Oahu
I attempted the 120m jump. The day I had reserved was canceled due to bad weather, but they were able to reschedule for a time that worked for us the next day! The pickup was also on time.
The boat does sway quite a bit. It feels nice once you're flying, but those who are sensitive to swinging like on a swing set might feel a bit nauseous.
When I actually flew, it felt like a very long time, and I was able to enjoy the scenery thoroughly.
120mに挑戦しました。予約していた日が悪天候だったため、当日にキャンセルになってしまったのですが、翌日の私たちの都合にあった時間に変更していただけました!ピックアップも時間通りでした。
船は結構揺れます。飛んでからも気持ちいいですが、ブランコのような揺れが苦手な方は少し酔うかもしれません。
実際飛んでみるととても長い時間のように感じて、十分景色を楽しむこともできました。
Considering the winter activities, how was it? I participated knowing that visibility might be limited, but I was really disappointed because I could only see a small glimpse of the whales far away, and it wasn't clear enough to capture a photo. Although the whales were hard to see, I thought it might not be a bad tour if I considered it as a walk on the boat.
冬ならではのアクティビティのわりには、いかがなものでしょうか。
見えない場合もあるのは承知の上、参加しましたが、
本当に遠くに小さく、一瞬見えただけで、とても写真におさめることもできず、肉眼ではっきりみえたわけでもないので、がっかりですね。
ホエールは見えにくかったけれど、船の船上散歩と考えれば、悪くないツアーかな???と思いました。
Thank you very much for participating in our cruise.
We are very sorry to hear that you were unable to observe many whales this time.
There are times when you can see active whales making spectacular jumps, so please do come back and give it another try.
All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you again.

この度は私共のクルーズにご参加頂き、誠に有難うございました。
今回はあまり良く鯨が観測できなかったとの事、大変残念に思います。
アクティブな鯨の豪快なジャンプを見られる時もございますので、是非またチャレンジしにいらして下さい。
スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。

Nice city tour with special driver but the memorial just acceptable
On the 1:30 PM cruise, it mentioned that "light snacks" were included in the price. I was expecting something like sandwiches, but it turned out to be just potato chips and cookies. I think it would be better to describe this as snacks rather than light meals. However, the beer was unlimited. Of course, we also saw whales. Ah, I'm so hungry!!!
午後1時30分のクルーズで、料金に含まれているものの中に「軽食」とありました。サンドイッチくらいでるのかな、と思っていたら、なんとポテトチップとクッキーのみでした。これでは軽食でなくお菓子と記載した方が良いと思います。でも、ビールは飲みほーだいでした。もちろん、クジラも見えました。あー、腹減った!!!
This was my first time participating. From a distance, the 110m height looked quite intimidating, but once I actually tried it, I felt a rush of excitement and had a lot of fun. Since we were in a small boat and the waves were a bit high, I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take some medication before joining. The crew members were also a fun bunch, and they made the activity enjoyable with their lively spirit. They provide explanations in Japanese, so I think you can relax and enjoy yourself. It was a bit cloudy and chilly, so I think having a jacket or a bath towel would be helpful. They also accommodate requests like wanting to stay completely dry or wanting to get your legs wet. I would love to participate again!
初めての参加でした。
110mで遠くから見るとかなり高いのでドキドキしましたが、実際にやってみるとかなり興奮し、楽しかったです。
小さなボートでやや波も高かったので、酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んで参加されることをお勧めします。
クルーのお兄さんたちも愉快な人たちで、ノリノリの中で楽しくアクティビティを行ってくれました。日本語で説明してくれるので安心して楽しめると思います。
曇りでやや寒かったですが、上着やバスタオルがあるといいと思います。全く濡れないようにしたい、脚まで浸かりたい、などの要望も聞いてくれます。また参加したいです!
Well planned tour. Excellent and friendly guide. Best of all it rained and we pretty much got the bay to ourselves. Would definitely recommend it and do it again.
Hi Catherine, it was a fun day. Hope we see you again. Dan.
It was cloudy, not rainy, on the day of the trip. I was happy to see more sea turtles than I expected. I even saw baby sea turtles! I thought the sandbar was a bit disappointing as it was only about waist-deep, making it feel more like an island. However, I was satisfied with the snorkeling and saw a lot of fish. If I could wish for anything, I would have liked to explore the sandbar properly and snorkel a bit longer. It was a little chilly that day, so I appreciate the consideration shown.
