All Reviews for Teen Adventures (Ages 13-17)

It's unfortunate that the morning shuttle bus was too cold due to the air conditioning (laughs). For lunch, the buffet is better inside the house rather than outside where the birds come; a spacious building would be nice!

On a positive note, there was a mix-up with the order of activities upon arrival, but it was quickly corrected. After that, we smoothly enjoyed the attractions and had a memorable and fun day (the whole family is very grateful).

残念な事⤵…朝イチの送迎バスがエアコン利きすぎで寒かった(笑)、昼食のバイキングは鳥が来る外ではなくhouse中が良いですよ広い建屋がいいなぁ～

素晴らしい事…到着後食い違いでアクティビィの順番違いは有りましたが直ぐに修正、その後はスムーズにアトラクションをenjoy 想い出に残る楽しい1日を過ごさせて頂きました(家族全員大感謝です)

Traveled with my daughter and we both had an amazing day at the sand bar. Crew was great. We saw lots of sea turtles which I really loved.

We went on our honeymoon. Since it was a special occasion, we wanted to do something memorable and exhilarating, so we decided to take on a challenge! I was nervous, but I was quickly sent soaring into the sky and enjoyed the best views! I want to do it again!

新婚旅行でいきました。せっかくの新婚旅行なので思い出に残るスカッとしたアクティビティをやりたいと思い挑戦！
緊張しましたがあっさり空に飛ばされ、最高の眺めを満喫しました！またやりたいです！

I participated at the request of my 8-year-old son. I was worried about seasickness, but thanks to the large, stable boat, I didn't feel sick at all. We were able to see dolphins and turtles up close, and we even got to take pictures with them. I thought my 5-year-old son might find it difficult, but with the gentle encouragement and guidance from the staff, he was able to go into the water and see them too.

8歳の息子のリクエストで参加しました。船酔いを心配していましたが、大きな船で安定感のあるタイプのおかげか、全く酔いませんでした。間近でイルカもカメも見る事が出来、一緒に写真を撮ってもらえました。5歳の息子は難しいかな？と思っていましたが、ガイドさん達の優しい言葉がけとご指導で海に入り見ることが出来ました。

Our adventure began with introductions of the captain and his awesome crew. They made sure we knew all the safety procedures and explained all of the gear. We arrived to the spot and the crew jumped into their gear and were ready to go. We had time before our turn so we went snorkeling. The water was so clear! I spotted a turtle right away. We finished snorkeling and then saw another turtle on top of the water. Now it was our turn to go below on the snooba scooter. Each scooter was assigned their own diver. My diver communicated with me the whole time. When it came time to dive, he made sure I knew how to clear the pressure in my ears. Then we shook a metal mesh bag with bread balls in it and it was like we had rung a dinner bell for the fish! They flocked to us and nibbled the bread and sometimes your fingers! It was breathtaking and so exciting! I couldn't stop smiling! The photographer got some wonderful shots of us and the price was so reasonable. As our adventure came to an end, we were heading to the surface when a juvenile turtle came swimming by. I would highly recommend this adventure to everyone. Definitely one not to be missed!

I couldn't stop feeling excited about my first parasailing experience! The local staff were funny and helped ease my nerves, so I enjoyed it 120%!

初めてのパラセーリングにドキドキが止まりませんでした^ ^
現地スタッフさんが面白く緊張感をほぐしてくれたので120%楽しめました！

I just started surfing, so I decided to give it a try in Hawaii, but the board was so big that it was almost not even a surfboard, so anyone could stand on it. However, instead of teaching, they just pushed the board when the waves came. There was hardly any actual lesson. I think I will choose a different surfing lesson next time. Also, the time spent was much shorter than what was stated, with the lesson in the ocean being about an hour and a half.

サーフィンを始めたばかりなので今回はハワイでも挑戦しましたが、サーフボードとはいえなくらい大きなボードで確かにあれなら誰でも立つことは可能です。
でも教えてくれるというよりはただ波がきたらボードを押してくれるだけです。レッスンらしいことはほぼなし。
次は違うサーフィンレッスンを選ぶと思います。
また記載してあった時間よりだいぶ少なく、海でのレッスンは1時間半程度でした。

I was excited to participate after hearing from others that it would be thrilling and fun even with small children. I joined with my 3-year-old and 8-year-old, making a group of four with one staff member and the captain operating the boat.

