Oahu
You must do this!!! Most fun crazy safe experience we have ever done! So happy we did it here in Hawaii and especially with all the kind people here!
I was honestly a bit anxious since it was overseas and had fewer reviews compared to other tours. We waited on the first floor of the hotel for our pickup, wondering if they would really come. However, they arrived almost on time and were friendly from the start. There were three groups of foreign tourists, and they made sure to engage with everyone equally, which was wonderful.
I saw reviews mentioning that valuables could be stored, and I thought they would be kept in the car, but instead, they were stored in a lockbox on the beach. Also, I was instructed to wear my swimsuit beforehand, so I participated in just my swimsuit from the beginning. However, being in the water for a long time can get cold, so changing clothes is definitely necessary.
While there were some minor shortcomings in the guidance, both Dan, the husband, and Chie, the wife, were very nice people, making it a tour you can enjoy with peace of mind. I think it's recommended. Even if the weather is bad or we didn't see any sea turtles, that's just nature, so it's to be expected.
海外の、しかも他のツアーに比べて口コミも少なかったところだったので正直不安でした。ホテルの1階で待機してピックアップしてもらう形でしたので、本当に来るのかなぁ…と。
ですが、ほぼ定刻通りに迎えに来てくれて、尚且つ最初から気さくに話してくれ、外国人観光客と一緒の3組だったのですがちゃんと全員にバランスよく話し掛けてくれる気の遣える素晴らしい方です。
貴重品が預けられるという口コミを見ましたが、てっきり車の中に保管するのかと思っていたら砂浜に鍵の掛かる箱に保管をしました。
あとは、事前に水着を着用しとくように指示があったので最初から水着だけで参加したのですが、ずっと水に入っていると寒くなるので、やはり着替えは必要ですね。
若干案内不足なところは否めませんが、旦那さんのダンさんと奥様のチエさん共に非常に良い人で、安心して楽しめるツアーですのでオススメだと思います。
天気が悪いとか、海ガメにあえなかったとか言ってもそれは自然が相手なのですから当然のことだと思います。
The shuttle ride was good,, picked us up at our motel. The snorkimg was good too but the snorkel mask weren't very good
My husband and I were disappointed with the tour guide. We felt he had a attitude about him and really didn't want to be there. At times we thought he was being rude in his manor and attitude. We went on another tour and the guide was so different and really acted like he wanted to be there. It made a big difference on the tour and made it much more enjoyable. The tour itself was great, but it could of been a lot nicer if the guide was more interested in the people on his bus and what he was doing.
I'm so sorry, who was your driver?
The boat rocked, but since I took motion sickness medication beforehand, it was actually enjoyable. The staff was cheerful and fun, and before I knew it, we were flying—laughs.
I think the flight lasted about 10-15 minutes, but during that time, I was just filled with excitement. Everything else became unimportant—laughs.
There was only one other group besides me, so we didn't spend too long on the boat, but I think the more groups there are, the longer you'll be on the boat, so that's a matter of luck.
Also, I bought photos at the end, but when I looked at them after returning to Japan, there were about 30 pictures of someone completely different, which was disappointing. Even though it was on a CD-R, I should have checked during my stay.
For those who will experience this in the future, don't forget to check the photos!
船は揺れましたが、事前に酔い止めを飲んだのでむしろ楽しめる程度の揺れでした。
スタッフも陽気で楽しかったし、何より飛ぶまでの手際が良く気づいたら飛んでました笑
飛ぶ時間は10-15分程度だったと思いますが、飛んでいる間はただただ興奮しっぱなし。
全てがどうでもよくなります笑
私の他に1組だけだったのでそれほど長くは船の上にいませんでしたが、組数が多くなるほど船上での時間がおおくなるのでそこは運かなと思いました。
あと、最後に写真を購入したのですが日本に帰ってから見たら全く別人の写真が30枚ほど入っていてガッカリ。
CD-Rだったとはいえ、滞在中に確認しとくべきでした。
これから体験する方は、写真の確認も忘れずに!!
