Big Island Spectacular Circle Island Helicopter Flight with Landing Option

Like being on the moon

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Our pilot was friendly, very personable with each one of us. I loved how he used our names as if we already had knowledge of what he was about to share with us. That was a fun way to learn. Amazing how large this volcano is!! Later in the day we drove from Hilo down to the area so we could touch the lava in person. Felt like we were on another planet. Lava and desolation for as far as we could see. Thanks for this experience. Blue Hawaiian Helicopters are the BEST!!! Awesome pilot and staff!!

ハワイ島 乗馬ツアー コハラ・コーストの牧場をゆったり乗馬! <午前・午後/英語ガイド>by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

1.5時間のロングトレイル

Reviewed by: やっち

昔、カナダでカウボーイをやっていたこともあり
久しぶりの乗馬でした。

1800エーカーというありえない巨大な牧場を舞台に
どんどん馬を走らせて行きます。
私と一緒に参加したバージニア出身の男性は初心者でしたが、丁寧なレッスンのもと
非常に上手に乗り越すことが出来るようになってました。

トロッティングやキャンタもやらせて頂き、
また、ある程度はスピードや道なりも変えて走らせて頂き本当に満足。

今回は2歳の娘はつれて来れなかったですが、
いつかのせてあげたいな。8歳からOKみたいですよ!

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>

最高の時間

Reviewed by: Ayu Suzuki

私は、私が生まれる前に、パパやママが溶岩を見に行ったことを聞かせれていて、この遊覧飛行をとても楽しみにしていました。ワイコロアはとても天気が良かったのですが、マウナケアの方角は雲が多っかたので、ちょっと不安でした。不安は当り、天候が悪いので、溶岩が見れるヒロ方面はツアーが中止になってくれました。ものすごく悲しかったけれど、安全を第一に考えてくれるスタッフの皆さんに、残念な気持ちと裏腹に安堵の感がありました。日本人のパイロットの人が、ワイピオ渓谷も素晴らしいですよ、でもキャンセルしても構いません。ツアー料金は全て返しますとまで言ってくれて、パパとママにお願いをしてワイピオ渓谷のみのツア-に行くことにしました。日本でヘリコプタ-には乗ったことがあったけど、離陸のとき、ハワイ島の大地を飛んでいくとき、その広大な迫力に感動しました。少し雲があったり、途中で雨が降ってきたけれど、ワイピオ渓谷、まるで違う世界にきたような、夢をみているような感じがしました。渓谷の合間から流れ出る、たくさんの滝、飲んでみたくなりました。渓谷の中を飛んでいるときちょっと怖かったけれど、12歳の私でも多くの感動を味わうことができました。

Kohala Whale Watching Tour by Ocean Sports | Kids 0-5 Ride for Free [Dec - Mar]

Whale Watch!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

It was great. As soon as we got out to the ocean, we spotted a mother and a baby whale. We were there for a couple of hours, and we probably saw 5, 6 whales. The staff and the captain did a great job catering all the guests (maybe about 30 of them on board). The naturalist explained a lot about the humpback whales, and it was very educational.

I'd highly recommend this one. It's very family friendly also, and the little kids were very excited to see the real whales in the ocean.

Hawaiian Canoe Surfing & Paddling Tour Adventure from Waikoloa - Hulakai

Very cool experience!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Canoe surfing was a lot of fun! It is like surfing on a canoe. Our 4 yo and 6 yo kids loved it, too. It does take a lot of effort on the adults part so be prepared to paddle. Our guide was excellet. We had some great conversation while waiting for each set to roll in. It was definitely worth the price for this experience. We did show up when originally scheduled, but the waves weren't big enough so they promised to call us when it would be better to come out. As promised they called us the next morning (they offered a whale watch if the waves weren't good enough before we had to leave). We were glad we re-arranged our schedule to do this. We will probably do it again when we go back.

初めてのハワイでした。
ハワイのサンセットを船の上で見てみたいと思い、英語のアクティビティだったのですが思い切って申し込んでみました。

日本人は私たち夫婦のみ。でも周りの参加者もスタッフのみなさんも優しくて、とてもいい時間を過ごすことができました。
野生のクジラも見られましたよ(^^)

お料理はお肉が多かったですね。もう少し野菜が欲しかったかな。カクテルとデザートのケーキはとてもおいしかったです。

Kohala Coast Sunset Cocktail Sail Cruise with Open-Bar [Apr-Dec]

Whales & Cocktails

Reviewed by: Ryan & Kate Weichman

Nate and the rest of the crew did a very nice job with the cruise. They were cordial, knowledgeable, and very helpful (thanks to Nate for keeping my mai-tais full and even finding a non-alcoholic drink for my pregnant wife :-)). Although we didn't see any whales the cruise was still very fun and the cocktails were fantastic!

"Hawaii Activities" could have done a much better job at communicating with us and Ocean Sports about where to meet. We were told to meet in the lobby of the Marriott for a shuttle... The shuttle never came and we had to do all the leg work to find out that we could have simply went out to the Ocean Sports hut right out on the beach in front of the Marriott. Concentrate on the details instead of the money please.

