Oahu
LOVED our experience. Everything was amazing! Due to no rainfall/drought the waterfall wasn’t flowing but the views were still Beautiful!
This was the most amazing thing to do. My sister and I really enjoyed the ziplining with the two girls we had guiding us through it. What a most beautiful hot day to sweat. But the zipling was a very good experience I would suggest anyone go do it now! It's so fun! There's so much to do there besides zipling too.
I gave my name at the reception and waited for about 30 minutes. After that, we boarded and set off.
You can basically leave your luggage on the ship, so there are no issues.
At first, they said, "I'll take your photo for $40," and I asked them to take some memories for me. There was a bit of backlighting, but there were many good photos. The backlighting added a nice touch. I was satisfied because they took a lot of pictures for me.
The parasailing was explained in English, so I was a bit anxious, but I left it to the staff and just went along with it. It went really high and felt great. At the end, they dipped my toes in the sea, which was playful and nice. I didn't get too wet, and my face didn't get wet either.
受付で名前を言い、30分程待機。
その後、乗船し出発しました。
荷物は基本的に船に置いとけるので問題はなし。
写真は最初『40$で撮ってあげるよ』と言われ、思い出にお願いしました。
少し逆光が多めでしたが(笑)、いい写真もたくさんありました。逆光もいい味が出てました(笑)。
たくさん者を撮っていただいたので満足です。
パラセーリングも英語での説明だったので少し不安でしたが、スタッフに任せて、されるがままスタートしました。とても高く上がり気持ちよかったです。最後に足先を海につけられたり、遊び心があり良かったです。
大きく濡れたり顔が濡れることもないです。
The experience itself was very good! However, the wait time was too long, and in the heat, we couldn't buy any drinks, which was unfortunate for the children.
体験自体は大変良かった!ですが、待ち時間が長すぎて、暑い中飲み物も買えず、子どもがかわいそうでした。
Such a beautiful way to see Oahu. Would absolutely go again, had the best tour guides.
It was great to have a view of Waikiki! It became a wonderful memory. However, the wait was long, and I struggled with seasickness. I purchased the photo service for $40, but my face was all dark and not visible.
ワイキキを一望でき、気持ちよかったです!
とてもいい思い出になりました。ただ、待っている間が長いので船酔いが辛かったです。写真のサービスを40ドルで購入しましたが、顔は全部暗くて見えませんでした。
I found out that I needed permission to hike Diamond Head, so I decided to join the Manoa Falls tour instead. I wasn't expecting much, but our guide Hiro was kind and provided detailed explanations. I was able to soak in a lot of negative ions, and it turned out to be a fun tour.
ダイアモンドヘッド登山が事前に許可を貰わないといけないことがわかり、急遽マノア滝ツアーに参加することにしました。あまり期待をしてなかったのですが、ガイドのHiroさんが親切で、細かく説明して下さったし、マイナスイオンも沢山浴びることができて、楽しいツアーでした。
I was nervous about my first parasailing experience, but it was really fun! I floated in the air longer than I expected, and the view was amazing!
初めてのパラセーリングでドキドキでしたが、すごく面白かったです( ^ω^ )
思ってたより長く空に浮かんでいて、景色も最高でした!!
So fun!! Loved all the workers who gave us history on Hawaii, from ferry driver to island workers who took us on canoe and glass bottom boat. Loved the sandbar canoe the best!! Definitely recommend visiting the beach
Keiko was an amazing tour guide. He really made the experience one of the best I’ve had. Looking forward to do it again when I come back to the island. We haven’t forgot your care package :)
The captain and crew were AMAZING. Very Very knowledgeable of the animals and waters. Would 100% book again!!!
Awesome experience. The captain and first mate were very patient, and communicated well. Took care to make sure everyone was safe. Took awesome pictures as well.
The parking lot right next to the Hilton is easy to find as the check-in location! After about a 10-minute boat ride, we arrived at the sailing point. Tethered to the parachute, we were off into the sky! The wind felt amazing! You can see the horizon stretching far away, and it's great to have a panoramic view of Waikiki and Honolulu! It was such a pleasant experience, and I felt fantastic!
