All Reviews for Parasailing Tours

The hotel sent a trolley to pick us up (10 minutes earlier than the scheduled time). Once we boarded, we were instructed to sign a consent form right away. When we arrived at the reception and showed our voucher, we received our tickets.

The only other passengers on the same boat were a pair of girls, a group of three men and one woman, and a mother with a boy who looked to be in elementary school; we were the only Japanese people.

We set off a little way out to sea. It was quite rocky, but since I had taken motion sickness medication 30 minutes prior, I had no issues at all. We jumped two at a time. Without standing up, we shifted slightly in our seats, and when it was our turn, we were fitted with harnesses and life jackets and moved to the back of the boat.

We were cautioned not to stretch our legs while flying. As we gradually ascended, it felt more like being on a swing, so it wasn't very scary. Instead, I was captivated by the deep blue of the sea and the beautiful scenery.

The instructions mentioned that if we wanted the staff to take photos, we should ask, but I missed the timing and didn't get to request it (there was no pressure to buy). I hoped for a dry landing, but I ended up getting quite wet.

Although it was a tour my husband wanted to participate in, I’m glad I took the challenge.

ホテルにはトロリーが迎えに来てくれました。（時間よりも10分早かったです。）
乗車するとすぐに同意書にサインするようにとのことでした。
受付に着いてバウチャーを見せるとチケットをもらいました。
同じ船に乗ったのは2人組の女の子、男3女1のグループ、お母さんと小学生くらいの男の子で、日本人は私たちだけでした。
船に乗って少し沖に出ました。結構揺れましたが、30分前に酔い止めを飲んでいたので、全く問題ありませんでした。
1度に2人ずつ飛びました。立ち上がらずに座ったまま少しずつずれて、私たちの番になるとハーネスとライフジャケットをつけてもらい、船の後方に移動しました。
飛んでいるときは足を伸ばさないようにと注意されました。
少しずつ高くなっていくので、ブランコに乗っているようであまり怖くありませんでした。
それよりも海の青さと景色のよさに目を奪われました。
写真をスタッフに取ってほしい場合は言うようにと説明書に書いてありましたが、タイミングがわからずに頼みそびれてしまいました。（＝押し売りはありません。）
ドライランディングを希望しましたが、結構濡れました。
夫の希望で参加したツアーでしたが、チャレンジしてみてよかったです。

It was my second time parasailing, but since there was quite a gap since the last time, I was a bit nervous while waiting. Floating in the sky while looking at the sea is such a great feeling. It goes quite high, so looking down at the ocean was a little scary.

２度目のパラセーリングでしたが、前回とだいぶ間があいたので待っている間緊張していました。海を眺めながら空に浮いているのがとても快感です。かなり高いところまであがるので海を見ているとちょっと怖かったです。

It was very pleasant!
The pick-up was delayed by 30 minutes, and we received a call from the hotel.
The staff primarily spoke English, but they communicated the basics in Japanese.
In our group, there were no other Japanese people, and everyone was having a great time speaking in English.
I forgot to take motion sickness medication, but I thought I could manage. However, it was really bumpy, and I got quite nauseous...
For those who are sensitive, it's best to sit at the back. And definitely take motion sickness medication (laughs).

とっても気持ちよかった！
pick upは30分遅れてホテルから連絡をしてもらいました。
スタッフの方たちの説明は基本英語。最低限のことは日本語で話してくれます。
私たちの回は私たち以外日本人はおらず皆さんで英語で盛り上がってました。楽しそうだった。
酔い止めを忘れてしまったけれども　何とかなるだろうとおもっていましたが
すっごい揺れでかなり酔いました。。。
弱い方はとりあえず後方に乗りましょう。そして酔い止めは飲みましょう（苦笑）

It was fun. However, the wind was strong, and the boat rocked quite a bit, so those who are prone to seasickness might want to take motion sickness medication in advance... A friend of mine ended up throwing up along the way.

