The weather was clear, and I could see well into the ocean; it looked very beautiful.

天気も晴れていて海の中がよく見えて、とてもきれいに見えました。

It was exciting & fun experience. I thought it will be scary, and windy in the air. Instead, it was peaceful and quiet. I wish it was longer. My 74 years old mother enjoyed and wanted to stay in the air much longer.

This time, I traveled to Hawaii with three friends for the first time in ten years. The average age of our group was 55, making it a trip for older gentlemen. Last time, we spent two days golfing and driving around the island. This time, I wanted to try something different besides golf. When I went to Hawaii with my family this summer, I saw a buggy tour on the Hawaii Channel, which piqued my interest, so I joined a two-hour course.

It was raining at the 8 AM meeting time, so we changed to the afternoon, but the weather in Hawaii is unpredictable. The sun quickly peeked out, so we participated in the morning as originally planned. We were the only Japanese participants, along with a couple from Ohio. We received instructions via video and then set off.

The staff accompanying us spoke only a little Japanese, but they made a great effort to entertain us. Along the way, they treated us to passion fruit that was growing on a tree, and in the end, they understood our driving skills, allowing us to enjoy a motocross-like experience. Everyone felt it was better than expected. The Jurassic world is also worth a visit!

今回は仲間３人と１０年ぶりのハワイ旅行でした。
平均年齢は５５歳のおっさん旅行です。
前回はゴルフ２日と島内ドライブで終始しました。
今回はゴルフ以外で何かと考えました。
私が今夏家族でハワイに行った時ハワイチャンネルでバギーを見たので興味が有り２時間コースに参加しました。
８時集合時は雨が降っていたので午後に変更したのですがハワイの天気は気ままな事。
すぐに薄日が射したので予定通り午前に参加。
日本人は我々だけで一緒にオハイオから来たカップルでした。説明はビデオで受けいざ出発。
同行スタッフはほんの少しの日本語しか出来ませんでしたが一生懸命楽しませてくれました。途中木になっていたパッションフルーツをサービスしてくれ最後は我々のドライビングテクニックを理解してくれモトクロス状態で堪能しました。
皆思ったよりよかったーが感想です。
ジュラシックの世界も一見ですよー。

It was our family's first trip to Hawaii with five people. We had a very good experience, but I thought it was a bit expensive.

初めての家族5人のハワイ旅行でした。
とても良い経験が出来ました、でもちょっと値段が高い用に思います。

Initially, I was scheduled to board on the second day of my stay, but unfortunately, the second and third days were booked for a private group, so I boarded two days before my return. I had checked the weather forecast for the latter half of my stay and found that the weather was not looking good, so it wasn't a cloudless sunset as predicted, but with some clouds, I was able to enjoy the changing colors of the clouds.

Most of the passengers were foreigners (I was also a foreigner in Hawaii!), primarily Americans, with only one other Japanese couple on board. Although Japanese was not spoken, I didn't feel inconvenienced during the approximately one-and-a-half-hour cruise while listening to Hawaiian music.

Since it was a catamaran, I expected less rocking, but unfortunately, the wind was strong and the waves were high, so it rocked quite a bit. My wife is not fond of boats, but she took motion sickness medication, so she was fine. The kids were thrilled.

I have also been on the Hilton's submarine, so there wasn't anything new for me to see from the boat looking at Waikiki, but those who are boarding for the first time will likely enjoy it.

Two drink tickets were distributed for alcohol, allowing for beer or champagne. Junk food and teriyaki chicken were served, but since this is a cocktail cruise, don't expect much in terms of food. If you get a good sunset, it will be fantastic!

