Oahu
Beautiful lei and a great way to be welcomed to Hawaii. The lady was lovely and gave us some information and took our picture. Recommended and will use services again.
Aloha Linda, thank you so much for taking the time to write about your experience. The greeter will be so happy to hear about it and we are all very honored to have met you that morning! We hope to see you again some day soon! Mahalo!

Thank you for that wonderful review! It was such a thrill because your greeter, Mary, made the lei for you and Steve to perfection! We hope we can serve you again on your next Hawaiian expedition!
Mahalo!

A wonderful trip with great views and the sandbar is spectacular. The crew were great, and Jenner was especially great and super friendly and entertaining. Our captain was also friendly and took some great pictures of us on the boat. Highly recommended and will do again when in Honolulu.
A really great evening with a wonderful sunset and great views of Waikiki and Diamond Head. Crew were excellent and fun. Would definitely recommend and will be doing again when in Honolulu
We had a great time - parasail team were very good and helpful, and you felt safe, even 1000 ft out!! Great views of Waikiki. Pictures they took were great and worth the money. Highly recommended. Will be doing again when in Honolulu
I was able to see dolphins and sea turtles properly. The staff's enthusiasm was also wonderful. I'm glad I participated.
イルカ、海ガメにちゃんと会えました。
スタッフの盛り上げも素晴らしいかったですよ
参加して良かったです。
ALOHA!! Thank you for participating in Dolphin University! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the entire tour! We look forward to your next visit. MAHALO♪
ALOHA!! この度はイルカ大学にご参加いただきありがとうございました!ツアー全体を通じてお楽しみ頂けたようで何よりです!またのご参加をお待ちしております、MAHALO♪
Due to the traffic from the parade, my name wasn't called at the meeting time, which made me a bit anxious. However, everything turned out fine. Since this is also a meeting point for various tours, I think the guides should be more mindful when calling names. The cruise guide was cheerful and had interesting stories. The hamburger was surprisingly delicious! There are also restrooms, so no worries there. We visited several spots where we could see sea turtles, and I was able to see them about twice, but it was just for a moment, so I had to really focus. The sea is beautiful and shallow. When moving from the boat to the sandbar, it gets a bit deep, but you can borrow life jackets, so there’s no need to worry, even for children. They also take you to deeper spots for snorkeling. On the way back, you'll be getting on the bus while still wet, so it's better to prepare a simple change of clothes or bring extra towels. I'm glad I participated.
パレードによる渋滞のためか、集合時間になってもなかなか名前が呼ばれず、ドキドキしました。が、大丈夫でした。ただ、各種ツアーの集合場所でもあるので、ガイドの方が名前を呼ぶのは意識された方がよいかと思います。クルーズガイドの方は明るく話が面白かったです。ハンバーガーもビックリおいしかった!トイレもあり、心配ありません。ウミガメが見えるスポットを複数回ってくれるので、2回ほど見ることができました、が一瞬だったりするので、目を凝らして見ました。海はきれいで遠浅です。船からサンドバーに移動する際、少し深いですが、ライフジャケットを借りられるので、子供でも心配ありませんでした。シュノーケリングに深い場所にも連れて行ってくれます。帰りは濡れたままバスに乗るので、簡単な着替えかタオル多めに用意した方がベターです。参加してよかったです。
I was already excited before it started, but as we boarded the boat and headed out to sea, the beautiful ocean and the feeling of speed made it feel like a light attraction, which really boosted my spirits! The Hawaiian guide spoke Japanese and was funny, so even though there were no other Japanese participants, it was no problem at all; in fact, we became quite friendly! When we finally went up into the air, I was captivated by the view of Waikiki and the beauty of nature from above. Even though it was the highest course, I wasn't scared at all! It was so much fun that I definitely want to do it again!
始まる前からドキドキしてましたが、船に乗って沖に向かうところから綺麗な海と、船のスピード感が軽いアトラクションの様で既にテンションアップ!!笑
ガイドのハワイアンも日本語が喋れるし、おもしろいし、他に参加者の日本人がいなくても全く問題なく、むしろ仲良くなりました!!
いざ空中へ上がる時も、上空からのワイキキの景色や自然の美しさに見とれてしまって、一番高いコースだったのですが全く怖くありませんでした!!
また是非やりたいと思うくらい最高に楽しかったです\(^ω^)/
The view from the sky was amazing! It was pleasant while heading out to sea by boat, and I was able to enjoy the flying time for a long time. Since I was staying at the Hilton, the location was also close. I would like to participate again when I come to Hawaii!
空からの景色が最高でした!