When we landed, the person in front of me was fine with their feet touching the ground, so I kept my glasses on, but I ended up getting splashed with seawater and lost my glasses. (It's better to take off your glasses.)

Seeing Diamond Head from the sky was a wonderful memory of Hawaii.

楽しかったです。ただ、風が強く、結構船が揺れたので、船に酔いやすい人は事前に酔い止めを服用しておいたほうがいいかも・・・・。友人は途中で吐いてしまいました。
着地のとき、前の人は足がつかるくらいだったので大丈夫と、メガネ着用のまましたのですが、頭から海水かぶって、メガネさらわれてしまいました。（メガネははずしたほうがいいですね）
空から見るダイアモンドヘッド。楽しいハワイの思い出です。

The distance from Waikiki is almost negligible, and the location is near Hilton Village.

It felt really good! The photo opportunity was also great! We definitely couldn't have taken those ourselves.

Since the location is close, if there’s a discount without transportation, that might be fine too.

This is definitely something you should do!

ワイキキからの異動距離もほぼなく、
場所はヒルトン村の近くです。

とにかく気持ち良かった！
写真のOPもGOOD！
自分達じゃ絶対取れないしね。

場所が近いから送迎なしで
割引あるならそれでもいいかも。

これは絶対やったほうがよい！

While flying in the sky, I was able to go parasailing in a truly beautiful miracle, surrounded by a stunning turquoise blue sea and a beautiful sky that spread out before me, as if I were watching a composite image. I was very moved.♡

空を飛んでる時、ターコイズブルーのきれいな海と、綺麗な空が一面に広がって、合成映像をみているかのような、本当に綺麗な奇跡の中をパラセーリングすることができてとても感動しました♡

Parasailing was my first experience, and even though I can't speak English, it was not difficult at all and I had a lot of fun. The view from the sky was amazing. It was 150 meters high, but I couldn't really tell how high it was while flying. Before taking off, the guide asked if I wanted to take pictures. I hesitated for a moment at $30, but I'm glad I asked for it! They took a lot of pictures while we were flying, including some of the scenery, which made for great memories.

パラセイリングは初めてで英語も話せませんが、難しいことは何もなくとても楽しめました。
空から見る景色は素晴らしかったです。
１５０メートルでしたが高さについては飛んでいるとよくわかりませんでした。
飛び立つ前にガイドの方が写真をとるか尋ねてこられました。
＄30で一瞬迷いましたがお願いしてよかったです笑
飛んでいる最中の写真をたくさんとってもらえ景色の写真もあり、いい思い出になりました。

Waving goodbye to the gradually shrinking boat, I felt like I had the views of Waikiki, the sky, and the sea all to myself—it was the best! In the end, I had a charming little splash landing on my backside, which made me feel like a bird, and I was completely satisfied. The lovely broken English guide from the driver who picked us up was also enjoyable.

段々と小さくなるボートに手を振りながらワイキキの景色も空も海もひとりじめした気分で最高でした
最後はお尻だけチャプンと着水のご愛嬌も鳥になった気分で大満足
お迎えのドライバーさんのステキな片言ガイドも楽しかった

I was a little scared when taking off from the boat, but once in the air, it felt great with hardly any turbulence! When landing, they lowered us down to just above the water's surface (on purpose?) before bringing us back to the boat, which was thrilling and fun! One thing I regret is not asking the staff to take pictures, so I don't have any photos from the flight. They are very considerate and don't take photos and sell them without asking, so it seems you need to request it. If you want pictures, it's best to ask in advance! Still, it was a lot of fun, so I highly recommend it!

