All Reviews for Kid Adventures (Ages 8-12)

Jimmy was my surf instructor and he was knowledgeable, friendly, and very encouraging. I actually caught a few waves. Overall, I had a great experience and wouldn’t go anywhere else.

It was the best parasailing experience with a stunning view of Waikiki Beach from above! At the end, I mysteriously splashed into the sea, but that was also refreshing and fun! The guide was friendly, and I would love to experience it again if I go back!

ワイキキビーチを空から一望でき、最高のパラセーリングでした！
最後謎に海にぽちゃんと浸かりますがそれも気持ちよくて楽しかったです！
ガイドさんもフレンドリーでまた行ったら体験したいです！

Last time, I participated in the sandbar, and this time I challenged myself with parasailing. Since it was mentioned in the experience reports, I thought it would be pointless to get seasick, so I took motion sickness medication to be fully prepared. On the day of the activity, we were blessed with good weather, and it was refreshing. I participated with a friend (both of us are 65 years old), and it became one of our precious memories in Hawaii. However, it was unfortunate that I didn't have cash on me, and while I was processing the payment for the photos with my card, the shuttle left, making us wait for about 30 minutes. I wondered if there was no confirmation before departure.

前回はサンドバーに参加させて頂き、今回はパラセーリングに挑戦となりました。体験談にも書かれておられたので、船酔いをしては、元も子もないと思い酔い止めを飲んで万全の体制を整えました。当日は天候にも恵まれ、爽快の一言です。友人と二人(共に65歳)での参加でしたが、喜んでくれハワイでの貴重な思い出の一つとなりました。ただ、残念だったのは現金を所持しておらず、写真代をカード決済している間に送りの車が行ってしまい30分程待たされました。発車前の確認はないのかと疑問に思いました。

The captain seemed to have a great vibe and made us feel at ease. I chose the 90-meter option, but I think height didn't matter. I wasn't asked beforehand if I wanted the 90 meters, though.
However, it didn't feel scary at all; it was quite pleasant. Water Japon was very kind to us. (laughs)
At the end, when I gave a tip, they were really happy.

ノリが良さそうな船長(キャプテン)が和ませてくれます。90メートルを選びましたが、高さは関係なく上げられたと思います(;o;)事前に90メートルですね？なんて聞かれなかったので。
でも怖い感じはなく気持ち良かったです。水ジャポンは優しくしてくれました。笑
最後にチップを渡したらすごく喜んでくださいました。

The sea was very beautiful. It was a great memory to see the rare seals. Having a Japanese guide was the most reassuring part. If you're looking for snorkeling, I recommend this place!

海はとても綺麗でした。貴重なアザラシが見れたのは良い思い出です。日本人ガイドだったのが1番安心しました。シュノーケリングを探してる方はこちらがオススメです！

It was my first show. I didn't have high expectations, but it was surprisingly fun and a great show. I would like to go again if I have the chance.

初めてのしょうでした。きたいはしていませんが思った以上にすごく楽しくて良いショーでした。また機会があれば行きたいです。

- All three attractions were amazing. The location tour, jungle exploration, and historical explanations were all interesting and easy to understand. While looking at other attractions, I definitely wanted to participate in the interactive ones.
- The movie location tour was very intriguing, as there were various filming sites besides Jurassic Park.

・三つのアトラクション全て最高でした。ロケ地巡り、ジャングル探検、歴史　的なもの全て説明も面白く、分かりやすく良かったです。他のアトラクショ　ンを見ていると、参加型で是非参加したいアトラクションでした。
・映画ロケ地巡りではジェラシックパーク以外にも色々な撮影があったという　ことで非常に興味深かったです。

I liked that it was easy to find the location since it was near Hilton, and the travel time was minimal. I was worried that traveling by boat might make me feel sick, but it was not a problem at all. The staff spoke only English, but they were very considerate, making it easy for beginners, and they entertained us with some broken Japanese. We started at 9:00 with six participants, and there were three other groups with two participants each, but everything went smoothly, allowing us to enjoy the other activities. Some tours can take up a lot of time just for travel, so I plan to sign up for this tour again next time.