The kids didn't paddle, but they sat in the boat, paddling out into the blue sea of Waikiki on their own, following the captain's signals to paddle and rest while waiting for good waves. When a good wave came, they paddled hard towards the shore, and after that, the boat moved swiftly towards the land without needing to paddle at all. The first time was really enjoyable, and the kids were thrilled, saying they wanted to do it again.

For the second time, it seemed like we were waiting a long time for good waves, and when we finally got moving, it wasn't as thrilling as the first time. I had read in reviews that there would be three rounds, so I thought we could go again, but it turned out to be over...

If we could have caught one more wave, I would have felt satisfied, but with the price we paid for only two rounds, and the second one being lackluster, it left me feeling unsatisfied. The kids were also asking, "Is it over already?"

I was really looking forward to this, so I was a bit disappointed.

他の方の体験談をみて小さい子がいてもスリル満点で楽しいときいていたのでワクワクして参加しました
3才と8才の子どもと親子4人で参加しスタッフのかた一人と船を操作する船長さんとのりました

子供たちは漕ぎませんでしたが船に座り、ワイキキの青い海に自分たちでこいで沖へでて、船長さんの合図にあわせて漕いだり、休んだりしていい波が来るのを待って、いいなみがきたら思い切り漕いで陸に向かって漕ぐとその後全く漕がなくてもすごい早さで陸に向かってスーッと進んで1度目はすごく楽しかったです。子供たちもすごく喜んでもう一回やりたいといって再度沖へ、

2回目はなかなか良い波がこないのか待ち時間も長くやっと動かしても1度目よりあまりスリルもなく...
口コミでは3回はあると書いてあったのでもう一度行ってもらえるかと思ったら、何と終了 。。。

せめて、後一回波に乗れていたらそれなりに満足でしたがこの値段で2回しか出来ず、しかも2回目は不発で言葉も微妙なのでもう一回と言うこともできずすっきりしない感じで終わりました。
子供たちももう終わり？ってかんじで...

凄く楽しみにしていたのにちょっとがっかりでした

I experienced this nearly 20 years ago in Australia, but this time it was even better with a height of 120 meters and a longer airtime, making it a lot of fun! My son, who is in the second year of junior high, had his first experience and was so excited, saying he wants to do it again!

I also purchased some photos, and they turned out really well (there were even some funny shots taken without us realizing it, which we enjoyed a lot after returning home), creating great memories.

I definitely want to participate again next time.

20年近く前にオーストラリアで体験しましたが、今回の方が高さもあり(120m)、滞空時間も長く、とっても楽しめました！初体験の息子(中2)も、またやりたい！と大興奮でした。
写真も購入しましたが、とても上手に撮れていて(面白い写真もいつの間にか撮られていて、帰国してからもめちゃめちゃ楽しめて)良い思い出になりました。
次回もぜひ参加したいと思います。

The weather was great, and the waves were calm, so I was looking forward to enjoying a wonderful underwater walk. However, the water clarity was poor. The fish were sparse, and while the small fish entering and exiting the wreckage of ships and airplanes on the seabed were cute, there weren't as many varieties or numbers as I had hoped. Furthermore, at around 30 meters underwater, due to the relationship of sunlight with color wavelengths, even brightly colored fish appeared bluish overall, so I didn't feel the vividness typical of the southern seas, which was disappointing.

天気良し、波静かで絶好の海中散歩を楽しにみしていたけど、海中（海水）の透明度が悪い。
魚類がまばら、海底に沈めた船舶や飛行機の残骸（魚の住み家）に出入りする小魚は、可愛らしいが、期待したほどの種類や数が見られない。　さらに３０ｍくらいの海中では、太陽光は色彩波長の関係で、鮮やかな色合いの魚でも全体に青白くみえるため、南海の海といった鮮やかさは感じられず、残念でした。

Great way to see d island , eat and relax. D food was great and staff friendly and accommodating

The sandbar's water level was about waist-high, but the clarity was excellent, and I was very satisfied. I was able to see a sea turtle, and snorkeling was a lot of fun with plenty of fish. The hamburgers and beer on the boat were also incredibly delicious! The guide on the way there was really wonderful, too!

サンドバーは水位は腰くらいまででしたが、透明度が高く、大満足でした。ｳﾐｶﾞﾒも見れたし、シュノーケリングも魚が沢山でとても楽しかったです。船の上のハンバーガーとビールも、最高に美味しかったです！行きのガイドのおじさんがとても素敵でした笑

I participated in three attractions, and time flew by!

Since it was my first time in Hawaii, I wanted to experience these typical attractions, and I was very satisfied.

