All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

It was absolutely amazing! I recommend taking photos and videos while you're riding. The breeze felt great, and there was no swaying at all. I want to ride again!

ちょー最高でした！
乗ってる時の写真や動画も撮ることをオススメします。
乗ってる間も風も気持ちよく揺れもなくもう一回乗りたいです

Seeing Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sky was amazing. Walking in the air with the wind was exhilarating, and I will definitely participate again next time.

空から見るワイキキ、ダイアモンドヘッド最高でした。
風をきっての空中の散歩、次回も絶対参加します。

My father really wanted to participate, so I was looking for an event that was accessible on foot from our accommodation, and I was able to find just the right one.

At first, I hesitated because the dinner package was a bit pricey, but I thought it would be a great memory for my father, so I booked a Golden Seat, even though I didn't go for the Diamond option.

Since seating is assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, I recommend lining up early. We were actually guided to the front row, where we could feel the heat of the flames and enjoy the show up close. It might have been a bit too close for taking commemorative photos, though...

I think my father was very satisfied and it became a wonderful memory for him.

父親が是非参加したいということで、宿泊地から徒歩でアクセス可能なイベントを探していたら、ちょうど見つけることが出来ました。

最初はディナー付きでもいい値段するなぁと躊躇してましたが、父親のいい思い出になるならということで、ダイヤモンドまではいきませんでしたがゴールデンシートで予約しました。

先着順で席に案内されるので、早めに並ぶ事をお勧めします。
実際は炎の熱さが伝わる最前列に案内され、迫力満点でかぶり付きでショーを見ることが出来ました。
記念の写真を撮るには少し近すぎたかもしれませんが…

父親も大満足でいい思い出になったと思います。

The pickup was about 20 minutes late, which made me anxious, but they apologized properly for the delay, which I appreciated.
Although they didn't speak Japanese, there was a Japanese instruction manual, so it wasn't a problem.
The time spent was longer than I expected, and I was satisfied.
The weather was nice, and I could see Diamond Head beautifully.

ピックアップの時間が20分くらい遅れて、不安になりましたが、遅れたこともきちんと謝ってくれて、好感が持てました。
日本語は通じませんが、日本語の説明書があり問題ありませんでした。
上がってる時間は、思ったより長く感じられ、満足です。
お天気も良く、ダイヤモンドヘッドが綺麗に見えました。

I experienced a group lesson. We started practicing on small waves, and once everyone was able to ride them, we challenged ourselves with the bigger waves further out. The staff were also very accommodating, making it a great memory.

グループレッスンで体験しました。
最初は小さな波で練習して、みんなが乗れる様になったら沖の大きな波にチャレンジ出来ました。
スタッフの方も柔軟な対応で良い思い出になりました。

I have had many snorkeling experiences, mostly on boat snorkeling trips, which gave me a sense of security knowing I could return quickly if anything happened. However, this time I had to swim a bit offshore from the coast by myself for an hour, and I became very anxious and thought about quitting. But the guide held my hand, and I managed to swim for a full hour in the beautiful sea. I had a great time and was very satisfied. Thank you!

シュノーケルの経験は何回もありますが、ボートシュノーケルのことが多く、何かあったらすぐに戻れるという安心感がありましたが、今回は海岸から少し沖の方まで自力で泳いで、1時間と言われ･･･とても不安になってしまい、辞めようかと思ったのですが、ガイドの方が一緒に手を繋いでくれて、綺麗な海をしっかり1時間泳ぎ切りました。
とても楽しめて、満足な時間でした。
ありがとうございました。

At first, I was anxious, but in the end, I had a lot of fun and was smiling. It does take a toll on your stamina though (^_^;). Oh, to my sushi-loving friend Cooguy, the kanpyo is not made from daikon but from "yugao fruit." I mistook it for dried daikon. I'm sorry! When you come to Japan, please eat lots of your favorite sushi (*^_^*).

