(About the meeting place)
It was noted that we should arrive 30 minutes early, but I was a bit late. I mistakenly got off at the wrong bus stop and dashed over, but even being 2-3 minutes late didn’t seem to matter much.
*Since it’s a bit of a walk from the bus stop, I recommend allowing extra time.

(At the reception)
A girl in her late teens assisted me without checking any documents. After confirming my name on a tablet, I wrote my name in two places on the confirmation document and waited about 20 minutes on a bench. She was very pleasant. She warned me to be careful as the bench was hot from the sun.
*It might be a good idea to bring a pet bottle since there’s no supermarket nearby and there’s little shade where you wait.

(About the boat)
It’s a smaller boat that takes about 10-15 minutes to head out to sea.
*At first, it goes slowly, but midway it picks up speed unexpectedly, causing the boat to rock quite a bit, so I definitely recommend taking motion sickness medication. Even holding onto the boat’s ramp, your body can feel weightless. In front of us, a boy who looked like he was in elementary school seemed to have gotten seasick, as he returned pale and lethargic.

(About luggage and photos)
There’s a hole under the boat seats where you’re instructed to put all your belongings. You can take out your phone to take photos and videos during the ride, but since it gets quite bumpy, it might be better to take them at the beginning.

(About parasailing)
You put on the equipment and life jacket and wait your turn. There are two people, one who operates the equipment and another who explains how to put it on. The person explaining was humorous and spoke to us in Japanese, which made it easy to enjoy. When they realized there were Japanese people, they spoke in Japanese after English, which was very kind of them.

Even a child in our group who seemed scared at first got used to it once we were up, and when they came down, they looked like they had a lot of fun, so I think it’s fine.

The only scary parts were getting out to sea on the boat and the moment of going up, but once you’re up, it’s totally fine! I was amazed by the blue of the ocean.

After going up, you can touch the sea. They take a lot of photos while you’re going up and coming down, so if you have time, you might want to pose.

(After finishing)
After it was over, they asked if I wanted to purchase the photos. They were a bit pricey, but I bought them as a keepsake. It was convenient as the photos were immediately available by connecting to a computer.

Since my body was wet, I walked for about 3 minutes to Waikiki Beach and swam right away.

（待ち合わせ場所について）
30分前には必着と注意書きにありましたが
少し遅れてしまいました。
バス停を一つ間違えてダッシュしましたが
2.3分遅れても、あまり気にしてない感じでした。
※バス停から少し歩くので余裕を持って行った方が
　良いと思います。

（受付）
女の子（10代後半位）が対応してくれて
書類も確認なしで、タブレットで名前確認をしたら
確認書類に名前を2箇所書いて、
20分くらいベンチで待ちました。
とても感じのいい子でした。
ベンチが日差しで暑いから気をつけてと言ってくれました。
※ペットバトル1本は持参した方が良いかも
（近くにスーパーがない、待つ所は日陰が少ない）

（船について）
小さめの船で10〜15分で、
沖の方に連れて行ってくれます。
※序盤はゆっくりだが、中盤からスピードが思いの外でて、船が上下してだいぶ揺れるので酔い止めは必ず飲むべきだと思います。
船のスロープをもっていても体が浮きます。
自分達の前の組で小学生位の男の子が、
恐らく酔ったのか、顔が青ざめてぐったりして帰ってきてました。

（荷物•写真などついて）
船の椅子の下に穴が空いてるのでそこに荷物全部入れるように指示があります。
携帯途中出して写真や動画撮影OKですが、揺れが強くなるので撮るなら最初の方に撮ったほうがいいかも。

（パラセーリングについて）

器具とライフジャケットをつけて順番を待ちます。
操縦してくれる人と説明器具装着をしてくれる人
２人で、説明•器具装着の人はユーモア交えて日本語で話しかけてくれるので安心して楽しめました。
日本人がいると分かると、英語の後日本語で話してくれるのでとても優しかったです。

