ヘリコプター遊覧飛行 ワイメア渓谷+ナ・パリ・コースト<英語ガイド/リフエ空港発>

光の反射が少し残念

Reviewed by: こまわり, 2022/06/18

体験談を読み、前席〈ファーストクラス)であれば、光の反射がなく絶景が見れるとのことでしたが、前席でも光の反射で見にくい時がありました。でも、後席よりは格段に良いと思いますので、ファーストクラス指定が良いと思います。
ツアー催行日の前日の夜に催行会社からホテルに電話があり、予定していたフライトが整備点検のためキャンセルになったとのこと、代替のフライトが2時間後でしたので大きな問題はなかったですが、ホノルルから日帰りので予定の方は、帰りのホノルル行きのフライトは余裕を持ったスケジュールにした方が良いと思います。

Kauai Waimea Canyon Sightseeing, Kokee Nature Walk & Coffee Tour with Lunch

Nice Adventure

Reviewed by: Rosanna , 2022/04/01

This was a fun day. We saw a lot of nice sights. I wish we could have had more time at each location, though. We ended up going back to a couple sights on our own the next day. Jonna was friendly and answered our questions. The lunch wasn't very good by the time we got to eat it. (We picked it up to eat later) Maybe it depended on what you ordered. All in all a nice day and some fun sights.

Small-Group Circle Island Airplane Tour with Window Seat - Air Ventures Kauai

Air Ventures Kauai Tour

Reviewed by: Rick L., 2022/02/26

Great experience from checking in to touchdown landing. Pilot was friendly and informative. He made sure passengers on both sides of plane received good views. And they were spectacular views! Flight lasted about 75 minutes. Well worth the price. This tour surpassed my expectations. I highly recommend Air Venture Tours.

Kauai Airplane Tours - See Na Pali Coast, Waimea Canyon, Jurassic Falls & More

Great view of Na Pali Coast and the entire island from sky

Reviewed by: Turtle, 2022/01/07

I have hiked Kalalau Trail, stayed Ko ke e state park, took a boat tour to Na Pali coast and tried to see the coast line from all the angle. This Air tour is definitely one of the addition to it. By looking at the coast line from sky gives me more history of how the structure was created.

It was great view with a nice perfect weather with a good tour guide/pilot. He was very informative about buildings, natures, movie sites, tourist information, etc.

This air tour was more affordable than a tour with helicopters. It is a really nice addition to a budget traveler who want to see the island from sky, expanding the scope.

Ultimate Kauai Private Island Tour with Expert Guide

Orlando was awesome

Reviewed by: Lee, 2022/01/01

First, our driver/guide Orlando was simply amazing. He was quite knowledgeable and helpful. Orlando’s sense of humor kept us relaxed and laughing. Orlando picked us up right on time. We mentioned to him we would need frequent restroom stops. Not only was he accommodating but he was very picky about where he stopped being conscious of cleanliness. Speaking of cleanliness, our vehicle was spotless and very comfortable. We loved his guidance and took him to lunch. I cannot recommend this tour more highly. When you book, be sure to ask for Orlando!

Blue Hawaiian Helicopters Kauai Eco Adventure Flight from Lihue

Unforgettable experience and views!

Reviewed by: Sarah Harris, 2021/12/28

When I knew I was bringing my kids to Kauai, this was the number one experience I wanted to share with them. I had done a similar flight over 25 years ago with my family and had never forgotten it. We booked the flight easily through Veltra (when trying to book all our experiences in one website).
From the moment we got to the offices their staff were friendly and their safety protocol was top notch (which also included Covid safety restrictions as well while we were there). They fit my family of three with another couple and off we went. The views were breathtaking! It was so hard to believe that views you can usually only see in a movie or TV show we’re playing out before your very eyes. I will never forget passing by Jurassic park waterfall with the soundtrack playing in my ears. I love things like that!
The pilot was constantly telling us about different things we were seeing telling us what to expect in the rest of the trip as far as directions. She was also very attentive and offered to fly back a smoother route when unfortunately one of my kids did have side effects from the motion.
I can’t wait to go again and maybe I will try there helicopters on the various different islands. It is an unforgettable experience and so worth the money. I wish we would’ve bought our DVD now!

  • Amazing views!

