All Reviews for For 12 Year Olds

My family had a great time and service was excellent and workers are very friendly.

I went on the outrigger tour with my boyfriend and my 74 year old Mom. The guys were VERY kind, helped her in and out of the outrigger and we all had a BLAST!!! We had SO much fun we even paid the pretty expensive price for the thumb drive full of digital pics because we totally had to see it all! We'll never forget this adventure!!

This was a great experience. It was wonderful to be educated about all the ocean conservation and the coral life that is being done. Was also nice at the time, it was not too crowded - which did make this trip worth the price.

Aside from the trouble of finding the checkin location, the parasailing experience was wonderful. We went with a group of 4 - all new to parasailing. The crew consisted ed of 2 people, both of which were amazing. Would definitely go back and do it again.

This X-Treme Ride on Waikiki's Parasailing Adventure was the PERFECT way to end our Oahu vacation. Waikiki and the beautiful sunny day were the perfect backdrop for our last adventure before we went home to the snowy state of Maine! The crew members were awesome and made this so easy and fun. We were able to sit back and enjoy the ride. They offer a photo package so even if you are doing this alone you can still have a bunch of GREAT photos of you living in the moment. I would definitely recommend this activity!

This was our first time parasailing and boy, was it a thrilling, fun experience! The views were amazing, we felt safe and everyone on the boat was cheering for each other! We cannot wait to return to Hawaii and do it again.

Thoroughly enjoyed that experience and will definitely do it again. Have told everyone that they have to give it a try. Your crew was very good and pleasant and the young man talking with us was very entertaining. This is the second time I have been on an Atlantis sub the other was in the Caymans, which I also enjoyed but this one was the best.

Rain started as soon as we left the dock but the captain was amazing under the circumstances. He found a spot where weather wasn’t an issue and everybody had a great time!

My kids loved it and the instructors were great for both my son and my teenagers
It was a good skill for them to have learnt and they enjoyed every bit of it

My child loved every bit of the class and he wants to learn more. He enjoyed every bit of it and the pictures and videos were great. This was fantastic

It was a great lesson in snorkeling! Teacher was very patient and helpful! Would recommend to any newbies wanting to do some snorkeling.

So much fun! The workers were super efficient, entertaining and safe! This is a must do activity when visiting Hawaii even if you’ve parasailed before!

Very good. The lady instrucror was very good n friendly. I am African n we use alot of proverbs i like the fact she spoke in a lot of proverbs which makes me remember home. Loves the artifical ruins for the fishes. Welldone the crew very professional

The captain and his mate kept 2 seniors entertained and helpful in calming our fears about the safety of parasailing. We got to see Hawaii from the air. Well worth the money.

KOA picked us up and was a very enjoyable and safe driver. We had a perfect sunny morning to hike and it was absolutely gorgeous! All of us in our group that hiked are in our 60’s and was not to difficult of a journey for us. The views on the way up and down were beautiful, but the views from the top were breathtaking! One of our favorite excursions while visiting the Hawaiian Islands.

On our first day in Waikiki we started off with a thrill at Outrigger Canoe Surfing! The experience was fantastic from start to finish. Russell was the captain and he and his crew were phenomenal and with their encouragement we powered through the surf and set up for three exhilarating rides over the breaking waves. It felt as though we were surfing. I would recommend this again in a heartbeat.

Wow! Everyone in Hawaii needs to go parasailing! My boyfriend and I did the 1000ft parasail and it was amazing. Our guides who were loads of fun really made it a cool experience. They take pictures for you that you can purchase for $35 that come on an SD card. The process of parasailing was quite simple. You step into some straps, sit down on the end of the boat and they clip two clips on and then BOOM YOU ARE OFF into the sky! You gradually get higher and it is so serene up in the sky. Literally breathtaking. After 6-7 minutes of flying, they lower you down and dip you into the water (for fun lol). So be careful if you are wearing glasses/sunglasses. You’ll get a nice cup of salt water tea!

Our family of 4 had a blast the whole experience was great the boat ride, good music, fun captains and beautiful scenery!

What an experience!!! I was terrified at first and they made me feel so comfortable. I would go again and again and again ! so much fun ! thank you hawaii

It was a first for me and just spectacular! The view amazing from above and I loved the few ocean dunks :) Great customer service from start to finish. When my daughter and I checked in we were greeted with Aloha and a smile and the rest of the experience was all about the Aloha! Big Mahalo to Captain & Russell!

I participated with a friend. In the group lesson, there were four students per teacher, but they helped us catch a lot of waves. I was very satisfied. The teaching style was interesting, and since there were people who could speak Japanese, I was able to relax and enjoy the experience.

友達と2人で参加しました。グループレッスンで1人の先生につき4人でしたが、たくさん波に乗せてくれます。大満足でした。教え方も面白くて、日本語を話せる方もいらっしゃったのでリラックスして参加できました。

Great crew and fantastic experience! We arrived early and were able to catch the next boat ahead of schedule. Our captain flew us over a humpback whale and her baby and we were able to see them breach from above! Can't wait to come back : ) Thanks guys!

Great experience viewing aquatic life from submarine. Totally worth to visit once in a lifetime. On downside, finding the checking point was too cumbersome. Do plan to reach well advance in time. Did see lots of fishes, turtles. A bit on the expensive side, but again where else you would see marine life so closely without getting wet.

This is a family run business. They are experienced and care for your safety, rebooking if the wind picks up without any extra fees. They make it fun for everyone with music and photos. Definitely recommending the 1000ft experience for families. Even the kids had a blast!

I think overall I had great time with parasailing, the view from top was awesome. We had two issues, first issue, we were the last family to do parasailing and they cut short our time in the air <6 minutes, (yes I timed ours, compared to first family) so they did not manage time well even though they advertised 8 mins from start to finish. second issue, photos we bought from them did not open on my computer and when I tried on another computer there were no photos at all, just wasted my money :-(. Next time, I would choose different parasailing vendor for sure.

Excellent thrill ride! Staff was excellent too! Will go back the next time we’re here again.

Fabulous. It was one of the best things I have ever done. I highly recommend this as a activity must do!!! We will cherish this experience forever!

My family and I had a good time. The two guys were attentive, and knowledgeable. The only thing is the pictures- we were a part of 6 and the pictures that I got were the same over and over again. The pictures are not worth it. Also I would advise to give dramamine to anyone in your party with the most minimal motion sickness.

We are a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids 9yr old and 6yr old). Instructor was very patient enough to guide us how to snorkel. He provided us some tricks to make snorkeling easier for beginners. He was always there to help us out and made us feel comfortable. Except for my spouse everyone else in the group are non-swimmers, the instructor helped us navigate through the water, and to top it he took amazing videos of us while snorkeling :)

The was the BEST parasailing we’ve ever done - and we’ve done several on both coasts of the mainland and different islands. Although the seas were a bit rough, the parasailing was outstanding. The captain and crew of Freedom were gems. My son said he would give them a 6 out of 5 stars - lol.
Definitely go for the 1000 feet! The windy day really had us flying well above any of the competition.
Will do this one again on our next visit.
