Oahu
Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy and cold on the day of the tour, which made the conditions less than ideal, but I thought the tour itself was very good. I can only imagine how much fun it would have been if it had been sunny!
Despite the weather bringing everyone's spirits down a bit, our guide Yuki's bright enthusiasm really lifted the mood. She was amazing. Looking back, I have nothing but good memories. I realized how much the experience can change depending on the staff. (The day before, on a tour with another company, both the weather and the guide were quite gloomy and terrible.)
The travel time, time to play at the sandbar, time to observe sea turtles, and time for snorkeling were all perfectly balanced, making it a tour that never got boring. I would definitely like to participate again.
The air conditioning on the bus to the destination was freezing, but the driver didn't turn it off. I hope this can be improved. On the way back, thanks to Yuki's help, it was comfortable. Thank you.
残念ながら当日は曇天で寒くて、条件は悪かったのですが、このツアー自体はとてもいいと思いました。晴れていたらどんなに楽しかったことか！
天気のせいで皆のテンションも下がり気味だったのに、ガイド役のyukiさんの明るい頑張りで、盛り上げてもらえました。すごい力量です。帰ってきてみればよい思い出ばかりです。スタッフさん次第で、ずいぶん変わるものだと思いました。（前日別の会社のツアーは、天気と一緒にガイドも曇り顔でひどかったです）
移動時間、サンドバーで遊ぶ時間、ウミガメを観察する時間、シュノーケルをする時間、どれもちょうどよく、飽きないツアーでした。また是非参加したいです。
行きのバスのエアコンが死ぬほど寒かったのに、ドライバーさんはオフにしてくれませんでした。改善してほしいです。帰りは、yukisanの口添えのおかげか快適でした。ありがとう。

This was on my bucket list, and definitely worth the wait!!! If I ever get back to North Shore, I will definitely be doing this again!! The crew was awesome!! So friendly, and willing to help whether someone needed help or had a question. Mahalo!
We are delighted you enjoyed your tour! Thank you very much for your awesome review! We look forward to seeing you on your next visit!
It was a wonderful experience to feel close to the dolphins! The park is not very large, and the exhibits are compact, making it easy to get around. The only downside was that there were a lot of flies in the dining area, which made it difficult to enjoy our meal leisurely, but considering it as part of nature, it was a good day overall.
イルカを間近に感じられる素晴らしい体験でした！
園内もそんなに広くなく、コンパクトに展示されており、移動も簡単でした。
食事スペースにハエが多く、あまり食事をゆっくり出来なかった点だけ残念でしたが、それも自然の一部と思えば、良い１日でした。

I had always wanted to try it someday. Finally, my long-awaited parasailing! The world up in the sky was incredibly quiet. Before I knew it, I was in the air, and it was so much fun. For those who want to try it but are scared, definitely give it a go! It will become a great memory!
いつかはやりたいと思っていました。
やっと念願のパラセーリング！
空の上はすごく静かな世界でした。
怖がっている間も無く空中へ。
すごく楽しかったです。
やってみたい。でも怖い！と思っている方！
是非トライして下さい。
良い思い出になりますよ！

This is the tour for people who like to be on there own once they get there. This is broken into two parts morning activity and afternoon activity. You have a fully narrated ride over to the North Shore telling you virtually everything about the island. Also all landmarks are pointed out. You arrive get snacks if needed. You are then dropped off at your first activity. The falls etc. Pk up time is set you meet back at bus and your off to bike,kayak,shop or lunch or whatever. Your pk up time is set for your hassle free ride back to waikiki. All fully narrated back. Worth every penny. AC was our guide and knew everything about the island. Was the highlight of our trip.
Both the shuttle service and the boat staff were very nice, and I didn't have any unpleasant experiences at all.
Parasailing was even more enjoyable than I expected, and it was absolutely the best!
I've been recommending it to my friends and everyone I meet; it's definitely an experience you should have!
送迎の方も、船の方も、とっても良い方で、嫌な思いは１つもすることなく、
パラセーリングは、期待以上に気持ちよく、最高に楽しかったです！
お友達にも、会う人会う人にオススメしてます、絶対、経験すべき！

