Waikiki
Everything about the tour was great, especially the driver Larry. Enjoyed the bus ride as much as pearl harbor.
It was my mother's first time in Hawaii. When it comes to Hawaiian experiences, a submarine tour is a must! It was lucky that it was a bit cheaper. My mother seemed very satisfied to experience the essence of Hawaii.
母親にとっては初めてのハワイ。
ハワイらしい体験といえば、潜水艦!!
少しお安くなっていたのはラッキーでした。
母もハワイらしさを体験できて大満足の様子でした。
The trip was nice with friendly staff and foods/drinks included.
The ride was a little rough out side, beautiful sunset.
We saw sea turtle.
I participated with my mother, who can't swim. It seems she had heard from my grandmother that the submarine tour in Hawaii was great, so we decided to give it a try. We enjoyed the trolley ride to the pickup point, and the cruise to the submarine had beautiful scenery, which was nice. The submarine was a bit less impressive than I expected; the water looked murky and there weren't many fish. However, we did see a sea turtle, which was enjoyable. It would be better if the price were a little lower.
泳げない母と参加。母が祖母からハワイの潜水艦ツアーが良かったと何度も聞いていたようで、参加してみることにしました。お迎えのトロリーから楽しめて、潜水艦までの船でのクルーズも景色良くてよかったです。潜水艦は期待していたよりかは、水が濁ってみえるのと魚も少なかったかなーという印象でした。でもウミガメもみれたし楽しめました。お値段がもう少し安いといいのだけど。
Parasailing was my first experience, and since I don't understand English, I was quite worried, but I'm glad I tried it!! I was concerned about getting injured and what would happen if I couldn't understand the instructions, but they explained everything with gestures, and there weren't any difficult steps to follow. The anxiety was only before taking off, but once I was in the air, I was overwhelmed by the beauty of the ocean. While flying, it just felt amazing.
The photo service was $30, and they took over 100 pictures. I brought a waterproof digital camera (hanging around my neck), so I was able to take photos from the sky (the flight was stable enough), but I couldn't take pictures of myself, so it was great to have them taken for wonderful memories.
There was a bit of trouble with the pickup car being late, but the hotel front desk contacted them, and everything worked out. It was just Hawaiian time, I guess (laughs).
パラセイリングは初めて、英語もわからないので、かなり悩みましたが
やってみて良かった!!
怪我しないかな…、
説明が聞き取れなかったらどうしよう…と心配していましたが
身振り手振りで説明してもらえるし、そもそも難しい手順はありません。
不安なのは飛ぶまでで、いったん飛んでしまったら海の美しさに圧倒されてます。
飛んでいる間は、とにかく気持ちがいいです。
Photoサービスは30$で100枚以上撮ってもらえました。
防水のデジカメを(首からぶら下げて)持っていったので
空からの写真は撮れましたが(それほど飛行は安定しています)
自分の写真は撮れないので、撮ってもらって良い思い出になりました。
迎えの車が遅れるというトラブルがありましたが、
ホテルのフロントから連絡を入れてもらって事なきを得ました。
そこはハワイタイムということで(笑)
It was such a lot of fun. Russel and Kevin were excellent professionals and really made us feel safe with their knowledge and skill. We really enjoyed the whole excursion from start to finish. The boat handled the windy and choppy conditions very comfortably. Para-sailing about 600 ft. above the ocean off Waikiki harbour was so quiet and exhilarating.
I thought the children might be scared, but surprisingly they were quite happy. The people who rode with us were very kind, and the children became attached to them. If there's a chance, maybe next time too?!
子供が怖がるかなとも思ったが意外と喜んでました。同乗した方々が非常にやさしく、子供もなついていました。機会があれば次回も?!
Great Service. Drivers are friendly. Customer service center response quickly and patiently
I was a bit nervous since it was my first time, but I felt refreshed and had a great time. I experienced more seasickness than I expected, but the staff provided excellent support, which made me feel at ease.
初めてで少し緊張していましたが、気分爽快で楽しかったです。予想以上に船酔いしてしまいましたが、スタッフがしっかりフォローしてくれたので安心でした。
I made a last-minute reservation online the day before, but the process from booking to pickup to the actual paragliding was smooth, and I was able to enjoy it comfortably (≧∇≦). I'm very satisfied!
