マウイ島日帰りツアー　天国のハナでディープなハワイを堪能＜滝つぼ遊び付き／朝食付き／英語ガイド＞

大自然のハナ。手付かずの東マウイ

Reviewed by: はにー

とても素晴らしい場所でした。
ホントに手付かずの大自然。HANAへの道は曲がりくねった道や、すれ違いの車がくるとちょー狭い道ばかり。
でも途中の車中から見える景色は絶景ばかり。

ツアー自体日本人は私たちのみ。英語のヒアリングは正直半分くらいしかわからなかったけど、なんとかなりました(笑)。しかも、東マウイツアー中、全く日本人に会いませんでした。同じハワイでもホノルルとは大違い。
途中寄って購入したバナナブレッドもホカホカで美味しかったし。
ただ、ハセガワ雑貨店は目の前をスルーだったのはビックリ。ちょっと見てみたかった。。

東マウイの手付かずの自然とパワーを体験するにはオススメです！

Honolulu to Hilo One Day Fly Away Tour - Volcanoes National Park & Waterfalls

Excellent tour

Reviewed by: GregZ

A bit of a rocky start as we were to meet group picked up at Waikiki at airport. Group was late and no contact with Veltra guide had us nervous for a while. Once settled and arrived at Hilo, 'Captain' Bob took over as our guide. Our group of 10 toured all sites as mentioned and Bob was an excellent guide throughout. He made the tour much more interesting with his extensive knowledge of the island history, geography, plant and animal life, food, climate, etc. He also shared quite a bit science knowledge related to the volcanoes. All was delivered with humor and was very enjoyable. Keep in mind Hilo is known for the amount of rain received - you are advised to bring appropriate clothing.

Honolulu to Hilo One Day Fly Away Tour - Volcanoes National Park & Waterfalls

Good basic Tour

Reviewed by: Jay C

The Tour was great. We only had a day so You cover a lot of ground in short space of time which suited us brilliantly. There was a lot to learn and the guides etc were knowledgeable. The only disappointing thing is that when we booked i felt you were led to believe you would actually see the Volcano up fairly close and your MILES AWAY. !! Also that if you were lucky you may see flowing molten larva...which is rubbish....YOU WONT. It is a HUGE day as the flying from Island to Island isn't made easy and you have far too much down time in the Airport with quite officious airport staff

Reviewed by: Daniel

Tour guide was very friendly an had a lot of cool and interesting things to talk about. I was lucky enough to be on the bus with only 11 other people so it seemed very private. While I didn't see everything I wanted to see, I still saw some incredible things. Overall, I would recommend this tour if your thinking about it.

Oahu to Kauai One Day Tour - Waimea Canyon & Wailua River Cruise with Lunch

Quick Get Away to Kauai

Reviewed by: Ron Morton

This was a very good day trip to the Island of Kauai. While the logistics of the trip were well organized and executed despite a few bumps in the road (an auto accident on the main route upon arrival that forced the planned schedule to be reorganized and a delay on the return flight to Oahu), the very best part of the journey had to be the tour guide, Keone (Juan), who was a virtual encyclopia of Kauai history and culture. Truly an entertainer, funny, insightful and sensitive to the needs of his passengers. Every tour should have a Juan on it. Kauai is a beautiful, quiet island devoid of the chaos and traffic of Oahu. It is especially friendly and laid back. The day trip is a great introduction to planning a return visit for a longer stay. And Waimea Canyon is breathtaking.

Oahu to Kauai One Day Tour - Waimea Canyon & Wailua River Cruise with Lunch

Really awesome tour

Reviewed by: Elly

My friend and I really wanted to see the filming location of Jurassic Park so we signed up for this tour to the least visited island in Hawaii. We were very impressed with the scenery. Everything was also very organized and arranged very professionally (no lateness). What made the tour really stand out though, was our tour guide Juan who told us many stories which gave us a greater understanding into life on the island. We loved the tour a lot. The only drawback was we had to wake up really early but I guess that can't be helped considering we did a day tour from O'ahu.

