All Reviews for Teen Adventures (Ages 13-17)

When you think of Hawaii, you might imagine a Polynesian show with fire dancing, but this is an indoor magic show.

The magician is a famous person who has appeared on "Tetsuko's Room," but the show is primarily in English. If there are Japanese guests, he will speak a little in Japanese, but it's just a tiny bit.

Very young children who don't understand English at all may have a hard time keeping up. Since he is a magician, his movements are quite fast, so it might be confusing for children around 7 years old and younger.

Adults will enjoy it!

ハワイといえば炎をまわすポリネシアンショーをイメージしやすいですが、こちらはインドアのマジックショーです。

マジック担当は徹子の部屋にもでていた有名な方ですが、基本は英語です。
日本人ゲストがきていたら少しだけ日本語で話してくれますが、あくまでほんの少しです。

英語まったくわからない小さな子供にはあまりついていけないです。
マジシャンだけあって所作のスピードもはやいため7歳以下くらいの子供には❓かもしれません。

大人はたのしいです

Parasailing itself was very fun. The staff also made it enjoyable for us! I want to do it again—thank you!

パラセーリング自体とても楽しかったです
スタッフの方も楽しませて下さいました！
またやりたいです〜ありがとうございました！

I participated with a 10-year-old boy.

Including photo sessions, it was about 2 hours of continuous buggy riding. I think it's quite rare to have such a long experience.

The feeling of refreshment and being in nature is the best.

Women and girls can also join, but a word of caution: it gets very dusty. Your shoes will get dirty with dry reddish-brown soil.

If you plan to go shopping or to a nice restaurant right after this experience, be prepared. My black hair turned brown and tangled, my black T-shirt became reddish-brown, and my face was brown too. While riding the buggy, laughing and talking made my teeth brown as well. But it was so much fun; my son and I, along with other foreigners experiencing it, were all laughing and taking pictures.

It's better not to wear nice clothes or sneakers.

Women should be careful as makeup will definitely get ruined.

If it rains, it will get even worse. This is an activity suited for men who don't mind getting dirty.

Also, you need a rental car to get to the location. It's right next to Haleiwa, so it can be a bit unsettling at first due to the lack of landmarks, but it's in a simple location.

I want to go back to this place the next time I visit Hawaii.

10歳の男の子と参加。
写真撮影含め約2時間、ぶっ続けでバギーです。
なかなかこの長時間は他にはないと思います。

スッキリ感と自然を感じるのは最高です。

女性も、女の子もいけますが、注意点は、
かなり土ぼこりだらけになります。
靴も乾いた赤茶の土で汚れます。

こちらの体験後に買い物や、高めのレストランにそのまま行く予定がある方は覚悟したほうがよいです。
筆者も黒髪が茶色でガシガシになり、黒のTシャツが赤茶色、顔も茶色、バギー乗っている間に笑うのと喋るため　歯まで茶色になります。
でもそれが楽しく、私も息子も、同時に体験してる外人も皆、大笑いして写真に残していました。

良い服装や、スニーカーなどは着て行かないほうがいいです。

女性はお化粧が確実にダメになりますのでご注意。

スコールきたらもっとひどくなります。
汚れを気にしない男性向きのアクティビティです。

あとレンタカーなどでないと現地にはいけないです。
ハレイワのすぐ横ですので目印がないのが最初は不安になりますが、単純な場所にあります。

次回ハワイ行く際も行きたい場所です。

This was my third time parasailing 🪂. There might be some people hesitant to join because they're scared, but even a timid 10-year-old boy can do it without any issues. It's a little scary before you take off, but once you start, everyone is smiling. This time, there was also a couple in their 80s who flew together.

My child wants to fly again next year.

Since we went out early in the morning, the boat was rocking, so I recommend not overeating before the activity and taking motion sickness medication.

I usually don’t get motion sickness, but this time, with five groups flying, it was a long ride, and I started to feel a bit nauseous towards the end, which was a bit dangerous. There was a woman in a couple who looked like newlyweds in their 20s, and she seemed exhausted halfway through.

3度めのパラセーリング🪂
怖くて参加迷ってる人いるかもですが、10歳のビビリの男の子でも全然大丈夫です。
飛ぶ前まで少し怖いだけで、いざ始まればみんな笑顔。
今回は一緒に飛んだ人で80代のご夫婦もいました。

子供は来年も飛びたいと言っています。

朝イチからで、ボート揺れますので、アクティビティ前の食べ過ぎと、酔い止めは飲むのをオススメします。

私は普段酔いませんが、今回は5グループの飛行で長かったので、後半は少し気持ち悪くなってしまって危なかったです。
20代くらいの新婚さんかなとゆうカップルの女性の方は途中からグッタリしてました。

Riding along the beautiful coastline was amazing. The initial explanation in Japanese video made me feel at ease. The horses are very well trained, so it's fine even for beginners. They also take photos along the way.

