All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

This was my first trip to Hawaii. Although I had a standard seat, it was close enough to the stage and very impressive. There were scenes where guests could participate, which was a lot of fun and gave me a sense of being in a foreign country. To be honest, the food was a bit disappointing, so I think it's better to consider meals separately. Also, since there is no shade, some seats are exposed to the blazing sun even in the evening. Hats and sunglasses are a must!

初めてのハワイ旅行です。スタンダードシートでしたが舞台には十分近く、迫力満点でした。ゲスト参加のシーンもあり、非常に楽しく、異国感を味わえました(=´∀｀)人(´∀｀=)食事は正直微妙でした、、食事は別で考えたほうがいいと思います。また、日除けがないため、夕方ですが席によっては炎天下に暫しさらされます。帽子やサングラスなど必須です☆

We visited Hawaii for our honeymoon and participated in parasailing. We were blessed with great weather, and the view from 150 meters was truly spectacular!! However, I felt a bit nauseous from the irregular swaying caused by the wind while parasailing (laughs). I didn't feel sick at all on the boat, but if you're prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to take some anti-nausea medication for peace of mind.

新婚旅行でハワイに訪れ、参加しました。お天気にも恵まれ、150mから見る景色はまさに絶景！！ただ、風に左右に不規則に煽られたからか、少しパラセーリング酔いを起こしました（笑）船では全く酔わなかったのに、、酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んだ方が気持ち的に安心かもしれません。

It was my first time surfing, and it was in English... I was surprised because I didn't realize that when I signed up. Surfing itself was fun and went by in no time! However, it didn't feel very beginner-friendly.

Also, I wasn't sure if there was a return shuttle, and it felt like I was reluctantly given a ride back, which I didn't like.

Thank you very much!☆

初めてのサーフィンで、しかも英語…
申込みの時に気付かなかったのでびっくりしました。
サーフィン自体は楽しくてあっという間！
ただ、初心者向けではない感じでした。

あと帰りの送迎があるのかないのかわからず、いやいや送って貰った感じでいやでした。

ありがとーございました☆

Great time !! Would do it again . My family and I all enjoyed. The crew was awesome!!!

This was my first time participating in the sunset cruise, and I thoroughly enjoyed the bright smiles of the crew and the wonderful music. I was able to fully enjoy the waters of Hawaii, and the weather was great with calm waves! The cruise lasted longer than I expected, and we went close to Diamond Head, which made me very satisfied for the price! Out at sea, we sailed with the wind and were able to see a beautiful sunset on the way back. It was amazing!

今回、
初めてこのサンセットクルーズに参加しましたが、クルーの人達の明るい笑顔や素敵な音楽の中、
ハワイの海も満喫し、お天気にも恵まれ波もきつくなく楽しめました！思ったより、時間も長くダイアモンドヘッドの近くまでいき、この値段で大満足しました！沖では、帆をはり風にのりセイリングして帰りに綺麗なサンセットが見れました。最高でした！

Highly recommended, fun and friendly coaching. Worth trying.

I participated with a friend at a height of 120m. The entire group was made up of foreigners (including families) who had great energy, and combined with the cheerful background music, the atmosphere was fun from departure to the end. Even though the waves may seem calm at first glance, the speed picks up significantly as we head offshore, so motion sickness medication is a must. We enjoyed about 8 minutes in pairs, but there is a wait time until it's your turn for parasailing. During the flight, there are sudden ups and downs that keep it exciting, and you might get dropped into the sea a couple of times. Japanese is only understood for the explanation of photo sales and shooting, but the staff is very attentive. There is storage space under the seats for your belongings, so you can bring them on board. Don't forget sunscreen and hydration! It was so much fun that I definitely want to participate again next time.

友人と高さ120mで参加しました。同グループは全員外国人（家族連れ含む）でノリが良く、陽気なBGMも相まって出港から終始楽しい雰囲気です。一見穏やかに見える波でも、ガンガン速度を上げて沖合に向かうので酔い止めは必須です。2人1組で8分ほど楽しむため、パラセイリングの順番が回ってくるまでは待ち時間があります。飛行中は急なアップダウンで楽しませてくれますし、海に2、3回落とされることもあります。日本語は写真販売・撮影の説明程度しか通じませんが、スタッフはよく気にかけてくれます。荷物は座席の下に収納箇所があるので、持ちこんで乗れます。日焼け止めはもちろん、水分補給はも忘れずに！とっても楽しかったので、次回もぜひ参加したいです。

This is the third time I have been on the Maitai Catamaran Sunset Cocktail and Friday Fireworks sail. It's a great way to see the Hilton Hotel Fireworks and Honolulu skyline. Great crew.

