All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

I participated with my husband on April 26, just before Golden Week, during the Japanese guide's time. Based on the comments from other participants, I properly took anti-seasickness medication... The boat ride to the submersible was quite rocky. There were also some splashes of water... But I forgot all that in the underwater world. Fortunately, we encountered sea turtles three times. The artificial coral reef was home to many different types of fish, and the American (?) Japanese guide was enjoyable as well.

ゴールデンウィーク前の4月26日に日本語ガイドの時間に主人と参加しました。他の参加者のコメントを参考にきちんと酔止めを服用……潜水艇へ行く迄の船で結構揺れました。水しぶきも少々……そんなことも忘れてしまうくらいの海底の世界。ラッキーなことに海がめに3回出会いました。人工のサンゴ礁には沢山の種類のお魚達に、アメリカ人(?)の日本語ガイドも楽しかったです。

The earphones came with a Japanese guide, so I had no trouble at all!

The staff were very kind, pointing things out to me, and the boat went around to the other side so I could see everything again, so I didn't miss anything!

The submarine was good, but there were places where the headphones were available and places where they weren't, so I couldn't hear the Japanese translation. The season might have been bad as well, but there were far fewer fish than I imagined. The windows were dirtier than I expected, and even when I took photos, they lacked clarity.

It was exciting walking through a rain forest and also a good cardio workout. Our group had walking sticks so it was beneficial where it was a bit rocky or wet. Just take your time going up or back down and enjoy the scenery.

The only participant in the tour was Japanese, and since everything from the explanation to the end was in English, they tried very hard to explain things, but I couldn't fully understand until the end.

ツアー参加者で日本人が我家のみで、説明から終了までが全て英語だった為に
一生懸命説明などをしてくれていたのですが、最後まで良く理解出来ずに終了してしまいました。

I joined the tour because it was advertised as a Japanese-language tour, but the guide's Japanese was quite poor.

Also, depending on your seat, you might not be able to see the fish. It seems that the other side had colorful fish, but on the side I was sitting, I could only see a few horse mackerel and black fish.

Additionally, it was a plan that promised a diving certificate, but I ended up receiving nothing, and the treatment was the same as the regular plan.

I felt quite disappointed given my expectations, so I won't be participating again.

10時は日本語のツアーと書いてあったので参加しましたが、ガイドの日本語がかなり酷いです。

また、席側によって魚が見れない場合があります。
反対側はカラフルな魚がみれていたみたいですが、私が座った側はアジや黒い魚がちょこっと見れただけでした。

また、潜水証明書が貰えるプランでしたが何も貰う事なく終わり、扱いも通常のプランと同じでした。

期待していた分かなり残念な気持ちになったので、もう参加する事は無いです。

We had a nice time on this cruise. Great way to see fireworks

I was thrilled to explore the mysterious underwater world with my son! I was also happy to see turtles swimming leisurely.

The boat heading to the submarine had to navigate some rough waves, and there were a few people who felt unwell. It was unfortunate to see someone unable to enjoy the submarine experience because they were bent over the whole time.

I recommend that anyone who is prone to motion sickness take some medication before participating.

神秘的な海底の世界に、息子と共に大興奮！のんびりと泳ぐカメも見ることが出来て嬉しかったです(^^)/
沖の潜水艦に向かう船がかなりの荒波を越えて進むので、気分が悪くなっている方がいました。（せっかくの潜水艦の中でもずっと突っ伏したままでお気の毒でした。。）
乗り物酔いの心配がある方は酔い止めを飲んでから参加されるのをおススメします。

The meeting point was within walking distance from the hotel where we were staying, making it easy to get to. Since it finished in half a day, we were able to make good use of the afternoon as well.

集合場所も宿泊していたホテルから徒歩圏内で行きやすかったです。
半日で終わるので午後からの時間も有効利用できてよかったです。

It was awesome! The crew was fantastic. I would highly recommend this cruise to anyone and everyone!

I experienced this with my family of four. We dove to a depth of about 30 meters, and it felt like a different world down there. I was amazed at how the fish moved... The cruise to the submarine, which took about 10 minutes, was also pleasant. However, those who are prone to seasickness should be cautious. On the day we went, there were some waves, so our family took motion sickness medication in advance to prepare.

私は、家族4人で体験しました。水深30m程まで潜水しますが、そこはもう別世界。魚は、こんな動きをしていたのかと感心…潜水艦まで10分程のクルーズも気持ち良かったです。ただ、船酔いに弱い方は、要注意。当日私達家族は、少し波立っていたので事前に酔い止め飲んで準備しました。

It was good, The kids loved it. There wasn't very many fish or things to look at.

