All Reviews for Teen Adventures (Ages 13-17)

On the day of the event, which was a Sunday, traffic was expected to be heavy, but thanks to the local guide's coordination and flexible response, the experience was packed with delicious highlights. Additionally, at the request of the participants, we made an unexpected stop at a coffee farm on the way back, where I was able to get coffee that can't be found in Waikiki.

I was nervous about horseback riding for the first time, but there were no issues at all! I thoroughly enjoyed the extraordinary views from the horse's back and was very satisfied.

参加当日は日曜日ということもあり渋滞が予想されましたが、現地ガイドさんの采配と臨機応変な対応により、おいしいところが凝縮された内容でした。また、参加者のリクエストで帰る途中、予定になかったコーヒーファームにも寄っていただきワイキキでは買えないコーヒーを入手できました。
初めての乗馬で緊張しましたが、まったく問題なし！馬の背中から非日常の景色を楽しめて大満足です。

This time, I participated in the early morning plan. Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy. However, thanks to the sun that occasionally peeked out, I was able to see the beautiful sea. I also got to see a sea turtle, and the staff were cheerful and great. However, since there is always a time limit, I would like to choose a plan that allows for a bit more relaxation next time.

今回は早朝プランで参加しました。天気はあいにくの曇天。でも時折見せる太陽のおかげで綺麗な海を見ることができました。ウミガメを見ることも出来て、またスタッフさんも明るく良かったです。ただどうしても時間に限りがあるので、次回はもう少しゆっくりできるプランにしたいと思います。

At the sandbar, the seawater level was up to my calves, which was not what I expected at all. However, the fun we had playing a sort of beach volleyball there has become a wonderful memory. The instructors did a great job of inviting my husband and me, who were having a hard time blending in with the team. At first, I was embarrassed, but gradually my husband and I found ourselves mingling and having a great time with the younger crowd. Thank you very much.

サンドバーでは、少し海水面が、ふくらはぎまであり、決して期待通りではなかったのですが、そこでビーチバレーもどきをした時の楽しさが良き思い出に成っています。あの時なかなかチームに溶け込めずにいた私と夫をインストラクターの人たちがうまく誘ってくださり、初めは恥かしかったのですが、だんだん私も夫も若い人に混ざっていつのまにか騒いでいました。有難うございました。

This time, I went to Sea Life Park. It was my first visit, and I was excited to play with the dolphins as I headed to the pool. What awaited me was a large dolphin. I received a warm welcome and immediately shook hands and kissed the dolphin. It was such a wonderful welcome. I remember feeling so happy that my heart was racing. After that, I swam together with the dolphin and had a fun day. I definitely think everyone should go; you won't regret it. The excitement continues to linger.

今回はシ－ライフパ－クにいきました。初めてでしたがイルカと遊ぶを楽しみに、ワクワクしながらプ－ルにいきました。待っていたのは大きなイルカでした。歓迎を受けて早々握手を行いすぐさまイルカとキスをしました。なんとすばらしい歓迎でした。とにかく嬉しくて心臓がドキドキしたのを覚えています。その後一緒に泳いだり、楽しい一日を過ごしました。
皆さん絶対行って損はないとおもいます。感動がつづくこのごろです。

My wife and I were staying in Waikiki for a week and everyone said we need to make a trip to the North Shore when on Oahu. We scoured Trip Advisor, Yelp and other Hawaii Adventure sites and this one looked appealing. Turns out to be a great deal if you are looking for transportation to the North Shore and a variety of options to choose from once you get there. We chose to snorkel in the mornng at Sharks Cove then spend an hour at Waimea Bay, then in the afternoon we did the SUP down the river in Halewia.
The tour is setup where they pick you up on a ~20 person bus from multiple Waikiki hotels, then up a narrated drive up to the North Shore which took about 1 1/2 hours all together. Sam was our host for the day and is awesome at his job. Very knowledgable, humourous and makes the tour a good time. Once you are there, you get to see the options for the day such as hanging at the beach of Waimea Bay, surfing, snorkeling, beach bike cruise, Waimea Botanical Gardens, stand up paddle boarding and probably a few others options that I am missing. There is no additional cost to do these unless you want to do more than two. If there was one draw back for the day, it was that we could have enjoyed a few more hours on the beach and shopping at the local surf shops there.
Overall, great trip and glad we did it!

