Big Island Spectacular Circle Island Helicopter Flight with Landing Option

Excellent

Reviewed by: Dirk

This was an excellent activity! Our pilot, Toshi, did a great job of getting us close to the lava flows and the waterfalls. He was extremely knowledgeable of all the sights and was able to effectively communicate to both those who only spoke English and those who only spoke Japanese. I would highly recommend this two hour flight over the other flights available. What you are able to see in that amount of time is well worth the extra money!

Big Island Spectacular Circle Island Helicopter Flight with Landing Option

Big Island Adventure

Reviewed by: Debra N. from Iowa

I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is a first time visitor to the Big Island. The views were spectacular! Take many pictures in flight as the DVD of the flight does not capture everything you see and ask alot of questions about what you are seeing. For me, it was worth the money! The staff were great!

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧 水~土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能<フライト100分/英語パイロット/ワイコロアヘリポート>

火山と自然に圧倒

Reviewed by: 小春

夫婦+子ども(4歳、2歳)の4人で参加しました。
価格は正直高いですが、価値のあるツアーでした。

2011年11月現在は火山も小康状態ということで
流れる溶岩をみることはできませんでしたが、
大地の切れ目から見える赤いマグマ、煙をみることができ、
島内遊覧も滝の近くや海や陸、気候の違う大地を空からみることができて良かったです。

ちなみに、当初の予約日は天候不良のため、現地チェックイン後に催行中止になりました。
日程に余裕があったので、後日に変更して無事参加できました。
予約される場合は、ハワイ島到着日前半に予約をして
予備日を一日設けておくのをお勧めします。

平日予約で日本人パイロット希望でしたが、残念ながら英語案内でした。
正直説明はほとんどわかりませんでしたが、景色は楽しめました。
日本語ガイドだったらもっと楽しめたのかもしれませんね。
そこだけ残念です。

Reply from activity provider

この度はハワイ島のヘリコプターツアーにご家族でご参加いただきありがとうございました。
ヘリコプターからの眺めならではのハワイ島の迫力のある景色をお楽しみいただけたようで大変嬉しく思っております。
日本語パイロットにつきましてはリクエストいただいても確約ではございません。ご希望に添えないこともございますのでご了承いただけると幸いです。

それではまたハワイ島にお越しください。

マハロ!

Kilauea Volcano Doors-Off Helicopter Tour from Hilo [Not Operating]

Excellent Tour

Reviewed by: John Johnson

I took the doors off flight and I was totally amazed.
This is the best experience you could even imagine.
Ranks equal to or even better than riding my Harley through the Rocky mountains in Colorado.
Of coarse you can tell that I highly recommend this flight and especially with the doors off.
The pilot on my flight (Dillon) (hope I spelled your name right) was skilled and competent and ready to answer all questions with knowledge and completness.

Just do it!!! A. L. (John) Johnson Englewood CO

Hawaii Forest & Trail - Kona Volcano Hiking Tour & Hidden Craters Adventure

Well informed tour!

Reviewed by: irene

The excursion was extremely interesting and our tour guide Mavrick very knowledgeable also he was concered about the group safety. We where well informed about the history of the creater, lava tube and the coffee tour! The staff was wonderful and extremely polite, took their time for the guest to drink some of the delicious Hula Daddy Coffee while looking out at the beautiful view.
The only downside I had was the ***extremely*** bumping ride as we got closer to the crater, I feel if there was dirt road or pavement all would have been perfect... I also feel because of the rough road and the crater edge no kids should be taken on this tour. Overall, this was an experience I will always remember, Thanks.

家族3人で参加。他2人の外国人と計5名のパーティでした。自転車案内兼ガイドさんはカルフォルニア出身の地質学専門家で、とても説明がわかりやすかったです(ただし英語)。車で並走の付き添いスタッフのフォローもとても親切で優しかったです。水、スナックの補充はこまめにしてくださいました。オフロードあり、オンロードの長い走行ありでとても楽しめました。車や歩きでは味わえない爽快な気分は自転車ならではですね。基本的に下りのラン。あれほどの距離を一機に走行したのは初めての経験でした。
最後にワイナリーでの試飲。これまた美味しく、お店のマダムとの会話も楽しませていただきました。

これは、絶対経験するべきと思いました!

赤い溶岩が動いている様子やワイピオ渓谷の他にもヘリでしか行けない渓谷にも連れて行ってくれて、日常では見られない世界です。

自然の素晴らしさを見られます。

パイロットのトシさんは、楽しい方で、いろいろ説明もしてもらえてので良かったです。

トシさんはアロハブリーズという会社もされているそうです。

その時の自然の状態を見られるので、何度経験しても飽きないと思います。

次もぜひ、ヘリに乗ろうと思います!

Bike to Pele - Hawaii Volcano Biking Tour at Puna Lava Fields [Open Soon]

Great time!

Reviewed by: Alexander

We did the Volcano Bike Tour in late May 2011. We had a great time. Fred, our tour guide, was very knowledgable about volcanos, the land, and history of what we toured. The ride was very doable with a few inclines to be challenging and make one feel like they accomplished something. We had a nice deli lunch by the ocean when we finished riding. I suggest you bring a jacket or sweatshirt as it is cooler at that altitude. Also, check out driving time to the meeting point. We stayed on the Kona side and it took 1 1/2 hr. to get to the general store.

