Oahu
On June 13, we participated as a couple. My wife was feeling very nauseous from fatigue, and I was thinking about giving up, but we finally made it to the meeting point and were picked up. Thank you so much.
My wife made it to the beach but ended up feeling unwell there and waited while lying down (ー ー;) She said it felt nice just to lie down on the beautiful beach. I apologize for the inconvenience.
I thoroughly enjoyed snorkeling for the first time in the beautiful sea! Thanks to the guidance from Chieko and Dan, I was able to enjoy myself safely out in the open water. Having professional guides really makes a difference in terms of peace of mind!
They also provided life jackets and took care of our valuables, allowing us to enjoy the sea without any worries. I’m really grateful for the photos taken while we were in the water. Next time, my wife will join me for a rematch. Of course, we would like to book this tour again (^ ^).
6/13夫婦で参加しました。
妻が疲れからの吐き気がひどく諦めようかと思っていましたが、やっとのことで集合場所に辿り着きピックアップしてもらいました。本当にありがとうございます。
妻はビーチまで行きましたが、ビーチでダウン。ビーチで寝て待っていました(ー ー;)
妻曰く、綺麗なビーチで横になっているだけでも気持ち良かった、とのこと。
ご迷惑をおかけしました。
私は綺麗な海の中、初めてのシュノーケルを満喫!!
チエコさん、ダンさんのガイドがあったからこそ、安心して沖まで楽しむことができました。
やはり専門のガイドさんがいらっしゃると安心度合いが違いますね!
ライフジャケット等も準備していただき、貴重品も安心して預けることができ、何の心配もなく海を心ゆくまで楽しめます。
海に入っている写真を撮っていただけたのも本当にありがたいです。
次回は妻も一緒にリベンジ。もちろんこちらのツアーにお願いします(^ ^)
I was really worried at that time because you seemed to be feeling very unwell, and I wasn't sure if it was okay to take you along. While your wife couldn't see the beautiful underwater world of Hanauma, it seems that Akihiro enjoyed it, which makes us feel relieved. Please make sure to take care of your health and come on the tour in the best condition next time. We look forward to seeing you again. Mahalo!!
本当にあの時はとても具合が悪そうだったので、お連れしても大丈夫なのか心配でした。奥様にはハナウマの綺麗な水中世界を見てはいただけませんでしたが、Akihiro様には満喫していただけたようで私達もホッとしています。是非次回は体調を整えてベストコンディションでツアーにいらしてくださいね。またお会いできるのを楽しみに待っています。Mahalo!!
Highly recommended, fun and friendly coaching. Worth trying.
Noah did a fantastic job with our 13 year old. Great instruction and one on one attention. Made us feel like it was safe to have him in the surf and he he learned right away getting up on the board right from the start. Highly recommend it and especially the one on one for the younger kids.
Thanks so much for writing this awesome review about us! Noa is great and he loves to get all of his students up and riding! We hope we get to surf with your son again soon! Mahalo Nui Loa! :)
I participated with a friend at a height of 120m. The entire group was made up of foreigners (including families) who had great energy, and combined with the cheerful background music, the atmosphere was fun from departure to the end. Even though the waves may seem calm at first glance, the speed picks up significantly as we head offshore, so motion sickness medication is a must. We enjoyed about 8 minutes in pairs, but there is a wait time until it's your turn for parasailing. During the flight, there are sudden ups and downs that keep it exciting, and you might get dropped into the sea a couple of times. Japanese is only understood for the explanation of photo sales and shooting, but the staff is very attentive. There is storage space under the seats for your belongings, so you can bring them on board. Don't forget sunscreen and hydration! It was so much fun that I definitely want to participate again next time.
友人と高さ120mで参加しました。同グループは全員外国人(家族連れ含む)でノリが良く、陽気なBGMも相まって出港から終始楽しい雰囲気です。一見穏やかに見える波でも、ガンガン速度を上げて沖合に向かうので酔い止めは必須です。2人1組で8分ほど楽しむため、パラセイリングの順番が回ってくるまでは待ち時間があります。飛行中は急なアップダウンで楽しませてくれますし、海に2、3回落とされることもあります。日本語は写真販売・撮影の説明程度しか通じませんが、スタッフはよく気にかけてくれます。荷物は座席の下に収納箇所があるので、持ちこんで乗れます。日焼け止めはもちろん、水分補給はも忘れずに!とっても楽しかったので、次回もぜひ参加したいです。
First of all crew was great! Our driver and diver Taylor went out of his way to be helpful .