The weather was nice, and I was worried about the water level for the sound bar, but I was amazed to find it was about ankle-deep. I took a lot of photos. For lunch, we had hamburgers on the boat, and they were delicious! The Japanese female guide was very interesting and a great person, which made the experience even more enjoyable. On the way to the snorkeling point, we were thrilled to see sea turtles and manta rays. There were plenty of fish while snorkeling, and I had a lot of fun. I highly recommend this tour. I would love to go again when I visit Hawaii.

天気も良く、サウンドバーになるか心配していましたが、足首上くらいの水位で、感動しました。
たくさん写真もとりました。
昼は船の上でハンバガー!(^^)!おいしかったです。
日本人のお姉さんガイドもとても面白く良い人でとても楽しめました。
船でシュノーケリングポイントに行く途中にはウミガメ・マンタが見れて感動★
シュノーケリングでも魚がたくさんいて、楽しめました。
このツアーは大変おすすめです。
またハワイに行ったら行きたいと思います。

The scheduled date was canceled due to rough waves and was carried out the next day. I participated this time as a preview, thinking of joining with my grandchildren next time. I heard that the person who participated with me was doing this for the fifth time, and I joined with high expectations, but it turned out to be quite ordinary, which was a bit disappointing. I think it would be great if someone fluent in English could explain. I believe the person explaining should incorporate unique stories to make it even better. I think my grandchildren will have to give up next time due to language barriers.

予約した日程は、波が荒く中止で翌日に実行。次回、孫達と一緒にと思い、下見で今回参加しました。一緒に参加した人は今回で５回目だと聞き、期待度ピークで参加したら、余りにも普通で、期待外れでチョット残念。英語が堪能な方は最高だと思いました。説明する方がユニークな話を交えて最高だと思います。次回孫達は言葉の関係が有り断念せざるを得ないと思っています。

We are a couple well over 60 years old. In March, we went to Maui and boldly tried activities we had never done in Hawaii before. As shown in the photo, we wore sturdy harnesses and helmets, trusting our lives to pulleys and wire ropes as we soared from about 300 meters to 800 meters. At first, we glided a couple of times over a grassy area, and then crossing the valley was thrilling.

It was over in a flash, but we had a great time. Next time, we will bring our grandchildren.

60歳をとうに超えた夫婦です。3月にマウイ島へ行き、いままでハワイでやったことのない遊びに思い切って挑戦しました。　写真のようにかなりしっかりしたハーネス・ヘルメットなどを付けて、滑車とワイヤーロープに命を託してガーッと一気に300mから800mくらいを滑空します。始めは写真のように草原の上で２、３回、その後の谷越えはスリルがありました。
あっというまでしたが、とても楽しかったです。次回は孫を連れて行きます。

I participated with my 10-year-old and 7-year-old children. It was English-only, but there was a brochure written in Japanese, so I didn't have any particular difficulties. The waves were calm, but there was enough rocking that I felt a bit seasick even after taking motion sickness medication. However, once we were in the cage, there were so many sharks that I forgot about the seasickness and had a great time. My 7-year-old son loves sharks, so he was very excited. When he drew a picture of a shark and gave it to the captain on the way back, the captain was very happy. Later, I heard from a local that many participants were from Australia, and while there are shark tours in Australia, they are extremely expensive, so everyone seems to do them here. I bought the DVD for $75, and it became a wonderful memory. I want to go again, but I'm a bit scared of seasickness...

