All Reviews for Teen Adventures (Ages 13-17)

I participated in the BBQ lunch (which is a hamburger lunch) ^^ At the sandbar, the water was up to my waist. If you want to experience shallower water, it seems that going early with breakfast included is a good option. That said, it probably depends on the weather and the season... On this day, I wasn't feeling well, so I waited on the boat, but my family seemed to be having a great time ^^ Even though I was waiting on the boat, the scenery was lovely, and the staff were cheerful and friendly. I was able to spend a fun time talking with little kids and people from abroad. The hamburger for lunch was made with meat cooked in a Dutch oven, and it was juicy and delicious ^^ I also got to see a lot of sea turtles, which were adorable. On the way back, you can change clothes on the boat, so I think it would be convenient to have a cape that you can easily put on or take off. You can also change at the restroom after getting off the boat, but since there was a line for women, it might be easier to change early. I plan to participate again next time and try getting down to the sandbar or snorkeling with the sea turtles!

BBQランチ（＝ハンバーガーランチ）付きに参加しました^^ サンドバーでは腰ほどまで水がありました。もっと浅いのを体験したければ朝食付きの早い時間方法が良いみたいですね。といっても、天候や季節によると思いますが。。私はこの日に限って体調が悪かったのでボートで待機していましたが、家族は楽しそうにしていました^^ボートで待機といっても、景色も素敵だし、スタッフさん達も明るく気さくでしたし、ちっちゃいおこちゃまや外国の方と話したり楽しい時間を過ごせました。お昼のハンバーガーもダッチオーブンで焼いてくれたお肉で、ジューシーで美味しかったです^^ウミガメも沢山見れて可愛かったです。帰り、着替えはボートの上で出来るので、すっぽりか被れるケープのようなのがあると便利かと思います。ボート降りてトイレでも着替えられますが、女性は並んでいたので早めに着替えちゃった方が楽かもです。次回も参加して今度はサンドバーに降りたり、シュノーケルでウミガメと泳いだりしようと思います！

The weather was wonderful, and the sandbar was incredibly beautiful. The staff was also very cheerful ( ^ω^ ). I even encountered a sea turtle while snorkeling!

天気にも恵まれサンドバーは最高に綺麗でした。スタッフさんも最高に陽気( ^ω^ )シュノーケリングでウミガメにも出会いました！

I waited for about 15 minutes for the pick-up. It was mentioned that there would be a "trolley with a logo to greet us," but no one came despite waiting... I kept an eye out every time a car stopped, but there was no sign of the right vehicle. After more than 15 minutes had passed, I started to feel anxious and decided to call. They told me, "It already passed." I hurriedly took a taxi to the location where the boat was departing and managed to make it in time for the tour.

When I spoke to a Japanese woman at the reception about the absence of the vehicle and the fact that we weren't called, she responded as if it was our fault, saying, "We don't call names, you know? Others have gotten on." The vehicle I saw was just an ordinary van without any logos.

Having participated in various tours before, I noticed that the pick-up staff usually have a list of participants. If it was just a regular van, at least they could have mentioned the tour name... The pick-up location in front of the Duke statue has many cars stopping, and since it also serves as a meeting point for other tours and a trolley stop, it is quite difficult to identify a non-logo vehicle as the tour vehicle without any guidance.

The guide on the boat was a local who entertained the participants well, but the fact that we made others wait and the unpleasant attitude from the Japanese woman at the reception turned what should have been a fun memory in Hawaii into a disappointing one.

