I was right to do it with my friends ^ ^
It was so much fun!!!!!!!
I want to do it again when I come to Hawaii~ ^ ^

友達とやって正解でした^ ^
とても楽しかったです！！！！！
またハワイにきたらやりたい〜^ ^

I was a bit worried about parasailing since I'm not good with heights, but my sister really wanted to try it, so I decided to give it a shot!!! At first, I was scared, but once we went up, I was amazed by the incredible view☆ I asked the staff to take pictures from below (which costs extra), but once we were up there, I realized I had some spare time and regretted not bringing my phone with me, haha. I really wanted to take pictures from the sky too!!!

The landing was also handled well, and it was soooo much fun☆ Next time I go, I definitely want to bring my phone up with me and challenge myself again (^ー^)

パラセーリングで、高いところが苦手で初めはどうかな。。。と思っていたのですが、妹からのしたいという希望があり挑戦してみました！！！初めは怖かったけど、上に上がったら最高の景色に感動しました☆下からの写真はスタッフさんにお願いしたのですが(有料です)、上に上がったらいがいと余裕もあり携帯を持っていけばよかったと後悔w　上空からの写真も撮りたかったーーー！！！
着水もしてもらって、とーーーっても楽しかったです☆
次に行ったときもは、しっかり携帯も上空に持っていってチャレンジしたいと思います(^ー^)

This is my second time in Hawaii! This time, my wife and I went parasailing for the first time.

We had a great time with two other Japanese couples and a family with a Japanese wife, making a total of four groups.

The pickup was on time and very close to the hotel, which was easy to find.

It was early in the morning in mid-October, but the wind felt nice as we went higher and higher, and my wife and I were super excited to see the boat getting smaller!

The view of Waikiki Beach and the famous hotels from the ocean was truly amazing!

The price was reasonable, but tips are separate, so be sure to prepare for that!

ハワイは2回目！今回は思いきり遊ぶぞということで妻と初パラセーリングでした。

同じ日本人カップル2組と奥様が日本人のご家族と計4組で当日は楽しませてもらいました。

迎えも時間通りにホテルのすぐ近くまで来てくれてわかりやすかったです。

10月の中旬の朝一番からでしたが風も気持ちよくドンドン高くなっていき、ボートが小さくなる姿に妻とテンションマックスになりました！

沖から見るワイキキビーチや有名なホテルの景色も本当に最高でした！

お値段も手頃でしたがチップは別なので用意は必要ですよ^_^

It was really great. There were a lot of dishes, but it was a bit difficult to line up. The show was wonderful.

すごく良くよかったです。料理は沢山ありましが、並ぶのが少し大変でした。ショウは素晴らしいものでした。

It was the best experience! The staff were very kind, which was great. You can see all of Waikiki, and the blue ocean was wonderful.

最高の経験でした！
スタッフの方がとても親切だったので良かったです。
ワイキキを一望できるし青い海も素敵でした。

On the day of the tour, the highway was closed, and I had to take a detour, which made me late for the meeting time. However, when I approached the ticket counter, they informed me of available times and accommodated my request for a change. Tiffany, who guided us with the buggy, was very cute and took interesting photos and videos for us. She was very enthusiastic about providing service, and we had a great time. The scenery was also beautiful, and it was a very satisfying tour.

当日、高速が封鎖されており回り道をしたため、
集合時間に遅れてしまいましたが、
チケットカウンターにて申し出たところ、
空きがある時間を教えていただき、変更まで対応いただきました。
バギーのガイドをしてくれたティファニーがとっても可愛く、
写真やムービーも面白く撮影してくれました。
とてもサービス精神旺盛で楽しむことができました。
景色もとても綺麗で、大満足のツアーでした。

The night before and the morning of the event, there was an incredible thunderstorm (the Talai Road in front of the Hilton Hawaiian Village was flooded), so I was worried whether the activity would go ahead as planned. Fortunately, the rain stopped by dawn, and the shuttle bus arrived, allowing us to head to Kualoa Ranch safely.

During the attraction, three instructors accompanied us, humorously teaching us how to put on the harness and the precautions to take during the activity. Once we started the zip line, it was as refreshing as I had expected. However, I might be being greedy by saying this, but since the scenery was pretty much the same everywhere, it felt a bit repetitive towards the end, regardless of the length of the course. That said, given that zip line accidents have occurred in other parts of the world, I am grateful to the instructors for ensuring we could enjoy it safely.

