All Reviews for Waikiki Things to Do

Great adventure for any age - my mom (81) and aunt (76) had a blast swinging 1,000 feet up taking in the breathtaking views of Oahu. Lots of fun with a dip or two into the Pacific Ocean before being brought back into the boat. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a different perspective of Hawaii and the beautiful blue ocean.

I previously used a different catamaran during the day, but this one was more affordable, so I decided to use it to watch the sunset. Since it was bright, I usually missed the sunset without realizing it, but this time it was perfect from the water. My child found it amusing to bounce on the safety net last time, so they quickly moved onto the net, but it seems that's not allowed now, and they were warned. Still, they were satisfied sitting at the front and getting soaked from the splashes. It's a must to wear a swimsuit at the front.

以前は別のカタマランを昼に利用しましたが
此方の方がお値打ちでしたのでサンセットを
見るために利用しました。
明るいのでいつもは知らない間にサンセットが
終わっていましたが、今回は海上からバッチリです。
子供は前回セフティーネットで跳ねた事が面白かったらしく、早速ネットの上に移動したのですが、今はダメらしく注意されました。
それでも先端に座って飛沫でずぶ濡れになって満足そうでした。
先端は水着で参加がマストですね。

It's was a very fun time. The crew were competent as well as entertaining. The crowd were of varied ages, so it made everyone comfortable and included. A beautiful evening in Waikiki. My wife and I went on the cruise instead of a luau for our 34th anniversary and we have absolutely NO regrets. I highly recommend it

We participated as a family of four. Most of the participants were Westerners, creating an exceptional exotic atmosphere. With Diamond Head in the background and other yachts coming and going in the sunset, it turned out to be the perfect sunset cruise. It was a wonderful memory.

家族4人で参加。ほとんどが西洋人で異国情緒の雰囲気抜群。夕陽にダイヤモンドヘッドをバックに他のヨットが行き来し、これ以上ないサンセットクルーズになりました。素晴らしい思い出です。

I was well taken care of in Hawaii during my meals! I enjoyed the drinks and food, and since I have weak legs, they helped me carry things and I also enjoyed dancing! The hula show was more than enough! The performances by Presley and other activities were wonderful and captivating. This year, I also got to see the fire dance for the first time! I'm looking forward to putting the photos I purchased in my album. I will visit again next year. Please continue to provide wonderful shows!

My husband and son participated. They said it was their first time surfing, and they had a lot of fun, even more than they expected. My husband said we definitely should do it, so next time, I would love for my daughter and me to join as well.

夫と息子が参加しました。
初めてのサーフィン、予想以上に乗れて
楽しかったと言ってました。
絶対やった方がいいと夫が言ってくれたので、
次回は私と娘も是非参加したいです。

We participated as a family of three, including our 13-year-old son. The pickup arrived a little before the designated time, just before 8 AM. The local Hawaiian staff spoke broken Japanese during the ride, but most of the communication was in English. We departed from a port that doesn't go to Ala Moana. There were two crew members, and they also spoke broken Japanese. The explanations were mainly in English, but there were no complicated instructions, so we felt at ease.

Besides our family, there were other Japanese families, newlyweds, foreign couples, and foreign families. Our family was called first, and while we were being set up, they offered to take pictures during the flight for $30. It was a sudden offer, and since I didn't have any cash on hand, I politely declined with a "No, thank you." Shortly after, we were gently released into the air. We soared high, with clear weather, even higher than the birds flying over the sea, and we could see Waikiki Beach from above, which was amazing.

Since holding a regular camera was risky, I brought an action camera like a GoPro and secured it to my chest, allowing me to capture great memories. The flight felt brief, and at the end, we were lightly dropped onto the water, which was a fun part of the experience. We touched down gently on the boat and were welcomed with applause from the waiting participants. While waiting, we could enjoy watching others fly.

Before leaving the ship, since we participated as three, we handed over $40 and disembarked. This was our first parasailing experience, and with the weather, location, and a height of 150 meters, it was an unprecedented experience that created wonderful memories for our whole family.

