All Reviews for Kid Adventures (Ages 8-12)

The Japanese guide came to pick us up right on time in front of the hotel, which was very much appreciated. At first, I felt a bit anxious about the situation being only in English, but I felt reassured knowing that there were two other groups of Japanese participants. The height of 150 meters felt higher than when I went parasailing once before, but it was a very pleasant and enjoyable experience! I also decided to purchase the aerial photos for $30 since it seemed worth it.

集合時間ちょうどにホテル前日本人迎えに来てくださり、とてもありがたかったです。初めは英語だけの状況に少し不安もありましたが、他に2組日本人の方が参加されていたこともあり安心できました。150メートルの高さは昔に一度パラセーリングをやった時よりも高く感じましたが、とても気持ちよく楽しい時間でした！
空中の写真も30ドルはせっかくだからと思い購入しました。

It took longer to get around than I expected, and I returned to my room late, but I was glad to see the sea turtles. I heard there was a Japanese guide in the morning, so I aimed for that and was very satisfied with my reservation.

思いのほか移動に時間がかかり部屋に戻るのが遅くなりましたが海ガメに会えたし良かったです。午前中は日本語ガイドがあると聞いていたのでそれを狙って予約できて大変満足です。

This time, I challenged myself to a height of 150 meters. The view was truly beautiful, and I’m glad I experienced it. The crew was friendly and made it enjoyable. I signed up for photo shooting for $30, but it was disappointing that the quality was poor... I probably won’t request photos again.

今回は高さ150Mに挑戦。
景色が本当に綺麗で体験して良かった。
クルーも愛想良く楽しませてもらえました。
写真撮影を３0ドルで申し込んだが画質が汚かったのが残念・・・
写真はもう頼むことはないかな

My husband and I were first time snorkelers. Dan picked us up promptly from our hotel and we had a lovely drive to Hanauma Bay. Dan explained everything to us and was very professional. We snorkeled at our own pace, but Dan and his wife were always watching to make sure that everyone in our group was safe. We were lucky enough to see four turtles as well as other fish. All necessary gear was provided. I highly recommend this tour!

This is my second time. Last time, I went there by rental car, but I struggled with securing parking and paying for parking fees, so this time I requested a free shuttle service. The shuttle arrived on time at a nearby hotel, and we were dropped off at the same place on the way back. The hotel was in Waikiki, and we returned in less than two hours. Parasailing was just as enjoyable as last time, with the staff's humorous approach and the view from 130 meters high was fantastic, leaving me feeling refreshed. I had a great time without any complaints.

２回目です。前回はレンターカーで現地に行きましたが、駐車場の確保や駐車料金の支払いに苦労したので、今回は無料の送迎を頼みました。
送迎車は時間通りに近くのホテルまで来て、帰りも同じところで下車です。
ホテルはワイキキでしたが、2時間もかからずに戻ってきました。
パラセイリングは、前回同様スタッフのユーモアあふれる対応、高度130mの景色は最高で気分爽快、文句なしに楽しめました。

I went on three tours: a movie location tour, a jungle exploration tour, and a garden tour. All of them were rich in nature and enjoyable.

・映画ロケ地ツアー、ジャングル探検ツアー、ガーデンツアーの３つを回りました。どれも自然が豊かで楽しかったです。

On the day of the tour, it was drizzling and the temperature was low, so the members who got on the boat were saying how cold it was during the parasailing. Since it was a tour that only included parasailing, I brought a little money (for tips), a bath towel, and water. I was told that they would take photos during the parasailing and that I could get the data for a fee. I regretted not bringing a bit more money...

当日は雨がパラパラしていて、気温も低く、ボートに乗り込んだメンバーが寒い寒い言いながらのパラセーリングでした。パラセーリングだけして帰るツアーだったので少しのお金(チップ)とバスタオルと水を持っていきました。パラセーリング中写真を撮ってもらえ、有料でデータがもらえるとの事。もう少し多目にお金を持っていけばよかったと後悔……

Our shuttle time was for 9am and we’re were picked up at 8:59am in a 12 person van. It only took 20 minutes to get to the bay but then we had to wait for 15 minutes just to park and get out. Our drivers name was Diogo and he was super friendly and nice to look at too lol :) After being fitted for our gear we walked to the entrance and paid our $7.50 per person over 13 years to get in and watched a 10 minute video about the history of the bay. It’s a little ways to walk down to the bay and can be tiring to walk back up after snorkeling but they offer shuttle service for $1.25 each way or $2.50 for the day. Take the shuttle. There’s a snack bar at the top if you want a $4 precooked hotdog but it’s better to bring your own snacks. We got into the water at 10:15am and met back up with the driver at 2pm to go back to our hotel, again he was right on time. Overall the kids thought it was fun and we would do it again. The best snorkeling is off to the left side of the beach. The water gets clearer the further you go out.

