All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

I booked a 150m parasailing experience with my husband. It was high and a bit scary, but more than that, we were able to enjoy the wonderful views and the thrill of the attraction. We had a 9 AM reservation and were picked up at our hotel at 8:30 AM (right on time), and we boarded the boat at the port with hardly any wait. Besides us, there were three Japanese girls, a French couple, and one American man, making a total of four groups. We took turns flying and returned to the port around 10 AM.

They took many photos for $30. I usually don’t order paid photos while traveling, but this time I decided to because they captured angles I couldn’t get myself. My husband brought a GoPro, so we were able to get some immersive footage from the air. If you have one, I recommend bringing it, but be careful not to drop it.

This optional tour isn’t necessarily cheap when you consider the time, but on the other hand, it wraps up in half a day, making it easy to incorporate a fun experience into your trip. When I went to Hawaii last time, I did the Heaven's Sea Tour (sandbar), but thinking about how you might not get the satisfaction you want unless you go at the best timing, like during low tide, I highly recommend parasailing.

主人と１５０ｍのパラセイリングを申し込みました。高くて怖さもありましたが、それ以上に素晴らしい景色とアトラクション感でとても楽しむことができました。
９時の予約で８時半に宿泊ホテルでピックアップ（時間どおりでした）してもらい、港に着いてほとんど待つことなく乗船しました。私たちの他には３人組の日本人の女の子、フランス人カップル、アメリカ人男性１人の４組でした。順番に飛んで港に戻ったのは１０時過ぎだったと思います。
３０ドルで写真もたくさん撮ってくれました。いつも旅先の有料写真は注文しませんが、今回は自分では撮れない角度からの写真なので頼みました。主人がＧｏＰｒｏを持って行ったので空中からの臨場感あふれる映像も撮れました。落とさないように注意が必要ですが持っている方は持参をおすすめします。
このオプショナルツアーは時間換算すると決して安いものではありませんが、逆に半日で終わるので楽しい体験を気軽に旅行に組み込めるのでとてもいいと思います。前回ハワイに行ったときに天国の海ツアー（サンドバー）に行きましたが、干潮など時期的にベストタイミングで行かないと思うような満足感が得られないことを思うとパラセイリングはとてもおすすめです。

Last time, I couldn't board because I didn't make a reservation, so this time I booked in Japan.

On the day of the cruise, it coincided with the last day of the Honolulu Festival (fireworks festival), and I received a notice that the cruise would be temporarily canceled. However, it changed to a notice saying that there would be restrictions on the roads due to the festival, so please be careful... What a relief...

Finally, the long-awaited cruise! From the commemorative photo before boarding to spotting whales during the voyage, it was thrilling... Above all, the open bar was the best. The homemade Mai Tai was amazing!! The MC was fantastic too!!

I felt that wearing clothes that could get wet and, depending on the season, a windbreaker was necessary. The person next to me looked super cold in a T-shirt and hot pants...

I definitely think it will be a memorable experience...

I highly recommend it.

前回は予約せずに行ったので乗船出来ませんでしたので、今回は日本で
予約をしました。

当日はホノルルフェスティバルの最終日（花火大会）と重なり
一時クルージングが中止になると連絡が有ったが、中止ではなく
フェスティバルで道など規制があるので注意して下さいとの連絡に
変わりました。。。。一安心・・・・

それで待ちにまったクルージングですが、乗船前の記念写真から
航海中、鯨も偶然見られ感激。。。。
何よりオープンバーが最高でした。
自家製マイタイも最高！！
ＭＣも最高！！

濡れても良い服装と時期によってはウィンドブレーカが必要と感じました。
隣の方はＴシャツにホットパンツで超寒そうでした。。。

絶対に記念になると思います。。

お勧めします。

This was my fourth time in Hawaii, and having previously experienced sunset dinner cruises like the Star of Honolulu, I wanted to enjoy the sunset in a different way, so I joined this course. Fortunately, the weather was great, and I was able to enjoy a beautiful sunset. Unlike the dinner cruises, this experience had a wild feel to it, allowing me to fully enjoy the sense of being abroad. However, everything from the reception to the staff guidance on board was in English, and the ratio of Western guests was quite high, so the way the atmosphere built up on the ship was different from what I'm used to as a Japanese person, which made me feel a bit out of place. Nevertheless, I had a great time overall! I highly recommend it.