ハワイ島を鳥目線で見下ろす

Reviewed by: fufufu

車でハワイ島を回った後に参加。

車では見えなかった景色や島の全貌が見え興奮ものでした。

ハワイは雲がとても低く感じられます。
雲に入った瞬間に窓に水滴がつきプロペラの爆風ですごい勢いで窓を伝って滑り落ちていく様までが珍しく、驚きの連続でした。


草原地帯と、溶岩の固まったような黒いエリアの境目が見えたり、道なき場所にある川沿いにだけ植物が育っているのをみたり、急に火山が出現しその中で溶岩が赤く光っているのをみたり、そうかと思えば、緑あふれるにある壮大な滝に接近したり、本当にハワイの自然の壮大さを体感でいるツアーでした。

日本人パイロットもいるということでそれにかけていましたが、残念ながら英語対応。

もうちょっと英語がわかればもっとおもしろかったのに…。自分の英語力のなさを痛感しました。

もちろんパイロットさんは、とっても爽やかで素敵な方でしたいよ。

こちらで全貌をみてから島を車でまわると、いろいろなことに興味がもてていいかもしれません。

Big Island Spectacular Circle Island Helicopter Flight with Landing Option

Helicopter Volcano Tour

Reviewed by: Tina Thatcher

This was an excellent trip!

The pre-flight activities were well organized, and the staff was very courteous.

The actual flight was incredible, and the pilot was very knowledgeable. It was wonderful to be able to ask questions while in flight.

The weather was the only drawback. We couldn't see the crater due to rain/fog/wind. It was still an incredible trip, but it would have been even better to see the crater.

I would recommend this trip to anyone, although considering the cost, children probably wouldn't enjoy as much as adults. Seating is arranged by weight to balance the ride, so young children could be separated from Mom - might be an issue for some.

Overall, a wonderful tour conducted by a wonderful company.

スタッフさんの対応は抜群です。気軽に話しかけてくれてフレンドリーです。パイロットの方は慎重な運転のかたで、まじめ、解説もわかりやすかった(ハワイのかたです)です。今まで乗ったヘリコプターのなかでいちばん安心の乗り心地でした。
延々と続く広大な火山灰と土地に半ば飽きが来てしまいましたが そのうちコハラコースト、ワイピオバレーの鳥肌ものの美しさ!!!!これはヘリの上からでないと味わえない美しさだと思いました。途中クジラの親子の遊泳を上から発見した私がパイロットに知らせると丁寧に 全員が観れる角度で見せてくれて感激しました。
広い広いハワイ島の醍醐味を短い時間で凝縮して楽しみたいというかたは、ぜひお勧めのアドベンチャーです。

helicopter tour

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We loved our helicopter tour! Our first time in a helicopter and we both had a few hesitations, but the ground crew was very helpful and supportive and Koji, our pilot, was wonderful. He made an effort to circle around each area so that everyone would have a great view of the area. The tour was awesome, we felt like we saw all the highlights on the island and really got a feeling of how the lava flows and how the island has changed over the years. We would definitely recommend this tour. The highlight of our trip to the Big Island.

Highly recommend!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

This was an extremely unique experience. Some of the views can only be experienced from a helicopter. Waterfalls, lava flows, flights deep into the valley are just some of the sights on this tour. The pilot/guide is extremely knowledgeable and makes the trip fun as well. Well worth the cost and would highly recommend for any individual or group. I can only imagine that each trip would be different due to environmental conditions such as lava flows and rainfall so it is perfect for first timers and repeat guests.

Kilauea Volcano Doors-Off Helicopter Tour from Hilo [Not Operating]

Be Aware!!

Reviewed by: crfolgate

This would be a great trip IF you don't get stuck in the backwards seats. These seats are a total rip off since you don't get to see where you are headed and when there is something cool to see well too bad it's already past. Pilot does a good job of trying to circle around so everyone see's but there's no way for the backward seat folks to see anything really well. If you decide to go I STRONGLY recommend that you get guarantee's that you get a front seat or front looking seats only. My wife and Mom had great seats and enjoyed the views I'm happy about that but I wish I had saved the money and sent them up without me since it was two hours of flying backwards and barely seeing anything. You have been warned. :O
**** Also you should also be aware that the photo's of all the cool lava flows are really old. We saw very little lava and after the flight we found out they use old photo's for advertising. Pretty views are to be had but not much lava.

Best bang for buck of heli tours

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

The staff was fantastic - friendly, helpful, and safe. Let alone the views and vistas you get to see - this is the best bang-for-the-buck of helicopter tours, with a full 2 hours in the air. The pilot, Koji, was very knowledgeable of the area and led an incredibly informative and fun talk over the intercom. Koji also provided a very comfortable ride that was much more mellow and safe than I was expecting (I'm afraid of heights and I LOVED IT, so don't let your fear of heights worry you, you'll be fine with these guys). Excellent work from everyone and I'll be back soon : )

Kilauea Volcano Doors-Off Helicopter Tour from Hilo [Not Operating]

Great experience with one caution

Reviewed by: Dawn

Had a fantastic time! Our guide, Jesse, grew up on the island and was a wealth of information about not just what we saw on the tour, but also about other activities on the island. Word of caution: if you book through a third party like we did, after you receive confirmation, call Paradise to verify your group size. We showed up as scheduled to discover that someone (don't know if it was Paradise or Hawaii Activities) incorrectly entered the size of our group as two instead of three. We couldn't take the tour on our scheduled day because the group was overbooked. Luckily we were able to go the next day and Paradise had availability. They took great care of us once the error was discovered, but if you're on a tight schedule, don't risk missing out. Call ahead! Inconvenience aside, this is something you should do and was well worth the cost!!

This bike tour was one of the most fun experiences of our trip to the Big Island! Our tour guides, Emily and Willy, were stellar! Very safe, informative, and very personable. Because of the bike tour, you were able to see a lot of sights that would not be available by just hiking through the facility.
