All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

The tour started at 3 PM. There is a restaurant next to the meeting place for the tour on the beach at Hilton Hawaiian Village, so we took our time having lunch there before joining the tour.

I had some concerns because I heard there was bad weather until the day before, and it was an afternoon tour, but those worries were unnecessary as we were able to see a lot of fish.

午後3時からのツアーでした。
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジのビーチ内、ツアー集合場所横にレストランがあるので、そこでゆっくり昼食をとってから参加しました。

前日まで荒天だったと聞くし、午後のツアーだし、と少し心配していましたが、そんな心配は無用で、たくさんの魚たちに会うことができました。

My husband and I parasailed once before but for my 21-yr-old daughter, this was her first time. We all had a blast. Our crew made everyone feel at ease and made the experience even more fun with their enthusiasm. Would recommend to everyone looking for a great adventure.

A trip to Hawaii to celebrate my son's coming of age. It was my first time snorkeling, but thanks to the kind guidance of Dan and Chieko, I had a great time and even got to see a turtle, which made for wonderful memories! I was able to keep up thanks to both of you! Thank you very much. I look forward to seeing you again when I visit Hawaii! (^ ^)

息子の成人祝いのHAWAII旅。初シュノーケリングでしたが ダンさん チエコさんの親切なご指導のおかげで
とても楽しめたし、カメにも出会え良い思い出となりました！私もなんとかついて行けたのはお二人のおかげですっ！ありがとうございました。また、HAWAIIへ行った時にはよろしくお願いしますねっ！(^ ^)

It was my first experience with a 150m parasailing, and although I was anxious, it felt amazing and the view was fantastic. Diamond Head was even more impressive from above than from the ground.

150mパラセイルにはじめての体験でしたが、不安だったですが、とても気持ち良く景色も最高で、地上からよりもダイアモンドヘッドが感動的でした。

We participated as a family of four: a couple in their early 30s and their parents in their late 50s and 60s. The shop is located on the Diamond Head side, within walking distance from the main hotels in Waikiki, but since we weren't sure about the distance until we actually went to Waikiki, we opted for the shuttle service. We rented rash guards and aqua shoes at the shop. It was a group lesson, but during our time slot, there were only five of us: our family and one other Korean woman in her 30s, with two staff members assisting us. We learned how to ride the waves while watching a video in the shop. After that, we moved to the beach and practiced the motions of riding the waves on the sand multiple times together. Then it was time to hit the ocean! Paddling was really tough, but both my mother and I managed to get out. The waves in Waikiki in March were quite gentle, suitable for beginners. In the summer, the waves get bigger, so it's advised not to go too far out. Because the waves were calm, it seemed impossible to ride them without paddling strongly, and when the waves came, the staff would give us a push. That helped us catch the waves! My husband and I were able to stand on the board for about five times, quite long. My mother, in her late 50s, also tried to stand several times and fell off the board, but she managed to stand for two longer periods and seemed to have a lot of fun! I wore contact lenses, and there were no issues at all. About ten years ago, I tried surfing a little at Kujukuri in Chiba, and I felt it was very painful to fall into the sea there because it was so beautiful, but here, it was not painful at all. The two staff members who accompanied us were very friendly. Once you can stand, it really feels refreshing!

30代前半の夫婦、とその両親(50代後半、60代)の家族4人で参加しました。ショップはワイキキの主要ホテルよりもダイヤモンドヘッド側で、徒歩圏内なのですが、実際にワイキキに行ってみるまで距離感覚がわからなかったため、送迎ありで利用しました。ショップでラッシュガードとアクアシューズを借ります。グループレッスンだったのですが、私たちの時間帯は、私たち家族ともう一人30代の韓国人女性のみの計5人にスタッフの方が2人ついてくれました。ショップ内でビデオを見ながら、波の乗り方を学びます。その後、ビーチへ移動し、砂浜でボードの上で実際に波に乗る動作を何回もみんなで反復します。そしていざ海へ！パドリングが本当にきつかった、、、ですが、私も母もなんとか沖へ。3月のワイキキの波はかなり穏やかで、「初心者向けの波」のようです。夏になるともっと波が大きくなるため、あまり沖には出ないようです。波が穏やかなため、自力で波に乗るには、かなり強くパドリングしないと無理なようで、波がくるとスタッフの方が押してくれます。それで波に乗れます！私たち夫婦は5回くらい、かなり長くボードの上に立つことができました。50代後半の母も何回か立てそうになりながらもボードから落ちていましたが、2回長く立つことができ、とても楽しかったようです！コンタクト装着していますが、全然問題ありませんでした。10年ほど前、千葉の九十九里で少しだけサーフィンをしてみたことがあるのですが、海がとても綺麗なので(?)、九十九里の時はボードから海に落ちるととても苦しいと感じたのですが笑、全く苦しくなかったです。同行してくれたスタッフ2人の方々はとてもフレンドリーでした。立つことができると、本当に気分爽快です！

