Waikiki
Awesome crew!!! Made our boat ride enjoyable and our experience that much more exciting.
It was my first time parasailing in Hawaii. We were the only Japanese people there, and since we could only communicate in English, I only understood bits and pieces of what was being said, but it was fun even at 120 meters! In fact, there was no confirmation of how many meters we were going, so even if I paid for the 150-meter option, I might not have been able to tell the difference. I bought the photos for $30! Don't forget that tips are also necessary.
Hawaiiでは初めてのパラセーリング。
日本人は私たちだけで英語でしか通じないため、話してる内容はなんとなくしかわかりませんでしたが、120mでも楽しかったです!むしろ、何メートルですって確認はなかったので、150mの料金を払っても体感ではわからないかも。写真は30ドルで買いました!チップも必要ですので、忘れずに。
We participated as a family of three, including our 10-year-old daughter. It was our first experience, but there were friendly staff members who spoke Japanese, so we felt at ease enjoying the sky walk. While moving by boat, we were able to see sea turtles, and there was an option to have photos taken on an SD card for $30. Since our family wanted to ride together, we requested the photo service. After returning home and checking the card, we found about 80 beautiful pictures, including the scenery, and we were glad we made the request. Among the optional activities on this trip, it was the most enjoyable and affordable, so next time, I want to challenge the 150m option. I highly recommend this tour; you'll want to give a tip!
娘10歳を含めて家族三人で参加しまた。初体験でしたが日本語も話せる親切なスタックもいて安心して空の散歩を楽しむ事が出来ました。ボートで移動中にウミガメを見せて貰ったり、30ドルでSDカードに写真を撮って貰えるオプションが有ったので私達家族は三人同時に乗る為、撮影をお願いしました。帰国してカードを確認しましたが景色も含め、綺麗に80枚程入っておりお願いして良かったです。今回の旅行のオプショナルの中で安価なのに一番楽しかったので、次回は150mにチャレンジしたい思ってます。チップを渡したくなるおすすめツアーですよ。
It was fun and we had a good time. However, the boat ride was not good and we got really sick due to extreme motion. We were so afraid to throw up on the boat or when we were up in the sky!
This cruise was the perfect length for those with children. Wesaw a turtle and a pod of dolphins!!! Our family was very excited and loved the snorkeling!! Very reasonably priced for this experience
We had a fabulous time on our snorkel sail. Loved the convenience of being able to walk to the boat launch, and the crew (including check-in personnel) were warm and welcoming. We were elated and surprised to be greeted by a pod of spinner dolphin as we sailed out off of Waikiki -- an unusual sight! -- and my kids were thrilled to watch them racing the boat. The snorkeling itself was great...not a ton of different types of fish, but we saw a half-dozen sea turtles and a couple of eels (COMPLETELY worth the trip). Our guides even found a small octopus for us to ogle!
Free snacks (chips) are provided, and water, beer, soda, and cocktails are available to purchase. They snorkel and mask they provided us were good quality with no issues. (No fins though, so if you have your own set you might want to bring them.) Highly recommended! We will be repeating the experience the next time we are on Oahu.
I was exhausted, but it was a fun experience. I drank a lot of seawater, couldn't stand up while surfing, and got sunburned all over, but it felt like Hawaii!
くたくたに疲れたけど楽しい体験でした。海水いっぱい飲んだし、サーフィン立てなかったし、日焼けで真っ赤になったけどハワイ〜って感じ
I accidentally booked a tour with an English guide and was worried, but both the guide and the driver were kind, and I had a very enjoyable time. I went up to 90 meters, which was a sufficient height to get a beautiful view of Waikiki. Many people seemed to give a tip of $20 for two people.
間違って英語ガイドのツアーを予約してしまい不安でしたが、ガイドの方も運転手の方も優しく、とても楽しい時間を過ごせました。
90メートルにしましたが、十分な高さで、ワイキキの街が一望できとても綺麗でした。
チップは2人で20ドル渡されている方が多かったです。
The surfing itself was refreshing and enjoyable, but there was hardly any explanation, and it ended after just two waves in about 25 minutes. It felt a bit overpriced for such a brief experience.
波乗り自体は爽快で楽しいものでしたが、説明もほとんどなく2回波に乗って25分ほどで終わりました.呆気なく割高に感じました.
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. However, I sincerely apologize for not being able to provide a service that meets your expectations.
During the canoe surfing tour you participated in, our local staff strives to ensure that customers can ride the waves at least twice and enjoy the tour. Depending on the conditions of the day, it is possible to ride more than twice, but we determined that two rides were appropriate based on the conditions on that day. We will work with the operating company to improve the explanation of the tour on-site.
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience.

