We rode a motorboat in groups of three and took turns flying out over the ocean. I was nervous since I was the first one, but the moment my feet left the boat, I felt a wonderful sensation of floating! In no time, we soared high into the sky. The vast expanse of sky and sea surrounded us, with islands and buildings in view. The sea was deep, yet its beautiful blue was evident. I was worried about flying together with my middle school and sixth-grade children, but we had no problems and enjoyed the wind while chatting happily. I thought I would be in the middle, but my lightest son ended up there. While my daughter and I were sitting, my son was standing. But honestly, those details didn't matter. I had told the captain in advance that I wanted to get wet, and at the end, he gave us a splash! I had also requested photos beforehand, and they took a lot of pictures for us. It didn't seem like they were taking that many, but there were about 150 shots. Everyone's happy faces and the scenery were captured beautifully. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't perfectly clear, so the landscape photos looked a bit dark, but there were many great expressions, which was wonderful. It's a good idea to request photos in advance. After getting off the boat, we checked a few on the computer, and if we liked them, we could buy them; if not, we wouldn't have to purchase. There was no need to tip, or rather, there wasn't even time to do so. It was probably included. The driver who picked us up from the hotel was also very nice, saying, "The view is great, it's the best. I guarantee you'll have fun." After it was over, he kept cheerfully asking, "Did you have fun? Of course, right?" and our drive was enjoyable as well.

3組でモーターボートに乗り、沖にでて1組ずつ飛びました。一番最初だったのでドキドキしましたが、足がボートから離れた瞬間、ふわっと飛びあがる感覚が気もちイイ！！あっという間に大空へ高く舞い上がりました。空と海が広くひろがり、周りには島やビル。深い海なのに青いのがわかる綺麗な海。中学生と小6の子どもたちと3人だったので、一緒に飛べるのか不安でしたが、問題なく飛べてワイワイ話しながら風を感じることができました。私が真ん中かと思ったら一番軽い息子が真ん中。私と娘は座っているのに、息子は立っているような状態でした。でもまあ、そんな細かいことはどうでも。予め英語でキャプテンに「濡れたい。」と言っていたら、最後にジャボン！としてくれました。また、予め写真をお願いしていたので、写真も沢山撮ってもらえました。そんなに撮っているように見えなかったのに150枚くらいとか。みんなの嬉しそうな顔や景色が映っていました。残念ながらお天気が快晴ではなかったので、景色の写真はちょっと暗い感じでしたが、良い表情が沢山あって、とてもよかったです。写真はとりあえず頼んでおくといいです。船から降りて、パソコンで何枚かチェックして、良かったら買う、あまり良い写真じゃなかったら買わない、という制度でした。チップは払う必要はなかったです。というか、払う暇はありませんでした。たぶん込みかな。ホテルからの送迎をしてくれた運転手さんもとてもいい人で、「景色がよくて、最高だ。絶対楽しいことを保証する。」と言っていましたし、終わった後も「楽しかった？やっぱり。良かっただろ？」とずっと明るくお話をしてくれてドライブも楽しかったです。

A completely different look at what Hawaii has to offer. Very much worthwhile

was a unique experience going underwater. had a lot of windows to look out at all angles and toured many wrecks and reefs. got to see sharks sea turtles and a large assortment of fish. good value

We are a couple in our 50s, participating with our 4th-year university daughter. We were unsure about the morning program, but this plan turned out to be the right choice. The sandbar was beautiful, but there weren't many fish while snorkeling, so it felt a bit lacking. However, the snorkeling after moving to the coral reef was absolutely satisfying. We experienced schools of fish and saw a turtle up close in the water, which was an unforgettable experience. The hamburgers for lunch were delicious, and I want to thank the man who entertained us on the bus and Yuki, who was very attentive on the boat. My wife and daughter were also very satisfied!