Pick Up 15分ほど前から待機。
「ロゴ入りのトロリーでお迎え」とあったが、待てども待てども来ず...。車が止まるたびに気にして見ていたがそれらしき車はなく。
時間を15分以上過ぎても来ないため、さすがに不安になり電話をかけてみると「もう通った。」とのこと。
タクシーで慌てて船が出る場所まで向かい、なんとか参加には間に合いました。
受付に日本人の女性がいたためそれらしき車が通らなかったこと、特に呼ばれもしなかったことを伝えたところ「名前は呼びませんよ？他の人は乗ってきてるんですよ？」と逆に私たちのせいだと言わんばかり。
車を見るとロゴも何もないただのワゴン車でした。
今まで色々なツアーに参加してきましたが送迎の方は必ず参加者のリストを持っていたし、普通のワゴン車なのであればせめてツアー名だけでも言ってくれれば良いのに...と思います。
Pick Up場所のデューク像前は止まる車も多く、他のツアーの待ち合わせ場所やトロリー乗り場にもなっているため、案内もなしにロゴの無い車をツアーの車だと判断するのはかなり難しいです。
船に乗ったガイドさんは現地の方で参加者を楽しませてくれましたが、他の参加者を待たせてしまったこと、受付の日本人女性にすごく感じの悪い態度を取られたことで、ハワイで楽しい思い出を作るはずが残念な思い出となりました。

Our first family trip to Hawaii. I had always wanted to visit Angel's Beach. I was surprised by the number of Japanese people at the meeting point. It was a good decision to take motion sickness medication before getting on the boat to avoid feeling seasick. When we arrived at Angel's Beach, the water was about knee-deep, but it was crystal clear and very beautiful. The hamburgers afterward were delicious, and my child enjoyed snorkeling for the first time in their life.

初めての家族でのハワイ旅行。天使の海は絶対行きたいと思っていた場所でした。集合場所について日本人の多さにまずびっくり。ボートに乗って揺られる中酔わないように酔い止めを飲んでおいたのは正解でした。天使の海につくと膝の高さくらいの水でしたが、透き通っていてとてもきれいでした。そのあとのハンバーガーもおいしく、子供は人生初のシュノーケリングを楽しんでいました。

The guide picked us up at the hotel and shuttled us to the trailhead. From there its pretty easy hike up to the Manoa Falls.

On the day of the event, perhaps due to the strong winds, my wife and child were able to participate in the first round, but during the second round (myself and my child), our parachute got tangled, and we were unable to participate. It was very disappointing.

参加当日風が強い事もあった為かどうかはわかりませんが、妻と子供の1回目は参加できたものの２回目の参加時に（私と子供）パラシュートが絡まってしまい参加する事が出来ませんでした。非常に残念です。

Last time it was canceled due to strong winds, so this time we got our revenge.

The view while feeling the wind is amazing, unlike the scenery seen through the airplane window. I'm glad we chose to go as high as possible.

We went as a couple, but the kids who came in a group and rode in the three-seater seemed to be having a great time together.

You can take photos yourself, but it's also fine to take turns with the people you're riding with, so there's no need to worry about photos.

I saw a post saying that the pickup time wasn't kept, but when we arrived right on time, they were already waiting for us. It might be luck, but I think it should be fine.

前回は強風で中止になってしまったのでリベンジ。

飛行機から窓越しで見る景色と違って、風を浴びながらの眺めは最高。
一番高くに上がるのにしてよかった。

うちらは夫婦二人で乗ったけど、グループで来て３人乗りに乗ってた子達も、ワイワイやってて楽しそうだった。

写真は、自分でも撮れるけど、一緒に乗ってる人達で順番に撮りっこすればいいから、写真は心配いらないです。


ピックアップ時間が守られないって投稿があったけど、時間ピッタリに行ったら、もう待っててくれてた。
運があるかもしれないけど、大丈夫なんじゃないかな。

It wasn't a full moon or new moon, so the water level was higher, but it was still beautiful! It felt like the time was short, but I think I wouldn't have been able to come without the tour, so I'm satisfied.

満月・新月ではなかったので、水位は高めでしたがそれでも綺麗でした！時間が短い気もするけど、ツアーじゃないと来れないと思うので満足です。

It was a very pleasant place. I recommend it.

However, it seems that the sand area only appears during limited times, such as early morning. When I went without knowing this, I thought, "Huh, this looks a bit different from the guidebook and photos...?!"

