All Reviews for Teen Adventures (Ages 13-17)

Here are a few points to keep in mind for your reference! First, during Golden Week, it might still be a bit chilly to go into the water. I had a towel in my belongings, but I forgot it on the day, but it was okay since they were selling them at the shop. If you took commemorative photos, please go to the blue building (next to the sea lions) after the activity to pick up your photos. It seems that some people forget to take them home. There is one Japanese guide in the park who can teach you various things if you need assistance. The dolphin show starts at 12:30, but it overlaps with lunchtime. You can order takeout from the restaurant and eat while watching the show. The restaurant is somewhat pricey. For the round-trip tour, the return time was not written on the voucher. Please make sure to confirm the pickup time at the initial counter. The bus usually arrives about 20 minutes before the gathering time. It was a different bus than the one I took on the way there, so please talk to the driver to confirm. They will check your passport on the way back, so make sure to take a photo of it on your smartphone! By the way, the bus on the way there also arrived early. Once the group is gathered, it departs immediately. Although it was my first time and I was a bit confused, it turned out to be a fun experience.

気をつけることを何点残しますので、ご参考までに！まずGWはまだ水に入るのにはまだ肌寒いかもしれません。持ち物にタオルがありますが、当日忘れてしまいましたが、ショップに売っていたので大丈夫でした。記念写真を撮った方は、アクティビティ終了後にブルーの建物（アシカの隣）へ、写真を受け取りに行ってください。忘れて帰ってしまう方がチラホラいるみたいです。園内に日本人のガイドさんが1人いらっしゃいます。その方がいれば色々教えて下さいます。イルカのショータイムが12時半からでしたが、昼時と重なりますが、レストランでテイクアウトにして、ショーを見ながら飲食ができます。レストランはまぁまぁお高いです。ツアーの往復送迎ありは、帰り時間がバーチャーに書いてありませんでした。最初のカウンターで必ずピックアップ時間を確認しておいてください。バスは集合時間の20分前ぐらいには到着していました。行きに乗ったバスとは違いましたので、ドライバーに話しかけて確認してください。帰りはパスポートの確認をされます。必ずスマホで写真を撮っておいてくださいね！ちなみに、行きのバスも早めに到着していました。人数が集まったら即出発します。初めてでちょっと戸惑いながらも、楽しい経験になりました。

I was looking forward to the activity.
Shortly after departure, we encountered a pod of dolphins!
I'm not a great swimmer, but I was able to enjoy snorkeling without any issues, and I also got to see a sea turtle!
The staff were all lively, and there were Japanese people among them, so I felt安心して楽しめました!
Thank you very much.

楽しみにしていたアクティビティ。
出港してまもなくイルカの群れに出会えました！
泳ぎは苦手ですがシュノーケリングも問題なく楽しめ、ウミガメを見ることもできました！
スタッフの方みんな賑やかで日本人の方もいたので安心して楽しめました！
ありがとうございました。

It was really fun. the staff were very nice and the live band was so fun! 10/10 experience! Everyone was so friendly

If you get motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is a must! I took some, but I still ended up feeling really nauseous. I think the fatigue from traveling and lack of sleep contributed to it. However, the instructor welcomed us warmly, even with the nausea, which made it a lot of fun.

乗り物酔いする方は酔い止め必須です！
酔い止めを飲みましたがそれでもゲロ酔いしました。旅の疲れと寝不足もあったと思いますが。でもインストラクターがゲロ酔いも含め明るく迎えてくれたのでとても楽しかったです。

Even with the weather turning sour was such a great experience

One of the best experience of my life! Amazing views accompanied by an amazing staff! This activity can be what you make of it! A nice family time, relaxing time, party animal time or the adventurer!

We had an amazing experience at the ranch
One couple in our group had a different time slot than
Us and they were able to get us all together !
Which was hands down the best !!
We were bummed we weren’t going to experience it together .
Our guides were super chill and Informative!!
THEE BEST TOUR GUIDES .
I believe their names were Lee and red ?
Don’t quote me on it . Lol
The cows along the way were so beautiful
The stories of the mountains were beautiful
The ride along the dirt was so fun
I definitely recommend being the driver !!
We didn’t get muddy but we definitely had dirt/dust everywhere!!!!! So maybe no makeup lol

the ranch is breathtaking, and the atv tour although super fast, does give you a great ranch tour!

was skeptical as it shares a lot with wet n wild, however don't let that fool you as this was a way to end our trip! fabulous evening, nothing bad to say!

definitely great instructors, was standing and surfing by the end! goals!

Swimming in the pool made it easy for my kids to enjoy the one thing they wanted to do in Hawaii!

My daughter had smiles on her face the whole time. Wish my other daugther was old enough!