Okay so I am reviewing with a 4 star because I was coming in expecting way more. That's my fault. It was still a fantastic activity that I would recommend to do at least once if you haven't. The view up there is great. You see nothing but blue seas.
The clouds were out, and the sea's transparency could have been a bit better, but the staff were cheerful and we had a great time. We played beach volleyball at the sandbar, and they taught us various photo poses and took lots of pictures, creating many wonderful memories! The hamburgers for lunch were very filling and delicious. My son was so satisfied that he even asked for a second helping. My daughter had an amazing experience when a sea turtle suddenly swam right in front of her while snorkeling, and I missed it, which I find quite envious. Thank you very much!
雲がでていて、海の透明度はもう少しでしたが、とにかくスタッフの皆さんが明るくて、楽しかったです。
サンドバーでビーチバレーをしたり、写真のポーズを色々教えてくれて撮ってくれて沢山の思い出をもらいました！ランチのハンバーガーは、とてもボリュームがあり美味しかったです。息子はなんとおかわりまてして大満足でした。
娘はシュノーケリングの際、突然目の前をウミガメが横切り最高だったようで、私は間に合わず羨ましい限りです。ありがとうございました！

There were more sharks than I expected, haha. However, it was a bit disappointing that the seawater was slightly murky due to heavy rain the day before. That said, it was an issue unrelated to the tour, and since it was my first experience with the tour, it turned out to be a great experience!
予想していたよりもサメがうようよいてました笑
ただ前日まで豪雨だったので海水が若干濁り気味だったのが残念でした。
とは言ってもツアーとは関係ない問題で、ツアー自体は初めての経験だったので良い経験になりました！

I participated with a friend! There were about 10 participants, including couples from South America, Korea, and China, and we were the only Japanese people. There were two guys, one driving the boat and the other speeding it up, and they were very skilled at operating the boat, allowing us to fly higher than other parasailing boats. They also adjusted the height, letting everyone dip their legs in the water a bit, but it wasn't a sudden drop, so it wasn't scary at all and was really fun. They suggested taking photos, but everyone was passing around their iPhones within their groups to take pictures of each other. Despite that, the atmosphere was pleasant and friendly.
友達と2人で参加しました！
参加者は、10人ほどで、南米？、韓国、中国のカップルの方が参加していて、日本人は私達だけでした。
ボート運転のおじさん、飛ばすお兄さんの2人で、飛ばせて頂きましてが、ボートの運転がとても上手で、他のパラセーリングのボートよりも高く飛んで
いました。高低差も出してくれて、みんな脚が少しチャポンと着くように一度下げてくれたりしましたが、急な下げ方でもなく、怖くなく、とても楽しかったです。
写真も勧められたが、みんな各グループでiPhoneを渡してお互いに写真撮っていました。それでも感じ悪くもなく、いい雰囲気でした。

It was really scary, but I was glad to have a lively guide and a kind driver. I would love to do it again if I get the chance.

This review is more for the Hanauma Bay. Such a beautiful place and all-around outstanding experience. I would definitely recommend a visit even if you don't plan on snorkling. I am grateful to have found this tour to take.
I am satisfied with the careful instruction provided to my 10-year-old son. He was able to ride easily, and once he could, he progressed quickly to the next level, which was efficient and seemed to bring him a sense of satisfaction. Thank you very much.
10歳の愚息を丁寧に教えて頂き満足です。
簡単に乗れるようになり、乗れたら次の段階とドンドン進んでくれて効率がよく、本人の満足感もあったようです。ありがとうございました。

