All Reviews for Teen Adventures (Ages 13-17)

I purchased four tickets intending to participate twice with my son and wife, but we were forced into a single ride with three family members. When I requested a refund for one ticket at the end, they refused, claiming it was longer and more expensive instead. However, in reality, it lasted only about four or five minutes and didn't even reach 150 meters in height. I later found that a third of the $30 photo service shots were failures. The staff was friendly, but overall... it was disappointing.

息子と妻、息子と自分のペア2回で参加するつもりで４人分のチケットを購入したのにも関わらず勝手に家族3人同乗の1回にさせられました。解散の際に1人分のチケット代の返金を求めたらその代わりにもっと高くもっと長くやったからと拒否。。しかし実際には４，５分位で高さもぜんぜん150メートルに届かず。30ドルの写真サービスも後で確認したら三分の一が失敗ショット。。。スタッフの態度は親切だったが、全般的に・・・残念でした。。

There were no staff members who could speak Japanese, so after the zip line activity, I thought it was lunchtime since there were no other participants, but there was no explanation about where to eat, which felt a bit unkind! I think it would have been better if they had a Japanese-speaking staff member or provided a schedule at the beginning. The driver who picked us up drove recklessly, using sudden brakes and sharp turns, which was scary. The return trip was fine, though.

日本語を話せるスタッフがいない為、ジップラインが終わった後、他の参加者がいなくなったのでランチタイムだろうと思ったがどこで食べるのかの説明もなく少し不親切❗️
スケジュールがわかっていたら対応出来たと思うので日本語が話せるスタッフを置くか、スケジュール表を作成して最初に渡しておいた方が親切かなぁと思います。
お迎えに来た運転手は運転が雑で急ブレーキや急ハンドルで怖かった。帰りは大丈夫でした

It was really awesome experience due to the friendliness of the crew and the weather we had that day was just perfect. The burger that we were given for lunch was perhaps the best burger I've had on the sea. Definitely better than my expectations.

I participated with my fifth-grade niece. At first, she was scared, but after trying it once, she said it was fun! (The first ride was a gentle line, but from the second ride on, it was a decent height and length.) We took a big jeep to the location of the lines after the first ride, so there was no turning back! It’s guaranteed to be exhilarating! Although Japanese is not understood, I was able to enjoy it even though I can't speak English ^_^

小学5年生の姪っ子と参加しました。
姪っ子は、最初は怖がっていたのですが1回すると、楽しい！と。(1回目は緩やかなラインだった為、2回目からは、そこそこの高さ、長さのラインに。)
2回目以降のライン場所まで大きなジープで行くので、後戻りもできません！
スカッと！する事間違いなし！
日本語は通じませんが、英語が話せない私でも楽しめました^_^

You will board the submarine after about a 15-minute boat ride. Then, you will spend quite a long time moving around the seabed in the submarine. It can make you feel seasick. Many people experienced motion sickness. I recommend that those who are prone to seasickness take some medication before going. However, I was happy to see a sea turtle. The crew members were all very kind.

15分ぐらい船に乗ってサブマリンに乗り込みます。それから結構長い時間サブマリンで海底を動き回ります。酔います。結構な人が船酔いしてました。酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んで行かれることをオススメします。でも、ウミガメに会えたのは嬉しかったです。船員の方々は皆さん優しかったです、

Concerns for Japanese people:
- Not being able to communicate in Japanese
- Not knowing when to give tips

Is that about it?
It's like a well-trained horse just following the guide. There will probably be various explanations from the guide along the way, but since I can't understand English, there won't be any.
I think it would be good to sell tours that include tips for Japanese customers.

日本人に心配だと思う所
○日本語が通じない
○チップの渡すタイミングがわからない

これぐらいですかね？
よく調教された馬で、ガイドさんの後をついていくだけ
途中、色々とガイド説明があるんだろうけど、英語理解できないので無し
日本人向けにチップ込みツアーの販売が良いと思う

Since I participated during the New Year period, it felt different from the usual place. I enjoyed the sunset and the evening atmosphere at that time. I chose a great seat, right in the center at the very front, and it was moving to see the hula dance up close.

The food was served buffet style. There was a wide variety, including salads, meats, rice, noodles, and desserts. I could order up to three drinks with a ticket, so I ordered Mai Tai and beer.

There were many types of hula dances, and I was able to see about ten different groups perform. The beautiful movements of the hula were very captivating, and the powerful dances by the men using fire sticks were impressive as well.