当初は、滞在2日目に乗船予定でしたが、あいにく団体貸切に2日目、3日目がとられてしまい帰国2日前に乗船しました。天気予報で滞在後半、天気が芳しくないことを調べていたので、予報通り雲の無いサンセットではありませんでしたが、そこそこ雲があると雲の色の変化も楽しめます。
ほとんどが外人（私もHAWAIIでは外人！！）アメリカ人で日本人はもう1カップルのみでした。
日本語は通じませんが、Hawaiiannを聞きながら約1時間半のクルーズには不便を感じませんでした。
双胴船なので揺れが少ないはずでしたが、あいにく風が強く波も高かったので、結構揺れました。妻は船が苦手でしたが酔い止めb薬を飲んでいたので大丈夫でした。
子供は大喜びでした。
小生は、ヒルトンのサブマリンも乗船しているので、船から見るWAIKIKIに目新しさはありませんでしたが、初めて乗られる方はには喜ばれるでしょう。
アルコールは２杯までただのチケットが配られ、ビールやシャンパンが飲めます。ジャンクフードとチキンの照り焼き風が出ましたが、カクテルクルーズなので料理は期待しないでください。
良いサンセットにあたるとサイコーでしょう！！

My family and I had a wonderful horseback riding experience. We have been on many trail rides and this was by far the best. The horses were not your everyday trail horse, they were healthy and well taken care of. The staff was very personable and professional. I highly recommend the Hawaii Polo Norths Shore Beach Horseback Riding!! You definitely get what you pay for!

I thought I had signed up for a tour to swim with dolphins, but it turned out to be just a tour where you touch and kiss them. It was my mistake for not checking properly, but I was really disappointed since I just wanted to swim with them.

イルカと泳ぐツアーに申し込んだつもりだったのですが、間違えて触れたりキスするだけのツアーでした。きちんと確認しなかった私のミスですが、一緒に泳ぎたかっただけにとても残念でした。

My wife and I enjoyed our visit and horseback riding experience at the Gunstock Ranch. We did not want to go to a heavily commercialized facility for horseback riding. There were a lot of animals at the ranch and the scenery was beautiful. The ride trail was nice and rustic which we wanted in our experience. The guide provided us great instruction and information about the ranch, the area and plants along the trail.
Our only improvement suggestions are for the restroom facility's cleaning cycle, grading and packing the access road and a more legible road sign.

It was a long wait from when we entered until the show started, and since we went on the day of our arrival, I ended up feeling sleepy towards the end of the show. We had to go up in turns to get the food, but our seats were towards the back, so we had to wait quite a bit and had nothing to do in the meantime. It was a bit disappointing. However, we made some good memories.

入ってから、ショーが始まるまでが長く、到着日に行ったので、ショーの終わりの方は睡くなって、しまいました。
料理も順番に取りに行くのですが、私たちの席は最後の方だったので、かなり待たされ、ずっとする事もなくダラダラでした。
少し残念。
でもいい思い出ができました。

I signed up for the Dolphin Royal Swim at my mother's request. Holding onto the dorsal fins of two dolphins and getting pushed by them with my feet was even more fun than I imagined. It became a great memory.

おふくろのリクエストで、ドルフィン・ロイヤルスイムを申し込みました。
二頭のイルカの背びれにつかまって泳いだり、二頭のイルカに足を押してもらうフットプッシュは想像以上に楽しかった。
良い思い出になりました。

Was such a cool day!!

Really glad we did this, was just amazing!! Recomend to all!!

Got a wee bit sea sick, so do recomend that people that suffer from sea sick to take some pills the night/morning before doing it, but it was well worth feeling a little sick as it was such a awesome experience!!

I participated with a friend at 90m. At first, I was anxious, but once I flew, it felt amazing and was the best! While flying, it was incredibly quiet, and I could see the ocean stretching far away, which felt surreal! The staff were cheerful, and it was a lot of fun! I felt like I wanted to keep flying forever! I definitely recommend experiencing it at least once!☆

友達と90mで参加しました。
最初は不安でしたが、飛んでみると気持ちよすぎて最高です！
飛んでる間は、すごい静かで海がずっーと遠くまで見れて不思議な気分になります！！！
スタッフさんも陽気でとても楽しかったです！
ずっと飛んでいたいと思ったくらいです！
是非一度体験してください☆

this was my 2nd time and it was different than the 1st, i love it and will do it again when i come back to Hawaii

My first time parasailing and I was very nervous. When we got to the dock to where we were going to depart the crew and check in were very cool and assured me that I was going to have a good time. They were right! I had a blast. I was not that nervous going up and being up there for what amounted to be the perfect amount of time(do 600ft or more....it is worth it). Get the photo package....the guys on the boat will take a whole bunch of pictures of you for $30 and give you the SD card when done. It is something that is a must do when in Oahu. Just awesome!

