Waikiki
First of all, a pickup came to the trolley stop near the hotel, making it easy to get around, and they also dropped us back at the hotel. It was my first experience with parasailing, and I felt a bit anxious at first, but once I was up in the air, all my worries disappeared. The view from above was incredibly beautiful, and the wind while being pulled by the boat was amazing. I could see Waikiki, downtown, and Diamond Head all at once, and the feeling of having that stunning view all to myself was truly luxurious! The parasailing lasted about 10 minutes, and there were two handsome guys on the boat who made the atmosphere really fun, which made it a great experience. They also took photos during the parasailing and on the boat, and although it cost $30, I was able to capture those wonderful memories. This experience made me want to try various water activities like parasailing again when I come back to Hawaii! Thank you very much!
まずは、ホテル近くのトローリー乗り場までお迎えが来てくれたので、簡単に移動ができ、帰りもホテルまで送ってくれました。パラセーリングの経験は初めてで、最初は不安な気持ちもありましたが、いざ自分が上空へ行ってみると不安だった気持ちは全くなくなりました。上空からの景色はとても綺麗で船に引っ張られながら感じる風は最高でした。また、景色はワイキキやダウンタウン、ダイヤモンドヘッドまでが一望でき、完全に独り占め状態の景色はすごく豪華なものでした!!約10分くらいのパラセーリングですが、船の上ではイケメン2人が楽しく雰囲気を盛り上げてくれ、とても楽しかったです。また、パラセーリング中や船の上での写真も撮ってくれ、30ドルのお金はかかるものの、楽しい思い出を形に残すこともできました。次にハワイへ来た時にもパラセーリングなどの海でのアクティビティーをいろいろとしたくなるような体験ができました!!ありがとうございました!!
I went parasailing yesterday! It was my second time in two years, and the height was thrilling and fun. The crew was also very lively!
However, they were 20 minutes late picking us up, and we had to wait about 30 minutes after arriving.
So, if you want to book another activity or restaurant next time, I think it's best to allow for some extra time.
昨日パラセーリングしてきました!
2年振り2回目ということで高さもあり楽しかったです。
クルーの方もノリが良かったです!
しかし、迎えに来るのが20分遅かったり、着いてからも30分くらい待ちました。
なので、次に別のアクティビティーやレストランを予約したい場合は、ある程度余裕を持った方がいいと思います。
This was an amazing experience!! It was my first time para-sailing and it was awesome!! If you haven't tried it, I tell you, go for it!! :) I loved it!!
After fellowship in Honolulu, my co fellows & I decided to try the Atlantis submarine as our final activtity! All worth it & my daughter who is with us enjoyed the Waikiki underwater. Great to see Waikiki underwater!
I was able to experience the wonderful world of marine blue. I could admire various types of fish and see sea turtles resting on a ship that was sunk for the purpose of creating a reef. I also saw them swimming afterward... The Japanese commentary was witty and added to the fun. I highly recommend it to everyone.
マリーンブルーのすばらしい世界を体験できました。さまざまな種類の魚が鑑賞できまた、魚礁用に沈めた船の上で海がめが休んでいる姿を見ることができました。その後で泳いでいる姿も、、、。日本語の解説もウィットに富み、楽しさ倍増です。皆さんにお勧めします。
I had a great time during the first session. They spoke a little Japanese and understood me, which was nice. I definitely want to do it again! ♪
1回目で立てたしすごく楽しかったです
日本語も片言で話してくれるし理解してくれるのでよかったです
是非またやりたいです♪
Please come again! Cute picture!!
また ぜひ いらして下さいね! Cute Picture!!
This parasail experience was great from start to finish. They picked us up at our hotel promptly, our driver was very fun and knowledgeable about the island. Parasailing gives you just the right amount of adrenaline and once you're up there it's so relaxing. I got to go twice! And next time I visit Hawaii I will definitely do it again! Once we were done we got our pictures and crossed the street to the beach :)
There is a pickup service from Waikiki Beach.