年末年始に参加したのでいつもの場所とは違ったようですが、
時間帯的に夕焼けの日の落ちる感じと夜の雰囲気を楽しめて良かったです。
良い席にしたのでど真ん中の一番前の席で間近でフラダンスが観れて感動しました。

ごはんはビュッフェスタイルです。
サラダやお肉、ごはんや麺類、デザートまで種類は豊富でした。
飲み物は3つまで頼めるチケットだったのでマイタイやビールなどを注文。

フラダンスの種類？も豊富で全部で10組くらいのフラダンスを見ることができました。フラダンスの美しい動きはとても魅力的でしたし、男性が火の棒を使って力強いダンスをするのも迫力があって良かったです。

There were two instructors, and they seemed to have a bad relationship. One casually rode the waves during the lesson, while the other spoke poorly of the other, creating an awkward atmosphere. Additionally, when I purchased the photos, I was surprised to find that they included pictures of everyone. There was a significant imbalance in the number of photos for each person, which was disappointing. Personally, I felt that my own photos were far fewer than I had expected, and I regretted buying them.

インストラクターが2人いて、仲が悪そうだった。
1人はレッスンの間に気ままに波に乗ったり、もう1人は相手を悪く言ったりしていて気まずかった。
また、写真を購入したら全員分の写真が入っており、驚いた。
1人1人の写真の数の偏りも激しく、残念だった。
個人的には自分の写真が期待よりはるかに写真が少なく、買わなければよかったと思った。

We dive to about 120 feet deep, but even in shallower areas, you can see many small fish and sea turtles. We also go right next to a sunken ship. Interestingly, the wing section of the YS-11 has become a home for fish.

水深120ftぐらいまで潜りますが、浅い場所でも小魚や海亀を多数見ることができます。沈没船の真横にも行きます。興味深いのはYS-11の主翼部分が魚の家になっていることです。

The leader spoke English, so I couldn't understand the guide very well. The scenery itself was amazing.

I made a reservation for 15:30, and the meeting time was at 11:00. I thought I would have a lot of free time, but when I checked in, I was guided to a horseback riding session starting at 12:00.

I'm glad I was able to do it early, but it was a bit of a mystery why the horseback riding was scheduled for 15:30. My father had to cancel the two-hour horseback riding due to a foot injury, but on the day of, there were openings, and we were able to take a bus with a Japanese-speaking guide.

リーダーは英語なので、ガイドがよくわかりません。
景色自体は最高です。

15:30に予約して、集合時間は11時でした。
暇をもて余すんだろうなと思って受付したら、12時からの乗馬に案内されました。

はやくにできてよかったですが、なぜ15:30の乗馬案内になっているか、ちょっと謎でした。父親は足を痛めたので2時間の乗馬をキャンセルしたのですが、当日、空きがあり、日本語ガイド付きのバスに乗れました。

My husband wasn't feeling up to swimming in the ocean, but once we reached the sandbar, we played beach volleyball and got caught up in snorkeling, losing track of time and having a great time. As it was my husband's first time snorkeling, he was amazed by the beautiful coral reefs and the schools of fish, repeatedly exclaiming, "This is great! It's beautiful!" Since there were staff who spoke Japanese, we felt no anxiety, and as the boat was primarily for Japanese tourists, we made friends with the people sitting next to us. Under the blue sea and sky of Hawaii, we spent time with the bright and kind staff, learned about the Hawaiian spirit of cherishing nature, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you very much.

夫は海で泳ごうという気持ちになれなかったのですが、サンドバーについたら、ビーチバレーをしたり、シュノーケリングに夢中になったり、時間を忘れて楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。シュノーケリングが初めての夫は、きれいなサンゴ礁や群がる魚達の様子に感動して「よかった～！きれいだ～！」の連発でした。日本語のできるスタッフでしたから不安もなく、さらに日本人観光客用の船でしたからほとんど日本人で隣の席の方たちとも仲良くなりました。ハワイの青い海と青空の下で、明るく優しいスタッフと一緒に過ごして、自然を大切にするハワイスピリットを学び、満喫しました。ありがとうございました。

I experienced the 150m!

Everyone says it's not scary and it's amazing, but it was really scary!! Haha. However, it was thrilling and so much fun (^ - ^). It seems there haven't been any accidents for about 38 years, so it's safe.

