All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

I signed up for this tour because my mother said she didn't want to wear a swimsuit. I had thought I would see beautiful fish the whole time while diving, so I was disappointed that I could only see them at certain points. The colors were also dull. My family was happy, but I felt disappointed. I rated it as average, balancing my family's satisfaction with my dissatisfaction. There may not be anyone who wants to participate based on my experience, but for those who don't understand English or families with small children, I recommend joining the tour with a Japanese guide.

母が水着を着たくないと言っていたので、水着を着なくていいこのツアーに申し込みました。
潜っている間中、ずっと綺麗な魚が見られると思っていたので、ポイントごとにしか見られなくて残念でした。色も地味でした。家族は喜んでいましたが、私は残念に思いました。
評価は家族の満足と私の不満を平均して普通にしました。
私の体験談で参加したいと思われる方はいらっしゃらないかもしれませんが、英語がわからない方、小さいお子様がいるご家族の方は日本語ガイドの会の乗船をお勧めいたします。

We had a wonderful quick trip on the water with a crew that became fast friends. The skipper had all the right jokes and jabs to make you feel like you had sailed with him many times before. And the rest of the crew were as friendly as you could wish for. A cocktail cruise fit my bill perfectly. So tip big these guys deserve it!!!

We enjoyed this hike very much. The shuttle pick up from our hotel was great, as we did not have a rental car. The driver was kind and helpful, even though we did have trouble understanding him at times. He was on time for pick up at our hotel and on time for pick up after the hike. We would recommend this tour!

It was my first time on a submarine, and I participated at the request of my grandson who is in his first year of university. There were many fish around the reef, and there were turtles as well. However, I was hoping to see more colorful fish. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to take good photos underwater.

潜水艦は初めて、大学1年の孫の希望で参加しました、漁礁には沢山の魚がいました、亀もいました、ただ、もっとカラフルな魚が見えることを期待していました、海中での写真は上手に撮れなかった、残念。

We used this for our honeymoon memories. We departed from Hilton Hawaiian Village and spent about two hours relaxing on the sea while enjoying the sunset. The time spent heading towards Diamond Head bathed in the sunset was particularly pleasant and enjoyable.

There were only my husband and I as the Japanese participants, but the crew was very considerate and kindly provided us with the onboard explanation in Japanese separately from the other participants.

Additionally, the boat was comfortable to ride on, and when it started to rain, we were able to take shelter under the roof, allowing us to enjoy ourselves until the end. Alcoholic drinks were free for up to two servings, and there was a wide variety available, along with potato chips and warm snacks.

The boat was larger compared to the number of participants, which allowed everyone to enjoy their own space. I would love to participate again when I come to Hawaii.

ハネムーンの思い出に利用しました。
ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ヴィレッジから出発し、サンセットを臨みながら2時間ほど海上でのんびり過ごしました。夕日を浴びるダイヤモンドヘッドへ向かう時間は、特に心地よく気持ちが良かったです。

参加者で日本人は私たち夫婦だけでしたが、船員の方が気を利かせてくれ、他の参加者とは別に私たちだけに日本語で出発前の船内説明をして頂けて非常に親切でした。

また、船も乗り心地は快適で、途中雨が降ってきたときも屋根つきのためデッキからの非難ができ、最後まで楽しく過ごせました。
アルコール類も2杯までは無料で種類も豊富、ポテトチップスやあたたかい小料理もありました。

参加人数に比べ大き目の船でしたので、それぞれが思い思いの場所で過ごせるのもいい点でした。ハワイに来た時には、また参加したいと思いました。

I participated with my children, who are in first and third grade. The pickup vehicle from the hotel to the port was an open bus without windows, which was tough for me since I'm sensitive to exhaust fumes, and it was also very bumpy, making me feel nauseous.

On the way to the submarine by boat from the port, I was excited to see the submarine surfacing. The guide's explanations were in Japanese, which made it easy to focus on searching for fish (those who spoke other languages used headphones).

Depending on where you sit, the view can vary slightly, which can be a pleasant surprise or a bit disappointing. Although it was expensive for our family of four to participate, I’m glad we did. I’m satisfied.

