Will, CJ and the staff were awesome. Highly recommend HH

I booked one night before our leaving and I get confirmed next morning, it was such a realife. We was alone at the bus, what was funny.

I participated with my daughter.
The rainbow colors reflected on the surface of the sea were beautiful!
I paid an extra fee for a photo shoot, but I wonder if that was necessary ^_^
Also, motion sickness medication is a must‼︎

娘と参加しました。
海面に映るレインボーカラーが素敵でした！
別料金を払って撮影してもらいましたが、これは必要なかったかな^_^
あと、酔い止め必須です‼︎

We experienced this on our honeymoon!
The hotel picked us up on time.
The staff was very entertaining, and the scenery was incredibly beautiful, making it a lifelong memory!!
However, I took motion sickness medication beforehand, but due to my susceptibility to seasickness and the significant rocking of the boat, I ended up getting sick...
Still, I was very satisfied because I was able to have an experience that is hard to come by!!!
This time, there were four groups, and it was great that we could go and experience it quickly without taking too much time!

新婚旅行で体験しました！
ホテルにも時間通り迎えにきてもらえました。
スタッフの方もとても面白く、景色もすごく綺麗で一生の思い出になりました！！
ただ、事前に船酔い対策に酔い止めを飲んでいたのですが、
とても酔いやすい体質と、ボートのゆれがかなりあるのとで吐いてしまいました……。
でも、なかなかできない体験をすることができたので大満足です！！！
今回は4組でさっといってさっと体験できて時間もあまりかからない点もいいです！

I have been on a Catamaran before and this one just really didn't have enough seating for everyone. Was forced to seat on the floor at the front on the boat in a really uncomfortable position. Luckily me and my wife are young so we could deal with it. If you are a older person, you should get there early to get a more suitable seat.

Every year, I use this service to travel from the hotel to the airport when I come to Hawaii. The pickup time is always accurate, and I feel safe during the ride. There have been no issues, and I will definitely use it again.

毎年ハワイに来るたびホテルから空港までの移動に利用させて頂いています。迎えの時間も正確で道中も安心して乗車しています。特に問題も無くまたリピートさせて頂きます。

Although I made a reservation the day before, they were able to accommodate me. I think this is the cheapest shuttle bus option available for solo travelers. The reason I didn't give a perfect score is that the bus arrived about 15 minutes late, which made me a bit anxious while waiting. However, that kind of delay might be normal for "Hawaii time." When I boarded, I was the only passenger, but they mentioned that another person was supposed to join. We made a stop at another hotel, but that person never showed up, so it ended up being a private ride for me, which felt a bit awkward. The bus took the scenic route along my favorite Ala Moana Boulevard instead of the highway. Seeing Ala Moana Park and Aloha Tower at the end of my trip was quite moving. The driver was very cheerful and full of Aloha spirit, making for a really pleasant experience. I think this bus is perfect for wrapping up wonderful memories. Next time, I plan to use it for a round trip if the opportunity arises.

前日の予約でしたが、応じていただけました。
一人で予約できるシャトルバスとしては最安だと思います。
評価が満点でなくマイナスなのは、15分くらいバスの到着時間が
遅れ、バスがくるまで少し不安になったからです。
でも「ハワイ時間」としてはそれくらいの遅延は普通かもしれませんね。
私が乗り込んだときは、私一人でしたが、もう一人乗る予定があるということで、
一か所別のホテルに立ち寄りましたが、結局その方は現れず、
私の貸切状態となり、申し訳ない感じでした。
バスは高速ではなく、私の大好きなアラモアナブールバードを通って行きました。
旅の最後に見る、アラモアナ公園やアロハタワーは感慨深いものがあります。
運転手さんはとても陽気で、
アロハスピリッツにあふれた、とても気持ちの良い方でした。
このバスは、素敵な思い出の締めくくりに最適だと思います。
次回、機会があれば往復で利用するつもりです。

It was really scary. The guide was trying to entertain us and was very enthusiastic! I'm glad I had a good experience! I was worried about the English guide, but the receptionist spoke Japanese, which made me feel at ease.

すごく怖かったです。ガイドさんは楽しませようとしてくれて、のりのりでした！良い経験ができてよかったです！英語ガイドで不安でしたが、受付の方が日本語で安心しました。

We participated as a couple. Since it was our first time surfing, we were quite anxious, but we had a lot of fun! There were Japanese staff members, so it was fine for those who don't understand English.
We joined a lesson around 8 AM on February 24, and it was pretty cold. (laughs)
In the end, we even received a free T-shirt, and we were very satisfied! Thank you!