We loved everything. I am the biggest water and animal lover. The submarine was a great experience for us. Even though the reefs are all gone and they had boats, plans, and different materials placed as artificial reefs it just shows you how important our reefs are for sea life. It is a great learning experience to see the difference. How life is under water now after the way man has destroyed it and the ones who care enough to try to recover a small percent of what it would be if it had been left alone before people destroyed an environment for there own selfish reasons. Before booking I did read reviews of others who experienced the submarine tour before I decided to reserve our tour. Even though a lot of people stated they expected more and only gave it 1 and 2 stars I still decided to take the tour. I read Atlantis used partial of the proceeds to rebuild the reefs. If more people got together and helped rebuild what we all have destroyed then maybe there will be more fish and more variety everytime we come back. People should respect the homes of others, where animals live, and give to it instead of always taking. It was a great experience, it taught us to respect the beautiful nature in our world, to help rebuild, and stop destroying before there is nothing left to experience.

Excellent experience because it was my first time going there n I totally loved it I'm definitely going back...

It was my first time riding a submarine, and I had a lot of fun. The location was close to where I was staying, so I walked there. The staff were very kind to me, even though I arrived early and couldn't speak English. I'm grateful for that. It was probably just a coincidence, but when I participated, about 60% of the participants were Japanese. A person who could speak Japanese guided us, so I didn't need an audio guide in Japanese. I was able to see sea turtles, and it was a very enjoyable experience.

潜水艦に乗るの初めてなので楽しかったです。
場所が滞在場所から近かったので歩いて現地に行きました。
早めに来てしまった英語のできない自分に対してもスタッフさんはとても親切にしていただきました。感謝します。
たまたまでしょうが自分が参加した時は参加者の6割が日本人でした。
日本語ができる方がガイドしてくださり、日本語の音声ガイドが必要ありませんでした。
ウミガメの見ることができたし、とても楽しい経験ができました。

This was a tour that my parents had always wanted to go on. The underwater world was like a different realm, and it became a wonderful memory. The shuttle bus for pickup was also on time and easy to understand, which was great.

ずっと両親が行きたいと思っていたツアーです
海の中は別世界で、とても良い思い出になりました。
お迎えのシャトルバスっも時間通りでしたし、わかりやすくて
良かったです。

From the pier in front of the Hilton Hawaiian Village Hotel, you can take a boat to board a submarine that is anchored offshore, where you can observe the wreckage of ships and airplanes sunk off Waikiki, as well as the fish and turtles that inhabit them.
There are limited resorts that offer submarine activities, and getting a glimpse of the mysteries of the ocean floor is a rare experience.
Additionally, there is a Japanese audio guide available, so you can enjoy it even if you don't speak English.

Hilton Hawaiian Village Hotel前の桟橋から船で移動し、沖合に停泊している潜水艦に乗り込み、ワイキキ沖に沈む船や飛行機の残骸と、それらに住んでいる魚やカメを観察することができます。
潜水艦のアクティビティがあるリゾート地は限られますし、海底の神秘を垣間見ることができるのはなかなかできない体験です。
また、日本語の音声ガイドがありますので、英語が出来なくても楽しめます。

You will wait for the shuttle bus at the Hyatt Regency, which will make about three stops along the way before arriving. The submarine does not have a restroom, but there is a restroom on the moving boat, so you can feel at ease. Under the sea, you will visit several points. The view differs depending on whether you are sitting on the left or right, but when there are sea turtles, they will rotate so that both seats can see them.

ハイアットリージェンシーでシャトルバスを待ち、途中3か所位途中停車してから到着します。
サブマリンにはトイレがありませんが、移動中の船にトイレがあるので安心です。
海底では、いくつかポイントを周遊します。左右の席で見えるモノが違いますが、海ガメがいた際は回転してどちらの席でも見えるようにしてくれました。

It was an experience that is hard to come by in Japan, so I participated. I was really lucky to see a sea turtle! The cruise before boarding the submarine was also very pleasant.

日本ではなかなか出来ない体験でしたので、参加しました。
ウミガメを見ることが出来て、本当にラッキーでした！
潜水艦に乗り込むまでのクルーズも気持ちよかったです。

It was amazing and the crew was awesome very friendly!!! Seen dolphins and a whale and it was just beautiful we will do more with this tour

As the title suggests, the beauty of the scenery and the number of marine creatures visible greatly differ depending on where you sit. Inside the submarine, the seating is divided into the right and left rows, and this time, the left row was overwhelmingly better (we were in the right row). However, for us ordinary people who rarely have the chance to explore the ocean, it is undoubtedly a valuable experience. I believe this is one event you should definitely participate in when you come to Hawaii.