実は前日の夜から当日朝にかけてものすごい雷雨(宿泊先のヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ前のタリアロードが冠水するほど)で予定通り催行されるのか心配でした。幸い明け方には雨が上がり、迎えのバスも来て無事にクアロア牧場に向かうことが出来ました。
アトラクションでは３人のインストラクターが付いて、ハーネスの装着の仕方やアトラクション中の注意点などをユーモアを交えながら教えてくださいました。いざ始まったジップラインは予想通り、気分爽快でした。ただ(こんなことを言うのは欲張りかもしれませんが)景色はどこもだいたい同じなため、コースの長短こそあれワンパターンに感じてしまって最後のほうは少し飽きてしまいました。とは言え、世界のよその地域ではジップラインの事故が起きている中、安全に遊ぶことが出来たのでインストラクターの方には感謝あるのみです。

I participated in a class starting at 3 PM. After watching a video at the shop on the first floor of the hotel, we walked to the ocean. We practiced on land before taking turns surfing. There were about 10 people in the group lesson, with 3 instructors. They taught us while occasionally mixing in some broken Japanese. For now, everyone in my family was able to stand up. As for whether we were actually riding the waves, that's a bit questionable... I was able to enjoy surfing in Hawaii!

15時からのクラスに参加しました。ホテル1階のお店でビデオを見てから歩いて海へ。陸で練習してから順番に波乗り。グループレッスンで10人くらいいました。先生は3人。時々片言の日本語混ぜながら教えていただきました。取りあえず家族は皆立つことは出来ました。波に乗っているかというと少しあやしいかな‥
ハワイでサーフィンを楽しむことができました〜

This was my third experience with parasailing (the first in Hawaii). The height of 150 meters was exhilarating! The deep blue color of the ocean below was something I had never seen before, and it was truly moving. After enjoying a brief aerial float, I plunged into the sea, and I couldn't help but laugh.

After our turn, it seemed there was a malfunction with the equipment, although the cause was unclear. Unfortunately, the family waiting after us had to return to the port without being able to fly, and I felt very sorry for them.

パラセイリング自体は３度目の経験(ハワイでは初めて)でした。
さすがに150ﾒｰﾄﾙの高さは気分爽快！特に見下ろす海の色が深い青色で、あんな海の色を見るのは初めてで感動しました。しばしの空中遊泳を楽しんだ後は海にジャボン。思わず笑ってしまいました。
私たちの順番が終わった後、原因ははっきりしませんでしたが器具に不具合が生じたらしく、後に控えていた親子は飛べないまま港に帰ることになり、彼らには大変気の毒でした。

As the title suggests, I was nervous watching others ride, but once I actually got on, it felt amazing. The pilots were also really funny, and I was able to laugh the whole time I was on board.

However, I think it's better to have a light meal before riding, as the boat can sway quite a bit, especially with the wind.

タイトルの通りで、他の人が乗っているのをみて、緊張しましたが、実際に乗ってみると、最高に気持ち良かったです。
また、操縦士さんたちもとっても面白い人たちで、乗っている間、ずっと笑っていられました。

ただし、風が吹けば船の移動も含めてかなり揺れるので、乗る前の食事は軽めにしておいたほうがいいと思います。

My family enjoyed the UTV experience and the outstanding view of the Kaulua Ranch!

I felt安心 (safe) with Veltra again this time.

It seems that there are no activities in Japan where you can ride on the back or belly of a dolphin, so I think it's irresistible for dolphin and animal lovers. I was nervous before it started, but Mike, who explained in Japanese, was kind and thorough, and he watched over us, so by the time it began, I was excited. Trainer Maria was energetic and gentle, and I was able to relax and have a truly great experience. It was a Halloween event, but since it was sunny, it wasn't cold (it was cold after taking a shower, though), and once I got dressed, my hair dried quickly, so there were no problems at all.

Veltraさんで今回も安心できました。

日本ではイルカの背中やお腹に乗るアクティビティはないようなので、イルカや動物好きにはたまらないと思います。
始まるまで緊張していましたが、日本語の説明のマイクさんが親切丁寧に説明して下さって、見守ってくれたので、始まる頃にはワクワクしてきて、トレーナーのマリアさんは元気で優しく、リラックスして本当に良い体験ができました。
ハロウィンの参加でしたが、晴れていたので寒くなく(シャワーを浴びると寒かったですが)服を着たら髪もすぐ乾いて何の問題もなかったです。

They picked me up on time at the hotel lobby. The driver was a very fun man. I had a great time with the multinational people who shared the same boat. Motion sickness medication is a must. And above all, the boat staff were the best! They were playful and fun! If I ever go to Hawaii again, I will definitely do this again.