Hanauma Bay was a really great and fun experience. It's an early activity but the water isn't too bad, as it's quite easy to warmup in the ocean. The ride to Hanauma Bay from our pick-up location was prompt and comfortable and that genuinely enhanced the experience. The driver, Orlando, was very kind and informative.

This was the best vehicle experience I've had in Hawaii!
First of all, driving the 4WD was really fun!
There were various types of terrain, and we drove on slippery surfaces and off-road paths, which is quite an experience that you can't easily have in Japan!
Moreover, the stunning nature and the lively narration by our guide Kioki (I think his American name was Johnny) made the history of Hawaii come alive, and his precise driving support truly enhanced the experience!
Having lived in America for about 10 years, I didn't have any language barriers, but if you don't understand English, you might miss out on about 30% of the fun. Still, I think it's a tour worth participating in!
Also, be prepared to get covered in mud and dust! (laughs)

今までのハワイの乗り物体験で最高でした！
まずは、四駆のDriveは本当に面白い！
色々な路面があり、スリッピーな路面や道なき道も走って、なかなか日本ではできない体験！
そして、豪快な自然となんといっても案内人のキオキ(アメリカ名ジョニーだったかな)さんの軽快な語りでハワイの歴史や的確なドライビングのサポートで本当に楽しまさせていただきました！
　私はアメリカにも10年ほど住んでいたので、言葉の面で不便はありませんが、もし　英語がわからないと楽しさは30%減かもしれませんがそれでも参加すべきツアーだと思いました！
　あと泥水や土ほこりをしっかりかぶりますので覚悟しておいてください(笑)

Great fun for the whole family! Older kids enjoy this too.

I could barely speak English, but the staff seemed used to it and communicated in broken Japanese. We participated in three groups (none of which had Japanese members), and the cheerful staff engaged with each group, making the boat ride very enjoyable! When I mentioned we were on our honeymoon, they playfully suggested we kiss while parasailing, and they told the other groups about our honeymoon, which made us happy to receive their congratulations.

During the boat ride, we were able to see the whales spouting water, making the journey even more enjoyable! This group didn't experience any seasickness, but there were instructions to vomit outside the boat if needed, which was amusing. Parasailing offered a stunning view of all of Hawaii, and both my husband and I were thrilled! It was fine to wear sunglasses while bringing a GoPro. We went up to 120 meters, but I wonder how different it would have been at 150 meters, which leaves me a bit regretful.

We were dropped into the water just enough to not submerge our faces, and the excitement from the calls of "Kiss!" from below added to the fun, creating a level of energy that was unlike anything in Japan for our honeymoon! There are photos capturing the moment we took off, so some of them clearly show our faces! I initially planned not to buy any photos, but I would regret it if I didn't! We really enjoyed our honeymoon! Thank you! ♡

ほぼ英語喋れませんでしたが、向こうも慣れてるのか指示出しはカタコトの日本語でした。
3グループ(日本人なし)で参加して、それぞれのグループに陽気にスタッフさんが話しかけて、船の時間もとても楽しかったです！
ハネムーンできてることを伝えるとパラセーリング中キスしなよ！と陽気にいじってきたり、他のグループにもハネムーンできてるんだよ！と伝え皆さんにおめでとうといってもらえて嬉しかったです
船の移動中にはクジラの潮吹きをみれて、船の旅も楽しめます！今回のグループは船酔いみなさん一切しませんでしたが、酔った場合は船の外に吐いてねと指示も予めありました笑
パラセーリングはハワイ全貌が見えて、夫婦ともに大興奮でした！GoProの持ち込みサングラスを掛けたままでも問題なかったです。120mでしたが、150mだとどれほど違かったのか少し心残りです。
顔がつかない程度に海に落とされたり、下からキース！コールで盛り上がられたりハネムーンとしては日本でないぐらいのテンション感を味わえたのがとても楽しかったです！笑
写真も飛び立つ瞬間とか含まれてるので顔がよく分かるものもあります！写真をはじめ買わない想定でしたが、買わないと後悔します！笑
ハネムーンを楽しめました！ありがとうございます♡

Our experience aboard the Three Tiki Catamaran was nothing short of magical! From the moment we stepped on board, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality by the incredibly kind staff. I was nervous having a toddler but everyone assured us our son was welcomed. They even had a place store our stroller.

One of the first things that struck us was how immaculately clean the boat was. It was evident that cleanliness and hygiene were top priorities for the crew.

The ride itself was an absolute blast! Having never been on a catamaran, it did not disappoint! As we cruised along, we were treated to breathtaking views of the sunset casting its warm hues over the Honolulu skyline, with the iconic silhouette of Diamond Head in the background. We even got to anchor and jump into the ocean.

What truly made the experience unforgettable was how family-friendly it was. The crew went above and beyond to ensure my little one was comfortable even though he was crying. They were so incredibly nice!

