All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

Had a great experience! Was able to contact the Vendor and reschedule time with no hassle. Option of dry or wet landing!
They take excellent pictures for an additional fee but they are worth buying!

Family members not flying, can purchase as an observer and follow along to watch.

Close to Waikiki, easy walk or commute to their location.

Seeing Diamond Head from the sky was amazing. The surprise when coming down was also fun. I had experienced parasailing in Okinawa, so I thought I wouldn't need motion sickness medication, but the waves in the open sea were intense, and I wished I had taken some.

空から見るダイヤモンドヘッドは最高でした。降りてくる時のサプライズも楽しかったです。
沖縄でもパラセーリングは体験していたので、酔い止めは不要だと思っていたのですが、外海での波のうねり凄くて酔い止め飲めば良かったなと思いました。

Parasailing was a lot of fun, and it was great that they let us drive the boat and fly as a family of four. However, I requested photos for $40, and in the end, the data transfer to my smartphone didn't go well, so I received an SD card instead. Unfortunately, the SD card has an error, and I can't check the data at the moment. It's really disappointing not to have any photos from such a fun experience. Since I was returning home the next morning, there was nothing more I could do, and I had to go back. I'm really sad about it...

パラセーリングはとても楽しくて、ボートを運転させてくれたり、４人家族で飛ばせてくれたりと最高だったのですが、、、
写真を40ドルでお願いし、最後スマホへデータ移行がうまくいかず、SDカードをもらいました。しかし、SDカードエラーになってしまい、今のところデータが確認できていません。とても楽しかった体験なだけに、写真が残らないのが残念でなりません。
翌日朝から帰国だったので、もうどうすることも出来ず帰国しました。
悲しいです。。

I felt better than I imagined, and I want to ride again. Thank you very much. I was scared at first, but it was okay.

想像以上に気分が良くなりました、また乗りたいです。ありがとうございました。最初は怖かったですが大丈夫でした

Meeting at the hotel, you can board directly from the beach behind the hotel, and you'll be back in the heart of Waikiki before noon, making it very time-efficient. The snorkeling time is about an hour in the area with sea turtles, and afterwards, we went sailing near Diamond Head. We also saw dolphins. I think this tour is just right for those who feel that spending a whole day in the ocean is a bit much.

ホテル集合～そのままホテル裏のビーチから乗船、お昼前にはワイキキ中心部に戻れるのでとても時間の効率がよいです。シュノーケルの時間はウミガメのいるエリアで賞味1時間ちょっと、その後はダイアモンドヘッドの前あたりまでセーリング。イルカも見れました。丸1日使ってガッツリ海に入るのはちょっと・・・という感じの方には丁度良いツアーだと思います。

We participated as a family of five adults. Riding the wind and the waves, we encountered sea turtles, making it an unforgettable experience in Hawaii.

成人の家族五人で参加。風に乗り波に乗り、ウミガメにも出会え、ハワイでの忘れられない体験となりました。

Unlike surfing, it's easy to ride the waves. Everyone paddles together to row out to the sea. It was March, but it wasn't cold and was quite comfortable. I was able to ride the waves about three times, and it felt great. The reception was very accommodating and reassuring. On rainy days, they notify you via LINE call on the morning of the reservation, and they were able to handle postponements on the spot.

サーフィンとは違い簡単に波乗り出来ます。パドルで全員協力して沖まで漕ぎます。3月でしたが寒くもなく快適でした。3回程波に乗れました、気持ち良いですよ。受付はとても対応よく、安心。雨の日の予約は当日朝にLINE電話にてお知らせあり、その場で延期対応頂けました。

The path has almost no shade and goes straight up. The last set of stairs now has a detour, which is reassuring. It took about 45 minutes to climb and 30 minutes to descend for a fourth grader.

