I experienced 150.
The view of the Hawaiian sea from such a high position was amazing!
I love heights, and it was very exciting with a thrill that you can't experience anywhere else. I think the experience lasted about 15 minutes, so I was able to fully enjoy it!
I believe this is quite a good deal for the price.
They do ask for a tip on the way back, but they say it in a casual manner, so I didn't feel uncomfortable giving it.
Above all, since it's such a good deal, I didn't mind the tip amount.
You can enjoy yourself sufficiently from the boat even before reaching the middle of the sea.
Definitely give it a try! 🎶
私は150を体験しました。
すごく高い位置からみるハワイの海は最高でした!
高いところが好きな私ですがとてもエキサイティングで
他には体験出来ないスリルがあり体験時間も15分くらい
あった様に思いますので、思う存分満喫できました!
これでこの値段はかんりお得だと思います。
帰り際にチップを要求されますが、フランクに
言われるので嫌な気分もせず渡しました。
なによりお得なのでチップの値段も気なりません。
海の真ん中に行くまでもボートの上から充分に
楽しめます。
是非お試しを~♫

It was a bit scary since it was my first time surfing, but the locals were warm and provided guidance, and I was able to experience standing on the waves! However, I felt that two hours was a bit short... I want to do it a little more!
初めてのサーフィンでちょっと怖かったのですが、現地の人も暖かく指導してくれて、一応波の上に立つという経験をすることができました!!
でも2時間じゃちょっと足りないかな・・・という印象は受けました。もうちょっとやりたい!!

Great Experience! I have skydived before so I wasn't worried, but my husband was apprehensive to go up that high. He had a great time! The staff was great, everyone on the boat enjoyed it. Waikiki beach looked awesome from that high up, and we even had a whale sighting! There are so many companies to choose from, I am glad we choose this one. FYI, make sure you wear your swimming suit!!!

My husband and I recently went on a kayaking adventure and absolutely loved it!! The waters were sooo beautiful and the locations we visited were amazing! I even jumped off a 22ft cliff into the water!! The snorkeling was amazing and the two tour guides were simply wonderful - very experienced and helpful! This was really one of my favorite aspects of our trip.

We had always wanted to try parasailing. It was fantastic. We were so high in the air that the people on the boat looked like ants. It was a great way to see the island from the air. We were laughing and having a blast. The transition on and off the boat was very smooth. They took pictures for us and only charged $15 and gave us the roll of film to develop. The shark cage tour wanted $60 for the video so we bought the pictures from this tour.

This way a great way to explore the North Shore without having to do the driving. The driver, Keoki, was great! He showed much aloha which made this trip very special. Thanks again Keoki!

Overall my sister and I had a good time.
I was very disappointed with the cost of the photos. Even when the instructor tried to barter with me and cut the cost in half, it was still an outrageous price for a Cd that cost pennies to produce. If they were actual photos the price is still rediculous.

Being from Kansas, my family and I don't exactly get too many opportunities to go kayaking in the ocean, so when my son asked if we could do the kayaking and whale watching, I was little scared but now I am so glad that I did it! This was such a great tour from the moment we met our guide up until we came back to shore. Seeing whales while in our kayaks was completely breathtaking and the professionalism displayed by the guides was top notch. Keep it up folks!

My first time in Hawaii and my husband and myself went on the kayak whale tour and I was nervous at first but the guide was so nice and he took very good care of us. Being in the open water and seeing the whales from a distance was very wonderful and I hope I can do this again soon. The kayaking was not very hard and I learned quickly thank to my guide and teacher.

My husband and I did this our first day and I was a little nervous about it, but once you get up in the air its so cool! I didn't know just how bad my husband was afraid of heights cause he got pretty scared, but you're attached to a parachute! I felt bad for dragging him up there with me, but I really loved it - a once in a lifetime thing, so why not do it while you're in Hawaii? I also read some other comments about how there was pressure to tip, but I didn't feel that way, yeah, there were 20's taped to the boat and they did ask that we "take care of them" but I thought it was only proper to tip so I gave them 10 bucks for the both of us. Don't let something like that ruin, or keep you from trying this. It was Awesome! FYI: bring a waterproof disposable camera up with you for some great shots!