当日雨ではなく曇りでした。
海ガメが思っていたよりたくさん見る事ができ嬉しかったです。
子海ガメも見れました!
サンドバーは腰に浸かるくらいで島かな?とは思い少し残念でした。
しかしシュノーケルでたくさんお魚見れて、満足でした。
欲を言うならば、サンドバーをきちんと見たかったのと、もう少しシュノーケルしていたかったです。
当日少し寒かったので気を利かせて頂いた事だとは思うのですが。
Very easy checking in and checking out no problem at all
Mahalo! We hope to see you again soon!
Upon entering, we first went to put our luggage in a locker. It's located immediately to the left after passing through the gate. The large locker was $18 and the small one was $13. Since there were four of us in the family and we had four bath towels, we opted for the large locker. It was just big enough to fit all our belongings. The payment for the locker is done using a machine in front, which also offers a Japanese language option, making it easy to understand without confusion. However, if you pay in cash, be careful as the machine shows how much change you will receive, and it seems that it won't give more than that amount.
I read in reviews that it's best to have lunch right after entering, so we had lunch first. The staff at the food stand were friendly and kind, confirming our order two or three times, but as others have mentioned, they were quite laid-back. When we passed by during lunchtime, there were more than ten people in line, so I thought it would take a while at that pace.
I noticed that the schedule for each attraction wasn't posted at the entrance, which was a bit surprising, but on the day we visited, all attractions were operating without breaks. Since it was a Monday, it wasn't crowded, and we were able to enjoy unlimited rides smoothly. It was thrilling, and the kids (a 2nd-year middle schooler and a 3rd-year high schooler) were very happy and had a great time.
I personally would love to go again.
入場して、まず荷物をロッカーに入れに行きました。ゲートを入ってすぐ左手にあります。大18ドル、小13ドルでした。私たちは、家族4人でバスタオルも4枚持っていたので大にしました。全部の荷物がギリギリ入る大きさでした。ロッカーの清算は、前にある自販機のようなものでします。日本語も選べて分かりやすく迷う事もありませんでした。しかし現金で払う場合は、お釣りがあと何ドル出るのか表示されていて、それ以上のおつりが出ないようなので気をつけて下さい。
口コミで、入場したらすぐにランチを食べた方がいいと書かれていたので、まずランチを食べました。売店の方は、愛想はよく親切で2、3回注文を確認してくれましたが、みなさんが書かれている通り、のんびりとしていました。お昼の時間に前を通ったら10人以上は並んでいたので、あの調子だと時間がかかるだろうなと思いました。
各アトラクションのスケジュールが玄関に掲示されてなく、あれ?と思いましたが、私たちが行った日は、全部のアトラクションが休憩することなく行われていて、月曜日ということもあり混雑することもなく、乗り放題で順調に全部のものに乗れました。スリルがあり子供たち(中学2年、高校3年)もとても楽しかったと喜んでいました。
私自身もまた行きたいなと思います。
In the morning, when I went out to the hotel entrance before the pickup time, the shuttle bus was already there. After confirming my name, they wrapped a paper with the return bus number and time around my wrist. The guide seemed to only speak English and informed us that there would be an explanation from a Japanese-speaking guide once we arrived. The pickup time was 9:35 AM, and the bus departed at 9:43 AM. We arrived smoothly around 10:25 AM without getting caught in traffic.
Upon arrival, a guide who spoke Japanese provided explanations. They checked names in order while handing out tickets for entry. Although they said the e-voucher was not necessary, it was confirmed, so it was smoother for those who had it, even though some did not.
At the entrance, they checked our bags, and it seems that no food or drinks were allowed except for one unopened bottle of water per person. The day was enjoyable and passed by in no time.
