Hawaii
This excursion was fun, but staff at office was very rude. Acted like we were a burden to even help. Very short and snobby. Especially blonde lady. No one even smiled at us. I have never been on an excursion so unorganized and unfriendly. Our guide was nice enough, but no instructions for snorkeling. My sister had never snorkeled and he just gave us our masks and left us to snorkel on our own while he went spear fishing. As we were kayaking he got way ahead and never stopped and checked on the group. I was very disappointed. I have been on several excursions and the staff has always been wonderful, but not this one. I would NOT recommend this company to anyone!!!!!
We surprised our 10 year old son with surfing lessons on our recent trip to Maui. He was so excited when he finally found out what we were doing.
When we finally found Goofy Foot they were already getting people suited up and checked in. It is a little difficult to find, but worth the search. (Just so you know, it's past the school in a small shopping center on Front Street in Lahaina. Not in the main shopping district).
We checked in and they got him all suited up, he was the only kid that morning. They have small groups, only five people per instructor. They also have a photographer, $20 for 20 pictures. The pictures were good, not fantastic, but the price was great and we have a few really good ones.
The photographer took everyone down to the beach and gave them a lesson in hamming it up for the camera. Then the instructor came down and the lesson started.
They learned all the moves to get up, stay up, speed up and slow down on the sand before moving the board
We participated with two adults and two children. Despite taking motion sickness medication, the older child got seasick due to the strong rocking of the boat. Since the younger child is in the second grade and small, we ended up flying as a group of four, which was a pleasant surprise as I didn't expect our family of four to be able to fly together. It became a great memory.
大人2名子供2名で参加しました。船の揺れがすごく乗り物酔いの薬を飲んでいたにもかかわらず上の子が酔ってしまいました。
下の子が小学2年生で小さかったためか4人で飛ぶことになり、家族4人いっしょに飛べるとは思っていなかったのでよかったです。いい思い出になりました。
It was mine and my parents' first time sailing and it was amazing and so fun. We got to see the beautiful blue ocean water and the sun was shining, and I would reccomend it! Worth the price.
I encountered wild dolphins. They jumped nearby and came as close as a few meters. The snacks were great, and the pineapple was very delicious. Since I was staying at the Sheraton Keauhou Bay, the meeting point was very close (about a 3-5 minute walk). You land on the rocks, so if you have marine boots, it's better to wear them. (If you don't have them, they will lend you a pair.)
野生のイルカに遭遇しました。
近くでジャンプをしたり、数メートルくらいまで近づいてきました。
スナック付きで、パイナップルがとてもおいしかったです。
シェラトンケアウホウベイに宿泊していたので、待ち合わせ場所もすぐ近くでした。(徒歩3-5分)
岩の上に上陸するので、マリンブーツを持っているなら履いていったほうが良いです。(ない場合は、貸してくれます。)
I usually work at a desk and my body is on the verge of being overweight. I don't exercise on my days off, and I wasn't particularly good at sports when I was younger.
At 41, I decided to challenge myself and try surfing. Thanks to the buoyant board and clear instructions, I was able to ride the waves. Of course, I didn't succeed every time.
I tend to focus on appearances, so I was tempted to ride a cool board, but I realized I needed to enjoy the thrill of catching waves first. My overall impression? It was fun (especially when I managed to ride).
There were mostly foreigners, but they gathered some Japanese people and taught us in broken Japanese, which was actually simple and easy to understand. Be prepared for tired arms from paddling back to shore after each ride. The next day, my whole body was in pain!
普段はデスクワーク。体はメタボ寸前。休みに運動するでなく、若いころは運動が得意。というわけでもなく。
こんな僕が、41歳にしてサーフィンにチャレンジ。
浮力が大きなボードと判りやすいレクチャーのおかげで、波に乗ることができました。
もちろん、100発100中ではないですが。
格好から入りがちな僕は、カッコいいボードに乗ってみたい気もしましたが、まずは波に乗る楽しさを味合わないことには始りませんからね。
感想は、楽しいですよ。(乗れた時はね)
外国人が半分以上でしたが、日本人を集めてくれて、片言の日本語で教えてくれます。逆にシンプルで判り易かったです。
乗っては沖に戻るので、水を掻く腕が疲れることは覚悟が必要です。翌日、体中に痛みが!!!!!
I participated in the afternoon on the day of arrival on a JAL flight that landed in the morning. We went from in front of the Hilton Hotel to near Diamond Head and came back, enjoying the view of the ocean and the pleasant sea breeze, which made me really feel like I was in Hawaii. My excitement was high from the very first day.
