All Reviews for Teen Adventures (Ages 13-17)

I participated alone this time. Therefore, I ended up paragliding with two Japanese women who were also on the tour. As mentioned in the posted experiences, I referenced the note about wanting to try 150 meters next, and even though it was my first time paragliding, I decided to challenge myself with the 150 meters.

The moment the parasail lifted off from the boat was a bit scary, but after that, it was so much fun, and I was able to enjoy a fantastic view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sky. At 150 meters, the flying time was quite long, and I was very satisfied. I was able to have a casual conversation with the women I flew with, which was nice, but for those who might feel a bit uneasy about flying with others, I recommend participating in groups of two to three.

私は、今回一人で参加しました。そのため、ツアーに参加されていた日本人女性の方２人と一緒にパラセイリングで飛ぶことになりました。
投稿されている体験談にもあったように、１５０mを次はトライしたいと書いてあったのを参考に、初めてのパラセイリングでしたが１５０mに挑戦しました。
最初の船からパラセイルがふわっと浮く瞬間はちょっと怖かったですが、そのあとは、とっても楽しく、また空からワイキキとダイアモンドヘッドが一望でき、とても素敵な体験ができました。１５０mだと飛んでる時間もかなり長く、大満足です。今回一緒に飛んでくださった女性の方とはフランクにいろいろお話できたので、よかったですが、他の方と飛ぶのはちょっと、、、、という方は、２名〜３名での参加をおすすめいたします。

The weather was great on the day, and we had a wonderful experience!

During our time there, we were the only Japanese participants, while the other four groups were all foreigners. We didn't speak much English and felt a bit lost trying to keep up with the conversations between the local guide and the other participants, but the important thing was that the guide communicated in simple English and some Japanese, which made it enjoyable for us. In fact, the other four groups were couples, and we were a duo of two women, so we ended up interacting with them quite a bit... right? (laughs)

We signed up for the 130 meters height. However, I’m not sure what height the others signed up for or if we really did the 130 meters. It felt like we flew longer than expected, and it was fun. The view was truly spectacular!! Just be aware that even if you say you don’t want to get wet, they will pretend to drop you into the sea. It was fun in the end, though! (laughs)

As others mentioned, photos are taken for $30. We considered asking other participants to take our pictures, but we couldn't bring ourselves to do it with the foreigners. (laughs) Of course, some of the photos were blurry, but they took about 80 pictures and a few videos, so we were really satisfied! I think there might be some variation in the number of photos, but they burn the CD right there and hand it to you, so there's no waiting.

While preferences for height may vary, I’m really glad I got to go parasailing! I recommend it to anyone who is considering it!＼(^o^)／

当日は天候にも恵まれ、とてもいい経験ができました！

私たちが参加した時間は、日本人は私たちだけで他の4組はみんな外国の方でした。私たちはあまり英語ができず、現地ガイドさんと周りの参加者たちの会話についていけずぽかーんというかんじでしたが、大事なことはガイドさんが覚えた日本語や簡単な英語で楽しく伝えてくれたため問題ありませんでした。むしろ周り4組はカップルで私たちは女性2人組みだったので多く絡んでもらえたような・・・？笑

高さは130Ｍで申し込みました。が、他の方が何Ｍで申し込んだのか、私たちがほんとに130Ｍだったのかはわかりません。思っていたより長く飛んでいた気がして楽しかったです。本当に絶景です！！ただ、濡れたくないと言っても海に落とすふりしてぽちゃんとしてきます。結果楽しかったですが笑

写真は他の方たちも記載していたように30ドルで撮ってくれます。他の参加者に撮ってもらおうとも考えましたが外国の方たちには頼むことができませんでした。笑　もちろんピンボケしている写真もありますが、約80枚の写真と少しの動画も撮ってくれたので本当に満足です！写真の量には差があるとも思いますが・・・ＣＤその場で焼いて渡してくれるので待つこともありません。

高さは好みもあるかと思いますが、パラセイリングができたことは本当によかったです！
悩んでる人にはおすすめです＼(^o^)／

I can barely swim and I'm too scared to dive even with a snorkel, but my wife is a diver and wanted to do some ocean activities together, so I thought this might work out... and signed up.

The transportation and local arrangements were normal, without any particular issues. We took off our shoes and boarded the boat with about 20 people, of which only about six were Japanese. Along the way, we read a Japanese lecture file.