  • Headphones to hear pilot (and soundtrack)!

  • Lots of room inside for my tall kids and me!

  • Nature is so amazing!

  • Great way to see these views without hiking!

Kauai Waimea Canyon Sightseeing, Kokee Nature Walk & Coffee Tour with Lunch

Waimea Canyon and the south and west side sightseeing on/off tour with lunch!

Reviewed by: Cara Christy, 2021/09/08

This experience is a really good sightseeing tour. We covered about 1/2 of the island Kauai from the south, the west, and the north side from about 9a-4p.The places we stopped were great and the were plenty of bathroom breaks! I did think there would be more hiking involved because of the description. There is a nature trail at Koke’e State Park that is nice. Our guide was a native Hawaiian with great stories to tell!
The shops in Hanapepe were fun to shop at! We loved the swinging bridge there! And, the stop at the coffee farm was great with amazing coffee to be taste tested and purchased. You could also see the coffee beans being grown on the trees! It was a fun trip!

Kauai Waimea Canyon Sightseeing, Kokee Nature Walk & Coffee Tour with Lunch

Spent little time at main sights and hours waiting for food!

Reviewed by: NomadeYogini, 2021/09/04

I had the worst experience on this tour, had to wait about an hour and a half for the driver to do a food pick up and then wasted an extra hour plus just idling at a pic nic site after everyone had finished eating their lunch, while we speeded through all the main sights and barely had time to take photos of the breathtaking Waimea Canyon!!!!! Poor timing would be an understatement. It was my last day on Kauai and wish I had found another tour company to see Waimena Canyon!

Perfect tour for a first visit to Kauai!

Reviewed by: Charisse Palaad, 2021/08/15

This tour was absolutely wonderful! It was my family’s first visit to Kauai and it was overwhelming seeing all the activities that are available on the island. We settled for this as a way to see a lot of the main sights and it was the PERFECT way to spend the day! We had Kana’e (sp?) as our guide and she was absolutely a joy to spend the day with. She talked stories with us, shared her culture with us and told us all the places to go for our trip! The sights were gorgeous and we recommend this to anyone who is visiting for the first time!!

Kauai Waimea Canyon Sightseeing, Kokee Nature Walk & Coffee Tour with Lunch

Excellent tour!

Reviewed by: John - NJ, 2021/08/06

The tour was at an easy pace and covered the West side of the island concluding with spectacular views and vantage points of Waimea Canyon. Our driver Rosario was thorough with explanations, local trivia, and very personable to everyone. The pickup and drop offs from the hotels were punctual. The lunch was also good as were the local stops in Hanapepe and Waimea. Each stop including those of Waimea Canyon allowed for plenty of time to use the facilities, investigate the area, and take plenty of photos. The tour bus had plenty of space, and was air conditioned and comfortable. I would recommend this tour for any visitors to the Garden Isle!

Secret Kauai Waimea Canyon & Coastlines Private Island Tour with Optional Hike

Amazing tour and exactly what we were looking for.

Reviewed by: Anurag, 2021/06/06

Had a wonderful private tour of the main attractions of the island. Simon was amazing and made the tour an absolute joy for us. We were looking for something with a pick up and drop off, as we could not manage to snag a rental car and this was perfect. Learnt a lot about the history and culture of the island as we drove around the different parts. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a lovely, laid-back and well informed tour of the island with a great guide.

Wonderful way to be introduced to Kauai!

Reviewed by: Susan in Boulder, 2020/02/27

As someone who had never been to Kauai before, I booked this tour as a way for my boyfriend and I to get acclimated to the island. We were so lucky to have Kana e, a wonderful native tour guide, as our driver and tour guide. She made the entire day so much fun, and extremely interesting. We both loved her stories of the island, of her family, and her enthusiasm. I greatly recommend this tour, especially if you can have a native guide as good as Kana e!!

Waimea and Wailua

Reviewed by: Sue, 2020/01/25

We enjoyed the Waimea Canyon Tour. The coach driver was friendly, funny, and informative.

The Wailua River Cruise was disappointing and boring. The driver of the boat had no enthusiasm in his voice and the visuals of the river were unimpressive. Since you can no longer enter the Fern Grotto cave, this stop is no longer amazing as it used to be.