日陰は、ほぼ無く細い道をひたすら登ります。
最後の階段は迂回路が出来たので安心です
小学生4年生で登り45分程度、下り30分程度でした

The driver's response was very polite. It seems that it's possible to take a regular bus, but in the early morning, this kind of shuttle service is more reassuring.

運転手さんの対応はご丁寧でした。
路線バスでも行けない事は無さそうですが、早朝の場合はこうした送迎サービスの方が安心です。

Due to the rain, we couldn't see the fireworks and had a buffet inside the hotel instead. We had a family photo taken, which we could purchase, but it wasn't free. There was a welcome drink available. Unfortunately, we didn't receive any leis. It was disappointing since the kids were looking forward to it. We had drink tickets for three drinks, but we only had one. The cultural experience felt a bit lacking as well. The show was good, though. I thought we wouldn't be able to see the fire dance indoors, but we were able to, which was nice. The buffet had a limited selection, but it was delicious. The seasoning was suitable for Japanese tastes, and the kids went back for seconds. Overall, it was below expectations due to the rain, but I hope to participate again next time, praying for sunny weather.

雨のため花火は見れず、ホテル内でのビュッフェでした。家族写真を撮ってもらい、購入できます。無料ではありません。ウェルカムドリンクあり。レイはもらえませんでした。子供が楽しみにしていたので残念でした。ドリンクチケットが3杯分ありましたが、一杯しか飲みませんでした。文化体験も、今一な感じでした。ショーは良かったです。ファイヤーダンスも室内だから見れないと思っていましたが、見れたので良かったです。ビュッフェは品数少なかったですが、美味しかったです。日本人にも合う味付けで、子供達もおかわりに行きました。トータルして雨だったので期待以下でしたが、次回も晴れるのを祈って参加したいと思います。

I rode a submarine for the first time. I had a great time enjoying the underwater world where fish and sea turtles live. It became a memorable time in Hawaii! I highly recommend it.

初めて潜水艦に乗りました。お魚やウミガメが暮らしている海底の世界を満喫できてとっても楽しかったです。ハワイで思い出に残る時間となりました！とってもおすすめです。

The scenery was very beautiful, and I was satisfied with the experience. Even with good weather, the boat sways quite a bit. I think it would be better to have some motion sickness medication.

景色がとてもよく体験できて満足です。天候が良くても船はかなり揺れます。酔い止めがあったほうがいいのかなと思います。

The two brothers from the crew were very friendly and accommodating. They took a lot of great photos for us, capturing us with the air and Diamond Head in the background.

クルーの２兄弟がフランクな対応をしてくれる。写真もたくさん撮ってくれたいい思いです。エアーやダイヤモンドヘッドをバックに撮影してくれている。

I was told that we could hike at our own pace, but considering the meeting time, I couldn't take it too slowly. For those who don't exercise much on a regular basis, want to take breaks while climbing, or want to enjoy the scenery at a leisurely pace, it might feel a bit rushed.

There are Japanese brochures available, and the driver spoke a little Japanese, which was reassuring. I didn't feel particularly anxious about that.

The pickup was on time, but the return meeting was about 15 minutes late. I felt a bit disappointed, thinking that if I had known, I could have taken it a bit slower.

自分のペースでハイキングとあったのですが、集合時間を考えるとあまりゆっくりはできなかったです。日頃からあまり運動をされていない方、休憩しなから登りたい方、景色をゆっくり楽しみたい方には慌ただしいかなと思います。
日本語のパンフレットもあるし、運転してくださる方は片言ですが日本語を話してくださりました。特に不安はありません。
お迎えは遅刻することはありませんでしたが、帰りの待ち合わせは15分ぐらい遅れてきました。それなら、もう少しゆっくりできたのにと少し残念な気持ちになりました。

It was a very good experience, but it was the scariest thing I've ever done in my life, haha. I'll write the key points and details!