The sea at the North Shore was somewhat rough, and the boat rocked quite a bit. The Japanese student group that was with us was almost seasick. If you're prone to motion sickness, it's better to skip this. Even after we got into the cage, the waves were rough and it was tough.

I later heard that the North Shore is calm only around July to August. We were able to see sharks up close, so it's a good activity for those who like that, but personally, it was extremely challenging for me... I was overestimating my abilities. My wife was very happy, though.

私はほぼ泳げず、シュノーケルでも怖くて潜れませんが
嫁はダイバーなのですが、何か一緒に海のアクティビティをやりたいとの事で
これだったら何とかなるか。。。と申し込みました。

送迎や現地での対応は、特に問題はなく普通です。
裸足になって船に乗り込み、20人ほどで沖へ行くんですが日本人は6名ほど。
途中で日本語のレクチャーファイルを読みます。

ノースショアの海はそこそこ時化ており、かなり船が揺れました。
一緒に行ってた日本の学生グループもほぼグロッキーに。
船酔いに弱い人はやめとく方がいいです。
順番が来て檻に入ってからも、波は荒れて苦しいです。

後で聞いたのですが、ノースショアは7～8月くらいだけらしいです、おとなしいのは。
ちゃんと鮫は間近で見えたので、好きな人にはいいアクティビティですが
個人的には非常にきつかったです。。。身の程知らずでしたね。
嫁はたいそうよろこんでおりました。

The early morning plan was great for making efficient use of the day. On the day of participation, we were blessed with good weather, and the sandbar conditions were excellent. There was a little time for snorkeling, but the visibility wasn't great. Since I was with my 8-year-old daughter, the nearly 30 minutes of snorkeling time was just right.

早朝プランは１日が効率よく使えてとても良かったです。
参加当日はお天気にも恵まれ、サンドバーの状態もよく最高でした＾＾
少しだけシュノーケルする時間があるのですが透明度などはいまいち・・・
８歳の娘と一緒だったので３０分弱のシュノーケルタイムはちょうどよかったです。

I Had such a wonderful time will defintily do it again if i get the chance took my mom to hawaii for her birthday n suprised her with this awesome cruise wonderful meal A whole lobster n steak!! Purple bread was awesome wonderful soo so entertaining they singed happy birthday to ny mom too was soo fun

I Had such a wonderful time will defintily do it again if i get the chance took my mom to hawaii for her birthday n suprised her with this awesome cruise wonderful meal crab legs and steak!! N fireWorks at the end of the night was great too

The people were friendly, the views were great. Since we are experienced riders it would've been nice to do more than a walk but we were aware it was only walk. For the cost we probably wouldn't pick this type of ride again.

I was nervous before riding the horse, but the smart horses gave me a wonderful time. They worked hard to climb steep hills and skillfully avoided muddy areas, making the 90 minutes fly by without any scary moments. The guide also made great use of our time, showing us various places and preparing meals, which made us very happy. My family and I are talking about wanting to participate again!

馬に乗る前は緊張していましたが、賢い馬たちに、楽しい時間を過ごさせてもらいました。
かなり急な坂を頑張って登ってくれたり、ぬかるみを上手に避けて歩いてくれて、怖い思いをすることなくあっという間の９０分でした。
ガイドの方も時間をうまく使って、色々なところに案内してくれたり、食事の準備を下さって大変うれしかったです。また参加したいね～と家族みんなで話しています。

Omg... This was such an Amazing activity. Alberto was so awesome as our driver. We had the best time with him. He made it soooo much FUN!! The entire staff here was very friendly and went over and aboard for us!! These are a must do activities!! Great great experience!!

We changed our whole itinerary just to go and do the sea trek adventure and we were not disappointed. It was one of the most amazing things we have ever done. The crew was friendly, experienced and very professional. They made you feel relaxed which allows you to enjoy. Great time!
Thank you.

I had participated in a morning tour twice before, but I was drawn to this tour because of the BBQ lunch and snorkeling at the coral reef. We spent about an hour at the sandbar, including lunchtime, and then moved to the snorkeling spot for about another hour, enjoying the incredibly beautiful sea. The day I participated was sunny, and with the high temperatures of midsummer, the water was warm, so I didn't feel cold even after being in the sea for a long time. However, during cooler seasons, it might be tough on the body. I believe there was also a wetsuit rental service available.

The BBQ burgers grilled on the boat were very delicious. You can choose from about three types of juice, including cola and lemonade. On the way back, when I started to feel cold, I enjoyed some hot cocoa. My mother, who just turned sixty, was also very satisfied with the tour. I highly recommend giving it a try!