I was able to enjoy the beautiful sea and sky, as well as the buildings of Waikiki and Diamond Head!!! I decided to go for the 150-meter option, and it turned out to be a really great experience. I also enjoyed the music on the boat and the guide's talk during the round trip to the parasailing point.

綺麗な海と空と、ワイキキのビルディング、ダイヤモンドヘッドも眺めることが出来ました！！！
せっかくならと150メートルを申し込みし、本当に良い体験となりました。
パラのポイントまで往復の船上での音楽や、ガイドさんのトークにも楽しませて頂きました。

I arrived at the venue at 6:30 and was first guided to the buffet. I sat at a long table and waited for my turn to go to the food table. I could choose from about ten different dishes, including green salad, macaroni salad, sautéed sweet potatoes, curry-cooked white fish, and chicken. The photo shows all the dishes I took a little bit of on two plates. The roast beef and pork were really delicious.

At 7:30, the show began. It was incredibly fun. There were performances featuring nostalgic songs from Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley, along with hula dancing. Michael Jackson's performance was particularly impressive; his moonwalk was very skillful and moving. The hula and Tahitian dance segments were short but very authentic and enjoyable to watch. I was seated near the center, which was a great spot, allowing me to enjoy the show even more.

I’m really glad I got to see this show.

6:30に会場に到着してから、まずはビュッフェへ案内されました。長いテーブルに座って順番がくるまで待ち、料理のあるテーブルへ。グリーンサラダ、マカロニサラダ、さつまいものソテー、白身魚のカレー煮、チキンなど10種類くらいから選びます。写真は二枚の皿に全ての料理を少しずつ持ってきたものです。ローストビーフとポークは本当に美味しかったです。
7：30からはショーへ。これはとてもとても楽しかったです。懐かしのマイケル・ジャクソンやエルヴィス・プレスリーの歌とフラダンスのショー。特にマイケル・ジャクソンは圧巻で、ムーンウォークはとても上手で感動的でした。フラダンスとタヒチアンダンスの部分も、短かったですが、とても本格的で見ごたえがありました。席は優先的にセンター付近に案内してくれました。本当にど真ん中のとても良い席で、ますますショーを楽しむことができました。
今回このショーを見れて本当に良かったです。

We went along to this night not knowing a lot about the performance, other than it was in a very convenient location for us and that it was a very reasonable price. We left being blown away by the sheer professionalism, talent and wow factor of the performers and entire evening.

The pre show dinner was tasty and filling, the service friendly & prompt.

The show was in a lovely theatre with exceptional stage and lighting setup and from the moment the show started our eyes were glued to the stage.

The singers and dancers never missed a beat or note, the lighting was beautiful and the music fun and fabulous. We enjoyed the range of pop performers throughout the eras with Elvis and Michael Jackson impersonators as stand out performers! Even at the meet and greet afterwards Michael was perfectly in character - when I asked him how long his show makeup took he replied in a wonderfully accurate voice "makeup? What makeup??"

The fire dancer was also phenomenal with even bar staff remarking that they tried to align their breaks with his performance to go watch from the back of the theatre! Who needs to go to an overpriced louwow when you've got wonderful traditional hula dancers and performers right here.

5 stars - all round a phenomenal night and a "must see" for all visitors!

I thought I wouldn't be able to handle even the lowest height due to my fear of heights, but I decided to go for the highest option at 150m to create a memorable experience. I was extremely nervous before it started, but once I jumped, I was overwhelmed by the scenery and had a lot of fun. The instructors were locals who only spoke a little Japanese, but they encouraged us and helped raise our spirits. I highly recommend participating for those who are hesitant. Also, we didn't bring cash or cards, so we couldn't do it, but I think purchasing photos would make for a great keepsake.

高所恐怖症で1番低い高さでも無理と思いましたが、せっかくの思い出にということで1番高い150mにしました。
始まる前は緊張しまくりでしたが、いざ飛んでみたら怖さよりも景色に圧倒されとても楽しかったです。
インストラクターは現地の方達で片言の日本語しかわかりませんが、テンションが上がるように話してくれました。
迷われてる方はぜひ参加することをお勧めします。
あと我々は現金やカードを持参してなかったので無理でしたが、写真は購入した方が良い記念になると思います。

We had a lot of fun!! I personally thought it was going to be scary, but it turned out to be more fun than scary.