時間通りホテルのロビーに迎えに来てくれました。ドライバーの方大変楽しい男性でした。同じボートに同乗した多国籍の方々とも和気あいあい、盛り上がりました。酔い止め薬は必須です。そして何と言ってもボートのスタッフさん最高！
お茶目で楽しい！　ハワイに行く事があったら是非またします。

The captain was very fun and made us feel relaxed. I had asked him not to drop me in the water (the sea), but it felt like he expertly adjusted it so that only my lower body, or rather my butt, would touch the water—probably on purpose. It was a laughing and enjoyable time.

キャプテンがとても楽しい方で和みました。水(海)に落とさないでとお願いしてたのに絶妙にお尻というか下半身だけ水につくよう調整された気がします、たぶんわざとかと。笑って楽しい時間でした。

My husband wanted to try parasailing last time, but I really couldn't do it, so he held back. This time, I prepared myself for tears and took on the challenge. I decided to go for 150 meters based on reviews. Until the moment I took off, I was really scared and trembling, but once I was in the air, it felt so light and the view was incredibly beautiful, so I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it! I didn't add on photo shooting, but I thought it might have been nice to have a keepsake! I interacted with the others on the boat and we took pictures of each other during the flight, so I recommend that too. It's definitely an activity I want to do again! I think motion sickness medication is a must.

主人が前回したいと言っていましたが私が本当にダメで我慢してもらったパラセーリング。今回は泣くの覚悟で挑みました。口コミを参考にどうせならと150メートル。自分が飛ぶ瞬間までは本当に恐怖で震えていましたが飛んでみるとふわっとして景色がすごく綺麗なので自分でも驚く程楽しむ事が出来ました！写真撮影の追加はしなかったのですが記念にしても良かったかなと思いました！乗り合わせた方々とやりとりして飛ぶ瞬間を撮りあったりしたのでそんなのもオススメです(^^)是非またやりたいアクティビティです♪酔い止めは必須かと思います(^^)

Thank you for your assistance this time.
I suddenly decided to book a tour just two days later. I appreciate how kindly you responded to my last-minute request.
Everyone in our group was a beginner at horseback riding, and we had an 11-year-old child and a 73-year-old mother with us, so I was a bit anxious. However, they explained how to ride in detail beforehand, and surprisingly, it went quite smoothly! It was incredibly fun.
Above all, our guide, Kazuchan, was very kind! Thank you very much!
I will definitely book an optional tour with you again next time.

この度はお世話になりました。
急に思い立ち、2日後のツアーを申し込みました。その後こちらの無理な依頼にも親切に対応して下さって感謝しています。
全員乗馬は初心者で、11歳の子供と73歳になる母もいましたので少し不安はありましたが、乗り方も事前に詳しく教えてくれましたので、案外スムーズに乗れました！最高に楽しかったです。
何よりガイドのかずちゃんさんがとても親切でした！ありがとうございました！
また次回もこちらの方でオプショナルツアーを申し込みます。

If you come to Honolulu, this is the number one thing you should do! The view is amazing, and the staff are very friendly, so I was able to enjoy it with my friends without any worries! I want to do it again!

ホノルル来たら
これはやった方が良いナンバー1！
景色も最高だし
スタッフの方がとても親切で
不安なく友達と楽しめました！
またやりたいです！

I saw about 10 sharks really close up. It was more thrilling than I expected, and it was amazing.
The worst part was the seasickness. The boat on the way there rocked so much that it felt extreme, like waves you wouldn't normally encounter in Japan. We forgot, but taking motion sickness medication is a must. Even with it, the experience might still make you feel nauseous.

サメは、すごく近くに10匹程度みえます。思っていた以上の迫力で、最高でした。
最悪なのは、船酔い。特に行きの船は、これでもかってくらい、揺れます。日本では、まず出向しないくらいの波です。私たちは、忘れてしまいましたが、酔い止め必須です。あっても、あれは、酔うかもしれないレベルです。

There were few fish, and the only things to see were artificial structures and a sunken ship. I started to feel sleepy. The only time I got excited was when I was on the boat heading to the submarine, feeling the wind... I think it would have been more enjoyable if there had been more marine life. This isn't really the tour company's fault, though...

魚も少ないし見るものと言えば人工的に沈めた枠とか沈没船かな。眠くなってしまいました。テンションが上がったところと言えば潜水艦に向かう船で風に吹かれてるときかな・・・。もう少し生き物がいてくれたら楽しかったと思う。こればっかりはツアー会社のせいじゃないけど・・・。

Make sure to bring plenty of water! I think it's best to have at least 500ml per person! Wear sneakers and clothes that you don't mind getting dirty, and bring a towel to wipe off sweat. Don't forget sun protection if you don't want to get sunburned! Even though there was assistance, I felt it was quite a tough tour. I had been eating a lot of heavy food during the trip, so I thought, "This is good exercise!" The guide was creative and made it exciting, and we were able to take many great photos at the shooting points! Other activities looked really fun too, so I definitely want to go again!