朝、ピックアップの時間前にホテルの玄関に出ると迎えのバスはもう着いていました。
名前を確認してもらい、帰りのバスナンバーと時間が印刷された紙を手首に巻いてくれました。このガイドの方は、英語しか出来ないようで、着いたら日本語のガイドさんから説明がありますよというようなことを教えてくれました。ピックアップ時間が9時35分 バス出発が9時43分でした。現地までは、渋滞に巻き込まれることもなく、スムーズに10時25分くらいに到着しました。
到着すると日本語の出来るガイドの方が説明をしてくれました。名前を順番に確認しながら、チケットを受け取って中に入場しました。eバウチャーはいらないということでしたが、一応、確認されますので、持っていない方もいらっしゃいましたが、持っていた方がスムーズにいきます。
入り口で荷物の中を確認されますので、未開封の水(一人一本)以外は、飲食物は持ち込めないようです。
一日中、楽しくあっという間に終わりました。
It's a zipline experience in a beautiful farm that stretches as far as the eye can see. I was torn between this and Kualoa, but considering just the zipline, I think this was the better choice. In between ziplines, you cross suspension bridges and climb ropes. Since this place focuses solely on ziplining, if you want to combine it with other activities like horseback riding or jeeping, Kualoa might be a better option. When I went, there were no staff who spoke Japanese, and I was the only Japanese person, but the staff and other participants were friendly. According to the cheerful bus driver, there were even Japanese grandmothers who couldn't speak any English but participated using gestures. Since I was there alone, a family of five from Australia looked out for me, and other American participants often struck up conversations. Even if your English is limited, it's perfectly fine to initiate conversation or ask the staff for help when needed.
見渡す限り広がる美しい農場の中でのジップラインです。クアロアと迷いましたが、ジップラインだけで考えると、こちらで良かったと思います。ジップラインの合間に、吊り橋を渡ったり、登り棒ならぬ登り紐を登ったりします。ここは、ジップラインだけを遂行しているので、乗馬やジープなど、他のアクティビティと合わせたい場合は、クアロアが良いかもしれません。私が行った時は、日本語が話せるスタッフは辞めてしまっていて、日本人も私だけでしたが、スタッフや回りの参加者はフレンドリーでした。陽気なバスの運転手さんによると、英語が全く話せない日本人のお婆さん達も身振り手振りで参加したりしていたみたいです。私は、一人参加でしたので、オーストラリアの家族5人が気にかけてくれて、他のアメリカ人参加者もよく話かけてくれました。片言でも、自分から話かけたり、助けて欲しい時は遠慮なくスタッフに声をかければ大丈夫ですよ。
We had a wonderful time on the trip. The snorkel is the first part of the event. There were numerous fish and handful of large turtles. Then there is a brief sail around the area. On our sail we encountered humpback whales and a massive pod of dolphins.
I realize, to a degree the whole adventure is a crap shoot. Someone that encountered no turtles, whales, or dolphins might rate the trip less highly, but we felt this was well worth our time and highly recommend.
Great trip. Well organized, all the equipment provided. Guide knew exactly where to find some rare animals. Pickup was from a hotel a quarter mile from where we were staying in Honolulu. Try to go at high tide if possible.
Thanks guys, glad you enjoyed. Hope we see you again. Dan.
It was a little hard to get to (the hotels are so close together) so remember to get there early! We got there just in time. The boat is beautiful docked on the beach. The crew were so wonderful and friendly. We saw a bunch of turtles! It was amazing when they would surface for air RIGHT NEXT TO US! I wish the water was clearer, but it was still a great experience. Then we got to lounge in the boat and sail over off of Diamond Head. We saw spinner dolphins spinning out of the water. There were about 10 other people on the boat with us, but still cozy. They offer free snacks and you can purchase drinks (water, juice and alcohol) on the boat. We were back in time to join my family for lunch! perfect morning excursion at a great price!
I participated with my 6-year-old daughter. Of course, the trainer spoke English, so I was worried about my limited listening skills, but they kindly taught us using body language, which made it a lot of fun. It might be reassuring to have some basic swimming skills. The dolphins were truly adorable, and both my daughter and I were captivated. Although it was only 25 minutes, I think it was just the right amount of time for a 6-year-old in terms of physical stamina. The next day, my daughter seemed to have the best memories, as she didn't want to leave the dolphin lagoon at all.
6歳娘と参加しました。
もちろんですがトレーナーさんは英語ですので、私のつたないリスニング能力では心配でしたが親切にボディランゲージで教えてくれたのでとても楽しめました。
軽い泳ぎの能力はあった方が安心かもしれません。
イルカは本当に可愛くて、娘も私も虜になりました。
25分ですが6歳児には体力的に丁度良かったと思います。
次の日イルカのラグーンから全然離れないくらい娘には最高の思い出になったようです。

Honestly, I wasn't expecting much, but I enjoyed it more than I anticipated. The customer service was also polite, and the staff were cheerful. Plus, I was able to see the whales up close. It was the best trip ever.