カップルで参加させていただきました。はじめてサーフィンするのでかなり不安でしたが、十分に楽しめました！日本語のスタッフさんもいるので、英語がわからない方でも大丈夫でしたよ。
2月24日あたり朝8時からのレッスンに参加しましたが、かなり寒いです。笑
最後には無料のTシャツまでいただけて大満足です！ありがとうございました！

This sail was great and I like it . Just the location was difculty to find for me. I walked around for while and asked a few of people, finally I found boarding place it is the time for boarding already.
Otherwise everything is very good, the stuff is nice and professional, the weather is good and the sailing tour is very enjoyable.

I was a bit anxious because the bus didn't arrive even after 10 minutes past the meeting time, but a cheerful man came to pick us up (laughs). Since the scheduled time was 4 PM, which was a bit late, there were no other customers, just us. The staff were really nice people, and it became a truly enjoyable memory.

For parasailing, I chose the 120m option. It might be a little scary for first-timers, but it's just for a moment. Also, since it was windy, there was a feeling of floating when the wind stopped. However, even my friend who can't handle roller coasters (like the Tower of Terror at Tokyo DisneySea) was able to do it, so I think most people can enjoy it!

集合時間から10分経ってもバスが来てくれなくて、ひやひやしましたが、陽気なおじさんが迎えに来てくれました（笑）
時間は16時と遅め指定だったからか、他のお客さんはおらず、私たちだけでした。スタッフさんがとても気のいい人達で、ほんと楽しい思い出になりました。
パラセーリング自体は、120mを選びました。初めての方は少し怖いかもしれないですが、一瞬だけです。あと、風が強かったので、風が止んだときに浮遊感がありました。ただ、ジェットコースター（TDSのタワーオブテラーなど）が無理な友達でも乗れたので、ほとんどの人が楽しめると思います！

It was good, The kids loved it. There wasn't very many fish or things to look at.

This was an awesome experience and my husband and I had a great time! We both felt very safe at all times and were provided with mandatory life jackets as a safety measure. From the hotel pick up to the drop off, everyone was pleasant, courteous and met all our expectations. I would highly recommend this company again!

Extremely fun! I'm terrified of heights, but this was worth it. The bus picks you up right at your hotel and takes you to the dock, where you get on a boat with two really funny but knowledgable guys to guide you through this. Never felt unsafe, never felt like I should have picked a different company. They even took pictures of us and we got to buy the photos on an SD card after the event. Well worth the money and would definitely do again.

"Did I manage to ride even as a beginner?!"
My friend (a woman in her mid-20s with excellent athletic ability and skilled at snowboarding) managed to catch waves and was smiling and giving peace signs with both hands by her second try, despite it being her first experience surfing. The instructor even asked her, "Is this really your first time?" She seemed very satisfied and said, "I want to surf again when I go back to Japan!" (^^)

On the other hand, I (a generally average woman in my early 30s with no particular aversion to sports) fell 7 times out of 10 attempts and could only stand up about 3 times (even then, I couldn't manage a peace sign and was quite wobbly).

"The instructor was amazing"
I have participated in various tours with Veltra, but I thought this instructor had the toughest job. When we got tired from paddling, they would pull me along while paddling and push us with all their might to help us catch waves... it was really physical labor!!! I thought it was a tough job. They were also fun to chat with, which made it easy to tip them (^^).

"The photos were great"
They were secretly taken from the shore and turned out quite well.

"The beach was full of reefs and corals"
We wore shoes for surfing, but even so, I ended up hitting my legs against the reefs and corals when I fell. At first, we learned how to protect ourselves from the reefs and corals, but I still bumped into them a bit. As someone who isn't very skilled, I ended up with a lot of bruises on my legs... Σ(-᷅_-᷄๑) Also, the sea was cold in February.

《初めてでも乗れたか⁉︎》
友達（運動神経抜群の20代半ば女性。スノーボードが得意）は、サーフィン初体験にも関わらず、２回目のトライからもう波に乗って、両手を大きく挙げて笑顔でピースをしていました。
インストラクターさんから、「あなた、本当に初めて？」と聞かれるほど。
そんな彼女はやはり満足度が高かったみたいで、「日本に帰ってからもサーフィンやりたい！」と言っていました(^^)

一方、私（運動に苦手意識はない一般的な30代前半女性）は、１０回中、7回転び、3回立てるかな（それでもピースは無理。へっぴり腰）くらいになりました。

《インストラクターがすごい》
今までベルトラさんで色々なツアーに参加してきましたが、今回のインストラクターさんが、一番たいへんだろうなぁと思いました。
というのは、私達がパドリングに疲れたら、私の事も引っ張ってパドリングしてくれたり、私達を波に乗せるために力一杯押してくれたり…ほんっと肉体労働！！！
たいへんなお仕事だなぁと思いました。
おしゃべりが面白くて楽しいってのもありましたし、チップを気持ちよく払えました(^^)

《写真が良かった》
岸からこっそり撮られています。なかなかの出来でした。

《ビーチは岩礁とサンゴだらけ》
サーフィン用の靴を履いてやるんですけど、それでも転んだ時に、脚を岩礁やサンゴにぶつけてしまいます。
最初に、岩礁やサンゴから身を守る方法を習うのですが、それでも多少はぶつけちゃいます。
下手な私は、脚に青あざがたくさん…Σ(-᷅_-᷄๑)
それから、2月の海は寒かったです。

Five years ago, I also went parasailing in Hawaii. It was so much fun that this time was my second experience.

