All Reviews for Teen Adventures (Ages 13-17)

It was my first time overseas and my first parasailing experience, so I was anxious, but the kind support made it enjoyable from start to finish!

はじめての海外で初パラセーリングだったので、不安でしたが最後まで親切な対応で最初から最後まで楽しめました！

Mike our vip tour guide driver was awesome very knowledgeable and interactive making it fun

Loved the quick boat ride out! Felt like most of the time was spent waiting for people to arrive- didn't get a ton of time out on the sand bar

I participated in the 150m jump since I was there anyway. The instructor primarily spoke English, but seemed accustomed to Japanese people, so there was no need to worry as they explained things in simple Japanese during the preparation. When I mentioned it was our honeymoon, the humorous instructor got everyone involved and made it lively. My companion was very scared, but once it started, the scenery was so beautiful that they forgot their fear. You need cash to take photos, but I’m glad I asked. They transfer the data to an SD card and smartphone.

せっかくならと150mで参加しました。
インストラクターの方は基本的に英語ですが、日本人に慣れているようで、準備の時は簡単な日本語で説明してくれるので心配ありませんでした。
ハネムーンだと伝えると周りの参加者を巻き込んで盛り上げてくれるユーモア溢れるインストラクターでした。
同行者はとても怖がっていましたが、はじまると景色がとても綺麗で怖さも忘れてしまったそうです。
写真を撮るのに現金が必要なのですが、お願いしてよかったです。
SDカードとスマホにデータを転送してくれます。

The view from 150 meters high was very pleasant and absolutely amazing! The explanations at the reception and the instructions for putting on the belts on the boat were easy to understand. There were four groups on board, and we were the first, but taking off while receiving cheers from the other groups waiting on the boat and splashing into the sea was also a lot of fun!! My feet and backside got a little wet, but it dried quickly. Since it was a rare and valuable opportunity, I asked for a photo shoot, purchased an SD card, and transferred the data to my smartphone as well. I'm glad I asked for the photos since we couldn't take them ourselves.

150mの高さから見る景色はとても気持ち良く最高でした！
受付での説明、船でのベルトなどの装着説明も分かりやすかったです。4組乗船して、その中で1番目でしたが船で待っている他のグループの人達からの歓声を受けて飛び立つのも、海にポチャッと落ちるのもまた楽しかったです！！足とお尻が少し濡れる程度なのですぐ乾きました。
滅多にない貴重な機会なので写真撮影をお願いしてSDカード購入、スマホにもデータを移行させてもらいました。自分たちでは撮れない写真なので頼んで良かったです。

Every time I come to Hawaii, I want to go to the sandbar! This time, the afternoon tour was a bit less crowded and it was so much fun. The bumper tubes were also a great addition!

ハワイに来たら毎回サンドバーに行きたくなります！今回は午後ツアーで少し空いていてとても楽しかったです。バンパーチューブもつけて最高でした！

Movie site tour was incredible, best scenery of east side of island.

The scenery was beautiful, and the breeze felt nice! It was also fun to dip into the sea when getting off! I would like to participate again.

景色も綺麗で、風もきもちよかったです！
降りる時に海に浸かってそれもまた楽しかったです！また参加したいと思います。

The weather was nice, and the view was amazing. It swayed a bit with the wind, but knowing the sea was below made it not so scary. I think those who are sensitive to motion should take motion sickness medication on the boat. I was mostly fine, but I felt a little queasy after getting off.

天気も良く、見渡す景色が最高でした。
時々風で揺れますが、下が海だと思うとそれほど怖くはなかったです。
船は揺れに弱い人は酔い止めが必要と思います。
私は大丈夫な方ですが、降りた後少し酔った感じがありました。

We had a blast. We signed up for the banana boat add on…it was so much fun. The water was clear and waist deep. We saw turtles and lots of fish. Live music is interactive and the boat provides plenty of shade for when you need a break out of the sun.