4度目のハワイで、過去にスターオブホノルルなどのサンセットディナークルーズも体験しましたので、何か違う方法でサンセットを楽しみたいと思い
このコースに参加しました。幸いお天気にも恵まれてとてもきれいな夕日も楽しめました。ディナークルーズとは違い、ワイルドな感じでより外国に来た感を満喫できました。ただし、受付、船上でのスタッフの案内もすべて英語、乗船客も欧米の方の比率がとても高く、船上での盛り上がり方が日本人とは違うので少々ノリについていけないというか、アウウェイ感は高いです。
しかし、それも含めてとても楽しめました！おススメです。

The tour started at 3 PM. There is a restaurant next to the meeting place for the tour on the beach at Hilton Hawaiian Village, so we took our time having lunch there before joining the tour.

I had some concerns because I heard there was bad weather until the day before, and it was an afternoon tour, but those worries were unnecessary as we were able to see a lot of fish.

午後3時からのツアーでした。
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジのビーチ内、ツアー集合場所横にレストランがあるので、そこでゆっくり昼食をとってから参加しました。

前日まで荒天だったと聞くし、午後のツアーだし、と少し心配していましたが、そんな心配は無用で、たくさんの魚たちに会うことができました。

This tour includes a full course with a VIP backyard plan. The participation card gives a special feeling, and we had photo opportunities with stars and champagne. The guide was very enthusiastic and made the tour enjoyable while we explored the backyard! They were also proactive in taking photos in front of the headpieces and instruments. After finishing the tour, we went to the venue, where our seats were right at the front of the central stage. Depending on the number of participants, I think VIP courses usually have front-row seats. The content of the show was also very satisfying! Elvis and Michael were the main acts, and the quality of each was high! I believe the song choices were mostly familiar, and the female singer's performances in between featured famous sounds, which made me feel like I was in Hawaii. The scale of the show has a luxurious private atmosphere! I recommend it for any part of your Hawaii trip—at the beginning, during, or at the end! The course meal and alcohol exceeded expectations! The Blue Hawaii and strawberry cocktails were delicious!

My husband and I parasailed once before but for my 21-yr-old daughter, this was her first time. We all had a blast. Our crew made everyone feel at ease and made the experience even more fun with their enthusiasm. Would recommend to everyone looking for a great adventure.

It was my first experience with a 150m parasailing, and although I was anxious, it felt amazing and the view was fantastic. Diamond Head was even more impressive from above than from the ground.

150mパラセイルにはじめての体験でしたが、不安だったですが、とても気持ち良く景色も最高で、地上からよりもダイアモンドヘッドが感動的でした。

We participated as a family of four: a couple in their early 30s and their parents in their late 50s and 60s. The shop is located on the Diamond Head side, within walking distance from the main hotels in Waikiki, but since we weren't sure about the distance until we actually went to Waikiki, we opted for the shuttle service. We rented rash guards and aqua shoes at the shop. It was a group lesson, but during our time slot, there were only five of us: our family and one other Korean woman in her 30s, with two staff members assisting us. We learned how to ride the waves while watching a video in the shop. After that, we moved to the beach and practiced the motions of riding the waves on the sand multiple times together. Then it was time to hit the ocean! Paddling was really tough, but both my mother and I managed to get out. The waves in Waikiki in March were quite gentle, suitable for beginners. In the summer, the waves get bigger, so it's advised not to go too far out. Because the waves were calm, it seemed impossible to ride them without paddling strongly, and when the waves came, the staff would give us a push. That helped us catch the waves! My husband and I were able to stand on the board for about five times, quite long. My mother, in her late 50s, also tried to stand several times and fell off the board, but she managed to stand for two longer periods and seemed to have a lot of fun! I wore contact lenses, and there were no issues at all. About ten years ago, I tried surfing a little at Kujukuri in Chiba, and I felt it was very painful to fall into the sea there because it was so beautiful, but here, it was not painful at all. The two staff members who accompanied us were very friendly. Once you can stand, it really feels refreshing!

