I applied because I thought if I missed this opportunity, I would never get another chance. It's an experience unique to Hawaii.

The location is at the left end of Waikiki (Queens Beach), with a simple lesson on the shore that lasts about five minutes. You paddle out to just before the reef, about 100 meters away. When the waves come, they push you from behind, so as long as you time it right and stand in the middle of the board, it's easy to get up.

In the semi-private lesson, you have one instructor for every two people, so I definitely recommend it for beginners. You also receive a T-shirt or a hat as a gift on your way back.

Paddling became tough for me due to my frozen shoulder, but since they push you, I was able to enjoy it enough.

There are Japanese staff at the shop, so there's no need to worry about language. As mentioned in other reviews, the shuttle service can be a bit loose with timing. The shop is about an 8-minute walk from Moana Surf, so walking there is less frustrating. On the way back, I walked to the supermarket in my swimsuit to do some shopping.

If your hotel is nearby, you won't need to bring your smartphone, towel, or a change of clothes. Just bring about $20 and a few dollars for tips, just in case.

Unfortunately, one-third of the DVD file of the photos I received was broken and wouldn't open.

この機会を逃せばチャンスは二度とないと思い申し込みました。
日本では恥ずかしくて無理でしょう。
ハワイならではの体験です。

場所はワイキキの左端（Queens Beach ）で、
岸辺で５分程の見よう物まねの簡単レッスン。
直ぐに100m先のリーフ手前までパドリング。
波が来たら後から押してくれますので、
タイミングと板の真ん中にさえ乗れば簡単に立てます。

セミプライベートは2人にひとりのインストラクターが付きますので、
初心者は是非セミプライベートをお勧めします。
帰りにTシャツか帽子のプレゼント付きです。

やはり50肩でパドリングが厳しくなりましたが、
押してくれるので充分楽しめました。

店には日本人の方が居ますので言葉の不安は無いです。
送迎は他の書き込みでもありますように、時間はルーズです。
お店がモアナサーフから歩いて8分位ですので、
歩いて行った方がイライラしなくて済みます。
帰りも水着のまま、歩いてスーパーで買物して帰りました。

ホテルが近くなら、スマホもタオルも着替えも入りません。
念のために２０ドルとチップの数ドルだけ持って行って下さい。

残念だったのはもらった写真のDVDファイルの1/3が、
壊れて開きませんでした。

This was my first time in Hawaii, and since I wanted to do some activities by the sea, I joined with four friends. We were picked up on time in the hotel lobby, and during the drive, our cheerful driver kept us entertained with jokes. Upon arriving at the beach, we quickly boarded the boat. The boat was quite rocky. It seemed that the boat ride was more intense than parasailing, giving a floating sensation similar to the drop of a roller coaster. I was fine with the rocking; in fact, I found it enjoyable, but those who are prone to seasickness might want to take medication beforehand or consider opting out.

For parasailing, we flew in pairs. As others had shared, there was no floating sensation while flying, but it felt wonderful to look around at the sea and the cityscape. If I get the chance, I would like to try a higher flight next time. You can request to have photos taken before you fly. After landing, you can purchase a group of photos (1 SD card) for $30 (an additional $5 fee for card payments). When I got home and looked at the photos, there were about 90 pictures, all beautiful, so I definitely recommend buying them!

初めてのハワイ、せっかくなので海でアクティビティをしたいということで、友達4人と参加しました。時間通りにホテルのロビーでピックアップ、車での移動中は愉快なドライバーさんがギャグで盛り上げてくれました。海辺に到着するとすぐ船に乗り移動しました。船はかなり揺れます。パラセイリングよりも船の方が激しいアトラクションのようで、ジェットコースターの落下時のようなふわふわ感がしました。私は揺れは大丈夫、むしろ楽しい感じでしたが、船酔する方は事前に薬を飲んでおくか、辞退された方がいいかもしれません。 パラセイリングは2人ずつ飛びました。ほかの方の体験談通り、飛んでる時はふわふわ感はなく、海と街並みを見回せてとても気持ちが良かったです。機会があったら今度はもっと高い方を挑戦してみたいです。写真は飛ぶ前に頼めば撮って貰えます。降りてから1グループ(1SDカード)で＄30(カード払いだと手数料で＋＄5)で買えます。帰って写真を見てみたら90枚ほど写真が入っていて、素敵な写真ばかりでしたので、買うことを是非お勧めします！