ヒルトンのところから出ているため、場所も分かりやすく、移動時間も最短で気に入りました。船の移動が気持ち悪くなるか心配でしたが、全く問題ありませんでした。スタッフは英語だけですが、初心者の方にも問題ないくらい気遣いをされていて、片言の日本語で楽しませてくれていましたよ。9：00スタートでしたが、6名で参加し、他に2名参加が3組おりましたが、スムーズに進み、他を楽しむことができました。ツアーよっては移動時間だけで時間がとられてしまうため、次回もこのツアーに申込む予定です。

- Taste of Kualoa Tour
In the vast nature, with easy-to-understand explanations from a Japanese guide, I was able to see various plants and also enjoyed some tastings. Since various movie filming locations and sets are still preserved, it was a lot of fun!

- Jungle Expedition & Kualoa Legends Tour
Riding in the back of a large jeep-like vehicle, we went through the jungle, which was quite thrilling. The gate from Jurassic World was there, and there were even claw marks left by the Indominus Rex on the wall! I was able to touch on history and had a very valuable experience.

- Movie Filming Locations & Ranch Tour
In the midst of wonderful scenery, the landscapes I saw in the movies spread out before me, and I was very moved! The fallen tree where Dr. Grant and the children hid from the approaching dinosaur in Jurassic Park is still there, and you can take commemorative photos there! I also got to see famous movie scenes and sets from Jurassic World and King Kong, making it the best experience!

・テイスト オブ クアロア ツアー
広大な自然の中を日本人ガイドさんのわかりやすい説明で、様々な植物を見ることができ、また試食も楽しめました。様々な映画のロケ地やセットもそのまま残されているので、とても楽しめます！

・ジャングル探検＆クアロア伝説ツアー
大型のジープのような車の荷台に乗り、ジャングルの中を抜けていくので、迫力があります。ジュラシックワールドに登場するあのゲート、そして、壁にはなんとインドミナス・レックスがつけた爪の傷跡もしっかり残されています！歴史にも触れられ、とても貴重な経験ができました。

・映画ロケ地＆牧場ツアー
素晴らしい景色の中、映画で見たあの風景が目の前に広がっていて、すごく感動しました！ジュラシックパークでグラント博士と子どもたちが、迫りくる恐竜から逃げるときに身を隠したあの倒木がそのままあり、そこで記念写真を撮ることができます！他にもジュラシックワールドやキングコングなど、有名な映画のあの景色やセットを見る事ができて最高の体験でした！

It was a course without Japanese guidance (although it seems there is Japanese guidance available through headphones, which I didn't use), but I understand enough English, so it wasn't a problem. Everyone else was foreign, and I was a bit fed up with the number of Japanese people in downtown Honolulu, so it was nice. There was a sense of universality when the Canadian child next to me asked, "Where's Nemo?" Seeing the submarine surface near the boat was exciting. I enjoyed seeing beautiful fish, rays, and turtles (it would have been even better if sharks had appeared), and it was my first experience diving into the ocean from a submarine, which was interesting. It was a smaller submarine with small windows, but I think it was sufficient.

日本語案内ではない時間のコースでしたが（ヘッドフォンで日本語案内はあるようだが使用せず）そこそこ英語がわかるのでまあ問題なし。
自分達以外は外国人で、ホノルルの街中が日本人だらけで少しウンザリしていたのでちょと良かったです。
隣のカナダ人の子供がニモはどこ？という言葉に世界共通感がありました。
沖で船の近くに潜水艦が浮かんでくる様子はウキウキしました。
きれいな魚やエイやカメがみられて楽しかったですし（サメでも出て来たらもっと良かったけど）、潜水艦で海に潜るという体験が初めてのことで面白かったです。
窓の小さい方の潜水艦でしたが十分だと思います。

Michael's dance show was amazing. The hula show was also authentic and powerful. Everyone is saying it was great to have the VIP seats.

マイケルのダンスショーが最高でした
フラショーも本物で、迫力ありました
ＶＩＰ席でしたがこちらにして良かったとみんな言ってます

It was the most enjoyable activity I participated in. I recommend the 150m option. The views of Honolulu's streets and Diamond Head were beautiful.