We had a great time on the cruise right after our arrival! It was quite windy that day, so there were waves, making it very exciting and fun. If you're dressed to get wet, you'll enjoy it even more at the net at the front of the yacht! Also, when boarding, you take off your shoes and toss them into a box, so I was worried about losing them, but it was fine. Next time, I’ll bring a bag that can hold my shoes!

到着日早々にクルーズで盛り上がりました！ 風が結構ある日だったので、波があり、とってもエキサイティングで楽しかったです。 濡れても良い格好だったら、ヨットの先端の網のところでより楽しめます！
あと、乗船する時、靴を脱いで１つの箱にバッサッと入れるので、靴が無くなったらどうしようと心配でしたが大丈夫でした。が、次の時は、靴が入るカバンを持って行こう〜。

My group consisted of a party of 6 prepaid guests. 4 riders and 2 observers. I was surprised and disappointed when one of the female staff convinced us that one of our observers should not attempt to get into the boat and in fact went out of her way to tell her she should not go. She went back to the car to wait for us and we were all extremely disappointed when we saw that you could step right in and out of the boat. The parasailing experience was fine. Upon our return the driver of the boat announced that we were going to stop and attempt to help another boater who had gotten stuck during low tide. Definitely a nice gesture on his part but when he had all of the males from our boat climb onto the other boat and stand on the high edge for ballast I felt he went a little too far!! Especially considering one was a 14 year old boy...nothing like opening yourself up to a lawsuit if someone had been hurt!! After 3 failed attempts to dislodge the other boat we were finally returned to the dock. I am all for being a good samaratin but in the future I suggest Hawaiian Parasail return their paying customers to the dock and go back on their own time to rescue boaters.

Maita'i Catamaran is an easy cheap way to enjoy a short sail off the coast of Waikiki. Their location is walkable from just about anywhere in Waikiki (which is only about 1.5 miles from east to west), and my family did a quick 90 minute sail. They allow 0-3 year olds on for free, so for my wife and son and I it was a real bargain.

Most boating trips pad your cost by including free booze (which can make you seasick, or might have disappointingly little effect if you are from higher altitudes), so I was glad to see it sold a la carte here (quite cheaply).

Crew was friendly and approachable, and we got to be on a boat in paradise. They use their motor to get to and from shore efficiently, but most of the time the motor is off and they are just sailing, which is ideal. We saw a dolphin and 2 sea turtles too.

I just feel bad that between making sure my 3-year old got off safely and remembering all of our things I totally forgot to tip them. Hopefully this review will help. Book them now!

I was worried about seasickness, but I was able to enjoy it without any problems. I was really looking forward to the fireworks that are held every Friday night, and I was very satisfied to be able to watch them from a prime spot.

船酔いが心配でしたが問題なく楽しめました。
毎週金曜日の夜限定花火を楽しみにしていたので特等席で眺める事が出来て大満足です。

Great crew. Great fun and great day! Thank you. Highly recommend. Would do again.

The weather was great, and we caught a lot of fish! They cooked the freshly caught fish deliciously with a secret spice, and I had a wonderful time making great memories with my father. It was also lucky to see wild dolphins. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to do it!

気候が良く、たくさん釣れました！釣りたての魚を、シークレットスパイスで豪快に美味しく調理してくださり、楽しい時間で、父といい思いでができました。野生のイルカが見れたのもラッキーでした。またハワイにいける機会あれば、お願次第です

I made a reservation without any issues for the Hilton dinner cruise, but I realized that I should have checked the reviews before booking. To put it simply, the price for this experience is too high. The boat, the staff, the food, and the Hilton fireworks—everything really is subpar as others have commented. At around $80, I would have found the price acceptable, but at this rate, it’s understandable to call it a rip-off.