タイトルの通り、座る席で景色の美しさや見られる海洋生物の数が大きく異なる。潜水艦の中は右列と左列で分かれており、今回の潜水は圧倒的に左列が良かった（※自分達は右列でした）。ただし、なかなか海の中を冒険する機会がない我々一般人にとっては、貴重な体験となることは間違いない。
是非、ハワイに来た際は参加すべきイベントの１つだと思います。

Great time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was a bit raining in the morning but the Monoa Falls was very very nice.
Our guide explained us very kind and neatly so we understood well.
You must need a shoe to go with.( Some people went there by Beach sandals and slipping over the mud)

The crew on this trip were excellent! We had the whole boat to ourselves. The captain of the boat went out of his way to show us everything we wanted to see. We saw turtles and also saw some dolphins
In the distance. The Crew were very knowledgable and made the experience very worthwhile! The captain knew a lot about the history of the island and talked us through it, throughout the ride. I would recommend this and will recommend this.
The boat ride was excellent! We really enjoyed the trip and this topped it off!
When we saw the dolphins the driver tried to get as close as possible to them before they swam off. The glass bottom allowed is
To see the Bottom of the ocean which was remarkable. The crew were very helpful and made the experience much better!
They pointed out turtles and dolphins, they explained the usual patterns and they gave us advice on what to see around the island and the best spots to visit.

I don't think there are many opportunities to ride on a submarine. The interior was surprisingly spacious, and from a large round window shared by two people, we could see cute fish. We were also able to see two turtles, which are said to bring happiness if spotted. It was a valuable experience.

潜水艦に乗れる機会なんて、なかなかないと思います。
艦内は意外と広く2人で1枚の大きな丸い窓から可愛いお魚や沈没させて魚の棲家にしているようですが、見られると幸せが訪れると言われるカメを2匹も見ることが出来ました。貴重な体験でした。

It was beautiful underwater although I expected that we would see more coral reefs and fish. It was great to see the wreckages but I was underwhelmed by it all. I am a SCUBA diver and was expecting a bit more.

My friends and I had a wonderful time at the Spirit of Aloha!
The departing location is very convenient and we could just walk from our our hotel. The check-in was fast and after we boarded the Captain gave us a safety briefing and we started the sail.
The appetizers were good, they have a small buffet line with wings, meatballs and dried snacks. The bar has a selection of draft beer, champagne and cocktails and the prices are very reasonable. Watching the sunset in Hawaii listening to good music, cocktails and friends was the highlight of trip. The views from Waikiki are amazing and at this time of the year, after the sunset we still got to sail under the starts and it was very relaxing. Make sure to include this cruise on your next trip to Hawaii!

We were picked up on time by a friendly driver who explained everything we needed to know regarding our hike. He was right on with his explanation. We walked along with several others up the trails which we easy then got to some of the curves and switchbacks where the footing was a little difficult. Be sure to wear good tennis shoes or hiking boots not sandals or heels for this hike. We came to a series of steps that were steep then into a tunnel that was a few minutes long. Outside the tunnel there were 2 routes to the top. One set of steps much steeper than the other but can stop and rest along the way if needed. Once on the top the views were spectacular and well worth the climb. I'm 65 years old and have 3 stents in my hear and made this "moderate " hike with only a few stops. There are some rough areas in this hike so people with walkers, wheel chairs and buggies will not make it. We will definitely do this event next time we're in Hawaii. We did the hike up to the top, looked around for 15-20 minutes and hiked back down in 1 - 1/2 hours.

The dolphin tour we initially planned was suddenly canceled three days before departure, so I quickly searched online and found this tour. There were similar sailing options, but since we were staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village, we decided on this tour. I felt reassured that VELTRA confirmed the reservation at the time of booking.

On the day of the tour, it rained in the morning... I thought it might get canceled, but by the afternoon, the rain cleared, and we departed from the beach as scheduled! Once we were out at sea, we set the sails and let the wind and waves guide us... At this point, the refreshing feeling was indescribable! The view from the sea of Waikiki and Diamond Head was also amazing. There was only one other family besides us participating, so we were able to take our time taking photos and videos on board. The taste of beer on the water was the best.

The captain and staff were very friendly, and they provided explanations in Japanese on board.

We thoroughly enjoyed the one-hour sailing. We didn't see any dolphins, but we were very satisfied. (o^－^o)

当初予定していたドルフィンツアーが出発3日前に突然の中止になり 急遽ネット検索し、このツアーにたどり着きました。同じ様なセーリングもあったのですが ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジに宿泊していたのでこのツアーに決めました。VELTRAは申し込と同時に予約確定か否かが分かるので安心しました。

当日は朝から雨･･これはcancelになるかと思いきや午後には雨も上り予定通りビーチから出発❗沖に出ると帆を張り風任せ 波任せ･･ここまでくると何とも言えない爽快感ﾃﾞｽ❗海から見るワイキキからダイヤモンドヘッド迄の景色も素晴らしかった。参加者は私達の他にファミリーが1組のみ･･船上ではゆったり写真や動画を撮る事が出来ました。海上でのビールの味も最高
キャプテンを始めstaffはとてもフレンドリー 船上では 日本語で説明してくれます。

1時間のセーリングを満喫しました。イルカは見られなかったけど大満足しました。(o^－^o)

This was a great experience, the crew was amazing and very knowledgeable!