I've heard that surprisingly many people come to Hawaii and don't even touch the ocean because they're busy shopping. That's why I recommend experiencing it during your free time on the first day.
JAL便 午前着便で到着日の 午後に参加しました
ヒルトンホテル前から ダイヤモンドヘッド近くまで行き
戻ってきましたが 海からの眺めと 気持ち良い
海風で ハワイに来た実感が 湧き出てきて
初日から テンション高くなります
案外 ハワイに来ても 海に触れない人は 多いと聞きますショッピングに 忙しいのだそうです
だから 初日の 空いた時間に 体験するのがおすすめです
We participated as a family.
My husband and our fourth-grade son challenged themselves with the lowest height of 45 meters. Although both of them are afraid of heights, they mentioned that the parasailing itself was stable, and they felt they could have gone higher. I stayed behind with my kindergarten daughter on the lower boat.
Perhaps because my husband and son's combined weight was insufficient, we ended up sharing a ride with a couple who were waiting for their turn, so we flew together as a group of four. We didn't mind, but since the couple seemed to be on their honeymoon, I felt a bit sorry for them...
I was worried about the language barrier, but the staff on the boat and during the transfer were very cheerful, and they occasionally spoke some simple Japanese, so I didn't have too much to worry about. Even if I didn't need to express myself, as long as I could understand what they were saying, it was fine. The driver was particularly lively and seemed to love saying "Hee-Haw!!" like the Japanese comedian Black Mayonnaise, which was very entertaining.
I was recording with a video camera, so I couldn't take photos, but the staff took some humorous pictures for us. They provided them on a memory card for $30, and I recommend buying it.
I wasn't sure about the tipping norms, but I gave the boat staff $20 just in case. I wasn't sure if the driver needed a tip, so I ended up getting off without giving anything.
I read that it’s better to take motion sickness medication, so I prepared some from Japan for the whole family. Thanks to that, even though the boat swayed quite a bit, we were fine and didn't feel sick. A foreign woman who was riding with us felt unwell during the ride, so it might be a good idea to take the medication.
The two who flew said they had a lot of fun! We made wonderful memories. Thank you very much.
ファミリーで参加しました。
主人と小4の息子が一番低い高さ45メートルのものに挑戦。
高所恐怖症な二人でしたが、パラセイリングそのものは安定しているので、もっと高くてもよかったなぁと言っていました。
私は幼稚園の娘と一緒に下のボートでお留守番。
主人と息子の合計体重が足りなかったせいか、途中で、次の番を待っていたカップルと相乗りで4人で飛ぶことになってしまいました。
私たちは別にかまわなかったのですが、カップルさんのほうは新婚旅行のようだったので、なんとなく申し訳ない気になってしまいました…。
心配していた英語ですが、送迎もボート上のお兄さんたちもとても明るくて、カタコトでもわかる日本語をたまに話してくれたので、あまり心配なかったです。
こちらから意志することが必要なくても、向こうの言っていることがわかれば、問題ないかな…。
特に送迎のおっちゃんはノリがよくて、日本の芸人ブラマヨの「ヒーハー!!」がお気に入りのようで、そればっかり言って、とても面白かったです。
私は下でビデオカメラを回していたので、写真を撮ることができなかったのですが、スタッフのお兄さんたちがユーモアある写真を撮影してくれました。
メモリーカードでくれるので、30ドルしますが、これは買っておいたほうがおすすめです~。
チップの相場がわからなかったのですが、ボートのお兄さんには一応、20ドル渡しました…。
ドライバーのおっちゃんにも必要なのか??とわからなかったのですが、そのまま何も渡さずに降りてしまいました。
酔い止めを飲んでおいたほうがいいと、ここにも書いてあったので、日本から用意しておいた薬を家族全員飲んでおきました。そのおかげかボートはだいぶ揺れましたが、酔い知らずで大丈夫でした。
同乗していた外国人の女性が途中で具合悪くしていたので、やっぱり薬は飲んでおいたほうがいいかもです。
飛んだ二人はとても楽しかった!と言っていました。
楽しい思い出ができました。ありがとうございました。
It was my first time kayaking, but thanks to Nino's careful instruction, I was able to paddle in the ocean with peace of mind. I experienced a sense of liberation and refreshment that I had never felt before.
There was a bit of a struggle with steering, leading to a mini battle between my child and me, but that was also quite fun. I got so into kayaking that I even wanted my own kayak.