10歳と7歳の子供と参加しました。
英語オンリーですが日本語で書かれたパンフレットもあり、特に困った事はありませんでした。
波は穏やかでしたが酔い止めを飲んでても酔うくらいの揺れはありました。
でも、檻に入ったらたくさんのサメがいて酔いも忘れるほど楽しかったです。
7歳の息子はサメが大好きなので大興奮してました。
息子が帰りにサメの絵を描いて船長さんに渡したらとても喜んでくれました。
後で現地の方に聞いたら、オーストラリアの参加者のかたが多くオーストラリアにもサメツアーはあるのですがものすごく高いので皆さんこちらでやられるそうです。
DVDが75ドルで買いましたがとても良い思い出になりました。
また行きたいけど、船酔いが恐いかな…

I wanted to do something special for my daughter and friend and thought a dinner cruise would be wonderful. I went the extra mile and extra money to upgrade to a window seat . I did the reservation almost three to four weeks in advance Upon boarding we were seated next to the wall. The third window seat was not a window seat but just behind the window seat. If I leaned up and out I could see.
When I asked to be moved I asked the manager if I could be seated next to the window she stated they were full and she offered a bottle of wine, as I don't drink I asked her to treat me like she would treat her mother, and that is when she told me her mother was nice, implying I wasn't. I had thought I had been nice up to that point I had just wanted to see as that is what I had paid for this time(I have been on this tour before and sat in the middle ) They did offer us an upgrade and a nice private table, meaning quiet, back near the door as to not see the show. The upgraded meal was delicious and as we had all lived in Oahu the show was not really missed. I am not sure I would recommend this tour unless you upgraded to the dinner and not the buffet. I would recommend a maximum of two for the window seating and make sure you state near the wall does not count. Other than the manager's attitude which I allowed to bother me, the servers were efficient, courteous and friendly.

In a word, it was so much fun that I want to experience it again. We went up to a height of 150 meters, which was quite high, and the view was beautiful. They will burn the photos onto a CD for $30, and I think it's worth buying. We were worried about theft and didn't bring any money, but there were other Japanese groups there, so theft probably isn't a concern. Definitely give it a try!

一言で言うともう一度体験したいくらい楽しかったです。150mの高さにしたのですが結構高く景色も綺麗でした。写真を$30でCDに焼いてくれますが、これは買ったほうがいいと思います。私たちは盗難が怖くお金を持参しなかったのですが、他の日本人のグループの方もいて盗難とかはおそらく心配なさそです。是非体験してみてください、

# couple booked but we ended up going as 2 1/2 couple3s as one was sick. Great atmosphere interaction was supurb from the multi national public all guided by a great host. Buffet dinner was excellent and then the show topped it off for a great evening awesome value for money here.

Me and and my girlfriend both liked the young guides who picked us up at the North Shore Marketplace parking lot. It was just us two so we felt very privilidged. The Hawaiian guide drove for about 20 min through many farms and got to know much abut them and who owned them, unfortunately much of the land were rented by Monsantos. Part of the drive was very bumpy but became much better when we got unto the military roads. The hike was not that hard mostly because the water wasn´t that high this time. It was partly slippery but our sneekers was enough to manage it. There were some very niice sceneries and crossig over the river and the mountain pool swim at the summit was very pleasent and just what we needed after a 2.5 hours hike. We got to use helmets but just for a very short time. The lunch was two wraps each and was more than enough for us.
The hawaiian native guide told us much about the the hawaiian culture and the problems hawaiians have had keeping their language alive. We also got to know about much about the different plants and trees, and the tight bond to nature hawaiina have had, he also made a hawaiian chant to the forrest when we just started the hike which was very nice to hear. We would recommend this hike to all our friends.

I had high expectations since it was ranked number one, but when I actually went, it felt like just a regular beautiful beach without any sandy areas. It didn't wow me at all, and there was hardly any explanation, making it feel like a really long time. I think it was the biggest disappointment of my week-long trip. It felt like a waste of time.

