All Reviews for Teen Adventures (Ages 13-17)

We participated in mid-October as a couple in our 60s. Among the approximately 20 participants from Japan, everyone except us were newlyweds. There were also couples from Australia who were retired.

Due to the timing, the tide was high, and the white sand was not visible until the tide went out. If you want to walk on the white sand shown in the photos, you'll need to adjust your timing for participation.

However, with the blue sky and sea, the uniquely shaped mountains visible in the distance, and the cheerful hospitality of the crew on board, I felt a sense of liberation. We also saw sea turtles and manta rays. I would like to participate again.

If you're looking for clearer water and a variety of fish while snorkeling, Hanauma Bay might be a better option.

10月中旬に60歳台夫婦で参加。日本から参加された方20名程は、私たち以外新婚さんでした。他にはオーストラリアから来たリタイア後のご夫婦もいた。
時期的に潮が高くて、白い砂が見えるまで潮が引いてはいなかった。写真にある白い砂の上を歩きたければ、参加時期の調整は必要。
でも、青い空と海、視界に見える独特の形をした山、船上クルーの方々の陽気なおもてなしがあり、心が解放された気分になった。ウミガメとマンタも見られた。また参加したい。
シュノーケリング時の海の透明度や見られる魚の豊富さを求めるなら、ハナウマベイの方が良いかも。

We headed to Kualoa Ranch while picking up participants from each hotel. Upon arrival, there was an explanation in Japanese, which was easy to understand. By the way, the explanation while riding is in English. The two-hour ride through the vast grounds, with its ups and downs, offered beautiful views from high places. Since you stay on the horse the whole time, it might feel a bit long if it's your first time riding. They took photos for us as a service. I would like to visit again the next time I go to Hawaii.

各ホテルで参加者をピックアップしながらクアロアランチへ向かいました。
到着後すぐに日本語での説明があり、分かり易かったです。
ちなみに乗馬しながら聞く説明は英語です。
広大な敷地をアップダウンしながらの２時間。高い場所から見る景色はとても美しかったです。
ずっと乗ったままなのでこれが人生初の乗馬であった場合、少々長く感じるかもしれません。
サービスで写真を撮っていただきました。
次にハワイへ行った時にはまた訪ねたいと思います。

My husband, 71, and I, 64, went kayaking in the Hawaiian sea for about an hour! With Hawaiian music playing, we headed to the sandbar. The water was deep up to my shoulders, which was a bit scary, but thanks to the wonderful people at the sandbar who took care of us, it became a fun memory. I am grateful.

夫71歳、私64歳が、ハワイの海でⅠ時間程、カヤックをやりました!ハワイアンミュジックが流れる中、サンドバーへ。ただ肩までの深さがあり、少し怖かったのですが、お世話してくださったサンドバーの皆様のおかげで、楽しい思い出となりました。感謝しております。

This tour includes a sandwich lunch at Tantalus after visiting Manoa Falls. I signed up mainly for the Manoa Falls hike, but the lunch sandwiches and the view from Tantalus were just as great! The guide also took a lot of photos for us, thank you.

For those participating, my advice is that there are many mosquitoes in Manoa, so I recommend bringing insect repellent and, if possible, wearing long sleeves and long pants. Also, since it's a rainy area, the ground can be slippery. Having non-slip shoes would be reassuring.

こちらのツアーはマノアの滝の後に、タンタラスの丘でのサンドイッチランチがついていて、マノアの滝ハイキングメインで申し込みましたが、同じくらいランチのサンドイッチとタンタラスの丘からの景色がとてもよかったです！
ガイドさんもたくさん写真をとってくれたり、ありがとうございました。
参加される方へのアドバイスは、マノアは蚊が多いので、虫よけの持参、できれば長袖、長ズボンをおすすめします。あと、雨が多い地域なので地面が滑ります。滑りにくい靴があると安心です。

Most of the time took pictures and saw the historical hollywood filming locations. The best part was when a staff took pictures for us at a ranch and made us run from one side to another. Absolutely had no clue of why we had to run but there was a video recorded by the staff which was incredible. There was a toy dinosaur that looked like it was chasing after us (like one of the scenes you see in the movies). The ways how they record you on video and take photos are splendid and their ideas are so creative.