The experience was average . Not much time on actual scooter. A lot of time sitting on boat then back at shop waiting to be driven back while the video and pictures we being pushed. Wouldn't do it again but not unhappy that I did it once.
The water was warm. Good tips from the driver, but I wasn't really made to feel very welcome, the staff seemed disinterested. 30 minutes went very fast, quite expensive for what it was.
When I went to Hawaii, I had decided to go for big game trolling, so I was looking for a good tour and found this plan.
When I arrived at the meeting place before 6 AM, I was with an American family. By the way, it seems that the boat changes depending on the booking situation at that time. The captain and crew were friendly American guys.
I didn't catch any big fish, but I felt refreshed being out on the ocean off Waikiki all day. If I have another chance, I want to challenge it again. Next time, I hope to catch a big blue marlin. My rating is four stars since I didn't catch anything big.
ハワイに行ったら,大物ねらいのトローリング...と決めていたので
いいツアーはないかと探していたら,このプランを見つけました.
早朝6時前に集合場所に行くと,アメリカ人の家族連れと一緒でした.
ちなみに,船はその時の申込状況で変わるみたいです.
気さくなアメリカのおじさん....という表現が相応しいキャプテンとクルーでした.
大物は釣れなかったけど,一日中,ワイキキ沖の海の上にいて気分爽快でした.
またの機会があったら,チャレンジしたい.次こそは大物のブルーマーリン.
評価は,大物が釣れなかったので★四つ.
My group consisted of a party of 6 prepaid guests. 4 riders and 2 observers. I was surprised and disappointed when one of the female staff convinced us that one of our observers should not attempt to get into the boat and in fact went out of her way to tell her she should not go. She went back to the car to wait for us and we were all extremely disappointed when we saw that you could step right in and out of the boat. The parasailing experience was fine. Upon our return the driver of the boat announced that we were going to stop and attempt to help another boater who had gotten stuck during low tide. Definitely a nice gesture on his part but when he had all of the males from our boat climb onto the other boat and stand on the high edge for ballast I felt he went a little too far!! Especially considering one was a 14 year old boy...nothing like opening yourself up to a lawsuit if someone had been hurt!! After 3 failed attempts to dislodge the other boat we were finally returned to the dock. I am all for being a good samaratin but in the future I suggest Hawaiian Parasail return their paying customers to the dock and go back on their own time to rescue boaters.
Maita'i Catamaran is an easy cheap way to enjoy a short sail off the coast of Waikiki. Their location is walkable from just about anywhere in Waikiki (which is only about 1.5 miles from east to west), and my family did a quick 90 minute sail. They allow 0-3 year olds on for free, so for my wife and son and I it was a real bargain.
Most boating trips pad your cost by including free booze (which can make you seasick, or might have disappointingly little effect if you are from higher altitudes), so I was glad to see it sold a la carte here (quite cheaply).
Crew was friendly and approachable, and we got to be on a boat in paradise. They use their motor to get to and from shore efficiently, but most of the time the motor is off and they are just sailing, which is ideal. We saw a dolphin and 2 sea turtles too.
I just feel bad that between making sure my 3-year old got off safely and remembering all of our things I totally forgot to tip them. Hopefully this review will help. Book them now!
Great and terribly convenient to get picked up on time, oriented to the experience and put your head under the water to see lots of fish...our driver Kevin was informative, on time and was great conversation for our family group of 8. Would go back any day any time...
The weather was great, and we caught a lot of fish! They cooked the freshly caught fish deliciously with a secret spice, and I had a wonderful time making great memories with my father. It was also lucky to see wild dolphins. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to do it!
気候が良く、たくさん釣れました!釣りたての魚を、シークレットスパイスで豪快に美味しく調理してくださり、楽しい時間で、父といい思いでができました。野生のイルカが見れたのもラッキーでした。またハワイにいける機会あれば、お願次第です
Great experience and our tour guide was awesome. Very knowledgable and provided interesting facts and info!