After checking in, you board the boat, listen to the instructor's explanation, and put on your life jacket.
As you rise quickly, the ocean spreads out below you!
If you don't want to get wet, you can return without getting wet.
It was so much fun and went by in no time!
ワイキキビーチから送迎あり。
受付をして船に乗り、インストラクターの説明を聞き、ライフジャケット着用。
一気に上がると下は一面海!
水に濡れたくないといえば、濡れずに戻ってこられます。
すごく楽しくてあっという間でした!
I have a slight fear of heights, and I was quite nervous before getting on. However, the cool instructor explained everything carefully, which made me feel a bit more at ease. The explanation was in English, but there were parts that were easy to understand in Japanese.
The day of the experience was relatively windy, but the boat didn't sway much. After putting on the gear, I scooted to the back of the boat, and we were all set! Once we lifted off, it surprisingly wasn't that scary, and I was able to enjoy the view!
While we were up there, I felt like a bird♪ Since we went up in pairs, it’s perfect for couples! You can see the high-rise buildings of the hotel district all the way to Diamond Head, and the blue horizon and sky were absolutely beautiful!
At times, there was a little trick where my feet would touch the sea, but it actually felt nice♪ If you don’t want to get wet, just let them know before you go up, and they’ll make sure you stay dry from start to finish.
I didn’t have the courage to let go, so I left my waterproof camera on the boat, but I regretted a bit that I could have taken pictures when we were up there... (laughs) The instructor took photos with a zoom lens, and there’s also an option to have a video taken. Both require an additional fee to receive the data. While waiting on the boat, I wasn’t bored at all; I watched the experiences of other participants and enjoyed the scenery.
Overall, it was a very satisfying program!
プチ高所恐怖症で、乗る前は結構ドキドキしていました。ですが、インストラクターのかっこいいお兄さんに丁寧に説明してもらい、ちょっと安心。説明は英語でしたが、ところどころ日本語で分かりやすかったです。
体験した日は比較的、風が強い日でしたが、ボートはそんなに揺れませんでした。装備を装着し、ボートの後ろの方へ座りながらずりずり移動し、準備万端!ふわっと上がって、上がってしまったら意外に怖くなく、景色も楽しめました!
上がっている間は鳥になった気分♪ペアで上がるのでカップルにはぴったりですよ!ホテルの高い建物が並ぶビル群からダイヤモンドヘッドまでが一望でき、青く広がる水平線と空がとてもキレイでした!
時々、足が海につかるイタズラ?をされましたが、それすら気持ちいい♪濡れたくない人は上がる前に言っておけば、始めから最後まで濡れないようにしてくれます。
私は手を離す勇気がなかったので、防水のカメラをボートにおいて体験しましたが、上がった時に頑張れば写真撮れたな···とちょっと後悔(笑)インストラクターのお兄さんが望遠で写真撮ってくれますし、さらにオプションでビデオも撮れます。どちらもデータをもらうのに別料金が必要ですが。ボートで待っている間も、他の参加者の体験見たり、景色を眺めたりで退屈しませんでした。
こんな感じで、体験して大満足のプログラムでした!
Loved the show and it was great to have some time at the end to take photos with the performers. A great night!
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。
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。
I heard from a knowledgeable acquaintance about this show being enjoyable, so I decided to sign up. To conclude, I was very satisfied with the content.
Since I participated in the Green Room Monitor Tour, I was initially guided to the Green Room, but I was not used to the VIP treatment and felt confused. I think it was meant to be a special hospitality setting, but I felt it wasn't necessary to pay for it.
The backstage tour was interesting, but it didn't exceed my expectations. The show was as expected, featuring performances by Elvis, Michael, and Gaga, as well as hula and fire shows, which I thoroughly enjoyed. However, I wish the quality of Gaga's performance had been a bit higher.
Regarding the meal, the portion size was appropriate, and I thought the taste was good. However, the chocolate cake for dessert was too sweet, and I didn't see anyone around me able to finish it. I think it might not suit Japanese tastes.