3つのアトラクションに参加しましたが、あっという間に時間が過ぎました！

ハワイが初めてだったので、こういう普通のザ アトラクションを体験したかったので大満足です。

We participated as a family of three. Since we were staying at Hilton Village, we were scheduled to be picked up at 5 AM, but after waiting for a little over 15 minutes, I started to worry a bit, but we were able to meet up safely. Our 5-year-old daughter also joined, and she slept soundly in the car (laughs). Shortly after boarding the boat and moving to the spot, we finally spotted the dolphins! A large group of dolphins swam right beneath our feet. I was a bit worried about having the youngest participant, but my daughter was super excited!! After that, we also got to see turtles, and we experienced kayaking and paddleboarding, making it a very satisfying day. The staff members were always cheerful, and we were able to enjoy a fun atmosphere throughout. I definitely want to go again! ♪

家族3人で参加させて頂きました。
ヒルトンビレッジの宿泊でしたので、朝５時にピックアップ予定でしたが待つこと１５分強、
少し心配になりましたが無事に合流出来ました。
５歳の娘も参加したので娘は車ではぐっすりでした（笑）
船に乗ってポイントに移動後間もなくして待望のイルカを発見！
たくさんのイルカが群れを成して足の直ぐ下を泳いで行きました。
今回、最年少の参加少し心配していたのですが…これには娘も大興奮‼
その後カメのも会えたし、カヤックやパドルボートも体験出来て
大満足な一日でした。
スタッフの方々も終始明るくて楽しい雰囲気の中で過ごすことが出来ました。
是非、また行きたいです♪

There was also a Hawaiian dinner, but I opted for the affordable all-you-can-eat appetizers. It included four items like Thai-style grilled chicken and meatballs, along with a dessert cake. While it didn't feel luxurious, considering the $30 difference, the sunset, night view, and hula dance were wonderful, and I thoroughly enjoyed them.

ハワイアンディナーもあったのですが、金額の安いアペタイザー食べ放題にしました。タイ風の焼き鳥、肉団子など４品とデザートのケーキで、豪華感はなかったですが３０ドルの違いがあるとかと言えば、サンセットや夜景、フラダンスなどの主役は素晴らしく、充分堪能できました。

I honestly didn't have high expectations since I was just accompanying my sister, but it was really great! The calm blue sea, the distant view of Waikiki, the warm sun, and the pleasant breeze allowed me to have an amazing time like I’ve never experienced before. The bus and boat staff were all cheerful and really lifted our spirits. I'm someone who gets motion sickness easily, but I took some medication beforehand, so I was totally fine. Depending on the season, I recommend the first morning course. Even in the early morning, I thought the sunlight was quite strong by the time we reached the parasailing spot, so it might get hot during the day while parasailing.

妹の付き添いだったので私は正直期待していなかったのですが、とっても良かったです‼︎青い穏やかな海、遠くに見えるワイキキの街、暖かい太陽と心地よい風で今まで体験したことのない素晴らしい時間を過ごすことができました。またバスやボートのスタッフの方々はみんな陽気で気分を盛り上げてくれます。私は酔いやすい方ですが酔い止めを飲んで行ったので全然大丈夫でした。時期にもよるとは思いますが、私は朝一番のコースをおすすめします。朝一番でもパラセイリングのスポットに行くまで結構日差しが強いなと思ったので、昼間だとパラセイリング中も暑くなるかも。

We were picked up in front of the Duke Kahanamoku statue at Waikiki Beach at 9 AM and arrived at the port, just past Ala Moana, in about 30 minutes. We waited for about 45 minutes for the previous tour to finish. While I thought about how time flows in Hawaii, the kids enjoyed watching the fish at the bottom of the port in the different water compared to Japan, and my wife had fun chatting in broken English with a woman in her twenties from New Zealand who was on the same tour.

After a fun wait, a cruiser that can hold about ten people arrived, and we boarded with some anxiety for our first parasailing experience. As we headed out to sea, preparing for about 15 minutes (putting on the harness and life jackets), it suddenly began. Suspended from the parachute at the end of the rope connected to the boat, we were lifted over 100 meters into the air, and from below, we looked like tiny dots.

Once we were up in the air, the feeling was incredible, surrounded by the deep blue sea and the bright blue sky. Depending on the situation, we were sometimes higher than small airplanes or helicopters, so if you're not good with heights, you might want to skip this. For those who are not comfortable, the slight swaying in the wind can be quite terrifying, so motion sickness medication is a must.