同じグループの小学生位の子でも、最初は怖がっていたけどいざ上がったら慣れるので降りてきたら
とても楽しそうにしてたので大丈夫だと思います。


怖いのは船で沖に出るまでと、上に上がる瞬間位で
いざ上がれば全然平気でした！
海の青さに感動しました。

一度上まで上がった後、海につけられます。
上に上がるまでと降りるまで写真をたくさん撮ってくれるので、余裕があればポーズとってもいいかも

（終了後）

終わったら、写真を購入するか？ときかれます。
少し高いですが、記念で買いました。
パソコンから線を繋いですぐに写真が入るので便利でした。

体が濡れてたので、右の方に徒歩3分くらいでワイキキビーチにいけるのでそのまま泳ぎました。

Everyone involved were fantastic. The crew on the boat were unreal and hilarious. Would highly recommend. Great bunch of people.

Very well organized , all personnel very friendly and knowledgeable, very intense and cultural .
buffet was great .

At the beginning of April, there are still rainy days. On the day of the tour at Kualoa Ranch, it rained all day. I was able to enjoy the bus tour to some extent. It would have been better if there had been a tour in Japanese since all the explanations were in English.

4月の初めはまだ雨の日がある。クアロアランチの当日は終日雨。
バスでのツアーのためにそれなりに楽しめました。説明はすべて英語のために日本語でのツアーがあればもっと良かった。

This tour is a lot of fun as you can really feel like you're abroad, with all the other guests being foreigners. On the day of the tour, we were told it would be the best day ever, and when we arrived, we saw 5 to 6 turtles sleeping on the ocean floor, which was a sight I had never seen before. Of course, there were also many turtles swimming around, and during snorkeling, it was filled with turtles. I was surprised to see so many turtles in Waikiki.

After snorkeling, we enjoyed a cruise while listening to famous international songs, taking in views of Waikiki hotels and Diamond Head. We raised the sails and sped up, enjoying a leisurely time with a pleasant breeze.

Don't forget to bring tips!

私たち以外全て外国人のお客様なので、海外にいることを感じられ、とても楽しめるツアーです。当日、今日は最高の一日になる、との説明があり、期待して行くと、カメが海底でくっついて5～6匹寝ており、こんな光景は初めてでした。勿論、泳いでいるカメも何匹もいて、シュノーケル最中はカメだらけでした。こんなにもワイキキにカメがいるとは驚きでした。
シュノーケル後は、海外の有名な曲を聴きながら、ワイキキのホテルやダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めながらのクルージング。帆を上げてスピードアップをしながら、心地よい風と共にゆっくり過ごしました。
チップを忘れないで持っていって下さい。

I was told there would be an English guide, but they used simple Japanese, so I was able to enjoy it without any problems. I'm glad I could try parasailing in Hawaii for the first time! The ocean was beautiful, and I could see Diamond Head clearly. They took a lot of photos for me (for $40), creating the best memories! I got more seasick than I expected, so those who are prone to motion sickness should be careful.

英語案内ということでしたが、片言の日本語を使ってくれたので特に問題なく楽しめました。
初めてのパラセーリングをハワイでできて良かったと思います！
海が綺麗で、ダイヤモンドヘッドがよく見えて、写真もたくさん撮ってくれて（40ドル）最高の思い出です！
思ったより船酔いしたので、酔いやすい方はご注意です。

I love Jurassic Park and have always wanted to visit this place. It all started when the theme song began to play on the bus! It was an English tour, but I always choose English tours no matter the country, and I really enjoy the friendly atmosphere with the other international guests. The guide was also proactive in taking photos, which made me, as a solo tour participant, very happy!

This tour is a must for both movie lovers and nature enthusiasts when visiting Hawaii.