The other instructors in the water even chiped in and helped push us off and give tips too! and when we were waiting for the waves to come in the conversation was very fun and smiles were a constant!

We had a great time on this tour. The group was small, so the guide could be flexible and give individual attention to each participant. There was a range of activities so you could choose how active you wanted to be. We did the Wailea Falls hike and stand-up paddling. We had lunch at the cafe at Wailea Falls, very good Hawaiian-style food. We were glad we paid the extra for an instructor on the paddling as it was challenging. I would only recommend doing it on your own if you are experienced. I highly recommend this tour if you are interested in learning more about the North Shore.

We opted for the 4 hour guided tour. Our guide Sheila was fun and extremely knowledgeable. She gave us history, marine biology, and geology lessons as we kayaked out to one of the off shore islands and while exploring the island. The folks on the 2 hour tour were there as long as we were, but they spent less time kayaking and did not visit the island we did - I highly recommend opting for the 4 hour tour. You'll get a lot more kayak time and a much more interesting island to visit.

It might be due to the timing, but unlike the options booked through the travel agency, there were no other Japanese participants, which made me really feel like I was abroad, and it was great! The parasailing experience was fun, and the instructors were interesting. I even got to see a shark, which is something you don't usually see. Although I was a bit nervous because communication in Japanese was limited and there was the shark, I was very satisfied with this valuable experience!
時期的な事もあるかもしれませんが、旅行会社で予約したオプションとは違い、他の参加者に日本人がいなかったので海外に来たっていう実感ができとてもよかったです!
体験したパラセイリングもインストラクターの方々も面白く、普段はあまり見られないという鮫も見れ、日本語があまり通じないってのと鮫には少しドキドキしたけど、貴重な体験ができとても満足でした♪

Two foreign staff members assisted us, one as the driver and the other explaining the parasailing and helping us put on life jackets.
They provided explanations in both English and Japanese, so it was fine even if you didn't understand English.
While the foreigners flew one by one, I requested to go up together with another person.
At first, the boat sped off quickly, which was overwhelming, but once we were flying, it wasn't scary at all!
In fact, the wind was refreshing and the view was great☆
At the end, they playfully dropped us into the sea, but if you say "NO," they won't let you fall. Haha!
The flying experience went by in a flash!!
It was $15, and they also took photos. Since it was on film, we couldn't check them on the spot, but they had a telephoto lens, so they took pictures even after we were flying. I’m looking forward to the 24 shots we took.
Tips are requested separately. It might be a good idea to bring a little cash for tips for the camera.
担当してくれたのは外国人の方が二人で、運転手とパラセイリングの説明やライフジャケットを着せてくれて、上にあげてくれる人。
説明は英語と日本語でそれぞれしてくれたので、英語がわからなくても大丈夫でした。
外国人は一人ずつ飛んでいたましたが、私は二人でお願いして一緒に上げてもらいました。
最初はボートが勢いよく進んでいくので圧倒されたけど、飛んでしまえばぜんぜん怖くなかったです!
むしろ、風が吹いてで景色も良かったのでさわやかでした☆
最後に愛嬌でぼちゃんと海に落とされるのですが、ちゃんとNOといえば落とさないでくれます。笑
あっという間のフライングでした!!
15ドルでしたから写真も撮ってくれます。
フィルムなのでその場で確認することは出来ませんが、望遠レンズ付なので飛んでからも写真を撮っていました。24枚取りで出来上がりが楽しみです。
チップは別に要求されます。
カメラをチップで少しお金を持っていくといいかもしれません。

The snorkeling experience was breath taking,literally!! I hadn't snorkeled in years and had a hard time not breathing through my nose. The team worked with me to get be back in the water and snorkel. The team was very friendly and connected with everyone in a personal level. The boat was smooth ride, which surprisingly didn't get my husband sea sick. We had a great time snorkeling Molokini crater and searching for sea turltles along the shore. We weren't able to snorkel turtle town due to the murky waters, however, snorkeling the back of Molokini crater was also a unique experience. We would definitely take this snorkeling tour again and recommend it to anyone!!!