ここでランキング１位になっていたので、すごく期待していったけど実際に行ってみると
砂浜もなくて普通のきれいな海、という感じでした。
うわーって全然ならなくて、説明とかもほとんどなく、すごく時間が長く感じた。
この１週間の旅行で１番の失敗だったと思う。時間を無駄にした感じだった。

The sea of heaven itself is undoubtedly wonderful, so I'll skip that part.
■BBQ Lunch → It was a freshly grilled hamburger! It was quite filling and I was satisfied! It was delicious.
■Scuba Diving → It was my first experience! I could stay underwater for a long time, and it was a lot of fun!
■Staff → Everyone was friendly! They even sang for us!
■Bus → It might be a bit cold?
Overall, I was very satisfied! I want to go again! ☆

天国の海自体は素晴らしいことは間違いないので省いて、、
■BBQランチ→その場で焼いたハンバーガーでした！結構なボリュームで満足でした！おいしかったです
■スキューバ→初めての体験！長い間潜ってられるのでとても楽しかったです！
■スタッフ→気さくな人ばかりでした！歌も歌ってくれます！
■バス→若干寒いかも？
総合的にとっても満足でした！また行きたいなぁ☆

Riding a buggy was a first-time experience for me! Since I ride a motorcycle in Japan, I had no particular issues, but the problem was my wife who joined me. Unlike cars, driving a buggy requires a bit of strength in handling the steering wheel. My wife, who is not very strong, wobbled to the right and then to the left, and ultimately, we ended up taking a bus tour behind.

It was disappointing that we couldn't ride together, but the activity itself was a lot of fun, and it became a great memory as we got to see breathtaking views that you can't find in Japan! I hear there are horses available too, but I think the buggy offers a stronger sense of speed.

There is a two-hour course available, but I was satisfied with the one-hour ride! Also, the lever under the steering wheel is used to accelerate, but it was quite stiff, and my thumb hurt. In that sense, it might be a bit tough for women who aren't very strong. Of course, there were women who managed to keep up, though!

バギーは初体験でした！
日本ではバイクに乗っていることもあり、男の自分には特に問題なく乗る事が出来ましたが、問題は一緒に参加した嫁でした。
車などとは違い、ハンドルさばきに若干の力が必要です。
非力な嫁は右側にヨロヨロ、、左側にヨロヨロ、、
あえなく後ろからついてくるバスでの観光となりました。

一緒に走る事ができず残念でしたが、アクティビティそのものはとても楽しく、日本では見れない絶景を見ながら走る事ができ良い思い出になりました！
馬もあるようですが、こちらの方が疾走感が強いのでは？

2時間コースもありますが、自分的には1時間で満足でした！
後、ハンドル下のレバーを押す事でアクセルがかかるのですが、これが固くて親指が痛かったです。
そういった意味でも非力な女性にはちょっとキツいかも？もちろんついてくる女性もいましたが^^

The activity description mentions a BBQ lunch, but there was no BBQ lunch provided; only some simple snacks were served... Other than that, I was mostly satisfied.

アクティビティ名にはBBQランチ付とありますが、BBQランチはなく、簡単なスナックが出ただけでした。。。それ以外は、ほぼ満足です。

We spent a week in Oahu at the end of March and visited this ranch with our 6-year-old and 4-year-old daughters. Since we had made a reservation in advance, there were no particularly complicated procedures, and we hardly needed any English, haha. The friendly female staff made the children very happy. However, considering that it takes about two hours round trip from Waikiki, the 30-minute horse ride felt a bit short... The ranch had peacocks running around and was a spacious and lovely place!

3月末から1週間オアフで過ごし、6歳と
4歳の娘たちとこの牧場に遊びに来ました。事前に予約をしているので、特に複雑な手続きなし、英語もほぼ不要でした笑
親切な女性のスタッフで子どもたちも満足してもどってきました^^でもワイキキから往復2時間を考えるとホースライド30分だとちょっと短いかな…。
牧場には、くじゃくが走り回り、広くて素敵な場所でした！

Great driver and very knowledgeable. Helpful with helping everyone with their gear

Third time on my dinner cruise - it was excellent!!!!

Nice view!
I try Parasailing every year!
I will try parasailing at Hawaii parasailing next year!