一番参加して楽しかったアクティビティです。150mがオススメ。ホノルルの街並みやダイヤモンドヘッドが綺麗に見えました。

I was TERRIFIED to go parasailing. The team that took us out was funny, lighthearted and made me feel completely at ease. What an incredible experience and a lifetime memory as part of our round-the-world honeymoon! Thank you for everything!! Highly recommend this to anyone who has even an inkling of a desire to go! ♡

I participated in the 150m event ^ - ^
At first, I was anxious, but the staff member was really upbeat and it was so much fun!
However, for those who are prone to seasickness, taking motion sickness medication is a must.

150m参加しました^ - ^
最初不安でしたが、従業員の兄さんのノリが良く最高に楽しかったです！
ただ、船酔いしやすい人は必ず酔い止め必須です。

Challenging myself to 150 meters. At first, I was nervous, but once I started flying, it felt amazing. The blue ocean spread out below me, I could feel the blue sky close by, and the refreshing breeze was just perfect. If you're going to fly, go for 150 meters!! There’s absolutely no fear. I highly recommend you try it!

150メートルに挑戦。最初はハラハラドキドキでしたが、飛び始めたら最高の気分。青い海が眼下に広がり、青空を近くに感じ、気持ちいい風が当たり最高でした。飛ぶなら150メートル！！怖さは全くありません。ぜひ挑戦してください。

It was fun! The staff were kind, the explanations were easy to understand, and they took a lot of photos. It was the best entertainment! I want to try again. Thank you!

楽しかった!
スタッフさんも親切で説明も分かりやすく写真もたくさん撮ってくれて最高のエンタメでした!
また挑戦したいです。
ありがとうございました!

With a variety of shows including hula dance, fire dance, Michael Jackson, and Elvis Presley, I thought this price was a great deal, especially with the large buffet included. You can also take photos as long as you don't use flash.

フラダンス、ファイアーダンス、マイケルジャクソン、エルビスプレスリーと盛りだくさんのショーに加えて、大ボリュームのビュッフェがついてこのお値段なら安いと思いました。また写真もフラッシュをたかなければ撮影出来ます。

There were Moai statues, but it was disappointing that we weren't allowed to get off the bus. Also, basically, if you sit on the right side of the bus, you can enjoy various views. Sitting on the left side (driver's side) might be disappointing for those who want to take photos.

モアイ像がありましたが、バスから下ろしてくれなかったのは残念でした。
また、基本的にバスの右側の座席に座ると色々な景色を楽しめます。左側（運転席側）に座ると写真を撮影したい人にとっては残念かも

This is my second year taking on the challenge. Last year, I had a photo with my wife, but this year I planned to attempt the 150 meters alone. However, since solo flights weren't allowed, it turned into a 150-meter trial with three people.

Once we were in the air, it was truly high. I could see the Hilton skyscraper and Diamond Head at the same eye level.

Next year, I definitely want to come with my family and let the kids take on the challenge.

２年続けてのチャレンジです。
昨年は奥さんとのツーショットでしたが、今年は僕一人150ｍに挑戦しようと思っていました。ところが一人でのフライトは出来ないという事で３人での
150ｍトライになりました。
空に上がると本当に高かったです。ヒルトンの高層ビルや、ダイヤモンドヘッドも同目線で確認できました。
来年も是非家族ときて子供たちにチャレンジさせてあげたいと思います。

Since I applied on my home computer just before departure, I left without confirming the pickup location and time, which made me really anxious about whether I could participate. Just to be safe, after arriving in Hawaii, I called the local contact number and checked my page to confirm the location and other details. When I called the local contact, I couldn't understand much as they spoke in Japanese, but I soon received a call from someone who could speak Japanese, which made me feel relieved and able to participate. There were three groups of foreigners and two groups of Japanese, including my family, totaling 12 people on the boat. My son and I flew together. The view of Diamond Head in the distance and the blue ocean from above was very beautiful. I didn't find it too scary, but my son seemed to be scared and couldn't let go of both hands, so he couldn't take pictures with his smartphone. (Photos are available for purchase at $30 for a CD with the data for those who want them.) The piloting technique of taking off from the back of the boat, dipping into the sea up to the waist, and landing at the back was impressive. The minimum items to bring when participating are a swimsuit, cash or a card, sandals (which you take off when flying), and if you have them, a T-shirt or other top, a towel, and sunglasses.