綺麗な海沿いを乗馬できるなんて、最高でした
最初日本語のビデオで説明もあり、安心です
ウマもとてもよく調教されていて、はじめてでも大丈夫です
途中で写真も撮ってくれます

This is my second time participating, and last time the water was knee-deep, but this time it was up to my neck. There was live music on the boat the whole time, and the atmosphere was very nice. The boat also had a restroom, which was reassuring.

２回目の参加ですが、前回は膝くらいの深さで
今回は首までの深さがありました
船の中はずっと生演奏があり、とても雰囲気が良かったです
船にはトイレもあり、安心です

The cruise was quite good with beautiful seas and a refreshing breeze. The movie location tour had some artificially created spots, but the scenery was nice. The English guide told jokes, but I was disappointed that I couldn't understand them due to my listening skills.

クルーズが、綺麗な海と爽やかな風でかなり良かった。映画ロケ地ツアーは人工的に作られてるところもあったけれど、景色が良かった。英語ガイドがジョークを言うのだけど、リスニング力が無く残念だった。

This time, I participated with a companion. Thank you for the amazing parasailing over the ocean in Waikiki. Those who are afraid of heights might find it a bit challenging, but I still think it's worth it. Also, if you're concerned about seasickness, make sure to take motion sickness medication before going.

今回，同行者との2人で参加しました．ワイキキの海に最高なパラセイリング，ありがとうございました．
高所恐怖症の方は少し苦手かもしれませんが，それでも行く価値はあると思います．
あと，船酔いする懸念がある方は必ず酔い止めを飲んでから行きましょう．

We were blessed with great weather and enjoyed ziplining amidst the beautiful contrast of the sky, mountains, and ocean in Kualoa, Hawaii. The staff only spoke English, but they were cheerful and friendly, enhancing the experience of the activities. I think it's definitely worth a try.

　天気に恵まれ、ハワイのクアロアの空、山、海の美しいコントラストの中、ジップラインを楽しめました。スタッフは英語オンリーですが、明るく親切で、アクティビティを盛り上げてくれます。トライして損はないと思います。

We had a great time. The crew was outstanding. We wish we had mere time on the sandbar.

Great entertainment and beautiful setting. Helpful life guards provided great instructions and safety info. Very organized and efficient. Had a great time would recommend and rebook on a return trip.

We participated as a family of three. While some activities are far from Waikiki, this canoe was easily accessible in Waikiki, and the staff and captain were very kind, allowing us to catch some great waves.

家族３名での参加。アクティビティはワイキキから遠いものもありますが、このカヌーはサッとワイキキで利用できて、スタッフ、キャプテンもとても親切で良い波に乗れました。

Crew was great, food was good, would recommend to all

The number of units was limited, and there was almost always a wait time. Some people were getting seasick while waiting. The actual time spent diving was very short, which was disappointing.

台数が限られてほとんど待ち時間でした。
人によっては待ってる時間で船酔いしていました。実際に装着して潜った時間もすごく短くて不満だった。

I loved the movie filmed here and made a reservation. The scale was grand, and I was able to experience something extraordinary!

However, while other guides were taking pictures with dinosaur plush toys in the drop-off area, our guide stayed in the car. I think it would be a better tour if you could ensure a more equal quality of guides.

こちらで撮影された映画が大好きで予約をしました。
スケールが壮大で非日常を味わうことができました！

ただ、降車エリアで他のガイドさんは恐竜のぬいぐるみを持って撮影してくれていたのに、私たちのガイドは車に乗ったままでした。
ガイドの質平等を頼んでいただけたらもっといいツアーになると思います。

I participated with my wife and our two children, aged 9 and 5. I was a bit worried that my 5-year-old might be scared, but he had a great time. The weather was nice, and the view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head was incredibly refreshing.

妻、9歳、5歳の子供と家族4人で参加しました。
ちょっと怖がるかな？と不安でしたが5歳の息子も大はしゃぎでした。
天気も良くワイキキビーチとダイヤモンドヘッドが見渡せて爽快感が半端なかったです。

We went to the Polynesian show at WDW years ago and this one blew it out of the water. Fantastic family atmosphere.

