All Reviews for Kid Adventures (Ages 8-12)

My husband and i had an amazing experience. Our group guides (Zeke, Ellie, Emma) are the best, very supportive and encouraging and fun. Going through the whole course was a challenge to conquer our different levels of fear and strength. I am especially proud of my husband who had been very hesitant to do the activity but finished it with flying colors more than me..ha ha... If given the chance to come back, we will definitely do it again. Again, thank you so much to our guides who kept us safe and secured the whole time. Fun fun fun .....

This tour was an absolute blast. Luckily, my girlfriend and I came to Hawaii the week after the state opened up following the Covid-19 restrictions, so there weren't many people on the island. Likewise, the tour only ended up being the two of us. Our tour guide (and owner of the tour company), Steve, was amazing. He led us through the waters and taught us both how to kayak. He even went out of his way and taught us how to paddleboard too! Also, he was very knowledgeable about Hawaii and the surrounding waters. Steve provided us with a lot of advice on what we should do/stay/eat during our stay. And to make it even better, we saw plenty of sea turtles and coral beneath our glass bottom kayak! On top of all this, Steve stayed with us a little while longer on the water to answer our questions and to talk more about Hawaii. All in all, the tour went above and beyond our expectations. The next time we go back to Hawaii, we will definitely book another tour with this company!

First time horseback riding and I can honestly say we had a wonderful experience. They made sure to have a safety demo in the beginning prior to jumping on to be sure everyone was safe and comfortable enough to ride. Nice peaceful scenery and the breeze off of the ocean made the horseback riding extremely relaxing. Towards the end of the tour, we also stopped to take some pics on the beach with the horses!! Our tour guide Becca was the BEST! Definitely will go back and make sure to request her as our tour guide again.

Ten of us participated, ranging from my 5-year-old grandchild to 60 years old.

In Japan, where safety is a top priority, my 5-year-old grandchild was probably not allowed to ride a horse alone, but here, they were able to ride by themselves and were very satisfied!

We enjoyed horseback riding at our own levels, just relaxing as a family on the ranch.

Of course, communication was a challenge since Japanese was not spoken, but it was a refreshing experience for the grandchildren, which was great.

5歳の孫から60歳までの10人で参加しました

安全第一の日本ではまず乗馬させてもらえないであろう
5歳の孫も1人で馬に乗り大満足！

のんびり家族だけで牧場内をそれぞれのレベルで
乗馬を楽しむ事が出来ました

ただ、当然ですが日本語は通じませんでしたが
孫たちにとっては新鮮な体験でよっかたです

I had never experienced seasickness before, but I ended up going home without doing anything due to it. While the waves in Japan might not start, in Hawaii, they usually do. Please be careful. The round-trip taxi fare and the shark adventure cost about $380. I went, got seasick, couldn't see any sharks, and came back, feeling like I just threw away $380. Since you won't get your money back, everyone, please be very careful about the weather. Also, if you can't understand English listening to some extent, you won't know what the staff on the boat are saying.

船酔いした事なかったですが、船酔いして何もしないまま帰りました。
日本では開始しないような波でもハワイは普通に開始します。気おつけてください。往復のタクシー代とシャークアドベンチャー代で380ドルぐらいかかりました。
行って、船酔いして、サメも見れず、帰って、380ドルを捨てたようなものでした。
お金も返って来ないので、みなさん、天候には充分に気をつけてください。
あと、ある程度英語のリスニングが出来ないと、船のアテンドの人が何言ってるかわかりません。

This glass bottom kayak tour was an amazing experience. Our guide, JC was friendly, knowledgeable and went out of his way to make our experience a unique one! I would highly recommend taking a tour with these folks- you will not regret it!

During my previous horseback riding experience in Australia, I was able to feel the horses' light gallops, but this time it was only a slow walk, which was a bit disappointing. However, riding while looking at the ocean was pleasant with the nice breeze.

以前オーストラリアで乗馬した際は、
馬の軽めのダッシュ等も体感できましたが今回のものではパカラパカラ程度の馬の徒歩しかなくものたりませんでした。
しかし海を見ながらの乗馬は風が気持ち良かったです。

At Kualoa, you can also do ziplining, and I was torn between options, but I decided to book this one because it has a longer distance.