I was anxious about the ticket scramble, so I used this service. I received reminder emails multiple times until the day of the event, and they picked me up at the hotel at 5:30 AM. The ride was shared and everything was in English, with no other Japanese passengers. However, they provided a printed sheet in Japanese that included the prohibited items and the pickup time, so there were no issues. It gets quite cold in Hanauma Bay until the sun rises. I think especially Japanese people might find it chilly. Considering the water and air temperature, I believe it's better to go around noon. There was plenty of time, and it was more relaxed compared to the plan with a Japanese instructor. I participated in both, but I think it depends on your purpose. I was able to relax so much that I took a nap for about 30 minutes. We returned to the hotel around 1 PM. If I plan to go to Hanauma Bay again, I will definitely use this service. It was fun.

チケット争奪戦に不安があったので、こちらを利用しました。当日まで何度もリマインドメールがあり、当日早朝5:30ホテルまで迎えに来てくれました。乗合いで全て英語、同乗者も日本人は居ませんでした。ですが日本語のプリントも渡してくれて、禁止事項や迎えの時間場合が書かれていて問題無しでした。ハナウマ湾は太陽が昇るまで結構寒いです。特に日本人は寒いと思います。水温や気温を考えたら昼頃からが良いと思います。時間にはゆとりもあり、日本人インストラクター付きプランよりゆっくり出来ます。どちらも参加しましたが、目的別だと思います。あまりにゆっくり出来て30分程昼寝してました。帰りは13時頃ホテルです。次回ハナウマ湾予定があれば、またお願いします。楽しかった。

We participated with two adults and four children (ages 2 to 13). We were a bit anxious because it was slightly cheaper than other tours and only had English-speaking staff, but I thought communication would be fine as long as we could manage simple conversations. The boat was more luxurious than we expected, and we had a comfortable time.

During the snorkeling, we saw about 5 to 6 sea turtles from a distance for around 40 to 50 minutes. One of the local staff members was snorkeling and pointed out where the turtles were, but he wasn't very proactive, so we ended up diving and searching for them ourselves. However, we were thrilled to see one up close! If I have the chance to go again, I would love to participate.

大人2人、子ども4人(2〜13歳)で参加しました。
他のツアーに比べ少し安かったことと、英語のスタッフのみということで、少し不安はありましたが、簡単な会話ができる程度であれば、全くコミュニケーションは問題ないと思いました。
船も予想以上に豪華で快適に過ごせました。

ウミガメは約4〜50分間シュノーケル中に、5〜6頭遠くに見えました。
1人、現地のスタッフの方がシュノーケルをしながらウミガメのいる場所を教えてくれるのですが、あまり積極的でなかったため、自分たちで潜って探す感じでしたが、1頭至近距離で見れて感動しました！
また行く機会があったら参加したいです。

So glad we did this. Experienced and knowledgeable crew. Had a great time!

The pre-lecture was quite simplified with gestures and such. However, the captain and everyone else on board were all nice guys and very reliable. We went out to sea about three times to catch some waves, and on the second time, we managed to ride a pretty big wave, which was really exciting. It lasted about 25 minutes, but based on the waves we caught, it felt like it could have gone on a bit longer.

事前のレクチャーは、ジェスチャーなどで、かなり簡略化しています。
ただ船長はじめ、一緒に乗ってくれる方々は、みなナイスガイでとても頼もしいです。
波をつかまえに、３回ほど、沖の方へいき、２回目にかなり大きな波に乗れ、かなーり盛り上がりました。
だいたい２５分くらいで、終了でしたが、乗れた波の感じで、時間はもう少し長くなるのかな？って感じです。

The bus arrived 15 minutes before the meeting time, so I was relieved to recognize it right away. While looking for various activities during my free time, I found an event that piqued my interest and made a reservation. Since it was a new service, I boarded with excitement. The female staff member greeted us cheerfully in Japanese and explained the equipment very thoroughly. The device can be adjusted to fit each individual, allowing for a personalized setup. Once the video started, multiple power stones appeared. By using my palms to grab them, I could hear various explanations about Hawaii's history.

As a tip for grabbing, I was able to catch several by quickly and firmly grabbing them. My husband mentioned that it was difficult to react with long sleeves, so it might be better to roll them up. While listening to various scenery and explanations in the video, we quickly reached the final stop. The staff were very cheerful, and I was grateful that they took photos for us after getting off the bus.