30代前半の夫婦、とその両親(50代後半、60代)の家族4人で参加しました。ショップはワイキキの主要ホテルよりもダイヤモンドヘッド側で、徒歩圏内なのですが、実際にワイキキに行ってみるまで距離感覚がわからなかったため、送迎ありで利用しました。ショップでラッシュガードとアクアシューズを借ります。グループレッスンだったのですが、私たちの時間帯は、私たち家族ともう一人30代の韓国人女性のみの計5人にスタッフの方が2人ついてくれました。ショップ内でビデオを見ながら、波の乗り方を学びます。その後、ビーチへ移動し、砂浜でボードの上で実際に波に乗る動作を何回もみんなで反復します。そしていざ海へ！パドリングが本当にきつかった、、、ですが、私も母もなんとか沖へ。3月のワイキキの波はかなり穏やかで、「初心者向けの波」のようです。夏になるともっと波が大きくなるため、あまり沖には出ないようです。波が穏やかなため、自力で波に乗るには、かなり強くパドリングしないと無理なようで、波がくるとスタッフの方が押してくれます。それで波に乗れます！私たち夫婦は5回くらい、かなり長くボードの上に立つことができました。50代後半の母も何回か立てそうになりながらもボードから落ちていましたが、2回長く立つことができ、とても楽しかったようです！コンタクト装着していますが、全然問題ありませんでした。10年ほど前、千葉の九十九里で少しだけサーフィンをしてみたことがあるのですが、海がとても綺麗なので(?)、九十九里の時はボードから海に落ちるととても苦しいと感じたのですが笑、全く苦しくなかったです。同行してくれたスタッフ2人の方々はとてもフレンドリーでした。立つことができると、本当に気分爽快です！

I participated with my husband on our honeymoon. After getting on the pickup car at the hotel, we took a small boat at the dock. It was quite fast, and it was thrilling and fun. Once we went a bit offshore, we finally started parasailing! The weather was very nice that day, and although I was scared at first, I was moved by the beautiful scenery we could see! I was very satisfied and truly glad we participated.

ハネムーンで夫と二人で参加しました。
ホテルにてピックアップの車に乗ったあと、船着き場にて小型ボートに乗ります。
結構なスピードでこれもスリル満点で楽しかったです。
少し沖に行った辺りでいよいよパラセーリング開始です！
この日は天候がとても良く、最初は怖かったものの、とても美しい景色を見ることができて感動しました！
とても大満足で、本当に参加してよかったです。

I had a great time. I was a bit anxious due to the lack of detailed explanations regarding safety, but once I experienced it, the scenery was beautiful, and I enjoyed it. If I had to mention something, during the latter part of the parasailing, some groups touched the seawater upon landing, so it's best to prepare for the cold. Also, it's advisable to use the restroom beforehand.

十二分に楽しめました。安全に関する部分の細かい説明が少なかったので少し不安でしたがいざ体験してみると景色も良くて良かったです。強いて言うならパラセーリング中の後半、着陸時にグループによっては海の中の海水に触れているグループがあったので寒さ対策はしっかりしておいた方が良いのとトイレは事前に済ましておいた方がいいです。

I do this each time i arrive to Hawaii, get a nice deep tissue massage. Second time going back to this place and are very delicate on approach of doing things; for you! Which is should be, especially when you should be relax and feel better. They do just that and why i would go back again and again. Yes it is pretty penny to pay, but the cost doesn't outweigh the experience of physically in Hawaii and now feeling the trip is off a on great start!
Its down the street from my hotel.

This parasailing experience was my second time as a repeat visitor. Last time, I had so much fun and felt a thrill and refreshment that I wanted to try it again when I visited Hawaii. This time, perhaps because there were two fewer groups than last time, it felt like we were able to fly for a longer time. Also, since there wasn't much wind last time, I was desperately clinging to the railing to avoid falling while the yacht was flying quite a bit, but this time, the wind was just right, and I was able to ride calmly on the yacht, which was comfortable. The crew was also very fun and lively, making for a truly enjoyable time. The shuttle driver was very nice this time as well, engaging in fun conversation and even treating us to drinks on the way back. For my third time, I will try the 150 meters.

このパラセーリングは、リピーターで二度目です。
前回、とても楽しくスリルと爽快感を味わえたので、ハワイに行くならまたトライしたいと思っていました。
今回は、前回より二組分少なかったせいか、長い時間飛ぶことができたように思います。
また、前回は風があまりなかったため、ヨットをかなり飛ばしていたので、落ちないように手すりにしがみつき必死でしたが、今回は風もほどよくあったのか、ヨットでも落ち着いて乗っていることができ、快適でした。
クルーの方も、とても楽しく盛り上げてくださったので、本当に楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来ました。
送迎の方も今回はとても良い方で、楽しくお話をして盛り上げてくれ、帰りにはドリンクまでごちそうしてくれました。
三回目は、150ｍをトライさせていただきます。

I had a fear of heights, but I decided to challenge myself!
It wasn't scary at all!
The ocean was beautiful, and the view was amazing!
I would love to do it again if I have the chance!
I just want to be careful about seasickness!

