Waikiki
I was scared to see in the photos that people were flying with relatively light gear, and I was quite nervous about flying with light equipment myself. However, it turned out to be surprisingly stable...!!! For those who are afraid, I recommend trying the 150m jump with confidence. There are views there that you won't experience anywhere else.
The crew member was playful and funny, and later when I bought the SD card (make sure to ask if photos are okay in advance!), I was amazed to see how well the pictures turned out despite the boat rocking so much.
The SD card with photos was $30, and I gave the guide a $20 tip when disembarking. I think it's a good idea to have cash prepared.
写真で結構軽装備で飛んでいるのを事前に見ていて怖かったのですが
実際軽装備で飛ぶまで結構怖かったのですが
・・・・意外と安定している・・・!!!
怖がっている方、安心して150mをおすすめします。
体験したことない景色がそこにありました。
船員さんがお茶目で面白い、と思いきや、後から買わせていただいた
SDカード(事前に写真OK!って言ってくださいね)
見てみて、あんなに揺れてる船の上から撮ってるのにめっちゃ写真撮るの上手い・・・と驚愕しました。笑
写真入SDカードが30ドル
ガイドさんに下船時チップを20ドル渡しました。
現金を用意しておくと良いと思います。
I tried parasailing for the first time in Hawaii. I participated with my uncle and aunt in their 60s, and we were able to do it together as a group of three. When we took off, the weather was bad and the scenery was gloomy, but we still had a great time. The tour guide was also a fun person, and the bright atmosphere lifted everyone's spirits.
初めてのハワイ でパラセーリングに挑戦しました。60代のおじと、おばと参加し、3人で一緒にできました。私たちが飛び立った時、お天気が悪くて、景色はどんよりしていましたが、それでも十分楽しめました。
ツアーのガイドさんも楽しい方で、明るい雰囲気でみんな気分も上がっていました。
The hotel pickup arrived on time, and the staff member was Japanese, providing excellent service.
Their attention to detail in communication made for a very reassuring experience, for which I am grateful.
I was also able to see the sea turtles properly, and the image upload service was a wonderful bonus.
ホテルのピックアップも時間までにきちんと来てくださり、日本人の方でしたが大変対応も行き届いておりました。
言葉がけも細やかで、大変安心した中での体験ができ、感謝しております。
ウミガメもちゃんと見ることができましたし、画像のアップロードも大変嬉しいサービスでした。
Dear Kei Mama, thank you for joining the Blue Hawaii Divers tour. We are very happy to hear that you were satisfied. It was great that you got to meet the adorable sea turtles! We're also glad that you were able to download the photos successfully. We look forward to seeing you again. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
けいママ様、この度はブルーハワイダイバースのツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。ご満足いただけたようでとても嬉しく思います。かわいいウミガメちゃんにも会えて、良かったですね!!お写真も無事ダウンロードできて良かったです。是非またお会いできるのをお待ちしております。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
There were only three groups that day, so it was nice to have a small number of participants. The 120M plan had quite a height, and the weather was good, so the view was great. When the boat lifted off, I felt a thrill, but surprisingly, it was quite calm up in the sky, allowing me to have a normal conversation with my partner. The two staff members on board were friendly and great at getting everyone excited. They created an SD card with photo data for each participant, and while $30 (or $35 if paid by card) is a bit pricey, the photos turned out beautifully, and since we couldn't take our own from below, I ended up buying it. I wonder if a tip of $10 to $20 is the norm.
その日は3組しかいなかったので少人数で良かった。120Mプラン、なかなか高度はあって天気も良かったので景色が良かった。ふわっと船から舞い上げられるときはスリルを感じたが、意外と空の上でも普通に静かで相方と普通に会話ができるほど穏やかな空間。船上のスタッフ2名も気さくで盛り上げ上手だった。参加者ごとに写真データのSDカードを作成してくれて、30ドル(カード払いだと35ドル)は少々値が張るけど、キレイに撮れているし、下から自分達のは撮れないので買ってしまう。チップは10~20ドルが相場なのかしら。
The scenery and overall experience were amazing!!! The weather was great, and the sea was incredibly beautiful; I didn't want to get off ^ ^ The crew was also kind and attentive, which was nice ^ ^
景色、体感すべてサイコーでした!!!