The underwater scenery while snorkeling was captivating, resembling a dragon palace, but unfortunately, I got seasick and had to get back on the kayak midway. (I apologize for that, especially since Kevin found the best spot for us...) I am very grateful to Kevin and Nino for their constant encouragement and thoughtful care.
The kids mentioned that they were disappointed we didn't encounter dolphins or sea turtles and that we couldn't experience cliff diving, but instead, we were able to feel the great outdoors, which became a wonderful summer memory. (I believe the decision to skip cliff diving was made out of concern for my health.)
I was very thankful to receive the photos for free after returning home. If the opportunity arises, I would love to participate again.
初めてのカヤックでしたが、ニノさんが丁寧に教えてくれたお蔭で安心して海で漕ぐ事ができました。
今まで経験した事のない解放感と爽快感を味わえました。
若干、舵取りがうまくいかず親子でプチバトルがありましたが、それも何かと楽しいものでした。
myカヤックが欲しくなったくらいカヤックにはまってしまいました。
シュノーケリングをした海底は、まるで竜宮城のような景色で魅了されましたが、私だけ波酔いをしてしまい途中でカヤックに乗ってしまいました。
(せっかくケビンさんがベストスポットを探してくれたのにすみませんでした…)
ケビンさんとニノさんには、何度も声掛けをして頂き、細かな気遣いをしてくれた事を大変感謝しております。
イルカとホヌに出会えなかった事と、崖からのダイビングが体験できなかった事が残念だったと子供達は言ってましたが代わりに大自然を肌で感じる事が出来大変良い夏の思い出となりました。(崖のダイビングは私の体調不良を気遣ってくれての事だと思います)
帰国後に無料でお写真を送って頂けたのはとてもありがたく思いました。
機会がありましたら、また参加したいと思います。
This was my first time booking an optional tour without going through a travel agency, and I was worried about whether they would really come to pick me up and if my reservation was confirmed. However, they arrived on time, which put my mind at ease.
As for the experience itself, I believe anyone, even those with a fear of heights, can enjoy it. I have a fear of heights, but I wasn't scared at all! Just at the beginning, when taking off from the cruiser, I felt a bit of fear. (It seemed like everyone taking off was shouting "WAO!!" as they went, haha.) But even those who were scared ended up coming back with smiles.
They offer to take photos for $30. I didn't request any, but I regret not doing so as it would have made a nice keepsake.
Almost no Japanese was spoken. Most of the explanations were in English, which left me a bit confused, but I managed to get by with the atmosphere.
The cruiser sways quite a bit as it goes out to sea. I took motion sickness medication beforehand, so I had no issues, but a friend who joined me doesn't usually get motion sickness and didn't take any, so they ended up feeling sick.
It was a really fun time. I would love to participate again if I have the chance.
旅行社を通さずにオプショナルツアーを申し込んだのは初めてで、お迎えにちゃんと来てくれるのか、本当にちゃんと申し込めているのか不安でしたが、時間通りにお迎えに来ていただけたので、安心できました。
肝心の内容は、高所恐怖症の人でも問題なく誰でも楽しめると思います。
私は、高所恐怖症なのですが、全然怖くありませんでした♪ただ、初めのクルーザーから飛び立つ時は、少々の恐怖を感じます。(飛び立つ人全員がWAO!!って飛び立って言ってたような笑) だけどそんな人も最後は笑顔で帰ってきました。
30ドルで写真撮ってくれます。
私は頼まなかったのですが、記念になるので頼んでおいたほうがよかったと後悔しています。
日本語がほとんど通じません。説明もほとんど英語なので、ん?となりましたが、雰囲気で何とかなりました。
クルーザーで沖まで出るのでよく揺れます。
私は酔い止めを飲んで行ったので全然問題なかったのですが、一緒に参加した友人は乗り物酔いをあまりしないらしく酔い止めを飲んで行かなかったので、酔っていました。
すごく楽しい時間でした。機会があればまた参加したいです。
We participated in a deserted island tour at Kailua Beach with our family.
I had many concerns about whether my parents in their 60s could handle a tandem kayak, but the distance was just right... It turned out to be great exercise and satisfied our curiosity, resulting in a wonderful experience. For those who feel that just sightseeing or spending time on the beach isn't enough, I think this tour is perfect.
Our guide, Chris, was very kind and shared Hawaiian folklore and stories about nature during the deserted island tour. I fell even more in love with Hawaii.