集合時間の15分前にはバスも到着しており、このペイントなので直ぐにわかり安心しました。
スキマ時間に色々探していた所、未体験で興味を持ったイベントを見つけて予約しました。まだ新しいサービスとの事でワクワクしながら乗車　スタッフの女性は日本語で明るく接して頂き、装置説明もとても丁寧に教えていただきました。頭に装置をセットし個々に合わせてサイズ調整も可能な為、自分サイズでセット出来ます。映像が流れだすとパワーストーンがいくつも現れます。自分の手のひらを使ってグッとつかみゲットするとハワイの歴史や色々な説明を聞く事ができます。
つかみ方のコツとして私は素早くグッとつかむ感じでいくつもゲット出来ました。主人は服の袖口が長いと反応しづらいと言ってたので袖口はまくってた方が良いかもしれません。映像で色々な景色や解説を聞きながらアッと言う間に終点。
スタッフの方がとても朗らかでバス降車後に写真も撮って頂きありがたかったです。

Greeted with all of the information we needed to check in. Great tour by Mikey. Lots to see and it kept everyone highly entertained. Highly recommend to anyone, the views are breathtaking.

Thank you for teaching me so kindly; I had a lot of fun and time flew by! It was easy to understand because you spoke in Japanese! I want to participate again!

丁寧に教えてくださり、とても楽しくあっというまに時間がなくなりました！日本語で話してくれたので分かりやすかったです！また参加したいです！

The breathtaking view from above was very impressive. The explanations were given very kindly and thoroughly, making for an enjoyable time.

空からみる絶景の景色がとても印象的でした。とても丁寧に優しく説明してくださり楽しい時間になりました。

I was a bit anxious about horseback riding in the blazing sun, so I chose the sunset time. It turned out to be a great decision! The breeze was pleasant, and the scenery was truly beautiful.

I met a slightly free-spirited horse. However, the instructor was always nearby, which made me feel safe and allowed me to enjoy the experience.

At a spot where the sunset reflected beautifully, I was able to take a lot of pictures (even though I was wearing a helmet... haha), creating wonderful memories.

I am very satisfied with this precious experience in Hawaii.

炎天下での乗馬はちょっと不安だったので、サンセットタイムを選びました。
結果、大正解！風も心地よく、景色が本当に美しかったです。

私が出会ったのは、ちょっぴり自由奔放なお馬さん。
でも、常にインストラクターの方がそばにいてくれて、安心して楽しめました。

夕陽がきれいに映るポイントでは、たくさん写真も撮っていただき、
（ヘルメット姿ですが…笑）素敵な思い出になりました。

ハワイでの貴重な体験ができて大満足です。

KBOS provided lunch, music, and all the water equipment we needed!

Amazing for adults and kids. The bus driver was funny and amazing !!! Thank you so much for the entertainment.
Beautiful

The seating is way to close they are cramming as many people as they can on the boat . The food was not good the meat was not appetizing looking or tasting . The view from the top deck is nice but they really really need to work on the food if they are going to charge you so much we had to get food after still because we couldn’t eat the food from the buffet

Whether you’re a movie buff or just love beautiful landscapes, this tour is perfect for a more relaxed day inside Kualoa :)

Dinner was delicious with a good variety of Hawaiian favorite dishes. We had rear seating, but still had a clear view of the stage and all the action!

Of course everyone told us ahead of time to make sure to stop here, and they were not wrong. What a fabulous type of tour, fun and historical!

The performers at Mauka were truly amazing—especially the thrilling fire knife finale!!

Having a private guide made the tour that much better, such a great location to kayak!

ATVs were easy to drive and in great condition and guides were awesome throughout!

The buffet had a decent selection with carved roast beef, chicken, and sides. It’s not a luxury gourmet meal, but for the price it was solid and filling.

This was our second time doing this sandbar tour with this company. The staff is always very nice and there are beautiful views. The first trip went really well however, this second trip was not so great.
I am aware of high and low tide times which both times were high tide, but this time the water was over my head and windy with a pretty strong current. I am 5’ 1” and it made it near impossible to do anything at all. I know the staff cannot control ocean levels but just something to keep in mind for shorter people or people with kids. I would have been better off just saving the money and walking out into the regular ocean as far as I could before it got too deep.
