キラウエア火山 ドアなし ヘリコプター遊覧 ＜英語パイロット／フライト60分／ヒロ空港集合＞ by パラダイスヘリコプター
噴火のシーンを見れました。
Reviewed by: モッテイ
ヘリコプターでのキラウェア火山の上空を飛ぶのは、2回目でした。一度目は 火口から微かにオレンジ色のものが見えただけでしたが
今回は、噴火をしててマグマがドロドロと吹き出している様子がみえました。ツアー案内の写真では、かなりの低空飛行をしてるように見えますが実際には、そんなに火口には近づいてくれなくて少し残念でした。

Kilauea Volcano Doors-Off Helicopter Tour from Hilo [Not Operating]
An awesome doors-off experience
Reviewed by: Mr.Anonymous
The cool thing about this helicopter flight is that you get to see a lot of volcanoes national park in a relatively little amount of time. Especially since the lava wasn't flowing a lot that day, flying over the greyish lava wasteland made it a lot easier to spot minor lava flows (see picture).
Since it was raining that day, there was too much steam for us to fly directly over the caldera, but otherwise the flight was great. If conditions are stable, I definitely recommend a helicopter flight as the best way to see the volcano. There's a lot you can only see from up in the sky.

キラウエア火山 ドアなし ヘリコプター遊覧 ＜英語パイロット／フライト60分／ヒロ空港集合＞ by パラダイスヘリコプター
かなり満足度が高い空からのアプローチ
Reviewed by: ecchan
火山国立公園が閉鎖され、近くに行けないため空からのアプローチでヘリコプターツアーに参加しました。料金は高いですが、上から眺めるキラウエア火山の様子が実際に見れたのは素晴らしい感動と思い出になりました。
天気のせいで雲がかかってしまい、スマホでの撮影はいまいちでしたが、肉眼ではその迫力がリアルに感じ取られ、参加して本当によかったです。
パイロットの方はとても安全で酔った人はひとりもいませんでした。
最後にヘリコプターの前でお写真を撮ってくれるサービスも嬉しかったです・

Had a beautiful helicopter tour through volcanoes and waterfalls, but it almost didn't happen because Veltra didn't give the right information to the company, resulting in us showing up at the airport and discovering our reservation didn't exist.

Blue Hawaiian Helicopters Discover Hilo Tour - Volcanic Landscapes & Waterfalls
Better than I expected
Reviewed by: Jennifer Harriette
1st time in a helicopter. 1 more bucket list item checked off. The views were spectacular and we were very fortunate to have the weather & Mother Nature in general on our side that day. Our captain/pilot was great and very knowledgeable. He encouraged us to ask questions & answered them very well. I personally think the whole experience was worth every penny but then again, we were a party of 2. Either way, I would highly recommend Bule Hawaiian and this flight package in particular. Got to see everything they advertised. Aloha!

For a smooth, quiet and relaxing flight over the Volcano fields - choose the Eco-Star!
Reviewed by: Craig M
For my first flight in a helicopter, wasn't sure what to expect... but wow what a smooth & quiet aircraft the Eco-Star is! The crew at Blue Hawaiian were courteous & professional and our Pilot Patrick was great - who was always checking to make sure everyone was comfortable during the trip and had ample opportunity to see & photograph each viewing site.

Hawaii Zipline Tours - Big Island Waterfall & Rainforest Zip Adventure
Great value and views along this zipline
Reviewed by: Corly
Overall, very satisfied with the value of this trip. I have ziplined in Mexico and in Belize City, and this trip was very comparable in terms of value, excitement, and thrill.
The Hawaii zipline consisted of 7 lines, the first few were relatively short. Although short, breathtaking views. The last three were much longer, more scenic, and best of all, amazing view of a BEAUTIFUL waterfall! The day I went was very gloomy and did have some slight visibility issues due to fog, but the experience was amazing.
This was more expensive than my foreign ziplines, but as I mentioned, it was a great value for the experience relative to the other ziplines I have done.
Thinking back on what I could have paid for other Big Island adventures, no regrets on this trip and would ABSOLUTELY do this one again.
Lastly, the staff were great! Very expeditious, always safety first, and very friendly.