We were in the air for about 5 to 10 minutes, splashed down onto the water briefly, and then went back up into the sky before landing on the boat. The crew consisted of two people: the captain and a supporter, who spoke some broken Japanese and made the experience enjoyable. They were very considerate and gentle, especially towards small children and women.

My son said this was "the most fun" part of our trip, and we would definitely like to participate again if we come back to Oahu.

朝９時にワイキキビーチのデュークカハナモク像前からピックアップしてもらい、アラモアナを少し過ぎた港へ約30分で到着。
そこで前のツアーが終わるのを45分くらい待ったでしょうか、これがハワイ時間の流れ方かと思いつつも、子供たちは日本と違う住んだ水で港の底にいる魚たちを見て楽しみ、妻は片言の英語でツアーが一緒になったニュージーランドの20代女性と会話を楽しんでました。
楽しく待ち時間をすごしたのちに10名程が乗れるクルーザーが到着、初めてのパラセイリングに不安も感じながら乗船。
青い海に白い波を立てながら15分ほどパラセイリングの準備（ワイヤーやライフジャケット着用）をしながら沖に出たところで、突然はじまります。
船に繋がれたロープ先のパラシュートに吊るされて100m以上の上空へ、下から見てると豆粒くらいになります。
上空にあがると気分は最高、真っ青の空と眼下の深青の海に囲まれ絶景です。
遠くに小型飛行機やヘリコプターより場合によっては高くなるので高いのが苦手な人はやめた方がいいかもしれません、苦手な人だと少し風で揺れる事もあるので恐怖以外の何物でもないと思われます、酔い止めは必須です。
5分～10分程上空にいて、一度海面にちゃぷんと着水してもう一度空へ、それから船の上に着地します。
クルーはキャプテンとサポーターの２名です、片言の日本語で色々はなして盛り上げてくれ楽しい時間をすごせました。
小さい子供や女性にも優しく、気遣いも非常に紳士です。
今回の旅行で「一番楽しかった」と息子の感想です、またオアフに来たらぜひ参加したいと思います。

On the second day in Hawaii, we chose a submarine as our first activity. We boarded the boat from the pier, looking forward to the blue sea, and headed to the transfer point for the submarine. The captain and other crew members walked around the boat, allowing us to take photos freely. We were lucky to encounter a sea turtle along the way.

However, the view of the sea from inside the submarine wasn't very clear, and perhaps due to bad timing, we could only see fish from a distance, which was a bit different from what we had expected. There were many participants from Europe and America, and the atmosphere was lively thanks to the English guide, but it seemed that those who didn't understand English felt a bit left out. I wished there had been a bit more entertainment value. The staff didn't speak Japanese, but they were all cheerful and very nice.

ハワイについて二日目、最初のアクティビティとして潜水艦を選択。
青い海に期待して桟橋から船に乗り込み、潜水艦との乗り換え地点まで行きます。
キャプテンや他のクルーが船内を回り、カメラ撮影を気軽にしてくれます。
途中でウミガメに出会えたのがラッキーでした。
潜水艦の中から見る海は、あまり透明感を感じず、タイミングが悪かったのか魚も遠目に見えただけで少し期待とは異なっていました。
艦内は欧米からの参加者も多く英語ガイドによって盛り上がっていましたが、英語がわからない人たちは少し取り残された感があったように思えます。
もう少しエンターテイメント感があったらいいのになと感じました。
スタッフは日本語を話せませんが、みなさん明るくいい方ばっかりでした。

This Zipline adventure was the highlight of our trip. The whole experience was awesome! Our guides were a lot of fun.

We had a wonderful time on the Star of Honolulu dinner cruise. Met really nice people. The Crew was a lot of fun teaching us the hula. The sunset was beautiful. The food was great. Very organized.

We participated as a family of three: my husband, daughter, and two grandmothers. We chose this tour because I wanted to show my grandmother, who can't swim, the underwater world, and I also wanted to show my daughter the fish in the ocean from a submarine.

The guide was in English, so I couldn't understand much, but there were translated guide messages in various languages coming through the headphones inside the submarine, which was quite educational.

Since I have no experience diving, it was refreshing to see the sunken ships and planes that serve as homes for the fish.

It was nice to take a boat out to sea and then board the submarine; it felt like a bit of a bonus to be able to enjoy both experiences.

I thought it was a little cold inside the submarine.