正直、あんまり期待してなかったが、予想以上に楽しめた。接客対応も丁寧で、スタッフさんが明るい。そして、クジラもとっても近くで見ることができた。
最高の旅でした。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you were able to observe whales up close. Please do come again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.

The weather was great, and the sea was very beautiful! The tour guide was very kind, and even though I hadn't rented a wetsuit, they had it ready for me. I had left the money at the hotel, but it was fine to pay later! I'm really glad I rented it! I wasn't cold, and I enjoyed myself without drowning! I even saw three sea turtles! You absolutely have to go!
天気もよく海がとてもきれいでした!添乗員さんがとても親切で、ウエットスーツを借りていなかったのですが、準備してくださっており、お金もホテルにおいていましたが後払いで大丈夫でした!借りて本当に良かったです!寒くなく溺れず楽しめました!海亀も三匹みれました!絶対いくべきです!
Dear Tomorin,
Thank you for joining our tour with six people. The conditions on that day were perfect, with calm waves and great visibility, so we took you out to the open water. Right after we set out, we spotted a turtle. After returning your friend who wasn't feeling well back to the beach, we headed out again. We saw another turtle at Witch's, and before heading back inside, we encountered yet another turtle at Black Point. It was a truly lucky day to see turtles at every stop!
We hope to see you again on another tour when you visit Hawaii.
Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
ともりん様、この度は6名様でツアーにお越し頂き、ありがとうございます。この日は波もなく透明度もよく綺麗でしたので、直接沖の方にご案内致しました。沖に出てすぐにカメを1匹、その後具合の悪かったお友達の方をビーチに戻した後に再び沖へ。ウィッチーズでまたカメを1匹、そしてインサイドに戻る前にブラックポイントでまたまたカメを1匹と行く先々でカメに会えてとても幸運な日でした!!是非またハワイにお越しの際にはツアーでお目にかかれればと思います。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
We participated as a couple. There were about five groups at the same time, but only one other group was Japanese besides us. The guide explained everything in Japanese.
I have a fear of heights, but after seeing the experiences here, I booked the 150m jump. Watching others jump made me regret not choosing a lower height... However, since the view was just the sea as far as the eye could see, I surprisingly didn't feel the height and wasn't scared.
What was more challenging was the seasickness. We took motion sickness medication beforehand, but it was still tough, so I think it's better to avoid scheduling meals before the activity or plans after the flight.
The flight lasted just over five minutes, but we enjoyed it. The weather was a bit bad, so I want to try again when the weather is nice!
夫婦で参加しました。
同じ時間帯には5組ほどでしたが日本人は私たちともう一組だけ。ガイドのお兄さんは日本語で説明してくれました。
高所恐怖症なのですがこちらの体験談を見て150mで予約。他の人が飛んでいるのを見て「やっぱりもっと低いのにすればよかった…」と後悔しましたが、見渡す限り海なので意外と高さは感じず怖さはなかったです。
それよりも船酔いで大変でした。私たち夫婦は事前に酔い止めを飲んでいましたがそれでも辛かったので、アクティビティ前の食事やフライト後に予定を入れるのは控えた方がいいと思います。
飛行時間は5分少しですが楽しめました。少し天気が悪かったのでまた天気が良い時にリベンジしたいです!
It was our first trip to Hawaii for our honeymoon. We used this tour to visit Kualoa Ranch, which has been a filming location for Jurassic Park and many other movies! Compared to many other tour companies, this one was more affordable, and the experience was the same.
We boarded a large bus at the pickup location (our hotel) in the morning, and since it was early, everyone on the bus was sleeping. During the ride, we filled out a survey for our desired activities, and upon arrival, we were given a schedule for the day. Each person then went to the designated meeting points for their chosen activities.
We chose the movie location tour, jungle exploration, and ocean voyage tour. On the movie location tour, we were able to take photos next to that famous tree from Jurassic Park. The Japanese explanations at various filming points were very clear and helpful. The jungle exploration was guided in English, but it was still enjoyable even with a basic understanding! Here, we were taken to several filming locations, which were different from those on the movie location tour, and personally, I found this part to be even more impressive. The ocean voyage involved getting on a boat and heading out to sea, where we saw many sea turtles, which was truly satisfying. Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy, so it would have been even more amazing if it had been sunny!