天気も良く海がかなりキレイで降りたくなかったです^ ^
クルーも親切丁寧でよかったです^ ^
The early morning reservation I made was fully booked, so I requested a time change and had various exchanges, but each time the communication was smooth.
On the day of the event, just a couple of minutes past the meeting time, I received a call from the hotel saying that the pick-up would be delayed. It was in broken Japanese, but I understood it. They informed me how long the delay would be and what kind of car would come, which made me feel reassured while waiting.
The staff member in charge was friendly and we had a very enjoyable time. There were five groups on board with us. Some people were also sightseeing on the boat. Each group had about eight minutes of time. I think seasickness depends on the weather, but no one in our group experienced it.
Everyone seemed to be about the same height.
You can bring a camera at your own risk. We were too scared to bring ours, and we regretted it. It's better to have sunscreen and sunglasses; you don't need a hat. You will be flying barefoot. Since you put your belongings under the seat, it's better to have smaller items. There is a slight splash of water.
You don’t have to buy the photos taken by the staff. By the way, they looked like grains of rice, and we couldn't tell who was flying, so we didn’t buy them. Of course, some people did purchase them.
The return transfer was also smooth without any waiting.
It was mainly in English, but they spoke clearly, so I think anyone would be fine.
I had a lot of fun, so I would like to do it again.
予約した早朝割りの回が満席になってしまったので、時間の変更依頼がきたり、色々とやりとりしましたが、毎回スムーズなやりとりでした。
当日、待合せ時間2.3分過ぎたところで
ホテルに、迎えが遅れるという入電がありました。片言でしたが日本語でした。
どのくらい遅れるか、どういう車がくるか教えてくれたので、安心して待つことが出来てとてもよかったです。
担当のスタッフの方が気さくに話してくれて
とても楽しい時間を過ごしました。
一緒に乗船したのは、5組でした。
船上で見学されてる方もいました。
一組辺りの時間は8分くらいでしょうか。
船酔いは、天候に寄ると思いますが
私たちの回ではどなたもなっていませんでした。
高さは皆おんなじだったように見えました。
カメラは自己責任ですが持って飛べます。
私たちは、ビビって持って飛ばなかったのですが後悔しました。
日焼け止めとサングラスはあった方がいいです。帽子はいりません。
素足で飛びます。
荷物はイスの下に入れるので、小さい方がいいです。
軽い海ぽちゃもあります。
スタッフが撮影してくれる写真は買わなくても大丈夫です。
ちなみに、米粒みたいで誰が飛んでるかわからなかったwwので、私たちは買いませんでした。
もちろん、購入されてる方もいます。
帰りの送迎までの時間も待つことなくスムーズでした。
基本的に英語でしたが、分かりやすく話してくれるのでどなたでも大丈夫かと思います。
とても楽しかったので、またやりたいです。
In June, I participated in this tour. When I first tried snorkeling, I struggled and couldn't really see much underwater, which was a disaster. So, I really hesitated about joining this time, but after reading other people's experiences, I decided to go for it.
As a result, I received really kind and thorough instruction from Chieko and Dan, and I am truly grateful to them. I was scared to even put my face in the water and thought I might not be able to do it, but Dan told me to breathe slowly and relax, holding my hand tightly. Then, the tour with six people started! Chieko took over and guided us, swimming while holding our hands. Gradually, my fear disappeared, and when we spotted fish, Chieko would call out and even tell us their names, which made me very happy.
Since the rocks are very close, I recommend borrowing a wetsuit. It helps those who are not very good at swimming to float more easily and prevents injuries. The snorkel I borrowed here ensures that as long as you can breathe through your mouth, no water will come in, so for those who are anxious like me or not confident in swimming, you can definitely participate. If I could do it, anyone can... haha.
Swimming for almost an hour can be quite tiring, but seeing the fish makes all the fatigue disappear. If you want to get out, they will take you back to shore.
Lastly, there can be some seasickness, so I think it's a good idea for those prone to motion sickness to take medication beforehand. Thank you so much, Chieko, for holding my hand and swimming with me until the very end. I had the experience of swimming with fish in the ocean for the first time. I am grateful.