夫婦＋娘＋祖母２名での参加でした。
泳ぐことが出来ない祖母に海中を見せたくて，また，娘に潜水艦で海の中の魚を見せたくてこのツアーを選びました。

ガイドが英語だったので全然わからなかったですが，艦内のヘッドフォンからは各国語に訳されたガイドメッセージが流れていたので色々と勉強になりました。

海に潜る経験がないので，廃船や廃飛行機が魚の住処として沈められているのを見ることができたのは新鮮でした。

船で沖合に出てそこから潜水艦に乗船できるのも，船にも乗れて少しお得な気分になりました。

艦内少し寒かったように思います。

We were picked up at the hotel at 7 AM and traveled by large bus to the pier. I was worried about the heavy rain in the mountains along the way, but fortunately, by the time we boarded the boat, the rain had stopped. It was cloudy, but the sun started to shine, which was great. As I had researched beforehand, the water was about knee-deep, and we couldn't see the sandbar. The snorkeling experience was serious, and the staff provided thorough instructions while we wore life jackets. The corals and fish were beautiful, but if the weather had been a bit better, they might have looked even more stunning. The experience is quite dependent on the weather. We opted for a morning-only tour, and that was sufficient.

朝の７時にホテルピックアップで大型バスで船着き場まで移動。途中山中では大雨でどうなることかと心配しましたが幸い船に乗る頃には雨が止んでいて曇ってはいたものの日が射してきたので良かったです。事前に調べていた通り膝下くらいまで水が浸かりサンドバーは見れなかったです。シュノーケリングは本格的でライフジャケット着用でスタッフがきっちり教えてくれます。珊瑚や魚もキレイに見えましたがもう少し天気が良かったらもっとキレイに見えたのかも。天気にかなり左右されます。午前中だけのツアーにしましたがそれで十分でした。

Nice relaxing trip on the sailboat. You can walk around the boat, or even lay down on the mat. Sunset is nice if you are in to taking pictures.

Don't go for the appetizers: meatballs, chicken wings, and mix of crackers, just okay.

Lots of alcohol if you like to drink.

I had a great time! If I could wish for anything, I would have liked to relax a bit more in Haleiwa. My stay in Haleiwa was only about an hour as I was heading to go horseback riding. The garlic shrimp place I was aiming for opened about 15 minutes late, so I had to hurry and scarf down the garlic shrimp. It was delicious, but I wanted to savor it more and check out other shops as well.

とても楽しかったです！欲を言えばハレイワでもう少しのんびりしたかったなぁ。乗馬に向かうためハレイワ滞在は一時間位でした。お目当てのガーリックシュリンプ屋さんの開店が15分ほど遅れて急いでガーリックシュリンプをかきこむことに。美味しかったけどもっと味わいたかったし、他のお店も見たかったです。

loved it. a little windy and cold. would be great if there was an outdoor shower to rinse off after for non-hotel guests

kids totally loved it. couldn't stop talking about it after.

This was my second time paragliding, and it was so much fun! Amazing!

However, regarding the "height" that was initially set, I'm not sure if it was really the length I signed up for. Since paragliding is done in pairs, I was with someone else, and I wondered if that person had signed up for the same height too.

パラセーリング自体は2回目ですが、とても楽しかったです！アメイジング！

しかし、最初に設定した「高さ」について、本当に申し込んだ長さなのかが不明。パラセーリングで飛ぶのはペアなので、他の人と一緒だったのですが、その人も同じ高さを申し込んだの？？と思ってしまいました。

I tried parasailing in Hawaii for the first time. At first, I thought it was a bit scary, but once I actually did it, the view was breathtaking, and I wanted to do it again.

初めてハワイでパラセーリングをやりました。
最初はは少々怖いなと思っていたのですが、実際やってみると絶景でまたやりたいと思えました。

Great trip, we were very lucky and saw 6 turtles up close in clear water. The crew were great and the sail was a delight! Definitely worth it!

Actually, I'm weak on boats and afraid of water, but this time I participated because of my family's wishes. However, thanks to the staff and the life vests, I was able to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind, and the boat didn't rock, so I could enjoy my cocktails deliciously. Above all, I was very satisfied to see so many sea turtles up close! They came so close that I almost bumped into one. I thought I would like to participate again on my next trip to Hawaii. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

じつは船に弱く水も怖いのですが、今回は家族の希望で参加しました。
ところが、スタッフやライフベストのおかげでシュノーケリングも安心して楽しめ、船も揺れないのでカクテルを美味しく飲めました。
何より間近で海ガメをたくさん見られたことに大満足！危うくぶつかりそうになるほどでしたよ。
次のハワイ旅行の時もまた参加したいなと思いました。最高の思い出をありがとうございました！
