Yet again another excellent tour from VELTRA and Operators. Bus driver Tommy was funny and more importantly on time, he gave us all the information we needed. We climbed at 9am and did it in 20mins as we wanted a workout. Spent some time at the top, taking in the views. Made our way down slowly, sat under the trees in the park and waited to be collected by Tommy. All done by 1130am. Perfect!

I invited my colleagues on a company trip for the first time and we went on a catamaran yacht. The view of Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach from offshore was amazing. The wind was blowing, making for a fantastic sailing experience, and we even encountered dolphins swimming alongside us and saw sea turtles. It was the best cruising experience. When I mentioned that I had some sailing experience, the captain kindly let me operate the winch and take the helm, creating unforgettable memories. Thank you to the captain and the crew. My colleagues, who were on a yacht for the first time, were also very satisfied with the cruising experience. If I have the opportunity again, I definitely want to ride on the Mai Tai again.

初めて会社の旅行で同僚を誘いカタマランヨットに乗りました。
沖合から見るダイヤモンドヘッド、ワイキキビーチは最高です。また風も吹いてヨットとしての走りも最高、さらにイルカの並走、ウミガメにも遭遇し最高のクルージングでした。私がヨット経験者だと伝えるとキャプテンの計らいでウインチ作業、舵も握らせて貰い、最高の思い出になりました。キャプテン、クルーの皆さん有難うございました。初めて乗った同僚もヨットのクルージングに大満足しておりました。
また機会があれば必ずマイタイ号に乗りたいと思います。

My first time in Hawaii and my first time parasailing was an amazing experience. As I've gotten older, I've become a bit uneasy with heights, so I had some concerns, but parasailing was something else entirely. It was fantastic!

初めてのハワイ、初めてのパラセーリングは最高の体験でした。
歳を取るにつれて少し高いところが苦手になってきて、少し不安がありましたが、パラセーリングは別物でした。最高です！

I was very satisfied running through the town of Honolulu and along the coast while feeling the breeze! I will definitely sign up again when I come to Hawaii!

ホノルルの町中と海沿いなど風を感じながら走れ非常に満足できました！また、ハワイに来る際にはぜひ申し込みいたします！

The Viking was a bit tiring, but it was worth the climb! The view was spectacular. The guide was also very kind. I'm glad I participated.

バイキングは少し疲れましたが
登る価値あり！
絶景です。
ガイドさんもとても親切でした。
参加して良かったです。

We participated as a family of four. We put on our swimsuits and headed to the meeting point, then boarded the boat to go out to sea. There were two crew members: the captain and one staff member. It seemed there were two boats for parasailing. Since there were many Japanese tourists, some basic Japanese words were used, but the main language was English. The speed of the boat going out to sea was exhilarating! The moment we were told to put on the gear and go, we soared into the sky. So high! So beautiful! So refreshing! The blue sea, the clear blue sky, and Diamond Head unfolded before us like a postcard. The parasailing was colorful and doubled the fun. It was truly an enjoyable sailing experience. You can take photos with your phone, which you can hang around your neck in a waterproof cover. The staff also takes pictures for you. They save them to your phone's files and even give you an SD card. They took 270 pictures for us. This happened after the reception staff at the building showed us the photos on a tablet after receiving the SD card. You give tips directly in cash to the staff when you get off the boat. At other restaurants, it felt like you could choose from three options: 18%, 20%, or 23%, so around 20% seems to be the norm. It was a happy time with the friendly and smiling staff in the relaxed flow of Hawaiian time. We checked in 30 minutes before our reservation, and the total experience lasted about an hour and a half. It was a great activity to experience. A Hui Hou 🌺

家族４人で参加しました。水着を着て集合場所へ行き、ボートに乗って沖へ出ました。船長（キャプテン）とスタッフ１人の2人体制です。見た所パラセイルのボートは２船あるようでした。日本人観光客が多いのがカタコトの単語は出てきますが基本は英語のみ。沖へ出るボートのスピードは爽快！器具をつけてGOと言われた瞬間ふわぁーっと空へ飛び出しました。たかーい！キレイ！気持ちいーい！ブルーの海と真っ青な空とダイアモンドヘッド、絵葉書の世界が目の前に広がります。パラセイルはカラフルで楽しさ倍増。ホントに楽しいセイリングでした。防水カバーに入れたケータイを首から下げて写真撮影可能。スタッフさんも写真を撮ってくれます。ケータイのファイルに落としてくれてSDカードもくれます。270枚も撮ってくれてました。40ドルでした。これは建物の受付スタッフさんがSDカードを受け取ってタブレットで見せてくれてからの事です。チップはボートを降りるときにスタッフさんに直接キャッシュで渡します。他のレストランでも18％20％23%の3種類から選ぶような感じだったので大体20％くらいが相場のようです。ハワイ時間の流れる穏やかで笑顔明るいスタッフさん達と幸せな時間でした。予約時間の30分前に受付して、トータル１時間半くらい。体験してよかったアクティビティでした。A Hui Hou 🌺