午前のみのツアーに２回参加したことがありましたが、BBQランチとサンゴ礁でのシュノーケリングに惹かれ、こちらのツアーを申し込みました。ランチタイムを含めサンドバーで約一時間、それからシュノーケリングのスポットへ移動して約一時間、十分過ぎるほど美しい海を堪能しました。参加した日は晴れ、また真夏の高い気温で水温は温かく、長時間海にいても寒くなることはなかったのですが、気温が下がる時期は体に堪えるかもしれません。たしかウェットスーツの貸出サービスもあったと思います。
船の上で焼いてくれるBBQバーガーもとても美味しかったです。ジュースはコーラ・レモネードなど三種類くらいから選べます。帰り道、体が冷えてくる頃にはホットココアを頂きました。還暦を迎えた母も大満足のツアーでした。是非お試しあれ！

I think it’s inconvenient because there’s no pickup service and you have to meet on-site, so you need a rental car to get there. Horseback riding along the nearby beach felt monotonous since the course was the same going and coming back. The time was shorter than I expected. The horseback riding at Kualoa had better scenery. If the weather is good, it might offset some of that.

ピックアップが無く現地集合の為レンタカーでないと行けない場所の為不便だと思う。近くのビーチ沿いを乗馬。コースが行き帰りが同じで単調に感じた。時間が思ったより短かった。クアロアの乗馬の方が景色は良かった。天気が良ければある程度相殺されるかもしれない。

Rain excluded all views. Otherwise nice hike. Driver courteous and informative

カタマランはワイキキビーチから出航するため、アクセスがとても便利。
ポイントで停まり、海に入るとすぐ目の前に海亀と魚たちが泳ぎ廻っていました。
シュノーケリングを充分堪能し、ボートに戻ると、水とサンドイッチのサービス。
その後、ワイキキビーチ沖をクルージング。
目の見張るような海の蒼さに大感動。この値段以上の価値のあるツアーでした。
参加する際、泳ぎが苦手な方はライフジャケットを準備する必要があります。備え付けはヌードルだけでした。また、クルージングの際、風を切って走行するのでジャケット持参がお勧めです。

It was an amazing experience and a wonderful memory! From the morning pickup, the Japanese guide was waiting for us, which made us feel at ease. There is a port about a 50-minute drive from Waikiki, and we departed from there by boat! We arrived at the sandbar while seeing many sea turtles. We enjoyed taking photos and snorkeling. Since it is also a bay famous for being a movie filming location, the guide provided various explanations, which made it enjoyable. The sandwich we had on the way back on the boat was delicious too.

とても最高でいい思い出になりました！
朝のお迎えから日本のガイドの方が待っててくださり安心でした。ワイキキから50分位車で走ったところに港がありそこから船で出発！ ウミガメをたくさん見ながらサンドバーに到着。写真撮影、シュノーケリングを楽しみました。映画のロケ地で有名な湾でもあるのでガイドさんが色々説明してくれて楽しめました。帰りの船の上で食べたサンドイッチも美味しかったです。

I checked the tide levels and times in advance to participate in the sandbar, and the water was about knee-deep in shallow areas. The water is clear. The wind was so strong that we couldn't set up the beach ball net on the sandbar. There are several staff members, so it's easy to get someone to take photos for you. On the day I participated, the wind was really strong, making snorkeling difficult, and there weren't many types of fish. Although we had an hour of free time, we couldn't stay in the water for that long. It was September 29, and the water temperature was quite low, so it might be better to wear a wetsuit in the future. The bus ride to and from the location was quite chilly. After snorkeling, there was a boat ride back to shore that took just under 30 minutes, and it was really cold. The men were shivering. Our boat had a cabin in the back, so we went inside to escape the wind, but most people were sitting where they first boarded and were exposed to the wind, so I recommend moving seats on the way back. The staff were cheerful and casually asked if we were okay.