前日に現地で急遽ネットから予約しましたが、予約→ピックアップ→本番とスムーズで、快適にパラセイリングが出来ました(≧∇≦)大満足です!
Nice and professional crew, expectations were met completely. Had a great time on the line together with my girlfriend and a great view on Waikiki.
2 kids and dad together! What a blast! Will do this again!
There may be some language issues during the round trip from the yacht harbor to the point, but the captain's administrative response was not very exciting. The parasailing itself was truly wonderful. The shuttle bus driver did their best to cheer us up with broken Japanese. Of course, I doubled the tip.
ヨットハーバーからポイントまでの往復時は言葉の問題は多少あるかもしれませんがキャプテン等の事務的な対応はテンションがあがりませんでした。パラセイリング自体は大変すばらいものでした。シャトルバスのドライバーは片言の日本語で一生懸命盛り上げてくれました。チップはもちろん倍額させていただきました。
Last time, I rode on the smaller submarine, so this time I chose the larger one called the Premium Submarine. The size difference is quite significant, and it was impressive when it surfaced. The interior is spacious, and the large windows make it easy to see underwater. Entering involves descending a vertical ladder, which adds a bit of tension. The wreckage of ships and planes is mysterious.
前回一度小さな方の潜水艦に乗ったことがありましたので今回プレミアムサブマリンと言う大きな方を選択しました。大きさもかなり違い浮上して来る時は圧巻でした艦内も広く窓も大きいので水中が見やすいです。入る時は垂直の梯子で降りるので少し緊張感有ります、船や飛行機の残骸は神秘的です。
The scheduled date was canceled due to rough waves and was carried out the next day. I participated this time as a preview, thinking of joining with my grandchildren next time. I heard that the person who participated with me was doing this for the fifth time, and I joined with high expectations, but it turned out to be quite ordinary, which was a bit disappointing. I think it would be great if someone fluent in English could explain. I believe the person explaining should incorporate unique stories to make it even better. I think my grandchildren will have to give up next time due to language barriers.
予約した日程は、波が荒く中止で翌日に実行。次回、孫達と一緒にと思い、下見で今回参加しました。一緒に参加した人は今回で5回目だと聞き、期待度ピークで参加したら、余りにも普通で、期待外れでチョット残念。英語が堪能な方は最高だと思いました。説明する方がユニークな話を交えて最高だと思います。次回孫達は言葉の関係が有り断念せざるを得ないと思っています。
In a word, it was so much fun that I want to experience it again. We went up to a height of 150 meters, which was quite high, and the view was beautiful. They will burn the photos onto a CD for $30, and I think it's worth buying. We were worried about theft and didn't bring any money, but there were other Japanese groups there, so theft probably isn't a concern. Definitely give it a try!
一言で言うともう一度体験したいくらい楽しかったです。150mの高さにしたのですが結構高く景色も綺麗でした。写真を$30でCDに焼いてくれますが、これは買ったほうがいいと思います。私たちは盗難が怖くお金を持参しなかったのですが、他の日本人のグループの方もいて盗難とかはおそらく心配なさそです。是非体験してみてください、
Great driver and very knowledgeable. Helpful with helping everyone with their gear
Nice view!
I try Parasailing every year!
I will try parasailing at Hawaii parasailing next year!
This was my sixth trip to Hawaii, and I was invited by my daughter to visit Kualoa for the first time. After having a fun conversation with the pickup staff, we arrived after about an hour on the bus. We participated in the location tour, a jeep tour, and a Kaneohe Bay cruise. The location tour was just as I imagined, and it was quite noisy as we were with a group from a training trip in Japan. The jeep tour was more enjoyable than I expected. Our driver, Mr. Leonald, provided easy-to-understand explanations and offered great service by taking photos at the stopping points. The cruise felt a bit like a way to kill time, but the ocean was very beautiful. I think Kualoa is a place worth visiting at least once to enjoy the great nature.