Also, it seems that the hotel pickup time can be a bit delayed, so you don't need to worry if they don't arrive right away; just be there, and you'll be fine!

The female guide took a lot of wonderful photos, so I recommend handing over your camera for her to take pictures!

Next time, I want to go again during the time when the sand area is available.

とっても心地の良いところでした。
オススメです。

ただ、砂場が現れるのは、
早朝などの限られた時間のようで、
なにも知らずに行った私は、
あれ、ガイドブックと写真が
ちょっと違う、、、！？
となりました！

また、ホテルでのピックアップ時間が
多少遅れることがあるみたいなので、
こないからといって、ソワソワしなくても、
ちゃんとそこにいれば大丈夫です！

ガイドの女性が、ステキな写真を
いっぱい撮ってくださったので、
カメラを渡して撮っていただくことが
オススメです！

今度は、砂場の出てる時間帯に
また行ってみたいです。

The underwater scooter allowed us to dive deep into the water, and it was so much fun to see beautiful tropical fish gathering right in front of us. We could also view swimming sea turtles from below, which offered a different kind of enjoyment compared to snorkeling.

I was surprised that the staff took photos and videos for us (which can be downloaded later for a fee online), and they were very attentive, skillfully guiding couples underwater and helping them hold hands.

There was also a female staff member who spoke Japanese, which was reassuring. It seemed like there was time for snorkeling as well, but we went by boat to a sandbar in a different location. The sandbar in Kaneohe was indeed amazing.

水中スクーターは水中深く入り、本当に綺麗な海の熱帯魚が目の前にすごく集まって来たのが楽しかったです。泳いでいる水カメも下から眺めることができ、シュノーケリングとは違った楽しさがありました。
びっくりしたのは、スタッフが写真と動画を撮ってくれたのですが（後でネット経由で有料でダウンロードできます）、カップルで参加した場合、二人を水中でうまく誘導し手を繋がせるなどサービス精神に満ちていました。
ちょうど日本語のできる女性スタッフもいて安心でした。シュノーケリングも時間があればできたようですが、私たちはボートで別の場所のサンドバーに行きました。
サンドーは、やはりカネオヘの方がすごいです。

About 18 years ago, I did a photoshoot at a sandbar for work. At that time, the sandbar completely emerged as land, and I remember shooting there for about 2 to 3 hours. This time, I applied for my daughter (a high school freshman) to have that wonderful experience as well. However, the sandbar did not emerge above the water. According to the female guide, due to rising sea levels and the tides at that time, it seems that land formation has become rare recently. However, my daughter was satisfied as she discovered a sea turtle and enjoyed her first snorkeling experience. The woman who guided us and instructed us was very pleasant, and all the staff were cheerful people. I wouldn't recommend it for very young children, but I think it would be a good experience for middle school-aged kids.

18年ほど前に仕事でサンドバーで撮影をしました。そのときは、完全に砂浜が陸地になり、2時間～3時間はその陸地で撮影をした記憶があります。今回、娘（高1）にもその素晴らしい体験をさせようと思い申し込みました。しかし、サンドバーが、水上に出てくることはありませんでした。ガイドの女性によると、やはり地球の海面上昇や、そのときの潮の満干でほとんど最近は、陸地ができることはないそうです。しかし娘は、ウミガメを発見したり、初めてのシュノーケリングを楽しんだようで、満足しておりました。旅の案内やインストラクターをしてくれた女性の方は、大変感じがよく、スタッフもみんな愉快な人たちでした。あまり小さな子供たちにはお勧めしませんが、中学ぐらいの子供たちには良い経験になるかと思います。

The sandbar I was most looking forward to in Hawaii! I made a reservation for the day with the shallowest water during my 5-night, 7-day stay, but unfortunately, it rained. A few days ago, an acquaintance went and said it was really beautiful, so I was truly disappointed.

Since it was Saturday, there was a high school boy who spoke Japanese working part-time. The staff were neither particularly good nor bad, but the hot tea and sandwiches we had in the cold were delicious.