In addition to the tour, you can also rent snorkeling gear and stand-up paddleboarding equipment, making it highly recommended for those who want to fully enjoy Lanikai and Kailua Beach.
カイルアビーチの無人島ツアーに家族で参加してきました。
60代の両親に、カヤック二人乗りは無理なのでは!!!という不安も多々ありましたが、距離感も丁度よく。。。いい運動に、好奇心も満たされ、◎の結果です。観光だけでは、もの足りない。。。ビーチで過ごすだけでは、という方々にピッタリかと思います。
ガイドのクリスさんも大変親切で、無人島ツアーで聞けるハワイの民話に大自然の話し。より一層ハワイが好きになりました。
ツアー意外でも、シュノーケルグッズやスタンドアップサーフィンなどのビーチ用品もレンタルできるので、ラニカイ・カイルアビーチを堪能したい人におススメです。
There is a Japanese guide available, so it's reassuring to have someone who speaks Japanese. It would have been better if the shuttle bus driver spoke Japanese as well.
The operation of the kayak and paddling is manageable. However, we practiced on the river before moving to the sea, and you need strength to carry or pull the kayak. If you're a woman alone, it can be quite challenging.
Once you start paddling out to sea, it surprisingly moves along well. The sea is beautiful, and the view is fantastic. However, it's advisable to use sunscreen properly, as you can get quite sunburned.
日本人ガイドもおり、日本語を話せるガイドがいるので安心です。送迎バスの運転手が日本語を話せるとよりよかったのですが。
カヤックの操作、パドリングはなんとかなるものです。
ただ川で一度練習してから海へ移動したのですが、
カヤックを持つあるいは引く筋力が必要です。
女性一人ですと結構苦労します。
一度海へ漕ぎ出すと意外と進んでくれます。
海はきれいですし、眺めも最高。
ただし、日焼け止めはきちんとしたほうがいいです。
かなり焼けます。
I wanted to do kayaking and my wife wanted us to do that in a two-man boat, which was fine with me. But then she chickened out at the last second and I had to kayak a two-man boat by myself. It was hard and embarassing and the situation sucked.
Despite that, I had a great time. My guide was very understanding of the situation and helped me along the whole way. My group kayaked to a small island a quarter-mile out to sea and he gave us a small tour. Interesting stuff.
When we came back, the manager gave us a partial refund on my wife's payment because she was in the boat for less than five minutes.
It was a good time. If you go to this place, ask for either Matt or Mark (can't remember). He's an orange-haired dude who wears a Gilligan hat.
I chose to go to the Waimea Falls and Botanical Garden and on the Kayak ride...also got to lay around on Waimea Beach and jump off the rock! I had a total blast. The driver/guide was knowledgable and friendly and made sure we all had a great time. I would recommend this to anyone.
I was really excited to go to Hawaii, but I ended up feeling seasick due to lack of sleep and not feeling well. The waves were really strong, so it's definitely better to take anti-seasickness medication before going! The parasailing itself was a lot of fun, and the view from above was amazing! It does cost money, but we were able to buy the photos of ourselves up in the air, and it turned out to be a wonderful memory!
ハワイにいくからには!と意気込んでいったものの、
睡眠不足と体調不良で船酔いしてしまいました。
揺れも凄いので、絶対酔いとめ薬飲んでいったほうがいいです!!
パラセイリング自体はすごく楽しく、上からの眺めも最高でした!!
お金かかりますが、自分達が上空にいる写真のデータも買うことができるので、購入しましたが、とても良い思いでになりました!!!
Our 2 teenagers loved it. The experience is so much fun! The staff was friendly and curtious. I would definitely recommend this activity.
This was my first time parasailing, i was terrified. The crew memebers were friendly, and patient with us(i wasnt listening very well because i was scared). They set us up, explained, and helped out with everything. i switched my ride from 400ft to 800ft before i went on, and they set us up, and even pulled us down when i yelled for them to.
It was a good experience, even though i was terrified. Also, they took tons of pictures while people were up there, and i really liked the fact you got your SD card.
For those who have never scuba dived this is a good introduction. Water was a little choppy, but staff were great in explaining what you could and couldn't do and where you could and couldn't go. For those that suffer from sea sickness should definitely take something before going, but all in all a good 1/2 day tour to do

First of all, I felt anxious that I didn't receive any emails other than the automated reply, so I called the local office, but there was no staff who could speak Japanese, so I couldn't confirm my reservation. However, later I received a call from this site and an email confirming my reservation, which relieved me.