船から飛び立つ時は少し怖かったですが上空では揺れもあまりなくて気持ちが良かったです！降りる時は（わざと？）海面に足が触れるくらいまで下げてから船に降ろしてくれるのも迫力があって楽しかったです！1つ残念だったのが写真をスタッフの方にお願いしそびれて飛んでいる時の写真が無かったこと。良心的で勝手に写真を撮って売りつける様な事はしないので、お願いしないと撮ってくれないみたいです（苦笑）写真がほしい方は事前にお願いした方が良いですよ！それでもとても楽しかったのでおすすめです♪

First of all, a pickup came to the trolley stop near the hotel, making it easy to get around, and they also dropped us back at the hotel. It was my first experience with parasailing, and I felt a bit anxious at first, but once I was up in the air, all my worries disappeared. The view from above was incredibly beautiful, and the wind while being pulled by the boat was amazing. I could see Waikiki, downtown, and Diamond Head all at once, and the feeling of having that stunning view all to myself was truly luxurious! The parasailing lasted about 10 minutes, and there were two handsome guys on the boat who made the atmosphere really fun, which made it a great experience. They also took photos during the parasailing and on the boat, and although it cost $30, I was able to capture those wonderful memories. This experience made me want to try various water activities like parasailing again when I come back to Hawaii! Thank you very much!

まずは、ホテル近くのトローリー乗り場までお迎えが来てくれたので、簡単に移動ができ、帰りもホテルまで送ってくれました。パラセーリングの経験は初めてで、最初は不安な気持ちもありましたが、いざ自分が上空へ行ってみると不安だった気持ちは全くなくなりました。上空からの景色はとても綺麗で船に引っ張られながら感じる風は最高でした。また、景色はワイキキやダウンタウン、ダイヤモンドヘッドまでが一望でき、完全に独り占め状態の景色はすごく豪華なものでした！！約10分くらいのパラセーリングですが、船の上ではイケメン2人が楽しく雰囲気を盛り上げてくれ、とても楽しかったです。また、パラセーリング中や船の上での写真も撮ってくれ、30ドルのお金はかかるものの、楽しい思い出を形に残すこともできました。次にハワイへ来た時にもパラセーリングなどの海でのアクティビティーをいろいろとしたくなるような体験ができました！！ありがとうございました！！

I went parasailing yesterday! It was my second time in two years, and the height was thrilling and fun. The crew was also very lively!

However, they were 20 minutes late picking us up, and we had to wait about 30 minutes after arriving.

So, if you want to book another activity or restaurant next time, I think it's best to allow for some extra time.

昨日パラセーリングしてきました！
2年振り2回目ということで高さもあり楽しかったです。
クルーの方もノリが良かったです！

しかし、迎えに来るのが20分遅かったり、着いてからも30分くらい待ちました。

なので、次に別のアクティビティーやレストランを予約したい場合は、ある程度余裕を持った方がいいと思います。

This was an amazing experience!! It was my first time para-sailing and it was awesome!! If you haven't tried it, I tell you, go for it!! :) I loved it!!

This parasail experience was great from start to finish. They picked us up at our hotel promptly, our driver was very fun and knowledgeable about the island. Parasailing gives you just the right amount of adrenaline and once you're up there it's so relaxing. I got to go twice! And next time I visit Hawaii I will definitely do it again! Once we were done we got our pictures and crossed the street to the beach :)

There is a pickup service from Waikiki Beach.
After checking in, you board the boat, listen to the instructor's explanation, and put on your life jacket.
As you rise quickly, the ocean spreads out below you!
If you don't want to get wet, you can return without getting wet.
It was so much fun and went by in no time!

ワイキキビーチから送迎あり。
受付をして船に乗り、インストラクターの説明を聞き、ライフジャケット着用。
一気に上がると下は一面海！
水に濡れたくないといえば、濡れずに戻ってこられます。
すごく楽しくてあっという間でした！

I have a slight fear of heights, and I was quite nervous before getting on. However, the cool instructor explained everything carefully, which made me feel a bit more at ease. The explanation was in English, but there were parts that were easy to understand in Japanese.

The day of the experience was relatively windy, but the boat didn't sway much. After putting on the gear, I scooted to the back of the boat, and we were all set! Once we lifted off, it surprisingly wasn't that scary, and I was able to enjoy the view!

