Excellent organization.
Very professional, yet down to earth and friendly.
I learned a lot more than I expected and had a blast the entire time.

One of the most enjoyable activities that we did while we were in Hawaii! My eight year old daughter loved it and wants to go again. The boat crew was fun and very safety conscience. Highly recommended for everyone: Don't miss out!

This was soooo much fun. The Best part of our trip. We had a blast snorkeling, jumping off the cliff, and even the kayaking wasn't so bad. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a way to spend a fun 3 1/2 hrs enjoying the water, catching some rays, and learning about the Island. It was GREAT!

My daughter and her friend parasailed and my husband and I were observers. The girls had a great time and the staff was great! This is the second time we have used Extreme Parasailing and we would definitely use it again. I highly recommend them if you want to parasail in beautiful Oahu!

This was an awesome experience for my wife and I on our honeymoon. It was great exercise and you get to see Hawaii from a whole different perspective. The snorkeling was amazing and we even were able to jump off some cliffs into the water. Mike, the tour leader, was awesome and extremely nice. We would recommend this to anyone!

You don't even get your hair wet, and fish swim right up to you and pick at the bread in your hand. You breathe normally. You can see them perfectly clearly and they come to you. This was really fun. Then you can snorkel around the boat while the other people take their turns, in couples, riding the little underwater scooters. Don't do this if you're prone to seasickness. But if you don't want the hassle of SCUBA, this is the best way to be underwater with the bright little fish.

This was the biggest challenge of my trip as someone with a fear of heights. Until it was my turn, I was so scared that I felt like crying. However, once I took off into the sky, I was moved by the beauty of the scenery that I could never see from the ground. I'm glad I decided to try it. Also, the staff was good and didn't insist on tips.
高所恐怖症の私の、今回の旅最大のチャレンジでした☆
自分の番になるまでは、怖くて怖くて泣きだしそうでした。
しかし、いざ空へ旅立つと、地上からは決して観ることのできない景観の美しさに感動しました。
思い切ってTRYして良かったと思っています。
また、チップもしつこく要求されなくてスタッフの対応もGOODでした(*^。^*)

We just returned from an awesome trip to Kauai and this was by far our favorite activity! It had a little of everything...kayaking, hiking, ziplines and cooling off in a stream fed pool. I was a little concerned about our kids, ages 9 and 11, but they handled the kayaking, hiking and ziplining with ease. We thought it was definitely worth the money. The 1800' zip was the best! We would do it again in a heartbeat!

What an incredible experience diving with all of you!!! I've never learned so much about a dive site in so little time with so much pleasure as I have with Vici, Jennifer, Andy and Pauline. Your dives have awakened my sense of wonder and ignited an insatiable curiosity about marine life everywhere. I'll be back in a heartbeat.

Our dive with you was the best we've ever experienced. Your dive master did an excellent job. Before each dive he reviewed all of the minute details that he expected us to see. Then we saw them in the order that was described. I especially like the speed of the dive; 2 speeds: slow and stop. The field of eels at Molokini and the Devil Scorpionfish were the highlights of our dives in Hawaii. We have been all over, from Tahiti to Cozumel and the Caribbean. Each area has it's pluses and minuses, but we have never had the insight into the dive that you and Dave brought to us from the naturalist/biologist point of view. We don't dive for the parties afterward, we are there for the wildlife. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

I went on a trip with my family to Hawaii for our wedding ceremony, and my sister insisted on doing parasailing as a memorable experience, so I decided to join. To be honest, I’m really not good with roller coasters and had no idea what to expect, so I was extremely nervous.
On the day of the event, I was anxiously waiting, but the pickup was delayed by about ten minutes, which made me uneasy.
We got on the boat and headed out to sea, wearing life jackets... and then it was our turn!!!
However, with every rise into the sky, my anxiety disappeared, and I felt an incredible sense of joy and excitement!
It was the best feeling. I chose the standard course, but I think I would have enjoyed going higher.
If my sister hadn’t invited me, I probably wouldn’t have had this experience in the future, so I’m really glad I did it.
I would definitely want to do it again if I have the chance.
ハワイに挙式を兼ねて家族と旅行にいくので、
思い出にと妹がどうしもしたいというパラセイリングを
しようと決意して参加しました。
実は、ジェットコースターが大の苦手でどんなものか
わからずものすごいドキドキしていました。
当日、ドキドキしながら待っていてもなかなか迎えが
こなくて不安でしたが10分くらい遅れて迎えにきて
くれました。
ボートで海に出てライフジャケットを着て・・
着た~あたしたちの番が~!!!
でも、不安が空に上がるたびに消え、
すご~い!めっちゃ楽しい!という気持ちに変わりました。
気分は最高でした。
スタンダードコースにしましたが、もっと高くでも
よかったと思いました。
妹に誘われなかったら、この先たぶん
することもなかった体験ができてすごくよかったです。
また機会があれば絶対にしたいです。

I participated with my middle school daughter and our family of three. I was quite worried about our physical stamina, but once we decided to join, the instructions were very kind and easy to understand, which quickly dispelled my anxiety. It was definitely a plus that everything was conducted in Japanese. Our whole family was able to stand on the board, and we even had a video taken. It became a wonderful memory for our family.