必ず水分を持って行って下さい！
1人500ml以上はあった方がいいと思います！
汚れてもいいスニーカー服装と汗ふくタオル
日焼けしたくない人は対策忘れずに！
アシスト付きとはいえ
まぁまぁタフなツアーだと感じました。
旅行中ボリューミーなものばかり食べて居たので
いい運動！と頑張りました。
引率の方が工夫して盛り上げてくれて
撮影場所のポイントでいい写真がたくさん撮れました！
他のアクティビティもとても楽しそうだったのでまた行きたいと思います！！

Since there are good options available, I think it would be better to include the details on the tour page.

The photos and videos were $79. Groups that opted for this option wear special rubber bands, which allows them to receive priority for photos. I was satisfied with the results. However, picking up the USB at the office near DFS the next day was a bit of a hassle. It would be nice if they could send it to Japan for an additional $15.

The wetsuit was $10. I tend to get hot, but it was a good decision to wear it. The seawater was quite cold.

せっかく良いオプションがあるので、
詳細をツアーページに記載した方がよいと思います。

写真&動画は$79でした。
このオプションを申し込んだグループは専用のゴムバンドを身に着けます。
そうする事で優先的に写真をとってくれます。出来栄えは満足です。
ただ翌日以降にUSBを
DFS付近のオフィスに受け取りにいくのがちょっとめんどう。
+$15で日本に送ってくれるような・・・

ウエットスーツ
$10でした。
暑がりですが着ておいて正解でした。
結構、海水が冷たかったです。

The content of the show was diverse and very enjoyable without being boring.

When you arrive at the reception, you need to obtain a printed paper with a barcode. Just to be safe, I arrived around 16:40, and there were only about two groups ahead of me in the general line. Since you sit in a vertical line, if you arrive late, you might end up behind tall people, making it hard to see, so I recommend arriving early. Those with priority definitely get in before the general admission, so there is quite a wait between entry and the commemorative photo session. Even after being seated, you have to wait for those who arrived later, so it can feel long while holding a drink. With the buffet-style food, you can only go around once, and because there are many people, you will have to wait. I recommend taking a larger portion of food. If you don’t mind waiting, it’s not a problem, but since it’s in a foreign country with English all around, it can feel like you're waiting longer than the time spent watching the show. However, surprisingly, there were no children throwing tantrums, perhaps because they understood it was a special place.

ショーの内容はバラエティ豊かで飽きずにとても良かったです。

受付に到着したら、バーコードが印字された紙の発行が必要です。念のため16：40ごろに到着したら、一般では前には2組ほどしかいなかったです。縦並びに座るので遅くくると背の高い人の後ろになって見にくくなるので、早めがオススメです。一般より上の方が断然優先なので、入場から記念撮影の間がとにかく待ちます。着席しても、今度は後ろに並んでる人から遅めにきた人まで待つのでドリンク片手に長い。1周しか取れないブュッフェスタイルのフードを取るにも、人数が多いだけあって待ちます。フードは多めに取ることをお勧めします。並ぶのは苦じゃない方ですが、異国で英語が飛び交う中なので、ショー見てる時間より長いんじゃないかって感じてしまいます。でも、子供は意外にも特別な場所ということが分かるせいかぐずってる子はいませんでした。

You don't need to arrive before the reception time since others are quite relaxed about it. It's not a first-come, first-served situation...

Once the submarine dives, it stabilizes, so I didn't feel nauseous or experience any pressure changes. I joined a tour without a Japanese guide, but if you're just looking to enjoy the ocean, it's not a problem.

The handsome guide, Jordan, was hard to understand at all. I found the earphone guide a bit bothersome and took it off halfway through. I was satisfied to see turtles and sharks.

受付時間前に行かなくても他の方がルーズなので大丈夫です。早い者勝ちとかではないので・・・
潜水艦は潜ると安定してるので気持ち悪くなったり気圧が変になることはなかったです。
日本語ガイドがいないツアーに参加しましたが、純粋に海を楽しむなら問題ないです。
イケメンガイドさんのジョーダンが全く分からないくらいです。イヤホンガイドは途中面倒くさくて外してしまいました。亀やサメも見れて満足です。

You can enjoy parasailing, and since you go out into the bay by boat, you can view Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea. Although Japanese is not spoken, the staff is accustomed to Japanese guests, so I think you don't need to worry.