While we were up there, I felt like a bird♪ Since we went up in pairs, it’s perfect for couples! You can see the high-rise buildings of the hotel district all the way to Diamond Head, and the blue horizon and sky were absolutely beautiful!

At times, there was a little trick where my feet would touch the sea, but it actually felt nice♪ If you don’t want to get wet, just let them know before you go up, and they’ll make sure you stay dry from start to finish.

I didn’t have the courage to let go, so I left my waterproof camera on the boat, but I regretted a bit that I could have taken pictures when we were up there... (laughs) The instructor took photos with a zoom lens, and there’s also an option to have a video taken. Both require an additional fee to receive the data. While waiting on the boat, I wasn’t bored at all; I watched the experiences of other participants and enjoyed the scenery.

Overall, it was a very satisfying program!

プチ高所恐怖症で、乗る前は結構ドキドキしていました。ですが、インストラクターのかっこいいお兄さんに丁寧に説明してもらい、ちょっと安心。説明は英語でしたが、ところどころ日本語で分かりやすかったです。
体験した日は比較的、風が強い日でしたが、ボートはそんなに揺れませんでした。装備を装着し、ボートの後ろの方へ座りながらずりずり移動し、準備万端！ふわっと上がって、上がってしまったら意外に怖くなく、景色も楽しめました！
上がっている間は鳥になった気分♪ペアで上がるのでカップルにはぴったりですよ！ホテルの高い建物が並ぶビル群からダイヤモンドヘッドまでが一望でき、青く広がる水平線と空がとてもキレイでした！
時々、足が海につかるイタズラ?をされましたが、それすら気持ちいい♪濡れたくない人は上がる前に言っておけば、始めから最後まで濡れないようにしてくれます。
私は手を離す勇気がなかったので、防水のカメラをボートにおいて体験しましたが、上がった時に頑張れば写真撮れたな···とちょっと後悔(笑)インストラクターのお兄さんが望遠で写真撮ってくれますし、さらにオプションでビデオも撮れます。どちらもデータをもらうのに別料金が必要ですが。ボートで待っている間も、他の参加者の体験見たり、景色を眺めたりで退屈しませんでした。
こんな感じで、体験して大満足のプログラムでした！

Parasailing was my first experience, and since I don't understand English, I was quite worried, but I'm glad I tried it!! I was concerned about getting injured and what would happen if I couldn't understand the instructions, but they explained everything with gestures, and there weren't any difficult steps to follow. The anxiety was only before taking off, but once I was in the air, I was overwhelmed by the beauty of the ocean. While flying, it just felt amazing.

The photo service was $30, and they took over 100 pictures. I brought a waterproof digital camera (hanging around my neck), so I was able to take photos from the sky (the flight was stable enough), but I couldn't take pictures of myself, so it was great to have them taken for wonderful memories.

There was a bit of trouble with the pickup car being late, but the hotel front desk contacted them, and everything worked out. It was just Hawaiian time, I guess (laughs).

パラセイリングは初めて、英語もわからないので、かなり悩みましたが
やってみて良かった！！
怪我しないかな…、
説明が聞き取れなかったらどうしよう…と心配していましたが
身振り手振りで説明してもらえるし、そもそも難しい手順はありません。
不安なのは飛ぶまでで、いったん飛んでしまったら海の美しさに圧倒されてます。
飛んでいる間は、とにかく気持ちがいいです。

Photoサービスは３０$で１００枚以上撮ってもらえました。
防水のデジカメを（首からぶら下げて）持っていったので
空からの写真は撮れましたが（それほど飛行は安定しています）
自分の写真は撮れないので、撮ってもらって良い思い出になりました。

迎えの車が遅れるというトラブルがありましたが、
ホテルのフロントから連絡を入れてもらって事なきを得ました。
そこはハワイタイムということで(笑)

It was such a lot of fun. Russel and Kevin were excellent professionals and really made us feel safe with their knowledge and skill. We really enjoyed the whole excursion from start to finish. The boat handled the windy and choppy conditions very comfortably. Para-sailing about 600 ft. above the ocean off Waikiki harbour was so quiet and exhilarating.

