All Reviews for Teen Adventures (Ages 13-17)

The trip was great, service, experience and activities were all well worth it.
The boat trip, snorkeling, dinner, drinks and a dolphin sighting for one price was amazing.

Very highly recommended. Wonderful experience. Delicious food. Friendly staff!

I go to Hawaii at least once a year but never knew about the sandbar until a year ago when friends took us out on their fishing boat. It was such a cool experience that this time I decided to book this excursion and it was the best experience ever! The boat they took us out on was big and clean with toilets. They had refreshments, doughnuts and a really good musician that played for us on the way out and back. Once we got to the sandbar, they had floating barge, kayaks, paddle boards and snorkeling all set up and ready to go in waist deep water all around. It was perfect for my 6 year old. There was a staff member to help us at each station and they were really attentive and helpful. I've been telling everyone that a trip to Oahu is not complete unless they experience this.

As others have mentioned, the boat arrived more than 10 minutes late for check-in. Even with non-English speakers present, there was no effort to speak slowly or accommodate them; all explanations were given in English.

We did get to see sea turtles, but it seemed like there weren't many that day, as we only encountered a couple of them coming up to the surface a few times.

他の方の書き込み通り、集合時間より10分以上遅れて船の方が出てきてチェックインの開始でした。
そして英語圏ではない人が居ても、ゆっくり話すなど気を使うこともなく、全て英語での説明でした。

海亀は会えましたが、その日はあまり居なかったのか海面に上がってくる子に2、3回会えた感じでした。

I participated in the afternoon, and the weather was cloudy. I rented equipment because I wanted to experience snorkeling. The wind was strong, and I almost got swept outside the buoy, but the staff member quickly came to help and provided support, which was reassuring. While snorkeling, many fish were swimming around the coral reefs, making it feel like an aquarium. After getting cold, I returned to the boat for a light lunch with sandwiches. The staff's live ukulele and guitar performance was very good and added to the fun atmosphere. There were more foreign guests (Mexican, Spanish, and others) than Japanese guests on board, creating a lively ambiance. If the weather had been a bit sunnier and the wind calmer, I might have enjoyed it even more. It might also be good to check the low tide times before going.

午後からの参加で天気は曇り。SAPを体験したくてレンタル。風が強くてブイの外まで流されそうになったが、スタッフのお兄さんがすぐにHELPに来てくれてサポートしてくれるので安心でした。シュノーケリングでは多くの魚がサンゴ礁の周りを泳いでいて水族館のよう。体が冷えた後は船内に戻り、サンドイッチで軽くランチ。スタッフのウクレレ&ギターの生演奏がとても上手で、盛り上げてくれました。船内は日本人客より外国人客（ﾒｷｼｶﾝ、ｽﾊﾟﾆｯｼｭ、others）の方が多く、とても賑やかな雰囲気でした。もう少し晴天と風が緩やかであれば、もっと楽しめたかも。あと干潮時を調べていくと良いかも。

I attended with my 7-year-old child. I was prepared for basic English, but thanks to Shoot's consideration, the magic show included some Japanese, allowing both my child and wife to understand and enjoy it very much. It was a type of magic that you don't often see in Japan, and it helped me rediscover its fun! If there's another opportunity, I would definitely like to participate again.

7歳の子供を連れての参加でした。
基本英語を覚悟してましたが、shootさんの心遣いで日本語も交えたマジックショーで子供も奥さんも理解しながら大変楽しく参加させて頂きました。
日本ではなかなか見ないマジックでしたが、改めてその楽しさを再発見させてもらいました！
また機会があれば是非参加させてもらいます。

Scenery was ok, very dusty ride on raptor 4 wheel drive. No warning of dusty conditions. Couldn’t breathe. Food was ok. Not enough toilet facilities

The Kualoa Ranch was the best part of our trip! It is the most perfect place to see beautiful Oahu and such an amazing experience. The tour guides are the best and so informative of the Hawaiian culture and best sources of information. They only added more to such an amazing experience.

Food and service were great! Watching the sunset out on the water was amazing. Easy Uber ride to/from our hotel in Waikiki. Would definitely recommend and do again!

Our tour guide Keoki (George) was amazing. He took us throughout the land and showed us all around the area. We didn't know what to expect when we went on this tour and this tour blew our minds. We rode for hours and the scenery was amazing. Keoki went above and beyond and took pictures and videos for us. We learned about the history, plantation and so much more. I love the fact that it's a private tour and only a few people were on the tour.
It made it so much more personal. Thank you Keoki! Looking forward to doing this tour again when we come back to visit.