6月、このツアーに参加させていただきました。初めてシュノーケルした時は、上手く出来ずろくに海の中を見る余裕もなく最悪だったので今回参加するにあたって本当に悩みましたが他の方の体験談を読み思い切って参加させていただきました。
結果、本当に親切丁寧に教えてくださってチエコさんダンさんには本当にお世話になりました。顔をつけるところから怖くて無理かなあ?と思っていたところ、ダンさんがゆっくり息をしてください。力抜いてくださいと言って手をしっかり握ってくださいました。そして、6名でのツアースタート!チエコさんに交代してみんなの後をしっかり手をひっぱって泳いでくれました。だんだん怖さもなくなり、魚をみつけてはチエコさんが声をかけてくださって、お魚の名前も教えてくれたり、うれしかったです。岩がとっても近いのでウエットスーツを借りることをおすすめします。泳ぎがあまり得意でない方は浮きやすくなりますし、ケガ防止にもなります。こちらでお借りしたシュノーケルは呼吸さえ口で出来れば絶対に水が入ってくることはありませんので、私のように不安のある方、泳ぎが得意でない方、参加を迷われてる方、大丈夫です。私でもできましたから。。。。笑
1時間近く泳ぎっぱなしでかなり疲れますがお魚さんを見たら疲れも吹っ飛びますよ。上がりたくなれば沖まで連れて行ってくれます。
最後に波酔いがありますので、船酔いしやすい方は薬を飲んでいくといいと思います。
本当にチエコさん最後の最後まで手を引っ張って泳いで下さりありがとうございました。はじめて海の中をお魚さんと一緒に泳げるという体験をさせていただきました。感謝しています。
Candy, thank you for joining our tour! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it!! Snorkeling is an activity that anyone can enjoy as long as you breathe calmly through your mouth. It really depends on your enthusiasm to give it a try! (laughs) In our tour, we use dry snorkels, so it's less likely for water to enter your mouth, making it perfect for beginners. Please do consider joining us again when you come back to Hawaii.
Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
キャンディ様、この度は私達のツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。楽しんでいただけたようで良かったです!!シュノーケリングは落ち着いてゆっくりお口からだけの呼吸をしていただければ、どなたでも楽しんでいただけるアクティビティです。後はやってみよう!と思うご本人様の意気込みでしょうかね(笑)私達のツアーではドライシュノーケルを使いますので、お口に水も入りにくく、初めての方でもきっと大丈夫ですよ。是非またハワイにお越しの際にはリピートしてくださいね。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
I participated alone, and when I actually gathered with others, there was only one other Japanese person, which made me a bit anxious. However, I managed with my very limited English. Once they realized I couldn't speak English, they responded in broken Japanese, so I could somewhat understand what they were saying.
Watching the parachutes flying from the boat, I was worried because they went much higher and farther than I expected. I thought, "Isn't this really scary? Can I handle it?" But when I actually experienced it, the feeling of exhilaration outweighed the fear. We were blessed with great weather, so the scenery was amazing!
However, while waiting my turn on the battlefield, I had to stay on a fast-moving, turning boat, so motion sickness medication is a must. In fact, I found that part to be scarier (laughs). But even with that fear, it became a great memory. If you stay at a designated hotel, they will pick you up and drop you off right in front of the hotel, so it's reassuring even if you don't have your own transportation. The crew and the drivers were all really nice, and if I have the chance to come to Hawaii again, I would love to do it again!
一人で参加、実際集合してみたら日本人も一人だけ、という状態だったので不安でしたが、私の片言すぎる英語でもなんとかなりました。
英語が話せないんだな、ということがわかると、あちらも片言の日本語で対応してくれるので、言われていることはなんとなくわかります。
ボートの上から飛んでいくパラシュートをみていると、予想以上に高く遠く上がるのでこれめちゃくちゃ怖くないか?耐えられるか??と船上で不安になっていましたが、実際体験すると、怖さよりも気持ち良さの方が上です。天気に恵まれたので、景色も最高でした!