高所恐怖症でしたが、挑戦してみました！
全然怖くなかったです！
とにかく海が綺麗で、景色が最高でした！
また機会があればやりたいです！
ただ船酔いは、気をつけたいです！

My husband and I participated in a 150-meter parasailing experience. It was my second time parasailing, but the last time I did it at another place, it was only about 60 meters, so I thought I’d challenge myself and go for the highest one!

There was only one other couple, a Japanese couple, besides us, so the announcements regarding safety precautions were made in Japanese.

The weather was a bit bad that day, with light rain and wind, which made it quite shaky when we were up in the air, and it was a little scary, but the view was amazing and felt great!

Last time, there were many participants, and we came down quickly once we reached the top, but this time, since there were only two couples, we were able to stay up for a much longer time!

When we came down, our feet just touched the water, but it was a bit cold.

主人と二人で150メートルのパラセイルに参加しました。パラセイルは2回目でしたが、前回は他のとこで確か60メートルくらいのやつだったので、せっかくなら、と一番高いやつに挑戦しました！
参加者は、私たちの他にもう一組日本人のカップルだけだったので、注意事項などのアナウンスは日本語が流れていました。
この日は少し天気が悪く、小雨と風で上空にいるときは、なかなかの揺れで少し怖かったけど、とてもいい眺めで気持ちよかったです！
前回は参加者が多くトップまでいったらすぐ降りてきてたのですが、今回は二組だけだったせいか、とても長い時間飛ばしてもらえました！
降りてきてくるときに足だけ海にポチャンと着水してもらいましたが、少し寒かったです。

My husband and I participated in a semi-private stand-up paddle lesson. We were lucky because there were no other participants, so it was just the two of us! Our instructor was someone who had taught English in Japan, and the lesson was easy to understand as it included some simple Japanese. We learned how to paddle on the beach and quickly went into the sea, focusing mostly on practical experience, which was a lot of fun!

Before we started, I was more nervous than my husband, but in the end, I enjoyed it more than he did! (laughs) The instructor didn't stay right next to us the whole time; he was close at first but then let us enjoy ourselves freely! Another staff member took photos and videos for us, and although I hadn't planned to buy any, there were so many great pictures that I ended up purchasing a few as keepsakes! (laughs)

I only brought enough money for tips, but when I asked, they gave me a voucher, so I could buy them later with a credit card. It was great that I could receive the data on a USB.

Also, March was colder than I expected, so even wearing a long-sleeve rash guard, I felt cold. I'm glad I didn't fall into the sea. My husband, who wore a short-sleeve shirt, fell a few times and said it was very cold.

主人と二人でスタンドアップパドルのセミプライベートレッスンに参加しました。他に参加者はいなく、私たちだけのレッスンとなりラッキーでした！日本で英語の先生をしていた方が私たちの先生で、簡単な日本語を交えながらのレッスンだったのでわかりやすかったです。浜辺で乗り方を教わり、すぐに海に入りほとんどが実践という感じで、とても楽しかったです！
やる前は、主人よりも私の方がビビっていたのですが、結果、私の方が楽しんでしまいました！(笑)
先生もずーっと横についているわけでもなく、最初だけ近くにいてくれましたがほとんど自由に楽しめました！別のスタッフが写真や動画も撮ってくれていて、買うつもりはなかったけど、とてもいい写真が多く記念に写真だけ買いました(笑)
お金もチップ分しか持ってきていなかったので、聞いたら引き換えの紙を渡され、後からでもクレジットカードで買えました。データをUSBでもらえるのでよかったです。
あと、3月は思った以上に寒かったので、長袖のラッシュガード着てても寒かったです。海に落ちなくてよかったです。主人は半袖で何度か落ちてとても寒かったと言っていました。

I had a great time.
I think first-time visitors to Hawaii should definitely check it out.
Personally, I was captivated by the dancers♪
It was full of fun, so I highly recommend it to everyone!

