All Reviews for For 12 Year Olds

I was a bit nervous at first because I have a fear of heights, but it wasn't scary at all! Even at 90 meters, it felt low. The weather was great on the day I participated, and there was no wind at all, so it was refreshing! I highly recommend it!

高所恐怖症なため最初はちょっとビクビクしてましたが全然怖くないです！
９０メートルでも低いくらいです。
参加日は天気も良く、風も全くなかったので爽快でした！おすすめです

I tried parasailing for the first time. I went higher than I expected, which was a bit scary, but the strange feeling of flying in the blue sky and the fun of it outweighed my fear. I want to try it again.

パラセーリングは初めてやりました。
思ったよりも高く上がって少し怖い気もしましたが、青空を飛んでいる不思議な感覚とおもしろさのほうが恐怖心を上回りました。またやってみたいです。

I had a great time.
The two-person seats are arranged side by side, so it was much more comfortable and enjoyable than sitting vertically. You can also purchase photos for $30, and I'm looking forward to seeing them when I get home! 😊

凄く楽しかったです。
二人のりのシートも横に並んでるので縦に二人より凄く快適に楽しめました♪写真も30ドルで購入できるし、帰って見るのが楽しみです♪(^-^)

Great Experience for all, Would do this one again.
Wish it was a longer dive with more to see but over all, Great...

I had to wait for almost an hour until the others arrived to board the submarine, and the boat was rocking, making me feel sick. The weather was bad, it was cold, and the visibility was almost zero; I couldn't see anything. It was the worst.

潜水艦に乗る移るまであとの人たちが来るまで１時間近く待たされ、船が揺れて気持ち悪くなった。天候も悪く、寒くほとんど透明度がなく、何も見えなかった。最悪。

This was such an amazing experience....would love to do it again. Even better as we were in a group of 3 which made the experience worth while. The driver was so nice and very welcoming, she picked us up right outside our hotel, right on time and went around to other hotels to pick up other passengers. When we got to the harbour we immidiately put on our life jackets, and we were then out in the ocean. If anyone is going to do this activity definitely do it with friends or family...it will definitely be a great memory to share with loved ones. It was definitely beyond my expectations of what the ride would be like. the ride was smooth and calm, was also really nice weather as well.

This was such an amazing experience...would totally recommend it to anyone that is going to Oahu in Hawaii....we went in a pair which made it more fun. Would definitely do it again. We were the first ones to go and as the parachute pulled us up in the air the view was already amazing. As we were all up in the air we could see the tiny boat below us. We got the chance to see dolphins that were coming in and out of the water. We were up in the air for a good 8 mins, and as we started to come back down to the boat we got dipped into the cold ocean salty water. This really is worth while and i would definitely consider doing it again when i visit hawaii again.

This is such a great activity especially for the young kids..getting to experience a world under water and seeing all of the beautiful fish.

I convinced my timid third-grade son to give it a try, saying that he would surely gain something from the experience. Although he started crying just before the jump, he was able to enjoy the scenery during the flight! He said it was fun. Of course, we parents had a great time as well. The round trip by boat to the island was pleasant, and I think it will definitely be a must for our next visit.

怖がりの小学３年生の息子に勇気を出してトライしたら、きっと何かが得られると説得して参加。
飛ぶ直前泣き始めたものの、飛行中は景色を楽しむ余裕も！楽しかったそうです。
親の私たちももちろんとても楽しめました。沖までのボートの往復も気持ちよくて、次回もマストだな、と思ってます。

My husband and I had so much fun. We went up 800ft. It was so cool to see Waikiki beach from the air. There were 5 couples on the boat. Everyone had fun. The crew was nice and professional. We drove ourselves to the marina and their office was easy to find. Check in was simple. While on the boat you have the option of having them take professional photos of you while you are parasailing. It cost $30 extra for this service which I think was well worth it. My husband had never parasailed before and he loved it. I think next time I will try the 1000ft option which one couple did on our trip. Being on the speed boat was fun too, but the water is very choppy so make sure you are prepared if you are prone to motion sickness.

The pickup was on time with very friendly service. The driver gave us great commentary and made us have an enjoyable trip to the dock. The parasail itself was amazing having views of the amazing horizon and mountains. We used a 3 person harness so that we could share the experience as a family and it was exceptional. Really comforting staff who were very funny as well. It was a very enjoyable trip and made us feel very safe as well. One of our party was quite hesitant at first however the reassurance provided by the captains got him up in the air. The trip on the boat and the parasail experience was very professional - highly recommend!!