Hi, Glad you had a good time, hope we see you again.
Dan
This is my second time boarding. It's worth it just to go out to sea at a reasonable price and see the indescribably beautiful cobalt blue ocean. Of course, the view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from offshore is fantastic. Additionally, it's very convenient to board from the beach next to Sheraton Waikiki Resort.
二回目の乗船になります。リーズナブルな価格で沖へ出て、なんとも表現できないコバルトブルーの美しい海を見るだけでも、十分価値があります。もちろん、沖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す。また、シェラトンワイキキリゾート横のビーチから乗船できるのでとても便利です。
Down loading pictures a nightmare everything else was great
I read the reviews and thought, "This is it!" so I decided to participate. Just like the reviews mentioned, I rented a bike and first went to Kailua town to order pancakes to-go from Boots & Kimo's. During the 30-minute wait, I went to buy some Lanikai soap, then returned to the shop to have lunch with pizza and took a boogie board to the beach. After that, I went back to the shop, grabbed a snorkeling set, and rode my bike to Lanikai Beach. However, traveling with just two women, the boogie board was heavy, and even though I put on the snorkeling gear at Lanikai, I couldn't make it to the rocky areas and didn't get to see any fish. I regretted not just going to the middle of Lanikai Beach instead, so I give it four stars.
I was in a hurry, so I forgot to put on sunscreen when going to town, and I ended up with a bad t-shirt tan (-_-;)
口コミを見て、これだ!を思い参加しましたが、口コミと同じ様に自転車を借り、まずカイルアの街へ行きブーツアンドキモスのパンケーキをテイクアウトで注文し、30分の待ち時間にラニカイの石鹸を買いに行き、ショップに戻ってランチのピザと、ブギーボードを持ってビーチに行って、その後ショップに戻って、シュノーケルセットを持って自転車でラニカイビーチに行きました。。。。が、女二人の旅では、ブギーボードは重く、ラニカイでシュノーケルのを着けるも岩場までは行く事も出来ず、魚を見る事は出来ませんでした。シュノーケルは諦めて、ラニカイビーチの中央あたりまで行けば良かったと後悔が残りましたので、星4つです。
慌てていたので、街に行く時に日焼け止めを塗り忘れてしまい、しっかりTシャツ焼けしてしまいました(-_-;)
This was my first trip to Hawaii. I learned that Kailua Beach and Lanikai Beach have been chosen as the number one beautiful beach in the United States, and I really wanted to go there. However, it was quite a distance from Waikiki where I was staying, so I used this tour. Since it was my first time in Hawaii, I decided not to rent a car or use THE BUS, and I was glad I chose this tour, which took care of the round-trip transportation!
I was able to rent a bike on-site for a fee, so I quickly rented one and headed to Kailua Beach first. The waves were higher than I expected, and the water seemed a bit murky, so I soon made my way to Lanikai Beach! The distance from Kailua to Lanikai was greater than I thought, so having a bike was definitely a plus.
Lanikai Beach had almost no waves, and the water was incredibly clear and beautiful! When I put on the snorkel I rented and went into the water... there were so many cute little fish! It was actually my first time snorkeling, but the calm, shallow water made it easy to enjoy.
After snorkeling, I got hungry, so I rode my bike to Kailua Town! I used a lunch ticket to go to a salad shop. I thought I would be having a salad, but it turned out to be a hearty sandwich. It was delicious, though!
Feeling satisfied, I then headed to Whole Foods Market! I bought granola bars and bulk granola with fruit for breakfast the next day. For those who want to be active, having a bike is definitely recommended!
今回、初めてのハワイ旅行でした。
カイルアビーチ・ラニカイビーチが全米ナンバーワンに選ばれた事のある美しいビーチだと知って、是非行きたいと思ったのですが、宿泊しているワイキキからは結構距離があり、こちらのツアーを利用しました。
初めてのハワイという事で、レンタカーやTHE BUSの利用はせず、往復の交通への心配がないこちらのツアーにして良かったです!