It became a wonderful memory for my last night in Hawaii. I would like to visit again if I have the opportunity. Lastly, thank you to all the backup dancers for your hard work. Keep it up!
ハワイ通の知人から、このショーが楽しいと聞いて申し込みしました。
結論からいえば、大変満足できる内容でした。
グリーンルームモニターツアーへの参加ということで、最初グリーンルームに案内されましたが、VIP待遇に慣れておらず、わけがわからず、戸惑いました。特別なもてなしという設定だと思いますが、料金を払ってまで必要はないかなと思います。
舞台裏見学はおもしろかったのですが、期待した以上の内容はありませんでした。
ショーは期待どおりで、プレスリー、マイケル、ガガのショーだけでなく、フラ、ファイアーショーもあり、大変楽しめました。
ただ、カガのクォリティーが、もう少し高ければと思います。
食事に関しては 量も適量で、味も良かったと思います。
ただ、デザートのチョコレートケーキが甘すぎ、周りの人で食べきれている人はいませんでした。日本人の口には合わないと思います
ハワイ最終日の夜の良い思い出になりました。機会があればまたお邪魔したいと思っています。
最後にバックダンサーのみなさんたいへんお疲れさまでした。がんばってください。
Thank you very much for visiting us. We are very pleased to receive your valuable feedback and warm words for our staff. We sincerely look forward to your visit again when you come to Hawaii.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠にありがとうございます。貴重なご意見、そしてスタッフへの暖かいお言葉、とても嬉しく思っております。また、ハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂きます様、スタッフ一同心よりお持ち申し上げます。
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?!
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。
The organization of customer entry is inadequate. If we don't assign guides and make announcements in Japanese, attendees will wander around with their drinks, going back and forth multiple times before entering the venue. By the time they get in, they've already finished their drinks while waiting in line, making the drinks unnecessary.
As for the content of the performance, I would rate it four stars.
お客様の入場整理がだめです。案内人を配置する、日本語でアナウンスするなどしなければ会場に入るまでにドリンクを持ってあっちうろうろ、こっちうろうろと何回うろうろさせられたか、ドリンクは入場まで並んでいる時間で飲んでしまい、ドリンクは不要ですね。
本番の中身は、星4つですかね。
Thank you very much for attending our show.
We are very sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with our service.
We will translate your comments into English and forward them to the respective managers to strive for improvement in the future.
Thank you for your valuable feedback.
All of our staff look forward to welcoming you again.

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。
The show featured impersonations of Michael Jackson, Lady Gaga, and Elvis Presley, along with Polynesian dance and a fire show, making for a packed experience. The impersonations were surprisingly high quality and truly impressive!
In particular, Michael's dance was captivating, and it was worth coming just to see that! Presley even came down to the audience, showing great spirit of service! Gaga's acoustic performance was also great. After the show, they took photos with us in pairs and offered handshakes and autographs. It was a really fun show, and I would love to see it again.
I signed up for the cocktail show, but I had no trouble seeing the stage from the second floor. Next time, I want to participate in the dinner show as well.
マイケル・ジャクソン、レディ・ガガ、エルビス・プレスリーのモノマネショーに、ポリネシアンダンス、ファイヤーショーと盛りだくさんの内容でした。モノマネも想像以上にクオリティが高く、本格派で圧巻でした!
特にマイケルのダンスは見応えがあり、これだけでも観に来る価値がありました!プレスリーも客席まで来てくれたり、サービス精神満載!ガガの引き語りも良かったです。ショー終了後はそれぞれ2ショットでの写真撮影にも応じてくれ、握手にサインも。とっても楽しいショーでまた観に来たいです。
カクテルショーで申し込みましたが、二階席からでも問題なくステージを見渡せました。次回はディナーショーにも参加したいです。
Thank you very much for participating in Rockaflower Waikiki.
We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed it.
If you have another opportunity, please consider joining us for the dinner show as well!
We look forward to your next visit.

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、
Nice view!
I try Parasailing every year!
I will try parasailing at Hawaii parasailing next year!
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!!!!
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!