Horseback riding and the buggies also looked like a lot of fun. I would love to use this tour again!
新婚旅行でのはじめてのハワイでした。
ジュラシックパーク、ワールドや数々の映画のロケ地になっているクアロアランチにこちらのツアーを利用して行ってきました!たくさんのツアー会社のものと比較してもこちらの方が割安!体験内容も変わりありません。
朝迎えの大型バスにピックアップ場所(滞在ホテルでした)で乗り込み、クアロアランチへ。朝早いのもありバスの中はみんな寝ています。バスの中で希望するアクティビティのアンケートを取り、現地に到着した際に1日の予定表を渡され、各自で各アクティビティの集合場所に行き体験するといった感じでした。
我々は、映画ロケ地ツアーとジャングル探検、オーシャンボヤージツアーを選択。映画ロケ地ツアーではジュラシックパークで有名なあの木の側で写真が撮れます。また様々な撮影ポイントで日本語の説明をしてくれるのでとてもわかりやすかったです。ジャングル探検では英語ガイドでしたがなんとなくの理解でも楽しめます!ここでも数カ所ロケ地に案内されますが、どれもロケ地ツアーとは別のところで個人的にはこちらの方が凄かったです。オーシャンボヤージも船にのり海に出ますが、船上からウミガメが沢山見れ本当に満足いくものでした。天気があいにくの曇り空でしたので、晴れていたらもっと素晴らしかったことでしょう!
乗馬や、バギーもとても楽しそうでした。また利用させていただきたいです。
It was my first trip to Hawaii for my honeymoon. There were places we couldn't visit during this trip, so we decided to see them from the sky and signed up for a tour. It was the right choice! The weather was clear, and while Hawaii is beautiful from the ground, seeing it from above was even more stunning and truly a wonderful experience. The pilot was also a lovely person, providing excellent service. They frequently checked in with us, asking if everything was good or okay, and even though I don't speak much English, there was so much that was communicated through the atmosphere. I chose the option without a window, but I really felt the wind and the grandeur, which I highly recommend. It was a tour I would love to use again!
新婚旅行でのはじめてのハワイでした。今回の旅では回りきれない所があり、どうせだったら空から見てしまおうとツアーに申し込みました。正解でした!天気は快晴、地上から見るハワイももちろん素敵ですが、上空からみるそれは更に素敵で本当に素晴らしい体験になりました。パイロットも素敵な方で、サービス満点でした。度々good?とかok?とかこちらを気遣ってくれ、英語があまり喋らなくても雰囲気で伝わるものが沢山ありました。今回窓なしをチョイスしましたが直に感じる風だったり壮大さは本当に感じられ、オススメしたいポイントです。
また利用したいツアーでした!
I challenged myself to 150 meters. It was my first time, but the local instructor efficiently helped me put on the equipment, so I was able to ride smoothly. I was a bit disappointed that the time was shorter than I expected, but it was a fantastic experience, and I definitely want to do it again! The service that takes photos (for a fee) was also great.
150メートルに挑戦しました。
初めてでしたが現地のインストラクターの方が手際よく器具をつけてくれたのでスムーズに乗れました。
時間が思ってたより少し短かったのが残念でしたがとてもらいい体験になり、ぜひまたやりたいと思っています!
写真を撮ってくれるサービス(有料)があるのもよかったです、
So much fun! We enjoyed every aspect of this. Our guides took time after snorkeling to show us whales and dolphins. It was great!
It was harder than I expected.
Before reaching the starting point, there was a place where I had to climb about 5 meters using a rope with just my arm strength, and that was quite tough. Once you get used to the zip line, there's not much effort required, so while sliding, you just need to lift your legs, making it not too strenuous. Since most participants were from the United States, the explanations in English were native-level, and I sometimes missed important points, realizing later what they meant through my own experience. In that sense, it was quite challenging.
It was my first experience with the zip line, and I enjoyed it very much! It was truly thrilling! My knees were shaking on the first one. I would definitely recommend it to everyone.
I should mention that it uses more physical strength than you might imagine, and the English can be difficult. Also, while you can bring cameras or phones at your own risk, they can fall out of your pockets, and you won't be able to retrieve them easily, so it's better to attach a strap to secure them.