今回のハワイで1番楽しみにしてたサンドバー！5泊7日の中で1番水深が浅い日を選んで予約しましたが、残念ながらの雨でした。数日前に知人が行ったのですが、すごいキレイとのことだったので本当に残念。
土曜日だったので、高校生の日本語が話せるバイトの男の子がいました。スタッフは特別いいわけでも悪いわけでもありませんでしたが、寒い中で食べるホットティーとサンドウィッチはおいしかったです。

The staff were awesome, casual enough so that everyone felt at ease but professional enough that we both felt safe, heaps of fun, would recommend to everyone.

I would highly recommend the Navatek Dinner Cruise. My husband and I both chose a chicken entree and it was fabulous. The staff was friendly and fun. The entertainment was awesome. This was our second time on board and we will definitely do it again. Thanks Navatek!!

It was disappointing that the weather was cloudy, but there were Japanese staff members, and I was able to have fun. I want to try again and see a sunny sandbar!

お天気が曇りだったのが残念でしたが、日本人のスタッフの方もいて、楽しく遊ぶことができました。たまリベンジして、晴れたサンドバーを見たいです！

The guide was Japanese, and since it was a tour with only Japanese people, I enjoyed hearing various deep stories about Hawaii in the van. The guide was a great storyteller and a fun person.

On this day, the North Shore had high waves due to the typhoon, and it seemed that the turtles couldn't come up to the beach, so there were no turtles at Turtle Bay. However, they took us to another beach where we could see turtles on the way back!

For lunch, they took us to a recommended shrimp restaurant, and it was really delicious. The seaside horseback riding plan was just the right length at 45 minutes, and it felt great. The horses weren't startled by the sound of the waves, and they were all calm, but some horses got really into eating grass during the ride, which seemed challenging for the riders (laughs). The riders looked like they were having fun despite the struggles.

I think it's a tour that people of all ages, from children to the elderly, can enjoy.

ガイドさんは日本人で、日本人しかいないツアーだったので、バンの中でいろんなハワイのディープな話が聞けて楽しかったです。ガイドさんは話が上手で面白い人でした。

この日のノースショアは台風の影響で波が高く、亀が海岸に上がってこれないようで、タートルベイに亀がいませんでした。しかし、帰りに亀が見られる別の海岸に連れてってくれたので見ることができました！
お昼にはおすすめのシュリンプのお店にも連れて行ってもらったのですが、本当に美味しかったです。
海辺乗馬プランは45分とちょうど良い時間で、気持ちいいです。馬は波の音にも驚かないし、みんなおとなしいですが、馬によっては外乗の途中で草を夢中で食べてしまう奴がいて操作が大変そうでした(笑)乗っている人は苦労しつつそれなりに楽しそうでしたが。

子供から年配の人まで楽しめるツアーだと思います。

If you sit in the front, there are snorkeling sets and life jackets available, so many people come back to return wet items after use, and even if you put your belongings in the chair, seawater will splash and get them wet. Be sure to check the tide levels. When I was there, the shallow areas were about ankle-deep, and the sandy beach was not visible above ground. When we returned to the port, the afternoon group had arrived, but I think it had become normally deep by the time we left.

前方に座る場合は、シュノーケルセットやライフジャケットがあるので、使用後濡れたものを返却しにくる人多数で、椅子の中に荷物を入れていても、海水が飛んでくるので濡れます。潮の引き具合は必ず調査して下さい。私の時は浅い所がくるぶしくらい、砂浜は地上には現れていませんでした。港へ帰ると午後便の方々が来ていまさしたが、行く頃には普通に深くなっていたと思います。

I have a significant fear of heights, but I had no problems at all!! The reason I decided to challenge myself to jump from 150 meters was because I saw everyone's experiences.