Since our reservation was at 8:00 in the morning, it turned out that we were the only three people there. We requested 150 meters, and it felt really nice to enjoy the refreshing morning air. Next time, I would like to request the longest option of 180 meters.
朝、8:00からの予約だったせいかなんと、私たち3人だけでした。150メートルをお願いしたんですが、朝の爽やかな空気を満喫して本当に気持ち良かったです。今度は一番長い180メートルでお願いしたいです。
Had the best fun and luckily had some great waves we could Surf the kayaks on too. Definitely recommend if you are a watersport lover
I participated in parasailing for the first time, and it was a lot of fun. I was scared before actually doing it, but once I tried it, it wasn't as scary as I thought. In fact, it was calm up in the air, and it felt great.
初めてパラセイリングに参加しましたが
とても楽しかったです。
実際にやる前までは怖かったのですが、
実際にやってみると思ったほど怖く無かったです。
むしろ上空では穏やかで、気持ちがよかったです。
What can I say other than it was amazing. Completely astounding and phenomenal views of Waikiki. This is a must do for anyone. Not scarry at all if you think it will be. Had a blast!
Due to local circumstances, I couldn't take lessons directly on the beach, so I took lessons at a surf shop and made my way to the beach on my own. I was really anxious, but at the water's edge, the guide was there to assist me, so I was able to safely head out to sea.
After that, it was incredibly fun, and we went to a deserted island, taking a break to paddle around before returning, which wrapped up the morning session. The second round was tough physically, so it was just right.
For lunch after stand-up paddleboarding, there were several dining options available, and the pizza from a place just next door was incredibly delicious. I would love to go back.
In the afternoon, we had the freedom to choose activities like snorkeling in Kailua or strolling around the town, which allowed me to adjust to my own pace, so that was great.
I would like to use this service again for activities in Kailua next time.
地区の事情で、浜辺で実際にやりながらのレッスンは受けられず、サーフショップでのレッスンをうけ浜辺へは自力で行きました。めちゃくちゃ不安でしたが、波打ち際ではちゃんと案内人がい手助けしてくれたので無事に沖にでれました。
それからは、めちゃくちゃ楽しくて無人島まて行き、休憩がてらブラフラして帰ってくるコースで午前は終了しました。体力的に2週目はキツかったので、ちょうど良かったです。
Sup後の食事は用意されているご飯処がいくつかあり、ピザ数件隣のピザがめちゃくちゃ美味しかったです。また行きたいくらい。
午後はカイルアでシュノーケリングやカイルアの街を散歩等自由に選ばせてもらえたのたので、自分の状態に合わせられたので、良かったです。
また次回、カイルアでアクティビティする際は利用したいです。
I had gone parasailing in Saipan several times, but this was my first time in Hawaii. In Hawaii, you can choose the height, fly with multiple people (in Saipan, it's about 45 meters for one person), request photos, and even get a nice splash in the ocean at the end—it was truly amazing! I considered other companies, but I made the right choice by opting for the one that offered photos (since my digital camera takes grainy and blurry shots, I left it to the professionals with a DSLR★), the location was very convenient (right in front of the Hilton★), and the captain's skills were excellent (you can choose to get your feet, half-body, or full-body splashed). I highly recommend it!!! By the way, after much deliberation about the height, I ultimately chose 90 meters★ (I thought it would be disappointing if the photos were too far away, and even considering the $30 for photos and tips, it was within a reasonable price range). Also, I never get motion sickness, but whenever I get on a small boat, I always take motion sickness medication, no matter how short the trip is (based on my diving experience).