We took the Lunch cruise from the Hilton Pier on Waikiki beach to see the sea turtles, it was a great time to go out onto the water. Nice short ride out to the turtle area. The crew was fantastic, very informative and friendly. Gave great instructions on how to see the turtles and one of the crew members was in the water for assistance and to answer questions. After viewing the turtles they put the sail up and we sailed a little further out to sea and that was fun and exciting. Very nice lunch buffet and a few Mai Tais also made it a great time. Clean boat, great crew, nice lunch and got to swim with the Turtles! Will definitely do this cruise again when back on Waikiki.
It takes about two hours to get to Gunstock Ranch by taking The Bus number 55 from Ala Moana. After passing by Kualoa Ranch, you will find Gunstock Ranch further ahead. There is only a sign along the road, so I almost missed the bus stop at Kamehameha Hwy + Opp 56-155. After getting off the bus and walking down the road marked by the sign, I arrived at Gunstock Ranch, where I could hear cheerful voices from a children's swimming class.
I arrived quite a bit earlier than the check-in time, so I spent some time playing with the horses and goats. After listening to the safety instructions, I decided not to wear a helmet and signed a separate waiver form. About 30 minutes into the horseback riding, we reached a hill where we could see the surrounding scenery, and Grace and Chad, who guided us, took some photos for us. The staff were very friendly and helped my mother, who doesn't understand English at all and is inexperienced with horseback riding, feel comfortable. I had a fulfilling two hours riding along a path covered with jungle-like trees on a very friendly horse, an experience I don't usually get to enjoy. I definitely want to visit again.
アラモアナから55番のThe Busに乗ること約2時間、クアロア牧場を通り過ぎ、さらに行ったその先にGunstock Ranchがあります。道路沿いからは看板が立っているだけなので、バス停である、Kamehameha Hwy + Opp 56-155 というバス停をあわや見逃しそうに・・・ バスから降り、看板が立っている道を奥に進んでいくと、子供のスイミング教室から楽しそうな声が聞こえるGunstock Ranchにたどり着きました。
受付時間よりだいぶ早く着いてしまったので、馬やヤギと戯れながら時間を潰し、注意事項などを聞いて、私はヘルメットをかぶらないことにしたので、別途既定の用紙へサインをしました。乗馬を開始すること30分、あたりの景色を一望出来る丘の上にたどり着き、案内をしてくれたGraceとChadに写真を撮ってもらいました。とっても気さくなスタッフの方々で、英語が全くわからず乗馬にも不慣れな私の母をしっかりとリードしてくれました。ジャングルのような木々に覆われた道をとてもフレンドリーな馬と進む、普段味わえない充実した2時間を過ごすことができました。またぜひ訪れたいと思います。
マハロ（ありがとう）詳細な説明をありがとうございます。これは私たちの未来のゲストにとても役立ちます。またすぐにお越しいただけることを願っています。マハロ（ありがとう）
Mahalo for your detailed description. It helps our future guests so much. We hope that you will come again soon. Mahalo

Despite the rain, I was able to enjoy horseback riding and the scenery very much. I also enjoyed the atmosphere of Jurassic Park, which was great.

Our family of three had our first experience. We challenged ourselves at a height of 120 meters. The captain and the staff who operated the boat were very kind and fun. They encouraged me and my son, who were both nervous, and thanks to them, even someone like me, who gets scared easily, was able to enjoy it. My son said, "I want to jump again!" It seems it was an amazing experience for him. If we have the chance, we definitely want to challenge ourselves at 150 meters next time. It became a wonderful memory in Hawaii. Thank you to all the staff. I highly recommend this for anyone who wants to try parasailing!
家族3人で初体験。高さ120mにチャレンジ。
キャプテンとボートを運転していたスタッフが
とても親切で楽しい方でした。緊張をしている私や息子に色々と声をかけてくれて、そのお陰でビビリ屋の私でも楽しむことができました。息子は「もう1回飛びたい！」と言うほど最高な経験だ になったようです。また機会があれば絶対に150メートルにチャレンジしたいですね。ハワイでのいい思い出になりました♡スタッフのみなさん、有難うございました。パラセイリングを体験したい方には、かなりオススメです♡

I had a great time. Unfortunately, it was cloudy, and I couldn't see the sunset, but I thoroughly enjoyed the food and live music. However, the air conditioning on the ship was quite strong, so it might be a good idea to bring a jacket.
楽しく過ごさせていただきました。
残念ながら曇りで、日の入りは見ることができませんでしたが、お料理や生演奏は満喫できまきた。
ただ、船内がけっこう空調がきいていたので、上着を持参する方がいいかもしれません。

It was my first time riding a horse, but the horse was very calm, and even beginners could enjoy it. The riding course along the coast had beautiful scenery, and I was very satisfied.
The only disappointing part was the guide. Although he was a Japanese person who had lived in Hawaii for a long time, he forgot our group during the hotel pickup that morning and left without us. We had to call the hotel we were staying at, and finally, he came back to pick us up. However, his apology felt insincere, and he seemed to have no bad intentions, which made us feel bad for the other tour guests who were with us. That was the only disappointing part.
乗馬は初めてでしたが、とてもおとなしく初心者でも楽しむことができました。また、乗馬コースも海沿いでとてもきれいな景色で満足でした。
ひとつだけ残念だったのが、ガイドさんです。ハワイに長く住む日本人の方でしたが、当日朝のホテルピックアップの時点で私たちのグループだけ忘れられていて、ピックアップされず先に進んでしまったそうです。泊まっていたホテルの方に電話してもらい、ようやく車に戻ってきてもらうことができました。しかし、謝り方も適当で悪気ない様子で、逆に私たち方が同乗していた他のツアー客の方に悪いと感じてしまうようでした。そこだけが残念でした。
Thank you for your participation.
I sincerely apologize for the mistake during your pickup. It seems there were also shortcomings in the response from our staff, and I apologize for that as well.
We will take great care to ensure that such incidents do not occur in the future.
ご参加ありがとうございました。
お迎え時にミスがあり大変申し訳ございませんでした。担当者の対応にも至らない点があったようでお詫び申し上げます。