小1と小3の子供を連れて参加。
ホテルから港に向かう時の迎えの車が窓のないオープンなバスで、排気ガスが苦手な私には道中がきつく、さらにすごく揺れたので酔いそうだった。
港から船で潜水艦に向かう際に、これから乗る潜水艦が浮上してくる様を見れて気分が盛り上がる。ガイドの説明が日本語で行われたので、分かりやすく魚探しに集中できた（他言語の方はイヤホン）。
座る席がどこかによって、見える景色も微妙に違うので得したり、悔しくなったり。
家族4人で申し込むと高い値段になるけど、参加して良かった。満足。

Last year, when I came, I couldn't find the time to go, but this time I made it a point to go.

First, we took the cruise to the submarine. This was the issue. My wife, our 4-year-old child, and I participated, but my wife is prone to seasickness. However, we were told it wouldn't be bumpy, so we decided to join.

Once on the boat, feeling a bit too confident, we moved to the deck. It seems that going to the deck made her seasickness worse, and by the time we arrived at the submarine, my wife was down. She returned to the hotel instead of boarding the submarine.

So it was just my child and me in the submarine. Both of us were super excited. We even saw turtles, and time flew by. By the way, I think the submarine was hardly bumpy at all.

I recommend that anyone who is concerned about seasickness should avoid going to the deck.

Personally, I would love to go again. I hear that the one in Hawaii Island allows you to see whales, so I'm curious about that too.

去年、来たときには時間が取れず、乗れなくて、満を持して、乗って来ました。
先ずは潜水艦までのクルーズ。ここが問題でした。妻とこども（4才）の3人での参加で、妻は船酔い持ちですが、揺れないとのことで、参加してみました。
船に乗って、調子にのって、デッキに移動。デッキに行ったことで、船酔いがましたらしく、潜水艦に到着したときには妻はダウン。妻は潜水艦に乗らずに、ホテルにリターンしました。

潜水艦はこどもと、２人。こどもも、僕も大興奮。亀も見れ、時間があっという間に過ぎました。因みに、潜水艦は殆ど、揺れなかったと思います。

船酔いが気になる人はデッキに行かない事をお勧めします。

個人的にはまた、乗りたいです。ハワイ島のは鯨見れるみたいなので、そっちも気になります。

I stayed at the Waikiki Park Hotel, and right in front of the ABC Store, there was a tourist information center with a foreigner. They offered the Atlantis submarine tour for just $40 per person. I had heard that local bookings were cheaper, but I didn't expect it to be this low. The water quality was quite murky, and our next tour was canceled.

My son was happy to be on the boat, and the staff were all very cheerful and wonderful people, but despite that, I still had some dissatisfaction with the tour. If you have a basic level of English or have a translation app or English conversation book on your smartphone, I strongly recommend making a local reservation.

By the way, the souvenir photos that are common at theme parks cost $50. At Dole Plantation, the train photos were $25, so I bought them there.

Wow, I learned a lot. You really can't know until you go and see for yourself.

ワイキキパークホテルに泊まっていましたがすぐそばのABCStore前に外国人が1人いる観光案内所があり、そこではなんと1人40＄でアトランティス潜水艦ツアーが…現地予約は安いと聞いていましたがまさかここまでとは。水質も濁りが酷く、私達の次の便は中止になっていました。
息子は船に乗れて喜んでいましたしスタッフは皆さんとても陽気で明るく素敵な人達でしたが色々差し引いても不満が残るツアーでした。
少し英語ができるレベル、またはスマホで翻訳や英会話本をお持ちなら現地予約を強くオススメします。
因みに、テーマパークによくある記念写真はなんと50＄です。
DolePLANTATIONの列車では25$でしたのでそちらで写真は購入しました。
いやー勉強になりました。
やはり行ってみないとわからないものですね。

On our last day in Hawaii, my girlfriend and I dressed up and boarded a boat, but it felt like a children's summer camp from the movie The Addams Family, with an overly cheerful muscle crew interacting with families and elderly couples in a typically American, broad manner. The food was terrible, mostly fried items that would have been better left unserved. It might be fine for families with children under 13 or elderly couples, but I can't recommend it for couples. My girlfriend felt seasick and became moody, stopping talking altogether. Everyone seemed to be happily enjoying the sea turtles popping up, but I wondered if it was really that fun. This tour, which only goes a short distance from Waikiki Beach, reminded me a lot of the 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea ride I took at Disney World in Florida long ago. We boarded a submarine-like attraction that was full with just 15 people, dove only 2 meters, and saw a mechanical octopus that was broken and wouldn't move, with dads exclaiming "Waoooo!!" to their kids. It brought back that atmosphere.