ジュラシックパーク大好きでずっと行ってみたかった場所へ
バスの中であのテーマソングが流れ始めた所からスタート！！
英語ツアーでしたが、私はどこの国でも英語ツアーにしていて周りの外人さん達の和気あいあいな雰囲気が大好きです。
ガイドさんも率先して撮影して頂き、1人ツアー参加の私には本当に嬉しかったです！

大自然と撮影地、映画好きの方にも自然好きの方にもハワイへ来たら是非参加して欲しいツアーでした。

It was my first time parasailing. The weather was great, and the sea was beautiful—absolutely amazing! The boat ride was full of thrills. I want to do it again!

初めてのパラセイリングでした
天気も良く、海もキレイ最高でした
ボートもスリル満点
また、やりたい‼️

We decided to go to Hawaii for our honeymoon and booked parasailing through this site!

The small hut was a bit hard to find, but we arrived safely, and there were eight of us, including my husband and me! The others were all foreigners! The explanations were in English, so I didn't understand everything, but I got the gist of it (laughs).

It was a bit cloudy, which was a shame, but it felt amazing! The view of the Hawaiian sea was the best!

新婚旅行でハワイに行くことになり
パラセーリングをこちらのサイトから予約！

小さな小屋が分かりずらかったですが
無事に着いて私たち夫婦入れて8人で出発！
私たち以外は外国人の方でした！
英語での説明だったので何言ってるかは
分からなかったけど何となくで理解しました（笑）

ちょっと曇りだったのが残念ですが
とても気持ちよかったです！
ハワイの海を一望できて最高でした！

It was amazing to enjoy two hours of horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch! The initial meeting place and other explanations were provided by a Japanese person, and from the actual horseback riding onward, the guide spoke only in English. They communicated directions like "left" and "right" in Japanese, but everything else was explained in English! (I think it might vary depending on which guide you get.)

The horses each seemed to have different personalities, and it appeared that the order in which they walked the course changed depending on the day. I was at the front, but the guide didn't always walk right in front of me, so there were times when I had to properly control the reins and change direction myself!

The horses were very smart, and I was able to enjoy the natural surroundings and horseback riding in a relaxed manner for the full two hours! The items you can bring while riding are drinks and smartphones, but you are advised to never let go of the reins with your left hand for the entire two hours. So, basically, you will be drinking water or using your smartphone with one hand! You also need to be careful not to drop your smartphone, as you can't pick it up while riding!

2時間乗馬しながらクアロアランチを楽しむことができ最高でした！
最初の集合場所などの説明は日本人の方が行い、実際の乗馬からは英語のみのガイドになりました！
進行方向を教えてくれる右左などの単語は日本語で話してくれましたが、それ以外は英語で説明でした！(たぶんどのガイドさんがついてくれるのかで変わると思います)
お馬さん達もそれぞれ性格が違うようで、その時によって誰がどの順番でコースを歩くのかは変わるようです
(私は先頭だったのですが、常にガイドさんが私の前で歩いていくれているわけではないので、自分手綱をちゃんとコントロールして方向を変えないといけない時がありました！)
お馬さん達も非常に賢く、2時間自然も乗馬もゆったり楽しみながら過ごすことができました！
乗馬中に持ち込める荷物は飲みものとスマホなどでしたが、左手で持つ手綱は2時間絶対離さないようにと注意を受けるので、
基本的には片手で水を飲んだり、スマホを使ったりすることになります！
スマホも落とすと乗馬中は拾えないので、絶対落とさないように注意が必要です！

Our para sailing adventure at 9am with a party of five people was absolutely incredible! From the moment we arrived, the captain and crew warmly welcomed us and made sure we were ready for an unforgettable experience. As we soared through the sky, the panoramic views were breathtaking, and the early morning light added an extra touch of magic to the scenery. The camaraderie among our group made the experience even more enjoyable, with laughter and excitement filling the air. The captain and crew were not only skilled professionals but also incredibly nice, ensuring that each member of our party felt safe and comfortable throughout the entire journey. I can't recommend this para sailing experience enough - it's the perfect way to start your day with adventure and unforgettable memories!