My wife and I participated (both 65 years old, haha). This time, four groups jumped. Besides us, there were newlyweds from Japan, a group of three foreign men (two of whom jumped), and a cheerful group of four (two of whom jumped), along with two crew members.

We were the first to jump, cheered on by everyone. It was incredibly fun. Up in the sky, the wind felt nice, and I was amazed by the blue of the sea below. After being dipped in the sea about three times (when we touched the water for a while, the speed of the boat increased and we floated up, and then when the boat slowed down, we touched the water again), we safely landed back on the boat.

While the other three groups were jumping, we felt like we were cruising and were never bored at all. The crew member even told us about delicious places to eat in Honolulu.

I’m not sure about the others, but when we disembarked, I gave each of the two crew members a $10 tip. I also purchased photos on an SD card for $40, which could be copied directly to my iPhone on the spot. It was a great experience.

かみさんと参加（どちらも65歳 笑）。
今回，飛んだ(?)のは4組。船には，我々の他は，日本からの新婚さん，外国の男子3人組（内2名飛び）と陽気な男女4人組（内2名飛び），クルー2名。
我々は，皆の歓声に見送られて，1番に飛びました。
めちゃくちゃ，楽しかったです。
空の上は，風が気持ちよく，とにかく下に見える海の青さに感激です。
3回ほど海にチャポンと浸け（しばらく着水すると引っ張る船のスピードが上がって浮き上がり，また船が遅くなると海に着水する・・みたいな感じです）られた後，無事に船上に着陸(?)。
あとの3組が飛ぶ間も，クルーズしている感じで，全く飽きませんでした。クルーのにいさんがホノルルのおいしい店を教えてくれたり・・。
他の人たちは不明ですが，下船時，クルー2名に心付けを$10ずつ渡しました。
SDカードの写真も$40で購入しました。その場でiPhoneにコピーもできました。
良い体験しました。

I had a great time surrounded by beautiful seas. I only caught small fish, but I think it's good for families and beginners. If you're prone to seasickness, taking motion sickness medication is a must.

綺麗な海に囲まれて楽しかったです。
小魚しか釣れなかったですがファミリーや初心者向けに良いと思います。
船酔いが気になる人は、酔い止め必須ですよ。

Cirque du Soleil's AUANA is a must-see when you visit Waikiki. The 80 minutes flew by in no time. It was amazing. The entire venue comes together as one. There are laughs, and everyone who comes will definitely think it was fantastic. The air conditioning is strong, so women might want to bring a jacket! Everything in the show is incredible, so please make sure to experience it.

シルクドソレイユAUANAは、ワイキキに来たら必見です。80分があっという間に過ぎました。凄いです。会場全体が一つになります。
笑いもあり、凄い良かったと来た人は、必ず思います。冷房が効いていて、女性は上着がいるかも！内容は、どれもすごいので是非体験してください。

I've seen Cirque du Soleil several times, and without a doubt, this is the best one yet. The show progresses at a good pace, seamlessly incorporating the beauty of Hawaii without becoming boring. The performers are truly amazing, and the surrounding production is also fantastic. I watched from the front row center, and it was a valuable seat. You can experience the performance up close with overwhelming intensity. Next time, I want to see the whole show from the back.

シルクドソレイユは何度か観ましたが間違い無く過去最高です。展開に飽きる事なくハワイの素晴らしさを織り交ぜながらテンポ良く進みます。パフォーマーの素晴らしさは圧巻ですが周りの演出も素晴らしいものがあります。最前列中央で観ましたが価値ある座席です。パフォーマンスをじっくり間近で圧倒的迫力で体感できます。次は後方から全体を見渡したいと思います。

During my first trip to Hawaii, I was worried about whether I could enjoy it due to my age, but the staff's enthusiasm and the photo service (for a fee) made it a lot of fun.