One of the most exciting moments during my stay in Waikiki. This is a must do activity but depends if you are scared of heights and other health factors since everyone is different. I will be doing this again and made a reservation just now again during my stay at Waikiki. It is about a 6-8 minute up in the air while the camera man takes pictures of you and you buy the pictures as additional but you regret if you don't buy it. The pictures are well taken and the most fun part is when you come down; you get dropped into the water (this is optional too) but it is part of the experience in which almost everyone did. I cannot wait to be parasailing in about a month. Will be the best way to end the year right!

The guide spoke Japanese, but the horseback riding instructor hardly understood it.
Tips are necessary, so you need to prepare cash.
However, the experience was all great!

ガイドさんは日本語が通じますが乗馬インストラクターはほぼ日本語通じませんでした。
チップが必要であり現金を用意しておく必要かあります。
しかしながら体験は全て良かったです！

Our experiences were great. First we had a chance to do the underwater scooter and give food to our loving fishes. Camera man constantly took pictures of us which we received it later through purchasing it. We did not see turtles directly but definitely it was an experience we would be doing again. There were two teams in the boat where one team goes for the underwater scooter and another goes for snorkeling under the guidance of our team. Overall, the pictures made it another unforgettable experience so make sure to purchase the pictures when the guide asks you if you want the pictures or not. It was sent through email so fast and quick.

The sunset cruise was absolutely gorgeous and worth of your time. It was our anniversary with my wife and had a wonderful evening with the awesome Hula show and with the friendly crew members on board. Customer service was excellent and we will be coming back shortly. Food was of course great too and my favorite part was the BBQ chicken with the MaiTai cocktail!

Everything was Amazing from the staff to the gorgeous view


Definitely need to come back with my family next time


Thank you

We had a wonderful time. It was perfect. Lots of stunning views. The two best tour guides. We would definitely do it again. We got beautiful pics of the whole tour.

When it comes to horseback riding in Hawaii, I thought there was only Kualoa Ranch, but I was surprised to find out you can ride along the North Shore coast!! (Even my local friends didn't know about it.) It was definitely refreshing!! I have experience riding both domestically and internationally, but it's totally fine for first-timers as well. However, if you go on a tour, the time for exploring the North Shore town will be a bit short, which is a little disappointing.

ハワイで乗馬といえば、クアロア・ランチしかないと思っていましたが、ノースの海岸沿いで乗馬できるとは！！（現地の友人も知りませんでした。）
やっぱり爽快です！！　
乗馬は国内外で何度か経験はありましたが、初めての方でも全然大丈夫ですよ。　ツアーの場合はノースの街の散策の時間は短くなるのでその辺はちょっと残念かも。

Our first time in Hawaii and first time doing something like this. The staff was amazing, kind, and professional. They made us feel safe and made sure we were having a great time. The snacks and refreshments were great as well. My wife and I had an amazing time seeing dolphins, turtles and even flying fish. Thank you for this experience.

Our tour included four groups with a total of ten people. Since two people go parasailing at a time, we had five sessions of ten minutes each. Including the time for putting on and taking off the gear, the total activity lasted just over an hour. The instructions were all in English, but they also used gestures, so I was able to participate without any anxiety.
During parasailing, it was refreshing! I felt like a bird. We flew quite high, allowing us to see all of Waikiki, which was a wonderful experience.
While the ride itself was great, during takeoff and landing for parasailing, we stopped and floated, so I think those who are prone to seasickness should take motion sickness medication in advance.
At the end of the parasailing, there was a surprise where we dipped into the sea up to our waists, so I recommend wearing a swimsuit!

私達を含め4組10名でのツアーでした。2名づつパラセーリングをするので、5回✖️10分。装具の付け外しなど含めトータル1時間少しのアクティビティでした。説明は全て英語でしたがジェスチャーも交えてくださり不安なく参加できました。
パラセーリング中は爽快！鳥になった気分です。かなり高く飛ぶのでワイキキを一望出来とても素晴らしい体験でした。
滑走中は良いのですがパラセーリングの離発着時は停止しぷかぷかと浮いた状態なので船酔いしやすい方は事前に酔い止めを飲んだ方が良いと思います。
パラセーリングの終盤ではチャプンと腰くらいまで海に浸かるサプライズ付きなので水着着用をオススメします！

The weather was favorable, and we had a great experience. There were five groups on the same boat, but aside from the actual parasailing, we had to wait on the boat, which caused some people to feel seasick, so I felt that motion sickness medication was essential. Fortunately, my husband and I had taken medication in advance, so we were able to enjoy the views of Waikiki while waiting on the boat. We also bought many photos during the parasailing, which became wonderful memories.