ただ、戦場で順番を待っている時、高速で走り、旋回するボートの上にいないとならないので、酔い止めは必須です。むしろ私はこちらの方が怖かった(笑)
でも、その怖さを含めていい思い出になりました。指定ホテルに泊まっていれば、ホテルの前まで送り迎えしてくれるので、足がなくても安心です。クルーや送迎の運転手さんもみなさんいい方達で、今度ハワイにくる時があったらまたやりたいです!
A special thanks goes out to Captain Amy and her crew.
A big shout out to Coreen (I hope I spelled correct), my 7 year old daughter freaked out when she hit the water so the wife and my 5 year old son went on, after my son was done holding onto me I took him back to the boat it was at that time that another of the crew members had a baby octopus and my son freaked so back on the boat he goes, but the good part was Corren had my 7 year old daughter with aspergers in the water and ready to swim over to us, when she saw the turtles and fish she freaked so back to the boat she goes, but it was truly amazing and we will do it again. Then a great sail to cap off the amazing snorkeling adventure
I participated in a group lesson at Waikiki Beach, and it was enjoyable without being overcrowded. Sunscreen for your calves is essential for the afternoon lessons.
ワイキキビーチのグループレッスンに参加しましたが、人数も多すぎることなく楽しめました。午後のレッスンは特にふくらはぎの日焼け止めは必須です。
After being picked up, I signed a waiver in the car. The driver didn't seem to understand Japanese, but since the waiver was in Japanese, there were no issues. It took about 10 minutes by car from the Ala Moana Hotel to arrive. We joined three groups that had arrived earlier, and we quickly boarded the boat while still carrying our luggage. Out of the three groups, two were Japanese and one was from overseas. There are no lockers on the boat, but I don't think it's a concern.
About 10 minutes after departure, we arrived at the parasailing point, where each group was fitted with harnesses to start parasailing. I don't think the instructors understood Japanese, but they explained the essentials in Japanese, so there was no inconvenience due to the language barrier. Before taking off, they asked in Japanese whether we wanted to purchase photos or do a "japon" (splash). Some people chose to buy photos, but no one opted for the "japon." Even without doing the "japon," they skillfully controlled the experience so that our feet could dip into the water.
I chose the 150-meter option, but since we were above water, I didn't feel any fear of heights, and the weather was great, allowing us to enjoy the stunning views. When getting off the boat, they managed it well, making it easy to disembark. Those waiting on the boat welcomed us with applause, and the instructors helped create a lively atmosphere.
Although I chose the 150-meter option, I couldn't compare it to other heights, so I might not have felt much difference in height. The instructors didn't provide any explanations about the height either. If you don't do the "japon," you generally won't get wet, but there might be splashes while moving on the boat, so it might be a good idea to prepare a towel if you're concerned.
Before disembarking, we paid tips. We each paid $10. After the tour, they took us back to the hotel where we were picked up. We participated in the 8 AM start and were back at the hotel around 9:30 AM, making it easy to plan our next activities. I also changed the pickup location specified at the time of booking through VELTRA customer service. I inquired in Japanese via email, and they responded promptly, which was great. Thank you very much.