初めは不安でしたが、最後は楽しくてニコニコでした。体力は奪われますけど(^_^;　あ、お寿司大好きなCooguyへ。かんぴょうは、大根ではなく「夕顔の実」でした。切り干し大根と勘違いしてました。ごめんなさい！日本に来たら、大好きなお寿司たくさん食べてくださいね(*^_^*)

I’m really glad I chose this tour for my first snorkeling experience among various options! The two instructors were very experienced and taught us everything in great detail. It was also very reassuring to have instructions in Japanese. I decided to rent a wetsuit on the day, and they were very accommodating with that as well. Everyone participating in the tour was friendly and nice, making for a very enjoyable time. Thanks to this tour, I was able to learn how to breathe properly and clear my ears. We snorkeled from one end of Hanauma Bay to the other for an hour. Afterward, they explained where we swam by showing us an aerial view of Hanauma Bay, which was also moving. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to see any turtles, but I was able to see a lot of fish.

色々なツアーがある中から初めてシュノーケリングをする私はこのツアーを選んでとてもよかった！と思います。
インストラクターのお二人は経験豊かでとても丁寧に細かいことまで教えてくださいます。日本語で教えてもらえることもとても安心です。ウェットスーツを当日借りることにしましたが、それにも快く対応してくださいました。ツアーに参加されている方々も皆さん気さくでいい方ばかりでとても楽しい時間が過ごせました。呼吸の仕方と耳抜きをこのツアーに参加したお陰で私は習得できました。1時間ハナウマベイの端から端までシュノーケリングします。終わってからどこを泳いだかをハナウマベイを上から見て説明してくださり、それも感動します。残念ながら亀には会えなかったですが、たくさんの魚を見ることができました。

Well organised excursion to see the Arizona Memorial with sightseeing of Honolulu surroundings. There was also an option to add on more to this trip eg the Missouri ship. A little more time at the Pearl Harbour centre would have been better, however the short time at the actual Arizona Memorial was as per the rules of the memorial, and not set by the tour itself. The film before the trip to the actual memorial was excellent. I am mobility impaired and was using a walker, and found my needs amply catered for, and was made to feel valued and welcome.

We had a great time snorkeling in Hanauma Bay with Blue Hawaii Divers. I am not a great swimmer, but our guide helped make me feel comfortable. I felt at ease even when we were out in deeper parts of the bay (~20 ft, I’d guess). We saw so many fish. Snorkeling is a must-do experience, and I think paying for a guided tour is worth it for their expertise and tips. We compared several guided snorkel options before booking this one, and we found this one to be the best value.
Just some other info: we met the group at Hanauma Bay rather than getting picked up, and it was easy to find the meetup spot. Everyone wears an inflatable life vest. The guides had water and chips for everyone after. They also took pictures with a GoPro during our snorkel activity, which were made freely available on the company’s Facebook page.

After boarding the cruiser and heading out about ten minutes, we started in order. Since we were going to do it, we chose the highest course. As we sat on the bench together and lifted our bodies, we floated back and gradually rose higher and higher. There were moments when it shook violently, causing a sense of fear, but the breathtaking views made us forget all that. Looking at the sparkling blue sea and sky with Diamond Head in sight, the experience ended in no time. I highly recommend the highest course if you're going to do it. The feeling of fear probably isn't much different. Lastly, since you can dip your lower body in the sea, wearing swim trunks is recommended.

クルーザーに乗り十分程沖に出て順番にスタート
どうせやるならと一番高いコースへ。
ベンチに2人で腰掛け身体を浮かした瞬間、後ろにふわっと浮いてどんどん上に上がって行きます。たまに激しく揺れて恐怖を感じる瞬間もありましたがとにかくそれを忘れる程の絶景。とにかくキラキラ輝く青い海と空にダイヤモンドヘッドを見ているとあっという間に終わりが来ました。やるなら一番高いコースがオススメです。たぶん恐怖感に大差ありません。最後に海に下半身をつけられるので下は海パンがオススメです。

All I can say is it was exactly what we wanted. Great Great and Great!

I was right to do it with my friends ^ ^
It was so much fun!!!!!!!
I want to do it again when I come to Hawaii~ ^ ^

友達とやって正解でした^ ^
とても楽しかったです！！！！！
またハワイにきたらやりたい〜^ ^

I was a bit worried about parasailing since I'm not good with heights, but my sister really wanted to try it, so I decided to give it a shot!!! At first, I was scared, but once we went up, I was amazed by the incredible view☆ I asked the staff to take pictures from below (which costs extra), but once we were up there, I realized I had some spare time and regretted not bringing my phone with me, haha. I really wanted to take pictures from the sky too!!!