I was imagining a leisurely canoe ride with everyone paddling together, but in reality, we paddled out to the open sea and waited for the waves, riding them back to the shore like surfing. The intense splashes of water and the sense of speed made it quite exhilarating. We rode about four waves, and each wave was relatively long, requiring a good amount of energy to paddle, so I was very satisfied with the number of rides. Only four people held paddles, but a total of six people, four men and two women, were able to join in.
It was so much fun, so I highly recommend it for groups!

ただみんなで漕いでお散歩するカヌーを想像していましたが、実際は沖まで漕いで波を待ち、サーフィンのように一気に浜に向かって波乗りで帰ってきます。激しい水しぶきとスピード感でかなり盛り上がりました。4本くらい波乗りしましたが、1本の波乗り距離も比較的長く、漕ぐのに体力も使うので、本数的にも十分満足しました。パドルを持つのは4人のみですが、男性4人女性2人の計6人で同乗できました。
とても楽しかったのでグループにはおすすめです！

Our tour guide Alex was excellent. He is friendly and knowledgeable about the island, as well as, photography. I learned a lot about my camera and how to improve on my landscape compositions. I highly recommend Alex from Oahu Photography Tours to take you on your sunset photography excursion.

Great experience! Kids really enjoyed themselves. The tour guy on the submarine was hilarious! The boat ride out to the submarine was really nice and got to see some beautiful scenery. Everyone was very friendly! Have to do it if your here, we wanted to do things that we aren’t able to do back home.

The personal attention that you receive during the dinner and pre-show entertainment made you feel so special. The staff remembered your name and details about you — such as where your from, the drinks you like, etc was above and beyond. The food was delicious. My daughter is a vegetarian and they went out of their way to create a vegetarian plate just for her!! The food options on the buffet were all delicious. Both the prime rib and the pork melted in your mouth.

Once we were seated in the theater the videos enriched the show. One of my favorite parts was how the hula girls appearance changed throughout the decades. Elvis was great and Michael Jackson was very impressive. It was more like a musical show than I expected. It was a great surprise. Best night I had in Waikiki ,,,

This was a great experience, from check in to getting off the boat! The guys on the boat were super fun! My 7year old daughter loved it so much that she’s been asking to do it again. I’m 47 and also enjoyed my first time parasailing! We did the 600 ft and my husband and 13 year old son did the 1000 ft. The boat ride was very enjoyable also, love the views and also got to see large turtles! The pictures are a must, the one picture with the shark is worth every penny!

The weather was perfect, making it an ideal day for parasailing! I was a little worried when they were about 5 minutes late for the meeting time, wondering if they would actually show up.

Aside from that, it was an incredibly enjoyable activity that exceeded my expectations, and I was very satisfied!

天気にもめぐまれて、絶好のパラセール日和でした❗️
集合時間を5分ほどまわって、本当に来てもらえるか少し心配になりました。

その事を除いては、期待以上に楽しめて大変満足いくアクティビティでした❗️

Frank was great! He totally took care of us. Suggestion to get the package with the food. It was good food and no hassel!

Our driver and tour guide, Lola, made this tour such a great experience. Her local knowledge, historic information and passion for Hawaii made the tour for us. Unfortunately the Arizona memorial was off limits for us due to issues but we were still able to drive by and pay our respects.

The wind makes the boat sway, and the view from 150 meters is fantastic. The boat also turns, allowing for a panoramic view from the sea. There was a Japanese person on the same boat, so we were able to take videos of each other.

風もあって船の上でも揺れます＆揺らされます。150ｍ景色も最高。船も向きを変えてくれるで、海の上から一望出来ます。一緒の船に乗った時に日本の方がいたので、動画をお互いに撮り合い出来ました。

It was scarier than I expected!! But as I got used to it, the weather was nice, the scenery was amazing, and the wind felt great—it was a strange sensation! I never knew that being off the ground could be so much fun✨ Next, maybe I'll try skydiving♪

予想していたより怖かった！！
でも慣れてくると天気も良くて景色が最高で風も気持ちよくて、不思議な感覚だった！
地面から離れることがこんなに楽しいとは✨
次はスカイダイビングかな♪

I participated in the lesson starting at 3 PM. There were a total of 7 participants, including myself, 3 Caucasians, and 3 Koreans, with 2 instructors. I was a bit anxious since I don't speak much English, but one of the instructors was mixed with Japanese and spoke to me using simple Japanese words. Half of the participants were Japanese. There was a Japanese woman at the front desk.

The board we used in the lesson was similar to a SUP board, so it's easy to stand on. Also, when a wave comes, they push you from behind, so I think even those without paddle strength can enjoy it.