I participated with my 9-year-old child. On the day of the event, there were strong winds and high waves, which made the ride quite bumpy until we reached the point. My child was initially scared of the wind and the rocking, but in the end, it seemed like they gained a sense of accomplishment and really enjoyed it.

9歳の子供と参加しました。
当日は風が強く波が高かったこともあり、ポイントに着くまでかなり揺れました。子供はこの風と揺れに最初は怖がっていましたが、最終的にはやり遂げた満足感を得られたようで、とても楽しんでいました。

I was a bit anxious because my English isn't very good, but when I arrived, the Japanese staff explained the meeting point for the tour, the location of the restrooms, and what to bring. The staff for the horseback riding tour spoke English, but some of them spoke a little Japanese and used simple words to make things clear, which was very kind of them. There was also a Japanese video prepared for the horseback riding instructions.
The horses are very smart and will move and stop in sync with the horse in front of them without needing much direction from us.
However, each horse seems to have its own personality; the horse I rode wanted to eat grass right away, making it difficult to pull on the reins, and my arms started to hurt. I was a bit scared that it would lean forward to eat grass and I might fall off.
The scenery was beautiful, and the experience of horseback riding in nature was a valuable one.

英語があまりできないので少し不安でしたが、現地につくと日本人のスタッフの方がツアーの集合場所やトイレの場所、持ち物等の説明してくれます。乗馬ツアーのスタッフの方は英語でしたが、少し日本語を話してくれる方がいたり、わかりやすいように単語で言ってくれたりとみなさん親切で、乗馬の説明は日本語のビデオが用意されていました。
馬はとても賢く、こちらが指示しなくても前の馬に合わせて進んだり止まったりしてくれます。
ただ馬によって個性があるようで、私が乗った馬はすぐに草を食べようとするので手綱を引くのが大変で腕が痛くなり、草を食べようと前傾姿勢になるので落ちるのではと少し怖かったです。
景色はとても綺麗で大自然の中での乗馬体験は貴重な経験になりました。

Absolutely one of my favorite things that we did. Our guide Micky was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. I would recommend this to anyone. We saw some cool sea life and had the opportunity to hold some sea creatures.

The captivating dance was impressive and very enjoyable. I think my satisfaction would increase even more if there were more experiences that included dance. After all, the weak yen is quite severe.

魅惑のダンスは見応えがあって、とても良かったです。もうちょっとダンスを含めて体験が多いと満足感が更に増すと思います。何せ、円安がひどいので。

Swaying in the wind, I enjoyed the view of the land and the sparkling surface of the sea from above, experiencing thrills and a sense of the extraordinary. It was incredibly pleasant and fun!

風に揺られ海の上から陸の風景やキラキラ光る海面を眺め、スリルもあり、非日常を味わえ最高に気もちよく楽しかったです‼

Just book it! The experience was incredible. The 1000 ft line is so high! We did the pics for an extra $40 and it was totally worth it.

Had so much fun! Micky was amazing; gave clear instructions and made us feel comfortable and safe! Great knowledge as well. Super beginner friendly! All the gears fit great. Highly recommend :)

We boarded in a group of five. We went out to sea while getting splashed with water. In the sky, we were hit by winds that tossed our bodies up, down, left, and right in an instant. From the ocean, it looked like a very elegant aerial stroll, carried by the refreshing breeze, but there was a big difference between watching and experiencing it. I had taken motion sickness medication beforehand, but it was still quite tough for the elderly couple. However, even for someone like me who is not good with heights, I felt no fear at all. Rather, I had such a valuable experience that I can say it was enjoyable.

５組のグループで乗船。水飛沫を受けながら沖の方まで行きました。上空では一瞬で体が上下左右に持って行かれるほどの風を受けました。沖から眺めていると爽やかな風に乗ってとっても優雅な空中散歩のように見えていましたが、見るとするのとでは大違い、前もって酔い止めを服用していましたがそれでも高齢者夫婦にはかなりしんどかったです。ただ高いところが苦手な私でも全く恐怖は覚えませんでした。むしろ楽しかったと思えるほどの貴重な体験をさせてもらいました。

The view of the sky was amazing! The staff was great too!
I had imagined flying, but I wasn't prepared for the boat ride to the point and being rocked by the boat while others were flying, so I got more seasick than I expected!
Taking motion sickness medication is a must.