We had an amazing time! If you aren't afraid of heights and are throwing around the idea of a 800 versus a 1000 foot line, go with 1000. The crew is incredibly friendly and the experience was amazing. I would definitely recommend paradailing with this company.

I participated with my child. We were the only ones there for the early morning session. The shuttle driver was very high-energy and spoke to us in high school-level English, saying things like, "You absolutely shouldn't shop at ABC Store in Honolulu. It's too expensive! If you're going to buy something, go to 7-Eleven or Don Quijote instead!" He also told us about affordable yakiniku restaurants and surfing lessons with high discounts!

During parasailing, they treated my child with great care, allowing us to experience it with peace of mind! This was my second time trying it, and I felt it was even better than before!

子供と2人で参加しました。朝一番での参加でしたが、参加したのは我が家だけでした。送迎のおじさんはとてもハイテンションで、高校生レベルの英語でずっと話をしてくれ、「ホノルルでは絶対にＡＢＣストアでは買い物はだめだ。高すぎる！買うならセブンイレブンやドンキーがあるから、そっちで買いなさい！」とか、安い焼肉屋さん、割引率の高いサーフィン教室等を教えてくれました！
パラセイリングは子供に丁寧に接して頂き、安心して体験する事が出来ました！
今回は2回目の体験でしたが、以前よりも良く感じました！

First, you can enjoy a truly VIP experience sitting on luxurious sofas in the green room while being served champagne and pinchos. After that, you can take a commemorative photo with Gaga. Then, an older brother who resembles Ebizo will guide you backstage, where you can see stage costumes and props, including Michael Jackson's glove, and even touch some hula accessories (like pom-poms).

You get to go on stage and take commemorative photos, spending a really enjoyable time. The seats are right in the center of the front row, allowing you to see Elvis, Gaga, Michael, and in between, the hula and fire dance performances, making the time fly by.

This was not just an impersonation or lip-syncing; it was a real singing and dancing entertainment show. The food was plentiful, including lobster, steak, salmon, and more, all delicious.

Finally, at the exit, you can take a commemorative photo with each person and get signatures on the photos taken in the green room before heading home.

まず、グリーンルームでシャンパンやピンチョスなどを豪華なソファーに座ってサービスされ、ホントにＶＩＰな気分を味わいます。その後ｶﾞｶﾞと記念撮影。
その後、海老蔵似のお兄さんに舞台裏を案内され、舞台衣装や装置、マイケルジャクソンの手袋など見せてもらったり、フラの小物（ポンポンなど）を触らせてもらったり…
実際に舞台上に上がり記念写真を撮ってもらい、なかなか楽しい時間を過ごしました。
席は、舞台最前列のど真ん中で、エルビス、ｶﾞｶﾞ様、マイケル・・・その合間のフラやファイアーダンスなど、しっかり見られ、あっという間の時間でした。
物まね・・・という域ではなく、口パクではなく本当に歌って踊るエンタ―テーメントのショーでした。
お料理はボリュームがありロブスター、ステーキ、サーモンなどなど有り、おいしくいただきました。
最後に、出口で一人ひとりと記念撮影をし、グリーンルームで撮った写真にサインをもらって
帰りました。

The pickup bus was quite late. I understand that it's the same for people from other countries, but there was no explanation in English, only in their language, and they couldn't speak Japanese. Inside the submarine, the chatter of those people was loud, and I couldn't enjoy it much. Additionally, the weather conditions were bad, the water was murky, and there were hardly any fish, so honestly, I felt like I wanted a refund. It's disappointing. I hope for a better experience next time.

迎えのバスもずいぶん遅れた。他国の方と同じなのは理解できるが英語ではなく、そちらの言語だけで日本語は話せないのでとのことで説明なし。潜水艦の中もその方たちのおしゃべりの声が大きくてあまり楽しめなかった。重ねて天候の状態が悪く、濁っていて魚もほとんどいなくて正直お金を返してほしい気分だった。残念。次回に期待。

Both my companion and I were first-timers, but the staff were full of humor and service spirit, and they were very efficient, which made us feel very comfortable during the experience. The photo SD card costs $30 for over 100 pictures. We, as a pair, had 107 pictures taken, while a family of four had 130 pictures.