I booked a one-way shuttle service from the hotel to the airport in Japan. Despite the reasonable price, the driver's service on the day was courteous, and there were no delays, which was great. I would like to use it again.

ホテルから空港までの片道の送迎シャトルサービスを日本で予約してりようしました。リーズナブルな価格にもかかわらず、ドライバーの当日の対応が丁寧で、時間の遅れもなくよかったです。また利用したいと思います。

The weather was nice, and I was able to see a sunset that was much more beautiful than from the beach! The original cocktails were delicious too. ☺︎ We went around the back of Diamond Head and watched the sunset while heading back, but the waves were quite strong on the way to Diamond Head, so I didn't have the chance to enjoy my drink or take photos. It might be the season, but it got colder than I expected, so I recommend bringing a light jacket. As mentioned in the reviews, there were few Japanese participants, but that allowed me to fully enjoy the Hawaiian atmosphere! I would love to join again someday. ☺︎

天気が良く、ビーチから見るより何倍も素敵なサンセットを見ることができました！オリジナルカクテルも美味しかったです☺︎
ダイアモンドヘッドの裏の方へ回り、引き返しながらサンセットを見る感じだったのですが、ダイアモンドヘッド方面へ向かう途中波が激しく、ドリンクをゆっくり飲んだり写真を撮る余裕はありませんでした。また時期的になのかも知れないですが、思っていた以上に冷えた為羽織ものを持って行かれることを推奨します。
口コミにもあった通り日本人の参加者は少ないですが、その分ハワイの雰囲気を存分に味わうことができました！いつかまた参加させて頂きます☺︎

Took my son for his 17th birthday to Oahu & took to the sky with this awesome bird's eye experience. I was a bit anxious of how it would feel flying so high since I usually have motion sickness but I did not have any issues doing this activity. Had a great time ... It was simply AWESOME!

Rock-a-hula was awesome! The waitress were very helpful and friendly. During the dinner they entertained us with singing and dancing. The food was great and there were a good selection to choose from. Megan, the waitress was very easy to talk to and did a great job during her performance. All the performers did a great job impersonating each artist. The guy who was doing the fire performance did a awesome job, I thought that was very impressive and entertaining. After all the performance we were able to actually meet and take pictures with the them. My wife and I had a great time during the Rock-a-hula event, I would definitely recommend it to my family and friends as something to experience.

We enjoyed our meal on the terrace, and the roast beef and whole roasted pig were delicious. During the meal, we were entertained with hula dancing and ukulele music. After the meal, we entered the venue, and even though they were impersonators, the quality was so high that it felt like we were watching the real thing. The performers were very engaging, coming down to the floor to interact with the guests, and we got to enjoy songs like Elvis, Michael Jackson, Katy Perry, and "Over the Rainbow," while also learning about the history of Hawaii. They provided entertainment from the meal to the show without missing a beat. This is a must-do. I will definitely book this again for my next trip to Hawaii!

食事はテラスで頂き、ローストビーフや豚の丸焼きなど、おいしかったです。食事中はフラダンスやウクレレで食事中も楽しませて頂きました。食事後に会場内に入り、そっくりさんと言えども、その質の高さは、本物をみているような錯覚すら覚えました。サービス精神旺盛でフロアに降りてきて、客と触れ合い、エルビス、マイケルジャクソン、Katy Perry 、Over the rainbowなどを聞きながらのハワイの歴史にも触れさせて頂きました。食事時からショーまで余すことなく楽しませてくれます。これは、一押しです。次のハワイの時も申し込みます！

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. They wanted to make sure that we enjoyed our show and dinner. Meagan was our favorite waitress she was there at dinner and she participated in the show. She was friendly and pretty. They included artist that included Katy Perry, Micheal Jackson, and Elvis. The artist did good impersonations. The dinner included a choice of pork, chicken, vegetables, starches and a wide variety and foods. The dessert choices included brownies and ice cream. I felt full for days on end. They gave us drink choices. My favorite was Micheal Jackson he was able to sing really well and he looked like he could actually be the Old Micheal.