The landing was also handled well, and it was soooo much fun☆ Next time I go, I definitely want to bring my phone up with me and challenge myself again (^ー^)

パラセーリングで、高いところが苦手で初めはどうかな。。。と思っていたのですが、妹からのしたいという希望があり挑戦してみました！！！初めは怖かったけど、上に上がったら最高の景色に感動しました☆下からの写真はスタッフさんにお願いしたのですが(有料です)、上に上がったらいがいと余裕もあり携帯を持っていけばよかったと後悔w　上空からの写真も撮りたかったーーー！！！
着水もしてもらって、とーーーっても楽しかったです☆
次に行ったときもは、しっかり携帯も上空に持っていってチャレンジしたいと思います(^ー^)

This is my second time in Hawaii! This time, my wife and I went parasailing for the first time.

We had a great time with two other Japanese couples and a family with a Japanese wife, making a total of four groups.

The pickup was on time and very close to the hotel, which was easy to find.

It was early in the morning in mid-October, but the wind felt nice as we went higher and higher, and my wife and I were super excited to see the boat getting smaller!

The view of Waikiki Beach and the famous hotels from the ocean was truly amazing!

The price was reasonable, but tips are separate, so be sure to prepare for that!

ハワイは2回目！今回は思いきり遊ぶぞということで妻と初パラセーリングでした。

同じ日本人カップル2組と奥様が日本人のご家族と計4組で当日は楽しませてもらいました。

迎えも時間通りにホテルのすぐ近くまで来てくれてわかりやすかったです。

10月の中旬の朝一番からでしたが風も気持ちよくドンドン高くなっていき、ボートが小さくなる姿に妻とテンションマックスになりました！

沖から見るワイキキビーチや有名なホテルの景色も本当に最高でした！

お値段も手頃でしたがチップは別なので用意は必要ですよ^_^

It was really great. There were a lot of dishes, but it was a bit difficult to line up. The show was wonderful.

すごく良くよかったです。料理は沢山ありましが、並ぶのが少し大変でした。ショウは素晴らしいものでした。

It was the best experience! The staff were very kind, which was great. You can see all of Waikiki, and the blue ocean was wonderful.

最高の経験でした！
スタッフの方がとても親切だったので良かったです。
ワイキキを一望できるし青い海も素敵でした。

I participated in a class starting at 3 PM. After watching a video at the shop on the first floor of the hotel, we walked to the ocean. We practiced on land before taking turns surfing. There were about 10 people in the group lesson, with 3 instructors. They taught us while occasionally mixing in some broken Japanese. For now, everyone in my family was able to stand up. As for whether we were actually riding the waves, that's a bit questionable... I was able to enjoy surfing in Hawaii!

15時からのクラスに参加しました。ホテル1階のお店でビデオを見てから歩いて海へ。陸で練習してから順番に波乗り。グループレッスンで10人くらいいました。先生は3人。時々片言の日本語混ぜながら教えていただきました。取りあえず家族は皆立つことは出来ました。波に乗っているかというと少しあやしいかな‥
ハワイでサーフィンを楽しむことができました〜

This was my third experience with parasailing (the first in Hawaii). The height of 150 meters was exhilarating! The deep blue color of the ocean below was something I had never seen before, and it was truly moving. After enjoying a brief aerial float, I plunged into the sea, and I couldn't help but laugh.

After our turn, it seemed there was a malfunction with the equipment, although the cause was unclear. Unfortunately, the family waiting after us had to return to the port without being able to fly, and I felt very sorry for them.

パラセイリング自体は３度目の経験(ハワイでは初めて)でした。
さすがに150ﾒｰﾄﾙの高さは気分爽快！特に見下ろす海の色が深い青色で、あんな海の色を見るのは初めてで感動しました。しばしの空中遊泳を楽しんだ後は海にジャボン。思わず笑ってしまいました。
私たちの順番が終わった後、原因ははっきりしませんでしたが器具に不具合が生じたらしく、後に控えていた親子は飛べないまま港に帰ることになり、彼らには大変気の毒でした。

As the title suggests, I was nervous watching others ride, but once I actually got on, it felt amazing. The pilots were also really funny, and I was able to laugh the whole time I was on board.

However, I think it's better to have a light meal before riding, as the boat can sway quite a bit, especially with the wind.