予想以上にハードでした。
スタート地点に到達するまでに1回、5mくらいの櫓までロープ1本を使って腕の力で登る場所があり、これはかなりきつかったです。ジップラインは慣れてしまえば、力を入れるところはないので、滑っている間足を上げているくらいでそれほどつらくはありません。参加者はほぼ米国出身の方が多い会だったためか、説明の英語がネイティブで重要な説明点なども聞き逃すこともあり、自分で体験してなるほどこういうことを言ってたのか、と思ったりすることがありました。そういう意味でも結構ハードでした。
ジップラインは初めての経験だったのでとても楽しめました!まさにスリル!最初の1本は膝が震えました。皆さんにお進めしたいです。
想像以上に体力を使う点と英語が難しいことはお知らせしておきます。あとカメラや携帯の持参は自己責任で持ち込み可能ですが、ポケットから落ちることがあり、さらには拾いにいけるような場所には落ちませんので、紐をつけて自分に固定できるようにして持って行った方が良いですよ。
There are various thrilling slides that are very American, and even adults can enjoy them. Also, you can't slide while wearing flip-flops, so they're not needed in the park. The paid lockers are convenient as you can open and close them freely. Outside food is not allowed, but you can bring in water.
Unfortunately, it was quite windy and cold during this visit, so I couldn't enjoy it to the fullest. Next time, I want to go on a warm day.
アメリカらしい迫力があるスライダーが色々あって、大人でも楽しめました。
また、ビーチサンダルは履いて滑ることができないので、園内では不要です。
有料ロッカーは開閉自由なので便利でした。
食品は持ち込み不可ですが、水は持ち込めます。
今回はあいにく風が強くて寒かったので、めいっぱい遊ぶことができなかったのが残念です。。
次回行くときは、暖かい日に行きたいです。
I previously boarded the smaller one, but this time it's the larger one. The cabin is spacious, so I was able to see both sides. I think if there were a system like scattering food from a submarine, we could see many more fish.
以前小さいほうに搭乗しましたが、今回は大きいほう。艦内が広いので両側を見ることができました。潜水艦から餌を撒くような仕組みがあればもっと沢山の魚が見れると思う。
I participated with my university student son and high school daughter. I'm afraid of heights, but after reading the reviews, I thought I could join this. The crew members were very cheerful and entertained us with their broken Japanese. We signed up for the 150m, and it was higher than I expected! Scary!! But more than that, it felt amazing, and the view was the best!!! It became a great memory (^ ^)
大学生の息子と、高校生の娘の3人で参加しました。高所恐怖症の私ですが、口コミを見てこれなら参加できるかと。クルーの方々もとても陽気で、片言の日本語でとても楽しませてくれました。150mを申し込みましたが、予想以上高い!怖い!!けど、それ以上に気持ちよく、最高の景色!!!いい思い出になりました(^ ^)
The tour was wonderful due to Larry's knowledge of Downtown. He was a pleasure to listen to and a good sense of humor. Very organized tour. Thank you
Shortly after setting sail, we could see the hotels in Waikiki and Diamond Head, and we enjoyed the view from the sea. The ship was large, and there was no rocking, so there was no worry about seasickness.
For lunch, we were served turkey sandwiches and roast beef sandwiches, which were delicious.
At that moment, we were able to see four whales about 5 meters from the ship.
出航 してから間もなく、ワイキキのホテルやダイアモンドヘッドが見えて、海からの景色も楽しむことが出来ます。 船も大きく、揺れもありません。船酔いの心配ありません。
ランチで用意されていた。ターキーサンドとローストビーフサンドは、美味しいです。
そんな時に、4頭のクジラが船から5m ぐらいのところで観ることが出来ました。
We visited Hawaii for our honeymoon and participated as a couple. Although it was an early morning discount plan, I thought it was sufficient. I didn't expect much in terms of Japanese language support, but I had no particular concerns about the flow leading up to the parasailing.
The day's itinerary was as follows:
- Pick up from the hotel
- Arrival at the port, then we moved out to sea by boat (there were three Japanese couples including us, two crew members, and lively music playing)
- Preparation on the boat (just follow the instructions given)
- When it was our turn, we went parasailing (we could do it together as a couple)
- After that, we just enjoyed the experience. The distant scenery was beautiful. We had a panoramic view of Honolulu. Looking down surprised us at our height. Eventually, we were brought back down and dipped a little into the sea.