ハワイ6度目にして、娘に誘われクアロアに始めて行きました。
ピックアップのスタッフと楽しく話しながら、バスに揺られて一時間程で到着しました。
ロケ地めぐりとジープツアー、カネオヘ湾クルーズに参加しました。
ロケ地めぐりは想像通りで、日本の研修旅行の団体と一緒になって、うるさかったです。
ジープツアーが思った以上に楽しかったです。ドライバーのMr.Leonaldの説明が分かり易く、途中の停車ポイントでも写真を撮ってくれたりサービス満点でした。
クルーズは時間つぶしの感がありましたが、海がとても綺麗でした。
クアロアの大自然を満喫して一度は行っても良い場所だと思いました。
I participated in the 120m early morning activity.
There were three groups, but all were Japanese!!
It was reassuring.
Since I had read the reviews thoroughly, I immediately recognized that the welcoming bus was driven by Yano-san, and I enjoyed the ride while chatting in broken Japanese.
After the first group finished, when I put on the equipment and soared into the sky, the boat became smaller and smaller, and I found myself in a quiet world.
I had a fantastic view of Diamond Head and the city of Waikiki; it was over in no time.
Even my companion, who is supposed to have a fear of heights, seemed to be having fun.
I didn't make any requests, and in the end, all groups were dunked into the sea up to their waists...
Getting soaked became one of my memories of Hawaii, so I was glad about that.
The waiting time on the cruiser was also enjoyable with the refreshing breeze.
For some reason, I was asked whether I wanted to take photos after the first group had flown, so it felt a bit unfortunate for those who had already taken off and weren't asked.
The response in that regard felt a bit casual.
The photos were saved on an SD card, and it was about $30 for around 70 pictures, but some were blurry or questionable, so compared to reviews mentioning over 100 photos, it felt a bit pricey. It seemed like the person taking the photos was a newcomer?
However, since I didn't bring a camera, I decided to buy them, thinking of it as a tourist price, and in the end, I think it was a good choice. The quality was great since it was a DSLR.
By the way, we left a $10 tip for the two of us.
The reception staff were also good at broken Japanese!
You don't need to worry if you can't speak English.
I definitely recommend this to anyone struggling with activities in Hawaii!!
(I gave it four stars because there was a bit of a gap in the response between Yano-san and the boat captains. This might be typical in Hawaii, though...)
早朝の120mに参加しました。
三組の参加でしたが、全組日本人!!
安心感もありました。
レビューを熟読していたので、お迎えのバスはヤノさんだと一目でわかり、道中はカタコトの日本語で楽しませて頂きました。
一組目がおわり、いざ、装置をつけて空に舞い上がってみると
ボートがどんどん小さくなり静かな世界。
ダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの街が一望でき、素晴らしい眺めで、あっという間でした。
一緒に行った相手も高所恐怖症のはずが、
楽しそうにしていました。
あえて何もリクエストしなかったら、最後は全組腰の位置までじゃぶんと海に落とされましたが…
びしょ濡れになったのもまた、ハワイの思い出のひとつになってよかったです。
待ち時間のクルーザーも風が気持ちよくて楽しかったですよ~
写真はなぜか、一組目が飛んでから撮るかどうか聞かれたので、既に飛び立っていて聞かれなかった方が少し可哀想でした。
その辺り対応は適当な感じでした。
写真はSDカードに入れてくれて、30ドルで70枚くらいでしたが、ぶれてたり、ん?というものもあったので、100枚以上撮ってくれたレビューを見てしまうと少し割高な感じ。撮っていたのもレクチヤーされてたので新人さん?の様でした。
でもカメラを持っていかなかったので、観光地価格だと思い割りきって買いましたが結果よかったかなと思っています。一眼レフなので、画質はバッチリでした。
因みにチップは二人で10ドル置いてきました。
受付のお姉さん方も、カタコトですが日本語上手でしたよー!
英語喋れなくても大丈夫です。
ハワイのアクティビティに悩んでる方には是非オススメしたいです!!
(ヤノさんと、ボートのキャプテン達の対応に少し落差があったので、星4つにしました。ハワイではこんなものかもしれませんが…)
wow! Cannot even describe the experience we had.... I really wanted my mother to enjoy this the most and it was great! Although she could not make the hike (because of knee surgery) she had a blast and patiently waited for me to tour and get the pictures for her to cherish.... The hike is a challenge for people with balance issuees, walking, and stairs!!!!! When you climb, you climb but overall we had a perfect and safe trip to this landmark that will be cherished!!!!