出発間際に自宅のパソコンで申し込んだため，ピックアップ場所と時間の確定を待たずの出国となり，本当に参加が出来るか不安でした。念のため，ハワイ到着後に現地の連絡場所へ電話したり，マイページで確認して場所等を確認しました。現地の連絡先へ電話すると日本語は通じず何を言われているかほとんど分かりませんでしたが，すぐに日本語の通じる方から電話があり，安心して参加が出来ました。ボートへは外国の方が３組と日本の方が私達家族を含めて２組の12名で乗船しました。息子と三人で飛びました。遠くに見えるダイヤモンドヘッドや上空から見る青い海はとてもきれいでした。私はあまり怖いと思いませんでしたが，息子は怖かったようで両手を放す事が出来ずにスマホで写真が撮れていませんでした。（写真は３０ドルでデータの入ったCDカードの販売が希望者へあります）ボートの後部から空へ飛び，海に腰まで海水へ浸からせそして後部で着陸する操船テクはさすがでした。参加時に持って行った方がいい物は最低限であれば水着，現金かカード，飛ぶ時は脱ぐがサンダルで，あれば良いものはTシャツ等の上着，タオル，サングラスくらいです。

I participated in the 150m event.
I was impressed by the beautiful sea and the view of Waikiki.
The shuttle driver was humorous, and even if you're not confident in your English, you can still enjoy the tour.
I thought it might be a bit dull to take our own photos, so I declined the suggestion for a photoshoot.

150mで参加。
綺麗な海とワイキキの街を一望できて感動しました。
送迎ドライバーがユーモラスな方で、ツアーも含めてですが、英語に自信が無くてもちゃんと楽しめます。
写真は自分たちで撮れば良いかなと考えて野暮かも知れませんが撮影の提案は断りました。

The staff was lively and it was fun. However, it might not be suitable for those who are prone to motion sickness... Even taking motion sickness medication didn't help (tears).

スタッフもノリノリでおもしろかった。
しかし酔うので乗り物酔いに弱い人には向いてないかも…
酔い止め飲んでもダメでした（涙

I challenged myself to 150m! The local guide was lively and kept the participants engaged while leading us. The location is a harbor that is about a 10 to 20-minute walk along the coast from the Waikiki area, on the opposite side of Diamond Head, so you can enjoy the scenery while walking there. It might actually be faster to walk than to take a car.

The tip is $10 per person, and the photo data purchase was around $30, if I remember correctly. It's nearly impossible to take photos by ourselves, so we bought the SD card filled with memories to take home. There are many photo data files, and some of them are quite funny (the guide added a little extra touch to some photos). Definitely worth buying!

It was fun! However, the boat is small until you take off into the sky, so it sways a lot. Even with motion sickness medication, I felt a bit queasy, so be prepared! My wife usually doesn't get seasick, but she ended up feeling sick on the boat.

150mに挑戦しました！
現地ガイドの方がノリ良く参加者をまとめながら進行してくれます。
場所もワイキキ地区からなら海沿いをダイヤモンドヘッドの反対側に歩いて10分から20分にあるハーバーなので景色眺めながら散歩してすぐ着きます。車の送迎より歩い方が早いかも。
チップは1人10ドルづつと写真データの購入に30ドル？だったかな？
自分達で写真撮るのはほぼ不可能なので思い出の詰まったSDカードは購入して帰りました。
沢山の写真データがあり中には面白く写っているものもあります。（ガイドさんが一手間加えた写真があります。）買うべき！
楽しかったです！が空に飛んで行くまで船が小さくので揺れが凄いです。酔い止め飲んでも少し船酔いしますので覚悟してください！
妻は普段船酔いなどしませんが船酔いしてしまいました。

I have never felt so seasick from the boat's rocking during the journey. It was the worst I've ever experienced in my life. The actual event felt relaxed and leisurely without any thrill.

道中の船揺れで未だ嘗てないほど酔いました。人生で一番。本番はスリルなくのんびりしている感じでした。。

The show was very enjoyable! The food was normally delicious, but the time to eat was short, and I ended up leaving a lot. It would have been nice to have a bit more space and time to enjoy the meal.