- After everyone finished, we returned to the port. Before getting on the shuttle, we could purchase photo data at the reception (there's no need to buy it unless you check the data first. Payment can be made in cash or by card, but JCB cards are not accepted, so we had to come back).
- Then we were taken back to the hotel.
It was a thrilling experience like riding a roller coaster, and I think it's worth trying at least once. The wind was strong on the water, and there were waves, so if you're prone to motion sickness, it's better to take some anti-nausea medication.

早朝割引プランでしたが十分だったと思います。日本語はあまり期待できませんが、バラセイリングをするまでの流れに特に不安な点はありませんでした。
一日の流れは、ホテルにお迎え
⇒港着、船で沖へ移動(私たち含め日本人3組、乗組員2人、ノリノリの音楽をかけていました)
⇒船の上で準備(言われたとおりにするだけです)
⇒順番が来たらパラセイリング(夫婦二人でできました)
⇒あとは成すがままです。遠くの景色はきれい。ホノルルを一望。真下を見ると自分たちの高さにびっくりします。そのうち、下に戻されて、ちょびっとだけ海に落としてくれます。
⇒ほかの皆さんが終わり次第、帰港。⇒送迎車に乗る前に、受付で写真データが購入できます。(データ確認後のため、無理に購入する必要はありません。現金またはカード、ただしカードはJCB不可で、出直しました)
⇒ホテルまで送迎、でした。
絶叫マシーンに乗るような、初めての体験でドキドキしましたが、一度はやってみる価値あると思います。
海上は風が強く、波もあったため、酔いやすい人は酔い止めを飲んだほうが良いです。
We visited Hawaii for our honeymoon and participated as a couple. It was our first time surfing, but both my wife and I were able to ride the waves from the very first try. We were able to challenge ourselves multiple times, and although we were very tired, it became an amazing memory. Since it was a semi-private lesson, we felt safe during the experience, and we received original T-shirts on our way back.
The day's flow was as follows: pick-up from the hotel (the driving was a bit rough) ⇒ arrival at the office and changing (they lend out rash guards and reef shoes for free. We brought our own but borrowed both.) ⇒ explanation of the basic surfing movements. It was simple and easy to understand. ⇒ moved to the beach with the surfboards. At this time, we greeted the instructor. ⇒ reconfirmed the basic movements on the beach, and then we started surfing! ⇒ We kept challenging ourselves by following the instructor's directions. (At first, I struggled to sit after riding the wave and eventually fell into the water. If you don't fall correctly, you can get hurt by the coral. When I got tired from paddling, the instructor helped me.) ⇒ Returned to the office, changed, and received photo data. (All the photos from that day were compiled together.) ⇒ Finally, we were taken back to the hotel.
The instructor's Japanese was a bit broken, but it was sufficient. The moment I rode the wave was moving! I want to do it again! I think this experience is more for those who want to try surfing with the help of an instructor rather than focusing on improving surfing skills. We were very satisfied!

初めてのサーフィンでしたが、私も妻も一回目から波に乗ることができたし、そのあとも何度もチャレンジできて、とっても疲れたけど最高の思い出となりました。セミプライベートレッスンだったので、安心して体験できたし、帰りにオリジナルTシャツをいただきました。
一日の流れは、ホテルにお迎え(運転はちょいと荒め)
⇒事務所に到着・着替え(ラッシュガード、リーフシューズを無料で貸し出してくれます。自前でもってきましたがどちらも借りました。)
⇒サーフィンの基本動作の説明。シンプルでわかりやすい。
⇒サーフボードを持ってビーチに移動。このとき先生とご挨拶。
⇒ビーチで基本動作を再確認。その後、サーフィン開始!
⇒とにかく先生の指示に従って挑戦し続けます。(最初は波乗り後座るのがうまくできず、最終的には落水。うまく落ちないと、サンゴで痛い思いをします。パドリングで疲れたら、先生が助けてくれました。)
⇒事務所に戻り、着替え。写真データをもらいました。(その日全員分の写真がひとまとめになっています。)⇒ホテルまで送迎、でした。
先生の日本語はカタコトですが十分です。波に乗れた瞬間は感動!またやりたい!
サーフィンそのものの技術向上というよりも、先生の力を借りてサーフィン体験したい人向けだと思います。私たちは満足でした!