I feel bad for my girlfriend...

ハワイ最後の日の思い出にと彼女とオシャレして船に乗り込んだものの、映画アダムスファミリーの子供向け夏合宿のごとく、やたら陽気一辺倒のマッスルクルーがマッスルスマイルで家族連れから老夫婦迄、アメリカ特有の大雑把なくくりで終始対応していた。食事は最悪で出さない方がまだましな揚げ物系ばかり。家族連れの13歳未満のお子様、老夫婦には丁度いいが、カップルにはお勧め出来ない。私の彼女は船酔いもあって気分悪く不機嫌になって喋らなくなってしまった。海カメが顔だしているのを皆まんぞくげに喜んでいたが、そんなに楽しいのだろうか？ワイキキビーチからわずかに遠くに行くだけの本ツアーは、昔フロリダのディズニーワールドで乗った海底2万マイルとよく似ている。15人も入ったら満員の潜水艦型アトラクションシップに乗込み、わずか2メートル潜水して、機械仕掛のしかも壊れて動かないタコがでてきて、お父さんが子供にWaoooo!!というやつ。あの雰囲気を思い出す。

彼女には悪いことしてしまった。。

Both my child and I had a great time. As expected, the certificate was also a nice surprise for the kids. The underwater map was very good as well.

親子ともとても楽しめました、やはり、子どもにとっては認定証もうれしかったようです。
海底地図もとてもよかったです。

It was fun to sink to the bottom of the sea and see a lot of fish, but it was a bit disappointing that the colors were hard to distinguish and difficult to see.

海底に沈んでいって、たくさんの魚を見ることができて楽しかったが、色が分かりにくく、見えにくかったのが少し残念

This is my fourth time in Hawaii, and I've used this service three times. I recommend it for the afternoon of the first day. It's a large catamaran, so there's not much rocking, which makes it安心 (safe).

ハワイは4回目ですが　内3回利用しています　
初日の午後にお勧めです
大型のカタマランですので　揺れもさほどなく
安心です　

Since I was accompanied by an elderly person and a child, I booked a submarine tour where we could enjoy the underwater scenery without getting wet.

We took a boat from the beach out to sea and approached the submarine to board it. Although the sea was a bit murky due to the storm, we were still able to fully enjoy the underwater views. It seemed that the scenery was better on the left side than on the right side of the submarine. Additionally, while you can listen to explanations in Japanese through headphones inside the submarine, having some understanding of English allows you to enjoy the real-time commentary even more.

老人とコドモが同行していたので、水に濡れることなく海中景色が楽しめる、潜水艦ツアーを申し込みました。

浜辺からボートで沖に出て、沖にいる潜水艦に近づいて乗り込みます。
嵐の後だったので、多少、海が濁っていたようですが、それでも充分に海中の景色を堪能できました。
潜水艦では、右側よりも左側のほうが、景色は良かったようです。
なお、潜水艦内ではヘッドフォンで日本語の説明を聞くことができますが、多少でも英語が分かったほうが、リアルタイムの説明を聞けるので、より楽しめます。

My childern, ages 16 and 21, and I had the best time on the Sunset Cruise! It was one the top highlights of our vacation in Hawaii! The crew members were awesome! They took care of all of our needs. They took many pictures of me and my children and a couple of "selfies"! They were so much fun!! Everyone on the cruise seemed to be having a blast! The even caught a huge mahi mahi while fishing! We saw a beautiful rainbow and a little of another one to make a double rainbow! We had so much fun, we didn't want it to end! Thanks for a fantastic time!!

I was filled with excitement as I boarded the car for my first submarine experience.

I felt thrilled even while on the boat from Ala Moana Harbor to the offshore location. When we arrived at the point, the announcement mentioned that the previous submarine was surfacing. Bubbles formed, and in no time, the submarine appeared right in front of us. Finally, it was our turn to board. Due to the steep stairs, we slowly descended backwards into the submarine.