54歳同士の夫婦、大学4年生の娘と3人で参加。午前中のプログラムと迷いましたが、このプランで正解。サンドバーは綺麗でしたが、シュノーケリングしても魚もいないので、こんなものかなぁと。その後の、珊瑚棚に移動してからのシュノーケリングが大満足。魚の群れ入るは、海の中でホヌが至近で見られるは、これまでに無い経験。ランチのハンバーガーも美味しかったし、行きのバスを盛り上げてくれたおじさん、船でいろいろと気を使ってくれたユキさん、ありがとうございました。かみさんも娘も大満足でした！

We had a great time and it's definitely worthwhile to check out the Sandbar. The water is just beautiful and great snorkelling too. Lunch was also very decent. We had hamburger and pineapples and tortilla chips on the side. The only thing that bothered us was that the Captain kept on assuming we are Japanese and that we don't speak English (given that there are a lot of Japanese tourists on the boat). He repeatedly tried to communicate with us in very broken Japanese. We look Asian, but we are Canadian and we don't understand Japanese. I always reply him in English but he keeps forgetting that we speak English. Maybe he thinks we all look the same. He loved making conversations in English with Caucasian guests, called out the non-Asian names on his list of guests, and ask them where they were from, whether they were celebrating an occasion, but made no effort to talk to us the same way. The translator, think his name was Freddie, initially assumed we were Japanese too but caught on right away that we are English speakers which was great. Other staff were very nice and helpful. Overall we did have a great time and I would recommend this, only the Captain frustrated us a little.

It was refreshing to soar into the sky while looking at Diamond Head. The VELTRA voucher does not mention tips, but of course, tips are necessary, so don't forget.

ダイヤモンドヘッドを見ながら大空に舞い上がるので爽快でした。
VELTRAのバウチャーにはチップの事は記載がありませんが当然チップは必要なのでお忘れなく。

You can enjoy both the magnificent scenery and the zip line. The entry is in English on a tablet, so it's a bit hard to understand. It took about five days for the photos to be uploaded after I requested them.

雄大な景色とジップラインの両方が楽しめる。
エントリーがタブレット(英語)なので少しわかりにくい。
写真を頼んでからサーバーにアップされるまで5日くらいかかった。

Everything went smoothly from the hotel pickup. The guide speaks only English, but it's not a problem if you understand basic English. For $30, they will take many photos with a DSLR. I'm not sure about those who are afraid of heights, but it felt really nice. However, since the time spent on the boat is long, don't forget your sunscreen!

ホテルへの送迎から全てスムーズに進みます。ガイドは英語のみですが、簡単な英語が分かれば問題ないです。３０ドルで一眼レフで沢山写真を撮ってくれます。高いところが苦手な方はわかりませんが、とても気持ち良かったです。ただし、ボートに乗っている時間が長いので、日焼け止めを忘れずに！

a lot of fun doing this activity with my friends. A cool experience for me.

The sandbar was deeper than I expected, which surprised me! I've heard that the beach appears only during certain times. Snorkeling was so much fun! There wasn't much explanation on how to use the snorkeling gear, so I almost felt like I was going to drown until I got the hang of it (laughs). We saw beautiful corals, fish, and sea turtles. I went with my family and husband, and we all had a great time!

サンドバー、思ったより深くてびっくり！！砂浜が現れるのは時期があるそうです。シュノーケルすごく楽しかった！シュノーケルの使い方の説明があまりないので、コツを掴むまで溺れそうになったけど（笑）きれいなサンゴ、魚、ウミガメ見れました家族と旦那と行きましたが、みんなで盛り上がりました！

I participated in the Dolphin University on August 18. I was a bit skeptical about whether I could really swim with wild dolphins, but I was able to swim with a pod of over 30 dolphins. Additionally, wild sea turtles came right up to the boat. The fifth-grade children were also very excited. The local guides were kind and made the experience really enjoyable. Next time I go to Hawaii, I definitely want to participate again.

イルカ大学には、８月１８日に参加しました。本当に野生のイルカと泳げるかと半信半疑でしたが、３０頭以上の群れと一緒に泳ぐことができました。さらに、野生のウミガメも船のすぐそばまでやってきました。小学５年生の子供たちも大興奮でした。また、現地添乗員の皆さんも親切で楽しくすごくことができました。次回もハワイに行ったら、ぜひ参加したいです。

Before turning 60, we decided to challenge ourselves with a 90M sailing trip in Hawaii as a memorable experience for our first visit! The handsome instructor was very kind and dandy. The view of Waikiki from the sky was amazing! For an additional $30, he took over 50 great photos for us. Even after returning home, we keep talking about how we want to go back to Hawaii and do it again.