We had no trouble even with our limited English skills. We rented an umbrella as an option, but it was difficult to set up due to the strong wind. When we rented on-site, the staff helped us set it up properly. The water at Hanauma Bay was definitely clearer and more beautiful than in Waikiki. Our child was very happy to see many different types of fish.

英語力のない私達でも不自由はありませんでした。オプションでパラソルを借りましたが、風が強く設置が大変でした。現地で借りるとスタッフがしっかりと設置してくれていました。ハナウマの海はワイキキより断然透明で美しかったです。子供はたくさんの種類の魚を見ることができ、とても喜んでいました。

Highly recommend for anyone a great family activity!

The whole night was fun and a memorable experience. The food was good, entertainment was excellent and staff very courteous and accommodating.
We would highly recommend this Sunset Dinner Cruise on a Friday night to see the fireworks.

I was thrilled to see sea turtles. It's a rare experience, and if you go to Hawaii, it's definitely something you should do. I was satisfied with the many photos and videos I was able to take.

ウミガメが見れて感激。
なかなか出来ない体験でハワイへ行ったらぜひ行って欲しい体験です。
沢山写真に動画も撮れて満足でした。

We enjoyed 15 minutes of live music on the boat and spent 2 hours playing in the shallow area. The captain and other staff were all cheerful and fun, and the live music added to the great atmosphere. Although the weather was cloudy, the water wasn't cold, and we had plenty of activities to enjoy. It seemed difficult to get there on our own, so we opted for the shuttle service to the hotel.

生演奏付きの船で15分、遠浅のエリアで2時間遊びました。
キャプテンやその他のスタッフがみんな陽気で楽しく、生演奏も雰囲気が良かったです。
お天気が曇りだったのですが、水も冷たくなくたっぷりアクティビティを楽しめました。
自力で行くのは難しそうだったので、ホテルまでの送迎をオプションで付けました。

Awsome experience with experienced guides.
Swam close to turtles en enjoyed sailing up and down the bay while sipping champagne.

Highlight was the Polynesian show. Food was ok, deserts were good. Complimentary drinks were average. Purchased drinks were pricey. Overall, did not get to see much of a sunset by being busy with the food and the show. It felt more like sitting in a restaurant since the boat was moving slow and sturdy unless you come out to grab the food.

I didn't expect to line up for tickets on the day instead of making a reservation online. However, since I was able to go as planned, I am mostly satisfied.

Considering the timing, it was just right to have an 11 AM pickup with my 6 and 9-year-old children. The person in charge provided various explanations and guidance throughout the car ride. Other Japanese guests were using translation apps, but since I didn't use one, I only understood parts of the conversation. I wish I had downloaded the app. My children had a very enjoyable time and it seems to have left a lasting impression on them. They said they want to go see the fish again.

ネット予約でチケットとっているのではなく当日チケットに並ぶとは思っていませんでした。が予定通りに行けたのでほぼ満足です。
時間的には6歳9歳の子供がいたので11時ピックアップでちょうどよかったと思います。担当の方も車中ずーと色々と説明、案内してくださっていました。他の日本人は翻訳アプリで聞いていましたが、翻訳アプリ使用しなかったので所々しかわからず。アプリを入れておけば良かったと思いました。子供たちにはとても楽しい時間になり印象に残ったようです。またお魚見に行きたいと行っています。

- We participated as a family of four: two adults and two children (ages 9 and 6).
- It's better to have at least a basic level of English conversation skills.
- We had the same driver for both trips. We gave a tip after getting off on the return trip.
- It was a bit chilly when we got to the beach, possibly due to the slightly bad weather. The children were shivering.
- Although we saw many fish in the shallow waters just a few meters from the beach, it wasn't very impressive.

・家族4人で参加。大人2、子供2(9歳,6歳)。
・日常会話程度の英語力はあった方がいい。
・往復同じドライバーさんだった。チップは復路の降車後に渡した。
・少し天気が悪かったせいか、浜に上がると少し寒かった。子供は震えていた。
・浜から数メートルの浅瀬にしては多くの魚が見れたが、感動はなかった。

(About the meeting place)
It was noted that we should arrive 30 minutes early, but I was a bit late. I mistakenly got off at the wrong bus stop and dashed over, but even being 2-3 minutes late didn’t seem to matter much.
*Since it’s a bit of a walk from the bus stop, I recommend allowing extra time.