I put my iPhone in a waterproof case that hangs around my neck and took videos from the sky.

Motion sickness medication is a must. Even with it, I felt a bit uneasy, haha. The little ones who didn't take any were completely down.

However, there was fun music playing on the boat, and the captain was very cheerful! When taking photos, he kept saying "Kiss!" to the couples, haha. We exchanged videos with the couples on the boat and later swapped them via AirDrop.

They picked us up by bus, and the driver was also very cheerful, giving us recommendations for shops in the city. I tipped the captain $20 and the driver $10!

150mを体験しました！

みんな、こわくない、最高でしたと書いてますが、めっちゃこわいです！！笑笑
でも、スリルがあってとっても楽しかったです(^-^)
38年くらい事故なしで安全みたいです。
防水で首から下げるタイプのケースに入れて、上空にもiPhoneを持って行って動画を撮りました。

酔い止めは必須です。飲んでても危うかった笑
飲んでないちびっこは見事にダウン。

ただ、船内は楽しい音楽がかかっていて、船長はとっても愉快！写真を撮るとき、カップルに対して、チュー！と連呼笑
カップルさんと船から動画を撮り合いして、後でAirDropで交換しました。
バスで迎えに来てもらいましたが、その方もとっても愉快で、街中のオススメのお店を教えてくれました。船長に20ドル、運転手に10ドルチップをわたしました！

Since we switched places with the previous group at the water's edge, there was no guidance before boarding, but they provided instructions in Japanese, so I was able to enjoy it without any issues.

前の人達と水際で交代して乗ったので、乗る前の指導が何もなかったですが、日本語も言ってくれるので 困ることなく楽しめました。

Thank you we had a great time. We appreciated the discount, and everyone was very professional and courteous. The crew was Very friendly and gave us a great time. Thanks for the memory !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I

Better to go ther on sunny day. Better to bring lunch box by your self

The sandbar was deeper than I imagined from the pictures, and my 6-year-old child seemed to struggle for breath every time a wave hit, quickly wanting to get back on the boat. The weather that day wasn't very good, and the wind made it quite cold, which contributed to my child's lack of enjoyment. However, the local guides and all the staff were really fun and great people, which was wonderful. I hope to go again in the summer when my child is a bit older.

画像から想像したよりもサンドバーは深さがあって6歳のうちの子は波を被るたびに息苦しそうにしてすぐにボートへ上がってしまいました。
当日は天気があまりよくなくて、風で結構寒かったことも子供が楽しめなかった原因になってしまいました。
けれど、現地のガイドをはじめスタッフの皆さんは本当にとても楽しく、よい人ばかりですごくよかったです。
もう少し子供が大きくなったら、今度は夏に行ってみたいなと思います。

I used the service in early January. It might just be the timing, but the day we participated was very windy and quite cold. We borrowed wetsuits, but it was still chilly in the water, making it hard to stay in for long! There were other children participating, around elementary school age, but they seemed a bit down due to the cold, so I think families with kids should choose the season wisely. We did get to see the main dolphins, and we could see them up close from the boat. I encouraged my parents in their 60s to join, but I think they would have enjoyed it more if it hadn't been so cold! Even if you can't swim, wearing a life jacket will keep you afloat. As long as you can kick your legs, you'll be fine. Jumping from the boat and splashing into the water takes a bit of courage too. For those trying snorkeling for the first time, practicing in the bath might be a good idea. Also, due to the strong winds, we couldn't use the kayaks, and there were only three paddleboards available for the number of people, so it felt like a first-come, first-served situation. It's better to think of that as a bonus to avoid disappointment. There was one Japanese guide and about three local staff members, but the locals obviously didn't speak Japanese. Even though it was January, the next day was clear and warm, so this really comes down to luck or timing! It's an activity that requires physical strength.

