My husband and I had a blast on our parasailing trip with Hawaiian Parasailing. We had a group of 8 (4 pairs). One of the ladies got ill, but the crew was so graceful that it was no big deal. We all still spent the right amoutn of time on our pairsailing excursion. Kevin and Kyle were our tour guides... More

The actual parasailing was fantastic. Boat crew were a little blunt but we experienced that all around Oahu and who can blame them with so many tourists everywhere ALL the time. Our pickup driver was "entertaining" but of course was just after the big sell, even handing out coupons to restaurants who obviously pay him for a plug. More

A great first time experience. They honored the coupon that was in the entertainment book with no problems. Other operators tried to reneg out of the agreement. They were knowledgeable and gave good explanation of what would be happening. We appreciated the photo deal where they will take lots of pics while you fly and sell you the SD card... More

This is a great activity. The company picked me up from my hotel (by Greg, very friendly and helpful), with all the others, he drove us to the marina where we met the speedboat Skipper, Wade, and the crew (Mike). From the outset, you always know that this team have your safety as their first concern - and then your... More

Worse customer service on the planet. Repeatedly I told them I was staying at Hilton Waikiki Beach hotel for pickup. Repeatedly because there are several Hilton's in the area and this is the newest, so I wanted to make sure they knew. When it came time to pick us up, guess where they went? the Hawaiian Village. Some Asian girl... More

We did the Hawaiian Parasail and it was a BLAST! We purchased it on Groupon for One Tandem Parasail Adventure for 2 people and paid half price. Great value! It would have been worth regular price it we had to pay regular. Before going I was freaking myself out but after words I was asking myself why. Part of the... More

I purchased a Groupon certificate; using it was very easy. The girls in the office had bit of a 'mañana' attitude, however, the guys running the boat were personable, well spoken and took safety seriously. I would recommend them, we had a great experience. More

Finished a wonderful day in Hawaii with a sunset parasail (the last booking of the day). It's a thrill if you've never done it... nothing real scary. You can get wet (dipped into the water) if you want. It's a blast! More

I always wanted to try Parasailing but was a bit apprehensive about it. I wasn’t sure if I was going to be thrown into the sea, have to swim back to the boat or get thrashed about in the wind. Well, the good news is that none of that happened. We were strapped onto the harness then glided up the... More

This place is not only a jip, I found out afterwards that they had two accidents in 2010 where the cable broke when people were up in the air and at least one person was seriously hurt. They let a family with little kids go before us and of course one of the kids puked, which meant we got about... More