船で沖まで向かうときも気持ちよくて、飛んでる時間も長く堪能できてよかったです。
ヒルトンに宿泊していたので、場所も近かったです。
またハワイに来た時は参加したいと思います!
I had to book a last minute zipline tour so I did it over the phone. The person who helped me was extremely friendly, informative, and efficient. She got my zipline booked and everything went smoothly as planned. I didn't read the voucher carefully but it also included photos, which I didn't know so I paid for it after my zipline experience. I emailed Veltra and they confirmed that the pics were included so I ended up getting a refund for the pics.
I highly recommend Veltra for any of your activitiy needs.
Keep up the great job and Mahalo!

Don't miss the helicopter tour, its something you will never forget
First, we boarded the bus that came to pick us up from the hotel, and it went around to pick up other participants' hotels as well, until the bus was just full (about 10 people) and we headed to Waikiki Beach. The two young, handsome staff members were completely English-only. Since half of the participants were from overseas (mainland America and Korea, perhaps), we boarded the boat in a bilingual atmosphere.
With upbeat music and the increasing speed, our excitement grew! The moments when we bounced on the waves were very thrilling, and it was already quite fun at that point. One man seemed to be suffering from seasickness. The boat moved along energetically, so I recommend motion sickness medication for those who are prone to it. (It felt like the vibe was targeting people in their 30s.)
Although it was English-only, we managed to communicate through gestures and by mimicking other participants, so there were no issues with putting on jackets or stowing bags under the seats. Each pair took turns jumping, and at the moment each pair jumped, everyone waved and welcomed them back with applause, creating a very friendly atmosphere!
They asked if it was okay to splash into the water, and if you answered "OK!", they would drop you into the water a couple of times at the end.
In the end, they casually took photos with us, and it felt like we had a great time playing with the cheerful staff!
まずホテルに迎えに来てくださるバスにのりこみ、
他の参加者の方々のホテルも次々回っていき、バスにちょうど満員(10名かな)のりこんでワイキキビーチへ。
若いイケメンスタッフのお兄さん2名は完全に英語オンリーです。
参加者も海外の方(アメリカ本土と韓国かな?)が半数だったので、バイリンガルな感じでボートにのりこみます。
テンション高めな音楽と、ぐんぐん上がるスピードに期待が高まりました!
海上で飛び跳ねるような瞬間はとてもスリリングで、もうその時点でかなり楽しい。笑
男性がひとり船酔いをしてしまったようでつらそうでした。
テンション高めな感じでぐいぐいボートは進むので、酔いやすい人は酔い止めをおすすめします。
(ノリ的にも30代くらいをターゲットにしてる印象でした)
英語オンリーですが、ジェスチャーと他の参加者の見よう見まねで
なんとなくジャケットを着たりカバンを椅子の下にしまったりと、コミュニケーションには問題なし。
ペアずつ飛んでいきますが、各ペアが飛ぶ瞬間はみんな手を振ってくれたり、帰ってきたら拍手で迎えてくれたりと、とても和やかでした!
「水面にボチャンしていい?」的なことを聞かれるので、OK!と答えれば、最後には水面に2・3回落としてくれます。
最後は気さくに写真を撮ってくれて、陽気なお兄ちゃんたちに遊んでもらったかんじで楽しかったです!
I didn't catch any big fish, but I had a great time in a cozy, friendly atmosphere. I went fishing with lures, and the anglers from Oregon were hitting fish one after another. After switching to a trailer rig with bait and a flasher, I finally had some success. It's a tour I'd love to go on again!
大物は釣れませんでしたが、アットホームな感じで和気藹々と楽しい時間を過ごせました。
ルアーでの釣りをしたのですが、オレゴンからの釣り客さんがヒットの連続で‥
ルアーに餌を付けトレーラー釣りとフラッシャー付きの胴付き仕掛けとチェンジし、やっとでした(^^;
また行きたいツアーです。
It was my first time parasailing, and I had a great time! Since we scheduled it for 5:00 PM, we were able to participate with just the two of us and really enjoyed the cruise.
初パラセーリングでしたが、とっても楽しめました!
17:00からにしたからか、2人だけで参加できてクルーズも満喫できました
I was able to see a lot of dolphins! The staff were all friendly and nice. I could see turtles while snorkeling, but not many fish.
たくさんのイルカが見れました!
スタッフの方もみんな気さくで良い方ばかりでした
シュノーケリングは亀は見れるのですが、あまり魚は見れなかったです
Once the equipment was attached, without a moment to prepare myself mentally, I was soaring into the sky. The view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from above was incredible, and there were moments when the wind would catch us, leading to continuous cheers. It was a fun experience.