I participated with my husband on our honeymoon. After getting on the pickup car at the hotel, we took a small boat at the dock. It was quite fast, and it was thrilling and fun. Once we went a bit offshore, we finally started parasailing! The weather was very nice that day, and although I was scared at first, I was moved by the beautiful scenery we could see! I was very satisfied and truly glad we participated.

ハネムーンで夫と二人で参加しました。
ホテルにてピックアップの車に乗ったあと、船着き場にて小型ボートに乗ります。
結構なスピードでこれもスリル満点で楽しかったです。
少し沖に行った辺りでいよいよパラセーリング開始です！
この日は天候がとても良く、最初は怖かったものの、とても美しい景色を見ることができて感動しました！
とても大満足で、本当に参加してよかったです。

I had a great time. I was a bit anxious due to the lack of detailed explanations regarding safety, but once I experienced it, the scenery was beautiful, and I enjoyed it. If I had to mention something, during the latter part of the parasailing, some groups touched the seawater upon landing, so it's best to prepare for the cold. Also, it's advisable to use the restroom beforehand.

十二分に楽しめました。安全に関する部分の細かい説明が少なかったので少し不安でしたがいざ体験してみると景色も良くて良かったです。強いて言うならパラセーリング中の後半、着陸時にグループによっては海の中の海水に触れているグループがあったので寒さ対策はしっかりしておいた方が良いのとトイレは事前に済ましておいた方がいいです。

This parasailing experience was my second time as a repeat visitor. Last time, I had so much fun and felt a thrill and refreshment that I wanted to try it again when I visited Hawaii. This time, perhaps because there were two fewer groups than last time, it felt like we were able to fly for a longer time. Also, since there wasn't much wind last time, I was desperately clinging to the railing to avoid falling while the yacht was flying quite a bit, but this time, the wind was just right, and I was able to ride calmly on the yacht, which was comfortable. The crew was also very fun and lively, making for a truly enjoyable time. The shuttle driver was very nice this time as well, engaging in fun conversation and even treating us to drinks on the way back. For my third time, I will try the 150 meters.

このパラセーリングは、リピーターで二度目です。
前回、とても楽しくスリルと爽快感を味わえたので、ハワイに行くならまたトライしたいと思っていました。
今回は、前回より二組分少なかったせいか、長い時間飛ぶことができたように思います。
また、前回は風があまりなかったため、ヨットをかなり飛ばしていたので、落ちないように手すりにしがみつき必死でしたが、今回は風もほどよくあったのか、ヨットでも落ち着いて乗っていることができ、快適でした。
クルーの方も、とても楽しく盛り上げてくださったので、本当に楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来ました。
送迎の方も今回はとても良い方で、楽しくお話をして盛り上げてくれ、帰りにはドリンクまでごちそうしてくれました。
三回目は、150ｍをトライさせていただきます。

I think there are various activities that keep things interesting. The staff was friendly, and it was a fun day. I definitely recommend it!

いろんなアクティビティがあり飽きないと思います
スタッフも親切でたのしい一日でした
ぜひおすすめします

I had a fear of heights, but I decided to challenge myself!
It wasn't scary at all!
The ocean was beautiful, and the view was amazing!
I would love to do it again if I have the chance!
I just want to be careful about seasickness!