楽しく過ごせました。
初めてハワイに行かれる方は
見ておいた方が良いと思いますよー。
個人的にはダンサーの方々に目を奪われてました♪
遊び心満載でしたので皆様も是非是非w

Surfing itself was as enjoyable as I had expected. I was hoping for a photo shoot, but there was no information about it, so I thought it would be nice to have some guidance.

サーフィン自体は思っていた通りで楽しかったです。
撮影を希望していたのですが、
撮影案内などがなく、案内があればいいなと思いました

So it all started with a super welcoming crew. The captain and both the deckhands were extremely courteous and expressed the spirit of Aloha in welcoming us aboard! Next came an explanation of what the trip would consist of, and I was like, oh yeah, this is gonna be a hoot and a half. Then we were underway on Diesel engines that sounded like the sweet purr of freedom you could only get on the open ocean. We headed out to the turtle cleaning reef, and we were not disappointed. They promised a great snorkel experience and they delivered! We jumped in the water after the best explanation of our safety and snorkel equipment and were immediately greeted by the ocean wildlife! Turtle the size of Kia souls cut in half with flippers! It was incredible. After we had our feel of the little mermaid experience, it was back to the boat where we were served libations by barista/deckhand that could rival those of a well seasoned bar! Drinks were flowing like the rays of sunshine beating down on us. We dropped sail, and cruises on the wind like seagulls on the breeze. It was a glorious experience that I will remember for years to come. When all was said and down, the sails returned to their stowed position, we sailed back to shore on those sweet Diesel engines and touched down gently on the sands of Waikiki. Your crew and company will hold a special place in our hearts as we carry the memories of good times with us. We found our beach!

This tour was everything I'd hope it would be. I went out with a group of 6 six friends to celebrate my birthday. This was perfect. Great snorkeling and absolutely beautiful views. The tour included three drinks as well. Main Tai's and Coronas were offered free of charge.
I made a great decision coming on this tour. My only wish is that it lasted longer.

We had the most fun time on the boat. The water of Waikiki can’t be explained. The staff was very friendly, as they say with a lot of “aloha spirit”. Great music and it’s open bar, you can’t go wrong with any of that. Music was on point, and the whales decided to give us a show as well. Hands down, the best activity in Hawaii, so worthy!!!

I participated in the morning session and chose the 90m option. There were three groups, including us, totaling seven people. The "m" likely refers to the length of the rope, and at 90m, it felt like there was no slack in the rope, making it rise quite high. The 150m option seemed to have a bit of slack, so it didn't look like it was going as high. If it's your first time, I think the 90m option is sufficient since the price is also lower.

It would be nice to have a waterproof phone case that you can hang around your neck to take photos from above. I'm worried about dropping a selfie stick. I wasn't sure about the tipping standard, so I gave $20 each to the two instructors, but it seems that wasn't necessary. They took about 112 photos for us. You can decide whether to purchase them after looking at the photos.

朝イチの参加で90mにしました。
私達を含め３組7人でした。
mは恐らく紐の長さなので、90mだと紐のたるむ部分がなくてかなり上まで上がっている気がしました。150mの方は紐が少したるんでそんなに高く上がっているようには見えませんでした。
初めてなら料金も安いし90mで十分だと思います。
首から下げれる防水のスマホケースがあれば上からも写真が撮れていいと思います。自撮り棒は落としそうで怖いです。
チップは相場がわからず、インストラクターの方2人に1人20ドルずつ渡しましたが、そんなに渡さなくて良かったみたいです
写真は112枚ほどとってくれていました。
一応写真を見てから購入するかを決めれます。

This is my third time, and I always enjoy the different content and songs each year. This year, I was moved by the female singer's voice. The fire show was also dynamic and thrilling; it was a lot of fun. Thank you very much.

三回目になりますが、毎年違う内容や歌に楽しませていただいてます。今年は女性の方の歌声に感動しました。火のショーもダイナミックでハラハラドキドキ楽しかったです。
ありがとうございました。

I previously participated in a regular sailing to enjoy the sunset, so this time I signed up because I could see the fireworks on Friday night. Watching the fireworks from the boat was a different experience compared to viewing them from Waikiki Beach, and it was great. There was nothing obstructing the view, so I could see the fireworks clearly from the moment they launched and as they continued to go off one after another.

It was a bit disappointing that we stopped the boat early and stayed in the same spot for quite a long time to watch the fireworks. It gets chilly at night, so bringing a windbreaker was definitely the right choice.