天候にも恵まれ、よい体験ができました。　5組が同じボートでしたが、パラセール本番以外は、ボートで待機のため、船酔いをされる方もあり、酔い止めは必須と感じました。幸い、我々（夫婦）は事前に薬を服用したこともあり、ボートで待機中もワイキキの風景を楽しめました。パラセール中の写真もたくさん購入でき、良い思い出となりました。

From the photos, the cheaper options have a beer garden-like atmosphere. I chose the most expensive one. There were many people celebrating honeymoons or anniversaries, creating a calm yet lively ambiance with live piano and saxophone music.

The weather was fantastic, and I floated high up into the sky. It felt like I was riding on a swing as I ascended. I didn't feel any seasickness and had a great time. My son said to me, "It's impressive that you decided to do something like this at your age." But with parasailing, it seems like it's something I could do even as I get older.

天気もサイコーでフワフワと空高くまで上がりました。
ただブランコに乗っているような感じで上がっていきました。
船酔いする事もなく、楽しく体験できました。
息子には「いい年してよくこんな体験する気になったね。」と言われてしまいました。
でも、パラセーリングなら、歳をとっても出来そうです。

The tour guide was great, the horses were lovely, the scenery was perfect, and the ride was peaceful and relaxing, but you won’t see the sunset on the beach like the photos suggest you will. (It sets behind the mountain across the street from the riding tour, which was a disappointment for me considering the name of the tour and the photos!)

My cousin and I had an amazing time. The stuff was awesome; helpful and fun.
This is a very cool location; we went during high tide and have no regrets of selecting that time slot. The weather was warm, the water was calm and clear. We took advantage of all of the activities; we kayaked, paddle boarded and hung out on the floating platform. The live music was the cherry on top. I would definitely recommend booking this specific tour.

We participated as a couple. Since it was a day to drive around Maui with a rental car, we opted for the meet-up plan, but we arrived just in time for check-in. There were some traffic jams, so I think it's best for those going on their own to plan to arrive early.

We took turns driving. It was a pretty long drive, so it was good to switch off. Our faces got really dirty! My clothes were covered in dust, so I recommend wearing clothes that you wouldn't mind throwing away.

Driving a buggy at high speed through the great outdoors was thrilling and a lot of fun! The guide only spoke English, so I didn't understand much of the commentary along the way, but I still enjoyed the scenery.

夫婦で参加しました。レンタカーでマウイ島を回る日だったので現地集合プランでしたが受付時間ギリギリの到着でした。
渋滞した道もあったので、自力で行く方は早めに着く想定が良いと思います。

夫と交代で運転しました。結構長い時間走るので、交代して良かったです。
顔は真っ黒になります！服もすすだらけになったので、捨ててもいいくらいの服で参加することをおすすめします。

大自然の中をバギーでスピードを出して走るので、スリルもあってとても楽しかったです！
ガイドは英語のみなので道中の解説はほぼわかりませんでしたが、景色だけでも楽しめました

We thoroughly enjoyed the show! Would have loved more.

This was my first time participating. It was rewarding to not just watch it in videos but to actually visit and experience it. They also had various souvenirs for sale, which was great.

初めて参加しました。
動画で見るだけでなく実際に訪問して体験できたことが収穫
お土産も色々販売しております良かったです。

I visited Kualoa Ranch, which was recommended by an acquaintance for my first trip to Hawaii. There was a Japanese-speaking guide on site, which provided a sense of security. The buggies get quite dirty from the dust, but it was a fun experience. I definitely think it's worth trying at least once.