13歳の息子を含む、親子三人で参加しました。

急に言われたのですが、持ち合わせもなかったので、No Thank you.と断りました。
そのあとすぐにフワリと空へ放たれました。

今までにない経験することができ、家族みんなで最高の思い出になりました。

I was able to enjoy a spectacular fire dance. The large circle that matched the visuals in the background was also impressive. I definitely want to recommend this to anyone going to Honolulu. The food was delicious, and it was a wonderful entertainment experience that kept us entertained during mealtime.

豪快なファイヤーダンスも楽しむことができました。後ろの映像とマッチングしているところも見ごたえのある大きなが円で良かったです。是非ともホノルルへ行く人にも勧めたいと思います。食事もおいしく、食事時間にも楽しませてくれる大変良いエンタテイメンントで素晴らしかったです。

We participated as a couple, and about 70% of the passengers were from English-speaking countries. The crew was very attentive, and we enjoyed ourselves so much that we didn't feel any language barrier. The cruising experience was very pleasant, and the sunset provided us with a valuable experience. It was such a great time on the Holokai Catamaran that we would love to participate again next time.

私たちは夫婦で参加しました、乗船者の７割くらいの方は英語圏の方でしたが、クルーの気配りも良く言葉のハンデも感じないほど楽しく過ごさせて頂きました。クルージングはとても気持ちよく、サンセットは貴重な体験をさせて頂きました。次回も参加をしたいと思うほど良いホロカイ・カタマラン号です。

We participated as a family of three and were able to fly together. While many companies have a weight restriction of "27 kilograms or more," this one allowed our child, who is in first grade and weighs 22 kilograms, to join. The crew was cheerful and fun, and I thought I would like to use this service again the next time we go to Hawaii. Since the boat can sway quite a bit, I recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance for those who are prone to getting seasick.

親子３人で参加し、３人一緒に飛ぶことができました。「体重27キロ以上」という制限のある会社が多い中、こちらは小１で体重２２キロの子供でもO.K.でした。クルーの方が明るくて楽しくて、また次にハワイに行く時もこちらでお願いしたいな、と思いました。ボートがけっこう揺れたりするので、乗り物酔いしやすい方は、あらかじめ酔い止めを飲んでいくことをおすすめします。

I've experienced it in Guam as well, but this time we had a longer time in the air, and the kids really enjoyed the water splash that they had been reluctant about. The crew was humorous, and I highly recommend it.

グアムでも体験していますが、今回は上空での時間も長く、子供達は嫌がっていた水ポチャもとても楽しくて良かったです。
クルーもユーモラスで、オススメです。

All in all a fantastic experience, well organised and the hosts were very engaging and knew thier stuff. Would highly recommend and would also go again or one of there other experiences. Thanks guys.

I was able to fully enjoy the ocean in Honolulu. The weather was great, and we had plenty of time for snorkeling, followed by a fun cruise. I even encountered the turtles I wanted to meet, which made it a wonderful experience. If I have the chance again, I would definitely like to participate.

ホノルルの海を満喫できました。
天気も良く、シュノーケルの時間もたっぷりあり、その後のクルージングも楽しかったです。
出会いたかった亀にも遭遇でき、大変楽しめました。
また機会があれば、是非参加したいです。

I participated with my wife and my parents, who are nearly 80 years old. The food was delicious, and there were thoughtful touches of hospitality throughout, which made my parents happy. We enjoyed the show from a good seat, and it was great that we could take many photos after the show. I wish it were a bit cheaper, but overall, it was excellent.

家内と80歳目前の両親とで参加しました。食事も美味しいし、随所におもてなしの工夫があって、両親も喜んでました。ショーも見やすい席で楽しめましたし、ショーの後に写真がたくさん撮れたのもよかったと思います。もう少し安ければ言うことなしです。

This is my fifth time participating! It's become a tradition to join when I'm staying in Honolulu on Fridays! It's the best! Even in summer, it can be cold, so I recommend bringing a jacket.