ピックアックしてもらったら車内で誓約書にサインします。ドライバーさんは日本語は通じなさそうでしたが誓約書も日本語ですし問題ありませんでした。
アラモアナホテルから車で10分くらいで到着です。先に到着されていた3組の方々と合流し、荷物は持ったまま早速乗船します。3組の方の内2組は日本人で1組は海外の方でした。船にロッカーはないですが心配ないと思います。
出航して10分くらいでパラセイリングのポイントに到着し、そこから各組みごとにハーネスを着けてもらいパラセイリングスタートです。インストラクターの方にも日本語は通じないと思いますが最低限のことはちゃんと日本語で説明してくれますし、日本語が通じなくて不自由することもまったくありませんでした。
飛び立つ前に写真を購入するかジャポンするか日本語で聞いてくれます。写真を購入する方はいましたがジャポンする方はいませんでした。ジャポンしなくても足だけ水につかるように上手くコントロールしてくれたりもします。
150メートルを選択しましたが水上なので高い場所にいるという恐怖感はなく、天気も良かったので最高の景色が楽しめました。船に降りるときも上手くコントロールしてくれ簡単に降りられます。船上で待っていた方も拍手で迎えていただきインストラクター含めて盛り上げてくれます。
150メートルを選択しましたが他の高さと比較ができないので高さによる違いはあまり体感できないかも知れないです。インストラクターからも高さについての説明はありませんでした。
ジャポンしなければ基本的に水に濡れることはないですが船で移動中に水しぶきがかかるので気になるかたはタオルなど準備した方がいいかもしれません。
降船前にチップを払い終了です。私たちは1人10ドル払いました。
終了後はすぐにピックアップしたホテルに送ってくれます。8時スタートに参加して9時半頃にはホテルにいるのでその後の予定も立てやすくおすすめのツアーです。
また予約時に指定されたピックアップ場所をVELTRAカスタマーサービスを通じて変更してもらいました。メールで日本語による問い合わせでしたが早急に対応していただきこの点も良かったです。ありがとうございました。
I was able to quickly ascend to the sky and enjoy the best views! Since the water only reached my shins, I didn't need to change clothes, and it wasn't physically demanding, so it was easy! Since it's over the ocean, it's not scary at all, and I think even those with a fear of heights can manage it. However, the weather in Hawaii can change quickly, so it's better to have something to wear, and since you'll be on the boat while others are taking their turns, I recommend taking motion sickness medication. Haha! In any case, the scenery is amazing, and if you bring a camera, you can take pictures up there, making for great memories!
上空まで一気に上がり、最高の景色が楽しめました!
膝下が濡れる程度なので、特別着替えもいらないし、体力使うわけでもないので楽でした!
下が海なので、全然怖くないし、高所恐怖症の人でもいけると思います。
ただ、ハワイは天気が変わりやすいので、羽織る物があった方がいいのと、他の人がしてる間は船の上なので、酔い止め飲んでる方がおすすめです。笑
なんにせよ景色は最高で、カメラ持っていけば上で写真もとっていいので良い思い出になります!
The driver for the pickup was English-speaking and very friendly, making the ride enjoyable. Once we arrived at the port, there was a female staff member who spoke Japanese, which was reassuring. Parasailing was incredibly refreshing! The captain of the boat was very skilled at maneuvering, and the crew took many wonderful photos with great creativity. The photos are available for an additional fee, but I think $30 for the SD card is quite reasonable. There are no changing facilities, so you'll have to return wet, so it's best to bring a towel to cover the car seat.
送迎のドライバーさんは英語ですがすごく気さくに話し掛けてくれて楽しい車内となりました。
港についてからは日本語の話せる女性スタッフが1名いて安心できました。
パラセイリングはすっっごく気持ちがいい!
船のキャプテンは操縦がとても上手だし、クルーは工夫溢れるとても素敵な写真をたくさん撮ってくれます。
こちらの写真は別料金となりますが、30ドルでSDカードごと頂けるのでだいぶ良心的なお値段だと思います。
着替える場所がないので帰りは濡れたまま帰ることとなります、車の座席にひけるバスタオルを持参するとベストです。
We participated as a couple in our 20s. Since we were staying at a hotel near the boat departure point, we walked there in our swimsuits. This time, we chose the 120-meter option. First, we received an explanation from a staff member who spoke Japanese before boarding the boat that came to pick us up. The crew seemed very accustomed to Japanese people, even making jokes in Japanese. Thanks to that, we had a great time during the transfer and while others were flying. Additionally, if you wish, they will take photos with a camera. You can check the content, and if you like it, they will sell you an SD card. We had nearly 70 photos taken. Since the boat was rocking, some photos were slightly out of focus, but we decided to purchase them right away! By the way, my wife has a fear of heights, but she said it was less scary than she expected and she had fun.
20代の夫婦で参加しました。
船の出発場所近くのホテルに宿泊していたためホテルから水着を着て歩いて向かいました。
今回は120メートルを選択。
まずは日本語の分かるスタッフの方の説明を受けて迎えに来た船に乗ります。
船のクルーは日本語でジョークを言ってくるぐらい日本人慣れしている感じでした。
おかげで移動中や他の人が飛んでいる間も楽しく過ごせます。
また、希望すればカメラで写真を撮ってくれます。内容を確認して気に入ればSDカードを販売してくれます。
70枚近く写真を撮ってもらいました。
揺れている船なのでピントの合っていない写真も少しありますが我々はすぐに購入を決めました!