Was the last thing that I did on my trip and I am glad I saved the best for last!!! It is something that you will NEVER forget!!

It was my first experience, and it was an incredibly pleasant time beyond my imagination. I was surprised by the stable space when we ascended into the sky with the parachute. Up there, it felt like a different world, an experience where I couldn't hear the voices of the two of us, making it feel like a different dimension. It was truly comfortable. I am thinking of challenging it again with the two of us. Also, we had many photos taken as requested, capturing some great moments, which made it even more memorable.

Thank you very much.

初めての体験で、初めての体感で、想像以上の大変心地良かった時間でした。
パラシュートで上空に上がった時の安定した空間には驚かさせました。上空では二人の声しけ聞こえない経験したことの無い別世界、異次元空間を感じさせるものでした。
本当に心地良かったです。
再度、二人でチャレンジしようと思っております。
また、お願いした写真もたくさん撮っていただいて、なかなかのシャッターチャンスで、更に記念となりました。

ありがとうございました。

The best experience while visiting Hawaii....must be done by all travelers....will definitely do this again with extreme Para-sailing guys. Crew members are very friendly. The boat captain was extremely professional. He knows what he is doing and maneuver the boat very smoothly. Totally worth for the money I spend...

I used this service for my honeymoon. I was worried about whether the shuttle bus would actually come, but it arrived on time and called out names loudly, which was helpful. Until we reached the port, the guide spoke in English, but they also provided simple sightseeing information, so I wasn't bored. As mentioned in the reviews, I took motion sickness medicine beforehand. The waves got extremely rough as we went further out, so it's definitely better to take it. There were four groups of Japanese and two groups of non-Japanese, making a total of six groups. We were the last ones, and waiting for a long time can get a bit tedious. The order is determined by who arrives first before getting on the boat, so if you get there early, you might be first in line. It was my first time parasailing, and it was not scary at all; it was really fun! The view of Oahu from above was wonderful. If I go to Hawaii again, I would like to do it again. They provided explanations in broken Japanese, so it was fine even if I didn't understand English.

ハネムーンで利用しました。
送迎のバスもちゃんと来るのか不安でしたが、時間通りに来て大きな声で名前を呼んでくれるので助かりました。
港に着くまでは英語でしたが、簡単な観光案内もしてくれて退屈しませんでした。
口コミにあったように酔い止めを飲んでいきました。沖に行くにつれて波が物凄く荒くなるので絶対飲んだほうがいいです。
私の時は日本人が４組、日本人以外が２組の計６組でした。私たちが一番最後だったのですが、一番最後だと待ち時間が長くて段々飽きてきます。順番を決めるのは、ボートに乗る前に早く来た順みたいな感じなので早めにボート近くにいると一番目になるかもしれませんね。
初めてのパラセイリングだったのですが、全然怖くなくすごく楽しかったです！！空の上から見るオアフ島はとても素敵でした。またハワイに行くことがあればやりたいと思います。カタコトの日本語ですが、説明もしてくれるので英語が分からなくても大丈夫でした。

It was awesome!!! So relaxing and the views were breathe taking. I would recommend this activity for everyone and it is definitely something I would come back to do again. I do wish I ran into a Jurissaic Park sign it wouldve made for a great picture. Also, it would've been cool if the trail leader took at least one picture of each person on their horses for memory purposes. I found it hard to take a picture and ride the horse at the same time. But other than that the experiece was great!!!

I had a horseback riding experience in Hawaii. At first, I was a bit anxious, but I was able to enjoy it. I got to see sea turtles, and I had a fulfilling time having shrimp for lunch.

ハワイで乗馬体験、最初は少し不安でしたが楽しく乗ることが出来ました。ウミガメを見れたり、ランチはシュリンプ食べたり充実した時間を過ごせました。

My first experience surfing. I was worried, but I was able to ride the wave from the first wave. It's strange how I could stand. The instructions were in English, but there were no problems. I recommend it!