1月初旬に利用しました。これはタイミングかと思いますが、私たちが参加した日はとても風が強く、とにかく寒かったです。ウェットスーツも借りましたが、水の中にも寒くて長くいるのは辛かった！一緒に参加されていた他のお子さん小学生くらいの子たちがいましたが、寒さで元気がなくなってしまって少しかわいそうでしたので、お子様連れの方は季節選ばれた方がいいかと思います。メインのイルカたちには会えて、船の上からでも近くで見ることができました。60代の両親も思い切って参加させましたが、寒くなければもっと楽しめたかな！泳ぎはできなくても、ライフジャケット着ると浮きます。バタ足で進むことさえできれば大丈夫です。船から足を下にジャンプしてザバーンと入るので、そこもちょっと勇気いります。シュノーケル初めての方はお風呂で練習するといいかと思います。あと風が強く、カヤックは出してもらえなかったのと、パドルボードも人数の割に3つしか道具がないので、早い者勝ちみたいになるので、こちらはおまけ程度に考えておいた方ががっかりしなくて良いかと思います。日本人のガイドさんがひとり、現地の方が3人ほどで、現地の方はもちろん日本語は話せないです。同じ1月でも翌日は良く晴れて暖かかったので、こればっかりは運というかタイミングですね！体力が必要なアクティビティです。

I'm afraid of heights, but I made a reservation because my husband loves this kind of thing and I thought he would enjoy it. At first, I regretted it, but after doing the first practice run, I was surprisingly not scared at all and didn't feel like I was falling, which was a relief. After a while, the scenery was the same, and since there were trees around, it didn't feel high at all. I thought maybe halfway would be enough because I was tired, but it turned out to be a great experience that I'll remember for a lifetime.

高所恐怖症なんですが旦那さんがこーゆうの大好きなので喜ぶかな？と予約しました。
最初は後悔しましたが練習用の1本目をやったら
意外と落ちる感じがなく怖い気持ちは無かったので安心しました。途中からは景色も同じでなんなら木が茂っていたので高く感じなかったし
疲れたのもあり半分でいいかな？とも思いましたが一生に一度のいい体験になりました。

I participated in the same tour twice and heard the same stories (´;ᴗ;`). I thought we would be able to eat more fruits while exploring the botanical garden, but we only looked at the trees and listened to explanations (´;ᴗ;`). It was nice to be able to eat fresh macadamia nuts \( ˆoˆ \)/, but since it takes up a whole day, I feel like I might not participate again next time (´;ᴗ;`). The scenery was really great!

同じようなツアーに2回参加し、同じ話をききました(　´;ᴗ;`　)植物園をまわるのも、もっとフルーツを食べたりできるのかと思っていましたが、木をみて説明をきくだけでした(　´;ᴗ;`　)生のマカダミアナッツをたべたりできたのはよかったです\( ˆoˆ )/ですが、1日つぶれてしまうので次回の参加はないかなという感じでした(　´;ᴗ;`　)景色はすごいよかったです！

We traveled on the ship with three generations of our family, from ages 3 to 72. The large windows provided great views, and while the food and desserts were a bit too sweet, they were still quite delicious. On the way back, the bus took us through a street with Christmas illuminations with the lights turned off, which was enjoyable until the very end.

However, there was no announcement, which left us a bit confused about when to go for food and whether we could sit on the second floor without ordering drinks.

Despite the many positives, my rating is average due to the dishes. They seemed to have only been washed on the surface, with grease remaining on the underside, and sometimes they were completely dirty. It felt wasteful, especially since the crew members were very attentive. I hope this can be improved.

3歳〜72歳まで家族3世代で乗船。窓が大きいので景色も良く、料理もスイーツは甘すぎでしたがほどよく美味しく、帰りのバスは明かりを消してクリスマスイルミネーションのある通りを通ってくれて最後まで楽しめました。

ただ何もアナウンスがないので、料理をとりにいくタイミング、2階はドリンクを飲まなくても座っていいのか、戸惑いが少しありました。

良いことが多かったものの評価が普通なのは…食器類。表面しか洗ってなくて裏は油汚れが残っていたり、たまに全面汚れていたりしたので、せっかく船員さんも丁寧な方たちなのにもったいないなぁと思いました。是非改善を。

I thought the sandbar would be a beach, but it seems that during the winter season, it only goes up to about knee height. It was said that it's better to enjoy it in the afternoon if you want to take your time. If I participate next time, I think I'll choose the afternoon. I also had fun taking pictures of sea turtles!

サンドバーって砂浜になると思いましたが、冬の時期はまだ膝の下くらいまでだそうです。ゆっくり楽しむなら午後の方が良いとの事でした。次回参加するなら午後をチョイスしてみようと思います。
ウミガメの撮影も出来楽しかったよ！

I participated in the 150-meter event, and my 6-year-old daughter also enjoyed it. It seems she wasn't scared at all. I'm very happy to have received the photos in digital format. I definitely recommend this tour!