以前は、サンセットを楽しむ通常のセーリングに参加したので、今回は金曜夜の花火が見られるということで申し込みました。
船上からの花火観賞は、ワイキキビーチから見るのとは、また違った感じで良かったです。何も遮るものがないので、花火が上がる瞬間から、次々と打ち上がる様子がよく見えました。
花火を見るため、早めに船を停めて結構長時間同じ場所に留まっていたのが、残念。
夜は冷え込むのでウィンドブレーカーは、持って行って正解でした。

The moment I entered the sea, I encountered a sea turtle! After that, I was lucky enough to see dolphins from the boat! The staff were very kind and made me feel comfortable participating in the tour! ❤︎ I definitely want to use this service again.

海に入った瞬間ウミガメに会えました！
そのあと船からイルカも運良く見ることができました！
スタッフの方もとても優しく接してくれたため安心してツアーに参加できました！❤︎
また是非利用したいと思います。

The fireworks on Friday ended in the blink of an eye, but it was very pleasant to watch and became a great memory. It was fun to enjoy drinks together while being on the yacht.

金曜の花火はあっと言うまに終わりましたがとても心地よく見られて良い思い出になりました。ヨットの中も飲み物を飲みながら皆で盛り上がって楽しかったです

One of the highlights of our trip! Great atmosphere and staff. We had 6 of us ages 22-26 and it was a blast!

The pickup was on time! There was a child who got a bit drunk, but the kind brother took good care of him! The explanations were easy to understand, and he made it fun and exciting, so I would like to participate again!

お迎えも時間通り！
酔った子がいたのですが、ちゃんと見てくれてすごく優しいお兄さんでした！
説明もわかりやすく、楽しく盛り上げてくれたのでまた参加したいと思いました！

I had a reservation starting at 5:00 PM, but for some reason, I was guided to a course starting at 5:30 PM and ended up waiting on the beach for an hour feeling anxious. This year in Hawaii seems to be quite cold, and I think it would be tough without a somewhat thick jacket on the water. In fact, there were people wearing thin down jackets. We wore hoodies, but we ended up putting on the windbreakers we had brought as a backup while on the water. Although you won't get splashed by waves, you do have to enter the water when boarding and disembarking, so if you're wearing long pants or a long skirt, it's better to wear something that can be rolled up to above the knees. The reception and everything else is in English. During our time there, about 80% of the guests were from English-speaking countries, except for six Japanese people and a family of four from Korea. Before boarding, there is a photo service that takes pictures without asking, and after disembarking, you're encouraged to purchase them for around $20. For some reason, even though we had our pictures taken, we ended up with none. The sailing itself was wonderful, and even while enjoying drinks on the water, I didn't feel seasick and had a great time.

17:00からを予約していたのですが、なぜか17:30からのコースを案内され、不安なまま1時間砂浜で待つことになりました。
今年のハワイはかなり寒いようで、海上ではやや厚手の上着がないとつらいと思います。実際、薄手のダウンを着ている人もいました。私たちは、パーカーを着ていましたが予備で持っていたウインドブレーカーを海上では着ていました。波をかぶったりすることはないのですが、乗船と下船には水の中に入るので、長ズボンやロングスカートを着用する場合は、膝上までたくし上げられるものにしたほうがいいと思います。受付その他全て英語対応です。私たちの時は、日本人６人と韓国人家族４人以外の8割方は英語圏の方でした。乗船前に、写真を撮るサービスがあり有無を言わさず撮られ、下船後に20ドルくらいで購入を勧められます。私たちはなぜか撮影したにもかかわらず、写真がないという…。セーリング自体はとても素晴らしく、海上でアルコールを飲みながらでしたが酔うこともなく楽しめました。

I took this tour in March as I wanted to find a tour that would take me snorkeling but not spend a half a day or more doing so. This boat trip was perfect! The catamaran took us just a short ride to swim with turtles. We saw 4 turtles and were able to get super close! Then we took the boat around and saw a TON of dolphins. The crew was awesome and this tour is great if you want a little bit of everything in just 2 hours. I would definitely do it again and highly recommend it!

At first, I thought it wouldn't be much since the price was low, but the crew was great at getting everyone excited. Even though I couldn't speak Japanese, it didn't matter; they worked hard to engage us with gestures. There were many foreigners, but we could all enjoy the experience together. When the fireworks went off, the excitement peaked again.

It was truly fun, and if I come to Hawaii again, I definitely plan to join this again.
