All Reviews for Teen Adventures (Ages 13-17)

It was my first time paragliding. I had a wonderful experience in favorable weather. The two guys were very friendly and communicated in English, explaining things with clear gestures. The wind on the boat was pleasant, and the scenery was amazing.

パラセイリング初めてでした。
天候に恵まれた中で、素敵な体験をすることができました。お兄さん２人も、英語でのコミュニケーションでしたが、とてもフレンドリーで、わかりやすいジェスチャーを入れながら説明してくれました。
ボートでの風も気持ちよく、景色も最高でした。

Tour consists of sandbar and coral reef with amazing burger lunch in-between. All gears for snorkeling were provided as well

I knew in advance that the tide wouldn't go below zero, but on this day, it felt like the tide was gradually rising. It was fun to do various activities like stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking. During snorkeling, we were given bread to feed the fish, and many of them came close.

潮位がマイナスにならないことは事前に分かっていたのですが、この日は段々潮位が上がっていく感じでした。
サップやカヤックなど、いろいろなアクティビティができて楽しかったです。
シュノーケリングでは、餌のパンをもらえて、魚がたくさん寄ってきます。

I initially thought about going with a four-wheeler, but the kids said it would be boring since they couldn't drive themselves, so we chose this instead. It was my first time on an e-bike, and I was worried, but there was practice at the beginning, and my middle school and upper elementary school daughters had no problems. The guide was a really nice person, and his explanations were interesting with jokes mixed in. He took a lot of great photos at the photo spots. It was late August in the afternoon, and I was concerned about the heat, but there were many clouds that day, so it was fine.

最初は四輪バギーにしようと思っていたのですが、子供たちが自分で運転できないのはつまらないというので、こちらにしました。Eバイクは初めてなので心配でしたが、最初に練習もあり、中学生と小学校高学年の娘でも問題なかったです。
ガイドさんがとてもいい人で、解説もジョークを交えて面白かったし、フォトスポットでは映える写真をたくさん撮ってくれました。
8月下旬の午後で、暑さが心配でしたが、当日は雲が多くて大丈夫でした。

We were the only Japanese people there, and I was anxious because I didn't understand English, but I managed to understand through gestures and by watching how others did it! At first, it was scary because it swayed a lot, but after that, it just felt amazing!! When we landed, they made sure our feet touched the sea, which was so much fun! I could feel the beautiful scenery and breeze of Hawaii, and it was the best experience! The location was also easy to find, near Kaka'ako, and after we finished, we went shopping and took a walk before heading back! If you love heights, you should definitely try this!

私たちしか日本人はおらず・・・英語がわからず不安でしたが、ジェスチャーや、前の人のやり方をみて理解！
飛び始めはゆらゆら揺れるので怖かったですが、そのあとはただただ気持ちいい！！
降りる時には海に足がつくように楽しませてくれました！
ハワイの景色と風を感じられて、最高の体験ができました！
場所もカカアコ近くでわかりやすく、終わってからも買い物や散歩をして帰りました！
高い所が好きな人はやるべきです！

Meeting at 5:40 AM before sunrise is indeed early, but we were still among the fourth or fifth group to enter the site. We rented a paid option for a parasol and chair set, which I highly recommend due to the strong sunlight. In the morning, there are relatively fewer people, making it enjoyable. Around 10 AM, we had an incredibly lucky surprise when a monk seal suddenly came up on the beach to rest, just about 10 meters from our base. My grandchild had been talking about wanting to see one since before coming to Hawaii, so it was great that we could make that happen by chance. There is a law requiring a distance of over 15 meters from monk seals, so it’s also a good memory that our base had to be moved quickly.

日の出前の５時４０分集合はさすがに早いが、それでも現地では４組〜５組めの入場グループでした。有料OPでパラソル・チェアセットをレンタルしましたが、日差しが強いのでぜひお勧めします。午前中はヒトも比較的少なく楽しめます。１０時頃に私たちのベース基地から１０ｍくらいの場所に突然にモンクシールが砂浜にあがってきて休憩するという超ラッキーサプライズに出会えました。一緒の孫がハワイに来る前から会いたいと話していたので、偶然にも叶えてあげられてよかったです。モンクシールには１５ｍ以上距離を取らなければいけない法律があるので、我々のベース基地は速攻移動させられたのもいい思い出です。

The sandbar is located inside the bay, so the waves were very calm. I usually get seasick, but this time I was fine. We saw turtles from the boat, and finally, we went snorkeling around the coral reef.