高所恐怖症でしたが、挑戦してみました！
全然怖くなかったです！
とにかく海が綺麗で、景色が最高でした！
また機会があればやりたいです！
ただ船酔いは、気をつけたいです！

My husband and I participated in a 150-meter parasailing experience. It was my second time parasailing, but the last time I did it at another place, it was only about 60 meters, so I thought I’d challenge myself and go for the highest one!

There was only one other couple, a Japanese couple, besides us, so the announcements regarding safety precautions were made in Japanese.

The weather was a bit bad that day, with light rain and wind, which made it quite shaky when we were up in the air, and it was a little scary, but the view was amazing and felt great!

Last time, there were many participants, and we came down quickly once we reached the top, but this time, since there were only two couples, we were able to stay up for a much longer time!

When we came down, our feet just touched the water, but it was a bit cold.

主人と二人で150メートルのパラセイルに参加しました。パラセイルは2回目でしたが、前回は他のとこで確か60メートルくらいのやつだったので、せっかくなら、と一番高いやつに挑戦しました！
参加者は、私たちの他にもう一組日本人のカップルだけだったので、注意事項などのアナウンスは日本語が流れていました。
この日は少し天気が悪く、小雨と風で上空にいるときは、なかなかの揺れで少し怖かったけど、とてもいい眺めで気持ちよかったです！
前回は参加者が多くトップまでいったらすぐ降りてきてたのですが、今回は二組だけだったせいか、とても長い時間飛ばしてもらえました！
降りてきてくるときに足だけ海にポチャンと着水してもらいましたが、少し寒かったです。

I participated in the morning session and chose the 90m option. There were three groups, including us, totaling seven people. The "m" likely refers to the length of the rope, and at 90m, it felt like there was no slack in the rope, making it rise quite high. The 150m option seemed to have a bit of slack, so it didn't look like it was going as high. If it's your first time, I think the 90m option is sufficient since the price is also lower.

It would be nice to have a waterproof phone case that you can hang around your neck to take photos from above. I'm worried about dropping a selfie stick. I wasn't sure about the tipping standard, so I gave $20 each to the two instructors, but it seems that wasn't necessary. They took about 112 photos for us. You can decide whether to purchase them after looking at the photos.

朝イチの参加で90mにしました。
私達を含め３組7人でした。
mは恐らく紐の長さなので、90mだと紐のたるむ部分がなくてかなり上まで上がっている気がしました。150mの方は紐が少したるんでそんなに高く上がっているようには見えませんでした。
初めてなら料金も安いし90mで十分だと思います。
首から下げれる防水のスマホケースがあれば上からも写真が撮れていいと思います。自撮り棒は落としそうで怖いです。
チップは相場がわからず、インストラクターの方2人に1人20ドルずつ渡しましたが、そんなに渡さなくて良かったみたいです
写真は112枚ほどとってくれていました。
一応写真を見てから購入するかを決めれます。

The moment I entered the sea, I encountered a sea turtle! After that, I was lucky enough to see dolphins from the boat! The staff were very kind and made me feel comfortable participating in the tour! ❤︎ I definitely want to use this service again.

海に入った瞬間ウミガメに会えました！
そのあと船からイルカも運良く見ることができました！
スタッフの方もとても優しく接してくれたため安心してツアーに参加できました！❤︎
また是非利用したいと思います。

The pickup was on time! There was a child who got a bit drunk, but the kind brother took good care of him! The explanations were easy to understand, and he made it fun and exciting, so I would like to participate again!

お迎えも時間通り！
酔った子がいたのですが、ちゃんと見てくれてすごく優しいお兄さんでした！
説明もわかりやすく、楽しく盛り上げてくれたのでまた参加したいと思いました！

I participated alone. I was able to hike while feeling the power of nature in Oahu. I took many deep breaths and enjoyed the forest bathing.
Along the way, there were explanations about the trees, and I was able to take pictures at photo spots, making it a fun experience like a field trip.
The guide, Shanti, was very cheerful, and her explanations were easy to understand, which was great.
The lunch bento was delicious and made with gentle ingredients for the body.
The hike healed my body and mind, and the bento satisfied my stomach.