ヒルトンからすぐの駐車場が受付場所でわかりやすい!!
ボートで10分ほど行くとセーリングポイントへ到着。
パラにつながれていざ天空へ!
風が気持ちいい~~~~~!
水平線が遠くまで見通せるし、ワイキキの町・ホノルルの町を
一望できるというのもこれまた良いですね!
気持ちよくて、最高な気分でした!!
It was very scary and very fun! Before boarding, the dolphins welcomed us, and my daughter was very satisfied. I recommend filming during the ride. I will challenge myself again. Since check-in is hot, let's choose a good time. It's a 7-minute walk from the Hilton Hotel. I'm also satisfied with the price. From the Sheraton, it's by taxi.
大変怖くて大変楽しい気持ちいい〜!乗る前はイルカも大歓迎してくれて娘も大満足でした。乗ってる時は動画での撮影をお勧めします。またチャレンジします。チェックインは暑いのでちょうど良い時間にしましょう。ヒルトンホテルから歩いて7分です。金額も満足です。シェラトンからはタクシーで
It was more expensive and amazing than what we did in Okinawa before. Since the flights are for two people at a time, there were some who got seasick while waiting on the boat.
以前沖縄でやったのより高くてすごかったです。2人ずつのフライトなので、ボートでの待ち時間に船酔いした人がいました。
Before the experience, I was so nervous that I even regretted signing up, but once I actually did it, it was incredibly enjoyable and fun! They also give you the photos on an SD card for $40.
体験前はドキドキで申し込んだことを後悔すらしましたが、実際やってみるとサイコーに気持ち良く楽しかったです!写真も$40でSDカードで渡してくれます。
There were 7 Japanese people (I was just watching from the boat), 4 foreigners, and 2 crew members. The other Japanese people were severely seasick and vomited before parasailing. According to my family, this was just the beginning; after parasailing started, it was truly hellish and they couldn't enjoy the scenery at all.
A Japanese man was vomiting in the air. My family was also down for a few hours after disembarking.
But I think the strong wind was the cause. If there hadn't been any wind, there wouldn't have been seasickness, and parasailing would have been fun.
Meeting time: 9:00 AM
Start time: 9:30 AM, but we were made to wait 40 minutes before boarding. During this time, I got completely sunburned.
日本人7人(私は船で見てるだけ)外国人4人クルー2人。
私以外の日本人は船酔いがひどくてパラセーリングの前にゲロゲロ。
うちの家族いわくこれは序の口でパラセーリングが始まってからが本当に地獄で景色どころじゃないらしい。
日本人男性は空中で吐いていた。うちの家族も下船してから数時間ダウンしていた。
でもこれは風が強かったのが原因だと思う。風がなかったら船酔いもなくパラセーリングも楽しかったはず。
集合時間 9時
開始 9時30分とかいてあるが乗船までに40分はまたされた。この間にこてんぱんに焼けた。
I loved Hawaiian parasail so much!
I felt like I was flying and also enjoyed the beautiful Waikiki beach and diamond head view.
The staff are all friendly and helpful. They take lots of pictures and download it on your phone after reviewing if you pay a fee. I had a bad experience about photos at a different parasailing company. There were no pictures when I checked the Flash card at home. You will never forget this activity, highly recommend!
The Dole Plantation, which we stopped by along the way, was surprisingly enjoyable. I had a delicious pineapple soft serve and added to my collection of unique penny stamps.
The horseback riding at Makakeha Beach offers beautiful scenery, and the horses are well-trained, making it a safe and enjoyable experience even for beginners. There is a brief explanation of basic reins handling at the start, but generally, the horses follow the one in front automatically, so there's no need to worry.
途中に立ち寄るDolePlantationが意外と楽しめます。おいしいパインソフトを食べ、ここでしかないペニースタンプのコレクションが増えました。
MakakehaBeachの乗馬はとても景色がよく、馬もよく馴致されており初心者でも安心して楽しめると思います。最初に簡単な手綱さばき説明がありますが、基本お馬さんたちはオートマで前の馬についていくので心配しないでください。
Thank you for your thoughtful review. We have many other tours that our customers can enjoy, so please consider joining us again when you visit Hawaii.
