.

As an experience, I wouldn't discourage anyone from trying it once, but when I calmly looked back at the cost, I concluded that I definitely wouldn't do it a second time.

まずこれは自分も悪いんですが、
11時出発の船で11時ピッタリに集合場所に着いたら、目の前で出発されてしまいました。
最終的にはその1時間後の便に変更してもらえましたが。
あとは潜水艦から見える景色も透明度低く魚が少し、一度か二度だけ小さいサメが見えた程度。
3歳の子供は10分ほどで飽き始め、
クルーが1時間ずっと喋りっぱなしで、
英語わからない自分達にはかなり苦痛でした。
乗ってる外国の方も苦笑気味であんまり面白そうな感じではなかったです。
体験としては一度経験する事は止めないですが、冷静に金額見返したらまず2回目は無いよね。という結論に至りました。

I got confused about the meeting point in the harbor and ended up getting dropped off on the completely opposite side, which meant I had to run through the parking lot. I couldn't get through on the phone and ended up being late for the meeting time. However, the staff at the shop were incredibly kind and switched me with the next group, allowing me to fly safely. At one point, I was really worried about what would happen, but their kindness was truly reassuring.

Once we took off, we quickly ascended to a high altitude, and the feeling of being able to overlook Waikiki was amazing—like being at the highest point in Waikiki! After the enjoyable flight, we had the customary Japon, and at the end, everyone who was on the boat together took photos and chatted in a friendly atmosphere. There were so many fun things to do besides flying, and it was great to see Waikiki and Diamond Head from the boat.

ハーバー内の集合場所がわからず全く反対側でタクシーを降りてしまい駐車場内を走ることに。電話をしてもつながらず集合時間に遅刻してしまいました。
ただショップの方が大変親切で次の便の方と入れ替えてくれ無事飛ぶことができました。一時はどうなるかと肝を冷やしましたがとてもやさしくして頂き本当に心強かったです。
飛んでしまえば一瞬で高いところまで上がりワイキキを一望する気分は「ワイキキで一番高いところにいる！」という感じ。
楽しい遊覧の後はお約束のジャポンもあり、一緒にボートに乗った人たちとも最後は和気あいあいと写真を撮ったり話したり。飛ぶ以外にも楽しいことがたくさんありました。ボートからワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドを見たりできるのもよかったです。

The experience was a great time! The crew was friendly and knowledgeable. The water was a bit choppy at first but there was a lot of help with that, especially since we had my 14 month old and 3 year old. The girls had a great time.

This was my family and I’s first time going to a luau. The atmosphere was very fun and welcoming. The dancers did a great job, especially the chief that danced with the fire. The drinks were nice and I like that we had unlimited soft drinks. The only downside is that the buffet was a bit underwhelming. Overall, my family and I enjoyed ourselves.

Had a wonderful time kayaking and snorkeling with family. Saw lots of fish. Enjoyed the water. Entertainment was a plus. Will definitely recommend to friends.

This is my second time on the 5-Star cruise. This time, I wanted to see the fireworks on Friday, so I made a reservation here.

I enjoyed the meal and Hawaiian-style cocktails. By the time I was seated, the appetizers were already prepared, and the lobster and salad were easy to eat.

If you want to relax and enjoy a calm atmosphere, I recommend the window-side seats on the 3 or 5-Star cruises.

In the past, I took a photo with the captain at the entrance, but this time it was taken at my seat.

2回目の5スター乗船です。
今回は金曜日の花火も見たくて、
こちらを予約しました。

お食事とハワイらしいカクテルを楽しみました。
お席に着いた時にはもう前菜が用意されており、
ロブスターやサラダは食べやすかったです。

落ち着いた雰囲気でゆっくり楽しむなら
窓側指定の3か5スターがおすすめです。

お写真は以前は入口で船長さんと一緒に撮影しましたが、今回はお席での撮影でした。

結論から言うと参加して良かったです！！
サンドバーは浅く小さな子どもも楽しめる海で、とても楽しみにしていました。当日は天気があまり良くなく、8月のお盆の夏真っ盛りなのに海の水がかなり冷たい！！シュノーケリングは魚もいっぱいいて、海の透明度も高く良かったですが、長く海に浸かってるのは冷たすぎるので難しかったです。
なので、サップやカヤックがとても楽しめました！！スタッフのお兄さんたちは皆さん陽気で優しくとても親切でした！