Since I participated alone, I jumped with others. Everyone was supposed to jump from different heights, but from the boat, they all looked like they were at the same height. The price varies depending on the height, so I'm really unsure if the person I jumped with was actually at the same height as me. Was it possible they were lower than 150 meters? Did the person I jumped with not actually want to jump from 150 meters? If that could be clarified, it would have been incredibly fun☆

I definitely recommend taking photos. I think they make for great memories. If they could also provide photos (or videos) from above while jumping, that would be even better. I want to jump again when I go to Hawaii!! The staff made it enjoyable, so I created wonderful memories.

かなりの高所恐怖症の私ですが、全く問題ありませんでした！！
そんな高所恐怖症の私が150メートルに挑戦してみようと思ったのも、みなさんの体験談を見たからです。

１人で参加のため、他の人と飛びました。みなさん飛ぶ高さが違う・・・はずですが、
船から見ていると全部同じ位の高さに見えました。
高さによって値段は変わるので、私と一緒に飛んだ人は果たして同じ高さだったのかものすごく微妙です。
実は１５０メートルより低かったんじゃないか？
一緒に飛んだ人は１５０メートル希望じゃないんじゃないか？と。
そのあたりがクリアになれば、ものすごく楽しかったです☆

写真も絶対にオススメです。良い記念になると思います。
飛んでいる上からの写真（映像等）もできる様になれば、もっと最高だと思います。
またハワイに行ったら飛びたいです！！
スタッフの皆さんが楽しませてくれたので、良い思い出が出来ました。

I always go snorkeling, but I booked this tour because I wanted to swim with dolphins. It takes a little time to get to the location, but the sea is clear. When we spotted the dolphins, we all jumped into the water. The dolphins swam gracefully in the deep water.

It might be a bit different from what you imagine when you see it on TV, but wild dolphins are amazing. We also got to go canoeing, which was fantastic. The hamburger we had at the end was the best for the kids.

シュノーケリングは、いつもしているがイルカと泳ぎたいというリクエストに、このツアーに予約をしました。場所までは、少し時間がかかりますが、海は澄んでいます。イルカ発見いっせいに海へ。イルカは深いところを優雅に泳いでいます。
　テレビで見ているような一緒に泳ぐを想像するとちょっと違うかも。しかし野生のイルカ最高です。そのほかに、カヌーなどもさせていただいて。最高。最後に食べたハンバーガーが子供たち最高でしたということです。

It was cloudy, so the sea was a bit murky, but I really enjoyed the sandbar! It was totally fine even for snorkeling beginners! I want to participate again, and I hope it will be sunny next time! If the tide isn't too high, I would like to walk on the island. However, seeing the sea turtles and manta rays was a great memory.

曇ってたから海も少し濁ってましたが、サンドバー満喫！シュノーケリング初心者でも全然おっけー！！でした。次も参加したいなと思うので、次こそ晴れてるといいな！潮も満ちすぎてなかったら、島を歩きたいです。でもウミガメとマンタがみれたのは、いい思い出です。

This was my second time at the sandbar, and it felt like a heavenly beach with a white sandy path in the middle of the blue sea, with water depth up to my shins. I encountered sea turtles at the snorkeling spot, and above all, the hamburgers eaten on the boat after the activities in the sea were incredibly delicious! They are more memorable than any gourmet burger listed in guidebooks. I recommend checking the tide schedule before making a reservation.

2度目のサンドバーでしたが、青い海の真ん中に白い砂の道、水深はスネぐらいでまずまずの天国の海感でした。
シュノーケリングスポットでは海亀にも遭遇したし、なにより海でのアクティビティ後に船の上で食べるハンバーガーはなんて美味しいのでしょう！ ガイドブックに載っているどのグルメバーガーより想い出に残ります。
潮の満ち引きを調べての申し込みをお勧めします。

Not only was the horseback riding experience enjoyable, but I also got to visit Moanalua Gardens, Dole Plantation, and Haleiwa, which made for a fulfilling trip! Even though it wasn't part of the original plan, I was glad that I could also visit the North Shore Soap Factory and Honolulu Coffee upon request!