一人で参加しました。オアフの自然のパワーを身体に感じながら、ハイキング出来ました。沢山深呼吸をして森林浴を楽しみました。
途中、樹についての説明あり、また写真スポットで撮影してもらえたり、遠足のような楽しい時間でした。
ガイドのシャンティさん、とても明るく、説明も分かりやすく、良かったです。
昼食の弁当も美味しく、また身体に優しい素材で作られていました。
ハイキングで身体と心が癒され、弁当で胃が満たされました。

The jungle tour and the movie location tour were a lot of fun. My son was thrilled to visit the filming location of his favorite, Jurassic World! On the way back from the jungle tour, an American behind us shouted "more fast!" and the jeep felt like a roller coaster, which got everyone super excited! Due to time constraints, we couldn't join other tours, so I'm planning to go again next time.

ジャングルツアー、映画ロケ地ツアー楽しいです。
息子は大好きなジュラシックワールドのロケ地に興奮！
ジャングルツアーでひと通り見学した帰り道、後ろのアメリカ人がmore fast!と叫び、ジープはまるでジェットコースター状態でみんなで吹っ飛ばさそうになり、これまた大興奮！
時間の関係上、他のツアーに参加出来なかったので次回も行こうと思っています。

We had so much fun! It was our first time and we cant wait to go back! Our instructor was so nice and he took his time and showed us everything. We seen lots of fish and a couple turtles

It was close to Waikiki, simple, and very good. This was my second time parasailing in Hawaii. Previously, I did parasailing combined with snorkeling at Hanauma, but I was disappointed because the instructor there was of Chinese descent and quite indifferent. This time, I felt it was very good.

ワイキキからも近くシンプルで非常に良かったです。
ハワイでは2度目のパラセーリングになりました。
以前 ハナウマシュノーケルとセットのパラセーリングをしましたが ハナウマのインストラクターが中国系の人で素っ気なく残念な思いをした分 今回は 非常に良く感じました。

Our driver Larry was totally awesome! He was so knowledgeable, informative and entertaining. We received a great sightseeing tour of Honolulu/Waikiki and the surrounding area. If you request Larry specifically as your driver/guide, you won't be disappointed. He is very good at what he does. What can I say about Pearl Harbor? Everyone needs to visit this site. Unfortunately, the Arizona Memorial was closed for repairs so you will be given a boat ride in the harbor instead. But that's just a reason to come back and do it again.

Beginners can ride too! As mentioned, I was able to ride. Jimmy, who taught me, explained everything clearly. The staff also engaged in conversation, helping to ease my nerves. After changing, we took photos and played games, which was a lot of fun. I highly recommend it!

初心者の方も乗れます！の通り、乗れました。
教えてくれたジミーさんがわかりやすく教えてくれました。
スタッフの方も常に会話してくれて、緊張をほぐしてくれました。
着替えた後も写真を撮ってくれたり、ゲームをしたりと楽しめました。
おススメです！

I was surprised to see two tour buses at the meeting place, with people from various countries. However, there was a staff member who spoke Japanese, and the guided tour was also in Japanese. We gathered at the meeting place according to the schedule for each plan, and we experienced a total of three activities. Visiting filming locations is definitely a must. It was fun to see places from Jurassic World and more, and the magnificent scenery is truly wonderful. It mentioned that those with cardiovascular diseases should be cautious, but everything except the zip line was manageable. Long pants aren't necessarily required (though they might be for horseback riding). Since it's primarily a ranch, there is some smell, but there are also many animals. However, the lunch buffet wasn't very good, so I give it four stars.