久々のパラセーリングを楽しみに家族と参加しました！空から眺めるダイヤモンドヘッド、真っ青な海はとても絶景！！ですが、想像よりも高く飛んだのでさすがに怖く（笑）浮遊してる時間もそれなりにあり、料金に見合った満足度の高い内容でしたが、高所恐怖症の人は絶対にできません！高いところが好きな方は絶対楽しめます。

I went on my honeymoon.
There were many people from overseas around, and I was anxious because I couldn't speak English, but there was a friendly Japanese guide, which made me feel at ease and enjoy the experience.
While the tour explanations were in English, the Japanese guide provided clear explanations separately.
When we arrived at the sandbar, I was surprised by how beautiful the sea was, even more than I had imagined. It was my first time snorkeling, and the water's clarity was amazing, allowing us to see the fish and coral reefs clearly, which was a lot of fun!
The hamburgers we ate on the boat were exceptional!
When boarding the boat, we secured our luggage and seating, but it felt nice to place our things outside during the ride with the refreshing wind. The restroom is inside the boat, so it's not very clean, but it can't be helped.
Of course, you'll get sunburned, so it's best to take proper precautions.
It became a wonderful memory of my trip, and I would love to go again if I visit Hawaii!

ハネムーンで行きました。
周りは、海外の方が多く、英語もできないので不安もありましたが、日本人の気さくなガイドさんがいて、安心して楽しめました。
英語でツアーの説明がある中、別で日本人のガイドさんが分かりやすく説明してくださいました。
サンドバーに着くと、想像していたより海がとても綺麗で驚きました。初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、海の透明度がすごいので魚やサンゴ礁がはっきりと見えて楽しかったです！
船の上で食べるハンバーガーも格別でした！
船に乗ると自分たちが荷物を置く場所や座る場所を確保するのですが、船の中ではなく、外に置くと移動中風が気持ち良いです。トイレは船の中なので、綺麗とは言えませんが、仕方ないですね
日焼けももちろんするので、しっかり対策した方がいいです。
旅行中の素敵な思い出になりました、またハワイに行ったら行きたいと思います！

Hands down would do again! The luau was amazing, and everyone was so kind and worked so hard to put on an amazing show. We also got to swim in the falls which was amazing. Definitely recommend! If you're reading this, just book it. You won't regret it. It was also kid friendly. I took my 1 year old and everyone loved
him and took extra effort to involve him in the cultural activities.

I arrived at the meeting place on time, but there were no tour staff, which made me anxious. Since everything is in English, I recommend joining a tour with Japanese-speaking staff for those who feel uneasy. For those who are okay with just a general understanding, the staff will explain things in an easy-to-understand manner, so please give it a try. I was able to see both sea turtles and wild dolphins perfectly!

集合場所に時間通りに着いたのにツアースタッフがいなくて不安になりました。全て英語なので、不安な方は日本語スタッフのいるツアーに参加される事をお勧めします。何となくでも良い方にはスタッフが分かりやすい言葉て教えてくれるので、参加してみて下さい。ウミガメも野生のイルカもバッチリ見ることができました！

This was the highlight of our island hopping experience!.. family of 6.. ages 9, 12, 17 and 21 and they all said this was the best part of our travel time in Oahu and the big island!.. looking forward to doing it again on our next visit!!! Directions were clear to meet at harbor, check in with ease and lunch was delicious!. Crew is so helpful and fun. Will recommend to anyone who visits.. family and friends including those fb groups for tips on travel here..

Exceeded our expectations! The tours and guides are excellent. Buffet lunch was good.

I participated with my child (a college student). Since there was no transportation provided, we walked a lot from our hotel, which was near Honolulu Zoo. The meeting place was a bit hard to find. Once we flew, the view was spectacular, and we enjoyed a different side of Hawaii. They don't provide drinks, so it's best to bring your own.

子供（大学生）と2人で参加しました。
送迎なしでしたので、泊まっているホテルが、ホノルルズーの近くで、ひたすら歩きました。集合場所が、わかりづらかった。
飛んでみるとかなりの絶景で、また違うハワイを楽しめました。飲み物とかは出ないので持って行くべきです。

The show was super entertaining! 10/10.
The food was fantastic and they don’t let you go hungry :). 10/10
The bar drinks were disappointing. We each had 2 and none were drinkable. 1/10

The crew and the team were awesome. The excursion was truly memorable.