ショーはとても楽しめました^_^
ご飯は普通に美味しかったのですが、ご飯を食べる時間が短くてたくさん残してしまいました。もう少しゆったりしたスペースで時間をかけて食べれたら良かったかな。

I retired after about an hour due to lack of stamina, but it felt great to ride the waves with Diamond Head in the background, surrounded by the blue sea and sky. I was a bit worried because it said "English-speaking instructor," but they were fluent in Japanese, so I was able to participate with peace of mind. The paddling was tough, so I want to build up my stamina and try again.

体力不足で1時間ほどでリタイアしていまいましたが、青い海青い空の中ダイヤモンドヘッドをバックに波に乗れて気持ちよかったです。
English Speaking インストラクターと書かれていて少し不安でしたが、日本語ペラペラで安心して参加できました。パドリングがキツかったので体力つけてまたリベンジしたいです。

I participated alone, but there were a few other solo participants as well. I have been to Hawaii many times, but this was my first time on the Manoa Falls tour! It was so much fun without a dull moment! Since we didn't take a bus, I learned a lot of things I wouldn't have known otherwise. They also took pictures for us, and we could go at a leisurely pace. The weather was great that day, but the ground was quite slippery, and I slipped a few times. Just when I started to get hungry, we had a delicious lunch at Kapiolani Park while looking at Diamond Head! Our guide, Billy, was really fun, and the driver, John, had a charming smile that made the tour very enjoyable. If the dates align, I would love to join this company's dolphin tour as well. Thank you!

1人で参加しましたが他にもお1人参加の方がチラホラ。
ハワイは何10回と来てたのですがマノアの滝ツアーは初めて‼️
退屈する事なく楽しかった‼️
バス使って行くのでは分からない事もいろいろ教えていただき
写真も撮ってくれるしゆっくりなペースで行けます。
当日はとてもいい天気でしたが足元がよく滑るので何回かズルっとしました。
お腹空いてきたところでダイヤモンドヘッド見ながらカピオラニ公園で
美味しいランチ‼️ ガイドさんのビリーさんすごく楽しくドライバーさんのジョンさん？すごくチャーミングな笑顔で癒されるツアーでした。
日にちが合えばこの会社のイルカツアーも行きたくなりました。
ありがとうございました

This is my seventh time in Hawaii. Although I had tried to challenge myself several times in the past, the timing never worked out, and this time I finally got to do it!

On the first day after arriving in Hawaii, I took an evening lesson to combat jet lag, and the weather and waves were perfect, allowing me to stand up from the very first try. The two hours flew by, and it was so much fun that I booked another lesson for the day before my return.

However, the second time was on a day with strong winds, which made it a bit challenging. For beginners, it might be better to avoid days with strong winds for easier riding.

ハワイは7回目です。過去に何度かチャレンジしようと思いつつも、タイミングが合わず、今回やっと挑戦できました！
ハワイに到着した初日の時差ボケ対策で夕方のレッスンを受けましたが、天気も波も最高で、1回目から立つことができました。2時間があっという間に過ぎ去り、帰国前日にも再び予約するほど楽しかったです。
ただ2回目は風が強い日でしたので、少し大変でした。初めての方は風が強い日は避けたほうが乗りやすいかもしれません。

The scenery was amazing, and I was able to fully enjoy the beautiful views of Hawaii! Unfortunately, the timing for parasailing was noticeably inconsistent among different people. They do take commemorative photos, but it costs $30 in cash or $35 with a credit card, and you should also prepare a $10 tip per person.

景色は最高でハワイの美しい景色を満喫できました！
残念だったのは人によってパラセーリングの時間が露骨にバラバラだったことです。
記念撮影してくれますが現金なら30ドル、クレジットカードなら35ドル、他に1人チップ10ドル必要ですので準備した方がいいと思います。

I'm not very good with heights, but I decided to go for 150 meters! However, once I actually jumped, the view was amazing and it felt very stable, so I wasn't scared at all. It was so much fun that I wanted to jump more! I definitely want to do it again when I come back.

私は高いところがあまり得意ではないのですが、思い切って150mにしました！！でも、実際に飛んでみるとすごく景色がよくまた安定感もあるので全然怖くなく、楽しすぎてもっと飛んでいたかったです(^o^)また来たときにはやりたいと思います