The crew members were cheerful, and the relaxed rules on the boat and the sea were uniquely Hawaiian, which was great. I was surprised to learn that bringing bananas or banana-patterned items on board is prohibited! The reason is that they can make fishing slippery. I wonder if someone brought bananas this time, which is why we didn't see any dolphins? At the snorkeling spot, the crew searched for the best position for that day. The sea was clear, and we could see the seabed at over 25 meters. It would have been amazing to encounter dolphins... Additionally, I was excited to have a rare encounter with whales in March. There were many sea turtles while we were cruising, so it was a tour that made me feel the richness of nature. Although we didn't see any dolphins this time, I heard that next time I come to Hawaii, I can participate in the free dolphin school, so I want to try again.
船員の方が陽気で、船上や海のルールなどもハワイ独特な緩さがあってよかったです。驚いたのはボートにバナナまたバナナ柄のものを持ち込み禁止!!理由は漁が滑るからだそうです。今回、バナナを持ち込んでしまった方がいたからイルカがいなかったのかなー？シュノーケリングスポットではその日のベストポジションを船員の方が探してくれていました。当日の海は潮が澄んでいて海底25m以上は目視ができました。イルカに出会えたら最高だったのになー...また、3月では珍しい鯨との遭遇に興奮致しました。走行中にはたくさんの海ガメがいたので自然の豊かさを感じるツアーでした。今回、イルカには会えませんでしたが次回ハワイに来た時は無料でイルカ中学に参加できるとのことなのでリベンジしたいと思います。

We were a family of four (a couple, a 12-year-old, and a 6-year-old girl) and rented a car to get to the location. Since we arrived early, we spent some time feeding the fish in the sea with leftover bread from breakfast. It was really interesting to see so many fish gather around. It seemed like it was quite windy that day. My wife and our 12-year-old took motion sickness medication before boarding, so they didn't feel seasick at all. Initially, the couple and the 6-year-old jumped together, and then the 12-year-old joined us for the next jump. My wife and I were able to jump twice. It was 120 meters, but 150 meters might have been better. The kids usually don't like heights, but they were very happy thanks to the beautiful scenery and the thrill. We also purchased photos for $30. They looked like they were taken by a professional, so I definitely recommend buying them. We did various activities during our 9 days in Hawaii, but it seems that this was the kids' favorite memory. Please make sure to experience it!
家族4人（夫婦、12歳、6歳の女の子）
現地までレンタカー。
早めに集合場所についたので、朝食のパンの残りで海の魚に餌やりをして
時間をつぶしていました。非常にたくさんの魚が集まってきて面白かったです。
当日は、風が強かったみたいでした。
妻と12歳の子供は、酔い止めを飲んで乗船したため全く船酔いはしませんでした。最初は夫婦と6歳、3人で飛び、次に12歳と3人で飛びました。
私たち夫婦は、2回も飛ぶことが出来まました。
120mでしたが150mでもよかったかもしれません。
子供たちは普段高いところが苦手ですが、きれいな景色とスリルのおかげで
大変喜んでいました。
写真も30ドルで購入しました。
プロがとったような写真ですので、是非買うことをお勧めいたします。
9日間のハワイでいろいろなことをしましたが、子供たちは一番の思い出になったようです。
ぜひ体験してください。

We participated as a couple. Unfortunately, the weather was bad on the day, and it was very cold, so we couldn't stay in the sea for long. However, thanks to the staff's fun talks, we were able to have a great time. There was a beach volleyball net set up at the sandbar, and I think it would have been even more enjoyable on a warm day. We did snorkeling near the coral, and since it was shallow, we could see many fish up close. There were also families with small children participating, and the kids were able to enjoy themselves safely, so I recommend this activity for families!
夫婦２人で参加しました。当日は生憎のお天気でとても寒かった為、海にながく入っていることができませんでしたが、スタッフさんの楽しいトークのおかげでワイワイ楽しく過ごすことができました。サンドバーにはビーチバレーのネットが張ってあり、暖かい日であれば更に楽しかっただろうなぁと思います。シュノーケリングは珊瑚の近くで行い、浅かったため近くで沢山の魚をみることができました。小さいお子さんを連れた家族も参加されており、お子さんも安全に楽しめていたので家族で参加されるのもオススメです！

