All Reviews for Kid Adventures (Ages 8-12)

Parasailing itself was fun and a valuable experience! However, it was disappointing to encounter issues with the reservation time and transportation. (We might have just been unlucky...)

[What was disappointing] The shuttle did not arrive at the scheduled time, and we were left waiting. In frustration, we called the local desk of the travel agency we were using for assistance, and they informed us that "the operator had made a mistake with the reservation time." The time we had booked and nearby times were not available, resulting in us being rescheduled for a session two hours later, wasting our morning. We might have just been unlucky, but I wanted to leave this information for future travelers.

[What was good] Parasailing was a lot of fun! The staff was very encouraging. I wore a swimsuit and did a water splash, but my upper body didn't get wet. So, I think waterproofing clothing isn't that necessary. (Please make sure to put your phone in a waterproof case when taking pictures!) Your feet will get wet, so you should bring a large towel!

パラセーリング 自体は楽しく、貴重な体験でした！が、予約時間や送迎などのトラブルに巻き込まれてしまった事が残念です。(私たちがたまたま巻き込まれたのかもしれませんが…。)
【残念だったこと】予約した時間になっても送迎の車が来ず、待ちぼうけをくらいました。困って、利用していた旅行会社の現地デスクに電話をして仲介をしてもらったところ「業者側が予約時間を間違えていた」とのこと。私たちが予約をした時間や近い時間はNGで、結果2時間後の回に回されて午前中が無駄になってしまいました。私たちがたまたま巻き込まれただけかもしれませんが、今後利用される方々への情報程度に書き残しておきます。
【よかったこと】パラセーリング はとても楽しかったです！スタッフのお兄さんも盛り上げてくれます。水着を着ていき、水ジャポンをしたのですが、上半身は濡れませんでした。なので衣類で防水対策はそこまで必要ないかと思います。(※携帯で撮影する場合は必ず防水ケースに入れてください！※) 足は濡れるので大きいタオルは持くべきです！

We were the only Japanese people, but everyone was friendly and talked to us! Even if you can't speak English, you'll manage just fine! Haha. It was my first time parasailing, and the view was absolutely amazing! I have a fear of heights, but I was having so much fun that it didn't bother me at all!

日本人は私たちだけでしたが、みなさん気さくで話しかけてくれました！英語が喋れなくてもなんとかなります！笑 初のパラセイルでしたが、景色は最高過ぎました！高所恐怖症でしたが、そんなことよりも楽し過ぎて気になりませんでした！

I participated in the monitor tour this time, and it was a wonderful experience; I'm really glad I joined! The backstage tour before the show was exciting as we got to see behind the scenes that we usually can't access! They even took photos for us.
The meal was luxurious and very satisfying!
And the show featured the dancers' energetic performances, which were truly impressive!! From hula to impersonation shows, I had a great time, and the time flew by.
I went on the last day of my stay in Waikiki, and it was a fitting way to spend my final night. Thank you very much.

今回モニターツアーで参加をしましたがとても良い経験ができ、本当に参加して良かったです！ショー前のバックツアーでは普段は見られない裏側を見られてわくわく！写真も撮ってくださいました。
お食事も豪華で大満足！
そしてショーはダンサーの皆様のエネルギッシュなパフォーマンスが圧巻でした！！フラからモノマネショーまで、とても楽しめてあっという間の時間でした。
ワイキキ滞在日の最終日に行きましたが最後の夜にふさわしい時間を過ごせました。ありがとうございました。

My boyfriend and I went to this event on the first day of our trip. Our coach is so nice and accommodating. The oxygen tank is heavy and I couldn't really carry it. So he actually carried it for me and helped me wear it when I was in water so it didn't feel heavy haha.
For the next half an hour, we dived around and saw so many small, tropical fishes swimming around us. We saw coral reefs and even a starfish.
It was our first time scuba diving, and our coach is so patient and nice and explained the procedures and things to keep in mind to us in detail. He also answered all the questions I had. He took photos and videos of us scuba diving.
Overall, it was such an amazing experience!

Before putting on the equipment, I had to take off my clothes that I didn't want to get wet, but I forgot to take them off and it was a bit chaotic. However, I had a great time floating in the sky! It was amazing!!

器具をつけられる前に濡れたくない洋服は脱がなければならなかったのに、脱ぎ忘れててんやわんやしましたが楽しく空を浮遊できました！
最高でした！！

It was the first parasailing experience for my parents in their 50s and 60s. Both of them had great smiles. I regret not being able to give the tip smoothly. I wanted to express my gratitude, so it's a good idea to research the customary amount and prepare it in advance, rather than rushing at the moment.