私も同行者も初めてでしたが、スタッフの方々は皆さんユーモアとサービス精神たっぷりで手際も良く、とても安心して体験できました。
写真のSDカードは１組＄30で100枚以上撮ってくれます。２人参加の私たちは107枚。４人参加のご家族は130枚でした。

Our experience with Hawaiian Parasail is great and we're so happy we chose them. We did the 800 feet, parasailing was exciting and the view was beyond description.

They were nice an patient with us all the time. Our original reservation was at 4:00pm the first day we got on the island, but our flight was delayed so we called them to see if we can reschedule. They were understandable and helped us with rescheduling, so patient and professional! The activity was rescheduled again due to weather, but we made it on a beautiful morning:)

Staff were nice and professional all the time, we felt safe and welcomed. We also did some whale watching while in the sea, it's the season and you can't miss it!

Quick tip: if you're driving there, check in with them first since there're some free parking spots nearby:)

Highly recommend to everyone!

December 31, 2014 - I have been para-sailing before, but this time I took my 12 year old daughter with me for her first experience. Why start small - we soared to 800 feet and had a blast. We had a great experience with Hawaiiann Parasail in Waikiki. From their friendly customer service representatives to the van driver to the boat personnel everything was top notch. Apollo and Jamie, our boat driver and para-sail guide were fun. I enjoyed the music on the boat while the other guest's were flying and their system for getting everyone ready to fly was efficient and I felt safe the entire time. I would fly with Hawaiiann Parasail again and recommend them to anyone looking for this type of experience.

This New Year's, I went to Hawaii for the first time! I attended the Rock-a-Hula show by Legends in Concert Waikiki for the second time. The last time I watched from the back of the second floor, I saw people in the front row enjoying their meals while watching the show and thought, "This is how it should be in Waikiki!" I decided that next time, I would sit there for a revenge experience! So, I splurged on a VIP tour that included a behind-the-scenes look.

There were four groups participating in this tour. First, we waited in the VIP room, which had free drinks and a variety of delicious snacks that left us very satisfied! After a while, Lady Gaga came to take individual photos with us. Then, a manager who could speak a little Japanese slowly walked us through the backstage for about ten minutes, showing us props and set pieces while explaining everything. Standing on stage and looking out at the audience, I felt like I was Elvis or Michael—it was the best!

We sat in the front row for a full-course dinner, which was quite tasty! Finally, the show began, and being in the front row was completely different from watching from the second floor! We were so close that we could even see the sweat. Our eyes met several times, and it was just amazing! My wife was also really into it and at her maximum excitement level! I'm so glad I decided to splurge! She was extremely happy.

Since we came to enjoy Hawaii, I especially recommend this to couples from the Elvis and Michael generation. How about a surprise gift for your wife?

年末年始、お正月で初のハワイ！
ロック・ア・フラショーbyレジェンド・イン・コンサート・ワイキキは、今回2回目。
前回2階席後方から観た際、最前列席で優雅に食事し観ている人達をみてワイキキはこうでなくては！ 次回はリベンジ？！あそこに座って観よう！と決め、今回VIP待遇の舞台裏まで見るツアーに思い切って奮発し参加しました。
このツアーに参加したのは4組のグループでした。まずはVIPルームで待機。フリードリンクや美味しいツマミが数多くあり大満足！
暫くするとレディガガが来てくれて個々の写真撮影。それから片言の日本語が話せるマネージャーが10分程度舞台裏をゆっくり歩きながら小道具・大道具などを見せてもらい説明を聞きました。舞台に立ち客席を見て自分がプレスリー、マイケルになった気分で最高！
最前列の客席に座ってフルコースディナー。まずまず美味しかったかな！
いよいよショーの始まり、やはり最前列は2階席から観るのとは大違い！汗までも見えるほど近い。何度も目が合い、もう最高！ 妻ものりのりでテンションMAX！思い切って奮発して良かった‼️大変喜んでもらいました。
せっかくハワイにエンジョイしに来たのだから、特にエルビス、マイケル世代のご夫婦にはお薦めです。
奥様にビックリプレゼントとしていかがですか‼️

I participated in "Rock-a-Flash Show" by Legends in Concert Waikiki (inside the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center) / ☆Members Only Monitor Tour☆ / Green Room Dinner & Show. I am very satisfied with the high-quality show. Here are the details.