ヒルトンのディナークルーズなので、問題なく予約してみましたが、レビューは見てから予約しなければいけないことと思い知りました。一言で申し上げますと、この設定でこの価格は高すぎますね。船、船のスタッフ、食事、ヒルトンの花火、流れ的に他のコメントが本当ですべて三流です。８０ドルくらいなら価格的にも納得ですが、これではボッタクリと言われても仕方ありませんね。

The all-you-can-drink alcohol creates a great atmosphere as the sun gradually begins to set after departure (laughs). If the all-you-can-drink beer were a little better, I would want to repeat this experience over and over again‼️

アルコールが飲み放題で出航からだんだんと陽が沈み始めるからじょじょにいいムードになります（笑）
飲み放題のビールがもう少し美味しければ…何度でもリピートしたいです‼️

I was recommended this by a friend and signed up. It was fun! I was completely satisfied! Along the way, I was able to see dolphins. The view of Waikiki was amazing, and watching the sunset was the best. I will definitely sign up again when I go to Hawaii!

友人にオススメしてもらい、申し込みました。楽しい！大満足！の一言でした。途中、イルカも見ることができました。ワイキキを一望でき、夕日を見られて最高です。またハワイに行く時には申し込みます！

This is my second time boarding. It's worth it just to go out to sea at a reasonable price and see the indescribably beautiful cobalt blue ocean. Of course, the view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from offshore is fantastic. Additionally, it's very convenient to board from the beach next to Sheraton Waikiki Resort.

二回目の乗船になります。リーズナブルな価格で沖へ出て、なんとも表現できないコバルトブルーの美しい海を見るだけでも、十分価値があります。もちろん、沖からのワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドの眺めは最高です。また、シェラトンワイキキリゾート横のビーチから乗船できるのでとても便利です。

The shuttle driver was an expert at driving on tricky roads. It was great having water and a walking stick provided. And of course the scenery and waterfall were breathtaking.

Loved the submarine your. Crew was organized and moved the large crowd well into the submarine. Beautiful fish and turtles were awesome to see!

Three months ago, I saw a catamaran departing from in front of Halekulani and thought I definitely want to ride it next time. After three months back in Hawaii, I made an early reservation with eight friends joining me. Since Japanese-issued credit cards are not accepted on the website, I booked through Veltra. I printed the voucher and will hand it over at the reception.

The sunset cruise gathers at 5:00 PM, but it's dangerous to cross from the Halekulani side due to high tide. Please make sure to go around from the Sheraton side. I've taken motion sickness medication and I'm fully prepared! I also brought a waterproof cover for my smartphone. Unlike a yacht, this boat is stable and won't rock, so even those prone to seasickness will be fine.

Cutting through the refreshing wind is the best! Everyone is feeling cheerful with drinks, singing, and surrounded by joyful laughter as we enjoy the beautiful sunset from the boat. I can't wait to participate again!

3ヶ月前に、ハレクラニの前から出航する双胴船を見て、次回は絶対乗ってみたいと思っていました。
３ヶ月ぶりのハワイ、友人8名の参加予定で早めに予約を入れました。
HPからですと、日本発行のクレジットカードは受け付けていないので、veltraで予約しました。
バウチャーは印刷して、受付に渡します。
サンセットクルーズ5:00集合ですが、ハレクラニ側からですと満ち潮で危なくて渡れません。必ず、シェラトン側から回ってください。
酔い止めは飲んで準備万端です！スマホの防水カバーも用意しました。
ヨットと違い、安定していて揺れませんので船酔いする人も大丈夫です。
爽快に風を切り、最高です！
皆んな、お酒も効いてきて陽気に歌ったり、楽しそうな笑い声に包まれ美しいサンセットを船上から、また参加するしかないでしょう‼︎

The day was overcast all day long, and even after the ship set sail, the sun didn't show its face... Amidst this, two handsome crew members entertained the passengers, including a very friendly and cheerful Carlos, who engaged everyone in conversation, took photos, and showcased steering performances. Even if we couldn't see the sunset, I was already satisfied~~... Just when I thought that, the sunset appeared! It was dramatic, and cheers erupted. Arriving at the beach amidst the beautiful sunset and the cheerful atmosphere with everyone was truly moving. My husband and his 67-year-old sister were really happy with this unique experience. I'm so glad I gifted it to them~