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>

ヘリでしかわからない景色が見れて最高

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Laveのオーシャンエントリーが現在はないとのことで、ヘリにしました。
前日まで曇りで心配しましたが、快晴に恵まれ、迫力のある景色が見れました。
過去の噴火口があちこちにあり、過去のlaveの流れたあとを目にすることができるし、時の流れでlaveがどのように変化するか、乾燥地帯と多雨地帯の相違も目で見て自然のダイナミックさを感じることができました。また、laveの流れで寸断された道路や、現在活動中のpuoo火口内のlave(ちょっと遠くて、もう少し近づいてほしかった)、オーシャンエントリーに歩いていく人たち。laveに関するものが一望できました。
いっぱい写真も撮りましたが、帰って見た写真と実物の迫力がこれほど違うかとびっくりするぐらいでした。
laveの活動が活発になったら、もう一度ヘリで飛びたいと思う印象的なフライトでした。
迎えに来てくれた人や、ヘリの整備士の活動も見れたし、受付の人、パイロットはみんな親切でとても楽しいフライトでした。

今、キラウェアはスリーピー!?

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

 海に流れ落ちる溶岩、流れる溶岩を見たいと思い、ヘリコプターツアーに参加しました。英語解説だったのでで詳しいことはよくわかりませんでしたが、ヘリコプターから見下ろすハワイ島は、昔地理で勉強した地形のでき方そのまま、自然そのままな様子をしっかりと見ることができ面白かったです。
 ただ、目的の火山があまりアクティブでなく、のんびり溶岩が流れている様子が何カ所か見られるのみでした。それも上空からだと動いているかどうかは実感できません。今(今日?)溶岩はスリーピーとのこと。溶岩が噴出していたり、海には落ちていたりする様子はありませんでした。熱い溶岩がない訳ではないのですが午前中のフライトなので、溶岩がところどころ赤くなっていることが分かる程度で、夜だったら見え方は多少違うのかもしれません。2ヶ月くらい前に予約したので、火山の状態がどうかは運によるところが大きいのでしょう。この状態ならハイキングと星空ツアーの方が、より近くで流れる溶岩を見られてよいかと思いました。火山の状態をチェックしながらどのツアーにするか考えるとよいかもしれません。
 とはいえ、ヘリコプターは天気によって飛べないことがあり、過去2回、他のツアー会社ですが天気のせいでキャンセルになっているので、飛べてよかったです。

I chose to do this adventure for my birthday while we were in Kona. Melissa, our guide, was wonderful. She did a great job of sharing all of the history of the ranch and also the local sites. The horses were matched to us perfectly. I'm an experienced rider so really enjoyed having a horse that was spunky! We were able to trot and canter and Melissa was very attentive. If we go back to Hawaii we will definitely do this again!!!

Hawaiian Canoe Surfing & Paddling Tour Adventure from Waikoloa - Hulakai

I Love Canoe surfing!!

Reviewed by: mynmgh1

We've been to Hawaii several times, but this is the first time we canoe surfed. This was such a fun activity, and since we purchased it on sale, the value was great! The men who guided us were so nice! They were so friendly and knowledgeable. Not only was it fun, but extremely interesting. They told us a lot of history about outrigger canoeing. The tour was supposed to be a half an hour, but lasted about an hour. Just a heads up you will paddle so there is a bit of exercise (nothing outlandish). Also, if you get sea sick you may want to take Dramamine, since you have to wait for waves just floating there. I would love to do this again!!

We had a great time on the waterfall tour!! Chris G. was an amazing guide. The waterfalls were not as impressive as I imagined, just OK. The wealth of information that was shared by Chris was great! He knew about the culture and plants like he was born there! We had also learned that he was a guide on the Zipline we were going to do in a couple of days. We didn't have him as a guide on the zipline but we did get to see him again. We want to come back soon and go on the kyak ditch tour! Thanks Chris for a wonderfull day!!!

The two guides who went with us are wonderful as they were concerned for our safety and comfort. It was a very calm sea the day went out so waves were few. They also showed us the sights of the bay and, since waves were few, they let us use their snorkel gear for a great snorkel experience.

Ocean Sports Kohala Coast Snorkel Cruise with Lunch and Open Bar

Black Sand Snorkel Sail

Reviewed by: Helt Family

When we go to tropical destinations we make a point of booking a snorkel sail sometime during our vacation.
We have gone on a number of them in the Caribbean and Hawaii and have really enjoyed them all.
Our all time favorite was the Holo Holo charter on Kauai that took us over to Napali.
My wife and I, as well as our 3 boys, really like getting out on the ocean in a smooth running catamarran.
The Black Sand Snorkel sail was a blast. We really enjoyed the Sea Smoke and the awesome crew. Kane was very friendly and knowledgeable, and Captain Pat was great as well.
One of the main reasons I booked this particular snorkel sail was that it was close to our condo villiage in the Waikoloa Beach Resort. I think it may have been the only one available in that area since most of the others were out of the Kona area.
The only things I would not comment positively on were the fact that the breakfast offering was not good. All they served were some sliced oranges. Other sails I have been on ha

Catamaran Black Sand Snorkel

Reviewed by: Paul

Excellent. To start, we went out on the Sea Smoke, little did we know, this was owned by James Arness (Gun Smoke TV show) and he raced this from LA to Hawaii and beat the pack by 2-days… So we were sailing on a piece of history.
Crew was awesome and extremely hospitable. Equipment was very good; food and beverages were high quality and fresh.
We arrived at the dive spot and it was amazing, sea turtles to say the least. The black sand beach was amazing and really different than the typical white sugar sand that most beaches are made of.
I would recommend this to all skill levels and all ages.
On the way back they sent up the sails and turned the engine off, we enjoyed the speed and stability that 60’ catamarans are famous for.
If you have a chance, don't miss this opportunity to view the Big Island and its beautiful coastline from the ocean… Well worth the 4-hour snorkel adventure and very convenient to find as this is anchored at the Waikoloa Marriot.