初体験のサーフィン
心配でしたが１ウエーブから波にのれました

英語の説明ですが問題なし。オススメ

I have experienced various horseback riding activities so far, but the seaside scenery was very beautiful, and the horses were calm, making it enjoyable. I would like to try other locations next time.

今までいろいろな乗馬を体験してきましたが、海辺の景色がとてもきれいで馬もおとなしくて楽しめました。次回も他の場所での物を体験したいです。

You can enjoy the view of Diamond Head from high above Waikiki. Even those with a fear of heights can slowly ascend into the sky and have a good time. The boat that goes out to sea can be quite rocky, which may cause some seasickness, but you will get used to it after a little patience.

空中高くワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めます。
高所恐怖症の方でも ゆっくりと空に上がって行くので楽しめます。沖へ出るボートの揺れが結構大きいので船酔い気味なりますが少し我慢すれば慣れました。

The rental car's navigation system was acting up, and we arrived just in time, but we set off smoothly♪ The horses were calmer than I expected, and we enjoyed a relaxing two hours. My girlfriend, who came with me, was very satisfied. The view of the ocean from a spot where the mountains opened up was amazing!!

This is Hawaii!

She said, "I want to go again♪"

レンタカーのカーナビの調子が悪く、着いたのはぎりぎりだったにも関わらず、すんなり出発♪
思った以上に馬はおとなしく、のんびりした２時間を過ごせました。
一緒に行った彼女も大満足。
途中山が開けた場所から見た海の景色は最高！！
　
これぞハワイ！

彼女は「また行きたい♪」と言っています。

The explanation is mostly in English, but they provide a simple explanation in Japanese. It was terrifying to watch, but once you actually ride it, it's not scary at all. It's about 10 minutes long, and it feels like flying in the sky, which is very enjoyable. I want to participate again.

説明はほぼ英語ですが、簡単な日本語で説明をしてくれます。
見ているときは恐怖でしたが、実際乗ると全く怖くありません。
１０分ほどですが、空を飛んでるようでとても楽しいです。
また参加したいです。

I participated with a friend.

It was my first time parasailing, and I chose the 150m plan. Rather than feeling thrilling due to the height, it was a very graceful experience. If you’re not extremely afraid of heights, it’s not a scary activity.

I rode on the boat with 12 people from three other groups, and the most fun part was getting to know the other groups and having a great time together!! Also, the staff were very energetic and made the experience even more exciting!!

友人と参加をしてきました。

パラセーリングは初めてで、150mのプランですが、高くてスリルがあるというより非常に優雅な感じです。極端な高所恐怖症でなければ怖いということはないアクティビティです。

他の参加者3グループと12名でボートに乗りましたが、
他のグループと仲良くなって盛り上がることが一番楽しかったです！！
あと、スタッフの方もとてもテンションが高くとても盛り上がりました！！

I participated with eight male friends. Regarding the pickup, we came from far away, and the driver picked up other participants in order, but we were picked up about 20 minutes late. I was a bit anxious, but I was able to spot the car right away because it had a shark design on it.

Once we got in the car and arrived at the location, there were about 20 participants, including some foreigners, and we boarded the boat to head out to sea. It was quite exhilarating as we sped along, with water splashing like a waterfall, which felt amazing!

When we reached the dive point, we connected the cage to the boat and dived in groups of six. About half of the cage was covered in plastic, but the lower half remained open, which added to the thrill and made it a lot of fun! We got to get up close to a large school of sharks, and my excitement was at its peak! It was a truly valuable experience.

However, almost all the Japanese participants experienced seasickness, so taking motion sickness medication is a must.

