This was a very enjoyable experience of the North shore. It was filled with fun activities, excellent food, and good shopping. Uncle Kevin was a perfect host and tour guide, and the trip would not have been the same without him. Very wonderful experience!

I went with my husband and 6 yrs old daughter. Our overall experience was good. The activity was awesome and the guy who was helping us on the boat was friendly.
Highly recommended!

We participated in our first horseback riding experience as a couple over the age of 60. The explanations were in English and completely confusing! (The video was in Japanese, so that was fine.) There was a Japanese person in the same group who was fluent in English, which was a great help. The horse I rode was very smart and it was wonderful. My husband's horse kept stopping to eat grass from the beginning to the end, which made it quite challenging. It was our first experience, but we were able to enjoy the beautiful scenery of nature and create great memories.

P.S. The girl who was our guide was always attentive, very kind, and adorable. Thank you for your care.

還暦を過ぎた夫婦で初の乗馬体験に参加しました。説明が英語でチンプンカンプン！（ビデオは日本語なのでOK）同じグループに日本人の方がいらして英語が堪能な方だったので助かりました。私が乗ったお馬さんがお利口でとても良かったです。主人のお馬さんは最初から最後まで何度も草を食べ立ち止まる事が多く手こずっていました。初めての体験でしたが、大自然の景色を見ながら楽しむ事ができ良い思い出ができました。

ガイドの女の子がいつも気にかけてくれてとても親切で可愛いかったです。お世話になりました。

The farm ground are awesome, you catch glimpses of the ocean, and the horses are excellent trained!

This was such a fun experience! Our guide was very knowledgeable about Hawaii culture and the location history. We sat in the back of the jeep which was exciting and a very turbulent! We went into the experience excited about seeing movie sets (which we did and were super cool) but came out of it more amazed by the culture and views! Bonus: Lots of animal spotting's too!

Our three guides (Liz, Carter, and Kiki- may be wrong about the names, sorry) gave us an amazing experience and were so fun! I felt safe the entire time and felt confident by the end to go upside down. I ziplined side by side with my husband and loved every minute! The views are absolutely breathtaking! If you're an adrenaline junkie, this is an absolute must! If you're not, I would still recommend this to try something new, exciting, and maybe even conquer a fear!

I took my 8 year old daughter who is not comfortable on horses but with the help of the two ladies, she loved the whole experience. Well worth the drive out and the price for such a great day with beautiful scenery.

I took my daughter and her fiancé on this adventure for an early Christmas gift. The boat was clean, the crew friendly and fun, and the whole experience felt very safe.
The take-off and landing were so smooth and easy. The views from 1000 feet up were breathtaking!
The crew took lots of pictures that you could purchase for $40–they downloaded the photos to my phone and also gave me the SD card. Definitely worth it! We will do this again!

Do not miss this opportunity to gaze into the Universe— it is transporting and transformative! Greg was incredibly knowledgeable and kind— such a perfect guide to take with you on this life changing experience! His passion is palpable and his astronomical equipment is out of this world— pun intended! ;). We have told everyone about this awesome activity and will absolutely be back to a Hawaii and back to see Greg, the craters on the moon, the rings of Saturn, and the moons of Jupiter! Thank you Stars Above Hawaii for creating such a special night for us!

Great tour!
They provide all the information you need before hand. The creew is friendly and swimming right next to the turtles is just amaizing. Such an increíble experience!

Parasailing in the dreamlike Waikiki was more thrilling than I expected! The staff was full of happy energy and high spirits, and even if your English is limited, it’s not much of a problem. They bring out various items and turn up the music to enhance the fun.

A sense of camaraderie developed with others on the same boat, and after the flight, we exchanged applause. It was incredibly hot with strong sunlight, but be careful as you have to take off your hat when flying. I kept mine on until the last moment. Still, it was an experience worth trying.

【About Luggage】
There’s no place to store valuables, so you have to shove your bags under the benches on the boat. I tackled it with a smartphone case that could hold tips and a credit card around my neck. Since my hotel was far away, I used a coin locker on the Hilton Lagoon side for my other valuables (it’s quite expensive though).

【Credit Card】
You need cash or a card to buy the photo data, but JCB is not accepted! Please be aware of this. (I even went all the way to the locker to get mine.)

憧れのワイキキでのパラセーリング。
思った以上に高くて楽しかったです！！スタッフはハッピーオーラ満開でハイテンション、英語が片言でもあまり問題はありません。いろんなアイテムを出したり、音楽のボリュームを上げて、楽しさを演出してくれます。

同じ船に乗った方ともなんとなーくの一体感が生まれ、フライトの後はお互い拍手を送り合ってみたり
とにかく暑くて日差しが強いけど、飛ぶ時は帽子は取らなければなりませんのでご注意を私は飛ぶギリギリまでかぶってました
それでもやってみる価値ありの体験でした。


【荷物について】
貴重品の預かり所はなく、荷物はボートのベンチの下に突っ込むしかありません。私はチップとクレジットカードが入るスマホケースを首からかけて挑みました。ホテルが遠かったのもあり、その他の貴重品はヒルトンのラグーン側にあるコインロッカーを使いました。(めちゃくちゃ高いけど)

【クレジットカード】
写真のデータを買うのに現金かカードが必要ですが、JCBが使えません！ご注意ください。(私はわざわざロッカーまで取りに行きました)

Thoroughly enjoyed my time. The staff were friendly and informative and the Sharks came by to say hi - all in all, a great day.