150メートルに参加しましたが6歳娘も楽しめました。怖くなかったようです。写真もデータで頂け嬉しい限りです。是非参加オススメツアーです。

I boarded the 10 AM tour with a guide who spoke Japanese.

Along the way, we saw sea turtles several times, which made both my children and my wife very happy. Of course, I was also extremely satisfied with the tour. My child said, "I want to ride again!"

The scenery on the way to where the submarine is docked was beautiful, and from the second floor of the boat, you can see Diamond Head, so I definitely recommend going to the second floor!

The ladder mentioned in the precautions for boarding the submarine is actually not a ladder but a staircase (imagine a steep, narrow staircase), and my 6-year-old child and my wife had no trouble getting on and off.

However, since it is quite steep, I think it is essential to follow the precautions that say to "wear sneakers" and "wear pants."

Considering the cost of living in Hawaii, I think the price is quite reasonable.

That said, I will point out three potential downsides that might be considered negatives by some people.

First, when gathering, you go to the counter inside the Hilton Hawaiian Village, but not much Japanese is spoken here. You check in at this counter, but you have to move to the boarding area for the boat on your own (it's very close, though).

You will see a boat with "Atlantis" written in large letters, so you should be able to find it, but please be aware that this is not the type of package tour where your name is called at the reception, and you walk together with the guide to the boarding area.

Also, while the 10 AM tour has a guide who speaks Japanese, I found that I could only understand about 50-60% of what was said in Japanese (laughs).

I’m not dissatisfied; it just feels very Hawaiian, but if you expect 100% perfect Japanese, you might be a bit disappointed (laughs).

Additionally, as mentioned in the tour precautions and many reviews, you will travel by boat from the boarding area to the submarine, and depending on the wind conditions that day, those who are sensitive may experience seasickness.

When passengers move from the boat to the submarine, the boat will naturally be docked close to the submarine, but it can also sway quite a bit, so there is a possibility of seasickness here as well.

I recommend that anyone who is worried about seasickness or is prone to motion sickness take anti-nausea medication in advance.

日本語でお話し頂けるガイドさんが添乗される午前10時の回に搭乗しました。

途中で海ガメも何回か見られて、子供はもちろん妻も喜んでいました。もちろん私も大満足のツアーでした。子供は「また乗りたい！」と言っていました。

潜水艦が停泊している沖に行くまでの景色も綺麗で、船の2Fからはダイヤモンドヘッドが見えますので絶対に2Fに行く事をオススメします！

注意事項に書いてある潜水艦への乗船の際のハシゴも、実際はハシゴではなく階段状になっており（急で、足場が狭めの階段とご想像ください）6才の子供やうちの妻も訳なく乗降できました。

ただし、かなり急ですので、やはり注意事項に書いてある「スニーカーなどを着用」「ズボン着用」は必須かと思います。

価格も、ハワイの物価を考えれば相当額だと思います。

そんな中であえてマイナス点と言いますか、人によってはマイナス点になりそうな部分を3点挙げます。

まず集合の際、ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジ内のカウンターに行きますが、ここでは余り日本語が通じません。受付はまずこのカウンターで行いますが、船への乗船場所へは自身で移動します。（目と鼻の先ですが）

英語で大きく「Atlantis」と書かれた船が船着き場に来るので分かるとは思いますが、いわゆる日本人観光客御用達のパッケージツアーのように、受付の所で名前を呼ばれてガイドさんと共に船着き場までゾロゾロ行くタイプではないので気を付けてください。

また、10時の回は潜水艦のガイドさんが日本語をお話しされる、との事でしたが、確かに日本語でのガイドを直接してくださいますが5〜6割くらいしか理解できない日本語でした(笑)

不満ではありませんし、何ともハワイらしいな、と言う感想ですが、100％きれいな日本語を期待されて行くと肩透かしかもしれません(笑)

それと、ツアーの注意事項や多くのレビューでも書かれていますが、船着き場から潜水艦の所まで船で移動しますが、その日の風の状況により船が弱い人は船酔いする可能性があります。

また、船から潜水艦へお客さんが移動する際には当然船が潜水艦の近くに停泊するのですが、ここでも結構船が揺れますので、同様に船酔いする可能性があります。

船酔いが心配な人、乗り物酔いしやすい人は事前に必ず酔い止めを飲む事をオススメします。

It was a really fun tour!!
Fortunately, we were able to see a pod of dolphins, which was moving. I almost cried in the water.
Even if we hadn't seen the dolphins, the guide and crew were incredibly enthusiastic, so I think you would still enjoy it!
However, the viewing point was where surfers were riding the waves, so it was quite bumpy and I felt a bit nauseous (laughs). Motion sickness medication is a must!
Also, since you never know where the dolphins will appear, you'll be swimming around searching for them. So, you'll need some stamina.