My husband experienced it for the first time in 20 years, and it was my first experience, but the staff taught us various things in advance, so we felt safe entering the sea. We had a lesson with three people, including someone from Europe, and they helped us compare the waves so that everyone could ride equally. It was exciting to ride the waves and I was thrilled. I definitely want to participate again.
主人は20年ぶり、私は初体験でしたが、スタッフの方が事前にいろいろ教えてくれ安心して海に入れました。
欧人の方と3人のレッスンでしたが、どの人にもまんべんなく乗れるよう波を見比べてくれ、楽しく波に乗ることができ感激でした。

We booked this tour on line before arriving in Waikiki. Wondered if we had made a mistake, but the tour was great. We were picked up on schedule exactly as promised. Our tour guide, Sam, was informative and knowledgeable about the island and the culture.
The best part of this tour is the choices! The next best thing is how much time you have on your own to enjoy the activity choices. Couldn't have been better. Absolutely loved it! Would go again.

Hello All!
My husband and I took this tour on Tuesday, Oct 6th, 2009. It was the best tour ever! North Shore is beautiful and absolutely amazing. We had one activity and rode a beach cruiser to all the beaches. We hung out at Waimea Beach and the waves were pretty insane. There was a surfing competition on the other beach. We saw sea turtles and that was a SIGHT! Our tour guide Sam is the definitely the coolest guide ever. We 100% recommend this activity to everyone. No joke. If you don't believe, you guys can contact us at mdot42@hotmail.com. =D

I had my first experience at the age of sixty. I was a bit anxious before getting on the boat, but once we started, I forgot all about it. This time, I participated with my wife. Since we were in Waikiki, we had a great view of Diamond Head and the city of Honolulu. The instructions were in English, but they also spoke a little Japanese, which made me feel at ease. The blue of the ocean and the blue of the sky were amazing, and without the sound of the wind, I truly felt like a bird. I would love to experience this again if I have the chance.
Lastly, I was a bit flustered when a foreigner prepared a tip, but I think it would be good if that was clearly stated. I went this time for my son's wedding, and I was able to have a wonderful experience.
初めての体験を、還暦にしました。ボートに乗る前はやや不安でしたが、スタートしたら忘れてしまいました。今回はワイフと参加しました。ワイキキですので、ダイアモンドヘッドやホノルルの町が一望。説明は英語でしたが、片言の日本語でも話してくれたので安心でした。海の青さと空の青さが素晴らしく、風の音も無く本当に鳥に成った気分でした。機会が有れば何度でも体験してみたいです。
最後に、外国人がチップを用意したので慌てましたが、明記して頂けたら良いと思いました。今回は息子の結婚式で行きましたが、素晴らしい体験をする事が出来ました。

We participated as a group of three women. One of us was a complete beginner, while the other two had only tried it a few times. However, it was our first time surfing in Hawaii... The price was affordable, we wanted to learn from locals, and transportation was included!
While the instructions were in English, I think it would be fine even for those who don't understand English. (There were also people who could speak Japanese.)
In any case, I highly recommend it! The instructors are kind and will definitely help beginners stand up on the board. However, if you prefer a slower pace and more thorough instruction, it might be better to avoid group sessions.
女子3人で参加しましたぁ。
一人はまったくの初心者で、あと2人は数回やった事があるぐらいです。でも、HAWAIIでサーフィンするのは初めてなので・・・。価格も安いし、地元の人に教えてもらいたいし、送迎もついてたので!
教えてもらっている時は英語でしたケド英語が分からない人でも大丈夫だと思いますよー。
(日本語が話せる方もいたので。)
とにかくオススメです!
優しく教えてくれるし、初めての人でも絶対に立てます。
ただ、もっとゆっくりと、しっかり教えて欲しい方などは、グループ参加じゃナイ方が良いかもしれませんね。

I went parasailing for the first time in Hawaii, and it was fantastic.
I chose the standard plan, and the view of Waikiki from above was great, with a very pleasant breeze.
Since you'll be in the sun, it might be better to go early in the morning or in the evening.
The staff was very accommodating, and I had a great time.