There was no particular communication on-site either (I received a call from another company I booked through this site), but the staff arrived a little late for the scheduled pickup.
Initially, I had requested a female instructor when making the reservation, but a male instructor showed up.
It was clearly stated that there might be cases where my request could not be accommodated.
However, I felt that it was inconsiderate of them to send a male staff member who couldn't speak Japanese, especially since they knew I could only speak Japanese when I called in advance.
I was drawn to the words "Japanese is fine. Female instructor." when making the reservation, but this response was far from satisfactory.
まず、自動返信以外のサンクスメール等がこないことに不安を感じてこちらから現地に電話したが日本語が通じるスタッフがいなかったので予約確認が出来なかったが、後ほどこのサイトから電話があったこと、予約確認が取れている旨のメールが来たので一安心。
現地でも特になんの連絡も無かったが(このサイトで予約した他の会社からは電話がきた)当日の時間にちょい遅れでスタッフがピックアップに。
まず今回予約の時点で女性インストラクターを希望していたのに男性がくる。
これは希望に添えない場合もあると明記されていた。
しかし事前に電話した際に日本語しか話せないことがわかっているのにも関わらず日本語が話せない、しかも希望とは違う男性スタッフとは、こちらのことを全く考えていないと感じました。
日本語で大丈夫。女性インストラクター。の言葉に惹かれて予約したのにこの対応ではとても満足できるものではありません。
Thank you for participating in the Girls Who Surf lesson. We apologize for not being able to arrange a Japanese-speaking female instructor as you requested. As stated on the activity page, please understand that depending on availability, there may be instances like this where the lesson is conducted in English with a male instructor. We will continue to strive to accommodate customer requests as much as possible. Thank you for your valuable feedback.
ガールズ・フー・サーフのレッスンにご参加いただきありがとうございます。
この度はお客様のご希望であった、日本語・女性インストラクターのお手配ができず申し訳ございませんでした。アクティビティページでもご案内しておりますとおり、予約状況により今回のように英語でのレッスン、男性インストラクターによるレッスンとなる場合もございますことご了承ください。今後も、可能な限りお客様からのリクエストへお応えできるよう努めて参ります。貴重なご意見をお寄せいただきありがとうございました。
Since I was in Hawaii, I wanted to have some great photos taken by a professional...
While searching, I found this plan with Jason.
From the confirmation email after booking, the phone call upon arrival in Hawaii, to the staff's response on the day, and above all, Jason's personality and talent as a photographer were truly wonderful!
I can confidently recommend this!
せっかくのハワイだからイイ写真をプロに撮ってほしくて・・・
探していたところ見つけたのがジェイソンに撮ってもらうこのプラン。
予約後の確認メールからハワイ到着後の電話、当日のスタッフの対応、なによりジェイソン自身の人柄、カメラマンとしての才能がとても素晴らしかったです!
自信を持ってお勧めできます!
それは素晴らしかったです。
it was awesome.
My wife and I went Jet Skiing for the first time ever and had a blast! Decent price and they have high quality waterproof cameras on the skiis but charge extra if you want a copy of photos or video. So bring extra money if you plan to buy a copy but thats optional. The staff was very nice especially the captain of the boat that drove us to the activity barge, he was telling jokes the whole way. Over all, I would recommend this activity to a friend.
All the guides are advanced Japanese speakers, so there's no need to worry at all if you can't speak any English. After a very clear explanation of how to kayak, paddle, and some precautions, we headed straight to the sea. It was incredibly refreshing.
Everyone else in my group felt a bit seasick, but as soon as we started snorkeling, it seemed to go away. The guide suggested that when you're not feeling well, it's better to get into the water, and once I did, I felt much better right away. I was amazed by the power of nature.
Moreover, guides Kevin and Noni were attentive to our condition and well-being, which made it easy to participate with peace of mind. I think even elderly people can manage this activity without any issues.
The pineapple we ate on the kayak was incredibly delicious. I thought I had never tasted such a delicious fruit before. They also prepared juice, tea, and muffins.
I thought it would be difficult to take photos on the water, but the guide took pictures for us and sent them to our PCs after we returned home, all for free. It was such a delightful service. I must say, the photos turned out great.
This tour is full of hospitality. I highly recommend participating!