Sehr schöne Tour, Moana Team nett, kompetent, freundlich. Man sieht viele Schildkröten. Aber, der Spot vor Waikiki ist overcrowded, viele Auslugsboote kommen dorthin, mit ebenso vielen anderen Schnorchlern. Leider sind nicht alle rücksichtvoll und halten sich an die Regeln (dont touch the turtles, keep distance). Wenn das so weitergeht kann man drauf warten, dass der Spot zum Schutz der turtles geschlossen werden wird :-(

This was a fun time. Well organized and lots of information on sharks. Saw 4 or 5 varieties including 4 tiger sharks within 5 feet of us.

**[Paragliding Experience Flow]**
- Reserved for the 9:00 session.
- Since it was said to gather 15 minutes before the check-in time (8:30) when walking, I arrived at 8:15.
- After writing my name on the consent form, I was told I could return here by 8:40, so I took photos at the harbor, applied sunscreen, and waited while taking motion sickness medication.
- At 8:50, we boarded the boat and took 15 minutes to reach the point. During that time, we put on life jackets and were asked if we wanted to take photos for $40.
- Starting from 9:05, each group began paragliding. We flew for about 10 minutes. When I requested photos, they took quite a few before and during the flight (I counted over 100, and the quality was quite good).
- Paragliding while enjoying the beautiful sea, sky, islands, and Diamond Head was amazing. It was stable and not scary at all, and occasionally they made it a bit bumpy for fun, so the 10 minutes flew by. At the end, when we were picked up by the boat, I was submerged in the sea up to my chest.
- It seems that a certain speed of the boat is necessary to maintain the height of 150m, so it swayed normally. Since we had to wait on the boat during other participants' paragliding, I think it’s better for those prone to seasickness to take motion sickness medication. Even though I rarely get seasick, I took some just in case, but towards the end, I felt a bit nauseous.
- Finished at 9:50. Those who didn’t request photos could leave directly. Those who did went to the check-in area, checked the photos taken, and paid $40. They transferred the data to my iPhone and also gave me an SD card.

**[Impressions]**
While on the boat, there was fun music playing the whole time, the scenery was beautiful, and the staff were kind and spoke a little Japanese, so just being on the boat was really enjoyable. It became a wonderful memory, and I’m glad I had the experience!

【パラセーリング体験の流れ】
・9:00の回で予約
・徒歩の場合、チェックイン時間（8:30）の15分前集合ということだったので、8:15に到着。
・同意書に名前記入したら、8:40までにここに戻ってこればいいよ、と言われてハーバーで写真撮ったり日焼け止め塗ったり、酔い止め飲んで待ち。
・8:50に船に乗り込み15分かけてポイントに到着。その間に、ライフジャケット着たり、写真撮影40ドルでやるかどうか聞かれる。
・9:05から１組ずつパラセーリング開始。だいたい10分くらい飛んでいたかな。写真撮影頼んだら、飛ぶ前から飛んでる最中、かなり撮ってくれた。（数えたら100枚以上あった、画質もかなりいい）
・綺麗な海、空、島、ダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めながらパラセーリング。安定していて怖くないし、たまに楽しませるためにぐわんぐわんしてくれて、10分間あっという間だった。最後、船に回収される時、胸くらいまで海に浸かった。
・150mの高さを保つためにはある程度の船の速度も必要みたいで普通に揺れる。他の参加者のパラセーリング中ずっと船で待機なので船酔いする人は酔い止め飲んだ方がいいと思う。めったに酔わない私も念の為に飲んだけど、最後らへん少し気持ち悪くなった。
・9:50に終了。写真撮影頼んでない人はそのまま帰る。頼んだ人はチェックインしたところに行き、撮ってもらった写真ぱらぱらと確認し40ドル支払う。iPhoneを渡してデータ移行してくれてSDカードもくれる。
【感想】
船に乗ってる間、ずっと楽しい音楽流れてるし、景色も綺麗だし係の人たちも優しくて日本語少し喋れるから、本当に船乗っているだけでも楽しかった。とってもいい思い出になって体験できてよかった！

This tour was awesome, learned a lot during the tour about conservation and Hawaiian native plants. We got to off road quite a lot which I really enjoyed and also sight seeing throughout the tour which is great. Would highly recommend!

I had participated before, but my child had never experienced it, so I wanted them to have the opportunity and joined again. It's quite rare to interact with dolphins like this, and I was able to see many smiles on my child's face. I would like to participate again.