パラセイルはサイパンでも何度かやっていましたが、ハワイは今回初めてでした。 ハワイはなんといっても、高さが選べて×複数で飛行でき(サイパンは45mくらい×1人乗り)、写真も頼め、最後に海にポチャっとつけてもらえるなど、至れり尽くせりで感動しました! 他社とも迷いましたが、写真を頼めて(デジカメは豆粒&ブレるので一眼レフにお任せして正解★)、場所がとても近くて(ヒルトンの目の前の海★)、キャプテンの腕も絶妙(足ポチャ・半身ポチャ・全身ポチャ選べます)、とてもオススメです!!! ちなみに私は高さを迷いに迷った挙げ句、結局90メートルにしました★(写真が遠すぎたら残念な気がした&写真の30ドルとチップを見越しても手の届く金額なので) あと、私はのりもの酔いは全くしませんが、小さな船に乗るときは、どんなに短時間でも必ず酔い止めを飲んでいます(ダイビングでの経験上)
Experience the thrill of the sea and sky with a thrilling parasailing adventure! Parasailing by Extreme Parasail at a height of 150 meters was unexpectedly fun, and the duration was great.
空中散歩で海と空をスリリングに体感!パラセイリング by エキストリームパラセイル =150メートルの高さはなかなか予想外で楽しく、時間が長くよかったです。
Wow, breathtaking views! Was nervous at first but needed not be. It was not scary at all and well worth it. A must do for all.
I experienced parasailing at a height of 90 meters! The wind was very strong that day, and it was thrilling enough to make me think I might fall, but it was so much fun! However, my partner is afraid of heights, so they were really scared! Even I, who usually isn't that bothered, was quite nervous at 90 meters! I thought the staff would only speak English, but they occasionally spoke Japanese too (including some Japanese jokes, haha). They were very friendly, and I was really satisfied! They also offered tips and photo sales, so it might be a good idea to bring some money! (By the way, I came empty-handed that day.) After the rain, there seemed to be a rainbow behind us, and I hesitated to buy a photo, but I decided against it because of the backlight (laughs). There might be opportunities to capture photos with rainbows, so I definitely recommend it! I requested a shuttle, but there is a boat right near the Hilton Hawaiian Village, so if you're staying nearby, you can easily walk back.
高さ90mのパラセーリングを体験しました!この日風がとても強く、落ちるんじゃないかと思ったくらいスリルがありましたがとても楽しかったです!ただ相方は高所恐怖症のため、もうビビりまくり!普段それほどでもない私でも90mの高さにはさすがにビビりました!スタッフの方も英語オンリーだと思っていたのですが、ちょいちょい日本語を話してくれるので、(日本のギャグも。笑)とてもフレンドリーな方達でとても満足しました!チップと写真の販売なんかもしていたので、ある程度、
お金は持っていった方が良いかもしれないです!(ちなみに私はこの日手ぶらで来ちゃいました。)雨が降ったあと背後に虹が出ていたみたいで、写真を買おうか迷いましたが、逆光なのでやめました(笑)もしかしたら、そういった虹が出ている写真も撮れるかもしれないので、ぜひオススメです!送迎を頼んだのですが、ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジからすぐの所に船があるので、近くにお泊まりの方は徒歩でも十分帰れます。
It was my first time paragliding, and it was so much fun. I booked for 90 meters, but there was another foreign family with us, and since it was the last time slot, I think we flew over 90 meters.
初めてのパラセイリングでしたが、とても楽しかったです。
90メートルで予約しましたが、私達ともう1組外人の家族、そして最終の時間帯であったため90メートル以上飛んでたと思います。
I had a great time on this trip. We were running a bit late due to a road being closed,but that didn't seem to be an issue. I liked that they called to confirm that we were still coming. The crew was great and pretty much left us to just enjoy the ride after they went through safety and other useful instructions.
We went out a decent ways but not too far out to hit the really rough waters (granted I like big waves so I would have been fine with the rougher waters). If there was any interesting wild life, they pointed it out so everyone could see.There's a drink bar. I didn't really use this for anything beyond soda. I did buy one of their cups and still think it was worth it. It's a useful cup. As for space on the boat, there was never an issue with not having enough room to look out over the railing.
Things my husband and I enjoyed about the trip:
> The view - it was quite beautiful
> The fact that it was simple - we really didn't want to do a dinner cruise or be out on a giant boat. All we wanted was to get out on the water and enjoy the view and this was absolutely perfect for that.