My first impression was that, despite being a premium experience, the windows inside the submarine were quite small. Following the crew's guidance, I took my seat. The dive began, and we descended to the seabed. Since I participated in the Japanese tour, I had no trouble with the language, and the explanations were easy to understand. However, depending on the direction we were seated, the season, and the ocean currents, visibility was not very clear, which was disappointing. Given my high expectations, I felt let down.

初めての潜水艦乗船に、わくわく気分で迎えの車に乗車。

アラモアナハーバーから沖合いまでの船の中でもわくわく。
ポイントに着くと船内放送にて前の潜水艦が浮上して来るとのこと。泡が立ちアッという間に潜水艦が目の前に浮上。
やっと順番が来て乗船開始。急な階段の為、後ろ向きにてゆっくり、ゆっくり下り船内に。
第一印象は、プレミアムの割には、船内の窓が狭い。船員さんの案内に従い着席。
潜水が開始され海底へ。
日本語ツアー参加なので言葉には困らず、案内も分かりやすかったが、座る方向、季節、海流にもよるのだろうか？あまり鮮明に見えず残念。
期待が大きかった分、がっかりしてしまった。

Very nice views..pretty easy to hike..and the views were spectacular

It's best to take Premium tour if you want to see. The tour guide was very funny. We enjoued ourselves. We like how colors break down as you descend into ocean floor.

The most spectacular sunset I have seen. Sailing combined with a wonderful crew bringing drinks. Fantastic !

THE BEST WAY FOR US ALL TO SEE THE SAME THING WITHOUT LEARNING TO SCUBA! THE KIDS EVEN GOT SOME VERY NICE PICTURES! COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER!

I experienced the wonderful opportunity to navigate in a submarine and observe various marine creatures and structures. The guide was also fluent in Japanese, and the explanations were enjoyable with some jokes mixed in. We participated as a family, and my grandchild was excitedly saying, "There's Nemo! Oh, a turtle!"

実際に潜水艦で航行して 海中の様々な生物や構築物を見学出来るすばらしさを体験しました。
案内役の方も日本語が上手で、ジョークを交えた説明で楽しく見学出来ました。
ファミリーで参加したのですが、孫も「ニモがいる。あ・亀だ」などと興奮していました。

Wish we could have seen more underwater sites. But its the next best thing to snorkeling for those who haven't done it.

I used this with family and friends. Everyone was excited about diving at a depth we usually can't reach! We even saw sea turtles and rays (*☻-☻*). It was truly amazing!!!

ファミリー＆友人との団体で利用しました。
普段潜ることができないくらいの深さの潜水にみんな興奮！
なんとウミガメもエイも見れました(*☻-☻*)
感激ひとしおです！！！

I made a reservation for my mother, who cannot swim.
It was very cold inside the submarine.
The air conditioning was too strong, and by the end, my aunt felt unwell.
The visibility in the sea was very poor due to the bad weather until recently.
I was able to see two turtles (honu).
I think that was good.

泳ぐことができない、母のために予約をしました。
潜水艦の中は非常に寒いです。
クーラーが効きすぎて、最後の方は伯母は体調が悪くなってしまったほどです。
先日までの悪天候で海の中の透明度が非常に悪かったです。
亀（ホヌ）を2匹見る事ができました。
それはよかったと思います。

It was my first time in Hawaii, and I thought I couldn't miss this tour during this season, but the results far exceeded my expectations. Dolphins swam alongside the boat in a line, and I was able to see sea turtles clearly underwater. To top it all off, a whale surfaced in the distance and spouted water! Super lucky! The guide who spoke Japanese was really fun, and seeing Waikiki from the sea with the ocean breeze was the best.

初めてのハワイでしたがこの時期のこのツアーははずせないと思って参加しましたが結果はまさにはるかに期待を上回るのものでした。なんとイルカが列をなしてボートの横を泳ぎ、海中ではウミガメもしっかり見れて、最後にはなんとクジラさんが遠くに顔を出して潮をふいてくれました。超ラッキー！日本語のできるガイドさんは本当に楽しく海からみるワイキキも潮風も最高でした。

The submarine itself was battery-operated and hardly made any noise, but due to considerable waves, nearly half of the participants got seasick, and as a result, I also felt a bit unwell and couldn't fully enjoy the underwater experience. I found it a bit unkind that the information didn't mention seasickness much. I would like to try again when the waves are calmer. The transportation and boarding process were very easy to understand.