以前も参加したことがありましたが、子どもは体験したことがなく、子供にも体験させたくてまた参加しました。ここまでイルカと触れ合えるのはなかなか無く、子どもの笑顔をたくさん見ることが出来ました。また参加したいと思います。

The two gentlemen running the operation that day were awesome! Super chill and laid back! The young blonde at the XTreme Watersports booth, where you check in, was super sweet! Checking in was easy! Wait time: minimal! Overall fun: 10 out of 10! Do yourself a favor and book your parasailing adventure with XTreme Watersports!!!!! Definitely would return again!!!!

Oh, and don’t forget to tip them!! They really are busting their butts all day to make your adventure memorable!!!!!

Since the trail tour at Kualoa Ranch was fully booked and I was planning to go to Haleiwa, I made a reservation here, which was available nearby. The staff explained how to operate the horse, but I couldn't understand any English at all. However, I was able to grasp the basic commands for the horse (go, stop, turn left, turn right) through gestures. Once we set off on the trail, our horse followed the staff's horse on its own, so we hardly needed to use the reins (the horse is smart!).

While swaying on the horse's back, I was able to slowly enjoy the view of the ocean through the pine forest by the beach, making it enjoyable even for someone with no riding experience. It's best to wear clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting dirty, and keep your belongings to a minimum (no backpacks allowed; you can fit a phone and a water bottle in the saddlebag that hangs from the saddle).

クアロアランチのトレイルツアーが予約いっぱいでハレイワに行くつもりだったので近隣で予約可能だったこちらを予約。
対応してくれたスタッフが馬の操作方法を説明してくれましたがこちらは英語全く聞き取れず
しかし身振りでお馬さんの簡単な操作方法(進め・止まれ・右左ターン)は理解できましたしいざトレイルに出発するとスタッフの馬に我々の馬は勝手に追従してくれてほぼ、手綱操作は不要でした(お馬さん賢い！)
馬の背中に揺られながらゆっくりとビーチ横の松林を海を眺めてることができ乗馬未経験でも楽しむことができました。
服装・靴は汚れても良い格好で荷物も最小限(リュック不可で鞍に引っ掛けるサドルバッグにケータイと水筒が入るくらい)でいきましょう。

At first, I was so focused on the unfamiliar horseback riding that I didn't have any room to relax, but gradually I was able to enjoy it. The canyon was, of course, beautiful, and the seaside views along the way were also amazing, allowing me to fully appreciate nature.

慣れない乗馬に最初は全神経を集中させるほど余裕がありませんでしたが、徐々に楽しめるようになりました。渓谷はもちろん、途中で通る海辺の景色も最高で自然を堪能できました。

The crew on this ship were kind, funny & kept safety first. The area we were at had many turtles & nice for our family with all levels of experience. We only wished we had more time!

Ladder was the only struggle, but I made it! Once in the sub,arine the experience was so cool. Not somethng you can do every day!

Me and my husband who are a bit older felt like this was perfect for us to get to see the water as a diver would!

Full of fun, beautiful views, and fresh air up in the mountains!

We had an outstanding experience! The captain and co-captain were friendly and professional. We arrived at the cage and returned to our destination safely. We were fortunate to see a few sharks. I thought I might get seasick but to my surprise I did not. I think it was because my grandson and I ate a bland meal beforehand and do not drink coffee. Unfortunately, two of the passengers did get sick and went palu in the cage! Auwe! Overall a great experience and we'd do it again.

We enjoyed our horseback ride on the beach. The scenery was beautiful, the ride easy. It wasn't 2 hours as advertised, closer to 1 hour 40 minutes, but still a nice ride. They make you wear helmets which I wish was optional because I didn't feel they were necessary since we only walked the horses and the horses were very gentle. It would have been nice if we could have run the horses, but with beginner riders on the trip I understand that that was not an option and they let you know it's walking only. Our guide Ella was very friendly. Overall we were pleased with the ride.

I applied with excitement to enjoy the movie filming location. Following the misty mountains was a wonderful experience that captivated me with nature and horses.

映画の撮影現場を楽しみに申込みました。霧深い山々を辿るのは自然と馬に魅せられる素晴らしい体験でした。

This is great way to see all the sites at Pearl Harbor in a cost effective and easy way. No problems going between each site. Thank you so much .

We were a large group made up of first timers, young ones and experienced parasailers and had a great time. We initially experienced mechanical issues and had to scrap our excursion but were able to reschedule for the next day. The ride, commentary and overall experience was memorable, enjoyable and such a great time! Highly recommend, we will be back for sure. Thank you!!!

It was beautiful my first time riding a horse but she was very patient and helpful, we stopped next to the water to get photos and that was amazing, i can’t remember her name but she had short dark hair and was amazing telling us all about the land horses my husband and myself enjoyed it very much and would recommend it it was the sundown ride, it was so relaxing and we talked the whole time, thank you so much it was a great ending to a birthday