現地で有料で自転車を借りられるということで、迷わず借り、まずはカイルアビーチへ。思ったより波が高くて少し海が濁っているように感じたので、程なくしてラニカイビーチへ!
カイルアからラニカイへは、思ったより距離があったので自転車があって良かったです。
ラニカイビーチは波がほとんど無くて、その分透明度が高くて本当に綺麗‼︎ お借りしたシュノーケルをつけて海に潜ったら…可愛らしいお魚がたくさん‼︎
実は初めてのシュノーケルだったのですが、浅くて波のない穏やかな海だったので安心して楽しめました。
シュノーケルを楽しんだ後は、お腹が減ってきたので自転車でカイルアタウンへ!ランチチケットを利用してサラダのお店へ行きました。てっきりサラダを食べられると思っていたら、ヴォリューム満点のサンドイッチでした。笑 でも、美味しかったです。
お腹も満たされたので、今度はWhole Foods Marketへ!翌日の朝食用にグラノーラバーで、量り売りのグラノーラとフルーツを買いました。
アクティブに動きたい人には、自転車があった方が断然オススメです。
We participated in the 10:30 pickup with two people. We boarded the yacht with 4 to 5 groups of two, waiting our turn while wearing life jackets. Since we were the last in line, we felt a bit nauseous from the yacht's rocking while waiting, but once we took off, it was exhilarating and we felt better immediately. I think those who are prone to motion sickness should take some medication. Surprisingly, it felt so light that it was not scary at all. We even had the chance to look down at a turtle that approached the yacht. We had requested photos for an additional $30, which we received when we got off the yacht.
10:30ピックアップの回に2名で参加しました。
ヨットに2名×4~5組で乗り込み、救命胴衣をつけつつ順番を待ちました。
私たちは順番が最後だったので、待っている間にヨットの揺れで少し気分が悪くなりましたが、
飛んだら爽快で、すくに治りました。弱い方は酔い止めを飲まれたほうが良いと思います。
予想外にふわっと浮くのでまったく怖くありませんでした。たまたま、ヨットに近づいてきたカメを上から眺めることもできました。
+30$だかで写真をお願いしていましたので、ヨットを降りるときにいただきました。
It was such a sight to see. The two men were very polite and helpful. I would definitely recommend this to my friends.
My family and I could not have been any happier with the level of service and quality of excellence this adventure provided us! All the staff were friendly(especially our driver) and professional which made parasailing even better. We did the 300ft line and next time we are going all the way to 1000! Thanks so much and we definitely recommend them for any future parasailing trips you may have.
sent 1 guest on this and he said the right package for someone who wanted to do a snorkel package and at a great location and with safety in a film and guides to assist the least experienced persons and You do not have to be a swimmer to do this and will see Great sights in water within your comfort zone of a few feet. Highly recommend.
Hi, im glad a good time was had.
Thanks,
Dan
For my first activity in Hawaii, I booked parasailing, and during the transfer, I had a cheerful driver who made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. The parasailing was fantastic as well; I was lifted very high, and the view was absolutely beautiful.
初めてのハワイでのアクティビティとして、パラセイリングを予約させていただきましたが、送迎時には陽気なドライバーで終始楽しくさせていただき、パラセイリングについても、とても高く上げていただき、景色がとてもよかったです。
First time to Hawaii I picked this tour. What an awesome experience. Friendly staff and pickup/drop off made it easy. Will do it again with the family.
Absolutely amazing cruise. The deinks were great. Nice captain & DJ. I really enjoyed it.
I cannot say enough about what a great time my husband and I had on this outing! We had never kayaked or gone snorkeling. Thankfully Natalye and Bailey, our guides, were very helpful. I would do this again any time. Thanks for a great experience!
I highly recommend this experience as you can see sea turtles and tropical fish up close. Since you'll be in the water for quite a while, it's a good idea to bring a hoodie or something to keep warm. There are no lockers available, so you'll need to put your belongings in a box with everyone else's, so I suggest bringing only the essentials like some money (for purchasing DVDs, etc.) and a bath towel.