There were a total of seven zip lines, and there were various activities in between, which made it a lot of fun.

None of the instructors spoke Japanese, but I still had a great time.

If you have the financial means, I think bringing a GoPro or something similar would allow you to capture plenty of memorable photos.

クアロアでもジップラインができるので、悩みましたが、こちらの方が距離が長いので、こっちを予約しました。


合計７本のジップラインでしたが、途中にいろいろなアクティビティも挟んであり、とても楽しかったです。


インストラクターは誰も日本語を話せなかったのですが、十分楽しめました。

金銭的に余裕のある方は、GO PROなど持っていかれた方が思い出の写真をいっぱい残せるかと思います。

It was the most fun activity I've experienced in Hawaii so far! (Personally) There was one staff member who spoke Japanese and was very friendly. The rest of the staff primarily spoke English, and all explanations were in English, but they communicated well with gestures, so it was not a problem at all! There were lockers and transportation available, which was great! There is a set pickup time, but there was a slight delay (typical overseas timing), but they do come to pick you up, so it's all good! If you're worried, it might be a good idea to call.

今までハワイで経験したアクティビティの中で一番楽しかったです！（個人的に）
日本語を話してくれるスタッフさんは1人いてくれてとてもフレンドリーな方でした^_^それ以外の方は基本英語だけで、説明等も全て英語ですがジェスチャー等で教えてくれたりと全く問題ないです！ロッカーや送迎もあり良かったです！お迎え時間は設定されていますが多少遅れもありました（海外タイムですね）けどちゃんと迎えに来てくれるので大丈夫です！心配だったら電話すると良いかもです^_^

When I inquired during the application process, I was told there would be no Japanese staff on-site, which made me anxious. However, there were Japanese versions of the consent forms available. The driver for the transfer was kind, and although the local staff explained things in English, I managed to get by (laughs). I thought I could just mimic the other participants for how to ride, and I ended up skiing last every time. It became a wonderful memory.

申し込み時に聞いた際、現地には日本語スタッフがいない。。との事で　不安でしたが、同意書等は日本語版の用意がありました。送迎のドライバーさんも優しい方でしたし、現地スタッフの説明は英語でしたが、なんとかなりました(笑)乗り方等は他の参加者の真似をすれば良いと思い、毎回最後に滑りました。良い思い出になりました。

We visited with four adults, all over 20 years old. Although it was a morning course, horseback riding while overlooking the beautiful coastline of North Shore was absolutely fantastic. Our group consisted only of our family of four, but there were two support staff members, and it was no problem even for those who were mostly beginners. The riding time and course distance were just right, without any excess or deficiency. However, the restrooms are basic, so it's advisable to take care of that beforehand.

家族4人といっても全員20歳以上の大人4人で訪れました。午前中のコースでしたが、ノースショワの美しい海岸を眺めながらの乗馬は最高に良かったです。私達の回は私達の家族4人だけでしたが、2人のサポートの方が入っており、ほぼ全員初心者でも問題無かったです。乗馬時間やコースの距離も過不足なく丁度良い感じでした。ただ、トイレ等は簡易式のものなので事前に済ませておいた方が無難です。

What an experience! This tour is definitely worth it. The boat only takes out a max of 6 people which allows for more cage time and less crowds. The cage was plenty big for everyone to see and not feel cramped. We had sharks around us the entire time we were in the water and the water was so clear it was quite the experience. The crew was awesome and very knowledgeable about not only sharks but whales as well. We were able to stop on our way back into harbor and watch the whales for a little bit. Overall such a great experience, highly recommend!

Uncle Kevin was truely an amazing bus driver/tour guide! Made the day feel as though you were a local :). Amazing commentary and local facts. A whole range of activities to choose from and by far was the best taking a surf lesson on the north shore!

Sarah was a great guide. Patient with us and friendly!! Scenery is spectacular. Highly recommend.

I was excited to go on this event. My excitement was well rewarded. On the way out we got a bonus of seeing a whole group of humpback whales breaching high in the air!!! At this point I felt my money was already a good investment!
The sharks did not disappoint either!! At least 20 of them circled our boat and cage while we got great views! Captain Caleo is a super guy and excellent at steering this tour perfectly
I would recommend this tour to all my friends!
Oh and we saw dolphins on the way back!!