I was able to see the scenery I saw in the movie.
There was an explanation in Japanese, so it was easy to understand.
I was able to return in the evening, so I could schedule something else for the night.
映画で見た景色を見ることができました。
日本語の説明があったので、わかりやすかったです。
夕方には帰ってこれたので、夜に別の予定も入れられました。
A great day to snorkel. The drivers were well informed and explained everything we needed to know. They even were very knowledgable during to drive to and from the bay. Definately recommend this tour.
It was my first time surfing!!! I had so much fun!!!
Aloha,
We are so happy you had a great time! We loved surfing with you and we can't wait to see you some day soon!
Mahalo!
Actually, my wife teaches hula in Japan, so I am quite familiar with it. However, since my wife's sister was visiting Hawaii for the first time, we decided to take her to see a hula and Hawaiian show on the terrace of the Hilton Hotel. The show included Tahitian dance and some slightly arranged hula, and if you view it as a show, it was enjoyable enough. The food was standard and didn't change much, and it seemed that the seating didn't matter too much, so we were glad we got the standard tickets!
実は妻が日本でフラの教室をしていますので、私もかなりフラに関しては馴染み深いのですが、妻の姉が今回初ハワイでしたので、ショー形式のフラ・ハワイアンショーをヒルトンホテルの中階層のテラスで見せてあげようと出かけてきました。タヒチアンあり、多少アレンジされたフラが有り、ショーとして割り切って見ればそれなりに楽しめるショーでした。食事の内容はスタンダードも変わりませんし、席もあまり関係ないようですので、スタンダードチケットで私達はかえってよかったね!と、思った位でした。
What a great way to spend the morning. Was with our family of 7 so had the boat to ourselves. The guides were a blast and played great music. Told us specifically how to load into the harnesses and "fly". Our 10 minutes were so peaceful, got dunked 2x (which was an added bonus). Just wish parking instructions were a bit clearer but that was the phone's fault, ended up walking all the way around the pier. What a great memory. The guide took great pictures and was totally worth the $30.00!
From the hotel pickup to the boat, Japanese was hardly understood, but the staff spoke broken Japanese regarding safety. Not being able to communicate in Japanese is part of the fun of traveling, and it was really great. I think it was also a stimulating experience for my middle school children. My 13-year-old daughter was scared at first, but it seems she enjoyed the beautiful scenery.
ホテルピックアップから船上まで、日本語は殆んど通じなかったけど、
安全に関する所だけは、スタッフがカタコトの日本語で話してくれました。
日本語が通じないのも、旅の楽しみだし、とっても良かったです。
中学生の子供達にも刺激になったと思います。
13歳の娘も、始めは怖がっていたけど、景色もキレイで楽しめた様です。
Really good trip and got to see turtles up close, highly recommend
This is my several times visiting Hawaii. I usually do marine sports, but this time I participated in the Kualoa Tour for the first time. I wasn't expecting much, but I was overwhelmed by the magnificent nature. I was able to relax and take my time. My elementary school children also said they want to go again! Next time, I want to ride a horse.
何度目かのハワイ。いつもはマリンスポーツ系だったのですが、今回初めてクアロアツアーに参加。あんまり期待していなかった?のですが、壮大なる自然に圧倒。悠々として、時間ものんびりすごせました。小学生の子供たちもまた行きたい!と。今度は馬に乗りたいです
I experienced this with my 5-year-old son. My son, who loves Ultraman, was thrilled to be able to fly like Ultraman. He was a bit scared just before, but the moment we took off into the sky, he smiled.
We also received photos on an SD card, and although it was $30, they turned out great, and we were very satisfied.
I would like to experience this again.
5歳の息子と体験しました。ウルトラマン好きの息子は、ウルトラマンのように空を翔べると大喜び。直前は少し怖がったけど、空へ舞い上がったとたん、笑顔になりました。
写真もSDカードでもらえて、30ドルだったけど、よくとれていて、大満足です。
また体験したいです。