This was my sixth trip to Hawaii, and I was invited by my daughter to visit Kualoa for the first time. After having a fun conversation with the pickup staff, we arrived after about an hour on the bus. We participated in the location tour, a jeep tour, and a Kaneohe Bay cruise. The location tour was just as I imagined, and it was quite noisy as we were with a group from a training trip in Japan. The jeep tour was more enjoyable than I expected. Our driver, Mr. Leonald, provided easy-to-understand explanations and offered great service by taking photos at the stopping points. The cruise felt a bit like a way to kill time, but the ocean was very beautiful. I think Kualoa is a place worth visiting at least once to enjoy the great nature.

ハワイ６度目にして、娘に誘われクアロアに始めて行きました。
ピックアップのスタッフと楽しく話しながら、バスに揺られて一時間程で到着しました。
ロケ地めぐりとジープツアー、カネオヘ湾クルーズに参加しました。
ロケ地めぐりは想像通りで、日本の研修旅行の団体と一緒になって、うるさかったです。
ジープツアーが思った以上に楽しかったです。ドライバーのMr.Leonaldの説明が分かり易く、途中の停車ポイントでも写真を撮ってくれたりサービス満点でした。
クルーズは時間つぶしの感がありましたが、海がとても綺麗でした。
クアロアの大自然を満喫して一度は行っても良い場所だと思いました。

I participated in the 120m early morning activity.
There were three groups, but all were Japanese!!
It was reassuring.

Since I had read the reviews thoroughly, I immediately recognized that the welcoming bus was driven by Yano-san, and I enjoyed the ride while chatting in broken Japanese.

After the first group finished, when I put on the equipment and soared into the sky, the boat became smaller and smaller, and I found myself in a quiet world.
I had a fantastic view of Diamond Head and the city of Waikiki; it was over in no time.
Even my companion, who is supposed to have a fear of heights, seemed to be having fun.
I didn't make any requests, and in the end, all groups were dunked into the sea up to their waists...
Getting soaked became one of my memories of Hawaii, so I was glad about that.
The waiting time on the cruiser was also enjoyable with the refreshing breeze.

For some reason, I was asked whether I wanted to take photos after the first group had flown, so it felt a bit unfortunate for those who had already taken off and weren't asked.
The response in that regard felt a bit casual.
The photos were saved on an SD card, and it was about $30 for around 70 pictures, but some were blurry or questionable, so compared to reviews mentioning over 100 photos, it felt a bit pricey. It seemed like the person taking the photos was a newcomer?
However, since I didn't bring a camera, I decided to buy them, thinking of it as a tourist price, and in the end, I think it was a good choice. The quality was great since it was a DSLR.

By the way, we left a $10 tip for the two of us.

The reception staff were also good at broken Japanese!
You don't need to worry if you can't speak English.

I definitely recommend this to anyone struggling with activities in Hawaii!!

(I gave it four stars because there was a bit of a gap in the response between Yano-san and the boat captains. This might be typical in Hawaii, though...)

早朝の120mに参加しました。
三組の参加でしたが、全組日本人！！
安心感もありました。

レビューを熟読していたので、お迎えのバスはヤノさんだと一目でわかり、道中はカタコトの日本語で楽しませて頂きました。

一組目がおわり、いざ、装置をつけて空に舞い上がってみると
ボートがどんどん小さくなり静かな世界。
ダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの街が一望でき、素晴らしい眺めで、あっという間でした。
一緒に行った相手も高所恐怖症のはずが、
楽しそうにしていました。
あえて何もリクエストしなかったら、最後は全組腰の位置までじゃぶんと海に落とされましたが…
びしょ濡れになったのもまた、ハワイの思い出のひとつになってよかったです。
待ち時間のクルーザーも風が気持ちよくて楽しかったですよ～

写真はなぜか、一組目が飛んでから撮るかどうか聞かれたので、既に飛び立っていて聞かれなかった方が少し可哀想でした。
その辺り対応は適当な感じでした。
写真はSDカードに入れてくれて、３０ドルで70枚くらいでしたが、ぶれてたり、ん？というものもあったので、100枚以上撮ってくれたレビューを見てしまうと少し割高な感じ。撮っていたのもレクチヤーされてたので新人さん？の様でした。
でもカメラを持っていかなかったので、観光地価格だと思い割りきって買いましたが結果よかったかなと思っています。一眼レフなので、画質はバッチリでした。