It was absolutely amazing.
It was a great way to wrap up our graduation trip with friends on the last day.
Unfortunately, it was a bit cloudy that day, but the pleasant atmosphere and the fun of the staff made me forget about that.
I definitely want to use this place again!

とにかく最高でした。
友達との卒業旅行最終日に、良い締めくくりになりました。
あいにくその日は曇り気味でしたが、そんなことは気にならないくらいの気持ちよさと、スタッフさんの楽しさでした。
是非また利用したいです！

I was worried because the driver could hardly speak Japanese, but he was very friendly and interesting to talk to. The parasailing itself was really fun! I also got some great photos, and the SD card was $30! I made the best memories!

運転手さんが日本語がほとんどしゃべれないということで不安だったのですが、
きさくに話してくださってとても面白く、
パラセーリング自体も本当に楽しかったです！！
写真もとってもらえて、SD カードは30ドルでした！
最高の思い出ができました！

It was my first time parasailing. The flow of suddenly putting on a life jacket and being lifted up is very American and nice, but the first person definitely needs some courage. It might be a little scary... Everyone else seemed to be enjoying the parasailing (^｡^)(I was a bit scared and got motion sickness from the swaying in the air).

初めてのパラセイリングでした。いきなりライフジャケットをきて吊るされてgo！の流れがアメリカらしく良いのですが、第1号者の方は勇気が必要です。ちょっと怖いかも。。みんな気持ちよさそうにパラセイリングしていました(^｡^)(私は少し怖かったです。そして、空の揺れに酔いました)

The rock a hula was an amazing show. Everyone in the cast was nice and very friendly. Their performance was outstanding. They were good singers and impersonators of the artists. The food was okay, but the service and entertainment was outstanding. This show is good entertainment for all ages. The time and set up was great. I would strongly recommend this show to anyone visiting the waikiki area.

I experienced this with my 11-year-old daughter! The staff who picked us up were handsome (laughs).

In our group, there were two Japanese families and three foreign families, and everyone was in high spirits, enjoying the boat ride together. The parasailing itself was 110 meters high, but it felt very high, and we were extremely satisfied! My daughter, who was nervous until the splash in the water, was so happy and said she wanted to do it more.

Before the challenge, they asked if we wanted to take optional photos, and since we decided not to, we didn't have any taken. However, they listened to our opinions well, so I felt good about that. My daughter is saying she definitely wants to do it again! I'm also happy because I got to see her beautiful smile, making it a wonderful memory!

11歳の娘と体験しました！
迎えのお兄さんたちがイケメンで（笑）

私たちの体験した回は日本人2組、外国人3組でしたが、みんなノリがよく、ボートみんなでキャーキャーして乗った感じです。
パラセーリング自体も、110メートルでしたがとても高く感じて大満足！
お約束の水バシャーンもやってもらってチャレンジするまでドキドキだった娘はもっとやりたかったー、とものすごく喜んでいました。
チャレンジ前にオプションの写真を撮るか聞かれるので我が家は撮らなくていいと伝えたので撮ってもらっていませんが、意見をしっかりと聞いてくれるのでそこも悪い感じはせず良かったと思います。
娘はまた絶対やりたい！と言ってます♪
私も娘の最高の笑顔が観れたので嬉しい思い出になりました！

our 2nd time..would definitely go again
but preferred the Elvis we seen 3yrs ago

Upon arrival at Honolulu airport, we made our way down to collect our luggage and immediately were met by the Robert's representative. After collecting our luggage,we we were then escorted to the van where Mike was waiting for us. A few minutes later, once the other clients had arrived, we left for the various hotels/condos. Along the way, Mike gave us plenty of information and helpful hints. We arrived at our condo within a very reasonable time frame. The whole process was stress- free and impressive.