初めてのハワイで、年齢的な事もあり、楽しめるのか心配でしたが、スタッフの盛り上げや写真サービス（有料）もありとても楽しめました。

I climbed to quite a high place, and the view is amazing! You can see Waikiki and Diamond Head all at once. When coming down, if you ask, they will let you dip your feet in the sea for a moment (laughs).

かなり高い所まであがり、景色が最高です！ワイキキやダイアモンドヘッドまで一望できます。
下に降りて来るときは希望したら一瞬海に足をちゃぽんしてくれます(笑)

We purchased this event with no expectations good or bad, After a terrific meal and such a variety of good food next came a amazing show well choreographed and just plain goodtime for everyone in attendance
100% We will be back

I participated with my wife and our 8-year-old child. There was another Japanese family, so we were in a group of two families. We all went parasailing together, which created great memories. When returning to the boat, we got wet up to our waists, so I think wearing swimsuits is essential. The tour guide spoke a little Japanese. There was also an option for photo shooting, which cost $40 (and you don't have to buy them if you don't like them).

妻と子供(8歳)と3人で参加しました。他に日本人の親子が1組おり、2組での参加でした。3人一緒にパラセーリングさせてもらい、良い思い出になりました。船に戻る際は一旦腰まで着水しましたので水着は必須かと思います。添乗員は少し日本語が話せました。また、写真撮影のオプションもあり料金は$40でした。（気に入らなければ購入しなくて良いそうです）

I decided to go after seeing the promotion at the Hawaii EXPO in Tokyo the year before last. I watched the entire show, and even a week after returning home, I still can't contain my excitement. It's beautiful and thrilling; it’s definitely something you should see.

一昨年東京でのハワイEXPOでプロモーションを観て、行こうと決めていました
全編を観れて未だに帰国後1週間経っても感激がおさまりません
綺麗だしスリリングだし、絶対に観るべきです

We participated as a group of four adults, and everyone had their own preferences: some wanted to drink beer, others wanted to enjoy the scenery, and some wanted to feel the thrill and splashes of water at the front of the boat. Each person's wishes were fulfilled, and everyone was very satisfied. We even encountered a submarine. It was a lot of fun!

大人4人で参加しましたが、ビールを飲みたい人、景色を楽しみたい人、船の先端でスリルと、水しぶきを感じたい人、
それぞれの希望が叶って、全員大満足でした。潜水艦にも遭遇しました。
楽しかったです〜

Harasho is never boring as you can see various types of things while tracing back through history. Michael Jackson makes an appearance, and there’s a fire show, so I had a great time! The show is in English, but I think you can still enjoy it even if you don't understand English!

ハラショーは、歴史を遡りながら色々な種類のものを見ることができるので、飽きません。マイケルジャクソンが出てきたり、ファイヤショーがあるので、すごく楽しめました！ショーは英語ですが、英語がわからなくても楽しめると思います！

This was my second time participating, following last year. Thanks to the cheerful staff, I quickly ascended to 150 meters above ground. It was a refreshing flight while enjoying the view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head with the blue ocean below. On the way back, we raced back to the port, bouncing over the sea. I want to experience it again.

昨年に続き二回目の参加でした。陽気なスタッフにより、あっと云う間に上空150mへ。青い海を眼下にワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めながら、爽快な飛行です。帰路は海の上を跳ねるように全速で港へ戻ります。また体験したくなります。

I visit this show almost every year. This year, the cast for Presley and Michael has changed. Michael didn't resemble him very much... But the show itself is enjoyable, and I'm glad I went. I guess it's inevitable that the buffet food before the show isn't very tasty.

ほぼ毎年こちらのショーにお邪魔してます。
今年はプレスリーとマイケルのキャストの方が変っておりました。
マイケルはかなり似てなかったなぁ…
まぁでもショー自体は楽しいですし、行って良かったです。
ショー前のバイキングのお料理があまり美味しくないのが仕方ないのかな。

When the performance started, two foreign tourists took out their smartphones and kept taking pictures and recording, which made it difficult to concentrate on enjoying the show. I suppose these tourists think that since they paid for their tickets, it's fine to use their phones, but it was a very disappointing experience. I wish the staff had been more attentive and had taken a stance to monitor the audience.