タイトルの通りで、他の人が乗っているのをみて、緊張しましたが、実際に乗ってみると、最高に気持ち良かったです。
また、操縦士さんたちもとっても面白い人たちで、乗っている間、ずっと笑っていられました。

ただし、風が吹けば船の移動も含めてかなり揺れるので、乗る前の食事は軽めにしておいたほうがいいと思います。

They picked me up on time at the hotel lobby. The driver was a very fun man. I had a great time with the multinational people who shared the same boat. Motion sickness medication is a must. And above all, the boat staff were the best! They were playful and fun! If I ever go to Hawaii again, I will definitely do this again.

時間通りホテルのロビーに迎えに来てくれました。ドライバーの方大変楽しい男性でした。同じボートに同乗した多国籍の方々とも和気あいあい、盛り上がりました。酔い止め薬は必須です。そして何と言ってもボートのスタッフさん最高！
お茶目で楽しい！　ハワイに行く事があったら是非またします。

The captain was very fun and made us feel relaxed. I had asked him not to drop me in the water (the sea), but it felt like he expertly adjusted it so that only my lower body, or rather my butt, would touch the water—probably on purpose. It was a laughing and enjoyable time.

キャプテンがとても楽しい方で和みました。水(海)に落とさないでとお願いしてたのに絶妙にお尻というか下半身だけ水につくよう調整された気がします、たぶんわざとかと。笑って楽しい時間でした。

My husband wanted to try parasailing last time, but I really couldn't do it, so he held back. This time, I prepared myself for tears and took on the challenge. I decided to go for 150 meters based on reviews. Until the moment I took off, I was really scared and trembling, but once I was in the air, it felt so light and the view was incredibly beautiful, so I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it! I didn't add on photo shooting, but I thought it might have been nice to have a keepsake! I interacted with the others on the boat and we took pictures of each other during the flight, so I recommend that too. It's definitely an activity I want to do again! I think motion sickness medication is a must.

主人が前回したいと言っていましたが私が本当にダメで我慢してもらったパラセーリング。今回は泣くの覚悟で挑みました。口コミを参考にどうせならと150メートル。自分が飛ぶ瞬間までは本当に恐怖で震えていましたが飛んでみるとふわっとして景色がすごく綺麗なので自分でも驚く程楽しむ事が出来ました！写真撮影の追加はしなかったのですが記念にしても良かったかなと思いました！乗り合わせた方々とやりとりして飛ぶ瞬間を撮りあったりしたのでそんなのもオススメです(^^)是非またやりたいアクティビティです♪酔い止めは必須かと思います(^^)

If you come to Honolulu, this is the number one thing you should do! The view is amazing, and the staff are very friendly, so I was able to enjoy it with my friends without any worries! I want to do it again!

ホノルル来たら
これはやった方が良いナンバー1！
景色も最高だし
スタッフの方がとても親切で
不安なく友達と楽しめました！
またやりたいです！

There were few fish, and the only things to see were artificial structures and a sunken ship. I started to feel sleepy. The only time I got excited was when I was on the boat heading to the submarine, feeling the wind... I think it would have been more enjoyable if there had been more marine life. This isn't really the tour company's fault, though...

魚も少ないし見るものと言えば人工的に沈めた枠とか沈没船かな。眠くなってしまいました。テンションが上がったところと言えば潜水艦に向かう船で風に吹かれてるときかな・・・。もう少し生き物がいてくれたら楽しかったと思う。こればっかりはツアー会社のせいじゃないけど・・・。

The content of the show was diverse and very enjoyable without being boring.

When you arrive at the reception, you need to obtain a printed paper with a barcode. Just to be safe, I arrived around 16:40, and there were only about two groups ahead of me in the general line. Since you sit in a vertical line, if you arrive late, you might end up behind tall people, making it hard to see, so I recommend arriving early. Those with priority definitely get in before the general admission, so there is quite a wait between entry and the commemorative photo session. Even after being seated, you have to wait for those who arrived later, so it can feel long while holding a drink. With the buffet-style food, you can only go around once, and because there are many people, you will have to wait. I recommend taking a larger portion of food. If you don’t mind waiting, it’s not a problem, but since it’s in a foreign country with English all around, it can feel like you're waiting longer than the time spent watching the show. However, surprisingly, there were no children throwing tantrums, perhaps because they understood it was a special place.