Since this is primarily a "surfing experience" plan, I wouldn't recommend participating with the goal of improving your skills. The mixed Japanese instructor mentioned that after graduating from school, they might come to Japan and appear on Terrace House or not?

15時からのレッスンに参加しました。
参加者は自分と白人3名、韓国人3名の計7名、インストラクターは2名でした。あまり英語も喋れないので不安でしたが、インストラクターの一人は日本人とのミックスとの事で簡単な日本語の単語で話しかけてくれました。利用者の半分は日本人との事です。フロントには日本人女性がいました。
レッスンで使った板はサップの板に近いので、簡単に立てます。また波が来たら後ろから押してくれるので、パドル力が無い人でも楽しめると思います。
あくまで「サーフィン体験」のプランなので、上達したいという目的で参加するのは勧めません。
日本人とのミックスのインストラクターさんは、学校を卒業したら来日してテラスハウスに出るとか出ないとか？

The weather was nice, and I had no trouble communicating in Japanese with the locals. It was a valuable experience, and I had a great time. The driver who picked us up was cheerful and shared various information like a tour guide.
- If you are prone to seasickness, it's advisable to take medication.
- If you want to have your photo taken with a camera, it costs $30 (cash) for the SD card. Note: Card payments will cost $35.
- I also paid an additional $20 as a tip (of course, this is optional).

天気が良くて、日本人には日本語で話してくれて困ることはなかっです。
貴重な体験なので、楽しく過ごせました。
ピックアップするドライバーが陽気な人で、観光ガイドのようにいろいろ教えてくれます。
・船は船酔いしやすいひとは薬を飲んだよいでしょう。
・カメラの写真を撮ってもらうと、SDカードは30ドル（現金）かかります。
注：カード払いは35ドルかかります。
・別にチップで20ドル支払いました（もちろん任意ですが）。

The aerial trapeze while overlooking the city of Waikiki was amazing. The instructor's energy was high, and I had a lot of fun, but aside from the long wait time and the strong rocking of the boat that made me a bit dizzy, it was fantastic.

Waikikiの街を眺めながらの空中ブランコはさいこうでした
インストラクターのテンションも高く楽しめましたが、待ち時間が長く船の揺れもすごくて若干よったことを除けば最高でした。

It was definitely the right decision to go up to 150 meters. The view of Honolulu's cityscape and Diamond Head from the sea was spectacular. The staff and fellow passengers were all very enthusiastic. However, it may not be suitable for those who are prone to seasickness or have a fear of heights.

高さ150mにして大正解でした。
海上から見るホノルルの街並みや、ダイヤモンドヘッドは特別な景色でした。
スタッフや同乗者の方々と大盛り上がり。
ただ、船酔いしやすい方や、高所恐怖症の方には不向きかもしれません。

This trip was the first time we have ever been on a submarine and we are glad we did it as it was one of the best experiences of our lives. My boyfriend Daniel and I were booked on the Premium Seats which I definitely recommend as those windows are much larger. The staff members are very knowledgeable and always looking out for your safety. You will first board the ship that will then sail out to take you to the submarine dock. The sail is really beautiful as you get to see Waikiki and diamond head on the way. When loading into the Submarine they ensure that your safety comes first and are very careful about every little details. During the submarine tour we went as deep as 110ft and it was just wonderful. Everything is super blue and you get to see a lot of different varieties of fishes, treasures and coral reefs. Also the guide and captain are super funny so you will definitely enjoy your time.

I think the price is reasonable for the group lessons. Even though it's a group lesson, you can really enjoy it. They also took photos and sold them for just $10, which was great.

グループレッスンのなかでは価格が安いと思います。
グループレッスンとはいえ、ガンガン乗れます。
写真も撮ってくれて10ドルという安価で販売してくれたのが良かってです。

My friend and I had such a totally awesome night at Rock-a-Hula, and want to go see it again! We got the VIP dinner show, and it was fantastic. From beginning to end, we were treated like VIPs, and couldn't have asked for better service, food or entertainment.

The cocktail and appetizer reception before the theater doors opened was a great prelude to our evening, and their original mai tais were really yummy too. So many delicious things to nibble on that I had to be careful and not get too full before dinner! Oh and dinner, salad, steak, lobster and dessert...so.... tasty! Plus our server was so attentive and awesome :)

Our VIP seats go us close to the stage so we had an amazing view of the performance, and man was it awesome! Elvis, Michael Jackson and Katy Perry, all on one stage for a seriously rockin' evening. The woman who played Katy Perry was my favorite! Not only did she look and sound exactly like her, but she was the sweetest person too!

The fire knife dance was scary awesome, and the perfect topper to a great night. Perfect option if you just want a fun time in Waikiki!