ちなみに嫁は高所恐怖症ですが思っていたより怖さはなく楽しかったそうです。
We participated as a couple. After arriving in Hawaii, we struggled with the time difference and contacted them to see if we could change our schedule from morning to afternoon. Fortunately, we were able to move it to the following afternoon. They were flexible and accommodating, which we greatly appreciated.
Upon meeting Chieko, whose reliable yet gentle demeanor put us at ease, we were able to express our concerns right away, and she was very considerate throughout. After joining Dan and a family from Seattle, we received excellent support and were able to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind.
We were thrilled to see a honu and even downloaded photos from Facebook. I took motion sickness medication, but my husband ended up feeling seasick, and I apologize for any concern that caused. However, we had a wonderful time! Thank you!
夫婦で参加しました。
ハワイ到着後、時差に身体がなじめず、午前から午後へ変更できればと連絡したところ、翌日の午後へ変更いただくことができました。
ちょうど空きがあったとのことでしたが、柔軟に対応いただき、大変ありがたかったです。
チエコさんの頼もしくも優しい雰囲気に、お会いしてすぐ心配な点をお伝えすることができ、いろいろとお気遣いいただきました。
ダンさんと、シアトルからのファミリーと合流した後は、手厚いフォローでシュノーケリングを安心して楽しむことができました。
ホヌにも会えて、Facebookから写真もダウンロードできて、嬉しかったです。
酔い止めを飲んでいましたが、主人が波酔いしてしまい、ご心配をおかけしました。
でも、とても楽しめました!
ありがとうございます!
Dear TAKA, thank you for joining the tour with Blue Hawaii Divers. From the moment we first met, I noticed that your husband seemed unwell, so I was wondering if you would be able to go snorkeling. Please do join us again next time when you are both feeling better. We are always here to welcome you. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
TAKA様、この度はブルーハワイダイバースのツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。最初にお会いした時からご主人様は具合がまだ悪いご様子でしたので、シュノーケリングができるのかしらと思っておりました。是非次回は体調が良い時にまたお二人でご参加くださいね。いつでもお待ちしております。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
This adventure was more than what we expected. We first boarded a boat that took us out to the submarine. We entered a small port hatch that lowered us into a surprisingly large submarine that held over 63 individuals. We dove to a depth of over 112 feet and saw all manor of marine life around sunken ships and airplanes. We experienced fish and sea turtles nestled among the wreckage along with eels along the coral. To say this was a unique experience was an understatement. How often do you get to go 100+ feet under water and see marine life in their natural inhabitant?
This is my second time using the service. I was late for the pickup, so I went directly to the meeting point, but thank you for accommodating me by switching to the 12 o'clock boat. The weather and the wind were perfect, and it became a really fun memory! I also enjoyed the promised "dobon" (splash) twice, which was a lot of fun!
2回目の利用です。
ピックアップに遅れてしまい
集合場所に直接向かいましたが、
12時発のボートに振り替えて対応してくれてありがとうございました。
天気も風も最高でとっても楽しい思い出になりました!
お約束のドボンも二回もしてもらって楽しかったです!
It was unfortunately rainy and very windy, but I flew 150 meters! The guide was very friendly and provided a lot of laughs!
150 meters was surprisingly high, and I really got to experience the feeling of being a bird!
Next time, I hope for sunny weather and definitely want to challenge myself again!
あいにくの雨と強風でしたが150m飛んで来ました。ガイドさんがとても気さくな方で沢山笑いを提供してくれました!
150mは思いの外高く、鳥の気分をしっかり味わえます!
次は晴れることを願って、是非また挑戦したいと思います!
This was the BEST experience I’ve had. I feel the reason my husband and I could enjoy this experience was down to the crew. Safety was an absolute given, with our life vests fitted before we left the harbour. We were out at ease with humorous banter and a super friendly atmosphere.
I like this event so much...I went back for a second time.
The scenery of Waikiki from paragliding was spectacular, and the photos taken of us are going to be treasured for a life time.