サンドバーが湾内なので波がとても穏やかでした。船酔いしやすい方ですが、今回は大丈夫でした。亀は船の上から見て、最後に珊瑚礁の周りをシュノーケリングしました。

The tour at Kualoa Ranch was amazing! The views were absolutely breathtaking, everything was very well organized, and the guide shared lots of interesting stories that made the experience even more special. Definitely worth it!

This is my second time using this service, and I felt that it was a friendly and enjoyable surfing experience where I could stand up and ride the waves right away. I have tried other schools at Waikiki Beach, but this lesson is definitely the best. I will be visiting again soon, so thank you!

今回で2度目の利用になりますが、いずれもすぐに立って滑ることができ、親切で楽しいサーフィン体験スクールだと感じました。ワイキキビーチの他のスクールでも体験しましたが、やはりこちらのレッスンが一番です。近いうちにまた伺いますので、よろしくお願いします。

I took the shuttle bus from the Sheraton Hotel. The seats were unreserved and the air conditioning was quite strong. When we got off the bus, only the Japanese participants were called and given an explanation of the itinerary in Japanese. The tour itself was explained only in English, but the atmosphere was enjoyable.

シェラトンホテルから送迎バスで向かいました。車内は自由席でエアコンは冷房強め。
バスを降りると日本人だけ呼ばれて日本語で行程などの説明があります。ツアー自体は英語の説明のみでしたが、雰囲気は楽しかったです。

We set off with four groups, including ourselves. The boat that takes you to the flying area is already an attraction! We headed offshore while enjoying the sea breeze. The staff were cheerful, and we had a great time.

私たち含め、4組で出発しました。
飛ぶところまで行く船がもはやアトラクション！潮風を浴びながら沖合に出ました。
スタッフの方も陽気で楽しい時間を過ごせました。

This tour was the perfect amount of time and offered so many different things to do. Nothing better than enjoying the day with your teenaged kids and they actually enjoyed being together. Thanks to everyone, especially the driver for the tubing/banana boat. So much fun!

Loved it , but wish we could’ve done more of Jurassic park stuff. But overall fun!

I can't speak English, but they explained things in an easy-to-understand way, allowing me to fly safely, enjoyably, and refreshingly. Towards the end, I felt a sense of unity with the unfamiliar foreigners, as if we were a family for a moment.

英会話はできないけど、わかりやすい言葉で説明して頂き、安全に楽しく、爽快に飛ぶことができました。
最後の方は知らない外国人達と一体感がうまれ、ひとときの家族の様でした。

It was difficult for me to make a reservation for Hanauma Bay on my own due to scheduling issues, so I took advantage of this plan that allowed me to have a reservation and enjoy my time at Hanauma Bay freely. I was anxious about my English speaking skills, but there was a guidance sheet in Japanese, and the driver was able to understand our limited English, which made communication enjoyable. The entrance fee was collected by the driver, and a participant from an English-speaking country paid for everyone.

Since it was my first time snorkeling, I borrowed a life jacket. In the early morning, it was a bit chilly, so the life jacket helped keep me warm and was also useful for snorkeling. Even in shallow areas, I could see fish swimming, including the humuhumunukunukuapua'a! I would like to request this again if the opportunity arises. Thank you very much.

自力でハナウマ湾の入場予約を取るには日程の都合で難しく、予約を取っていただける＋自由にハナウマ湾で遊べるこちらのプランを利用させていただきました。
英語のスピーキングに自信がなく不安でしたが、日本語での案内シートがありドライバーの方も私達の拙い英語の意味を汲み取ってくださり楽しくコミュニケーションが取れました。入場料金はドライバーさんが集め参加者の中にいた英語圏の方がまとめて支払ってくださいました。

初のシュノーケリングだったのでライフジャケットも借りました。早朝だと少し肌寒いくらいなのでライフジャケットが防寒になり、シュノーケリングの助けにもなり役立ちました。浅いところでもお魚が泳いでいてフムフムヌクヌクアプアアも見られました！
また機会があればお願いしたいと思います。
ありがとうございました。

I may not have confirmed everything in advance, but it was quite physically demanding. It's been years since I last went to the ocean. How many times have I gone snorkeling in my life? Given the situation, it's my own fault, but it was tough for someone in their 50s who isn't confident in their physical strength.