I thought the children might be scared, but surprisingly they were quite happy. The people who rode with us were very kind, and the children became attached to them. If there's a chance, maybe next time too?!

子供が怖がるかなとも思ったが意外と喜んでました。同乗した方々が非常にやさしく、子供もなついていました。機会があれば次回も？！

I was a bit nervous since it was my first time, but I felt refreshed and had a great time. I experienced more seasickness than I expected, but the staff provided excellent support, which made me feel at ease.

初めてで少し緊張していましたが、気分爽快で楽しかったです。予想以上に船酔いしてしまいましたが、スタッフがしっかりフォローしてくれたので安心でした。

I made a last-minute reservation online the day before, but the process from booking to pickup to the actual paragliding was smooth, and I was able to enjoy it comfortably (≧∇≦). I'm very satisfied!

前日に現地で急遽ネットから予約しましたが、予約→ピックアップ→本番とスムーズで、快適にパラセイリングが出来ました（≧∇≦）大満足です！

Nice and professional crew, expectations were met completely. Had a great time on the line together with my girlfriend and a great view on Waikiki.

2 kids and dad together! What a blast! Will do this again!

There may be some language issues during the round trip from the yacht harbor to the point, but the captain's administrative response was not very exciting. The parasailing itself was truly wonderful. The shuttle bus driver did their best to cheer us up with broken Japanese. Of course, I doubled the tip.

ヨットハーバーからポイントまでの往復時は言葉の問題は多少あるかもしれませんがキャプテン等の事務的な対応はテンションがあがりませんでした。パラセイリング自体は大変すばらいものでした。シャトルバスのドライバーは片言の日本語で一生懸命盛り上げてくれました。チップはもちろん倍額させていただきました。

In a word, it was so much fun that I want to experience it again. We went up to a height of 150 meters, which was quite high, and the view was beautiful. They will burn the photos onto a CD for $30, and I think it's worth buying. We were worried about theft and didn't bring any money, but there were other Japanese groups there, so theft probably isn't a concern. Definitely give it a try!

一言で言うともう一度体験したいくらい楽しかったです。150mの高さにしたのですが結構高く景色も綺麗でした。写真を$30でCDに焼いてくれますが、これは買ったほうがいいと思います。私たちは盗難が怖くお金を持参しなかったのですが、他の日本人のグループの方もいて盗難とかはおそらく心配なさそです。是非体験してみてください、

Nice view!
I try Parasailing every year!
I will try parasailing at Hawaii parasailing next year!

I participated in the 120m early morning activity.
There were three groups, but all were Japanese!!
It was reassuring.

Since I had read the reviews thoroughly, I immediately recognized that the welcoming bus was driven by Yano-san, and I enjoyed the ride while chatting in broken Japanese.

After the first group finished, when I put on the equipment and soared into the sky, the boat became smaller and smaller, and I found myself in a quiet world.
I had a fantastic view of Diamond Head and the city of Waikiki; it was over in no time.
Even my companion, who is supposed to have a fear of heights, seemed to be having fun.
I didn't make any requests, and in the end, all groups were dunked into the sea up to their waists...
Getting soaked became one of my memories of Hawaii, so I was glad about that.
The waiting time on the cruiser was also enjoyable with the refreshing breeze.

For some reason, I was asked whether I wanted to take photos after the first group had flown, so it felt a bit unfortunate for those who had already taken off and weren't asked.
The response in that regard felt a bit casual.
The photos were saved on an SD card, and it was about $30 for around 70 pictures, but some were blurry or questionable, so compared to reviews mentioning over 100 photos, it felt a bit pricey. It seemed like the person taking the photos was a newcomer?
However, since I didn't bring a camera, I decided to buy them, thinking of it as a tourist price, and in the end, I think it was a good choice. The quality was great since it was a DSLR.