【Key Points】
- Motion sickness medication is a must.
- It’s cold and wet on the boat, so wear a swimsuit with a long-sleeve cover-up, and bring a towel to dry off and a change of clothes.
- A waterproof case to hang around your neck to protect your smartphone from water is essential.
- Your hair and face will get messy on the boat, so give up on your appearance.
- It’s scary on the boat, but you can handle the slow ascent when flying.

【Details】
The meeting place was right next to a small lake at the Hilton Hotel called Hilton Lagoon. I was able to take a taxi close by, but after getting out at the Hilton entrance, I walked towards the area with lots of yachts in Hilton Lagoon and found it right away!

First, you sign a consent form and then immediately get on the boat. When I went, we weren’t allowed to wear life jackets until just before putting on the parachute (we weren’t wearing life jackets on the boat), and that situation was really scary, haha. We did get to wear life jackets when it was time to fly, though.

I’m prone to motion sickness, but I underestimated it that day and forgot to take my motion sickness medication, so I got really seasick and ended up throwing up in the sea towards the end, haha.

When I went, we took a pretty fast small boat out for about 15-20 minutes before flying. We were quite far from the shore, to the point where I couldn’t see any palm trees, hotels, or buildings. The view from the boat was of the vast ocean, but once we flew, I could see Diamond Head and the beach in the distance, which was beautiful.

Flying wasn’t too scary. The ascent and descent were slow, so I didn’t feel my stomach drop at all! The height was quite high (the boats looked very small from above), which was pretty scary for someone with a fear of heights, haha.

However, if you prepare yourself mentally and think, "This is scary!" I think it can be quite fun, and I was satisfied to see views that you can’t see unless you do it!

とても良い体験でしたが、人生で1番怖かったです笑 要点と詳細を書きます！
【要点】
・酔い止め必須
・船の上寒いし濡れるので、水着＋長袖羽織で参加し、濡れた体を拭くタオルと着替え必須。
・スマホを水から守る首にかける防水ケース必須。
・髪も顔も船の上でめちゃくちゃになるのでビジュアルは諦める。
・船の上が怖くて、飛ぶのはゆっくりなのでいける。
【詳細】
集合場所は、ヒルトン・ラグーンというヒルトンホテルの小さい湖みたいなところの真横にありました。タクシーで近くまで行けましたが、ヒルトンのエントランスでタクシーを降りて、そこからヒルトン・ラグーンの中をヨットがたくさんある方へ歩くとすぐ見つけられました！
最初に同意書にサインして、すぐ船に乗ります。私の時はパラシュートを付ける直前までライフジャケットは着せて貰えず(船の上ライフジャケット着てなかった)、その状況がとても怖かったです笑。飛ぶときはライフジャケット着せて貰えましたが。
私は酔いやすいのですが、当日甘く見ていて、酔い止めを飲むのを忘れていて、めちゃくちゃ船酔いして最後の方海にゲロってしまいました笑
私のときは、結構スピードの速い小舟で15～20分くらい沖に行ってから飛びました。岸からかなり離れて、ヤシの木やホテルやビルなどは全く目視できない距離感です。船の上の景色は大海原でしたが、飛んでみるとダイヤモンドヘッドや遠くにビーチが見えて綺麗でした。
飛ぶのはあまり怖くなかったです。ゆっくりと上昇し下降もゆっくりなので、内蔵が浮くとかは全くなかったです！高さはかなり高く(上空からの船はとっても小さく見えた)、高所恐怖症には結構怖かった笑
でも、怖い！と心構えをして行けば、結構楽しいと思いますし、実際、やらないと見れない景色が見れて満足しました！

It was a refreshing experience that you can't have anywhere else! The two staff members also entertained us, making it a very enjoyable time!

他にはできない体験で爽快感がありました！スタッフのおふたりも楽しませてくれてとても楽しい時間になりました！

We really had a good time. As the person in the very front, I got pretty wet, but the water was not cold at all. It was awesome seeing Waikiki from a surfer’s perspective.