We had a fantastic time. The crew were outstanding, very friendly and made the trip a lot of fun. They were approachable and took time to answer any questions we had.
Pretty close to being the highlight of our trip.
Would definitely do it again.

As soon as I exited the airport, I quickly found the location. Taking a taxi can be a hassle because you have to consider the fare and tips, but here the pricing is clear and convenient. At first, I thought about using Uber, but I heard that the available locations at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport are quite limited, so I chose this option, and it was the right decision.

空港の出口を出て、すぐに場所がわかりました。
タクシーだと、料金やチップを考えないといけないから面倒ですが
こちらだと料金が明確で楽です。
最初は、Uberを利用しようかと思っていたのですが、
ダニエル・K・イノウエ国際空港では、利用できる場所が
かなり限られるとのことだったので、
こちらにしたのですが、正解でした。

I was ready to give up on the fire show due to the surprisingly heavy rain, but the MC said, "We can't really do this, but we still want to," and started the show, which made me happy.

Since our seats were indoors and arranged in a way that wasn't around the central stage but rather in a front-to-back order, choosing the diamond seats was the right decision. In my case, I had heard about the bad weather and how easy it is to get lost, so I arrived an hour early and got a good seat. However, even with diamond seats, it's first-come, first-served, so if you want a better seat, it's advisable to arrive early.

The show itself is conducted entirely in English, so it might be better for those who understand a bit of English or can enjoy the atmosphere. My companion wasn't very good at English, but they were really moved by the show!

ビックリするぐらいの雷雨でファイアショーは諦めていたのですがMCの方が「本当はできないけどやっぱりみたいよね」とショーを始めて下さったので私的にはハッピーでした。
席も屋内だったので、中心の舞台を囲むタイプではなく、前から順だったのでダイヤモンドにして正解でした。ただ私の場合、悪天候の事や迷いやすいという話を聞いていたので1時間前から行っていたのでいい席でしたが、いくらダイヤモンドでも早い者順なので、少しでも良い席が良いのなら早めに行くと良いかと…
ショー自体は、終始英語でのMCや案内になるので英語が多少わかるか、雰囲気を楽しめる方の方が良いかも知れないです。
実際に私の連れも英語は苦手でしたが、ショーは凄く感動してくれていたので！

The drinks, sunset, and atmosphere were all amazing! We gathered at the beach adjacent to the hotel at 5 PM, and although we had to wait for about 30 minutes, the meeting spot was easy to find, and we could play on the beach during the wait, so it wasn't a problem at all. Once we got on the boat, even though I'm not very good at English, the staff crew and the other international guests were very friendly, and I felt a sense of unity! When I mentioned I was Japanese, the staff handed me explanations and the drink menu written in Japanese, which I appreciated. I definitely want to participate again when I come to Hawaii!

お酒もサンセットも雰囲気も最高でした！
夕方１７時にホテルに隣接したビーチに集合し、約３０分ほど待機時間がありましたが、集合場所もわかりやすかったし、待ち時間はビーチで遊んでも大丈夫なので、特に問題ありませんでした。
船に乗ってからは私はあまり英語が得意ではないのですが、スタッフクルーや同乗した異国の方がとてもフレンドリーで、一体感を味わえました！
日本人だと伝えると、スタッフの方が日本語で書かれた説明やお酒のメニューなどを渡してくれて、その気遣いも嬉しかったです。
またハワイに来た時も絶対に参加したいです！

They arrived 10 minutes early because it was the first pickup. The car was easy to recognize! We visited six other hotels, so it took some time, but with the tip included, the price was reassuring. I would like to request this service again for one or two people. If there were more than that, I might have chosen Uber or Charlie's Taxi.