Has the time of my life, it was a once in a lifetime experience. If I ever had the chance to do it again I wouldn’t hesitate. Guides were great and the shark experience even better. Oh yeah and we saw whales!

One of my biggest fears is a shark. The idea of this excursion terrified me but When in Rome, right? Hawaii is the perfect place to face your fears and do something you’d never normally do. The guys on the boat helped ease my fears and made the experience so incredible. I would recommend this excursion to anyone. We saw 6 sharks at one time and being that close to a shark was one of the coolest things I’ve ever done. We spent about 40 min in the water and it was the perfect amount of time. The fact that only a small number of people can go on the excursion means more time in the water. This is a must do on the North Shore! Bring your GoPro!

This shark cage tour was awesome. Started off the morning with a nice north shore cruise to the cage drop spot. The crew is very laid back and give you all the information you need along the way. Very friendly and knowledgeable and answered all and any questions we had. Spent a good chunk of time in the cage and saw a few different sharks able to collect some pretty sweet GoPro footage. Even saw some whales along the way and you are able to hear them singing underwater which is pretty cool. The boat is spacious and comfortable and they provide bottled water. They also have a fresh water hose so you can rinse off when you are done in the cage. This tour was 100% safe and professionally ran. I would recommend it for anyone looking to have a good time for a few hours on the island.

I also requested hotel transportation. It's an orange van with a large picture of a person zip-lining on it for reference. The driver shared a lot about Hawaii's history during the ride and was very friendly. Although it was in English (laughs), most of the staff didn't speak much Japanese, but gestures were enough to communicate.

The zip-lining was truly amazing! I was a bit nervous at first, but I got used to it quickly! It felt great—seeing nature, the ocean, and the sky in such a vast area was the best! Since it requires physical effort, there were several snack points along the way, with fresh macadamia nuts that you crack open with a stone, freshly picked cherry tomatoes, and small apple bananas! Everyone found them incredibly delicious! Please look forward to that!

ホテル送迎も頼みました。

それも楽しみにしていてください♪♪

This tour is one that you won’t forget! During our shark tour, we had 6 sharks around us for most of our time in the water. The cage allows you to get a close view of the sharks while still viewing safe being in the water. You get a beautiful view of the deep blue water that is unlike anything else. The staff was great, informing us of sharks that are often seen as well as educating us on the sharks we were seeing. The staff also gave fun facts about the island during the boat ride. I could not say enough great things about this tour!

We went with a plan to meet and disperse at the location.
There is only a restroom for changing, so I recommend wearing your clothes there!
There are lockers for valuables, but they are small, and you need to keep the key with you, so having a zippered garment or a small crossbody bag would be convenient!
There was no one who spoke Japanese, so everything was in English.
If you don't understand English, you won't know the explanations of the place or how to proceed next, so it's best to observe what others do.
The fun you can experience there is something you can't find in Japan, and it's the best!

現地集合、現地解散のプランで行きました。
着替えスペースはトイレしかなく、服は着ていくことをおすすめします！
貴重品のロッカーはありますが、小さいのとその鍵は自分でなくさないように持っていくので、ジッパー付き服か、小さい斜めかけかばんあれば便利です！
日本語話せるひといないので、全部英語でした。
英語がわからんとそこの場所の説明とか次はこんな感じでいったらいーよーがわからないので、行った人の見て行ったらよいです。
日本では味わえない楽しさが最高です！！

I took a leisurely walk along the beach and through the fields for about an hour and a half. The weather was nice, and the staff took a lot of photos, making it a wonderful memory.

1時間半ほどゆっくり海岸や野原を歩きました。天気も良くてスタッフの方も写真をたくさん撮ってくれてとても良い思い出になりました。

Our group consisted of a couple (with zipline experience), an elderly couple, a family of four, a solo traveler, two friends of mine, and the instructor, starting at 10 AM. (Everyone except us was foreign; from their perspective, we were the only Asians.) We began with a short zipline to warm up and then gradually tried longer lines and even went backward.

The elderly couple (around 70 years old?) and the children tried without hesitation. The most challenging part was climbing up to the zipline location (like a climbing pole), which was really tough, but the instructor helped us reach the top. There were places along the way to enjoy macadamia nuts, cherry tomatoes, and mini bananas, as well as hydration stations.