乗馬体験だけではなく、モアナルアガーテン・ドールプランテーション・ハレイワも行けて充実していました！当初の予定にはなかったにも関わらず、リクエストに応じてノースショアソープファクトリーやホノルルコーヒーも行けてよかったです！

It is a very special experience to see sharks that closely in the water. But you will get bored very soon since you'll see the same thing for the entire 20 mins.

Cracias por sus atenciones y amabilidad y de igual forma gracias por hacer de nuestra luna de miel algo inolvidable

Saw many turtles of all sizes. There were 101 people registered for this trip when I went and 2 boats. Even though there were 101 people, the view + experience overlapped everything.
Negative part: Bathroom was very unclean so I did not use the restroom at all during the trip.
Tip: Bring hand sanitizer since it is 50 people to a boat with 1 bathroom that is questionable..
Overall: A must see.

The water level was high, but the weather was nice, the sea was beautiful, and I really enjoyed my first snorkeling experience. After coming out of the sea, they had prepared warm drinks, which was a nice touch for my chilled body. Also, the hamburgers eaten on the water were exceptional, and I definitely want to join again when I go to Hawaii. I hope to see even more beautiful scenery next time! ^^

水面は高かったけど、天気もよく、海もきれいで、初シュノーケリングもとても楽しめました。
海からあがったら温かい飲み物を準備してくれていて、冷えた体にはうれしかったです。
また、海の上で食べるハンバーガーは格別でハワイに行く際にはぜひまた参加したいです。
そのときはもっときれいな景色が見れるといいな＾＾

If you're going to Hawaii, you definitely want to see the emerald-colored sea! I joined four friends to experience this. As expected in Hawaii, not only did we see the emerald color, but we also enjoyed various shades of blue in the ocean, which was very satisfying. Although I couldn't swim with the sea turtles as I had hoped, I did get to meet some gracefully swimming sea turtles. We had time to snorkel and had fun swimming with various fish besides the sea turtles. The meal was delicious, especially the hamburgers that we made ourselves with our favorite ingredients, and there were also fruits available. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to spend some relaxing time at the sandbar.

ハワイに行くなら、エメラルド色の海が見たい！そこで遊びたい！と4人の友だちと参加しました。さすがにハワイです。エメラルド色だけでなく、いろいろと違った色の”青い海”を見ることができ、大満足です。期待していた、ウミガメと一緒に泳ぐことはできませんでしたが、悠々と泳いできいるウミガメに会うことはできました。シュノーケルをして遊ぶ時間があり、ウミガメ以外の魚たちとは一緒に泳ぐことができ、楽しかったです。食事は、自分で好きな食材をはさんで作るハンバーガーは美味しかったし、フルーツもありました。また、ハワイに行く機会があれば、是非、サンドバーでゆっくり過ごしたいです。

Excellent guide, very knowledgeable about horses, Hawaiian scenery, and informative about Hawaiian economy. The ride itself was absolutely goregous and the beauty of the trail and ocean was so beautiful it is difficult to describe. Definately worth the money and a must if you are on the North Shore.
Only suggestion is that the address needs to be be more specific and signs would be nice.

I got bored during the show.
There wasn't much to eat. If you miss the first round, there's nothing left.
The seating is arranged in two rows in a U-shape with the stage in the center. The front row seems to be reserved for guests, so you can't sit there even if you arrive early.
You have to wait until the people in the front row finish before you can go to the buffet.
It's expensive for what you get, but since it's the Hilton, I suppose that's to be expected.
It became a memorable family trip.

ショーは途中で飽きちゃいました。
食事は食べるのもがあまりない。最初に取り損ねるともうありません。
席は２列でコの字でステージが中央にある。前列は宿泊者専用なのか早くても座れません。
バイキングの取りに行く順番も前列の席の人が終わってからじゃないといけません。
値段の割には高いですがヒルトンなので仕方が無いと思います。
家族旅行の記念にはなりました。