A close friend and I decided that we would each pick an event while visiting Oahu for 5 days. She wanted to do something under the ocean, and I wanted to do something OVER the ocean. After our parasailing trip, we both were AMAZED at how much fun and relaxing it was.
The staff were extremely helpful and comforting when it came to loading/unloading passengers, and they asked everyone if they wanted a brief "dip" towards the end of the flight. (You never get fully submerged in the ocean with the 'dip' but just get a little wet from the waist down.. it is WORTH IT). Everyone on the boat had a blast and on our way back to shore it started pouring rain.. which I LOVED. It was the epitome of a Hawaiian vacation. 82 degree weather and pouring rain with a rainbow.
As for the flight itself, it was extremely relaxing and the views were spectacular. I wouldn't have originally thought that flying 42 stories high would be soothing, but it was. VERY romantic idea for couples.

Thank you so much for my surfing experience! Four days was definitely not enough for me and I miss it already. You all were so kind and helpful. This was, by far, the best surfing experience I've had in all my attempts to learn. Because of that, I'm planning on picking up some classes out here in California once the weather gets better. So hopefully by the time I return next year, I'll be on a much smaller board =). You guys are awesome!

My two hours with Mito were such a highlight of my time on Oahu I am telling lots of people who are going to the islands that this is a "must do" activity. We had so much fun together and I actually was able to stand, sort of. I have balance problems and thought this was something I would try and enjoy, no expectation of success. I am still not the best in the balance arena, but I did stand on two feet without hands--an accomplishment for me and a credit to Mito's skill as a teacher.

For those who don't know scuba diving but yet wish to experience the life under the sea, need to do this. Very nice experience and enjoyed it. Try feeding the fish and you are surrounded by them ... various colors of fishes ... would recommend to those who wish to go underwater and don't know swimming like me. A bit discomfort to the ears at the beginning but gets fine soon. Good Instructors and the divers shall be with you throughout your stay in the water. Go for it!!

The Beach on the North Shore tour was beautiful, very clean, and a refreshing change from Waikiki Beach. The waves were much stronger and had great surfing beaches along the way for those interested in that. Really enjoyed watching folks on that diving rock there. The ride was long, but the driver was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and relayed lots of information about Hawaii. The stroll through the small, older town with shops and eateries was unique. Loved the music provided by that musical family that lives there and entertains the tourists. A relief to see more enjoyable aspects of Oahu without the hassle of driving.

I can't thank you enough for your assistance and professionalism working with us while we were in Hawaii. You were recommended by my son serving in the Navy, based in Pearl Harbor. My (newly open water certified) daughter and I wanted to dive while we were in Hawaii. We had a very small window of opportunity available and you made it possible for us to have a dream come true dive in Shark's Cove. Our instructor/guide Josh came in on his day off to take us on two amazing dives. With Josh's leadership we saw many species of fish, spiny starfish, eels, swam through lava tubes, along walls of lava all with 100+ visibility. Liz and I could not have imagined more perfect dives, or a better guide. Thank you for being flexible to our schedule, and helping us have the time of our lives. If we have the opportunity to visit Oahu again, we will be sure to call ahead.Thank you.

My boyfriend and I had a really great time on this adventure. Our favorite part was the ziplining. We wish there were more lines! I'm scared of heights but enjoyed it so much I can't wait to do it again!
The kayaking was nice despite the rain. We saw a few "movie spots" during our ride down the river. Also, saw some really beautiful sceneries.
The hiking was not strenuous but there were a few times where you really had to watch your step. Also, for those very prone to mosquito bites, be sure to put it on! It was pretty windy so the guides said we probably wouldn't have to worry about the mosquitos but I ended up getting bit 6 times before I was able to put some repellant.
Overall, a really great experience. This is a great tour if you want a piece of everything.

The best part of snuba-ing is that you don't have to hover on the surface of the water, you can actually breath underwater. We spent most of our time being silly and pretending we were mermaids. We had a blast. Thanks to Kevin and the snuba crew!

My girlfriend and I truly enjoyed the actual activity even if it was shorter than adverstised. We booked the Deluxe Parasailing which is supposed to last from 8-10 minutes and it only lasted less than 6 minutes...That I can live with, what I truly find upseting is the fact that the tour guide decided to make several political comments about Arizona's illegal immigration laws, and the governement. Regardless of where you stand on certain political issues; individuals representing Xtreme Parasailing should keep in mind that they're providing a fun and hospitable environment for their customers, expressing your opinion on a hot button political issue can create disagreements and while debating is the foundation of democracy, parasailing is certainly the wrong place and the wrong time to do it. I can speak for about 3 additional individuals who shared similar comments once the ride was over.