ご丁寧なレビューありがとうございます。他にもお客様が楽しんでいただけるツアーがたくさんありますのでまたハワイを訪れた際はご参加してみてください。
If you’re in Hawaii and you don’t do this cruise, then you’re missing out!! Such a perfect event to end the evening. So relaxing, the staff was awesome, and the boat was amazing. We end up doing it again.
I participated again because I had a great time last time (in 2018). You can see many beautiful fish. Above all, I was moved by the Honu that comes close to you. The Honu approaches you (laughs). This time, my family was the only Japanese participants. I feel like it was the same last time. I don't really like tours with a lot of Japanese participants, so I appreciate that aspect as well.
前回(2018年)も楽しかったので、再度、参加しました。
キレイな魚がたくさん見れます。
何よりも間近で見れるHonuには感動します。
Honuの方から近付いてきます(笑)
今回、日本人は私達家族だけでした。
前回もそうだった気がします。
日本人がたくさん参加するツアーがあまり好きではないので、そんなところも気に入っています。
The ride and the guide were amazing! The ranch has cows throughout that you get to see when horse riding. It is the best ranch I have been to.
We found out that there were no other Japanese participants besides us on the pickup bus, but we felt reassured knowing that our Japanese guide, Hiro, was there to support us. The path to Manoa Falls was through a lush tropical rainforest, allowing us to enjoy a side of Oahu beyond just the beaches. The local guide who explained about the plants was friendly and had a lively tone, making it enjoyable! After walking just under 1 km, we arrived at Manoa Falls, which had a decent height but a relatively low water flow. The width of the waterfall was unexpectedly narrow, which was a bit disappointing. Exiting the rainy tropical rainforest, Manoa town was dry, and it was interesting to see the climatic changes due to the terrain. We picked up lunch at a popular sandwich shop that has been around for three generations and headed to Tantalus Hill. Enjoying a sandwich that lived up to its reputation while overlooking Diamond Head and the hotels in Waikiki was incredibly pleasant. Although Hiro, our Japanese guide, mentioned that he has only been a guide for a short time, we appreciated his attention to detail.
ピックアップのバスに乗ってみて自分達夫婦以外に日本人の参加者はいないことが分かりましたが、ちゃんと日本人ガイドのHiroさんが付いてサポートしてくれて安心。
マノアの滝までの道は鬱蒼とした熱帯雨林で、ビーチだけではないオアフ島を楽しめた。植物などについて説明してくれた現地ガイドの方は気さく、軽快な口調で面白かった!1km弱歩いて到着したマノアの滝は高さはそこそこあるものの水量が少なめ。滝の幅が予想外に狭くてややガッカリ。雨が降る熱帯雨林から出るとマノアの街はカラッとしていて地形による気候の変化が面白かった。街中で3代続く人気のサンドイッチ店でランチをピックアップしてタンタラスの丘へ。ここからダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキのホテル群など一望しながら、人気店と言われることが納得できるサンドイッチを頬張るのは凄く心地良かった。
日本人ガイドのHiroさんはガイド歴はまだ短いとのことだったが、細かい気配りがありがたかった。
Kioki was by far the best guide we’ve dealt with and we have done a lot of tours. Very energetic and knowledgeable. The North Shore Eco-Tour was awesome. Highly recommend this to anyone. Breathtaking views and the true nature of Hawaii!
I had a reservation at 3 PM, but it started around 3:30 PM. Since we were supposed to gather 30 minutes before the reservation, we waited for over an hour. There was no shade, and it was very hot.
But... this is the blue sky, the blue sea, and the view of Waikiki from the opposite side; parasailing was amazing. The reception staff and the crew were all kind, and overall, I was satisfied. I definitely recommend it.
15時からの予約でしたが始まったのが15時半ころ。予約の30分前集合だったので1時間以上待ちました。日陰もなくとても暑かったです。
でも、、、これぞ青い空、青い海、逆から見るワイキキの景色、パラセイルは最高でした。受付のお姉さんたちや、クルーの皆さんも優しく総合的には満足でした。絶対おすすめです。
Our tour guide Kevin was amazing! He was extremely knowledgeable about the Island and was super friendly. The activities were fun and the landscape was beautiful! We had a great time!