しかしながら、ご満足いただけるサービスを提供できませんでしたこと、心よりお詫び申し上げます。
ご参加いただきましたカヌー・サーフィンのツアーではお客様に最低でも2回は波に乗っていただき、ツアーをお楽しみいただけるよう現地スタッフがサービスに努めております。その日の状況次第で2回以上波に乗ることもございますが、当日の状態を見て2回までと判断させていただきました。現地でのツアー説明に関しましては、改善に向けて催行会社と努めてまいります。
お忙しい中、体験談のご投稿、誠にありがとうございました。

We went for a premium tour with a large submarine (65 seats). The windows are large but tinted and the view is therefore less clear. Aided by loads of sand that cannot settle by so many submarines' tours during each day, the visibility is really low. The tour includes views of two ship racks and some airplane racks that turned artificial coral reefs. All of this is on a sandy bottom and there is no fish in between the racks. So overall, very little is seen really on those tours. I fully support the decision not to disturb the natural reefs and fish habitats but I think that the tour is overpriced for what one can see on this tour.
The glass bottom boat was a great experience that didnt break the bank. The tour guides were friendly, casual, and knowledgeable. Definitely recommended for a chill day out on the water.
The school was great. We caught lots of waves and Adam was a great instructor.
The tour is very educational. We enjoyed it very much. Larry, our bus driver, made it exciting and entertaining. So I'd like to thank them for a great time!
This snorkeling experience was more than we bargained for. We will do this again and bring the rest of the family. What a wonderful way to spend our morning. We just loved it!!
Thanks guys, hope we see you again. Dan.
Our tour guide was awesome - very informative and entertaining tour. Pearl harbor was amazing, our only disappointment was that the navy wouldn't let us onto the Arizona memorial due to "high winds".
Highly recommended tour!
We had great time with our kids!!
Awesome! We have met sea turtles and my kids and nephews enjoyed very much.
And we had dancers and danced with a crew. lol
Thanks!
My son and his friends said this was one of their highlights, only second to renting scooters but they are just 21:). Thanks for making their time memorable!
The driver Patrick was nice and the tour in the city interesting. At pearl Harbor we were very disapointed cause the boat could not let us go on the arizona monument due to the wind !! That was our purpose to see it and the deception was high..
Even as a beginner, I was able to stand up on the board in just one try! The teaching method and guidance were so good that I was truly impressed. There was also a girl around 5 years old from the same school standing up next to me, and she was actually better than us! At the end, they gave us a CD-R with photos (for free), and they took quite a few pictures, which really increased my satisfaction!
初めてでも一回でたてる!教え方、押し方?が上手なのか初めてでも立てて感動しました。横では同じスクールの5歳くらい?の女の子も立てていました(^^)むしろ私たちより上手でした。
最後に写真をCD-Rをプレゼント(無料)してくれ結構たくさん写真撮ってて下さっていてさらに満足値があがりました!
My first parasailing experience! I was a bit scared by the height, but I enjoyed seeing Diamond Head and the beautiful ocean! ♡
初めてのパラセーリング!思った以上の高さにビビりながらも、ダイヤモンドヘッドが見えたり、海がキレイで楽しめました♡
The tour was very smooth, with no wasted time, and we had a great time. The kids were also thrilled and want to experience it again. The guide spoke English, but there were explanations written on paper in Japanese, which made it easy to understand.
ツアーはとてもスムーズで無駄な時間がなくすごく楽しめました。
また体験したいと子供達も大喜びでした。
ガイドは英語ですが、説明が書いた用紙には日本語で書かれたものがあり
分かりやすかったです。
I often stay at Hilton Hawaiian Village, but I had never seen a luau before and experienced it for the first time. The meal was a buffet with a variety of dishes, and it was delicious and filling. The luau show was also great.
There is a recommendation to arrive 10 minutes early, but it takes about 40 minutes from the start of admission to completion, and since it’s still sunny at that time, if you go too early, it can be hot and the wait time is long. I felt there was no need to rush.
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジにはよく泊まるのですが
ルアウは見たことがなく、初めて体験しました。
食事はビュッフェ形式でいろいろなメニューがあり
おいしくお腹いっぱいになりました。
ルアウショーも良かったです。
会場には10分前に来るように案内がありますが
入場を開始してから完了するまで40分ぐらいかかり、
まだ日も照っている時間なので早く行くと暑くて待ち時間が長いです。
急いで行く必要はないと思いました。
Team was great and super helpful and friendly! Loved the parasailing, we were up for nearly 10-15 minutes and it was great to see Oahu like this. Pickup and return was easy and efficient! Would do it again!
I invited my husband, who wasn't very enthusiastic, to join me, but it turned out to be much more enjoyable than we expected, and he said he would like to participate again. The guide couple was kind, and it was the right choice to select this tour from among many options.