開演始まると、2名の外国人観光客が自分のスマホを取り出して次々と写真撮ったり、録画をしたりして
集中して鑑賞出来なかった、、、こういう外国人観光客は、お金を払ったんだからスマホぐらいいいだろって考えなのでしょうが、、、とても残念な時間でした。
もう少しまわりのスタッフが観客を見渡して注意する姿勢が欲しかったです。

The Cirque du Soleil I saw in Japan was great, but the Hawaii version was the most enjoyable I've experienced so far‼️ I was captivated by the high level of skill‼️ It was so wonderful with the kahiko that I almost thought I was in Maui😊

日本で見たシルクドソレイユも良かったけれど、ハワイバージョンは、今までで1番楽しませてくれました‼️
技術の高さに感心して見惚れてしまいます‼️
本物のマウイかと思うほど，カヒコと共に素敵でしたー😊

Amazing‼️
First time paragliding🪂
Challenging it for the first time at over 60‼️
It was so much fun😊 I was so impressed by how wonderful it felt😊
This is definitely going to become a regular thing‼️

最高〜‼️
初めてのパラセーリング🪂
60歳過ぎて初めて挑戦‼️
楽し過ぎたー😊こんな気持ちの良いものかと、感激でしたー😊
もうこれは毎回の恒例になりそうです‼️

It was a much more wonderful show than I expected.

We were seated in the third row from the front, to the side. Being so close to the stage, I could feel the performers' tension. Watching them take a deep breath before starting their act made me feel like I was praying for them. When a big trick succeeded, everyone erupted in applause! The people in America really know how to enjoy themselves. I thought to myself that I want to be someone who can cheer loudly too.

The show utilizes the entire venue. There are plenty of highlights in the back and along the aisles as well. I also thought it would be nice to sit in the back next time to take in the whole view, or to see it from the front row in the center. No words are needed, so anyone can enjoy it. I highly recommend it.

予想よりもずっと素晴らしいショーでした。

私たちは前から3列目横の席でした。
ステージに近いので演者の緊張感が伝わってきます。大きく深呼吸してから演技をスタートする姿をみてこちらも祈るような気持ちになりました。大きな技が成功するとみんな拍手大喝采！アメリカの人たちはノリがいいですよね。私も大きな声で声援を送れる人間になりたいななんて思いました。

ショーは会場全体を使ってやります。会場の後ろや通路も見所いっぱい。次は後ろの席で全体を眺めてみたいとも思いますし、中央の前列でも観てみたいと思えました。
言葉は必要ないので誰でも楽しめます。オススメです。

My son and I enjoyed this so much. Captain John and his crew were fantastic, super friendly and accommodating. Since it was the 2 of us, I had to pay for a third person (one of the crew members), but it was all worth it. This was something I dreamed of doing and I 'm so glad we did. We even saw a turtle. At the end of the ride we took pictures with the crew and enjoyed a very pleasant conversation with the captain. Highly recommend!

I made a reservation to make my 78-year-old father happy! The buffet offers delicious food, and you can take as much as you can eat. The hula dance includes lessons, so everyone can participate without feeling nervous. A lovely lady playing the ukulele went around the tables singing requested songs, which was truly heartwarming! My father, who is dealing with sciatica and taking painkillers in Hawaii, had the biggest smile in a photo with the nostalgic Elvis Presley! Not only is there Old Hawaii, but the show also features Moana's hula dance. The fire dance in the VIP section is incredibly powerful!

78歳の父に喜んでほしくて予約しました！ビュッフェも美味しく食べれる量だけとれますし、フラダンスはレッスン付きでみんな一緒に緊張しないで参加できます♪
ウクレレ弾きのおばさまがテーブルを回りリクエスト曲を歌って下さり感無量になりました！
坐骨神経痛の中、ハワイで痛み止めを飲みながら過ごしている父が..懐かしのプレスリーさんとのお写真に最高の笑顔でした！
オールドハワイだけでなく、ショーにはモアナちゃんのフラダンスもあります♪ファイヤーダンスはVIP席、大迫力です！

The crew was lively and really got everyone excited. We rode on one boat with 12 people and took turns parasailing. They took photos for us, and I purchased them for $40. They took many beautiful pictures, which became great memories of the trip.

クルーはノリノリで盛り上げてくれます。
12人で１つのボートに乗り、順番にパラセーリングします。
一眼で写真を撮ってくれるので、$40で購入しました。綺麗に沢山撮ってもらえて、旅の思い出になりました。

I participated in a monitor tour, and the show was amazing, exceeding my expectations.