50・60代の両親にとって、初めてのパラセーリングでした。2人ともいい笑顔が見れました。チップをスマートに渡せなかったのが悔やまれます。
感謝の気持ちを伝えたくて、渡したくなるので、その時慌てるより予め相場を調べて用意しておくと良いですよ。

This was one of my highlights. This is a well-planned thriller for anyone that wishes to get a great view of the waterfront. Safety is paramount, putting everyone at ease. The pleasant banter is great and the staff members are experts in their field. I enjoyed the entire time and got some great shots of the boat and the view. Anyone wanting some adventure without travelling far from the beach - this is a great package!

We flew as a family of three. My son, who just turned five, could only experience this here. It was about a five-minute walk from our accommodation at Hilton Grand Vacations, so the kids were fine without getting cranky. The weather wasn't great, so it was a bit chilly... I thought he might be scared of the activity, but he was super excited (laughs). On the way back, he managed to splash just his feet in the sea :-) I brought a waterproof camera, so I took pictures of the scenery from the sky myself instead of asking someone else to do it. The people who participated with us had someone take their pictures, and they got some quite humorous shots, so I thought I might ask for photos when my younger son is old enough to join.

親子３人で飛びました。
５歳になったばかりの息子が体験できるのはここくらいでした。
宿泊しているヒルトングランドバケーションから徒歩で５分くらいのところだったので、子どももグズることなくよかったです。
天気はあまりよくなかったので、少し肌寒かったです・・・
アクティビティ自体は怖がるかなーと思っていたのですが、大興奮でした（笑）
戻るときにうまい具合に足だけ海ポチャしてくれました:-)
防水カメラを持参していたので、撮影は頼まず自分で空からの風景を撮りました。
一緒に参加した方たちは撮影を頼んでいて、なかなかユーモアのある写真を撮ってもらっていたので、次男が参加できる年齢になったときには撮影をお願いしようかなぁ、と思いました。

After reading the reviews, we decided to participate because it met our travel conditions:
- Activities suitable for three people
- Enjoyable for elementary school children and older adults.

The staff seemed to speak a little Japanese, so there were no communication issues. Everyone on the same boat was Japanese, which created a sense of camaraderie.

On the boat, cheerful music played as we headed out to sea. Each group took turns jumping.

It mentioned to wear swimsuits in advance, but I didn’t have one, so I participated in clothes that could get wet. That was not a problem at all.

During the parasailing, we enjoyed the view of the horizon, Diamond Head, and airplanes from the ocean, with a refreshing breeze making it the best experience! After we got off the boat, we were lucky enough to see a whale swimming at just the right moment! Before the parasailing ended, they let us dip our feet in the water. They adjusted based on the people, and while we only dipped once, a couple went in twice, and a group of male college students got splashed several times, which was entertaining for us to watch.

While we were flying, the staff took many photos. We received the data on an SD card for $30. Considering that in Japanese theme parks, one photo costs 2000 to 3000 yen, this was a bargain!

It was a valuable experience!

口コミをみて、
・３人でもできること
・小学校低学年や年配の人でも楽しめること
という私たちの旅行条件に叶っていたので、参加しました。

スタッフさんは、日本語も少し話せるみたいで、コミュニケーションに問題はなかったです。
同じ船に乗った人たちは、みんな日本人だったので、なんとなく連帯感も。笑

船の上では、陽気な音楽が流れ、沖までいきます。各グループごとに順番に飛びました。

水着を事前に着用してくださいと書いてましたが、私は水着を持ってなく、濡れてもいい格好で参加しました。それでも問題なかったです。

パラセイリング中は、沖から眺める水平線、ダイヤモンドヘッド、飛行機、など景色が楽しめて、爽やかな風が気持ちよく最高の体験でした！
そして私たちは、船に降りてからでしたが、タイミングよくクジラが泳いでるのが見れました！
パラセイリングが終わる前に、海に足が浸かるようにしてくれます。人をみて加減してくれてて、私たちは、一回浸かっただけでしたが、カップルは二回、男子大学生？のグループは、身体まで何回かポチャンしてもらってて、見てる私たちも楽しませてもらいました。
飛んでる間、スタッフさんが写真を沢山撮ってくれます。
S Dカードでデータをもらい、30ドルです。日本のテーマパークで、１枚写真を買うのに、2000〜3000円することを思うと、安い！

貴重な体験ができました！

Whilst it was beautiful and scenic. It felt very touristy and quite overrated given the price. In hindsight booking the AV prob would have been better. We did the movie tour and secret island with beach activities.