パラセイリングはもちろん、ボートで湾内に出るので、海側からワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めることができます。日本語は通じませんが、スタッフの方が日本人に慣れているので心配ないと思います。

We participated as a family of five on the 90m ride. Our children are 8 and 6 years old, and the 8-year-old brother, who isn't a fan of roller coasters, ended up crying on the boat and couldn't go on. Instead, I went twice. The younger child said it was fun and wants to do it again. If you are prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to take something beforehand!

90ｍに家族5人で参加しました。
子供は8歳と6歳で8歳のお兄ちゃんは元々ｼﾞｪｯﾄｺｰｽﾀｰなど好きではないので案の定船の上で大泣きで出来ませんでした。
その代わりに私が2回飛びました。
下の子は楽しいと言ってもう一回やりたいと言っています。
船酔いする方はあらかじめ飲んでいった方が良いかも！！

The weather was clear, and I enjoyed the view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from above, experiencing sights that can't be seen from the ground. It felt like I was a bird.

We paired up and had about a 10-minute aerial walk. There wasn't unnecessary conversation, but if you wanted, they offered to take photos and provided a chapon service, which was efficient and nice.

We boarded the boat with six pairs and took turns parasailing, but since there was some waiting time on the boat, I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take anti-nausea medication about 30 minutes before boarding.

Since the location was in the developing Ward area, we declined the return shuttle and enjoyed lunch at the newly opened Merriman's in Waikiki before heading back.

It was a memorable day in Hawaii. Thank you, Veltra!

天気は快晴、空からワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドを見渡せ、地上からは見られない景色を堪能しました。
まるで鳥になった気分です。
2人一組、だいたい10分程度の空中散歩です。
必要以上な会話はないけれど、希望すれば写真やチャポンサービスしてくれたりと、サービスに無駄がなくよかったです。
わたしたちは、6組が一緒に船に乗り込み、順番にパラセーリングしましたが、船上での待ち時間があるので、酔いやすい方は乗船30分前くらいに酔い止めをのまれることをお勧めします。
場所は、開発の進むワード地区であった為、帰りの送迎は遠慮し、ワイキキに新しくオープンしたメリマンズで昼食を満喫し帰りました。
ハワイでの思い出に残る一日になりました。
ベルトラさんありがとうございます。

Chief's Luau was such a fun experience. The chief was such a funny person and made me laugh the entire time during the luau. The show was very intriguing, the Chief likes to have the audience take part in the show which made the experience personal. The weather was great the day I went so there was no rain at all which helped make the experience more enjoyable. The food was okay it wasn't something extraordinary but it was still good. My favorite part of the luau was when the chief had a special segment where he recognizes couples on their honeymoon and couples who have been married for a long time. The chief also helped someone propose to his love. He really acknowledges family and makes sure that everyone has a good time while they are at the luau. I would definitely recommend this luau to families and couples. 

I participated at my sister's request to see dolphins!
We had an early departure, so I was very sleepy, but the kind and cool staff, along with the sweet and lovely team, made the time on the boat enjoyable.
We were able to swim with both dolphins and turtles safely!
It became a wonderful memory.
Thank you so much.
I am truly grateful to all the staff led by Shota.
If there’s another opportunity, I would appreciate it.
The pineapple we ate together after coming back from the sea and the warm drinks were also very delightful.

イルカに逢いたいという妹の希望で、
参加しました！
朝早い出発で、とても眠かったですが
優しくてカッコいいスタッフさんと
優しくて可愛いスタッフさん方が、
船での時間を盛り上げてくださり
無事イルカとカメ両方と泳ぐことができました☆
とても素敵な思い出になりました。
本当にありがとうございます。
ショウタさん筆頭とするスタッフの皆様には
感謝しかないです^ ^
また機会がありましたら
宜しくお願い致します。
海からあがった後の皆で食べたパイナップル、
あたたかい飲み物もとても嬉しかったです。

I was looking forward to this for the first time.
The following are my shortcomings.

I usually don't get seasick, so I didn't bring any motion sickness medication, but
the waves were strong, and we took a small boat to the parasailing location, so

I felt really nauseous...

Even during parasailing, the wind made it shaky, so
I felt terrible.

Finally, when returning from parasailing to the boat, I was dropped into the sea,
and I wish that hadn't happened. (laughs)

初で楽しみにしていました。
以下は私の落ち度です。

普段船酔いしないので酔い止めは持っていかなかったのですが
波が強く小型のボートでパラセーリングの場所まで行くので

すごく気持ち悪かったです、、、、

パラセーリング中も風で揺れるので
気分が最悪でした。

最後パラセーリングから船に戻る時海の中にぽちゃんと
されたのでやめて欲しかったです。笑