ガイドさんは皆、上級の日本語話者なので、英語が全くしゃべれなくても、全く心配いりません。カヤックの乗り方、こぎ方、注意事項をとてもわかりやすい説明の後、早速海へ。
素晴らしく爽快な気分になれました。
私以外、一緒に行った人皆、少し船酔いぎみでしたが、シュノーケルを始めた途端、治ったようです。気分が優れないときは、海に入った方が良いとガイドさんに言われ、入ったら、すぐに良くなったみたいです。大自然の力ってすごいなと思いました。
それに、ガイドのケビンさんも、ノニさんも、こちらの体調や様子をよく見てくださっていて、安心して参加できました。
高齢者の方でも十分いけると思います。
カヤックの上で食べたパイナップルは、最高に美味しかったです。こんなに美味しい果物は食べたことないと思ったほどです。他にも、ジュースやお茶やマフィンなど用意してありました。
海の上ではなかなか写真を撮れないと思っていましたが、ガイドさんが、ちゃんと撮って帰国後、PCに送ってくださいます。もちろん、無料で。とってもうれしいサービスです。自分で言うのもなんですが、かっこよく撮れてました。
ホスピタリティー溢れるツアーです。ぜひ、参加してみてください。
My granddaughter (14 yrs old) and I did this kayak snorkeling trip last month (July 27, 2012) and thoroughly enjoyed the experience! We had never kayaked before but had snorkled quite a few times over on Oahu. Our group of 11 included both experienced and novice kayakers. The guides (especially Brent) were helpful, knowledgeable, friendly and especially patient with us newbies. Water visibility was fantastic. We saw an abundance of different fish when we stopped to snorkel and were lucky enough to have a pod of dolphins come within 15 feet of us. That alone made the experience memorable. Water bottles were provided on the kayaks and when we stopped we snacked on drinks, chips and fresh delicious pineapple. I would strongly recommend wearing water shoes/sandals in order to be able to easily climb up to the lava cliff to make the jump. Would I do this snorkeling trip again? In a heartbeat!!!
I decided on this option after seeing the photo of two people side by side. There were a total of seven participants: two elementary school students and five adults, along with another group of four Japanese families on board. At first, the two elementary school students and one adult flew together. I was impressed that three people could sit side by side, and the view from above was refreshing. I thought the remaining two adults would fly in pairs for two more turns, but unexpectedly, four of us flew together: three adults and one more person behind. The person in the back hardly had their face captured in the photo that was taken, and the view was said to be poor. Even though the wind conditions were the same, the next family that flew consisted of one average-sized adult and one child, and they flew in two separate turns. I felt quite disappointed.
横並びの2人乗りの写真をみてこちらに決めました。小学生二人と大人5人、計7人の参加、他には日本人の親子連れ4人の乗船でした。最初は小学生2人と大人1人で飛びました。3人横並びもできるんだ、と感心しながら上からの眺めは爽快、そして次は残る大人2人ずつ2回だろう思っていたら、なんと大人3人とその後ろにもう1人の4人で。後ろの1人はせっかくとってっもらった写真にもほとんど顔は写っていないし、眺めも悪かったそうです。風の様子は同じだったのに、次にとんだもう一組の家族連れは普通体型の大人1人と子供1人ずつで2回にわけて飛んでました。かなり残念に思いました。
I got a call ahead of time to confirm my reservations, which was reassuring. The office staff was friendly and helpful. The parasailing experience was great. My wife and son were a bit apprehensive at first, but all went well. The two people running the boat operation were experienced and kept everything running smoothly.
We've been to Hawaii several times, but this is the first time we canoe surfed. This was such a fun activity, and since we purchased it on sale, the value was great! The men who guided us were so nice! They were so friendly and knowledgeable. Not only was it fun, but extremely interesting. They told us a lot of history about outrigger canoeing. The tour was supposed to be a half an hour, but lasted about an hour. Just a heads up you will paddle so there is a bit of exercise (nothing outlandish). Also, if you get sea sick you may want to take Dramamine, since you have to wait for waves just floating there. I would love to do this again!!
This was by far our favorite activity on our Hawaiian vacation. We would do it again in a heartbeat.
I was worried until the day before, thinking it might be scary, and the pick-up car took a while to arrive, but the staff were cheerful and seemed to be having fun, which put me at ease. I felt nervous when taking off into the sky, but the view from above was exceptional, making it a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I wish I had applied sunscreen more thoroughly.
前日まで、恐くないか心配でしたし、迎えの車がなかなか来なかったのですが、スタッフの方が明るく、楽しそうにしているので安心しました。
空に飛び上がる時は緊張しましたが、空からの景色は格別で、またとない体験になりました。
日焼け止めはもっとしっかり塗っておけば良かったです。