今回で５回目の参加です！
金曜に、ホノルル滞在の時は参加するのが定番に！
最高ですよ～
夏場でも寒いので上着は持参をおすすめです。

I'm 56 years old, but I don't know Elvis from his peak years, I just met Michael, and I have no idea about Katy. However, including the Hawaiian part, it was a lot of fun.

We started with cocktails and then enjoyed a meal while chatting. I thought, "This tastes familiar," and it might be from STAR of Honolulu?

All the performers put in a lot of effort, entertaining the audience. Since our seats were close, we could even hear their breathing. It was very powerful. There were many Japanese people, so maybe they made the English jokes easier to understand?

My husband and I are beginners who are totally hooked on Hawaii (this is our third time in three consecutive years). It was our first time at a typical Hawaiian show, and we had a great time; the time flew by.

Being from the countryside, I'm not used to entertainment itself, so I might find everything "amazing."

いい歳（56歳）ですが、エルビスは若い頃のピークを知らず、マイコーはジャストミート、ケイティーはさっぱりわからず。でもハワイアンも含めて、とても楽しかったです。
カクテルからスタートしてワイワイ言いながら食事へ、「どこかで食べたようなと思ったら」STAR of Honolulu？かな。
出演者みんな一生懸命のパフォーマンスで、観客を楽しませてくれます。席が近いので、皆さんの息遣いまで聞こえます。迫力満点です。日本人が多いので英語のジョークもわかりやすく言ってくれてるのかな？
私たち夫婦は、ハワイ・どハマリ初心者（3年連続3回目）です、ベタなハワイのショーが初めてでしたが普通に楽しく、時間の過ぎるのもすごく早く感じました。
田舎者なので、Entertainmentそのものに慣れてなくて、何でも「スゴイ」と感じているかもです。

My first experience with parasailing was amazing. After arriving in the morning, I took part in the activity, and even though I had been sound asleep on the way to the departure port (about 10 minutes from the hotel), I was wide awake by the time they put on the equipment. I felt a bit anxious while waiting my turn, but once I was pulled up high into the sky, with Waikiki below me, I felt no fear at all and was completely moved by the experience. The guides also helped ease my tension a lot.

初体験のパラセーリング、朝到着してからのアクティビティで、出発の港(ホテルから１０分ほど・・・)迄、爆睡してたのに、装備を付ける頃か目はパッチリ、ちょっと不安で順番待ち、
でも、引っ張られて空高く上がると、ワイキキを眼下に、恐怖なんか微塵も感じず、感動しまくりでした。又、ガイドの人達が随分緊張をやわらげてくれました。

The day I participated was a bit windy, but the weather was nice, so the view was amazing! During the parasailing, time flew by, and I wished it could have lasted a little longer.

参加した日はちょっと風が強かったですが、お天気は良かったので眺めは最高でした♪♪パラセーリングをしてる間はあっという間だったのでもう少し長かったらなぁと思いました。

It was fun! It felt great! We are a couple with two children in the fourth grade. We jumped two at a time. The view was nice, and the height wasn't scary at all. The kids were very satisfied. The crew was also very accommodating and helped us with all the gear. They took a lot of photos with a digital SLR camera, and there are videos as well. It will be a wonderful memory. The pick-up and drop-off were on time. I'm glad we participated.

楽しかった〜。気持ち良かった〜。夫婦と小学校4年生の子供2人。2人ずつ飛びました。景色も良いし、高さも怖くありません。子供たちも大満足。船員さんの対応もよく、全て装着してくれました。デジタル一眼レフの写真もたくさん撮ってくれます。動画もあります。とても良い記念になります。送迎も時間正確。参加して良かったです。

It was a participation with my friend's 10-year-old twins and the four of us. The weather was cloudy and not very clear, but the little ones seemed to enjoy the boat swaying in the waves, which felt like a roller coaster. It would have been perfect if there were fewer clouds!