However! This time, it was a very windy day... (/ _ ; ) The boat was rocking back and forth...

...I got sick m(_ _)m

There were 11 people on the tour, including me, and both me and another person got sick (/ _ ; ) Even during the parasailing, the wind was strong, and I couldn't enjoy the scenery, feeling more like "This is scary~."

That said, it’s true that I had fun five years ago, so it really depends on the weather. Also, since it's a short activity, I think it's a good point that you can easily book it during your free time (o^冖^o)

5年前にも、同じくハワイでパラセイリングをしたことがありました。その時、とーっても楽しかったので、今回２回目でした。

しかし！今回はとても風が強い日で…(/ _ ; )
船がもう、揺れて揺れて…

…吐きましたm(_ _)m

船には、ツアー体験者が私を含め11人いたのですが、私ともう一人が吐いてました(/ _ ; )
パラセイリング中も風が強くて、景色を楽しむ余裕もなく、「怖い〜」って感じでした。

ただ、5年前は楽しかったのも真実なので、お天気しだいというところかと。
あと、短時間のアクティビティなので、あいてる時間に気軽に申し込めるのが良い点かなぁと思います(o^冖^o)

I participated with my family, and we got along well with the other participants, spending a fun time together. I learned quickly and was able to ride right away, creating the best memories.

家族と参加したのですが、他の参加者とも仲良くなりみんなで楽しいひと時を過ごせました。
教えてもらいすぐ乗れるようになり最高の思い出になりました。

I experienced it at 120 meters. When I actually saw it, it was really high, and I was nervous until it started, but with the encouragement of the lively crew, I was floating in no time! I was able to hand over my smartphone for them to take pictures, and as long as you’re careful not to drop it, you can also take photos from up in the air. I will definitely go again when I visit Hawaii!

120mで体験しました。
実際見るととても高くて、始まるまで緊張してましたが、ノリノリのクルーにおだてられあっという間に浮いていました☆
スマホを預けて撮影もして貰えましたし、落とさないように気をつければ上空からの、撮影も出来ます☆
またハワイに行ったら絶対行きます٩( ᐛ )و

I was able to fly without any unnecessary waiting time.

I flew at 120 meters, and the view was absolutely stunning. It was thrilling when the wind picked up along the way.

Thank you very much.

すごくさくっと無駄な待機時間なども無く飛ぶことが出来ました。

120mで飛びましたがとても高く絶景でした。
途中風が吹くとスリリングな感じで楽しめました。

ありがとうございました。

Awesome, took my wife for Valentines Day. She was totally impressed. Would certainly see again.

I had a great time. The scenery was very beautiful, and I didn't feel the height too much. Next time I participate, I would like to try the 150 meters.

I really had fun.

とても楽しかったです。
景色もとても綺麗で、高さもそんなに感じられず、次回参加する時は150メートルを参加してみたいです。

本当に楽しかったです。

The tour was conducted entirely in English, and there were no Japanese participants. The tour guide was cheerful and entertaining, and when I requested the $30 photo service, I was satisfied with the many great photos I received. When you're floating in the air, if you think about it and look down, it's 120 meters! That suddenly makes you feel scared (laughs). I took motion sickness medication, so I had no problems at all, but since the boat sways quite a bit, it seems wise to take precautions.

オール英語でのツアーで、参加客も日本人はいませんでした。ツアーの方は明るく楽しませてくれる方で、写真の30ドルのサービスをお願いしたらなかなかいい写真がたくさん入ってて満足しました。空に浮いてるときは、よく考えると下を見ると120メートルなのか！と思うと急に怖くなります（笑）。私は酔い止めを飲んだので全く問題ありませんでしたが船が結構揺れるので対策したほうがよさそうですね。

It was a domestic flight, and although my ride was waiting for me, the car took a while to arrive. I had to wait for about 20 minutes as they went to pick up other passengers at a different terminal.