I usually use an iPad mini, so it was too large for me to carry, but the foreigners were taking pictures of the scenery and themselves with their smartphones. I would like to participate again and have a photo taken with my arms and legs spread out. Finally, we were able to purchase photos for $45 plus tax.

私たちのグループはご夫婦（ジップライン経験あり）、老夫婦、ファミリー4人、お1人様、私たち友達2人とインストラクターのグループで10時からでした。（私たち以外は全員外人さん→向こうからみればアジア人が私たちだけ）最初に短いジップラインで肩慣らし？してどんどん長かったり後ろ向きにトライしたりとしていきました。
老夫婦（70歳位？）と子供の躊躇なくトライしていっていました。
一番大変だったのはジップラインの場所までロープをあがっていくのがあり（登り棒風に）それが本当に大変でしたが、インストラクターが助けてくれて登り切りました。途中にマカダミアナッツ、ミニトマト、ミニバナナが食べれるところと水分補給は各所にありました。
私は通常はiPadminiと使用しているので大きすぎて持ち歩けなかったですが
外人さんたちはスマホで景色やら自分たちを撮ってました。
また参加して今度は手と足を広げて写真撮ってもらいたいです。
最後に45＄プラス税金で写真も購入できました。

I have to admit, even though I knew I would be swimming safely in a cage, I was still a little nervous. But the crew did a good job of putting my mind at ease. These guys really know their stuff! They've been swimming with sharks and surfing in Hawaii their whole lives. They are like walking encyclopedias!

The tour was fun from start to finish. We got to see whales on the way to and from the dive site (and we could hear them when we were in the water!), we saw the Lost beach where the TV show was filmed, and the view of the North Shore coastline was breathtaking.

Last but not least, the sharks. There were at least five in sight when I got in the cage. It was a dream come true getting to be so close to them and watch them swim around us. And the best part is that this tour only takes out a maximum of 6 people so we got to stay in the cage the whole time!

The staff are all locals, but they first showed us a Japanese video, so it was okay even if you’re not good at English! The horses are very smart and respond well to simple signals. We were able to enjoy a leisurely horseback ride on a beautiful, pleasant beach! Since it’s a bit of a long time, it might be good to bring a drink. They do sell some drinks locally, so if you ask the staff, you can buy them, but they might not have change, so you may need some small bills.

スタッフは現地の方ばかりなのですが
初めに日本語ビデオを見せて頂くので英語が苦手でも大丈夫でした！
お馬さんはとてもお利口さんで 簡単な合図でちゃんと言う事を聞いてくれ
とても気持ちよくキレイなビーチをのんびり乗馬できました！
少し長い時間なので飲み物を持って行くと良いかもしれません。
現地のにも少しですが売っているのでスタッフに声をかければ売って貰えますが
お釣りが無さそうなので細かいお金が必要かもです。

This has been on my bucket list for quite some time and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! The crew is so nice and made everyone feel so comfortable and were very knowledgeable. They only take up to 6 people so you never even have to get out of the cage until the tour is over if you don't want to! We were in there for about 45 minutes getting to see several sharks and it turned out to be a really calming, cool experience. I would definitely recommend these guys, I was sold when I found out that it was a small group and that we would have a lot more time in the cage.

On the first day we arrived, we participated right away and had fun with the kids. We did all seven activities, but by the end, we were quite tired. The instructors were kind and taught us well, so my 9-year-old son was very satisfied and enjoyed himself.

着いた初日にいきなり参加しましたが子供たちと楽しめました。7本すべてをしましたが最後の方は結構疲れました。インストラクターの方たちが優しく教えてくれましたので9歳の息子も十分満足して楽しみました。

It was great. Very informative and professional tour guide. They were filming the movie Jumanji while we were at the falls.

My family and I enjoyed it very much! The view from the top was amazing and tour guide was very entertaining. They made us laugh the whole time. I'd love to go back.

There was a Japanese explanation video, and I was able to ride without any anxiety because I understood the precautions and how to operate. It was enjoyable.

日本語の説明ビデオがあって、注意事項と操作方法がわかった上で騎乗できたので、不安も無く楽しかったです。