I joined a tour because I wanted to see wild dolphins. Right after we set sail, we encountered a pod of spinner dolphins, and they swam alongside the boat for a long time, jumping several times. The natural dolphin show was absolutely amazing. The staff was very friendly and taught us a lot about Hawaii. It was quite cold when we returned after snorkeling, so I really appreciated the warm drink they provided. I was hoping there would be a hot water shower, but unfortunately, there wasn't.

野生のイルカを見たくてツアーに参加しました。出航してからすぐにマダライルカの群れに会うことができ、長時間船と一緒に泳いでくれたり何度もジャンプもしてくれました。自然のイルカショーはとても最高でした。スタッフの方もとても親切でハワイについて色々と教えてくれました。シュノーケルを終えて帰ってくるときとても寒かったので温かいドリンクの提供ありがたかったです。
温水シャワー付きなのかと思っていたのですがなかったのが残念でした。

On the way to Haleiwa (North Shore), we had a break at the Dole Plantation. It’s a good spot for a restroom break and to check out souvenirs. I took some photos and bought a T-shirt. After that, we were taken to the ranch to start our horseback riding experience. The driver spoke fluent Japanese and provided an overview during the ride. However, all the staff at the ranch were locals, so they didn’t speak Japanese. But they were very friendly, and I managed just fine by watching and mimicking them. My child had ridden horses in Japan before, but this was the first time riding independently rather than on a lead. Since we would be riding for nearly an hour, I was initially anxious, but the horses were very calm, and I quickly got used to it and felt at ease. More than that, my backside was sore! The weather was great, and as we rode along the beach, I felt time slow down and realized I was having a precious experience. This isn’t something you can do in Japan... I would love to do it again if I have the chance, but please be aware that the muscles in my legs, which I don’t usually use, were quite sore right after getting off the horse.

After the horseback riding experience, we were dropped off in the town of Waialua for some free time until the meeting time. We took a lunch break at Island Vintage Coffee and had an acai bowl and a veggie bagel plate. It was very delicious, and my wife really enjoyed the bagel sandwich. After that, we strolled around the town, visiting clothing stores and shops, and when we got thirsty, we ordered shave ice. There was quite a line, but it moved quickly, so we didn’t have to wait too long. On the way back in the car, I was able to sleep soundly, and we got back before 3:00 PM, so it didn’t affect anything afterward. I think it was a really good optional tour.

ハレイワ（ノースショア）までの途中、ドールプランテーションで休憩があります。
トイレ休憩やお土産物を見るのも良いでしょう。私は、写真を撮りTシャツを購入しました。その後、牧場まで連れて行ってもらい、乗馬体験のスタートです。ドライバーさんは日本語ぺらぺらなので、行きの道中におおよその説明をしてくれます。というか牧場のスタッフの方々は全て現地の方なので、日本語は通じませんw　でもフレンドリーに接してくださるので見よう見まねで全然大丈夫でした。子供も日本で馬には乗ったことがあったのですが、引き馬でなく自分で動かすのは初めて。しかも1時間近く乗りますので、最初は不安でしたが、馬さん達も非常に大人しく、すぐに慣れて安心して見ていられました。それよりも自分のお尻が痛かったですw　天候も良くて、馬に乗りながらビーチ沿いを歩いていると時の流れをゆっくりに感じて、貴重な体験をしているなぁとしみじみ感じてしまいました。日本ではこうはいかないと・・・　また機会あれば体験したいですが、普段使わない足の筋肉が酷使されているため、馬から降りた直後は心地よい筋肉痛を感じることをご了承ください。
乗馬体験の後はワレイワの街で下ろしてもらい、集合時間までフリータイム。アイランドビンテージコーヒーでお昼休憩を取り、アサイーボウルとベジベーグルのプレートを食べました。非常に美味で、妻がベーグルサンドにハマってました。その後は街をぶらつき、洋服屋、雑貨屋さんを巡り、喉が乾いたところでシェイブアイスを注文。結構な人が並んでいましたが、回転が早いのでそんなに待つことなくありつけました。帰りの車の中ではぐっすり寝ることもでき、15:00前には帰って来れたので、その後に影響することもなく、非常に良いオプショナルツアーではないかなと思いました。

It's a bit expensive, but you should choose the PM course. The AM course can be cold if it's not sunny. When it's cloudy or rainy, the water visibility is low and it feels cold. The snorkeling equipment is old and there isn't enough, so I recommend buying some at ABC Store before going.