器具が装着されると、心の準備をする間もなく、するするすると大空に。上空からのワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドの眺めは最高で、時折、風にあおられるシーンも含め、歓声の連続、楽しい体験でした。
I had a very enjoyable day! First of all, the guide was incredibly fun! She was bright and attentive to her surroundings. On the day of the tour, instead of boarding a boat with only Japanese people, we took an international boat. As a result, it was a smaller group, which I think was great. The BBQ for lunch was also very delicious, and we were able to see many sea turtles.
とても楽しい1日を過ごせました!
まずガイドのお姉さんが最高に楽しい!明るくて周りをしっかり見てくれている方でした。
当日、日本人だけの船には乗らず、インターナショナルな船に乗船。結果、少人数になり良かったと思います。お昼のBBQもとても美味しかったし、ウミガメもたくさん見ることができました。
I was a bit anxious because the pickup time was delayed, but the bus was easy to understand. The plan also included all-you-can-drink options, so I was able to enjoy myself freely! The pool was not crowded, and I was able to ride a lot without any hassle, which was fun! At first glance, I thought it looked scary, but once I got on, it was really enjoyable!
少しピックアップの到着時間が遅れて不安になりましたが、
わかりやすいバスで
プランも飲み放題が付いていたので
自由に楽しむことが出来ました!
プールも混むことなくすんなりたくさん乗れて楽しかったです!
ぱっと見、怖いと思いましたが乗ってしまえばとても楽しかったです!
This was my second time parasailing, and I was able to enjoy it more because the flying time was longer than with the previous company. Most importantly, my family, who were flying for the first time, seemed very satisfied, which was great. The crew was also fun!
パラセイリングは2回目でしたが、前回の会社より飛んでる時間が長くて、より楽しむことができました。何より、初めて飛んだ家族がとても満足していたようなので良かったです。クルーも楽しい人でした!
This is our first time parasailing. My son and I went alone because my younger son decided last minute he wouldn't go. The weather was great but more importantly, the staff were amazing. I would recommend to anyone. I want to go again when I return. Thank you Hawaiian Parasail!!
When we applied, my wife kept refusing because she is not good with heights, but once we actually went up in the air, she forgot her fear due to the amazing scenery and was super excited! We are a middle-aged couple, but I definitely recommend it.
申し込み時、妻が高いところは苦手と申し込みを拒み続けたのですが、
いざ、申し込み 実際に上空まで行くと その景観のすばらしさに怖さも忘れて
超興奮!
中年夫婦ですが、ぜひともお勧めです。
Had so much fun. My first time snorkeling. Michelle was great. Gave Great advice made me feel comfortable in the water right away. Lots of turtles.
My husband likes Hawaii Five-O and wanted to see the places where the series is being filmed. We learned the history of these places as well as what goes on behind the scenes. It was great to have met the owner of the house where one of the scenes was filmed. It was o four hour tour that covered most of the places anyone would want to see in Honolulu. Great landscapes and sceneries.
My family enjoyed the dinner cruise. The Staff were so accommodating to change the menu to their guests preference. I learned a lot which side I should wear my flower. The entertainment is awesome, complete with the proper attire to educate the guests about the Hawaiian tradition, I will highly recommend this dinner cruise to anyone visiting Hawaii .Thanks to Emily of Veltra for helping me book the Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise.
My boyfriend and I attended a morning cruise and it was an absolutely gorgeous day to set sail. Aside from the great weather and beautiful views, Captain Clifton (and his first mate) made the cruise even more enjoyable, with tons of informative facts and joke thrown into the mix. The boat was clean, the supply of drinks varied for adults and children and the day couldn't have been spent any better.
Thanks for the ride!
I participated with my elementary school children. The older child is learning to swim and was able to swim more and more, pulling me along. The younger child swam while holding hands with the guide. We were able to see beautiful fish, and I was very satisfied.