First, while enjoying champagne in the VIP room, Elvis came in and took a commemorative photo with us. After that, we had a backstage tour led by a guide who resembled Ebizo, and he explained everything in English, making it easy for us Japanese to understand without feeling nervous. After detailed explanations of the dressing room, lighting, and backstage, we were guided to a table in front of the stage for dinner. The meat was tender, and the shrimp was delicious, leaving us very satisfied.

Although it was a dinner show, Elvis was the first to appear. We could understand the feeling of when he first visited Hawaii through his costume, and even for those of us who are not from that generation, we could appreciate his high level of skill. After that, Lady Gaga made a surprise appearance. Her dance was impressive, but her piano performance and humorous act were very easy for the older audience to understand, creating a sense of unity in the venue. When Michael appeared at the end, the venue erupted with his overwhelming dance skills and singing voice. We were captivated for several minutes by his perfectly recreated dance performance. Being able to see his performance in Hawaii was a precious memory during our seven-day stay, truly living up to the name "King of Pop."

After the show, there was a photo opportunity with all the performers, and we had time for autographs and conversations, which is another reason I recommend this experience. In addition to the first-class performances of the main stars, the local performers dancing hula and the fire dance skills were uniquely Hawaiian and made for a very valuable experience.

I felt that this high-quality show could be enjoyed even by those who do not know Elvis or Michael in real-time. Thank you for the enjoyable time in Hawaii. I would like to visit again on my next trip to Hawaii.

　今回ロック・ア・フラショー by レジェンド・イン・コンサート・ワイキキ （ロイヤル・ハワイアン・ショッピングセンター内） / ☆会員様限定モニターツアー☆／グリーン・ルーム・ディナー＆ショー に参加して来ました。
　完成度の高いショーに大満足しております。以下が詳細になります。最初にVIPルームでシャンパンを頂いていたら、エルビスさんがVIPルームに来て記念撮影してくれました。その後海老蔵似の案内人によりバックステージの見学しましたが、英語で丁寧に説明してくれたため、日本人の我々にも分かり易く、とても慣れた感じで緊張することなく理解すること出来ました。控え室、ライティング、ステージ裏を細かく説明頂いた後、ステージ前のテーブルに案内されて食事を頂きました。お肉も柔らかく、海老も美味しく大満足でした。
ディナーショーですが、最初に登場したのがエルビスでした。ハワイを初めて訪れた当時の感じが衣装からも理解ができ、世代では無い私達にも彼の技術の高さは理解出来ました。その後は、レディガガがサプライズな演出での登場。ダンスも印象的でしたがピアノ演奏と非常にユーモアのあるパフォーマンスには年配に方々にも非常に分かり易く、会場が一体となっておりました。最後にマイケルが登場した際には、圧倒的なダンス力と歌声で会場は大盛り上がり。完全に再現されたダンスパフォーマンスに数分間見入ってしまいました。まさにKING　OF　POPという名に恥じない彼のパフォーマンスをハワイで観れた事は７日間の滞在の中でも貴重な思い出となりました。ショー終了後にはパフォーマー全員との写真撮影があり、サインは勿論、会話もする時間を設けて頂けるため、間近で彼らに接する事が出来るのもお勧めする理由です。又、主役の方々の一流のパフォーマンスは勿論でしたが、周りでフラを踊っている現地パフォーマーの華やかさや、ファイヤーダンスの技術はハワイならではで大変貴重な経験となりました。
　リアルタイムでエルビスやマイケルを知らない方でも必ず満喫することが出来る完成度の高いショーだと感じました。この度は、ハワイでの楽しい時間をありがとうございました。またハワイ旅行の際には行って見たいと思います。

What a fun and must-do activity in Oahu! The courtesy pickup van arrived about thirty minutes before our ride right in front of our hotel. The driver, Greg, was funny and knowledgeable about the area, and offered us advice on restaurants and culture.

We boarded the boat with a couple of other groups, with plenty of room to spare. There were cubbies under the seats to keep our clothes and other possessions dry while riding. Most of us went on the 800 foot line, and the views from the top were stunning: deep teal waters and the gorgeous honolulu skyline! On the descent, the captain dipped us into the water, which was very refreshing. However, you can also choose to remain dry. Highly recommend this to anyone visiting!