Due to the lack of Japanese speakers, all the information was provided in English, which I couldn't understand at all.
However, the scenery was absolutely stunning.
I could sense that all the guides were cheerful and probably made a lot of jokes.
日本人が少ない為、全て英語の案内で、英語のわからない私には、内容は全くわからず。
でも、目に入ってくる景色は最高でした。
ガイドさんも全員明るくて、冗談をいっぱい言っているんだろうな?って事は感じ取れました。
I usually don't write reviews, but I decided to do so because the tour guide left a very good impression on me. The guide was Japanese and shared various information about Hawaii during the bus rides to and from the destination.
Additionally, while reading other reviews, I noticed that some mentioned a very tight schedule where they only went horseback riding and couldn't explore Haleiwa. However, it seems that this has improved, as we had time to spend in Haleiwa. After enjoying coffee in Haleiwa, we went horseback riding, took about 30 minutes to eat garlic shrimp, and then relaxed at the Dole Plantation before returning to Waikiki. The horseback riding along the beach was leisurely for about an hour, and it was a wonderful experience.
I was also happy that the guide took photos for us and was very proactive.
普段口コミを書かないんですが、ツアーガイドさんがとても好印象だったので書くことにしました。
日本人?の方で、行きも帰りも移動中のバスの中でハワイのことを色々と話して下さってました。
また、他の方の口コミを見るとあまりにもタイトスケジュールで乗馬だけしてハレイワは散策出来ないとありましたが、改善されたのかハレイワで過ごす時間もありました。
ハレイワで珈琲飲んだ後に乗馬して、ガーリックシュリンプを30分くらいかけて食べ、ドールプランテーションでゆっくり過ごしワイキキへ戻りました。乗馬も海辺を1時間くらいゆっくり乗馬して
とても素敵な時間でした。
ガイドさんが、写真撮ってくれたり率先してくれたので嬉しかったです。
Thank you for your thoughtful review. We are truly happy to hear that you were able to relax and enjoy your time. When you visit Hawaii again, please consider joining us for another tour.
ご丁寧なレビューありがとうございます。お客様がゆっくりと楽しんでいただけて心より嬉しく思います。またハワイにお越しになられた際は他のツアーに是非ご参加してみてください。
My fourth-grade daughter had some horseback riding experience in Japan, but her parents had almost none, yet we felt comfortable participating. Since we met at the location, we rented a car through an app and headed there. It took just over an hour to arrive from our hotel in Waikiki. Our group consisted of a total of eight people, with only our family of three being Japanese. The rest were Europeans and Asians. My wife speaks English, but my daughter and I only know a little. Still, we managed just fine. It was amazing to be able to ride horses along the white sandy beach. There was a height restriction for horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch, so my daughter couldn't participate there, but this tour was fine for ages six and up, so there was no problem. There was also a polo practice area, and it was fun to watch the polo practice.
小学四年生の娘は日本で何度か乗馬経験がありましたが、両親はほぼ乗馬経験なし、それでも安心して参加できました。現地集合のため、アプリでカーシェアリングの車を借り、現地へ。ワイキキ のホテルから1時間強くらいで到着しました。我々が参加した組は合計8名で日本人は我々家族三人のみ。あとは、欧米人とアジア系の方々。家内は英語を喋りますが私と娘は片言。それでもなんとかなりました。白い砂浜を馬に乗って散歩できるなんて最高でした。クアロアランチへの乗馬は身長制限があり、娘が参加できませんでしたが、こちらのツアーは確か6歳以上だったので問題ありませんでした。ポロの練習場が併設されていて、ポロの練習も見られて楽しかったです。
I was scared to do this at first, but it was worth every second and every penny spent!!
The captain and crew were friendly, gave clear instructions and seemed to know what they were doing.
I would recommend anyone who typically suffers from seasickness, or who hasn't done this before to have some medication for that handy, but by all means, get this experience under your belt and thank me later!