この日は一日中曇天で、船が出港してからも太陽は顔を出さず・・・
その中を2人のハンサムクルーが、乗客を巻き込みながら楽しませてくれました。乗船客のカルロスさんのめちゃめちゃフレンドリーで、陽気なおしゃべりを盛り立てて、写真を撮ったり操舵のパフォーマンスを見せてくれていました。もう、このままサンセットが見れなくても、満足～～～
・・・っと、思ったところにサンセット登場！！劇的で歓声が上がりました。
皆さんとの和気あいあいとした雰囲気の中、サンセットの美しさの感動の中浜に到着でした。
夫と、夫の姉67歳は日頃にない体験に、本当に喜んでくれました。プレゼントしてよかった～

We participated in the 10:30 pickup with two people. We boarded the yacht with 4 to 5 groups of two, waiting our turn while wearing life jackets. Since we were the last in line, we felt a bit nauseous from the yacht's rocking while waiting, but once we took off, it was exhilarating and we felt better immediately. I think those who are prone to motion sickness should take some medication. Surprisingly, it felt so light that it was not scary at all. We even had the chance to look down at a turtle that approached the yacht. We had requested photos for an additional $30, which we received when we got off the yacht.

１０：３０ピックアップの回に２名で参加しました。
ヨットに２名×４～５組で乗り込み、救命胴衣をつけつつ順番を待ちました。
私たちは順番が最後だったので、待っている間にヨットの揺れで少し気分が悪くなりましたが、
飛んだら爽快で、すくに治りました。弱い方は酔い止めを飲まれたほうが良いと思います。
予想外にふわっと浮くのでまったく怖くありませんでした。たまたま、ヨットに近づいてきたカメを上から眺めることもできました。
＋３０＄だかで写真をお願いしていましたので、ヨットを降りるときにいただきました。

It was such a sight to see. The two men were very polite and helpful. I would definitely recommend this to my friends.

This was my third time in Hawaii, and my first cruise! Before we set sail, we encountered big waves and got completely soaked (~_~;). However, there’s no cruise as fun as this one! The breeze on the yacht was pleasant, the sunset was beautiful, and we even saw a rainbow. I will definitely join again next time! (^o^)/

ハワイ3回目で初めてののクルーズ❗️出航前に大波に会いずぶ濡れ(~_~;)しかし、こんな楽しいクルーズは、無いな〜〜‼️ヨットの、風が心地良く夕日はも素敵だったしレインボーも見れて、絶対に又次回参加しまーす(^o^)/

My family and I could not have been any happier with the level of service and quality of excellence this adventure provided us! All the staff were friendly(especially our driver) and professional which made parasailing even better. We did the 300ft line and next time we are going all the way to 1000! Thanks so much and we definitely recommend them for any future parasailing trips you may have.

Group of people 69-86 years went out to do this and because a handful felt waters was not calm elected not to do this. I was notwith them but had done it in the past and found it to be enjoyable

For my first activity in Hawaii, I booked parasailing, and during the transfer, I had a cheerful driver who made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. The parasailing was fantastic as well; I was lifted very high, and the view was absolutely beautiful.

初めてのハワイでのアクティビティとして、パラセイリングを予約させていただきましたが、送迎時には陽気なドライバーで終始楽しくさせていただき、パラセイリングについても、とても高く上げていただき、景色がとてもよかったです。

The seats inside the submarine were spacious, and I was able to see the underwater scenery through the large windows. The underwater world was darker than I had imagined, and I felt that we were diving deep. I learned that sunken ships and airplanes have become homes for fish, and that marine life is being protected. While I understand that there may be limitations for environmental protection, I think I would have been even more impressed if the underwater and seabed views were clearer.

潜水艦内の座席はゆったりしており、大きな窓からか海中の様子を見ることができました。想像していたより海中は薄暗く、深く潜水しているのだと感じました。沈められた船や飛行機が魚の住み家になり、海の生物が守られていること学びました。環境保護のためにできないかも知れませんが、もう少し海中・海底がはっきり見えると何倍も感動できただろうと思います。

Had a wonderful time. Got to check-in early and was offered an earlier eight AM ride as they held the boat for us. Turned out to be a blessing as there was fewer patrons and more windows. Guide was friendly and extremely entertaining. A must for anyone visiting the island for something very different.