It seems that about half of the people were able to see the dolphins. With so many people, if you jump in later, the chances of seeing them decrease. If you're a good swimmer, you might be fine. My child and I weren't able to see them. My husband managed to see them, but he said it wasn't really swimming with the dolphins.

There weren't any impressive fish while snorkeling either. We didn't get to see any sea turtles. It's nature, so it can't be helped.

I've written mostly negative things, but the staff were really wonderful and their dedication was evident. That was a saving grace. Thank you very much.

事前の確認不足かもしれませんが、
体力的にかなりきつかったです。
海に行くのも何年ぶりかしら？
シュノーケリングなんて人生で何回目？
なんて状況でしたので自業自得ですが…
体力に自信の無い５０代には厳しかったです🤣

イルカは半分くらいの人は見れたみたいです。
人数が多過ぎて後の方に飛び込むと
見れる可能性は低くなると思います。
泳ぎが得意な人なら大丈夫かもしれません。
私と子どもは見れませんでした😭
主人はかろうじて見れたそうですが、
イルカと泳ぐ、ではないと言ってました。

シュノーケリングも感動する程の魚はいませんでした。
海ガメにも会えませんでした。
自然相手なので仕方ないですね。

悪い事ばかり書いてしまいましたが、
スタッフさんは本当に良い方達で
一生懸命なのが伝わりました。
それが救いでした。
ありがとうございました。

We love the experience they provide. Music is great. Staff is all good people and the activities are all fun. Definitely recommend doing it.

I was very, very satisfied with the experience. Thank you very much. The horse was gentle and made me feel safe. It seems that a family participating in the same tour accidentally got on a different tour's vehicle, which delayed our departure by about 30 minutes, resulting in a shorter stay at Dole Plantation, and that was disappointing.

とてもとても満足な内容でした。
有難うございます。
馬は大人しいし安心です。
同じツアーに参加のご家族が　違うツアーの車に乗ってしまったようで　３０分程出発が遅れ　ドールプランテーションの滞在が少なくなり　そこが残念でした。

Una valle splendida circondata da due lati da montagne a picco. Abbiamo fatto il circuito movie e sembrava di vivere all'interno di un film . Prima fra tutti i film jurassici.
Nessun problema con i biglietti, tutto ben organizzato e facilmente fruibile.

From start to finish, this excursion was worth every penny! Phenomenal staff and awesome adventures!

Family friendly and safety conscious.

We flew together as a family of three. From above, the deep blue ocean was visible. I was surprisingly amazed at how blue the sea is! Seeing Diamond Head and the city of Honolulu from the ocean was refreshing and truly exhilarating. Our whole family was very satisfied! On our way out on the boat, we even encountered a sea turtle and were overwhelmed by Hawaii's natural beauty.

親子3人で一緒に飛びました。
上空から見えるのは、紺碧の海。海ってこんなに青いんだ！と年甲斐もなく驚きました。海から見るダイヤモンドヘッドやホノルルのまちも新鮮で、まさに爽快。家族一同、大満足でした！
ボートで沖に向かう途中、ウミガメにも会え、ハワイの自然に圧倒されました。

The staff were all cheerful and fun! Both the SUP and canoeing were enjoyable! The snorkeling was a bit cold, but it was great to see so many fish.

スタッフさんが皆明るくて面白い！supもカヌーも楽しかったです！
シュノーケルは少し寒かったけど、お魚がたくさん見られて良かったです。

You can see the culture and dances of the region in each section. It was fun just being there! I accidentally forgot to book the evening luau, so next time I want to see it with the luau included.

セクションごとにその地域の文化や踊りを見ることができる。
いるだけで楽しかった！
間違えて夜のルアウを予約し忘れてしまったので次回はルアウ付きで見たい

We participated with five people: our family of four and my grandfather. After completing the check-in, we had a slight delay in departure because the previous group returned late.

We had a reservation for 4:30 PM. Since we were the only family there, the wait time was minimal, and we finished without any time to feel seasick.

For parasailing, we split into groups of two and three, and everything went smoothly. We also requested photos for $40, and they took various shots for us.

My daughter, grandfather, and I went together, and 150 meters was higher than we expected, offering a breathtaking view. My 78-year-old grandfather was very moved, saying it would be a great memory.