集合場所へ行くと観光バスが2台でびっくり。各国の人がいました。しかし日本語を話すスタッフがいて、ガイドツアーも日本語でした。いくつかのプラン毎に牧場内の集合時間に集合場所に集まって、全部で３つ体験しました。やはりロケ地巡りは外せないでしょう。ジュラシックワールドやら色々、楽しかったし、とにかく壮大な景色が素晴らしいです。循環器疾患があるとダメだと書いてありましたが、ジップライン以外は余裕です。長ズボンとかも別に不要です（乗馬は要るのかも）基本牧場なので臭いはしますが、動物もたくさんいます。ただ、ランチビッフェは美味しくなかったので星4つです。

I truly felt that participating was worthwhile. Before boarding, I requested some photos, and they took not only the overall shots of parasailing but also captured our expressions and the views from the boat, totaling around 90 photos. It's necessary to inform the staff and the captain that you'd like photos before boarding and before parasailing, but it's reassuring that you can decide whether to purchase them after returning to the office and viewing the photos. The cost for the photos was $30, and we gave the captain a total of $20 in tips for the four of us. It created the best memories!

参加してよかったと心から思います。乗船前に写真をお願いし、撮っていただきましたが、パラセイルの全体像だけでなく、表情、船からの景色も撮ってくださり、90枚程度撮っていただきました。乗船前やパラセイル前にスタッフや船長さんに写真が欲しいと伝える必要がありますが、事務所に帰ってきて写真を見てから購入の有無を決めることができるので安心です。写真代は30ドル、チップは4人で合わせて船長さんに20ドル渡しました。最高の思い出ができました！

This boat trip was amazing! The captain was extremely knowledgeable and even looked out for dolphins and whales for us! We werent able to see any dolphins, but we were able to see a whale. We also saw some honu's, (green sea turtles) and some really cool fish. He also had a lot of great jokes, which made me smile! Well worth it!

I think Manoa Falls is wonderful, but the path to get there was steep. Perhaps it was due to the rain from the previous day, but most of the people coming down had muddy shoes, which made me a bit anxious as I climbed. However, rather than worrying about my shoes, I was focused on avoiding the mud and not slipping, so I ended up not having the leisure to enjoy the surrounding scenery. For a hiking beginner like me, it was a tough course.

マノア滝は、すばらしいと思いますが辿り着くまでの道が険しかったです。
また前日の雨の影響なのでしょうか。下りてくるほとんどの方の靴が泥だらけで少し不安を覚えながら登りましたが、靴を気にするよりも、泥濘を避けながら滑らないよう登ることに必死で結局、周りの景色を見る余裕すら無かった気がします。私のようなハイキング初心者には、キツイコースでした。

The instructors were lively and had great energy even early in the morning. I paid a $30 tip. I've heard that you might see whales and dolphins, so I think you can look forward to that.

インストラクターさん方のノリが良くて朝イチでもテンションアゲアゲでした。チップは$30払いました。クジラやイルカが見えるときもあるらしいので期待していいと思います。

We boarded the boat and set off for parasailing! I only observed from the boat while my two children experienced it. The captain and staff had great conversations and jokes, which made my observation really enjoyable.

The staff took care of all the preparations! Once we arrived at the starting point, they put on a harness-like gear and we started right away. There was a slight feeling of floating, but the breathtaking view in front of me quickly made any fear disappear. It was quite high. If you're afraid of heights, you might find yourself gripping the belt tightly, but if you're not, you can relax and let go with one hand!

I read that there was a possibility of landing in the water, so I wore a swimsuit, but I only got wet up to my butt, so I didn't get too soaked. However, it's definitely better to wear a swimsuit. It might depend on the season, but since it was early morning, it was quite cold. You can place your belongings at your feet, so it's a good idea to have something to cover up with.

Due to the weather and being the first ride of the day, by the time we returned to the port, I was able to wear a T-shirt and shorts over my swimsuit.

港から船に乗りいざパラセイリングへ！
私は船で見学のみ、子ども2人で体験してきました。船長、スタッフの方のノリの良い会話、ジョークも楽しく見学している私もすごく楽しめました。
準備はスタッフの方が決めてくれます！ハーネスっぽい装備をつけてもらってポイント地点に着いたらすぐにスタート。多少の浮遊感はありましたが目の前に広がる絶景にすぐに怖さも吹き飛びます。結構高いです。高所恐怖症だとベルトをひたすら掴んで硬直状態になりますが、そうでないなら片手を離してリラックスもできます！
海への着地の可能性ありと書いてあったので水着でいきましたが、お尻までボチャンと浸かるくらいであまり濡れませんでした。でも水着で行った方がいいです。ただ時期にもよると思いますが、早朝だったのでかなり寒かったです。荷物は足元におけるので羽織るものがあったほうがいいですよ。
気候と一番最初だったこともあり港に着く頃には水着の上からTシャツと短パンが着れました。