多少高いがPMコースにするべき。AMコースは晴れていないと寒い。
曇りや雨だと、水の透明度も低く冷たく感じる。シュノーケル機材も古く数も足りないので、ABCストアで買って行くのをお勧めする。

I wanted my grandchildren to experience various activities at the Polynesian Cultural Center, so we went as a family of nine, including my four grandchildren (ages 0, 2, 10, and 11). Children aged 0 and 2 are free, and those aged 10 and 11 get half price. Other tours don’t offer such benefits, so we were able to participate at a reasonable cost. We had a great time exploring the six villages and experiencing Polynesian culture, as well as enjoying a canoe tour.

Since very little Japanese was spoken, it was difficult to understand how to use the voucher for entry and the announcements regarding pickup times and locations. Japanese brochures are available at the entrance.

ポリネシアンカルチャーセンターで子どもたちに色々と体験させたいと思い、孫4人(0歳2歳10歳11歳)を含め一家9人で行きました。0歳2歳は無料、10歳11歳は半額。他のツアーではこのような特典がないので、リーズナブルに参加することができました。6つ村を巡ってポリネシア文化体験、カヌーツアーと楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
日本語がほとんど通じなかったので、バウチャーを使っての入園の仕方や迎えの時間と場所のアナウンスが分かりにくかったです。
日本語版のリーフレットは、入口でもらえます。

I had a wonderful night in Hawaii♡ It started while it was still bright in the evening, and I enjoyed the transition of the sky from dusk to night♪

とても素晴らしいHawaiiの夜を過ごす事ができました♡夕方明るいうちから始まり､夕暮れから夜になる空の移り変わりも楽しめました♪

My son had the best experience all thanks to Gio, thank you and your crew.

Last time, I participated in a different sandbar tour with Veltra around the same time, but it was so deep that my daughter, who is nearly 140 cm tall, couldn't touch the bottom, and it was cold, so we wanted to try again. It was really great!! We saw a lot of fish and were able to do many marine sports, which was the best. Even my 9-year-old daughter, who can't swim at all, had no problems with snorkeling for the first time. The banana boat was also fantastic. I would love to participate again. If I had to say something, I wish there were a few more drinks available...

前回、同じ時期にベルトラの別のサンドバーツアーに参加しましたが、140センチ近くある娘の足が付かないほど深くて、かつ寒くて今回リベンジ。凄く良かったです！！魚もたくさん見れて、マリンスポーツもたくさん出来て最高でした。全く泳げないシュノーケリングも初体験の9才の娘でも問題ありませんでした。バナナボートも最高でした。また参加したいです。強いて言うなら、もうちょっとドリンク類置いて欲しかったな、、、

About 15 people, including Australians and African Americans, boarded the boat together. All the explanations were in English, which made it quite challenging to understand, but it was okay because I could grasp the atmosphere. The views were amazing, and the breeze felt great!

オーストラリア人や、アフリカ系の黒人たちと15名ほどが一緒に船に乗りました。
説明も全て英語で、聞き取りも大変でしたが、雰囲気で分かるから大丈夫。
最高の景色と風が気持ち良かったです！

I was hesitant to participate because I'm not good with heights, but I decided to join since it was a special opportunity. Once I got up there, the fear disappeared, and I was just able to enjoy the wonderful scenery. It was an extraordinary experience. Before I knew it, it was over, and I was laughing. The final landing was expertly done by the professionals, gently touching down in the sea. It really got my adrenaline pumping. The boat was quite rocky, so a strong motion sickness pill is a must.

高い所は苦手で参加するか迷いましたが、せっかくなのでと参加しました。
上がってしまえば怖さはなく、ただただ素敵な景色が見える♪非日常な体験です。
ワーワー言っているうちに終わります笑
最後の着水はプロの技で上手に海にポチョンとつけてくれました。テンション上がります。
船の揺れはすごいのでガッチリ効く酔い止め必須です。

Cousin Gaby was hilarious and informative. The site was breathtaking.

We enjoyed this trip a lot. The crew did they best to make sure we had good time and were safe. Live music was awesome!

The staff were very kind, and it was a fun experience. They do some really enjoyable things, so let's keep the energy high!

スタッフな方もとても親切で楽しい経験でした。なかなか楽しいこともしてくれるので、テンション高めいきましょう。

It was a very good and fun experience, from pushing out the canoe to lifting it up, together with the staff. We paddled out to the open sea and rode the waves. I definitely want to recommend it.

カヌーを押し出すところから、押し上げる迄、スタッフの方達といっしょで、とてもいい　楽しい経験でした。沖まで漕いで、波に乗って。　是非ともおすすめしたいです。