Three women participated. Luckily, we were able to see two sea turtles, which was very exciting! Wearing wetsuits was definitely the right choice as it protected us from the cold and the coral. In fact, one of us was a beginner who couldn't swim and was experiencing the ocean for the first time. She was really scared when it came to putting her face in the water, getting water in her ears, and not being able to breathe through her nose. At one point, she even cramped up and we worried she might have to give up. However, thanks to the kind support of our instructor Chieko, she managed to complete the one-hour snorkeling session. We are very grateful for all the help. She was really happy to have had a great experience. So, even those who can't swim can participate with peace of mind, and there's no doubt that you'll feel glad you joined!

女3人で参加。ラッキーな事に2匹のホヌに会うことができてとっても興奮しましたウェットスーツ着用により、寒さやサンゴから身を守ることができたのでお借りして正解でした(^^)/ 実は今回、泳げない＆海水浴初体験者がひとりいて、本人は顔をつけることや耳に水が入ること、鼻から呼吸ができないことから、浸水時にとっても怖がり、また、途中、足がつったり…と一時はリタイヤか⁈と心配しましが、インストラクターChiekoさんの親切なサポートにより、初体験の彼女も何とか1時間のシュノーケリング を終えることができました。大変お世話になりありがとうございました。本人も、良い体験が出来たことをとても喜んでおりました。ですので、泳げない方も安心して参加できますし、参加して良かった！と思えること間違いなしです。

It was my first experience snorkeling, but thanks to the guide, I was able to swim happily, and it became the best memory!

シュノーケリング初体験でしたが、ガイドの方のおかげで楽しく泳ぐことができ、最高の思い出になりました！

There were five of us in total, including ourselves. The guide was really kind and entertaining! It was my first time snorkeling, and without the guide, I would have had no idea how to swim while putting on the gear. During the experience, we were able to see sea turtles twice, and we even got some photos taken. They asked if we needed wetsuits (for $10) when we participated. The guide strongly recommended it, so we decided to get one, and I truly believe I would have been cold and caught a cold without it. While it would be fine for just playing in the water at the beach, they mentioned it was necessary since we would be swimming for over an hour, and I am really grateful for that.

If I have friends going to Hawaii, I would definitely recommend this tour!

私達を含め計5人のグループでした。
ガイドの方が本当に親切で面白く案内をして下さいました！
初めてシュノーケルをしましたが、ガイドさんがいなければ器具をつけながらの泳ぎ方など、全く分からずだったと思います。
また、参加中にはウミガメを2回も見ることができ、写真も撮って頂けました。
参加の際にウエットスーツがいるかどうか聞いて下さいました(10$)。ガイドの方が強く推して下さったのでお願いしましたが、もしなければ寒くて風邪をひいていたと思います。。
ビーチでの水遊び程度であれば無くても大丈夫だが、1時間以上泳ぐので必要と言ってくださり、本当に感謝しています。

またハワイに行く友人などいれば是非オススメしたいツアーでした！

We departed from the harbor located further inside the Ala Moana Shopping Center. The staff spoke Japanese, so I felt at ease listening to their explanations.
The 150m parasailing offered breathtaking views!!
As a kind gesture, they let us splash into the sea while being pulled back to the boat from the air. The time spent heading out was also fun, like riding a jet ski.
Thank you very much!

アラモアナショッピングセンターの更に奥にある港から出発でした。スタッフの方は日本語喋れますし、安心して説明を聞けます。
150mのパラセーリングは絶景でした！！
ご厚意で、空から船へ紐を引っ張って戻るとき海にバシャバシャッと付けてもらいました。沖に出るまでの時間もジェットスキーみたいで楽しいです。
ありがとうございました！

We travel by boat from the shore to the open sea and board a submarine. The boat rocks a lot, but the submarine is quiet. The sight of the large schools of fish gathering around the reef is spectacular. While there aren't as many coral reefs as in Okinawa, it's a great experience to have at least once.

浜から沖まで船で移動し、潜水艦に乗艦します。船はよく揺れますが潜水艦は静かです。漁礁に群がる魚の大群は見ものです。沖縄のようにサンゴ礁はいっぱいありませんが一度経験するには最高です

This time, we participated with two adults and two children, a total of four people. The ranch is incredibly vast, and it's even more enjoyable when you compare it to the movie! The bus is very cold, so I recommend bringing warm clothing like a jacket. All the tour guides are entertaining, so definitely participate!

During the cruise, the captain's steering occasionally splashed water on the guests standing at the front, which got everyone excited. There were children on board as well, but it can be quite bumpy, so please be careful.