> Meeting new people - we had several good conversations with the people on the boat. I rather enjoyed this and it made the trip that much better.
> Sitting on the netting - it was really neat to watch the water through the netting (also comfortable to sit on)
Over all it was a very excellent experience and was exactly what we wanted. I would have been happy spending all day out on the boat. If I ever end back up in the area, I would use them again.
I had only done snorkeling in Okinawa before. The sea in Okinawa was beautiful, but Hanauma Bay was incomparably more stunning.
On the day of the tour, a cheerful guide came to pick us up at the meeting point. The guide spoke Japanese very well and chatted with us casually during the drive. Thanks to that, we arrived at Hanauma Bay in no time. We received a briefing on sea etiquette and swimming techniques while putting on our fins and life jackets, and then we were off to the ocean! Perhaps due to the prior briefing, we were able to move around freely! When we moved to a slightly deeper area, a school of fish appeared right in front of us! I had never seen such a school of fish before!! After that, we were informed by the guide's friend about where to find sea turtles, and we set off to search for them. We successfully spotted a sea turtle. Although we shouldn't touch them, the turtle approached us closely, perhaps because it was used to people. It was so close that I was worried we might accidentally touch it.
After thoroughly enjoying Hanauma Bay, we were given well-chilled water and Hawaiian snacks on our way back. I was very grateful for that consideration, as swimming took more energy than I expected.
Next time I go to Hawaii, I would like to request the same guide again.
これまでに沖縄でしかシュノーケリングをしたことがありませんでした.沖縄の海もきれいでしたが,ハナウマ湾は沖縄とは比べ物にならないくらいきれいでした.
当日はピックアップ場所に陽気なガイドさんが迎えに来てくれました.ガイドさんは日本語がとても上手で,移動の車内でも気さくに話しかけてくれます.おかげであっという間にハナウマ湾に到着.
足ヒレ,ライフジャケットの装着時に海でのマナー,泳ぎ方のレクチャーを受け,いざ海へ!事前レクチャーのおかげか移動も自由自在に!水深が少し深いところへ移動すると,魚の群れが目の前に!あんな魚群は初めて見ました!!その後はガイドさんの友人からウミガメがいる場所を教えてもらい,ウミガメ捜索へ.無事にウミガメを発見できました.ウミガメは触ってはいけないのですが,ヒトに慣れているせいかウミガメからグイグイ近づいてきます.触ってしまうのではないかハラハラするくらい至近距離でした.
ひとしきりハナウマ湾を満喫し,帰り際にはよく冷えた水とハワイのお菓子をいただきました.水の中は思ったより体力をつかうので,その気遣いがとてもうれしかったです.
次回ハワイに行くときはまた同じ方にガイドをお願いしたいと思います.
Parasailing with my friends and it was so much fun!!! I'm sure I ll do it again when I go to hawaii again!!!
I have experienced this for five consecutive years! The shuttle trolley adds to the excitement, and the refreshing feeling of easily viewing Waikiki Beach from the sky is the best!!
5年連続で体験しました!
送迎のトロリーも気分を盛り上げ、簡単に空からワイキキビーチを眺められる爽快感は最高ですよ!!
I went with three friends during summer vacation (around September)! We split into two groups! The view from above the ocean was amazing and it became a wonderful memory!!! I put my phone in a waterproof bag and took it up with me to capture the scenery from above (laughs). It’s also possible for the two people waiting to take pictures of us flying! You should definitely experience it at least once! It's the best!
大学の夏休み(9月ごろ)に友達と4人で行ってきました!
2人ずつに分かれて乗りました!
海の上からの景色は最高でとてもいい思い出になりました!!!
携帯を防水の袋に入れて上空に持って行き、上からの景色を撮影したりもできました(笑)待っている2人に飛んでいる姿を撮影してもらうことも可能です!
一度経験してほいたほうがいいです!最高です!
This is emerald green!
The color of the sea was very beautiful to look at.
The transparency of the sea was a bit disappointing.