I knew it was at the Royal Hawaiian Center, but this was my first time attending. Before the show, there was a luau, and I enjoyed watching hula dancing right next to me, as well as a hula lesson that participants could join in on, which was fun.

When I arrived at the venue, I was given a lei and seated. While waiting for dinner, I enjoyed pineapple and mai tais while listening to the ukulele. However, this waiting time felt a bit long, so I thought it would be nice if the time from check-in to the start of dinner was shortened, or if there were activities like hula lessons or lei making available.

The food was plentiful, with so many varieties that I couldn't finish it all.

The show was more powerful than I expected, with exciting dances and songs while watching Hawaii's history on the screen. Even though I knew the performers were impersonators of Michael and Elvis, I was captivated by their energy. The final fire knife dance, where the floor became a sea of fire, was surprising. It's definitely worth seeing.

After the show, being able to take photos with Elvis, Michael, and the dancers makes for a great memory.

モニターツアーがあったので、参加させていただきましたが、期待以上に引き付けられるショーが最高でした。

ロイヤルハワイアンセンターなので、あるのは知っていたのですが、今回初めて参加しました。ショーの前に、ルアウがあり、すぐ横でフラダンスがみられたり、実際に希望者が参加できるフラレッスンもあって、楽しかったです。

会場に着くと、レイをかけてもらって、席に着き、食事の時間までパイナップルとマイタイで、ウクレレを聞いたりするのですが、この間がちょっと手持無沙汰なので、受付から食事開始の時間をもう少し短くするか、フラレッスンや、レイメイキングなどがあるといいかな～とも思いました。
お料理も盛りだくさんで、食べきれないくらい、いろいろ種類がありました。

ショーは、期待以上に迫力があって、ハワイの歴史をスクリーンで見ながら、趣向を凝らしたダンスや歌で盛り上がります。マイケルやエルビスのそっくりさんのステージも、そっくりさんとわかってはいても、その迫力に魅了されました。最後のファイアーナイフダンスは、床が一面火の海になる演出もあって、びっくり。ぜひ、見る価値ありです。

ショーの後は、エルビスやマイケル、ダンサーたちと写真が撮れるのも、よい記念になります。

After pushing the luggage on the cart and exiting through the personal exit, there is a staff member in a yellow aloha shirt right there, and it's fine to just tell them your name. After sitting down, within about 10 minutes, the bus arrives right in front of you. The driver will lift and store your large suitcase, making it easy even for women. Since it stops at hotels in Waikiki, you can get off right in front, which is really helpful. I definitely want to use this service again next time.

Before the show, there was a buffet where we could enjoy delicious food. While waiting, there was a service that played requested songs on the ukulele. I took a little bit of everything from the dishes, and since there were many options, it turned out to be quite a lot. Additionally, there was a dance performance while we were eating, which made the meal enjoyable. The dessert afterward was also delicious. However, it took quite a while for the food to be served after the gathering time had passed. It would have been appreciated if they could have started the meal a bit earlier.

The show afterward was also fun and very lively. They performed impersonations of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. To be honest, I wasn't very familiar with Elvis Presley, but I enjoyed all of Michael Jackson's songs. The dancing was all at a high level and impressive. However, it might have been even more captivating if everyone had a similar body shape.

ショーの前にビュッフェ形式でご飯が食べられて美味しかったです。待っている間にリクエスト曲をウクレレで演奏してくれるサービスもありました。料理の方は全ての料理を少しずつ取りましたが品数が多いのでかなりの量になりました。また、ご飯食べている最中にダンスを披露してくれるので楽しくご飯が食べられました。そのあとのデザートも美味しかった。あと集合時間が過ぎてから料理が出てくるまでが結構長かったですね。もうちょっと早く食事を開始してくれるとありがたかったです。

そのあとのショーも楽しくとても盛り上がりました。エルビスプレスリーとマイケルジャクソンのモノマネを披露してくれるのですが、正直エルビスプレスリーはあまり詳しくなかったのですがマイケルジャクソンの曲は全て楽しく見させていただきました。ダンスは全てレベルが高くてすごかったです。ただし、全員の体形が揃っているともっと見ごたえがあったかもしれません。

They spoke to us in a friendly manner and provided explanations so that even Japanese people could enjoy it. I felt relieved that the consent form was in Japanese! I did get seasick, which was tough, but it became a memorable experience!

日本人にも楽しめるように気さくに話しかけてくれたり説明をしてくれた。同意書が日本語で安心しました！
船酔いしてしまってきつかったですが思い出になりました！