I was dragged along by my younger brother, who really wanted to go, and although I wasn't too enthusiastic about it, I had a great time. I managed to stand on the board just barely. Riding the waves was fun, but paddling out to the ocean was quite a struggle. I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

どうしても行きたいという弟に引きつられ、気乗りしないまま参加しましたが、楽しかったです。ボードにもかろうじて立てました。ただ、ボードに乗って波に乗っていくのは楽しいのですが、沖までこいでいくのは一苦労でした。また機会があれば参加したいです。

That was the highlight of our trip! My girlfriend thinks it's the best activity we have done in hawaii! The ship drives fast and the crews are nice. Very very very good experience overall. Hawaii is such a magical place where one can find great activities like this one. We are blessed to have found this place otherwise our trip to oahu (honolulu) hawaii would have been a waste of time. We would recommend everyone to take this trip and you will see what we are talking about here about this trip. Great great great experience after all. We really really really like it with absolutely no regrets. Thanks!!

This supposedly-risky activity was my & my teenage daughter's v first! The two captains were cool...they were v encouraging. After doing it, we wanna do more and more!! They even dipped our feet in the Pacific Ocean for 3-5 seconds....WOW!! But just as we'd requested them before we began, it was a completely dry takeoff & landing on the boat! One of them kept on taking pictures of our entire 8 minutes of parasailing ride, but they never pressured us to purchase the SD card for $30. All they said was if we were interested we could first see 'em at the check-in kiosk. I couldn't believe the pix came so neat....and that too around 125 of 'em!! That was a no brainer! I am gonna post 'em on Facebook real soon...

We have never parasailed before so we were v scared in the beginning. The two captains -- Jason & Kevin -- were awesome, n assured us we'll want to do encores after this. Boy were they right! Me & my teenage son went 8 mins on the 800 ft line & had a gr8 time. Waikiki never looked more beautiful!! We both were on cloud 9...literally! The climax was an icing on the cake, when we asked to be slightly dipped in the ocean before landing back on the boat. The pix that they took were well worth the extra $30 we paid. Even on choppy waters, Jason took crisp close-up shots...when we were almost over 200 ft in height. I highly recommend this for everyone!

I participated alone. Since I have experience, I inquired in advance whether I could choose a rental surfboard other than a soft board, and I received a response that I could choose either a soft board or a regular longboard (11 feet). When I arrived at the shop and mentioned this, a Japanese male coach abruptly responded, "Who said that?" in a confrontational manner. He also said, "If you have experience, you should just rent a board," which left me feeling very frustrated. I had hoped to only have a guide, but due to various circumstances, I applied for the school... Even when I asked other questions, he showed no willingness to listen and maintained an attitude of "just do as we say." It was disappointing because the responses from the other coaches were not bad, but overall, my impression is the worst. I never want to see his face again. I don't think he is suited for customer service.

一人で参加しました。
経験があるので、事前にレンタルのサーフボードをソフトボード以外も選べるのか問い合わせたところ、ソフトボードか普通のロングボード（11フィート）を選べるとの返事がありました。
ショップに到着し、その旨を聞いたところ日本人の男性コーチが「そんな事誰が言った？」と
いきなりのケンカ腰での返事。
「経験があるのなら、レンタルボードすればいいでしょ」との発言もあり、非常に憤りを覚えました。こちらもガイドのみを希望したかったのですが色々な事情でスクールを申し込んだ訳で・・・
他の質問をしても、彼は全く聞く耳を持たず「こちらの言うとおりにしろ」という態度を取るばかりでした。
他のコーチの対応は悪くなかっただけに残念ですが、全体の印象としては最悪です。
もう二度と彼の顔を見たくありません。接客業には向いてないと思います。

Time of my life! Everything was so smooth. I was nervous for take off and landing but it was effortless. Absolutely stunning. Would do it over and over again!!

I participated with my sister. Since neither of us speaks English, I was a bit anxious that we could only understand the instructions through feelings. However, the captain was cheerful and communicated with gestures, which allowed us to have a great time! We were able to communicate with other foreigners on board through gestures, and although there are many Japanese people in Hawaii, we could still experience a sense of being abroad.

I was unsure about how high we would go while parasailing, but even at 90 meters, it was totally manageable! The ascent and descent were slow, so there was no feeling like a roller coaster, allowing us to enjoy the scenery and even take pictures.

The price is a bit steep, but I would definitely want to do it again when I come to Hawaii!