キラウエア火山 ドアなし ヘリコプター遊覧 ＜英語パイロット／フライト60分／ヒロ空港集合＞ by パラダイスヘリコプター
また乗りたい！
Reviewed by: otan123
初めてヘリコプターに乗りました。前日、ヒロ空港に着くと同時に、予約の再確認とチェックイン場所確認でロビー２に行きましたが、そこで体重測定等一部チェックインできました。当日は１０分ぐらいのインストラクションの後、ヘリポートへ。スタッフも丁寧で、手際が良かったです。乗り物酔いするかと思いましたが、操縦が上手なのかとても快適でした。上空はやはり寒く、風と相まって小雨も混じってきたので、上着は必須です。しかし、火口の熱気や、タプタプ波打つ赤いlavaが見られて、こんなに簡単に自然を感じられるものか！？と感動しました。英語は丁寧にポイントごとに説明してくれて、ヘッドセットをつけていて全員でおしゃべりできるので、グループで体験すれば意味わかった人が日本語で話すことでみんなで共有出来て良いと思います。最初はいろんな意味で緊張しましたが、ヒロの街を一望出来て、いろいろな年代の溶岩の流れた跡を一目で確認できて、地上からは感じられないハワイ島の自然を体感できたような気がします。

Reviewed by: Bill and Kathy
This was a tour which we will never forget! My husband, Bill and my brother Gary and his wife Deb thoroughly enjoyed this and Lee was the perfect guide. He was very knowledgeable about the culture and being a native new the area well. He answered all our questions an excellent host to us and friendly to everyone who we met on the way. He was also very personable and a family man talking about his family and sharing with us how he helps the children in his spare time on the island. He is a true asset to the company and to his heritage of the island. Taking a private tour is definitely worth your money and time spent on the island! Mahola! Lee

Private Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Tour from Hilo
Fun tour
Reviewed by: Meredith
We really enjoyed our trip to Volcanoes National Park! We walked in a lava tube with headlamps on at night and the kids absolutely loved it. Then we saw lava from a viewing deck at the museum using binoculars and I will never forget that. We also felt the steam from several steam vents coming out of the ground, and we hiked through a rain forest down to the bottom of a crater and walked on an old lava flow. Very memorable visit! Our tour guide was very informative and made sure we got to see and do everything.
Yes, The world Heritage site of the Hawai"i Volcanoes National Park is a complete treasure and never is the same. We experienced a beautiful day together and the Ohana will return through the beautiful website that the park maintains; 24/7
Mahalo Nui Loa for finding Wild Orchid Tours.

Kilauea Volcano Doors-Off Helicopter Tour from Hilo [Not Operating]
We changed it to Doors-off at the last minute
Reviewed by: Pedro
I can't give a feedback regarding Doors-on because we changed it at the last minute. Of course we paid the difference, but it worth it. Actually, after flying without doors, I could said that I wouldn't take the Doors-on option: the whole perspective is incredible and with doors that view wouldn't have been possible...ok, maybe warmer than withoug doors, but that's it.
However, it would habe been nice to be informed that the middle seat it's only for people who are not so tall: my girlfriend really REALLY wanted to be at the window seat, and I gladly would have given it to her, but it was not possible due to my height. We were told about this the moment before boarding. She was really dissapointed.

Reviewed by: Sarah
This helicopter tour was certainly one of the highlights of our trip. Checking in was a breeze. The pilot (Karl I think) was great, really friendly and knowledgable and told us fascinating stories about the land. His mixed tape for the flight was a great accompaniment to the flight. Nothing can quite prepare you for how amazing it is to fly over a volcanoe crater spewing lava, I was truly awe struck and felt like a kid again! It really is the top experience I would recommend on the big island.

Aloha folks! Wow, so much has happened here in Hawai'i, since we toured together. the 13 climates of the planet showed up;
we had an extra-ordinary range of weather : from monsoon rains with hail and rolling, crackling thunder from Mauna Kea and
Mauna loa. Then clear, blue quiet skies. rolling waterfalls and quiet heavens...and then thunder and lightning and wind from the sea...
Mahalo for the memories.