Overall, our time aboard the Three Tiki Catamaran was an absolute delight. We can't recommend it enough for families looking to create unforgettable memories in the stunning backdrop of Honolulu. Thank you to the wonderful staff for making our experience so memorable!

I had a amazing time!! Definitely recommend it to the employees of the condo we were staying at for future recommendations it was great learning about the culture

Overall, beautiful and the service made our life so much easier. We would recommend these guys again.

With the bay...
Fish weren't as plentiful as the pictures...by a long shot.

Perhaps planning on being there at high tide would help with making the space easier to snorkel.

Interesting process getting into the bay.

Great friendly service from the crew we booked with helping us manage these processes at the bay.

Food and drink options there are slim and no where to sit and eat them as you wait for transport back.

Absolutely fantastic show. Food was great! The chief was verrrrrrrrry entertaining! All around great time :)

The tour guide on the drive out was great, very friendly. Gear worked well and was clean. We got chairs and an umbrella which was really nice since we were there a while. I didn’t love the actual bay, however. The snorkeling was only okay and we didn’t see nearly as many types of fish as I would have expected for a place boosting great snorkeling. I have been to better. The reef was also super shallow so hard to navigate around the sections safely without touching the coral. It also was very sandy so the view wasn’t clear. Overall I would not pick this activity again just since the snorkeling wasn’t great. However, the driver and equipment was great so I didn’t want to knock their rating down just because the experience wasn’t amazing.

I had experienced zip-lining in Japan, but in Hawaii, there were multiple courses available. I think I spent about two hours experiencing everything. My satisfaction level was quite high. The accompanying staff were locals who engaged with us to ensure we had a good time. I struggled with English and couldn't speak well, but the female guide was always smiling and made it enjoyable. On the longer lines, you glide through the air for about 30 seconds, and the views are amazing. I definitely think it's something everyone should try at least once.

日本でもジップラインを経験していましたが、ハワイのものはいくつものコースが用意されていました。2時間ぐらいかけてすべてを体験したと思います。
満足度はかなり高かったです。
付き添いスタッフは現地の人でしたが、楽しく過ごせるように話しかけてくれました。
英語が苦手でうまく話せなかったのですが、ガイドの女性はいつもニコニコ楽しませくれましたよ。
長いものであれば30秒ぐらい空中を滑走するような状況になり、景色も最高で是非一度は経験したほうがいいと思います。

We booked a family snorkeling with turtles experience on the Moana Catamaran, and the crew ensured that we had an exceptional experience. Anthony, the captain, was personable and informative. He was happy to answer a LOT of questions, and provided insight into Hawaiian culture throughout the experience. When it came time to enter the water, Claire was an outstanding guide. She ensured that the kids (10 & 12) felt confident with the unfamiliar snorkeling equipment, and took the time to locate and identify a variety of sea life. The crew made this a memorable experience for our entire family, and we highly recommend this experience for visitors to Oahu.

Being able to drive up into the mountains and learn so much about the history of the mountains and the area was amazing. The added bonus of seeing different movie sites and learning about movies and shows being filmed in that area was cool too.
I was surprised that we did not stop at all of the sites with movie props. Especially the ones specific to Jurassic park so that was a bit of a disappointment but otherwise it was a great excursion.

My husband and I did the half-day tour which included; the movie set tour on Kualoa Ranch and the boat ride. I thought we were actually going to stay at secret Beach for a little bit, but we did not. The movie tour was made, especially memorable by our awesome tour guide. She was hilarious and made the whole experience that much better. It’s an absolutely beautiful place and we enjoyed learning about the working ranch, and the Hawaiian culture. The buffet lunch in between both tours was also very enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour.

Just kind of boring. Better suited for families with little kids. Food was gross. No booze to order. There’s nowhere to shower or change afterwards either.

This was such a a fun time! The crew and musicians are what made it so good. They all exude the aloha spirit. The live music was such a a treat, they had really good rapport with our group and were so fun, and talented too. The crew was so wonderful and so nice.
The bay itself is a treasure, so so beautiful. The water is gorgeous, the mountains are stunning. They provide paddle boards, kayaks, snorkel gear, and volleyballs.
And the crew is very helpful with all of the gear and how to.use.it. I would recommend it!

The blue sea and blue sky. I was healed by the wonderful scenery. It was great to walk in the water and enjoy feeding the many fish. The live music on the boat was also fantastic. It became a very nice memory.

青い海、青い空。素晴らしい景色に癒されました。海の中を歩いて楽しんだり、沢山のお魚に餌を揚げて楽しんだりいろいろ遊べて良かったです。船の中での生演奏の歌も素晴らしかったです。とてもいい思い出になりました。

enjoy this tour. I got a chance to try all the activities. All the crews are enthusiastic and nice, supportive. Life guards paid attention to our safety all the time.

excellent time with fish and turtles.
crew was also excellent :)