This was my fourth trip to Hawaii, but my first time parasailing! Since I was staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village, I was able to walk directly to the meeting point. Since it was a special trip to Hawaii, I decided to challenge myself with the 150m height, and it was definitely the right choice! I kept rising higher and felt like we were the only ones up there, which was an amazing feeling. I wondered if this is how birds feel when they fly? It was so exhilarating!!!

They said it would last about 15 minutes, but I think we were actually in the air for about 7 or 8 minutes. It cost nearly $100, so I gave it four stars. There were about four other groups participating, but since we were the first to fly and headed out to sea, we could only see the ocean in front of us and had to turn back to see the view of Waikiki. I recommend boarding the boat last so you can fly facing Waikiki.

Also, if you ask, they will take photos for about $20, but I think it's fine to ask someone from another group to take your picture. Since we flew first, we didn't have time to ask, so we ended up not getting any photos, but the experience is etched in my memory!

ハワイ4回目ですが初のパラセーリング！
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジ宿泊だったので徒歩で直接集合場所に行けました。
せっかくのハワイ旅行だし、ということで150mにチャレンジしましたが、これが大正解でした！
どんどん高く上がっていき、上空を私達だけで独り占めしてるようなそんな気分になれました^^
鳥ってこんな感じで飛んでるのかな？気持ちいいーーーーー！！！
と大興奮でした♪
15分？とのことでしたが実際に飛んでいたのは7.8分ほどだったと思います^^;
それで100ドル近くがかかったので星4つにしました。
ツアー客4組ほどと一緒に参加するのですが、私たちが一番最初に飛んだ時に沖に向かって進んでいたため、前の景色は海しか見えず、後を振り返りながらワイキキの景色をみないといけませんでした^^;
船に乗り込むのを最後にすると、ワイキキ方面を向いて飛べるのでおすすめです。
あと写真はお願いすれば20ドルくらいで撮ってくれますが、他のグループの方たちにお願いして撮ってもらう感じでいいと思います。
私達は最初に飛んだのでお願いする暇もなく結局写真は取れませんでしたが目に焼き付けました(笑)

I was picked up by bus at the hotel and departed from the bay near Hilton Village. It mentioned that towels were needed, but it was fine without them. You can also leave your valuables on the cruiser, so there's no need to worry.

It was drizzling a bit at departure, but once we got out to sea, it cleared up and we enjoyed beautiful weather!

The crew was friendly and engaged in conversation, which really enhanced the atmosphere, making it a lot of fun! Be sure to enjoy the breathtaking scenery and refreshing experience!

バスでホテルまで迎えに来てもらい、ヒルトン村のそばの湾から出発。
タオル必要と書いてありましたが、無くて大丈夫です。貴重品もクルーザーで置いておけるので安心してください。

出発時はパラパラと雨が降ってましたが、沖に出ると晴れ、快晴の中でした！

クルーの人が気さくに話しかけてくれ、雰囲気も盛り上げてくれるのでとても楽しかったです！
圧倒的な景色と爽快感を是非楽しんでください！

Second time I have used this tour to get to and from Hanauma Bay. Especially a great value if you already have your own snorkeling equipment as you can take the price down a few dollars without equipment rental.

Go first thing in the morning and be ready to get into the water by 8am or earlier. That way you can snorkel without the crowds until the circus arrives around 10am. By then I had already gotten 2 full hours of relatively unspoiled pics of all that I wanted to take and enjoyed lounging on the beach until the pickup time.

It was an experience like no other, and I had so much fun! The captain and crew were kind and made it enjoyable, so I felt at ease taking on the challenge. I want to ride again!

今まで体験したことのない感覚ですごく楽しめました！
船長さんたちも優しく、楽しませてくれたので安心して挑めました。
もう一度乗りたいです！