還暦前に、初めてのハワイ旅行の思い出にと、夫婦で９０Mのセイリングに挑戦！！
インストラクターのイケメンのおじ様はとても優しくてダンディ。
空からのワイキキの眺めも最高！！
３０ドル追加料金を払うと、写真もばっちり５０枚以上は撮ってくれました。
帰国してからも、思い出しながら「またハワイにいってやりたいね～。」と話しています。

I booked this for my teenage daughter and I and we loved it!
The ranch is gorgeous and the scenery was amazing. The horses are beautiful and well cared for and the staff are patient and really nice.
Would definitely recommend this to anyone. We did the 1 1/2 hour scenic ride which is perfect for beginners and riders with minimal experience.

You can enjoy parasailing for about 5 minutes at 150 meters. The boat accommodates 6 to 8 people. They take turns flying. The crew is cheerful and friendly, so there's no need to worry. They also take photos for a fee of $10 to $20.

150mで5分ぐらいパラセイリングを楽しめる。ボートには６～８人。順番に飛ばせてくれる。クルーは明るく、親切です。心配ありません。写真も撮ってくれます（有料１０～２０ドル）

It was disappointing that we couldn't see the fish due to the rain from the previous day, but the staff were very kind, and it was reassuring even with small children around. Thank you very much.

前日の雨の影響で魚が見えなかったのが残念でしたが、スタッフの方々がとても親切で小さな子供たちがいても安心でした
ありがとうございました

A fantastic experience! Great crew gives plenty of individual attention to all, especially first-timers like me. Don't let the heights intimidate you - the ride is smooth, the view amazing and take-off and landing are easy. Be sure to take the dip!

The sandbar was submerged in seawater up to my waist, but it was a beautiful place with very clear water. I went snorkeling, but there weren't any fish at all. Since there were no hiding spots, there were no fish.
Next, we headed for sea turtle watching, and I was able to see several sea turtles. It was really great.
Then, we went to the coral reef and enjoyed snorkeling in a place where I couldn't touch the bottom. Many fish welcomed us, and it was fun.
Finally, the hamburgers made by the staff were very delicious. I thanked the staff and said goodbye.

サンドバーは腰位まで海水に浸かりましたが、とても水が綺麗で素敵な場所でした。シュノーケリングをしましたが、魚は1匹もいませんでした。隠れる所がないので、魚はいないですね。
次に、海ガメウォッチングに向かいましたが、何頭もの海ガメを見ることができました。とても良かったです。
次に、サンゴ礁に向かい足の着かない場所でのシュノーケリングを楽しみました。たくさんの魚たちが迎えてくれて楽しかったです。
最後に、スタッフの皆さんが作ってくれたハンバーガーがとても美味しかったです。スタッフの皆さんにお礼を言ってお別れしました。

I participated in a morning-only tour. It happened to be a day when the tide was high, so even in the shallowest areas, the water level was up to my stomach. However, I had a great time during the photo opportunities and snorkeling, and the sandwiches were delicious, so it was a good experience overall.

午前中のみのツアーに参加しました。当日はたまたま潮が満ちている日だったようで、一番浅い所でもお腹位まで水位がありました。ただ、写真タイムやシュノーケリングを楽しく過ごせましたし、サンドイッチも美味しかったので、良かったです。

While the experience was great I would have rather not gone in rough seas. The sea was really rough and was very disappointed that the captain did not scratch the trip. My nephew got sea sick and wasn't able to go in the water and ruined his experience. The rest of our group went in the cage and was bounced around so much that taking pictures were next to impossible. When we got back the captain told us his GoPro did not work. So no pictures.I would have like the captain or company to be more considerate of the conditions.

This was our second time and it was another great experience. I would recommend this to everyone.

Very nice Luau. Very entertaining. They provided activities for children. The food was very good.