The pancakes at Kimo's were indeed delicious.
これぞエメラルドグリーン!
海の色で見る分には、とてもキレイでした。
海の透明度はいまいちで、少し残念でした。
キモズのパンケーキは、やはり美味しかったです。
Fabulous! Great experience with great views of waikiki. . The guys were very personable. Definitely recommend
Fantastic time. Friendly crew. Great photos to take home with us
Absolutely wonderful day! Super friendly folks start to finish. Would definitely recommend.
It was so awesome. I would definitely want to try this again next time :)
The explanations were all in English, and I didn't understand them at all, but somehow I managed. The parasailing itself was very pleasant with beautiful scenery and a bit of thrill. The hotel transfer was also well organized.
説明がすべて英語で全く説明の意味がわかりませんでしたが、何とかなりました。パラセイリング自体は美しい景色と少しのスリリングでとても気持ちがよかったです。ホテルへの送迎もしっかりとしていました。
I went surfing near Kapiolani Park in Waikiki. The instructor was a local, and he quickly remembered my face and name, giving necessary instructions in broken Japanese. Everyone else was a beginner, so the instructor was pushing the board for us when we were catching waves. I found it a bit lacking for my level. He also took pictures of me surfing, which I bought as a keepsake. It's a nice memento.
ワイキキのカピオラニ公園近くでのサーフィンでした。インストラクターは現地の人でしたが、ちゃんと顔と名前をすぐ覚えくれて、必要な指示はカタコトの日本語でしてくれました。私以外は全員初心者だったので、インストラクターは波に乗る時ボードを押してくれていました。私にはちょっと物足りなかったかな。波乗りしてる写真も撮ってくれたので記念に買いました。いい記念です。
Aloha! Next time, I definitely recommend a private lesson for a thorough level-up! Please stop by again when you come to Hawaii!
アロハ! 次回は是非 プライベートレッスンで じっくりレベルアップ! レッスンをお勧めいたします!
また ハワイにお越しの際は 是非お立ち寄りくださいね!
My 49-year-old mother participated because of my daughter. It was her first time, but she managed to stand up once. My daughter was surfing really well. Being young is wonderful. The staff were all kind and pleasant.
娘の付き合いで49歳の母も頑張って参加しました。初めてでしたが1度だけたてました。
娘はミルミル上手に波乗りしてました。若いって素敵。
スタッフはみんな優しくて感じいいですよ。
It's a sport that anyone can enjoy, regardless of age!
Please come and challenge yourself again this year!
年齢に関係なく楽しめるスポーツです♪
是非 今年もチャレンジしに いらしてくださいね!
I was nervous participating alone without speaking English, but it was great to be in the same group as Japanese people. Once you get out to the sea, you end up being alone anyway, so I don't think there's any need to worry about participating solo. Riding the waves by yourself is difficult, but the staff pushes you at just the right moment, making it easy to catch the waves. However, as a beginner, the board was really big, and paddling was very challenging.
英語も話せずのひとり参加したのでドキドキでしたが、日本の方と同じグループだったので良かったです。海に出ると結局は一人になるので、ひとり参加でも不安になることは無いと思います。自分で波に乗るのは難しいですが、スタッフがちょうど良いタイミングで押してくれるので簡単に波に乗ることが出来ました。ただ、初心者だったのでボードがすごく大きくパドルで進むのがとっても大変でした。
Aloha! Many people become friends during the lessons, and surfing is a fun sport. Please do challenge yourself to try it again when you come to Hawaii next time!
アロハ! レッスン中に 仲良くなるかたも多く、 サーフィンは楽しいスポーツです。
是非 次回もハワイにお越しの際は チャレンジしてみてくださいね!
Depending on the weather and sea conditions, I was able to kayak on a calm day, which provided great views and was enjoyable. The duration was not too long, and the staff's response was also good.
天候や海の状況次第ですが、穏やかの日にカヤックが出来たので、景色がよく、楽しめもした。
時間も長時間ではなく、スタッフの対応もよかったです。