But in the end, I'm really glad I participated!

すごく楽しいツアーでした！！
幸運にもイルカの群れをみることができて
感動。海の中で泣きそうになりました。
ただもしイルカを見れなかったとしても
ガイドさん、船員さんたちがむちゃくちゃ盛り上げてくれるので
楽しめるとおもいます！
ただ、見るポイントがサーファーが波にのる所だったので
揺れが激しく、ゲロゲロでした（笑）酔い止め必須です！
あと、イルカはどこに出るかわからないので
泳ぎまくって探します。なので体力必要です。

でも結果的に本当に参加してよかったです！

The most friendly and courteous staff and crew. Great time snorkeling and sailing. Very nice boat and equipment. Definitely on my to do again list. Thank you and aloha.

Among my past dinner cruise experiences, this one had the most relaxed atmosphere and was quite pleasant. However, it also had the least appealing food for my taste. Although it was a buffet, all the meat dishes were off-puttingly smelly to me, and the vegetables were not fresh at all; everything was wilted. As for the bread, it was dry and crumbly... well, this is a common trend with bread in overseas places, especially in America, but I felt like it took all the moisture out of my mouth. I was amazed at how low the quality could be. In other words, I took one bite of the food and didn’t touch it again. I think sandwiches or hamburgers would have been a hundred times better. Everything else was great, but when the food is bad, it ruins the whole experience. Recently, Hawaii has seen a significant increase in high-quality restaurants compared to the past (partly because more owners and culinary directors are Japanese or of Japanese descent), so I was quite shocked by the food this time. This is purely my personal opinion as a food analyst (I do restaurant ratings and such).

過去のディナークルーズ体験の中では一番ゆったりとした雰囲気と快く過ごせたと思う。が、しかし過去体験の中で最も料理が私の口には合わなかった。ビュッフェ方式だか、肉料理は全て私にとって臭く、野菜も新鮮とは言えず、どれもがしんなり、さらばパンなら…が、これまたパサパサでモサモサ…まぁ海外、特にアメリカのパンに多い傾向ですが、口の中の水分を全て持って行かれるかと思いました。よくここまで質を落とせるなと思うほどのレベルです。すなわち料理は一口食べただけでその後はまったく手を付けずじまい…。サンドイッチとかハンバーガーなどの方が100倍良いと思います。それ以外はとても良いのに料理がダメだと全てが台無しなんですよ。最近のハワイは昔に比べてとてもレベルアップしたレストランが増えてきた（オーナーや料理ディレクターが日本人か日系のところが増えたのでという理由も少なくない）ので、今回はビックリするくらい料理でした。あくまでもフードアナリスト（レストランの格付けとかしております）としての私の極めて個人的な見解です。

We participated as a family of four on a personal trip. I was nervous until we arrived since we booked online. There was no shuttle service, so I debated whether to rent a car or take a taxi until the end. Our reservation was for a meeting time of 8:30 and a start time of 9:30. Our hotel was the Alohilani Resort in Waikiki, which is about a 45-minute drive away, so we had to leave the hotel by at least 7:30. In the end, we took a taxi to the location (about $100 including tip). There are only two routes: one along the coast and the other through the mountains, and we chose the mountain route. Along the way, we encountered a typical morning rain in Hawaii, which made me think, "Oh no!" But by the time we arrived, it had completely cleared up and was sunny!

We quickly checked in and were told to come to the buggy boarding area by 9:15. We stored our belongings in a locker for $5, which we could open and close multiple times. As time passed, many people kept arriving. At the buggy boarding area, we watched a short Japanese DVD for less than 10 minutes, chose our helmets, and finally got on. We wore sneakers that could get dirty, while others borrowed something like Crocs (for free). Before leaving, I read other experiences and worried that my daughter and I wouldn't be able to drive, but we had no problems at all. We went around with a couple from Austria, making a group of six. The filming locations were interesting, though not as famous as those at Universal Studios or Disney, and the ranch we passed had cows that stopped for the buggies. The nature was magnificent, and the views were never boring. The staff even made fun videos, and they were very nice.