初めてのハワイ旅行で知人に勧められたクアロア・ランチを訪問しました。
現地には日本語ガイドさんが在中していますので、安心感がありました。
バギーはかなり土埃で汚れますが、楽しい体験ができました。是非、一度チャレンジした方が良いと思います。

On our way home we were talking about what our favorite part of the trip to Hawaii was and everyone said the Raptor Adventure. The two guides were awesome! Actually all the guides we encountered were super friendly. The scenery was beautiful from the mountains, the ocean views, and the movie clip views. We even saw some cows up close and pet a horse. We will definitely come back again and highly recommend it.

The tour was fun! Our Drivers gave us information about sites as we drove along! We stopped at the macadamia nut farm and fruit stand!! He gave us options about what was available for us to do! I was with a big group, we chose hiking to the waterfall and kayaking/paddleboarding!! The hike was along a paved road so not much hiking but swimming in a waterfall was worth it!! Make sure you wear water shoes that can tolerate walking on rocks if you get in at the waterfall! And while paddle boarding, I saw a turtle then ate gelato at one of the vendors near the lake!
Overall 9/10 experience!!! Would have loved to have gone to the beach as well but time didn’t permit

I went to Hawaii for the first time on my honeymoon.

I was a bit anxious about whether I would be able to ride a horse since it was my first experience, but there was no problem at all!! The guide (who spoke English, but it was fine) provided great assistance while riding, so I felt reassured. They chose a horse that suited me. The horse was very smart, and when I gave commands with my legs, it would walk along the trail by itself, which was amusing.

While riding, I was able to enjoy the beautiful sea and mountains, experiencing the magnificent nature that you can't feel in Japan. I'm really glad I participated! It became my favorite memory of the Hawaii trip.

However, since it was a two-hour ride, my butt and legs became very sore... After getting off the horse, my legs were shaking for a while, which was funny. But even with that, I think it's a tour I would highly recommend!!

There were few dining options, and the burger I wanted had a long line, so I ended up settling for a sandwich from the shop, which I regret a little... The horse keychain at the shop was cute! ♡

ハネムーンで初ハワイにいきました。

乗馬体験は初めてだったので、直ぐにのれるようになるのか不安でしたが、
全然問題ないです！！
馬に乗る際も、ガイドさん(英語ですが大丈夫)がしっかり補助をしてくれるので安心です。人に合わせて馬を選んでくれていました。
お馬さんもとても賢いので、脚で指示を促すと勝手に散歩コース？を歩いてくれます笑

馬に乗りながら綺麗な海と山を眺めて、日本では感じられない壮大な大自然を体験することができて本当に参加できて良かったです！
ハワイ旅行の中で一番思い出になりました。

ただ二時間乗馬なので、お尻と脚がとても痛くなります、、
馬から降りた後は暫く脚がガクガクしていました笑
ですが、それを引き換えにしてもおススメ出来るツアーだと思います！！

飲食店が少なく、お目当てのハンバーガーはとても並んでいて時間がなかったので、売店のサンドウィッチで済ませたのが少し心残り、、
売店の馬のキーホルダーが可愛かったです♡

It was an awesome experience. Our tour guide was knowledgeable. The slow pace of the hike was good, gave us all the time and just admire the beauty of the forests.

I signed up for a self-driving course. It was pouring rain, and I bought a poncho from a vending machine. I didn't get my body wet, but my arms, legs, and shoes were soaked. I followed the guide at the front and drove.

I thought I would have to join a half-day tour to see sea turtles, but I found a tour in the Waikiki area that only took about 2 to 3 hours, and it was really great.

The instructor continuously pointed out where the sea turtles were while we were snorkeling, so it was easy to follow along and see them! I was very happy to swim with several sea turtles. I plan to request this tour again when I go back to Hawaii.

半日かけたツアーに参加しないとウミガメには会えないかなと思っていたのですが、ワイキキ界隈で2、3時間程度で催行してくれるツアーでとても良かったです。

インストラクターの方が、ウミガメいる場所を随時教えてくれながらのシュノーケリングだった為、ついていけば会える！が叶えられました。何匹ものウミガメと、一緒に泳げたのがとても嬉しかったです。またハワイに行ったらお願いしようと思います。

My family had an awesome time flying with these professionals. They treated us very special and it was a great way to see the island. Flying over the WWII ships; from above you see what you can't on the ground. I would highly recommend this as a way to see the island. My husband, daughter and I all had a great time.