After disembarking, the staff kindly transferred the photo data to my smartphone. I highly recommend this experience if you visit Hawaii.

　家族4人とおじいちゃんと、計5人で参加しました。受付を済ませて、始まりは前のグループが戻ってくるのが遅かったので、少し送れての出発でした。
　16時半からの予約。私たちの家族しかいなかったので、待ち時間が少なく、船酔いする暇もなく終わりました。
　パラセーリングは二人と三人で分かれて、段取り良く進みました。40ドルで写真もお願いしていたので、いろんなショットを撮って頂きました。
　娘とおじいちゃんと三人でしましたが、150mは思った以上に高く、絶景の眺めでした。78歳のおじいちゃんは、冥土の土産になるわーと、とても感動していました。
　下船して受付の方が写真のデータをわざわざ私のスマホに入れてくれました。
ハワイに来たら是非お薦めです。

Transportation and vessel operation were good. Food service and food need improvement. Service was very slow. Food was not served even remotely hot. Our steaks were so rare as to be inedible. A different dessert should be offered as the the one being served has very little taste. The food was a real disappointment.

This was my first time going dolphin watching, and I had a lot of anxiety, but the dolphins came closer than I expected, and the crew shared various stories about Hawaii, which made for a fun time. During snorkeling, the crew was very accommodating to our pace and preferences, which I greatly appreciated. If I have the opportunity to come to Hawaii again, I would like to consider participating in other tours offered by Dolphin University. Thank you very much.

今回初めてのイルカウォッチングで不安も大きかったですが、思っていたよりも近くにイルカたちが来てくれたり、ハワイのことについてクルーの方たちが色々とお話ししてくださったりしたおかげで楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。シュノーケリングでも常にクルーの方がこちらのペースや希望に合わせてくださり大変ありがたかったです。次回ハワイに来る機会があればイルカ大学の他のツアーの参加も考えたいと思っています。ありがとうございました。

It was my first time seeing dolphins up close like this. It felt like I was swimming alongside the dolphins with the Dolphin University boat, and I was able to be with them for a long time.

With the support of Minako, I was able to snorkel safely. I gradually got used to it and was able to move around on my own. Luckily, I also got to see a sea turtle, and I was able to experience everything.

My husband was a bit flustered during his first snorkeling experience and couldn't see the fish or the sea turtle, but he received constant support, so he wants to try again.

The slide afterward was intense and fun, but you have to be careful when sliding, or you'll end up swallowing seawater. I felt a bit seasick a few times when the boat moved quickly, but they kindly checked on me.

If I go snorkeling again, I think I'll choose Dolphin University.

こんなに間近でイルカを見ることができたのは初めてでした。イルカ大学の船と一緒に泳いでくれているようで、ずっとイルカと一緒にいられました。
シュノーケリングはMINAKOさんのサポートのもとで、安心して泳ぐことができました。少しずつ慣れていき、自分でも移動ができるようになりました。運良くウミガメを見ることもできて、全ての体験をすることができました。
夫は初めてのシュノーケリングで慌ててしまい魚もウミガメも見ることができませんでしたが、ずっとサポートしてくださったので、またリベンジしたいと言っています。
その後の滑り台も激しくて面白かったですが、滑る時に注意しないと海水を飲みます。
何度か船が速く移動する時の揺れで船酔いをしましたが、優しく声をかけてくださいました。
またシュノーケリングをやるならイルカ大学にしようと思います。

Coral Crater Adventure Tour was a fun, challenging rope course that was tackled together by our friends - great bonding time, lots of moral support and encouragement provided to each other under the watchful eyes and tips provided by our wonderful guides Derek & Sky who made sure we were safe and provided rescues as needed! Made wonderful memories! Laughed a lot! Conquered fear of heights, fear of maneuvering the rope course with little upper body strength, etc. We all did it and had a fantastic wonderful time with with which great memories and stories are made from!

Had a great time on the boat. The Captain and Staff were so friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend.

I participated with my child (5th grade). It was our first experience with banana boat, stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, and snorkeling, but the water depth was safe enough for adults to stand, so we enjoyed it safely.

子供（小5）と参加しました。バナナボート、Sup、カヤック、シュノーケル、全て初めての体験でしたが、大人の足が届く水深なので安全に楽しめました。