あまり気乗りしない夫を誘って二人で参加したのですが、思っていたよりずっと楽しかったらしくまた参加したいと言っていました。ガイド夫妻が親切でたくさんあるなかからこのツアーを選んで正解でした。
Dear Lantana, thank you for choosing our tour among many options. I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed snorkeling at Hanauma Bay. It was great that you got to see sea turtles as well. Hanauma Bay truly has a variety of fish, and they don't tend to swim away, so you can observe them up close while swimming in the shallow waters, making it enjoyable no matter how many times you go. We always guide you along the best route for the day, so I hope you both will consider repeating your visit when you come back to Hawaii. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
ランタナ様、この度は数あるツアーの中から私達のツアーにお越しいただきましてありがとうございます。ハナウマ湾のシュノーケリングを楽しんでいただけたと聞き、とても嬉しく思います。ウミガメにも会えて良かったですね。ハナウマ湾は本当にいろんな種類のお魚さんがいて、しかもあまり逃げませんから浅瀬を泳ぐ時には目の前でお魚を観察できて何度泳いでも楽しい所です。いつもその日の最適なルートでご案内させていただきますので、是非またハワイにお越しの際にはお二人でリピートしていただければと思っております。本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
I signed up for a submarine tour since my friend couldn't go diving! It was really fun to see sea turtles and rays. Also, since the commentary was in Japanese during the time I booked, there were many Japanese people, and we didn't have any issues with manners. The person giving the commentary was also entertaining!
If I had to mention one thing, I chose the bus transfer from the hotel, but I noticed that one of the staff members, who I think was probably a part-timer, was chatting a lot with another staff member, which caught my attention. I thought, "Well, this is a foreign country, so maybe it's normal," but it was a little concerning. Other than that, I was very satisfied!
友達がダイビング出来ないため潜水艦ならと思い申し込みしました!ウミガメやエイなども見ることができとても楽しかったです。また、申し込んだ時間帯は日本語での解説だったため日本人も多くマナー等で困ることはありませんでした。解説してる人も面白かったです!
ただ一つ言うならばホテルからバスの送迎付きにしたのですが、スタッフの方が多分バイトの子だと思うのですが違うスタッフとお喋りばかりしていたのが気になりました。外国だしこんなもんかなーとは思いましたが、少し気になりました。それ以外はとても満足しました!
Thank you for boarding the Atlantis submarine and for your comments and photos. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed seeing sea turtles and rays.
We sincerely apologize for any discomfort caused by the excessive chatter among the staff during your transfer. Moving forward, all of our employees will earnestly strive to improve our service to ensure this does not happen again.
We look forward to welcoming you aboard again.

During our first fishing trip in Oahu, my son caught 3 fish and I caught 5, so we had a great time. The barbecue with the fish we caught was also delicious. It would be good to know a bit about the business as well.
オアフでの初の釣りながら、息子3匹、私5匹と釣れ十分楽しめました。また釣った魚のバーベキューも美味しかったです。営業は少しわかった方が良いですね。
We went on a hot day on our honeymoon. It was very interesting to hear about the history
I took the opportunity to participate with my child while my husband was out golfing. Since it was a three-person ride, we shared the experience with another family who was there at the same time to balance things out. If you happen to see this, I want to express my gratitude once again.
I chose a 120-meter ride since I was with my 6-year-old. There was a bit of wind, so my child was a little tense in the air, but I felt great and had a lot of fun! At the end, they gave us a little splash in the water, but it was a bit gentle, probably because my child was small, so I found it somewhat lacking (laughs). My child seemed to enjoy the return boat ride, which was super fast like a roller coaster (laughs).
The staff spoke to us in broken Japanese, which helped me, even though my English is not great. They also gave us the SD card with all the photos on our way back, and when I checked the data at home, there were so many images (including photos of Diamond Head), so I’m really glad I made the purchase!
主人がゴルフに行っている時間を利用して子供と2人で参加しました。三人乗りだったのでバランスをとるため一緒の時間に参加されていたご家族のご主人様に一緒に乗っていただきました。もしこれをご覧になっていたら改めてお礼を申し上げます。
6歳の子供と一緒だったので120メートルにしました。少し風があったので子供は上空で多少固まってましたが、私はとても気持ちよくて楽しかったです!最後ちょこっと水にドボンと落としてくれるのですが、子供が小さかったからか遠慮気味なドボンで私には物足りないくらいでした(笑)子供は帰りのボートの猛スピードがジェットコースターみたいで楽しかったみたいです(笑)
スタッフの方は片言の日本語混じりで色々お話をしてくださったので英語がダメな私でも何とかなりました。
写真も帰りにSDカードごとくださるのですが帰宅後にデータを見てみるとすごくたくさんの画像が入っており(ダイヤモンドヘッドの写真まで入ってました)購入して良かったです!
Great adventure for any age - my mom (81) and aunt (76) had a blast swinging 1,000 feet up taking in the breathtaking views of Oahu. Lots of fun with a dip or two into the Pacific Ocean before being brought back into the boat. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a different perspective of Hawaii and the beautiful blue ocean.
My husband and son participated. They said it was their first time surfing, and they had a lot of fun, even more than they expected. My husband said we definitely should do it, so next time, I would love for my daughter and me to join as well.
夫と息子が参加しました。
初めてのサーフィン、予想以上に乗れて
楽しかったと言ってました。
絶対やった方がいいと夫が言ってくれたので、
次回は私と娘も是非参加したいです。