1番目のりピックアップだったからか時間10分前に来てくれました。わかり易いクルマです！その他6つのホテル回ったので時間はかかりますが、チップ込みでこの値段なら安心でした。1人、2人までならまたお願いしたいです。それ以上ならUberかチャーリーズタクシーにしたかも。

On our last night in Hawaii, my mother and I participated for the first time.
We started with a buffet on the terrace, where the dancers welcomed us!
They made it very enjoyable and lively. The welcome Mai Tai and the food were delicious and satisfying. It was a windy day and a bit cold, though!

The show was full of Hawaiian vibes, featuring performances like Michael's and fire shows, so it was never boring! I didn't know many of the songs, but my mother had a great time.
The dancing was of a very high level and captivating. I'm glad we had such a wonderful night.

ハワイ最後の夜に、母と2人で初参加。
はじめにテラスで、ダンサーの方々にもてなして頂きながらビュッフェ！
とても楽しく盛り上げてくださいました。
ウェルカムマイタイ、ごはんともに美味しく満足でした。風が強い日で寒かったですが笑

ショーはハワイを感じながらも、マイケルや炎のパフォーマンスなど盛り沢山で退屈しません！私はあまり曲は分かりませんでしたが、母はとても楽しんでいました。
ダンスもとてもレベルが高く魅了されました。
素敵な夜を過ごせてよかったです。

I participate in this sailing every year when I come to Hawaii. The view from the sea is also amazing. My mother, who will turn 84 this year, looks forward to this sailing every year. You get a little wet when you get on the boat, but that feels nice.

毎年ハワイに来るたびにこのセーリングに参加しています。
海側から見る景色も最高です。
今年84歳になる母も毎年このセーリングを楽しみにしています。
船に乗る時に多少濡れますがそれがまた気持ち良いです。

This was my first time in Hawaii, and I participated despite being inexperienced. Although I left early, I was anxious because I couldn't find the reception area. The food was more ordinary than I expected, but there was a lot of it. I wasn't feeling well, and since it was outdoors, it got cold halfway through, so a jacket is a must. The show was absolutely satisfying. Both the women and men were wonderful. When it was time to leave, the performers took photos with those who wanted them. It became a great memory.

はじめてのハワイ、不慣れな中の参加です。
早めに出たものの、受付の場所が見つからずやきもきしました。
食事は思ったよりも普通でしたが、ボリュームがあります。
体調が悪かったのもありますが、屋外ということもあり途中で寒くなってきたので羽織必須ですね。
ショーは言うことなしの大満足でした。
女性も男性も素敵の一言。帰る段になって、希望者には出演者が一緒に写真を撮ってくれました。良い思い出になりました。

I didn't use the hotel pickup and went to the meeting place by rental car, but it was very difficult to find. I called the Japanese office and communicated with a Japanese staff member, but in the end, I couldn't make it on time... I was about to give up, but somehow when I arrived, they said they would accommodate me for the next tour (in one hour)!

On the phone, they mentioned that they were fully booked for the day, but the local tour company staff seemed very relaxed about the details and kindly accepted me, which was a relief.

Captain Rusty was a lot of fun, and while I was taking selfies, he sat next to me and got in the frame. In the end, he said, "Come back again!" and even with my limited English, we were able to enjoy ourselves without any problems.

ホテルピックアップではなく、レンタカーで集合場所まで行ったのですが、とてもわかりずらかったです。日本の事務所に電話をして、日本人スタッフとやりとりさせていただいたのですが、結局間に合わず・・諦めかけましたが、なんとかたどり着くと、次回（1時間後）に入れてあげる！とのこと。
電話では、今日はもう予約でいっぱい、というようなことを言われましたが、現地のツアー会社の方は細かいことは気にしない！という感じで、快く受け入れてくれたので安心しました。

キャプテンのRustyがとても楽しい人で、自撮りをしていると隣に座って映り込んできたりしました。
最後は、また来てねー！と言ってくれて、英語が不自由な私たちでも問題なく楽しめました。

I used the service in December. It was cloudy on the day, and it started to drizzle partway through, making it very, very cold. After reading the voucher carefully, I realized it mentioned bringing warm clothing, so it was our fault for not reading it well.