By the way, for lunch, there was a buffet with delicious dishes like meat, rice, and cake served during the tour, which was great.

今回、大人2人、子供2人の4人で参加です。
牧場は凄く広大で映画と照らし合わせて見るとより楽しいです！
バス内は凄く寒いので上着など温かいものを持っていくことをオススメします。どのツアーのガイドさんも面白いので是非是非参加してください！
クルーズはキャプテンの操縦によって、一番前に立っているお客さんには時折波がかかって、みんな興奮気味でした。子供さんもいましたが、結構揺れるので気をつけてください。
ちなみに、ランチですが、ツアーの合間でバイキングでお肉、お米、ケーキなど美味しい料理がでて、良かったです。

I tried parasailing for the first time, and I'm glad I did! It was less scary than I expected, and I was able to enjoy the view from above!

はじめてパラセーリングにチャレンジしましたが、やって良かったです！
思ったより恐くなくむしろ空の上からの景色を楽しむことが出来ました！！

I went on the shuttle bus knowing that the bay was beautiful from above. Quick however thorough instructions on the equipment. Once you get used to it the beauty you find in the clear waters are amazing. After this outing everything was stress free for me. All I can say is if you can swim you had not miss this.

It was outstanding. Dan made me comfortable all the time as I was nervous.I would recommend any beginner to go with Dan

I chose the 150m option since I was there. It was a tandem flight with my elementary school son, and the view from above was amazing. The staff were experienced and had everything ready in no time. With that momentum, we said, "Let's go! Bye-bye!" and soared into the sky. We even had a splash at the end!

I highly recommend this active experience.

せっかくなので150ｍをチョイス。
小学生の息子とのタンデムフライトでしたが、上空からの眺めはサイコーです。
スタッフも手慣れたもので、あっという間に準備完了。
その勢いで、レッツゴー！　ばいばーい！　って感じで大空へ。
最後にドボンのおまけつき＾＾

おすすめのアクティブですよ。

It was the best parasailing debut, blessed with great weather! Both the captain and the crew were very lively, which made it really exciting! I felt no fear at all and had a lot of fun flying in the sky! In the end, I was dropped into the sea at Big Japon, and it felt amazing! The bus driver, Yano, during the transfer was very cheerful, making the trip enjoyable both ways!

天候にも恵まれた、最高のパラセイリングデビューでした！
船長さん、上げてくれる方、どちらもノリが良くてとてもワクワクしました！
恐怖は全く無く、とても楽しく空を飛ぶことができました！
最後はビックジャポンで海に落として頂きとても気持ちよかったです！
送迎の際のバスの運転手のヤノさんがとても愉快な方で行き帰りも楽しませて頂きました！

We experienced parasailing in Hawaii as a couple on our honeymoon. Now that our son is 8 years old, we thought he could join us, so the three of us enjoyed parasailing together.

The captain and crew were great, speaking to our son in easy-to-understand English, and he seemed to have a lot of fun. They provided explanations in simple Japanese, so you can fly without any worries.

After flying, we had the classic experience of landing with just our lower bodies in the water! If you attach an action camera like a GoPro to your body while flying, you'll get some amazing footage.

新婚旅行のときに夫婦でハワイパラセイリングを体験しました。
息子も8歳になり、もう飛べるだろうということで、家族3人でパラセイリングを楽しんできました。

キャプテンとクルーの方もいい人で息子にわかりやすい英語で会話してくれて楽しそうでした。説明などは片言の日本語で十分してくれますので不安なく飛べますよ。

飛んだあとはお約束の下半身だけ着水！
GoProなどのアクションカムを体に取り付けて飛ぶととてもいい画が撮れますよ。

Upon arrival, it started to rain, and we were supposed to go on the second of the two boats. However, the boat broke down, and we were told we would go once the first boat returned. As the rain intensified, the trip was postponed, and our morning hopes were dashed. It ended up being in the early afternoon, and the voucher we provided did not return. I wrote down the details on paper and confirmed with a translation app that I would wait early at the meeting point two days later. Fifteen minutes before the scheduled time, they came to pick me up, and when we arrived at the boat dock, it was raining again and cold, but we completed the parasailing as planned. I think it would be reassuring if the staff could speak Japanese.

現地到着して、雨が降って来たところ二隻あるボートの内2番目に行く事になったがボートが故障して一番目に行ったボートが戻ったら行くとの事だったが、雨が強くなり、延期としたが、午前中の希望は通らず、午後イチになり、今日渡したバーチャーは戻らず、自分で紙に書いて翻訳アプリで確認して２日後に待ち合わせ場所で早めに待ってると、１５分前に迎えに来てボート乗り場に着いたらまたまた雨で、寒かったけど目的のパラセーリングは完了。スタッフさんが日本語話せれば安心出来ると思う

The experience was amazing and the staff were really helpful and great.