It was great that children as young as 2 years old could board. Our three generations, including a 5-year-old and a 7-year-old, had a wonderful time! When we were chasing dolphins, the 2-year-old stayed on the boat and was delighted to see the dolphins from the second floor, saying they were cute. The 5-year-old tried twice but ended up crying because the mask didn't fit. The 7-year-old was in great shape! They enjoyed the dolphins, sea turtles, and the slide more than any of the adults, diving in multiple times. Thank you to Maki and the other crew members for being so kind and attentive.

２歳から乗船可能性で助かりました。５歳、７歳の子どもも含め３世代で楽しむことができました！イルカを追う時は２歳の子は船で待機、２階からイルカの姿を見て可愛い♡と喜んでいました。５歳の子は２回挑戦しましたがマスクが合わず泣いてしまいました。７歳は絶好調！イルカも海亀もスライダーも、大人たちの誰よりも楽しんで何度もダイブしていました。まきさん始め他のクルーの方々も親切丁寧で、ありがとうございました。

I participated with my 20-year-old nephew. We were a bit worried since both of us get motion sickness, but the boat didn't rock much, so it was fine. There were five groups of ten people, including us, and everyone seemed to be having a great time. The moments of going up and down were thrilling, and during the descent, they made it a bit of a steep drop and let us down into the sea, which was a lot of fun. The view from above was breathtaking, and it was the best experience. I definitely want to participate again!

20歳の甥と2人で参加しました。2人とも乗り物酔いをするので少し心配していましたが、ボートもあまり揺れずに問題ありませんでした。私たち含め5組10人でしたが、みなさん楽しそうでした。上がる時と降りる時はスリリングで、降りる時は少し急降下させたり、海に降ろしたり、楽しませてくれました。上での景色は絶景で最高の体験ができました。またぜひ参加したいです！

It's very close to Hilton Village, and after enjoying the pool and lagoon, you can walk to the meeting point in your swimsuit!

ヒルトンヴィレッジからとても近く、プールやラグーンを楽しんだ後そのまま水着で歩いて集合場所まで行けます！

I will be simple and straight, please see my following points.

1. I booked sit down dinner, not buffet, overall food presentation look good, taste good too. Drinks are good too.
2. Service is just so so, the server for my table never gets me things I asked for, example, refill water, lemon, and my second glass of drink, I understand it's a busy task and have to serve all plates and take finishing plates away, and each server takes care of couple tables, but this should not be used as an excuse for service quality.
3. The show is good, but it's kind short, I wish we can see the full stage of Luau show, but the center stage is pretty small, so in order to accommodate every guest, they always have couple dancers on each side,

I participated with my daughter (18 years old). Since I'm not very comfortable with heights, we chose the 120m course. On the day of the tour, it was quite windy, and we were informed that the captain would decide whether to proceed, but we set sail safely, and all 13 participants enjoyed parasailing.

As mentioned in other reviews, there was some swaying (the boat was just the right size for the 13 participants that day; I think it could hold a bit more). I took motion sickness medication, but my daughter seemed to feel a bit seasick. I was fine, so I think it depends on the day's conditions.

The staff noticed my daughter's condition and flexibly changed her turn to an earlier time, allowing her to soar into the blue sky and enjoy the views of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea. Other participants were also concerned about her, which was very helpful.

I purchased the photos taken by the staff for $40. They transferred the data to my iPhone and provided an SD card. Since the photos were taken from below, opinions on how they turned out may vary, but as they are digital, it's easy to enlarge and check them, and I think they make a nice keepsake. It seemed that other participants chose the 150m option, but even at 120m, there is a decent height, and I believe those who are hesitant can still enjoy this experience. My wife and son did not participate this time, but if they are interested, I would like to join again next time.

本人（50代）と娘（18才）の2名で参加しました。
あまり高いところは得意ではないので、120mのコースを選択しました。
当日は風が強く、ツアーの実施はキャプテンの判断との説明を受けましたが、無事に出航して、参加者13人全員がパラセーリングを楽しんでいます。
他の方のレビューにも書かれていますが、それなりに揺れがあります。（ボートは当日の13人で丁度くらいの大きさです。もう少しは乗れると思いますが。）酔い止め薬を飲み参加しましたが、娘は少し船酔いした様子でした。わたしは大丈夫だったので、その日のコンディションもあると思います。
スタッフの方が娘の様子を見て、臨機応変に早めの順番に変更してくれたので、娘も青空に舞い上がり、海から見るワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドの風景を楽しむことができました。他の参加者の方も娘の様子を気にかけてくださり、助かりました。
スタッフの方が撮影してくれた写真は40＄で購入しました。iPhoneへのデータ転送とSDカードが貰えます。写真は下から撮影されるので、撮れ方は賛否あると思いますが、デジタルデータなので拡大して確認することは容易ですし、良い記念なったと思っています。他の参加者は150mを選択されていたようですが、120mでもそこそこ高さがあり、尻込みされている方はこちらでも楽しめると思うので、参加されたら良いと思います。妻と息子が今回不参加だったので、次回、希望があれば、また参加したいと思います。

I participated yesterday. It was for my honeymoon. The instructor was entertaining, and I felt safe and enjoyed myself. The view of the ocean from high up was amazing, and Diamond Head was beautiful as well.