小学生の子供と参加。上の子供はプールをならっており、どんどん泳ぐことができ子供に引っ張ってもらう感じでした。下の子供はガイドさんが手をつないで泳いでくれました。きれいな魚を見ることが出来大満足です。
Dear Yuu & An, thank you for bringing your whole family this time. It was such a beautiful day, and I believe everyone did a great job swimming from one end to the other. Also, when we were walking back from the ocean, we spotted a turtle, and it was a day when only those who still had energy went back to see the turtle. Next time, I hope the children will also get to see the turtle. If you have the opportunity to come to Hawaii again, please come back with everyone. We are always here to welcome you. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
ゆう&あん様、この度はご家族皆さんでお越しいただきましてありがとうございます。とても綺麗な日だったので、左端から右端まで長ーく泳ぎ、皆さんは最後までよく頑張ってくれたと思います。それと海から上がって歩いていた時に亀さんがいるのを見つけて、また改めて元気が残っている方のみで亀を見に海に戻った日でもありましたね。次回はお子様達にも亀さんを見ていただきたいと思っております。またハワイに来る機会がありましたら、是非皆様でまたお越しくださいね。いつでもお持ちしております。本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
The weather was great, and the view of Diamond Head from the boat was amazing!! I was a bit anxious about participating alone, but the staff offered drinks and I was able to chat with other Japanese tourists... I had a really enjoyable time. Also, I was very lucky to see a turtle towards the end! I would like to use this service again.
とても天気が良く、船から見るダイヤモンドヘッドは最高でした!!一人参加ということで少し不安もありましたが、スタッフさんは飲み物とか勧めてくれるし、日本人観光客とお話しすることもできたし…とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
あと終盤に亀を見ることができたのもとてもラッキーでした!
また利用したいと思います。
Great experience. Bus driver very knowledgeable of Arizona memorial. Standing on the memorial floor was very humbling. Recommend this experience to my friends and family.
I would use this company again.
We went as a family of four with our 2-year-old and 5-year-old children. We played in the kids' pool, wave pool, and lazy river, and the kids were thrilled. The time until 3 PM was just right. We rented a cabana, but there were regular chairs with umbrellas available, so I think it wasn't necessary on a weekday during the off-season. There is a service where a Japanese staff member can bring food, but it was a bit inconvenient since there were no call buttons. In our case, they arrived around 1 PM, but we had already purchased our food. It might be a good idea to arrange to meet at noon during the initial greeting. Additionally, ① There are no towels, so make sure to bring your own. ② You probably won't need the free drinks. You can bring one unopened bottle of water, which should be sufficient. ③ Small floaties for kids and arm floaties are allowed.
2歳、5歳の子と家族4人で行きました。子供用プール、波のプール、流れるプールで遊びましたが、子供たちは大喜び、時間も15時までで丁度よかったです。カバナレンタルをしましたが、パラソル付きチェアーが普通に空いていてseason offの平日は必要ないかと思いました。一応食事を日本人スタッフが買ってきてくれるサービスがありますが、呼ぶボタンなどもないので使いづらかったです。うちの場合は13時頃にきましたがもう購入済みでした。最初の挨拶の時に12時に待ち合わせなどするといいかもしれません。その他、①タオルはないので持っていきましょう ②フリードリンクはたぶんいらない。未開封の水1本持ち込み可なのでそれで充分だと思います。 ③子供用の小さい浮輪、腕に付ける浮輪は持ち込み可 でした。
The local area was divided into different activities like movie tours and horseback riding, with a schedule set every 90 minutes.
My husband and I participated in the "Movie Location Tour," "Tropical Garden & Fish Pond Tour," and "Jungle Expedition." The movie locations looked exactly like what we saw in the films! If you're a movie lover, you'll definitely be thrilled! By the way, during the Tropical Garden & Fish Pond Tour, we explored the aquaculture pond by boat, which was also a famous filming location for Jurassic World. The Jungle Expedition had us racing through the mountains in a jeep while enjoying breathtaking views of Kualoa and the ocean. You really need to buckle up and hold on tight, as it shakes you around quite a bit! It's a fun attraction where motion sickness medication is a must.
By the way, the local staff who switch between English, Japanese, and Korean to accommodate guests are just too cool!
現地では映画ツアーや乗馬等で場所が分かれていて、時間ごと(90分?)に時間割が組まれていました。
私たち夫婦は「映画ロケ地ツアー」「トロピカルガーデン&フィッシュポンドツアー」「ジャングルエクスペディション」に参加。
映画ロケ地はまさに映画で観たまんま!映画好きなら興奮しっぱなし間違いなしです!
ちなみにトロピカルガーデン&フィッシュポンドツアーでは養殖池をボートで回りますが、ここもジュラシックワールドの有名シーンの撮影場所でした。
ジャングルエクスペディションはクアロアと海の絶景を見ながらジープで山の中を疾走。
ちゃんとベルトを締めて掴まってないとガンガン頭ぶつけるくらい、激しくゆさぶられます笑
酔い止め必須のおもしろアトラクションです。
それにしても、お客に会わせて英語、日本語、韓国語を使い分ける現地スタッフさん、かっこよすぎです笑