因みにチップは二人で１０ドル置いてきました。

受付のお姉さん方も、カタコトですが日本語上手でしたよー！
英語喋れなくても大丈夫です。

ハワイのアクティビティに悩んでる方には是非オススメしたいです！！

(ヤノさんと、ボートのキャプテン達の対応に少し落差があったので、星４つにしました。ハワイではこんなものかもしれませんが…)

wow! Cannot even describe the experience we had.... I really wanted my mother to enjoy this the most and it was great! Although she could not make the hike (because of knee surgery) she had a blast and patiently waited for me to tour and get the pictures for her to cherish.... The hike is a challenge for people with balance issuees, walking, and stairs!!!!! When you climb, you climb but overall we had a perfect and safe trip to this landmark that will be cherished!!!!

I was able to see the scenery I saw in the movie.
There was an explanation in Japanese, so it was easy to understand.
I was able to return in the evening, so I could schedule something else for the night.

映画で見た景色を見ることができました。
日本語の説明があったので、わかりやすかったです。
夕方には帰ってこれたので、夜に別の予定も入れられました。

A great day to snorkel. The drivers were well informed and explained everything we needed to know. They even were very knowledgable during to drive to and from the bay. Definately recommend this tour.

The staff is really really nice !!
They are So many things to do ( snorkelling / paddle / games ...)
This is really not expensive for all that.
The weather wasn't really good this day but still had a great great time

I won't forget the excitement of being close to the dolphins, but I also won't forget the wonderful view of the mountains from the sea! It became a great memory with the kids ❤️

イルカがすく近くにいたときの感動も、忘れませんが、海から見た山々の景色の素晴らしさも忘れません！子供達とのいい思い出になりました❤️

I was torn between horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch, but it turned out to be the right choice.

The 90-minute ride was quite fulfilling.

There were a total of eight people: two Japanese couples and four from an Asian family.

With staff positioned at the front and back, there's no need to worry if the horses take a detour or lag behind, as they guide you along the way.

We rode in a line through the forest, and the forest bathing felt wonderful. At the end, we were moved to see the ocean. They also took plenty of photos with our cameras.

Overall, since we were with others participating in different activities, there was a bit of wasted time. We stopped at places that weren't necessary to visit.

A package that includes just horseback riding and free time in Haleiwa Town would be great.

クアロア牧場での乗馬と迷いましたが、こちらで大正解でした。
９０分の乗馬はかなり乗り応えあります。

全部で８人。
日本人２人×２組、アジアのファミリー４。

先頭と最後尾に、スタッフがつく形なので、
途中でお馬さんが寄り道したり、遅くなったりしても、
誘導してくれるので心配いりません。

列になって、森の中を進んでいきます。
森林浴がとても気持ちいいです♪
最後に海が見えてきて、感動です。
写真も自分たちのカメラでいっぱいとってくれました。


全体としては、
他のアクティビティーに参加する人と一緒なので、
まあまあ時間のロスがあります。
行かなくていいとこにも寄ります。

ハレイワタウンでのフリータイムと乗馬だけのセットだといいです。

Horseback riding on the sandy beach was only for taking photos; we just slowly walked along the flat path by the coast. The scenery and sea breeze were pleasant. The horse was gentle, so I hardly had to control it and was just sitting there. The staff were kind and beautiful, which was lovely, but honestly... the riding itself wasn't very interesting, so I struggled a lot with the tip after the ride. I think it's suitable for beginners.

砂浜での乗馬は写真撮影の時だけ、海岸脇の平らな歩道をゆっくり散歩するだけでした。景色と海風は気持ち良かったです。馬は大人しいのでほとんど操作することがなく、だだ乗っているだけでした。スタッフは親切でしたし美人さんで素敵だったんですけど、正直・・・乗馬自体は、あまり面白くなかったので乗馬終了後のチップにすごく困りました。初心者向けだと思います。