(At the reception)
A girl in her late teens assisted me without checking any documents. After confirming my name on a tablet, I wrote my name in two places on the confirmation document and waited about 20 minutes on a bench. She was very pleasant. She warned me to be careful as the bench was hot from the sun.
*It might be a good idea to bring a pet bottle since there’s no supermarket nearby and there’s little shade where you wait.

(About the boat)
It’s a smaller boat that takes about 10-15 minutes to head out to sea.
*At first, it goes slowly, but midway it picks up speed unexpectedly, causing the boat to rock quite a bit, so I definitely recommend taking motion sickness medication. Even holding onto the boat’s ramp, your body can feel weightless. In front of us, a boy who looked like he was in elementary school seemed to have gotten seasick, as he returned pale and lethargic.

(About luggage and photos)
There’s a hole under the boat seats where you’re instructed to put all your belongings. You can take out your phone to take photos and videos during the ride, but since it gets quite bumpy, it might be better to take them at the beginning.

(About parasailing)
You put on the equipment and life jacket and wait your turn. There are two people, one who operates the equipment and another who explains how to put it on. The person explaining was humorous and spoke to us in Japanese, which made it easy to enjoy. When they realized there were Japanese people, they spoke in Japanese after English, which was very kind of them.

Even a child in our group who seemed scared at first got used to it once we were up, and when they came down, they looked like they had a lot of fun, so I think it’s fine.

The only scary parts were getting out to sea on the boat and the moment of going up, but once you’re up, it’s totally fine! I was amazed by the blue of the ocean.

After going up, you can touch the sea. They take a lot of photos while you’re going up and coming down, so if you have time, you might want to pose.

(After finishing)
After it was over, they asked if I wanted to purchase the photos. They were a bit pricey, but I bought them as a keepsake. It was convenient as the photos were immediately available by connecting to a computer.

Since my body was wet, I walked for about 3 minutes to Waikiki Beach and swam right away.

（待ち合わせ場所について）
30分前には必着と注意書きにありましたが
少し遅れてしまいました。
バス停を一つ間違えてダッシュしましたが
2.3分遅れても、あまり気にしてない感じでした。
※バス停から少し歩くので余裕を持って行った方が
　良いと思います。

（受付）
女の子（10代後半位）が対応してくれて
書類も確認なしで、タブレットで名前確認をしたら
確認書類に名前を2箇所書いて、
20分くらいベンチで待ちました。
とても感じのいい子でした。

※ペットバトル1本は持参した方が良いかも
（近くにスーパーがない、待つ所は日陰が少ない）

（船について）
小さめの船で10〜15分で、
沖の方に連れて行ってくれます。
※序盤はゆっくりだが、中盤からスピードが思いの外でて、船が上下してだいぶ揺れるので酔い止めは必ず飲むべきだと思います。
船のスロープをもっていても体が浮きます。
自分達の前の組で小学生位の男の子が、
恐らく酔ったのか、顔が青ざめてぐったりして帰ってきてました。

（荷物•写真などついて）
船の椅子の下に穴が空いてるのでそこに荷物全部入れるように指示があります。
携帯途中出して写真や動画撮影OKですが、揺れが強くなるので撮るなら最初の方に撮ったほうがいいかも。

（パラセーリングについて）

器具とライフジャケットをつけて順番を待ちます。
操縦してくれる人と説明器具装着をしてくれる人
２人で、説明•器具装着の人はユーモア交えて日本語で話しかけてくれるので安心して楽しめました。
日本人がいると分かると、英語の後日本語で話してくれるのでとても優しかったです。

同じグループの小学生位の子でも、最初は怖がっていたけどいざ上がったら慣れるので降りてきたら
とても楽しそうにしてたので大丈夫だと思います。


怖いのは船で沖に出るまでと、上に上がる瞬間位で
いざ上がれば全然平気でした！
海の青さに感動しました。

一度上まで上がった後、海につけられます。
上に上がるまでと降りるまで写真をたくさん撮ってくれるので、余裕があればポーズとってもいいかも

（終了後）

終わったら、写真を購入するか？ときかれます。
少し高いですが、記念で買いました。
パソコンから線を繋いですぐに写真が入るので便利でした。

体が濡れてたので、右の方に徒歩3分くらいでワイキキビーチにいけるのでそのまま泳ぎました。

I don’t usually leave reviews unless it’s a really terrible experience OR an AWESOME ONE! Let me just start by saying my group & I did this on Thursday and we booked to go back on Saturday!!! That’s how amazing the crew and the experience was! Worth every penny.
We had an 8 yr old and she was able to enjoy the water too it’s deff kid friendly.
You can take your cooler with beer, drinks and snacks. The water is crystal clear and only like 3-4 ft tall. Take cash to tip the crew and live band, they’re ALL so awesome!!

