ダウンヒル（自転車）ツアー　世界遺産キラウエア火山の山頂から駆け降りる爽快サイクリング！＜半日・1日／食事付／ヒロ地区送迎付＞

大変お世話になりました。

6歳の息子と一緒に参加してきました。
バンが並走してくれるということで子供連れの私にとってとても強い味方でした。
案の定息子は途中で疲れてしまい、
バンに乗車！
景色もキレイでしたし、いろいろな植物やキラウエア火山についても知ることができました。
途中でバン乗車しましたが、ハイクやバイクどれもとっても楽しく息子も喜んでいました。

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

Volcanoes

Reviewed by: Donald

This was by far the best activity I have experienced in both my visits to Hawaii. The tour guide (Eric) was exceptionally knowledgeable and he was also very patient with the group. His assistant (Willie) could not do enough for us. The activity was fun, enjoyable and conducted in a very safe manner. Both guides did everything possible to ensure we all had an equally good time. We learned a lot, burned some un-needed calories and had a fun time too! I would give this activity my highest recommendation. You won't be sorry you did it.

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

Great Fun

Reviewed by: Ed Gallagher

Our guides, Willy and Eric, were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Eric took the time to point out a million different peculiarities of the Hawaiian landscape and Willy was very funny and entertaining. The two of them are a great team.

The sights on the volacano were amazing and my wife and I took tons of pictures. We never felt rushed and enjoyed it thoroughly.

The food was very well prepared and quite delicious. My wife and I ate the turkey club sandwich and were impressed when we received a gourmet sandwich, not some week old mystery meat thing.

I would highly recommend this event not only because of the beautiful sights, but also because of the best service one could ask for.

I was absolutely stunned by the beauty of East Hawaii. Hilo can often be a victim of superficial judgments. I know it is the rainiest city in the USA and that it is routinely beset by tropical downpours but we saw rainbows, waterfalls and green, green, green… Thank you.

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

Thanks again

Reviewed by: Aimee and John

John and I wanted to send this email thanking everyone at Paradise for a once in a lifetime experience on our vacation. We took one of your newer trips which flew out of Kona, over the valleys, drop off in Hilo for the day (with paid rental car), then over the Volcanoes, and back to Kona. We really enjoyed the entire day. In fact we hadn't originally thought we would get to visit the Hilo area since the drive from Kona is a couple of hours. So not only did we get to see beautiful valleys, waterfalls, and running lava from air but we got to explore the Rain forest national Zoo, The Volcano national Park, Rainbow Falls, and Akaka Falls all by land as well. Also our pilot Steve was so informative and friendly he really helped make our day just that much more special. I'm sure he flies the same routes every day, yet you couldn't tell. His passion for the land, and surroundings was contagious. Thanks again, we included some of our amazing trip photos.

We took some amazing pictures on this tour. You can tell that the tour operators are artists, because they take you to some very awe inspiring sights. The beauty I witnessed on this tour will stay with me for the rest of my life. The island has such drastic changes in it's beauty and scenery. I believe that everyone should come here and see this at least once in their life.

This is a great activity except if you're prone to motion-sickness then it is not for you. Two hours was way too long for us. I was doing well in the first hour when we were shown the volcanoes and mountains but in the second hour I could not keep my eyes open due to my motion sickness. And that sucked because in the second hour is when he shows you the beautiful valleys and waterfalls! Thank God my husband was able to record it for me but it still wasn't the same. I would recommend a 45-minute-1 hour tour but not the 2 hour tour.

Big Island Spectacular Circle Island Helicopter Flight with Landing Option

Big Island

Reviewed by: William

To start off with when we were making reservations transportation aparently wasn't available. Don't let them tell you that. They have vans and make pick-ups from the hotel we stayed in. We took the big island spectacular 2 hour. It was nice. The volcano part wasn't what i thought. I expected to see flowing lava. All you see is the top crust of past lava flows. Even the volcano vent wasn't what I thought it would be. The VOG was so thick thast about all you could see. A little let down. Although the 2nd part was the tropical rain forest. We had a nice ride along the ocean front. Went up the valleys and saw more waterfalls than I could keep track of. Pilot even sighted some whales and circled for us. Wind turbulance in some of the valleys made me tighten my seat belt a bit. Later I learned the pilot is a retired coast guard pilot. Wish I knew that going in, I would have been a bit more relaxed.

Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Tour & Tropical Waterfalls Sightseeing from Hilo

Volcano Visit Disappointing

Reviewed by: Mary Liz

I flew from Honolulu to Hilo early for trip which was scheduled for 8:30 AM. We were delayed starting by about one hour for other guests who took a later flight. My main reason for this tour was to see the volcano. Because of air quality, the observation area was closed. Because of cloud cover, we could not see the top of the volcano. We were able to visit the National Park Visitors Center which was worthwhile.

The tour guide was just fair. We visited several commercial sites.
He tried to make up for the closing of the observation area by stopping at other volcanoes in the park & a lava tube.

We had a great time on the Big Island tour today. The flight was
awesome. The pilot, Koji, did a terrific job. He made sure folks on
both sides of the helicopter saw the sights-Pu'u O'o, lava flowing
into the ocean, waterfalls, etc. It was our first time in a helicopter
and it was a great experience.

The reservationists were patient and informative. The folks at the
terminal were helpful, supportive and very upbeat-they truly seemed
excited for us.

We will be sure to spread the good word about your outfit.

Thank you for making the experience positive, simple and memorable for

Wonderful way to see the Volcano!

Reviewed by: Lisa

I really enjoyed this trip and it was well worth it. We toured the park on bike and enjoyed the beautiful day. The ride was not too difficult for those who aren't in the best of shape like myself. The staff is prepared for rain and also provide snacks and water to keep you refreshed. The only thing I wasn't happy about was that we did not go to *closely* see where the lava hits the ocean; however, it would have been another 16 miles round-trip, so I can understand :). Guide did recommend where we could go park and see it later that evening. All in all it was a great trip with awesome guides!

The views were amazing and we would have missed so many of them if we had not taken the bike ride! I highly recommend the trip and I hope you have the same guides.

Lava Hunting!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We did the "Fire & Falls" tour and loved it (although we both got a bit airsick, but that's not the company's fault, that's just because we're prone to it - the other couple with us was fine). I had picked Paradise because it was the cheapest air tour of the volcano (in terms of cost per minute), but I can't imagine why I would pay more for another company because this ride was everything we wanted.

We did the "doors off" tour and it was a 4-person helicopter (not incl. the pilot), so everyone had a fantastic view. I would highly recommend the doors-off experience. My husband is a bit afraid of heights, and even he agreed that doors-off was worth it (but a bit frightening for him). Our pilot was Jesse and he was a lot of fun.

What I loved is that if a passenger spotted lava, our pilot would circle back (as if we were "lava hunting") and make sure that everyone got a view.

The waterfalls portion was brief, and at the end. The main attraction of this tour is the volcano/lava.

Great!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Our group of 4 booked a "doors off" helicopter ride through Paradise Helicopters. None of our group had ever been in a helicopter before and this exceeded all of our expectations. The front desk staff was courteous and upbeat. The guy doing the safety briefing was thorough and knowledgeable while infusing some humor into the "speech". Our pilot was Joyce and we could not have asked for a better experience. Because there were 4 of us, we took every seat on the helicopter. We were concerned at first about the view from the front-middle seat, but she could still see everything, though you do miss the experience of sitting right by the window.

Joyce did a great job of going over the different areas multiple times so each side of the helicopter could see what was below. Joyce spoke clearly and slowly and we never had a problem hearing what she was saying and she would repeat the "attractions" for both sides of the helicopter.

Open Door Experience with waterfall

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We took the open door with landing at Jack's lava house. It was a very neat experience getting to walk on the lava rock. Be prepared for being wind-blown on the open doors, and take a jacket as it can be chilly in the air. Overall a very nice experience, but don't expect big "red lava flows" as that is not realistic. You can't exactly "feel the heat" and the waterfalls are not close up views they are more from a distance and thrown in at the end, But still pretty spectacular scenery!

Overall the tour was enjoyable, but it could have been better. The driver forgot to pick me up at my hotel and I had to call to remind them.

The sights we saw were great for a first timer to the island, but if I were to come back, I would stay on the west coast and drive over to see the volcano.