Since it was my first time doing marine sports abroad, I was a bit anxious about how it would go. However, the email guidance after my application was very thorough, and I was able to reach the pickup location without any confusion. Once on the boat, they provided instructions in Japanese, and I was able to fly through the air without any issues! I booked for 130 meters, but I wish I could have experienced 150 meters as well.
初めてのマリンスポーツでかつ海外だったのでどうなる事かと思いましたが、申込み後のメール案内も丁寧で迷う事なくピックアップ場所にたどり着けました。船に乗り込むと日本語でも案内してくれますし、問題なく空を飛ぶ事ができました!130mで予約しましたが、150mも体験したみたいと思いました。
It was a bit scary, but when I flew high in the sky, I could see Diamond Head and the hotels of Waikiki beautifully! The ocean was a deep blue, and although I couldn't see the sea creatures, it felt amazing being blown by the wind! To have a fun experience, make sure to take motion sickness medication before you give it a try!
ちょっと怖かったけど、空高く飛ぶと、ダイアモンドヘッドやワイキキのホテル街が綺麗に見えました!海は濃く青くDeep Blue で海の生き物たちは、見えませんでしたが、風に吹かれて最高!でした。楽しく体験するために、絶対酔い止めを飲んでからチャレンジしてみてください!
It was drizzling, but the shuttle bus arrived on time and took us to the departure point. After waiting for about 30 minutes at the port, we set off with two crew members and four fellow passengers.
The boat accelerates and turns at a high speed, shaking like an amusement park ride!
Once we took off, the feeling of floating and the refreshing breeze were delightful, and we had a great view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head. When returning to the boat, I was surprised by the crew as I was momentarily dropped into the water. (laughs)
It was a highlight of my trip to Hawaii and I had a lot of fun!
Also, after returning to the port, you can purchase an SD card with about 60 images taken by the crew for $30.
小雨が降る中でしたが、定刻に送迎バスが来て出航場所まで移動しました。
港で30分程待った後に、クルー2人、同行客4人と共に出発。
船は猛スピードで加速や旋回をするので、遊園地のアトラクション並みに揺れます!
いざ、飛び立つと、ふわふわとした浮遊感と爽やかな風が気持ちよく、ワイキキビーチとダイアモンドヘッドが一望できました。
船に戻る際、クルーのサプライズで海の中に一瞬落とされました。笑
ハワイ旅行のハイライトとなり、とても楽しかったです!
また、帰港後はクルーが撮影した画像60枚程が入ったSDカードを30ドルで購入出来ます。
This is my youngest son's first trip to Hawaii. He asked to go snorkling. So I thought it would be even more fun to snorkle with turtles. And so we did. We had such an amazing experience, staffs were very nice and helpful. It was fun to see many turtles and fishes. We had so much fun. And at the end of our Hawaii trip, I asked my son, which one was the most memorable one of all the places we went to in Hawaii, and he said snorkling with turtles!!!
We participated as a family of six. Both of my son's couples were very happy, and the weather was nice, so we had a wonderful time.
家族6人で参加しました。息子夫婦(2組)もとても喜んでくれて
天気も良かったの大変いい時間を過ごしました。
We participated for the first time as a family of three generations: parents, a couple, and children. Although we had reserved Golden Circle seats, it seems we were shown to regular seats. When it was time to eat, we were kept waiting, which made us anxious, so we asked, and it turned out we were not in the Golden Circle seats (the ray was cast over everyone).
In a hurry, we were finally guided to the actual Golden Circle seats, but the buffet had a long line. In the end, we ended up getting our food last, which was very disappointing. It seemed that we were supposed to receive select drink tickets at the beginning, but we were not given those tickets, so our drink orders were also delayed.
I had high hopes for this commemorative trip with my parents, but our enjoyment was halved. The show itself was entirely in English, but we were able to enjoy the atmosphere.