妹と参加しました。
2人とも英語が喋れないので、注意事項などを説明して頂いてもフィーリングでしか分からなかったのが、少し不安でした。
しかし、船長さんも陽気で、身振り手振りで教えてくれるので、楽しく過ごすことができました！
一緒に乗った外国人の方と身振り手振りでコミュニケーションしたりと、ハワイは日本人が多いといいますが、外国気分を味わうことができました(^_^)

パラセーリングも何メートル飛ぶかを悩んだのですが90mでも全然余裕でした！
上昇するときも降りるときもゆっくりなので、ジェットコースターのような感覚は一切なく景色を楽しむことができ、写メを取る余裕も（笑）

お値段が少々はりますが、ハワイに来たらまたやりたいです！

I go to Hawaii every year, but this was my first time signing up for this dinner show. After checking in at 6 PM, I was guided to the green room, feeling like a VIP.

There, I saw a Lady Gaga impersonator who looked stunning in a bubble-themed costume. After taking a photo with her, three waiters offered us welcome drinks, appetizers, and a fruit platter, and we toasted on a luxurious sofa!

Next, we were shown the star's dressing room and backstage. The guide spoke in English but mixed in some broken Japanese while explaining the stage setup, and we even got to take photos on stage.

As for the meal, we were seated at the front VIP table, and the portions were just right and delicious, featuring lobster, steak, salmon, truffle mashed potatoes, and fondant chocolate.

After the meal, an Elvis impersonator made his entrance. During the first song, he came down to the audience and presented leis to women, greeting them with kisses. The ladies were squealing with excitement.

Next, Lady Gaga appeared, captivating the audience with her dance and sultry outfit.

The highlight was definitely Michael Jackson. There were many women shouting "Michael! Michael!"

Finally, the show concluded with everyone singing "We Are the World," which was very moving.

After the show, we had the opportunity to take commemorative photos with the stars at the exit. MJ was the most popular, and we lined up in a long queue to take pictures. Even up close, he looked just like him!

The impersonators were not only similar in appearance but also sang beautifully live. It was my first experience, but I definitely think this tour is highly recommended.

　毎年ハワイに行っていますが、初めて今回のディナーショーに申し込みました。１８時に受付を済ませると、VIP待遇を受けているような雰囲気でグリーン・ルームに案内されました。
　すると、そこにはレディーガガのそっくりさんが(*^^)v。。。。シャボン玉の衣装をまとってとても綺麗でした。ガガと写真撮影をした後、３人のウェイターさんからウェルカムドリンク、オードブル、フルーツ盛り合わせを進められ、豪華なソファーで乾杯！
　次にスターの控室やバックステージの案内です。英語ですが片言の日本語を交えて舞台装置の説明があり、実際に舞台の上で写真を撮ってもらいました。
　食事ですが、一番前のVIPテーブルに案内され、ロブスター、ステーキ、サーモン、トリフ入りマッシュポテト、フォンダンショコラなどボリュームも丁度で美味しかったです。
　食事が終わると、まずはプレスリーのソックリさんが登場。最初の歌で観客席に降りてきて女性に「レイ」をプレゼントして、挨拶のキスをしていました。女性陣のキャーという声が響いていました。
　次は、ガガが登場。ダンスと色っぽい衣装で観客を魅了していました。
　やっぱり盛り上がるのは、マイケルジャクソンでした。「マイケル×２」と叫んでいる、おばさんがたくさんいました。
　最後に、全員揃ってWe are the worldの合唱でのフィナーレは、感動的でした。
　ショーが終わると出口でスターとの記念写真撮影ができました。こちらもMJが一番人気長で蛇の列に並んで撮りました。近くで見てもやっぱりそっくりでした(^○^)
　そっくりさんは顔だけでなく歌もそっくりで生歌でとても歌が上手でした。初めての体験でしたが、絶対おすすめのツアーだと思います。

My 9-year-old daughter and I went on the 800ft on 12/31/14. The pick up from our hotel was on time, and the driver was engaging and informative on the way to the harbor by telling stories of famous landmarks and where some movies were filmed.

When we arrived at the harbor we quickly boarded the boat and were off to the waters off of Waikiki.

My daughter was naturally a bit hesitant at first, but the crew--Pablo and the driver--were calm, friendly and professional, which helped my daughter get mentally prepared.

When it was our turn, we were all smiles. After hooking up to the apparatus, up we went. We expected a more jarring and rough ride, but it was incredibly smooth and peaceful. We had great views of Waikiki and the surrounding area. My daughter remarked that that was how birds must feel.

I would highly recommend this to just about anyone. It was the highlight of my daughter's stay in Waikiki and we did a lot of activities. Pablo and the driver (sorry, I forgot his name) were awesome in every way.