潜水艦自体はバッテリー駆動で殆ど音が気にならなっかたが、かなりの波浪で参加者の半数近くが船酔いになり、その影響で自分も少し気分が悪くなり、じっくり海中を楽しめなかった。案内には船酔いのことが余り触れて無かったのが少し不親切かな？もう一度波の穏やかな時再度チャレンジしたい。送迎，搭乗とうに関しては、とてもわかりやすかった。

Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great, but we were able to see many fish, sharks, and sea turtles. I think the water clarity would be even better on a sunny day.

What was lucky was that we spotted a pod of dolphins from the boat on the way to the submarine.

Additionally, the guide's Japanese was very good and impressive. Above all, riding a submarine is a unique experience, and I believe this is a wonderful tour that allows people of all ages to enjoy water leisure in Hawaii. I especially recommend it for small children and elderly people who do not dive or snorkel.

残念ながらお天気が良くはなかったのですが、
たくさんのお魚やサメ、ウミガメも見られました。
天気がよいときっともっと水の透明度もいいのかな　と思います。

ラッキーだったのは、潜水艦に行くまでのボートからイルカの群れが見えた事。

あとはガイドの方の日本語もとても上手で素晴らしかったです。
なにより潜水艦に乗るなんてなかなか無い体験ですし、
せっかくのハワイで年齢に関わらずウォーターレジャーを楽しめるとても良いツアーだと思います。
特にダイビングやシュノーケルをしない　小さなお子さんやご年配の方に是非オススメです。

The weather was very nice, and it was a pleasant sailing experience. The boat was large, and even I, who easily gets seasick, was fine. There was one Japanese staff member, which made me feel at ease.

Each person receives two alcohol tickets, but no one drank. It would have been even better if the tickets were a bit cheaper.

天気が大変良くて、気持ちのよいセイリングでした。
船も大きくて、酔いやすい私も大丈夫でした。日本人のスタッフが1名いらっしゃいましたので安心でした。

アルコールのチケットが一人2枚ついていますが、誰も飲まず。
別料金で、チケットがもう少し安かったらなお良しですね。

Superb experience, i recommend to all. Also to those who cannot dive and are afraid in to be in the close enviroment. You feel like in the airplane. Great speak of guide, wonderful view.

I wasn't sure where or how to pick up the commemorative photos we took, so I couldn't get them. Is it possible to have them sent to my home? I haven't received any emails from the tour company regarding this, so could you please inquire about it?

記念写真撮ったものをどこにどうやって取りに行けばいいのか分からずに手に入らなかったのですが自宅郵送で送ってもらうのは可能でしょうか？
催行会社からそれに関するメールが来ないので問い合わせて頂けないでしょうか？

I chose this place because it was close to the Hilton where I was staying. Although there were many cloudy days during my stay, the day I had reserved was sunny, and I was able to see a wonderful sunset. There was a Japanese guide, and it was fun to hear various stories. It included two alcoholic drinks, but I ended up having three since the first one was complimentary. The Hawaiian cocktail recommended by the guide was delicious. As many of you mentioned, bringing a long-sleeved cardigan was definitely the right choice. The sailboat was smaller than I expected, but it felt very close to the sea, and I made some great memories.

ヒルトンに泊まっていたので、集合場所が近いため選択しました。
滞在中は曇りの日も多かったのですが、予約した日は晴天で素晴らしいサンセットを見ることができました。
日本人のガイドの方がいて、色々お話が聞け、楽しかったです。
アルコールドリンク2杯付でしたが、1杯目はサービスで結局3杯飲むことができました。ガイドさんお勧めのハワイのカクテルがおいしかったです。
皆さんの書き込みにありましたように、長袖のカーディガンを持参して大正解でした。
思っていたより小さな帆船でしたが、海がとても近く感じられ、楽しい思い出ができました。