After finishing, it was just lunchtime, so my daughter and I ordered hamburgers at the restaurant, while my husband ordered a steak set with teriyaki sauce. The meat was from pasture-raised cows, and it was delicious!

On the way back, we used the city bus. It seems there are two buses an hour during the day, but they don't come on time. This is Hawaiian time! We waited for about 30 minutes. Finally, we boarded, and it took an hour to get to Ala Moana, costing $5.25 per person. We took the same route back to Waikiki, with locals getting on and off, and the bus was clean. It was a valuable experience since we don't often get a chance to ride the city bus.

個人旅行で家族4人で参加。ネットで予約したため現地に着くまでドキドキ。送迎がないので最後までレンタカーを借りるかタクシーで迷いました。予約が取れたのが集合が8:30でスタートが9:30。ホテルがワイキキのアロヒラニリゾートで　そこから車で45分くらいかかるため　少なくとも7:30にはホテルを出ないといけなく　結局タクシーで現地へ行きました。（チップも含めて約100ドル）海岸側を通るか山を抜けていくしか2とおりの道しかないのですが　山側を抜けていきました。途中ハワイ特有の朝の雨が降ってきて　え～！と思いましたが　現地に着くとすっかりやんで快晴！
すぐに受付を済ませて　9:15にバギー乗り場へ来るように言われました。荷物は5ドルで何度も開け閉めできるロッカーへ。時間がたつにつれてたくさん人がどんどんやってきます。
バギー乗り場で10分もない日本語のＤＶＤを見て　ヘルメットを選びいよいよ乗ります。私たちは汚れてもいいスニーカーでしたが　そうでない方々はクロックスのようなものを借りてました（無料）出国前に他の体験談を読んで　私と高校生の娘は運転できないのでは…と心配でしたが　全く問題なく運転できました。私たちとオーストリアから来た夫婦と6人で回りました。ロケ地もＵＳＪやディズニー程ではないですが面白かったし　途中の牧場も牛がバギーが通るまでちゃんと止まってくれますし　何しろ自然が雄大で眺めも飽きません。スタッフさんもおもしろ動画を作ってくれたり　とてもいいかたでした。
終わってちょうどランチタイムなので　レストランで私と娘はハンバーガー、主人は照り焼きソースを絡めたステーキセットを注文。お肉は放牧されている牛のもの。これもおいしかったですよ！
帰りは路線バスを利用。昼間は1時間2本あるようで　それでも時間どうりにには来ません。ここはハワイアンタイム！30分くらい待ったでしょうか。ようやく乗って、アラモアナまで、1時間。一人＄5.25。来た道と同じルートでワイキキまで。途中ローカルの方々が乗り降りして　車内もきれいでした。
なかなか路線バスには乗るチャンスもないので貴重な体験でした。

It was my first time on a zip line. At first, I only felt fear, but by the second time, I found myself really enjoying it! The staff spoke in a way I couldn't understand, but their kindness and brightness were really great! I want to study English before my next visit.

初めてのジップラインでした。最初は恐怖心しかありませんでしたが、2回目になるととても楽しんでいる自分がいました！スタッフも言葉は何を言っているのか分かりませんでしたが、親切＋明るさでとても良かったです！次回までに英語を勉強しておきたいと思います。

I had the impression that there would be more beautiful fish, so I was disappointed that I didn't see many (´-`).｡oO. Also, my child gets seasick, and unfortunately, they got sick on the boat we took to get to the submarine. If you are prone to seasickness, it's definitely better to take medication before going.

もう少し沢山の綺麗なお魚がいるイメージで行きましたので、そんなに見れなかったので残念でした（´-`）.｡oO
あと子供が船酔いをするので、潜水艦に行くまでに乗った船で酔ってしまい、残念でした。
船酔いする人は必ず薬を飲んで行かれた方がいいです。

I was hoping to see more of the hula "Auwana" since I'm learning hula, but there were many Tahitian performances, and I felt it was an Americanized entertainment show. However, if you approach it with that mindset, you can enjoy it quite a bit.

フラを習っているので、｢アウアナ｣のフラをもう少し見られるかと期待していたのですが、タヒチアンが多く、アメリカナイズされたエンターテイメントショーだな、と思いました。そう思って臨めば、十分楽しめました。