昨日参加しました。新婚旅行での参加です。インストラクターが面白くて、安心して楽しめました。高い空からの海の眺めは最高で、ダイアモンドヘッドも綺麗でした。

I was able to make a reservation the day before, and the pickup location and time were emailed to me right away, which was reassuring. I had heard that there could be trouble if you don't know the meeting place, but it was clear at the ABC Store, so there were no issues.

About 30 of us boarded the bus, and we left Waikiki, arriving at the pier in 45 minutes. There, a Japanese staff member joined us and provided a helpful explanation in advance. On the boat, we also enjoyed live music.

The activities included snorkeling, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding, and I was satisfied to have about two hours to use freely. However, since it was "do as you please," beginners should learn how to do each activity in advance.

About a quarter of the participants were Japanese. The staff were all friendly, and it was a fulfilling experience without any feelings of loneliness. I highly recommend it.

前日に予約がとれましたが、ピックアップの場所と時間は直ぐにメールされたので安心。待ち合わせの場所がわからずトラブルになるケースかあると聞いていましたが、ABCストア前でお店のナンバーが明快だったのでトラブルなし。
30人くらいでバスに乗り合わせ、ワイキキを出発して45分で埠頭に。そこで日本人スタッフがついて事前に説明していただいて助かりました。船中では弾き語りも楽しめました。
アクティビティはシュノーケリング、カヤック、SUPの3種類で、約２時間自由に使えたのは満足でした。ただ、お好きにどうぞ、なので初心者の方はそれぞれ事前にやり方を学んでおいた方がよいです。
日本人は１/4くらい。スタッフは皆さんフレンドリーで孤独感もなく充実したアクティビティでした。オススメです。

We did jet skiing, bumper tubing, and parasailing. The staff were able to communicate in Japanese, and everyone was very friendly and accommodating. Our family of five had a great time, and everyone said they really enjoyed it.

ジェットスキー、バンパーチューブ、パラセーリングをしました。
スタッフの方との会話も日本語で出来るし、とにかく皆さん大らかで対応が良く家族5人でしたが皆んなとても楽しかったと言ってました。

Great place great atmosphere. Great people great view. We had an amazing time.

I participated with my 9-year-old son on August 18. Before making a reservation, I looked at the reviews and saw mostly negative comments, which made me hesitant, but we had a great time.

There was a small note on the boat suggesting tips, but there was no pressure to give them at all. We participated as a group of four, and no one paid tips. Regarding photos, they asked if we wanted to take some, and when I declined, they responded with a smile and said, "Don't worry."

The view over 100 meters is beyond words! The waves weren't high, and I didn't feel seasick. The staff primarily spoke English, but one of the assistants seemed to speak broken Japanese.

I came across some reviews that seemed a bit shady, but the girl at the reception was friendly and even gave us water.

Good experience!! Enjoy Waikiki!

8/18に9歳の息子と参加しました。
予約する前に口コミをみたら、ネガティブな投稿ばかりで、迷ってましたが、普通に楽しめました。

チップについては、ほしいな的な落書きが船内に小さく書いてありましたが、要求されることはまったくないありませんでした。実際に4ペアでの参加でしたが誰も払っていませんでした。写真についても撮るか？と事前確認があり、断りましたが、dont worry.と笑顔でやり取りしました。

100メートルオーバーの景観は筆舌に尽くしがたいです！波も高くなく、酔うこともありませんでした。基本的に英語のみですが、助手の人はカタコト日本語ができるようでした。
何となく悪徳っぽい口コミ見かけますが、受付の女子も感じよく、水もくれました。

good experience!!
enjoy waikiki!

A very professional high-quality show filled with authentic elements of traditional cultures, like how they instantly made baskets out of coconut leaves. Particularly, the host was good, that he was able to play with fire while being a genuine comedian, making fun of lovers and kids in such a delightful way. True respect to the host, our chief that night!
