火山の様子やマグマの海への流出、
ヒロの町並み、渓谷内の滝が流れる様子、
とにかくハワイ島の雄大さを感じることができるスペシャルな体験です。
お金じゃ買えない経験です。お勧めします!!
なお、日本語パイロットではなかったですが、

The helicopter ride was amazing! Absolutely unbelievable and breathtaking. The motorcoach bus tour was a bit longer than we expected it to be plus you can only see so much volcanic rock in one sitting before you feel like you've seen it all. But the views were unforgettable. The guides for both the helicopter and bus tour were informative, knowledgeable and made the trip fun. I highly recommend it!!

Nick and Misty did a great job interacting with the group and went out of their way to make sure everyone was comfortable with the tour and the information. Our day was 12 hours long and was very enjoyable from the time we were picked up at our hotel till late in the evening. The volcano lava viewing in the evening was amazing!

Overall the tour was well organised and professional. However due to low visibility from low cloud and rain, the helicopter part of the tour was cancelled and refunded. Since the hotel pick up was 6am, we had already flown to the big island before that decision was made, therefore the package became just an expensive day trip bus ride. We would have preferred to cancel the whole trip if we had known the helicopter portion was not gonig ahead, althought that is the decison of the pilots.
The bus tour and guide was very good and knowleldgeable and could not fault what we did experience.

We did the Circle Island Tour, small group tour which was fantastic. I cannot say enough about this tour. It was approx. 11.5 hours but the day flew by. Our driver Kevin was amazing and informed us about everything. It was a maximum 12 people which made it very enjoyable. Our lunch break we stopped at an Orchid shop and our driver had picked us up Bento Boxes, it was delicious. We saw everything from waterfalls, rain forest, black sand beach, lava tubes, lava fields, and volcanoes and so much more. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone. Well worth the money.
Thank you for the great tour.

初めてのハワイで、ハワイ島に来ました。
とりあえずキラウエア火山を見たいと思っていましたが、レンタカーでは行くまでに時間がかかり1日潰れてしまうのでこのツアーに参加しました。
このツアーの料金が高いので満足できるか不安がありましたが、結果は想像以上に素晴らしいものでした。
パイロットの方が日本人で時折日本語を交えて説明してくださったので理解しやすかったです。
ただ、天候によって中止になることもあるので覚悟が必要です。
私達は乗れましたが、次の時間の人たちは受付をした後中止が決まり、帰っていきました…

11月16日の朝7時のフライトに2人で参加しました!
日本人の参加者は私たち夫婦だけで、かなり不安でしたが、登場してきたパイロットのTOSHIさんがとーっても明るくて素敵な日本人でした。20年のベテランでとーってもお話上手。
一緒に搭乗した外人さんにもわかりやすく、日本語と英語を交えて説明してくれました。
この日の天候は最高!キラウエアの溶岩も、オーシャンアプローチの溶岩もしっかり見えました。それよりもワイピオ渓谷では、ヘリコプターでしか見れない壮大な景観、言葉が出ないぐらい感動してしまいました。世界で13番目に高い滝は、しっかり水が落ちていました。TOSHIさんの話では、前日に雨が降り、朝1番でのフライトだからたくさん水が落ちている、とのこと。昼ぐらいには水はほとんど落ちないでしょう、ということなので、これから参加する方は早い時間のフライトをお勧めします。
フライトに関しては、何の申し分もないぐらいですが、1つ残念だったのが、ホテルの送迎に関して。
5時55分のお迎え予定で、遅れないようにと5分前には待っていましたが、実際に車が来たのは6時10分過ぎ。15分過ぎて迎えが来ない場合は連絡をください、とバウチャーに書いてあったので、連絡しようとフロントに動いてもらったら、車が来るというタイミング。頑張って朝早く起きたことを残念に思ったスタートでした。お迎えのスタッフは日本語ができない人たちなので、文句は何も言えませんでした。
同じ苗字のTOSHIさんとの出会いは、私達夫婦にとって、忘れられない1日になりました。
ありがとうございました!

2016/10/17は、
朝8:20からハワイ島ヘリコプターツアーに参加しました。
ヘリコプターに乗るのは初めてなので緊張しながらワクワクしていました。
搭乗して飛び上がった瞬間は想像通りとはいえ上昇感覚が大変面白かったです。
今回搭乗したヘリは窓が足元まで透明なアクリルで出来ていて、
本当に空中を浮遊している実感が有り、すごかったです。
9時20分に離陸し、
米陸軍基地の上空を通過してハレマウマウ火口に向かいました。
前日の夜に見た時ほど赤く見えませんでしたが、
ここ最近マグマ上昇が顕著だったため火口の一部に赤い溶岩がうごめくのが見れました。
ヘリはそのまま沿岸沿いに飛行し溶岩のオーシャンエントリーを見ました。
これは、火口から流れ出した溶岩が海に流れ込み
その熱で海が激しく沸騰して水蒸気が立ち上っている場所で、大迫力でした。
その後、ヒロ空港に給油のため着陸し15分後離陸しました。
人間は、ここでトイレ休憩でした。
後半は東沿岸を北上し、ヘリでしか行くことのできないワイピオ渓谷の滝を見ました。
滝を間近で見るため断崖絶壁のすぐそばまでヘリが近づいたときはスリル満点でした。
帰りは雲の上まで上昇し、雲海とそびえたつマウナケア山を鑑賞しました。
無事着陸後、ホテルに戻りオアフ島に帰る飛行機の時間まで
クイーンズ・マーケットプレイスという大型ショッピングモールに行き買い物をしました。
ここで地元特産のコナコーヒーなどを買いました。
こうして今回の旅のメインイベントが終わりました。

This was by far the best tour we had done in Hawaii. Marcus the tour guide was top notch. Marcus knew so much about the area, the culture, plants, animals and was just a funny great person to be around. You ride in style in the plush Mercedes van. He took you to many different area's and we even got to see lava flowing, served lunch and to end the night a 5 star restaurant. Everything was included in your price of your tour. By far a MUST do while in Hawaii. You will not be disappointed in this tour or Marcus.

The trip lived up to its description. The pilot made sure both sides received extraordinary views by angling over each side so that all passengers could see the feature. Narration and music added to the enjoyment. I'm so glad we did the waterfall landing add on. The flight up into one of the canyons with many waterfalls plunging down the sides is a never-to-be-forgotten experience.
And the actual landing at the base of one waterfall was amazing. Wish I had brought my bathing suit for a swim in the pool! Thanks to our pilot (Greg)for making this a special experience.

日本語スタッフさんがおもしろおかしくヘリクルーズツアーをしてくれました。
キラウエア火山目当てでいきましたが、ワイピオ渓谷がNo1と伝えられ、いざ渓谷のはざまをヘリで飛び、滝からの虹も見れ、気づいたら感動で泣いてしまったくらいです。
ヘリでしか行けない場所なので、決して高くない。そして、悩んでることとかがちっぽけだと大自然の迫力にやられます。確実におすすめできます。
自分達が飛んだルートやヘリ内の様子、トークやBGMが詰まった世界で1枚のDVDデータも購入できます。($45くらいだったかな)次回もまた絶対乗ります。