サンドバーは、あらかじめ干潮時の水位と時間を調べて参加したのですが、浅いところで膝下くらいでした。水はキレイです。風が強くてサンドバーではビーチボールのネットがはれない位です。スタッフさんは数名居るので写真撮ってもらうのには困りません。参加日はとにかく風が強くてシュノーケルもやりにくいし、魚はそんなたくさん種類居ません。1時間自由時間ですが、そんな長時間ははいってられませんでした。9/29でしたが水温も結構低いので、この先はウエットスーツを着た方がいいかも。行き帰りのバスは相当冷えます。シュノーケルが終わってから岸まで船移動も30分弱有りますがすごく寒いです。男性もガタガタ震えていました。私たちの船は後方が部屋になっているので、中に入って風をしのぎましたが、大半の方は最初に乗り込んだ所の位置で、風を浴びていましたので、帰りは席移動をお勧めします。スタッフさんは明るくて困ってないか色々気さくに聞いてくれました。

Such an awesome experience! Would definitely do it again!!

I participated in a tour of the prestigious Dolphin University with a friend! I was excited because we were supposed to swim with wild dolphins and turtles!

In the morning, I was a bit anxious because the meeting time was early! But I was relieved that we arrived on time! However, since there were explanations on the bus, I stayed awake and listened seriously to the information!

Although I was feeling a bit dazed on the way, everyone on the boat was cheerful!! The staff were really energetic!!

We were able to meet the dolphins in less than five minutes!! They were so close that I felt like I could reach out and touch them, which was very moving!

At the end, they taught us how to do the hula on the boat, and it was so much fun d(^_^o) It was a very friendly tour with everyone! Just be careful not to play too much, as you'll need to conserve your energy to enjoy it fully! ☻

友達と2人で名門イルカ大学のツアーに参加させてもらいました！
野生のイルカとカメと泳げると言う事だったので楽しみでした！

朝、集合時間が早かったので不安でした！
でも時間通りに行けたので一安心！
ただ行きのバスで説明事項などあるので
向かうバスは寝ずに話を真剣に聞きました！

意識朦朧と向かったのですが、
船の上はみんな和気あいあいでした！！
スタッフさんたちがまず元気！！

イルカさん達には5分もかからず会う事が出来ました！！
手が届いちゃうんじゃないかってとこまで近くにいてとても感動しました！

最後の船上でフラを教えてくれるのですが、とても楽しかったですd(^_^o)
みんなで和気あいあいしたツアーでした！
ただ遊びすぎて体力は温存して挑まないと
辛いと思います！☻

It wasn't nearby, but I was able to see dolphins. There are also plenty of hula and water activities, so I think it's great for when you want to enjoy a variety of things. But what about when you're specifically aiming to see just the dolphins???

近くではありませんでしたがイルカさん見れました
フラやウォーターアクティビティーも充実しているので、いろいろ楽しみたい時にはいいと思います
イルカちゃんだけが狙いの時はどうでしょうか？？？

I had been hesitant because the price was high, but I'm glad I went for it. I was really healed by the service-oriented dolphin and the beautiful staff. The moment of interaction is brief, but I will never forget the unique texture of that dolphin's skin. As someone who gets nervous, I couldn't quite get the timing for the kiss right, but they let me try again, and the photos (for a fee) turned out beautifully. There was a lot of debris (possibly waste?) floating in the pool, so I tried not to think about it too much. It was chilly when my body got wet under the cloudy sky.

値段が高いのでずっと迷っていたが思い切って行ってよかったです。
サービス精神旺盛なイルカちゃんとキレイなお姉さんにとても癒されました。
触れ合えるのは一瞬ですがあのイルカ独特の肌触りは一生忘れません。
ビビりな私はキスのタイミングがうまく合わなかったけどやり直しさせてくれて写真（有料）も綺麗に撮れていました。プールはゴミ（排泄物？）がたくさん浮いていたのでなるべく気にしないようにしました。曇り空で体が濡れると寒かった。

First time doing this and wow! The staff were friendly and fun. Taking a boat ride how can you go wrong, then I was attached to the parachute and Best water view ever! took the dip and to my surprise the water was warm. Ended the vacation on a high note. enjoyed so much all my tropic or island vacation will end on this high note, just higher only went 600 ft. hope the next Captain and crew are as excellent as this Cap and crew.

I participated because I wondered if I could make it in time for low tide according to the schedule. The reviews were very positive, so my expectations might have been too high. The bus left 45 minutes after the meeting time, which made me feel distrustful of the tour due to the "island time" vibe...

The staff were friendly, and the hamburger was tastier than I expected. However, I didn't see the sandy beach as mentioned in the guidebook. The water level was at its lowest, only up to my knees.

Would I recommend it to my friends? Unfortunately, I cannot recommend it.