By the way, we left a $10 tip for the two of us.

The reception staff were also good at broken Japanese!
You don't need to worry if you can't speak English.

I definitely recommend this to anyone struggling with activities in Hawaii!!

(I gave it four stars because there was a bit of a gap in the response between Yano-san and the boat captains. This might be typical in Hawaii, though...)

早朝の120mに参加しました。
三組の参加でしたが、全組日本人！！
安心感もありました。

レビューを熟読していたので、お迎えのバスはヤノさんだと一目でわかり、道中はカタコトの日本語で楽しませて頂きました。

一組目がおわり、いざ、装置をつけて空に舞い上がってみると
ボートがどんどん小さくなり静かな世界。
ダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの街が一望でき、素晴らしい眺めで、あっという間でした。
一緒に行った相手も高所恐怖症のはずが、
楽しそうにしていました。
あえて何もリクエストしなかったら、最後は全組腰の位置までじゃぶんと海に落とされましたが…
びしょ濡れになったのもまた、ハワイの思い出のひとつになってよかったです。
待ち時間のクルーザーも風が気持ちよくて楽しかったですよ～

写真はなぜか、一組目が飛んでから撮るかどうか聞かれたので、既に飛び立っていて聞かれなかった方が少し可哀想でした。
その辺り対応は適当な感じでした。
写真はSDカードに入れてくれて、３０ドルで70枚くらいでしたが、ぶれてたり、ん？というものもあったので、100枚以上撮ってくれたレビューを見てしまうと少し割高な感じ。撮っていたのもレクチヤーされてたので新人さん？の様でした。
でもカメラを持っていかなかったので、観光地価格だと思い割りきって買いましたが結果よかったかなと思っています。一眼レフなので、画質はバッチリでした。

因みにチップは二人で１０ドル置いてきました。

受付のお姉さん方も、カタコトですが日本語上手でしたよー！
英語喋れなくても大丈夫です。

ハワイのアクティビティに悩んでる方には是非オススメしたいです！！

(ヤノさんと、ボートのキャプテン達の対応に少し落差があったので、星４つにしました。ハワイではこんなものかもしれませんが…)

We had a wonderful time with our activity! The location was awesome! Great assistants, fun & safe activities! Will do again in the future for sure! We loved it!

What a great way to spend the morning. Was with our family of 7 so had the boat to ourselves. The guides were a blast and played great music. Told us specifically how to load into the harnesses and "fly". Our 10 minutes were so peaceful, got dunked 2x (which was an added bonus). Just wish parking instructions were a bit clearer but that was the phone's fault, ended up walking all the way around the pier. What a great memory. The guide took great pictures and was totally worth the $30.00!

From the hotel pickup to the boat, Japanese was hardly understood, but the staff spoke broken Japanese regarding safety. Not being able to communicate in Japanese is part of the fun of traveling, and it was really great. I think it was also a stimulating experience for my middle school children. My 13-year-old daughter was scared at first, but it seems she enjoyed the beautiful scenery.

ホテルピックアップから船上まで、日本語は殆んど通じなかったけど、
安全に関する所だけは、スタッフがカタコトの日本語で話してくれました。
日本語が通じないのも、旅の楽しみだし、とっても良かったです。
中学生の子供達にも刺激になったと思います。
１３歳の娘も、始めは怖がっていたけど、景色もキレイで楽しめた様です。

I experienced this with my 5-year-old son. My son, who loves Ultraman, was thrilled to be able to fly like Ultraman. He was a bit scared just before, but the moment we took off into the sky, he smiled.
We also received photos on an SD card, and although it was $30, they turned out great, and we were very satisfied.

I would like to experience this again.

５歳の息子と体験しました。ウルトラマン好きの息子は、ウルトラマンのように空を翔べると大喜び。直前は少し怖がったけど、空へ舞い上がったとたん、笑顔になりました。
写真もSDカードでもらえて、30ドルだったけど、よくとれていて、大満足です。

また体験したいです。