The upbeat background music was blasting as we sped out to sea on a rocking boat, wearing safety jackets, and before we knew it, we took off into the sky. It felt like flying, and the view was amazing! But in the next moment, I wanted to return quickly. The time felt long.

ノリの良いBGMが爆音でかかっていてハイスピードで沖に出て揺れの激しい船内でセーフジャケット着用してあっという間に空へ飛び立ちました。空を飛んでいるみたいで景色も最高でした！
でも次の瞬間早く戻りたい。時間が長く感じました。

We will take a boat to the sea at Waikiki, and during that time, we can see Diamond Head and the streets of Waikiki. There aren't many fish in the waters of Waikiki, but there are a lot of fish around the sunken ship, which is very interesting. When you take photos, they come out a bit blue and are somewhat hard to see, but if you actually see it, you can tell that the sea is beautiful. The interior of the ship is a bit cold. However, it was truly a wonderful experience, and I don't think I'll have such an experience again.

船でワイキキの海に行きますが、その間にダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの街並みを見ることができます。ワイキキの海の中はあまり魚はいないですが、沈没船の周りには多くの魚がおり、非常に面白いです。写真を撮ると青みがかかり、少し見にくいですが、実際に見れば美しい海だと言うことがわかります。艦内は少し寒いです。ただ、本当に素晴らしい体験でしたし、こんな経験は2度とできないでしょう。

The underwater scenery with sunken ships and airplane wrecks was amazing. We saw a lot of fish as well. However, my wife seemed to be struggling with seasickness.

沈没船や飛行機の残骸など、海の中は凄かった。たくさんの魚もみられた。　
ただ、妻は船酔いで辛そうでした。

It was fun! The staff was lively, and not only was the parasailing itself enjoyable, but the journey there was fun too! Even getting seasick is a good memory, haha!

楽しかったです！
スタッフさんもノリノリでパラセーリング自体はもちろん移動中も楽しかったです！！
船酔いもいい思い出です笑

What a rush !!! Excellent excursion!!
Closest thing to being in a surfboard.
Guide excelled at giving understandable directions.

The cheerful staff keeps you entertained. Although it's in English, they are accustomed to Japanese people and explain things with gestures, so there are no problems. The parasailing itself is fantastic. If I have the chance, I would like to do it again next time.

It's fine to bring bags like backpacks. You can store your belongings and sandals in the space under the seats, so they won't get wet. Of course, managing valuables is each person's responsibility. I think the photo option will be added unless you decline it. This time, I participated with three people, and one stayed on the boat, so taking photos with my smartphone was sufficient. With a smartphone, you can also take videos, and if one person is staying on the boat, I think the photo option isn't necessary. However, if there isn't anyone to take photos from the boat, it would be better to opt for it.

The boat rocked, but I didn't get seasick. It might have been influenced by the fact that there were only two groups participating and it was a short time.

陽気なスタッフが楽しませてくれます。英語ですけど、日本人に慣れていて身振り手振りで説明をしてくれるので問題ありません。パラセーリング自体は最高です。機会があれば次回もやりたいと思っています。

リュックなど荷物を持ち込んでも大丈夫です。腰掛け下のスペースに荷物やサンダルなどを入れて保管しますので水には濡れません。もちろん貴重品は各自の責任での管理となります。写真撮影のオプションは断らない限りつけられてしまうと思います。今回、私は3人名での参加で1名が船に残っている状況でしたので、スマホでの撮影で事足りました。スマホだと動画も撮れるし1名が船に残っているのであれば、写真オプションはなくても良いと思います。もし船から撮影してくれる人がいないのであれば、オプションつけた方が良いです。
船は揺れましたが船酔いはしなかったです。2組の参加で短時間であったということも影響したかもしれませんが。

My wife wanted to try it, so even though I have a fear of heights, I decided to participate. There were about ten other participants at the same time. We flew in pairs or threes, but since we were last in line, we had time to mentally prepare ourselves. I think each group flew for about seven minutes. When we actually took off, it was scary, but the view of Hawaii from the sky was breathtaking.