タイムスケジュールから、干潮の時間に間に合うかな？と思い参加しました。口コミもとても評判が良かったので期待が大きすぎたのかもしれません。バスが集合時間の45分後に出発するなど南国時間過ぎてツアーへの不信感が.....
スタッフの方はフレンドリーでしたし、ハンバーガーも想像より美味しかったです。ただし、ガイドブックにあるような砂浜は見られません。一番水位低くて膝下です。
お友達に薦めるか？と言うと残念ながらオススメはできません。

The submarine scooter is a must try!! Bring motion sickness pills just in case, I thought I didn't need it but I didn't have any. Doesn't require you to know how to swim, the divers will be with you most of the time and watch you from a distance when you're settled in. Lots of fishes to see. Pictures are taken by the divers and available for purchase sent via email.

I signed up for canyon horseback riding, but due to bad weather, it was canceled and changed to a seaside course. While the weather is no one's fault, I was really looking forward to it, so it's disappointing. However, I was glad that I could still go horseback riding on the seaside course. Thank you to the guide for being so kind. I will try canyon horseback riding again next year.

渓谷乗馬を申し込みしましたが、天候が悪くキャンセルになり海辺コースに変更になりました。天候は誰の責任ではありませんが、楽しみにしていただけに残念です。しかし海辺コースでも乗馬が出来たので良かった。ガイドさんも親切にして頂きありがとうございました。来年また渓谷乗馬に再挑戦します。

We left early in the morning and were able to return to the hotel by mid-morning, which allowed us to go sightseeing afterward.
From the boat, we were able to see not only sea turtles but also manta rays.
My 77-year-old mother and I didn't go snorkeling, but just enjoying the view from the boat was very pleasant.
My husband and the children, who went snorkeling, were satisfied with seeing beautiful fish.
The shuttle bus was very cold, as mentioned in the reviews, but when we asked them to turn off the air conditioning, they did.
The return bus was comfortable.

早朝出発で午前中にホテルに帰ることができたので、その後も観光に出かけることができました。
ボートからウミガメだけでなくマンタも見ることができました。
私と77歳の母はシュノーケリングをしませんでしたが、ボートの上で景色を眺めているだけでも気持ちが良かったです。
シュノーケリングをした夫と子どもたちはキレイな魚を見ることができて満足していました。
迎えのバスは、口コミであったように大変寒かったですが、途中でエアコンを止めて欲しいと頼むと止めてくれました。
帰りのバスは快適でした。

Since it was my first time, I think it was good to see it at least once. The food was average, but it was served quickly. The fire show was the most impressive.

はじめてだったので、一度は見ておいてよかったかたかと思います。
お料理は普通ですが、しまわれるのが早かった。
ファイアーショウが一番見応えがありました。

My husband and I went out on 9/29/15 ...we have done zip lining. ..a helicopter ride...my husband went parasailing. ...but nothing even slightly compared to the amazing adventure at bobs underwater scooter adventure . I am a big scarey cat while my husband is a dare devil...we both agree this was the best! Not scary except for the unease at first of not knowing what it will be like. Then there you are breathing regularly at the bottom of the ocean! We played with turtles hundred of fish...octopus (the handlerers... that are in scuba gear and accompany you and video your visit under the sea...found the octopus and played with them for us to see and touch) this is not a controlled area it is a spot they choose to stop the boat...so it's all just natural nature! I want to bring my whole family to Hawaii just to come here! GO! DON'T CONSIDER NOT DOING THIS!

Okay, I'm hooked! I cannot wait to get back to Oahu, and get on a board again! The day was great in every way. Austin is an amazing instructor, and a cool dude. I felt safe and confident with him, and was surfing in no time. Absolutely awesome!! I also had the privilege of meeting CJ, and Rachel (Turtle Bay shop). Thank you both for all the encouragement and advice with my plans to make Oahu my home in the very near future. Looking forward to seeing all of you again...and, of course, surfing. Mahalo!

Minus the crazy winds that day the ride was great. But, what was even better were the two guys running the boat! SUPER friendly, fun, and good at what they do. We had a great time - again!! Recommend? YES, absolutely!

Amazing & would highly recommend this hike! We were originally scheduled to do the Makapuu Lighthouse Trail as well, but unfortunately they closed the trail a few days before we arrived. We were notified by the tour company in plenty of time & just went on the hike to Diamond Head. We were refunded the difference & everything else went off without a hitch. We were a little confused about the pick up location, but the driver took the time to call us & guide us to the right area. Job well done guys! Mahalo!