Great experience overall. It was amazing to see all of those beautiful fish swimming in and out of the reef. I would absolutely recommend this experience to friends.

This was our second trip aboard Atlantis and we enjoyed it as much as the first time. It is always nice to be able to do something you can't experience at home and living a thousand miles from any ocean submarines are fairly scarce where we live. I always enjoy seeing critters like sharks and sea turtles but any colorful sea life is enjpoyable. On the personal side we were treated with care and respect and at no time did we feel unsafe. Overall a great adventure. Thankyou very much.

I challenged myself to 150 meters. At first, I was nervous and a little scared, but I was relieved to find that it was surprisingly slow going. The view is amazing! It feels great. Since I did it near Ala Moana, I could see Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head. When we returned to the boat, the kids were thrilled as they splashed in the seawater and then went back up into the air. The instructor was handsome and funny, and the driver was entertaining as well!

150mに挑戦しました。最初はドキドキして少し怖かったのですが、意外とゆっくり登っていくので安心しました。景色が最高です！気持ちいいです。アラモアナ付近でやったので、ワイキキビーチやダイアモンドヘッドが見えました。ボートに戻るときに海水にボッチャンしてから、また上空に登っていったりするので子供たちは大喜びしていました。
インストラクターがイケメンで面白くて、ドライバーも面白くて楽しかったです！

On December 26th, there was an unusually heavy rain in Hawaii. The parasailing scheduled for the next day was unfortunately canceled because the boat couldn't operate due to the rain. What bad luck... I couldn't believe it (>o<). The only option to cancel was just the day before my return, and after some hesitation, I decided to go for it the day before leaving.

My friend and I shouted "What a great decision!" as we soared into the sky. We ascended to a height of 150 meters, where we could see the city of Waikiki from the ocean, with the beautiful blue sky and the evening sun. It felt like we were birds. The aerial stroll lasted about five minutes, but it was incredibly refreshing, and I felt amazing! When we landed, the customary splash of our feet was delightful. I want to try it again!

ハワイではあまり経験したことがないくらいの大雨の12/26。翌日のパラセーリングがなんと船が雨のために動かなくなり、中止に。なんとアンラッキー…。こんなことがあるのか(>o<)と。キャンセルにするか、できるのはギリギリ帰国の前日しかなく、迷った末、帰国の前日にやることにしました。
友人と二人で、正解！と空で叫びました。150メートルの高さまで上り、ワイキキの街が海から一望でき、青い空と夕刻の太陽がとてもステキでした。まるで鳥になった気分。約五分くらいの上空散歩でしたが、とても爽快で、気分は最高！降りるときには恒例の足ぽちゃも、気持ちよかったです。また、トライしたいです。

Great Show!!! Had a lot of fun and everyone enjoyed the show. Food was good and we had a great time. Dancers and performance was outstanding.

Welcomed by hula dancers at the VIP entrance, I felt special and excited from the very beginning. I was guided to the lounge, where I received a commemorative photo and a welcome drink. I was also shown backstage, where I had the fun experience of standing on stage and wearing costumes for memorable photos. Then it was time for dinner. I had a seat right in front of the stage, and luxurious dishes were served one after another. After enjoying the delicious desserts, the show finally began. The performances featured Elvis, Michael, Katy Perry, and many others, providing entertainment for various generations, along with traditional hula shows and fire dances. The quality was high and truly wonderful. Even after the show, Michael and the others took photos and signed autographs, making it a fun experience until the very end. The staff's service was also excellent, making for a pleasant and wonderful time.

VIPエントランスからフラでお出迎えされ、最初から特別感でワクワクです。ラウンジに案内され、記念写真とウェルカムドリンクなどを頂きました。バックステージも案内され、舞台に立てたり衣装を身につけ記念撮影できたり面白かったです。そしてお食事へ。ステージ目の前の席で、豪華な食事が次々と運ばれてきます。デザートまで美味しく頂くと、いよいよショーが始まります。エルビス・マイケル・ケイティペリーといろんな世代が楽しめるパフォーマンスと伝統的なフラショー、ファイヤーダンスまで充分に楽しめました。クオリティも高く素晴らしかったです。ショー後もマイケル達が写真撮影やサインをしてくれて最後まで楽しく過ごせました。スタッフの方達のサービスもとてもいいので気持ちよく素敵な時間となりました。