空の景色最高！スタッフも最高！
ただ、飛ぶイメージはしていたけど、ポイントまで船が走ること、他の人が飛んでる間船に揺られていることの準備ができていなかったので想像以上に酔いました！！
酔い止め対策は必須です

The crew were nice and funny. The experience was fun, my wife loved it. Haven't get to check out the pictures yet since I have an android phone. The pictures are for an extra $40 and they give you the sd card.

We enjoyed Toa Luau so much! Our children, 2 & 4, had a wonderful time as well. The cast/crew are the same people running the activities before the meal, and serving the meal, then putting on a great show - their hard work and enthusiasm is inspiring <3 I noticed their attention to detail in how smoothly the check-in, meal, and all the transitions went. Highly recommend!

Even though I was overseas, time seemed to move on as usual here. Before getting on the boat at Kaneohe Bay, we encountered a heavy rainstorm, and I thought the trip might be canceled. However, we went ahead despite the rain. My umbrella, which was meant to be a sunshade, ended up being used mainly as a rain umbrella. It was so cold that I felt the chill was more overwhelming than the rain season itself.

It was really fun to have the tour guide take pictures of us at the movie filming locations!

海外なのに、此処はあえて時間通りに進んだ
カネオヘ湾のボートに乗る前に、凄い雨にあったので、中止？かと思いきや、雨の中、決行
日傘兼用なのに、主に雨傘となり雨季なのだ〜と思ったくらいかえって寒さの方が勝った位でした

映画撮影ポイントもツアーガイドさんにも写真を撮ってもらい本当にたのしかったで〜す

I was able to see incredibly beautiful scenery from the sky! On the day of the flight, the wind was very strong, which was quite scary, but it was a great experience. The staff at the reception spoke a little Japanese, but the crew on the boat did not speak any, so I didn't understand a single word of the explanation before the flight.

It was written in Japanese at the reception that you should tell the crew about the photo service once you get on the boat, but there wasn't really a good timing to mention it, and the group that didn't communicate anything missed out on getting their photos taken. We were giving off a strong "please take our photo" vibe, and just before we took off, the crew asked us, "Photo?" so we were able to request it somehow.

とっても綺麗な景色を空から見ることが出来ました！
当日は風がとても強く、かなり怖かったですがとてもいい体験ができました。
受付の方は少しだけ日本語が通じましたが船の添乗員さんは全くだったので、飛ぶ前の説明は一言も分かりませんでした。
写真のサービスは船に乗ったら添乗員さんに言ってくださいと受付に日本語で書いてありましたが、言うタイミングは特になく、何も伝えていなかったグループは撮ってもらえてなかったです。
私たちは撮って欲しいオーラをすごく出していたら飛ぶ直前に添乗員さんに"フォト？"と聞かれたのでなんとかお願いすることができました。

We had a very fun time on our tour. Chris, our tour guide was fabulous. We learned so many facts about the filming of some of the movies. It was a very enjoyable experience.

This was so amazing and fun. The crew was top notch! We will definitely do this on all return trips to the island.

We loved our snorkeling experience, our guides were always friendly and helpful. I had my two children with me with varying abilities and the guides were easily able to accommodate for them. We had a fantastic experience.

I finally got to visit Manoa Falls, which I had wanted to see for a long time. I signed up for a Japanese tour, but I was the only Japanese person there. However, the guide was Japanese, and even the English explanations were very easy to understand.

The hike was quite tough, and the walking stick they lent me was very helpful. I wore long sleeves and long pants, but I was sweating a lot along the way. I wanted to take them off, but I was afraid of getting bitten by mosquitoes, so I endured it.