It was disappointing that we couldn't see the sunset beautifully, but I was able to feel cheerful and had a lot of fun. Drinking a Mai Tai while shivering on the boat is also a good memory. (laughs) If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would like to have a revenge experience!

12月に利用しました。当日は曇り＆途中から小雨が降ってきてしまい、とてもとても寒かったです。バウチャーをよく読んだら、持ち物に防寒具とかって書いてあったので、よく読まなかった自分たちが悪いのです。
サンセットは綺麗に見えずに残念でしたが、陽気な気分になれて楽しかったです。船上で震えながらマイタイを飲んだのも良い思い出。（笑）
またハワイに行く機会があったら、リベンジしたいなーと思います！

I used the hotel-to-airport shuttle bus for the first time. Until now, I had been using a taxi due to concerns about time loss and potential troubles. The pickup was almost on time, which was a relief. I was the second to be picked up. The driver, while heading to pick up three other groups, spoke in English and shared fun local information that you wouldn't find in a guidebook, such as mentioning the next stop would be at [Hotel Name]. I enjoyed it and will use this service again.

初めてホテル→空港のシャトルバスを利用しました。今までは時間のロスやトラブル等が不安だったのでTAXIを利用していました。
ほぼ時間通りのピックアップだったので、まず一安心。私は乗り合いの2番目。ドライバーさんは他3組のピックアップに向かう際に、英語でしたが、次は○○○ホテルに向かいます、とか空港までの道中で、ガイドブックには載っていない地元の方ならではの情報などを愉快に話してくれて楽しかったです。また利用します。

This was our second time and it was just as awesome as the first time (2 yrs ago).

There was a counter right outside the group exit, which was easy to find. The previous bus had just left, so we waited a little, but other than that, there were no issues. The bus dropped us off right in front of the hotel we were staying at, so we didn't have to walk with our large luggage, which was very convenient.

団体出口から出てすぐのところにカウンターがあり、わかりやすかったです。前のバスがちょうど出発したばかりで、少し待ちましたが、それ以外は何の問題もありませんでした。宿泊するホテルの前にバスをつけてもらえたので、大きな荷物を持って歩くこともなく、とても快適でした。

Since my friend had a different flight schedule, I had to travel alone between the hotel and the airport, so I used the shuttle bus. The wait time was short, the price was reasonable, and since tips were included, I didn't have to worry about how much to prepare for a tip. If you're traveling with two or more people, a taxi might be a good option, but for one or two people, I think the shuttle bus is definitely worth it.

友人と飛行機の便の時間が違った為、1人でホテルと空港間を移動しないといけなかったのでシャトルバスを利用しました。待ち時間も少なく、値段もリーズナブルでチップも込みなのでチップをいくら用意すればいいかの心配をせずに利用出来ました。2人以上の旅行でしたらTaxiでも良いと思いますが1人か2人だと利用価値有りだと思います。

I participated this time on the recommendation of my boss. As I had heard, most of the people on board were foreigners, which made me a bit anxious at first. However, the Mai Tai I had on the boat was exquisite, and the scenery was so beautiful that I found myself thoroughly enjoying the experience. I think it's quite a bargain for such a fun time at this price. If I have the opportunity to go to Hawaii again, I would like to participate once more.

上司からの勧めで今回参加しました。
噂に聞いていた通り乗っているのは外国の方ばかりで最初は少し不安でしたが、船で飲むマイタイは絶品で、見える景色もとても綺麗で気づいたらすっかり楽しんでいました。
こんなに楽しくてこの値段はかなりお得だと思います。次回もハワイに行く機会がありましたら参加したいと思います。