国内線でしたが、迎えは待っていてくれましたが、
そこから車がなかなか来ず。別ターミナルに他のお客さんを迎えに行きまたされ20分ぐらいは待ちました。

We took a boat with about six groups out to sea. Our group was entirely Japanese, and there were many couples. Tours and events in Hawaii, including parasailing, are affected by the weather, but I was lucky to have clear skies during my visit. The photos for parasailing are taken by a local person on the boat with a professional camera (for $30). I simply handed my smartphone and waterproof camera to the people in front and behind me to take pictures.

It felt like the time spent parasailing was longer in proportion to the height. I chose to go up to 120 meters. It was very pleasant. Unlike in Okinawa, here you can see the blue ocean on one side and the hotels lined up on the land on the other, offering a view that you can only see here.

Overall, it was fantastic.

6組ほどを乗せて船で海上に行きます。
自分たちのグループは日本人ばかりで、カップルが多かったです。
パラセーリング含め、ハワイでのツアーやイベントは天候に左右されますが、私の時は運良く快晴でした。
パラセーリングの写真は、船に同乗している現地の人が一眼カメラで撮ってくれます(30ドル)。
私は、普通に自分の前後の順番の人にスマホや防水カメラを渡して撮ってもらいました。

高さに比例して、パラセーリングしている時間が長かったような気がします。
私は、高さは120メートルを選択しました。
とても気持ちよかったです。
沖縄でするのと違って、かたや青い海、かたやホテルが立ち並ぶ陸を見ることができ、ここでしか見られない光景を見ることができます。

とりあえず最高でした。

Had such an amazing time! Got to see lots of fish & sea turtles, even got to hold an octopus. The crew members were very helpful & very nice. Best snorkeling adventure! Would recommend to everyone!!

The Luau was very nice, good food, exciting, and romantic. My husband and I really hate buffets because people like putting their hands directly into the food. Which is totally gross but all luaus are buffets. Even though it was against our norm friends advised us when going to Hawaii it was one thing we just had to do. We decided to try it even though we are super against buffets. I must say we were wrong and we were totally glad we went to this one. We reserved it on my birthday evening and it was really romantic. It was on a roof top so you could see the beach and sun setting, the food was really good, the staff, dancers, entertainment were great and kept our attention. Everyone was so friendly and staff was very attentive. It was the most exciting, fun, and romantic birthday I ever had. I must add not one person placed their dirty little paws in the food which was a big relief for us.

Thank you all for making it the most remarkable and memorable birthday ever.

We loved everything. I am the biggest water and animal lover. The submarine was a great experience for us. Even though the reefs are all gone and they had boats, plans, and different materials placed as artificial reefs it just shows you how important our reefs are for sea life. It is a great learning experience to see the difference. How life is under water now after the way man has destroyed it and the ones who care enough to try to recover a small percent of what it would be if it had been left alone before people destroyed an environment for there own selfish reasons. Before booking I did read reviews of others who experienced the submarine tour before I decided to reserve our tour. Even though a lot of people stated they expected more and only gave it 1 and 2 stars I still decided to take the tour. I read Atlantis used partial of the proceeds to rebuild the reefs. If more people got together and helped rebuild what we all have destroyed then maybe there will be more fish and more variety everytime we come back. People should respect the homes of others, where animals live, and give to it instead of always taking. It was a great experience, it taught us to respect the beautiful nature in our world, to help rebuild, and stop destroying before there is nothing left to experience.

I was blessed with good weather and enjoyed a very pleasant flight. I could ask other guests to take photos for me, or I could request the staff to do so. Additionally, for $30, they offer a 4GB SD card and will take pictures with a staff DSLR. I had no particular issues and was very satisfied with the smoothness of the activity.

良い天気にも恵まれ、大変心地よい空の旅を楽しめました。カメラは他のお客さんに頼むことも出来れば、スタッフの方にお願いすることもでき、また30ドル払えば4GBのSDカード付でスタッフの一眼レフで撮影をしてくれます。特に困る事も無く、大変スムーズなアクティビティで満足しています。

I was overall satisfied with the service and the shuttle, but I felt that it was a bit inflexible since it was stated that the voucher needed to be printed out. (I was already staying in Honolulu and made the reservation there. I asked the hotel front desk to print out the voucher for me.) The arrival of the shuttle bus was prompt, and I was very satisfied, so I wanted to give it five stars, but due to the voucher issue, I will give it four stars. This is just my personal opinion for your reference.

サービス、送迎について全体的に満足でしたが、バウチャーがプリントアウトしてどうしても必要と記載がありましたため、個人的には少し融通がきかないなと思いました。（既にホノルルに滞在していて、予約はホノルルでしました。ホテルのフロントにお願いし、バウチャーをプリントアウトしてもらいましたので）送迎のバスの到着も早く、とても満足してましたので星５つとしたかったのですが、バウチャーの件があり、星４つとさせて頂きます。これはあくまでも個人的な主観ですので、ご参考までに。