友達の10歳の双子と4人での参加でした。
雲が多くスッキリしない天気でしたが、チビッ子たちは波に揺れる船がジェットコースターみたいで楽しかったようです。
これで雲が少なければ最高でした！

It ended up being surprisingly uneventful and not as scary as I had thought. The staff was friendly and spoke Japanese. However, I had a hard time finding the pickup vehicle. The name I was given was not written on the car, and I finally met the driver after contacting the tour company (which only spoke English). Tips are not included in the tour price, so you need to bring cash for that.

思っていたほど恐怖感なく意外とあっけなく終わってしまいました。スタッフは親切で日本語も通じました。ただ、ピックアップの車が見つけにくく苦労しました。聞いていた名前は車に書かれておらずツアー会社(英語のみ)に連絡をしてやっとお迎えのドライバーに会えました。チップはツアー代金に含まれていないのでそのぶん現金を持参する必要があります。

Since it was my first time, I went for 90 meters, which was high enough. But I might have been okay with going higher. In the end, I ended up with my butt in the sea, so it's better to participate in a swimsuit.

初めてだったんで90mにしましたが、充分高い。でももっと高くてもよかったかも。最後はお尻を海につけられてしまったので、水着で参加がいいですね。

Unlike diving, you can easily dive down to 30-40 meters and see the blue sea where sunlight doesn't reach. The sight of the submarine emerging from the ocean is breathtaking. The cruise is enjoyable and feels great, so I recommend it for families.

ダイビングと違って、気軽に30-40mまで潜れて、太陽に光の届かない青い海が見れました。潜水艦が海から飛び出してくるところは圧巻です。クルーズも楽しめて気持ちがいいので、家族連れにはおすすめです。

White sandy beaches, crystal-clear sea, welcoming turtles, and dolphins jumping next to the boat.
I was satisfied even before entering the water♪

The underwater world was beautiful, with sharks, turtles, and various fish.
I was very satisfied.

白い砂浜、透き通る海、出迎える亀、船の横でジャンプするイルカ
海にはいる前でも満足♪

海の中は綺麗で、サメや亀、いろんな魚がいました
大変満足

Since I participated on Friday night, I was able to enjoy the sunset as well as the Hilton fireworks from the boat, which was wonderful. The staff were all cheerful, and I was able to have a fun time throughout. There was plenty of time, and I was satisfied with being able to leisurely enjoy both the sunset and the night view.

金曜の夜に参加したので、サンセットに加えてヒルトンの花火も船上から見ることができ、とてもよかったです。スタッフの方が皆陽気で、終始楽しい気分で過ごせました。時間がたっぷりあり、夕陽も夜景もゆっくり楽しめて満足でした。

The instructor is kind of young but they are really enthusiastic.Indeed it is very helpful and my families do really have a goodddd time. I especially appreciate that cheerful attitude which make you feel comfortable for the whole surfing time.

Competent crew and very friendly. Website preparation is excellent.

It was my first time doing SUP, but the instructor was kind and explained everything clearly, so I was able to move as I wanted in about 30 minutes. The wind and waves made SUP challenging, but I was able to enjoy it nonetheless. Next time, I want to challenge myself to go a bit faster and venture further out.

初めてのSUPでしたが、インストラクターが親切に分かりやすく教えてくれたので、30分くらいで思うように進むことが出来るようになりました。風や波はSUPを難しくするのですが、それはそれで楽しむことができました。次回はもう少しスピードを出して、沖の方まで行くことにチャレンジしたいと思います。

Captain Dan and his first mate were professional, efficient and gracious. My 3 kids (17,15,12) and I had a great parasail experience with X-treme. We got every bit of airtime we paid for, and then some. I was thoroughly impressed with the Captain's dexterous maneuvering as he dipped us in and out of the ocean. The first mate got everyone clipped in and clipped out so smoothly that there was almost zero down time in between us parasailers.

The captain and crew mate were excellent. They were having fun and clearly love their jobs. We had a great time and got to see beautiful sights.