Overall an amazing experience I grew up in Hawaii and brought my girlfriend to experience what I had not yet experienced this wonderful catamaran experience!! Loved every aspect of it the boat ride lunch drinks jumping in and swimming with turtles it can’t be beat !!!
This was a great trip for my family! We did not get to see any dolphins but we got to see plenty of schools of fish and two sea turtles. The crew was excellent and made sure each and everyone of the guests had a great experience. Very patient with the kids and made it fun for them. Food was traditional Hawaiian meal and very good, with plenty of extra for seconds. Drinks were good too!
What an incredible experience! We got to see % sharks and they continued to swarm the cage the whole time! The crew were great! Super nice, very knowledgeable and informative. Made sure we had a great experience, My 8 & 11 year old sons loved it! Perfect for the kids! It was one of the highlights of our trip!
The weather was unfortunately cold, and I was battling the chill the whole time, but the dolphins were very smart and cute, which kept me feeling relaxed throughout. I was also able to purchase photos and videos, making for great memories.

You can get photos taken for $30. You can bring your own camera up high, but it's "at your own risk if you drop it" + "it might not turn out well," so if you want photos, it's best to just ask nicely. I only got my feet wet in the sea, so I hardly used my towel. The tip was about $5 to $10 per person.
写真を30ドルで撮ってくれる。自分でカメラを上空まで持ち込み可能だが「落としても自己責任」+「うまくとれない」ので、写真が欲しいなら素直にお願いするとよいでしょう。海には足くらいしか着水しなかったので、タオルはほぼ使いませんでした。チップはだいたい一人あたり5~10ドルくらいでした。

I woke up early and took about an hour to arrive at the port.
Based on previous experiences, I was warned about seasickness, so I took motion sickness medication and was fully prepared, but it didn't help. However, the staff were all very kind, checking on me multiple times and showing concern. Even when I felt unwell, they went out of their way to help me see the dolphins.
We then discovered a pod of dolphins a little distance away. I will never forget the sight of dolphins swimming in the water; it gave me goosebumps.
After seeing the dolphins, we enjoyed various activities like paddle boarding, sliding, and kayaking. While we were playing, the delicious smell of grilled meat filled the air. The captain himself grilled the meat and treated us to cheeseburgers. Having a meal in the ocean with such a magnificent view was the best.
They also taught us hula dancing, making it a tour full of entertainment. I truly recommend it!
朝早くに起きて1時間ほどかけて ポートに到着
以前の体験談をみて船酔いに注意とありましたので酔い止め飲んで万全の体制で行きましたが ダメでした
でもそんな中でもスタッフの方はみんな何度も声かけてくれたり気に掛けてくれとても親切でした
気持ちが悪い中 海の中に入った時も 必要以上に気を配ってくれ、イルカを見せてあげようと一生懸命に手を貸してくれました
そして少し離れたところでイルカの群れを発見
水の中で泳ぐイルカの群れ 忘れられません 海の中で鳥肌が立ちました
イルカを見た後もパドルボードやスライダーやカヤックなどで色々楽しませてくれました
遊んでる最中に お肉の焼けるいい匂い
船長さん自らお肉を焼いてチーズバーガーを振舞ってくれました
壮大な景色の中海でのご飯は最高でした
その後もフラダンスを教えてくれたり エンターテイメント制満載のツアーでした

The day before flying, I was feeling scared looking down from the window of my hotel, but on the day of the flight, the staff encouraged me in English, saying, "It's not scary at all! The captain is number one, and it's definitely going to be fun!" Once I took off, the fear disappeared, and I was greeted with the most amazing views and a smooth ride. It felt like I had become a bird. I flew 150 meters, and if you're going to fly, I absolutely recommend going for the 150 meters!
飛ぶ前日までは、宿泊先のホテルの窓から下を眺めて飛ぶことも怖くなっていましたが、当日はスタッフの方が英語で「全然怖くないからね！キャプテンはナンバーワンの腕前だし、絶対に楽しいから」と声をかけてくださり、いざ飛ぶと怖さなんて気持ちは吹っ飛んでしまうほどの最高の景色と、乗り心地でした♡
まるで自分が鳥になったかのようでした
私は150メートルを飛びましたが、せっかく飛ぶなら私は絶対に150メートルをオススメします♡