My shoes ended up muddy. There is a place to wash them, so you can get some of the dirt off, but they won't get completely clean, so I think it's best to wear shoes that you don't mind throwing away.

For lunch, we ate on Tantalus Hill while looking at Diamond Head and Waikiki. The view was much nicer than at night.

The sandwich was very delicious. It was from the sandwich shop next to the Starbucks in Manoa.

I'm glad I had such a fun experience.

ずっと来たいと思っていたマノア滝にやっと行けました。日本語ツアーで申し込みましたが、日本人は私のみ。ですが、ガイドの方が日本の方で英語の説明でもとてもわかりやすく私でも理解できました。
ハイキングは割とキツく、杖を貸して頂いたのがとても役に立ちました。長袖長ズボンで行きましたが、途中で汗だく。でも脱いだら蚊に刺されそうだったので我慢しました。
靴は泥まみれになります。洗う場所もあるので少しは土が落とせますが、ちゃんと綺麗にはならないので捨てても良い靴で行くと良いと思います。
ランチはタンタラスの丘でダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキを見ながら食べます。夜のタンタラスよりもずっと素敵な景色です。
サンドイッチがとても美味しかったです。
あのマノアのスタバのお隣のサンドイッチ屋さんのものでした。
楽しい経験ができて良かったです。

Since we participated as a family of four, this is my second post, but we enjoyed the thrill and excitement in a freedom that can't be experienced in Japan! It is somewhat pricey, but I think it was worth it! If I have the chance to visit Hawaii again, I would like to participate again♪

4人家族で参加したので、2度目投稿ですが、
日本では味わえない自由の中でスリルとワクワクが楽しめました！
それなりのお値段ではありますが、
参加して良かったと思います！
またハワイを訪れる事があったら参加したいと思います♪

Here are a few points to keep in mind for your reference! First, during Golden Week, it might still be a bit chilly to go into the water. I had a towel in my belongings, but I forgot it on the day, but it was okay since they were selling them at the shop. If you took commemorative photos, please go to the blue building (next to the sea lions) after the activity to pick up your photos. It seems that some people forget to take them home. There is one Japanese guide in the park who can teach you various things if you need assistance. The dolphin show starts at 12:30, but it overlaps with lunchtime. You can order takeout from the restaurant and eat while watching the show. The restaurant is somewhat pricey. For the round-trip tour, the return time was not written on the voucher. Please make sure to confirm the pickup time at the initial counter. The bus usually arrives about 20 minutes before the gathering time. It was a different bus than the one I took on the way there, so please talk to the driver to confirm. They will check your passport on the way back, so make sure to take a photo of it on your smartphone! By the way, the bus on the way there also arrived early. Once the group is gathered, it departs immediately. Although it was my first time and I was a bit confused, it turned out to be a fun experience.

気をつけることを何点残しますので、ご参考までに！まずGWはまだ水に入るのにはまだ肌寒いかもしれません。持ち物にタオルがありますが、当日忘れてしまいましたが、ショップに売っていたので大丈夫でした。記念写真を撮った方は、アクティビティ終了後にブルーの建物（アシカの隣）へ、写真を受け取りに行ってください。忘れて帰ってしまう方がチラホラいるみたいです。園内に日本人のガイドさんが1人いらっしゃいます。その方がいれば色々教えて下さいます。イルカのショータイムが12時半からでしたが、昼時と重なりますが、レストランでテイクアウトにして、ショーを見ながら飲食ができます。レストランはまぁまぁお高いです。ツアーの往復送迎ありは、帰り時間がバーチャーに書いてありませんでした。最初のカウンターで必ずピックアップ時間を確認しておいてください。バスは集合時間の20分前ぐらいには到着していました。行きに乗ったバスとは違いましたので、ドライバーに話しかけて確認してください。帰りはパスポートの確認をされます。必ずスマホで写真を撮っておいてくださいね！ちなみに、行きのバスも早めに到着していました。人数が集まったら即出発します。初めてでちょっと戸惑いながらも、楽しい経験になりました。