Everyone involved were fantastic. The crew on the boat were unreal and hilarious. Would highly recommend. Great bunch of people.

Very well organized , all personnel very friendly and knowledgeable, very intense and cultural .
buffet was great .

At the beginning of April, there are still rainy days. On the day of the tour at Kualoa Ranch, it rained all day. I was able to enjoy the bus tour to some extent. It would have been better if there had been a tour in Japanese since all the explanations were in English.

4月の初めはまだ雨の日がある。クアロアランチの当日は終日雨。
バスでのツアーのためにそれなりに楽しめました。説明はすべて英語のために日本語でのツアーがあればもっと良かった。

This tour is a lot of fun as you can really feel like you're abroad, with all the other guests being foreigners. On the day of the tour, we were told it would be the best day ever, and when we arrived, we saw 5 to 6 turtles sleeping on the ocean floor, which was a sight I had never seen before. Of course, there were also many turtles swimming around, and during snorkeling, it was filled with turtles. I was surprised to see so many turtles in Waikiki.

After snorkeling, we enjoyed a cruise while listening to famous international songs, taking in views of Waikiki hotels and Diamond Head. We raised the sails and sped up, enjoying a leisurely time with a pleasant breeze.

Don't forget to bring tips!

私たち以外全て外国人のお客様なので、海外にいることを感じられ、とても楽しめるツアーです。当日、今日は最高の一日になる、との説明があり、期待して行くと、カメが海底でくっついて5～6匹寝ており、こんな光景は初めてでした。勿論、泳いでいるカメも何匹もいて、シュノーケル最中はカメだらけでした。こんなにもワイキキにカメがいるとは驚きでした。
シュノーケル後は、海外の有名な曲を聴きながら、ワイキキのホテルやダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めながらのクルージング。帆を上げてスピードアップをしながら、心地よい風と共にゆっくり過ごしました。
チップを忘れないで持っていって下さい。

We tried ATV and Jurassic park,
Beautiful sceneries and fun movie settings.
Great day out for both of us.

This is a university that I always rely on.

It's a fun activity.

Please note that bananas are not allowed to be brought in!

いつもお世話になる大学です

楽しいアクティビティです

バナナは持ち込み出来ないので注意してくださいね！！

I was told there would be an English guide, but they used simple Japanese, so I was able to enjoy it without any problems. I'm glad I could try parasailing in Hawaii for the first time! The ocean was beautiful, and I could see Diamond Head clearly. They took a lot of photos for me (for $40), creating the best memories! I got more seasick than I expected, so those who are prone to motion sickness should be careful.

英語案内ということでしたが、片言の日本語を使ってくれたので特に問題なく楽しめました。
初めてのパラセーリングをハワイでできて良かったと思います！
海が綺麗で、ダイヤモンドヘッドがよく見えて、写真もたくさん撮ってくれて（40ドル）最高の思い出です！
思ったより船酔いしたので、酔いやすい方はご注意です。

I love Jurassic Park and have always wanted to visit this place. It all started when the theme song began to play on the bus! It was an English tour, but I always choose English tours no matter the country, and I really enjoy the friendly atmosphere with the other international guests. The guide was also proactive in taking photos, which made me, as a solo tour participant, very happy!

This tour is a must for both movie lovers and nature enthusiasts when visiting Hawaii.

ジュラシックパーク大好きでずっと行ってみたかった場所へ
バスの中であのテーマソングが流れ始めた所からスタート！！
英語ツアーでしたが、私はどこの国でも英語ツアーにしていて周りの外人さん達の和気あいあいな雰囲気が大好きです。
ガイドさんも率先して撮影して頂き、1人ツアー参加の私には本当に嬉しかったです！

大自然と撮影地、映画好きの方にも自然好きの方にもハワイへ来たら是非参加して欲しいツアーでした。

It was my first time parasailing. The weather was great, and the sea was beautiful—absolutely amazing! The boat ride was full of thrills. I want to do it again!

初めてのパラセイリングでした
天気も良く、海もキレイ最高でした
ボートもスリル満点
また、やりたい‼️