両親、夫婦、子供3世代で初めて参加しました。ゴールデンサークルを予約していたものの、案内されたのは普通の席だったようです。
食事を取る時に、待たされての案内だったので、不安になって聞いてみると、ゴールデンサークルの席ではないとの事。(レイは全員にかけられました。)
慌てて本来のゴールデンサークル席に案内されたものの、ビュッフェは長蛇の列。結局最後の方に食事を取るような形で大変残念でした。
セレクトドリンクのチケットも最初にもらえるようでしたが、そのチケットも渡されていなかったので、ドリンクオーダーも遅くなりました。
両親を連れての記念旅行だったので期待していましたが、楽しみは半減しまた。ショー自体は全て英語でしたが、雰囲気は楽しめました。
This was an enjoyable trip just off the Waikiki coast, snorkeling was fruitful with my three teenage children as we saw many sea turtles and fish, while my wife enjoyed staying on the boat taking pictures of us in the water and of the surrounding views. Then we took a fun sail ride that gives you a great view of the Waikiki skyline and a full view of Diamond Head. The crew was great and were determined to ensure we had a great time. They were successful!
First, we boarded a boat from the dock near Hilton Hawaiian Village and headed offshore, where the views from the boat were excellent. There was a shop on board, so we didn't get bored. At the offshore point, we could see a submarine surfacing. The weather was calm on the day of our participation, and the view from inside the submarine was great. Thanks to our guide, who was fluent in Japanese, we had a wonderful time. While it might not be enough for those who are serious about scuba diving, I think it's a tour that can be enjoyed by everyone else.
まずはヒルトンハワイアンビレッジ近くの乗船場から船に乗り沖合へ行きますが、この船からの眺めが非常に良いです。船内にはショップがあり退屈しません。沖合のポイントでは潜水艦の浮上を見ることができます。参加当日は天気も穏やかで潜水艦内からの眺めも良く、また日本語が流暢なガイドさんのおかげで楽しく過ごせました。本格的にスキューバダイビングをする人には物足りないかもしれませんが、そうでなければ十分楽しめるツアーだと思います。
When my friends decided to go to the place where the turtles are, I ended up feeling unwell and had to return to the beach. However, the guide handled everything smoothly, and my friend was able to avoid getting sick. I feel really sorry for causing trouble to everyone, but I am truly grateful to the guide. Thank you for the enjoyable time.
友達が亀がいる場所にさあ行くぞ!っとなった時に体調が悪くなってしまい砂浜に戻ることになってしまいましたが、段取りよく対処してくださり友達もリバースを免れました。ただ皆に迷惑をかけてしまって申し訳なさいっぱいですが、ガイドさんについては本当に感謝の気持ちいっぱいです。楽しい時間をありがとうございました。
Chiro, thank you for joining the tour with your friend. The tide was low that day, and the water was clear, so we enjoyed a leisurely fish-watching experience in the shallow waters. The schools of striped surgeonfish were beautiful, weren't they? Recently, turtles haven't been coming into the inside area, so we have to search further out, but your friend got seasick along the way. I'm really sorry for making you swim so much. Next time, please take some motion sickness medication beforehand, and let's go on a turtle search for a rematch! I'm looking forward to seeing you again. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
チロさん、この度はお友達とお二人でツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。この日は引き潮でお水も綺麗でしたから、浅瀬をずーっとゆっくりお魚ウォッチングな感じでした。シマハギの群れが綺麗でしたね。最近はインサイドには亀が入ってきてくれないので沖まで探しに行くのですが、お友達は途中で波酔いしてしまったんですよね。いっぱい泳がせてしまってゴメンなさい。是非次回は事前に酔い止めを飲んできていただいて、リベンジで亀を探しに行きましょう!!またお会いできるのを楽しみに待っております。本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
Communication in Japanese was somewhat possible, and the shuttle service was without issues. There were only three groups during our time, so we finished smoothly with almost no waiting time! However, I wish the flying time had been a bit longer... (^_^;) Still, we enjoyed it thoroughly!
日本語も多少は通じて送迎も問題なし、私たちの時は3組だったのですが待ち時間もほとんどなくスムーズに終わりました!
ただ、もう少し飛ぶ時間が長かったら良かったかな…と(^_^;)
それでも十分に楽しめました!
My daughters and I had a great time . Both Dan & his wife explained everything and were very patient. I would recommend to anyone . Would definitely book them again.
Thanks Fatima, you guys all did great! Dan and Chieko.