男友達8名で参加してきました。
ピックアップについては、遠くから来られて、別の参加者の方も順番にピックアップをしてくるのですが、20分ほど遅れてピックアップされました。少々不安になりましたが車にサメのデザインがされていたのですぐに発見できました。

車に乗って現地に着き、外国人の参加者の方も含めて20名程度でボートに乗って沖にでます。
かなり豪快に走って、水しぶきが滝のように振ってきて気持ちいい！！

ポイントに着くと、檻と船を接続して順番に6名づつでダイブしました。檻の半分くらいはプラスチックで覆われているのですが、下半分は檻のままなので、スリルがあって楽しかったです！！間近でサメの大群に接近できテンションはＭＡＸ！！とても貴重な体験となりました。

ただし、日本人はほぼ船酔いをしていましたので、酔い止め薬は必須ですよ。

This time, I was considering other companies as well, but I decided to go with this one because their pricing was lower. Although the guide was not Japanese, there were Japanese explanations provided on board, so I don't think there will be any issues. However, the driver only spoke English, so the car was filled with foreigners (everyone seemed to be having a good time chatting), and we spent our time enjoying the scenery outside.

When we arrived at the point, the boat stopped, and looking at the sharks from the boat made me feel seasick. During my participation, we entered the cage in three groups, so there was a high chance of feeling seasick before and after my turn. I didn't wear a swimsuit this time since I wasn't planning on going into the cage, but I found out that if I wanted to enter the cage on-site, I could do so for an additional fee, so I wish I had worn it. I believe that for this tour, it’s worth it to go into the cage!

Next time... I’m considering it, but thinking about the boat's stopping time makes me hesitate about participating again, so I should definitely take seasickness medication.

今回、他社さんのほうでも検討していましたが、料金設定が安かったのでこちらでお願いしました。
日本人ガイドではないのですが、ちゃんとツアーは日本語の説明が書かれている物が船内にあって渡されたので、特に困らないと思います。
ただ・・・ドライバーさんも英語のみなので、車内は外人さんばかりでしたが（みんなで楽しそうに会話されていました）外の景色を見ながら車内は過ごしました。

ポイントに到着すると船を停止するので、船内からサメをみていると船酔いしますし、参加した時は3回にわけてゲージに入っていったので、自分の番の前後などに船酔いする可能性が大です。今回、ゲージに入るツアーにしていなかったので、水着を着用していかなかったのですが、現地でゲージに入りたければ＋支払いすればＯＫでしたので、着用していけばよかったと思いました。
船上からよりは、やはりこのツアーはせっかくなのでゲージにはいるべきだと思います！！
次回は・・・・と思いますが、船の停止時間を考えるともう1度参加するかは迷いますので、酔い止めは飲むべきですね。

I participated in the Royal Swim this time, and I didn't expect interacting with the dolphins to be so much fun. They are just so cute. You can feed them, pet their backs and bellies, and hold onto their dorsal fins. The foot push can lift even larger adults up.

It's a good idea to bring a little extra money for souvenirs.

今回ロイヤルスイムに参加させていただいたのですが、こんなにイルカとの触れ合いが楽しいとは思いませんでした。
とにかく可愛いです。
エサあげたり背中、お腹なでたり、背ビレに捕まったり。
フットプッシュは大柄の大人でも浮き上がります。

お土産代は少し多めに持って行った方がいいですよ。

It was my first experience with a submarine, and I was able to participate with great interest. My 4-year-old child seemed to enjoy it as well (although they got bored halfway through...).

It might be worth trying at least once.

However, I had reserved for the earliest submarine tour because it mentioned a Japanese guide, but in the end, it was an audio guide. Was there a mistake in the description, or was it my misunderstanding? If there had been a Japanese guide, it might have been even more enjoyable.

Also, there was no shuttle service, and we had to wait a good 30 to 40 minutes from the meeting time. They said they were waiting for another pickup bus, but I thought it would have been better to set the meeting time a bit later.

初めての潜水艦体験だったので、興味深く参加できました。
4歳の子供も楽しかったようです（途中から飽きてましたが・・）。

一度は行ってみてもいいかもしれません。

ですが、サブマリンツアーの一番早い時間が、日本語ガイドだと書いてあったので予約したのに、結果はオーディオガイドでした。
記載が間違っているのですか？それとも私の勘違いでしょうか？
日本語ガイドならもっと楽しかったかもしれません。

あと、送迎なしだったのですが、集合時間からたっぷり30~40分は待たされました。ピックアップのバスをもう一台待ってます、とのことでしたが、ならば集合時間をもう少し遅くしてもよいのではと思いました。