ウミガメ、熱帯魚が超まじかで見れる貴重な体験ができるのでお勧めです。水につかる時間が結構あるので体が冷えないようにパーカー等を持って行かれることやロッカーがなくボックスに荷物を皆と一か所に入れるので必要最低限のお金(DVD等を購入するため)やバスタオルくらいを携帯することをお勧めします。
We participated in our honeymoon trip. Although we didn't speak much English, the atmosphere with the drivers and crew was great, and we had a wonderful time! I’m not good with roller coasters, so I was really scared before flying, but it turned out to be not scary at all, and I truly enjoyed it! The views of Hawaii were so breathtaking that I didn't even have a moment to feel scared!
Also, we were able to take photos, and they provided them on an SD card, which we purchased for $30. I thought it was a bit expensive, but since they took so many pictures, I’m glad we bought it.
Additionally, we tipped when we got off. Most participants gave $20, so I gave $20 as well. I think it's a good idea to have some cash on hand.
新婚旅行で参加しました。
英語があまり喋れない私達でしたが、
送迎の方、クルーの方の雰囲気がよく
楽しい時間でした!
後、私はジェットコースターとかも
苦手なタイプなので、
飛ぶ前はとても怖かったですが、
全然怖くなくって
本当に楽しめました!
ハワイの景色に感動して
怖さを感じる隙も無いくらいでした!
そして、写真を撮っていただき
それをSDカードで渡してくれるという
事でしたので、30ドルで購入しました。
ちょっと高かったかな?とは
思ったのですが、沢山写真を撮って
頂いていたので買って良かったです。
また、降りる際に
チップを払いました。
参加された方ほとんどが
20ドルでしたので、
20ドルお渡ししました。
なので多少のお金は
持っていた方がいいと思います。
A colleague who joined us had an accident where they couldn't surface after getting into the sea, but it was still fun (laughs).
I recommend keeping breakfast light!
It took a little time to reopen the parachute, so everyone felt a bit seasick (^_^;).
The view from above was breathtaking! ♪
一緒に参加した同僚が、海に浸かってから浮上できないというアクシデントに合いましたが、それはそれで楽しかったです(笑)
朝食は控えめで行くことをオススメします‼
パラシュートを再度ひらくのに少し時間がかかったのでみんな少し船酔いぎみでした(^_^;)
上空からの景色は圧巻でした♪
On the morning of the day, it was raining, but it quickly turned into clear weather. There were three groups on the boat, two of which were Japanese. The key points were in broken Japanese, so it was okay not to speak English. This was my second challenge in life, and it was wonderful. I brought my camera, but I couldn't take any pictures. However, I was able to purchase photos taken by others on an SD card for $30.
当日の朝、雨が降っていましたが見る見るうちに快晴になりました。船には3組、2組は日本人でした。要所はカタコトですが日本語でなので、英語が話せなくてもOKでした。人生2度目の挑戦でしたが、素晴らしかったです。カメラは持って行きましたが取れませんでした。しかし、写真を撮って貰ってSDカードで購入することができました。30ドルでした。
At first, I was nervous getting on the scooter, but I quickly got used to it and enjoyed the underwater scenery. I also had a great time with my first stand-up paddle in the shallow waters, making it a fulfilling tour. Next time I visit Hawaii, I want to invite my parents and join again! However, the price for the underwater photos was a bit high... but since it's a memory, I ended up buying them anyway (laughs).
最初はドキドキでスクーターに乗り込みましたが、すぐに慣れ、水中の様子を楽しむことができました。浅瀬での初スタンダップパドルも楽しめて満喫のツアーでした。次回ハワイ訪問時は両親を誘ってまた参加したいです!!ただ、少し水中で撮っていただける写真のお値段が高かったのが…でも思い出なので買ってしまいましたが(笑)
Once we took off, we quickly ascended to a height of 150 meters! I'm not great with heights, but I wasn't scared at all. The view of Hawaii from 150 meters up was amazing, and the breeze felt wonderful—it was the best! ^ ^ There is an additional fee, but they also took photos for us, which made for great memories.
一度飛び立つと、あっというまに150メートルの高さまで上昇!私は高いところは苦手な方ですが、まったく怖くはありませんでした。150メートルの高さから見るハワイの景色はすばらしく、風も気持ちよくて最高でした^ ^
別途料金はかかりますが、写真も撮ってもらえて、いい思い出になりました。