ショーの内容はバラエティ豊かで飽きずにとても良かったです。

受付に到着したら、バーコードが印字された紙の発行が必要です。念のため16：40ごろに到着したら、一般では前には2組ほどしかいなかったです。縦並びに座るので遅くくると背の高い人の後ろになって見にくくなるので、早めがオススメです。一般より上の方が断然優先なので、入場から記念撮影の間がとにかく待ちます。着席しても、今度は後ろに並んでる人から遅めにきた人まで待つのでドリンク片手に長い。1周しか取れないブュッフェスタイルのフードを取るにも、人数が多いだけあって待ちます。フードは多めに取ることをお勧めします。並ぶのは苦じゃない方ですが、異国で英語が飛び交う中なので、ショー見てる時間より長いんじゃないかって感じてしまいます。でも、子供は意外にも特別な場所ということが分かるせいかぐずってる子はいませんでした。

You don't need to arrive before the reception time since others are quite relaxed about it. It's not a first-come, first-served situation...

Once the submarine dives, it stabilizes, so I didn't feel nauseous or experience any pressure changes. I joined a tour without a Japanese guide, but if you're just looking to enjoy the ocean, it's not a problem.

The handsome guide, Jordan, was hard to understand at all. I found the earphone guide a bit bothersome and took it off halfway through. I was satisfied to see turtles and sharks.

受付時間前に行かなくても他の方がルーズなので大丈夫です。早い者勝ちとかではないので・・・
潜水艦は潜ると安定してるので気持ち悪くなったり気圧が変になることはなかったです。
日本語ガイドがいないツアーに参加しましたが、純粋に海を楽しむなら問題ないです。
イケメンガイドさんのジョーダンが全く分からないくらいです。イヤホンガイドは途中面倒くさくて外してしまいました。亀やサメも見れて満足です。

You can enjoy parasailing, and since you go out into the bay by boat, you can view Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea. Although Japanese is not spoken, the staff is accustomed to Japanese guests, so I think you don't need to worry.

パラセイリングはもちろん、ボートで湾内に出るので、海側からワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めることができます。日本語は通じませんが、スタッフの方が日本人に慣れているので心配ないと思います。

We participated as a family of five on the 90m ride. Our children are 8 and 6 years old, and the 8-year-old brother, who isn't a fan of roller coasters, ended up crying on the boat and couldn't go on. Instead, I went twice. The younger child said it was fun and wants to do it again. If you are prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to take something beforehand!

90ｍに家族5人で参加しました。
子供は8歳と6歳で8歳のお兄ちゃんは元々ｼﾞｪｯﾄｺｰｽﾀｰなど好きではないので案の定船の上で大泣きで出来ませんでした。
その代わりに私が2回飛びました。
下の子は楽しいと言ってもう一回やりたいと言っています。
船酔いする方はあらかじめ飲んでいった方が良いかも！！

The weather was clear, and I enjoyed the view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from above, experiencing sights that can't be seen from the ground. It felt like I was a bird.

We paired up and had about a 10-minute aerial walk. There wasn't unnecessary conversation, but if you wanted, they offered to take photos and provided a chapon service, which was efficient and nice.

We boarded the boat with six pairs and took turns parasailing, but since there was some waiting time on the boat, I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take anti-nausea medication about 30 minutes before boarding.

Since the location was in the developing Ward area, we declined the return shuttle and enjoyed lunch at the newly opened Merriman's in Waikiki before heading back.

It was a memorable day in Hawaii. Thank you, Veltra!

天気は快晴、空からワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドを見渡せ、地上からは見られない景色を堪能しました。
まるで鳥になった気分です。
2人一組、だいたい10分程度の空中散歩です。
必要以上な会話はないけれど、希望すれば写真やチャポンサービスしてくれたりと、サービスに無駄がなくよかったです。
わたしたちは、6組が一緒に船に乗り込み、順番にパラセーリングしましたが、船上での待ち時間があるので、酔いやすい方は乗船30分前くらいに酔い止めをのまれることをお勧めします。
場所は、開発の進むワード地区であった為、帰りの送迎は遠慮し、ワイキキに新しくオープンしたメリマンズで昼食を満喫し帰りました。
ハワイでの思い出に残る一日になりました。
ベルトラさんありがとうございます。