You can bring your phone while flying, but I didn't have much opportunity to take pictures. You can also purchase photos taken from the boat, or ask other participants to take pictures for you. The photos you buy are often taken with professional cameras, and they turned out well, so I recommend purchasing some as a keepsake.

一緒に行った妻がやってみたいとのことで、私は高所恐怖症でしたが参加することに。参加した時間は他にも参加者が多く10人くらいとなりました。2人もしくは3人で飛んでいましたが、自分達は順番が最後だったので心の準備をする時間がありました。1グループ7分程度空を飛んでいたと思います。実際に飛ぶと怖いのは怖いですが、空からのみたハワイの景色は絶景でした。
携帯も持って飛べますが、自分はあまり写真を撮る余裕はありませんでした。船からの写真は購入もできますし、他の参加者にお願いして撮ってもらうこともできます。購入した写真は本格的なカメラで撮ってもらえることもあり、写りはよかったので思い出に写真購入することをおすすめします。

I heard that we would rise to 150 meters above the ground, and I was very scared, but being in the air was very meaningful, and there was no shaking, so I enjoyed it. However, I experienced the worst seasickness ever while on the boat before taking off. I knew that a certain speed was necessary for flying, and I took motion sickness medication, but it didn't help. Others were also feeling unwell and had to sit down, so I think once in a lifetime is enough for me.

地上から150mまで上がると聞いてとても怖かったのですが、空中はとても有意義で揺れもなく楽しめました。が、飛ぶまでの船内で過去一船酔いしました。飛ぶのにそれ相応の速度が必要なのは承知しており、私は酔い止めを飲みましたがダメでした。他の方も体調不良でダウンしており、人生で1度乗れば十分かなと思いました。

I intended to do some small fish fishing, but I ended up catching a Spanish mackerel while trolling during the move!

After that, I continued fishing for small fish and was quite satisfied!

I participated with a light heart, and it was really great!

I don't understand Japanese at all.

小物釣りのつもりが移動中のトローリングでサワラカマスがヒット！

その後本来の小物釣りでも適当に釣り続けて満足でした！

軽い気持ちで参加しましたがとても良かったです！

日本語は全く通じません

It's about an hour, but you can relax by drinking some beverages, eating snacks, and enjoying the sea breeze.

1時間程度の時間ですが、
ドリンクを飲んだり、スナックを食べたり
潮風を浴びたりとゆっくりすることができます

There was a bit of cloudiness, but thanks to the captain and the curly-haired brother, I had a great time! I definitely want to participate again when I come to Hawaii next time!

少し曇りもありましたがキャプテンとチリチリ頭のお兄さんのおかげでとても楽しむことができました！
次回またハワイにきたら絶対参加したいです！

The biggest advantage is that it specializes in transportation, allowing you to focus on hiking at your own pace without unnecessary sightseeing guides or time constraints. The panoramic view from the summit is breathtaking, but the crowds due to its popularity are unavoidable. By using this shuttle, you can smoothly return to Waikiki after descending in the morning, making it a very practical option for those who want to make effective use of their time.

送迎に特化しているため、余計な観光案内や拘束時間がなく、自分のペースでハイキングに集中できる点が最大のメリットと言えます。
頂上からのパノラマビューは圧巻ですが、人気スポットゆえの混雑は避けられません。このシャトルを利用すれば下山後もスムーズにワイキキへ朝には戻れるため、時間を有効に活用したい方には非常に実用的な選択肢です。

The tour time was neither too busy nor too leisurely; it was a good amount of time. The view from Diamond Head was very beautiful, and it was a great experience to participate.

ツアーの時間は忙しくもなく時間を持て余すわけでもない、いい時間でした。ダイアモンドヘッドからの景色はとても綺麗で参加していい体験でした。