First, I was taught how to stand on the board a few times on land, and then we headed straight to the sea!! It seemed like they chose easy waves for us, and I was able to stand up easily on my first try, which was amazing. There were two instructors helping us catch the waves and one more instructor closer to the shore, with about ten students in total, but I was able to ride a lot of waves without having to wait, which was satisfying. Since surfing mostly involves moving on your own, I had no worries at all participating solo.

まずは陸で数回ボードの上での立ち方を教えてもらって、すぐ海へ!!
乗りやすい波を選んでもらっているのか、1度目で簡単に立てて感動しました。
波に乗せてくれるインストラクター2名と陸寄りに1名いて、生徒は10名くらいいましたが
待つことなくたくさん波乗りできて満足です。
サーフィンはほとんど1人で動くことが多いので、1人参加でも全く心配要らなかったです。

There were several tour companies that offered parasailing, but the design of the parachute from this company stood out beautifully against the blue sky of Hawaii compared to others. The staff's service was also excellent, and we had a very enjoyable time not only in the air but also on the boat.

パラセイリングをさせてくれる幾つかのツアー会社がありましたが、こちらの会社のパラシュートのデザインが、他の会社よりもハワイの空の青さにとても綺麗に映えていました。スタッフの方々の接客も良く、空だけでなく、船の上でもとても楽しい時間が過ごせました。

We traveled by boat and were able to reach our destination while enjoying a fun guided experience. I remember that when I went, the water was shallow, about up to my knees, but we were able to see a beautiful sandbar. We also saw sea turtles and enjoyed snorkeling for about an hour. The hamburgers for lunch were delicious (≧∇≦). Despite a mishap where the strong wind blew away the lettuce, the crew and other guests had a great time enjoying the tour together! It was a place I would love to visit again!

船で移動しますが、楽しくガイドをしていただきながら目的地までいくことができました。私が行った時は浅いところでひざ下くらいまで海水があったと記憶していますが、キレイなサンドバーをみることができました。
ウミガメも見られましたし、シュノーケリングも約1時間楽しみました。
お昼のハンバーガーはおいしかったです（≧∇≦）風が強くレタスが吹き飛ばされるというハプニングもありながら、クルーのみなさん、お客さんと和気あいあいとツアーを楽しむことができました！
またいきたいと思える場所でした！

Boat trip and sea was quite rough on the day we went. Guides were humorous and helpful. Good visibility of sharks and plenty of them. Cage had 8 people inside which i personally felt was too many given the waters were so rough. All in all was a good experience.

Fun day off activities. Good driver and guide, well organised, good options of activities. Saw a variety of different beaches including sea turtles.

I participated in a daytime snorkeling tour. While enjoying views of the hotels in Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea, I snorkeled with sea turtles for about an hour, creating unforgettable memories. On the boat, snacks and drinks (for an additional fee) were provided, and you can also enjoy a cruising time after snorkeling. I think it was a very meaningful experience for a tour I decided on suddenly. The price is a bit on the higher side, though...

昼間のスノーケリング付きのツアーに参加しました。ワイキキのホテルやダイヤモンドヘッドを海から眺めながらウミガメと一緒に1時間程スノーケリング、忘れられない思い出になりました。船上ではスナックやお酒（別料金）が用意してありスノーケルの後のクルージングタイムも楽しめます。突然決めたツアーにしてはとても有意義な時間が過ごせたと思います。値段は少しお高めですが…

Loved the cruise. The food was good and service was on point. My girlfriend had an allergic reaction to something in food. We were blown away by the response the crew had and they took care of us. Overall we had a great time and plan to do it again in the future.

The smell was a bit concerning, but we were able to see a lot of beautiful scenery. My son really enjoyed the jungle cruise and said he wants to go again and live in Hawaii.

匂いは気になりましたがきれいな景色を沢山見れて、息子はジャングルクルーズがとても楽しかっだみたいで、また行きたい、ハワイに住みたいと言ってました。

The view from the submarine was great. I wish I could have explored the seabed a bit more. The moving boat was rocky, so I was glad I took motion sickness medicine. I was also disappointed that I didn't receive the premium free perks.

潜水艦からの眺めは良かった。もう少し海底散策をしたかったです。移動の船が揺れたので酔い止めを飲んで助かった。またプレミアム無料特典がもらえず残念でした。