Volcano Nat'l Park

Reviewed by: d52matthe

Really great tour that included so much of the island. Loved the stop at Mona Loa and the Orchid Producers. Jani, our driver was extremely knowledgeable and gave us a great deal of inside information about the island, Hawaii. The stop at Rainbow Falls gave us a beautiful view info about Hina's home. If I could change anything, I'd shorten the tour by about one hour. The kids (6 and 10 years old) were really exhausted by the end of the day. Then again, no trouble getting them to bed that night :-)

Too much bus

Reviewed by: Cheryl

I was really excited to visit the big island since it was my first time. We were staying on Oahu but wanted to see volcanos. The trip was exactly what was published but they didn't mention that most if the time was on the bus. We were hoping when we got to the national park we would be able to hike a little but everything was very short stops. I would not recommend if you are an active person and want to explore.

Honolulu to Hilo One Day Fly Away Tour - Volcanoes National Park & Waterfalls

Misleading Information

Reviewed by: Viviane

The name of the tour is Volcano Adventure but the actual volcano-related activities are very limited and a disappointment. They pick you up at 5:00 am and by 2:00 pm you have not done any volcano activities. It felt like we were being taken to places just to spend money: a dinner, a macadamia plant, an orchid greenhouse, another restaurant. And when the volcano activities finally start, you do not get anywhere near the active volcano. You can't see it at all. The tour's material show pictures of flowing lava and they say that "This tour company cannot guarantee the viewing of active lava flow". This is very misleading. The reality is that they know for a fact that you will not be anywhere close to the flowing lava because, as they explain once you are in the bus in the Big Island, there are simply no roads to get to it.
They kids got really bored and were very disappointed. So were we...

Tour beyond expectations. FLIGHT WARNING!!!!

Reviewed by: dylanbarter

We had such an amazing time. We had Capt Rob as our guide and he was great. The volcano tour was great and Rob was very accomodating for breakfast and lunch needs knowing most of us had come over on planes from Oahu.

Flight was a huge disappointment. If you have the choice fly Hawaiian not Go! Airlines. We were dropped off at the airport in Hilo at 6pm and our flight back to Oahu didn't depart till 8:30. Not much to see or do at such a small airport. It ruined our day and destroyed our dinner plans for the evening. Everyone else on the tour were flying with Hawaiian and departed straight away. We were not given a choice in airlines but wish we had.

Honolulu to Hilo One Day Fly Away Tour - Volcanoes National Park & Waterfalls

Tour was okay, Hawaiian Airlines may be better

Reviewed by: sofia

- It's a really long day and not sure it was worth it. The only thing you can get at the Big Island that you can't get at Oahu is the volcano.
- Flight was cancelled. Didn't notify us until we called them, after waiting for the shuttle for 15min at 5am. Then they woke us up again in the morning to reschedule. We later learned that it is common for Go! Airlines to cancel flights/be late. So I would recommend to go with Hawaiian Airlines instead; it's a bit more expensive, but likely because it is more reliable. FYI, the number listed on your voucher has normal business hours so if you have an early pick-up, you should call them the day before and get the dispatcher number in case you need to contact them early.
- I noticed they gave us longer times at spots with shopping areas (even if there was not much to see, e.g. the nut factory) and very little time at some of the nature vistas (like 5-7 minutes). so it felt a bit rushed.

Oahu to Maui Day Tour - Hana Rainforest, Waterfall Swim & Black Sand Beach

Very interesting

Reviewed by: Moe

The trip was very educational. Black sand beach was amazing as well as the sacred pools. However the ride had so many twist. Due to traffic, we only had an average of 10 seconds to take pics from within the bus which by the way you'll be spending 98% of the time on. Twisting roads, all day on a bus, and short times at the main area like black sand beach we wanted to see made this a 3 star out of 5.

Big Island Volcanoes Tour

Reviewed by: FPDoc

We very much enjoyed this tour, our tour guide Captain Ron was informative and entertaining and also attentive to our needs (appropriate bathroom breaks, breakfast needs, etc). The volcanoes are amazing! We have 3 kids (Ages 14, 11 and 8) and traveled with friends who have teenage/young adult children and a good time was had by all. My kids loved climbing on the lava rocks and it kept them entertained. The sites in Hilo that we went to were beautiful. Since there was 10 of us, we decided to save a little money and use Go! Airlines instead of Hawaiian Air. Big mistake. They were 2.5 hours late on the flight back from Hilo to Honolulu, which was a big deal with 10 very tired people who were already jetlagged. After reading the reviews for Go! Airlines, it seems like this is a very common occurrence. The ticket agent sent us to the wrong gate, and there was very little communication as the why the flight was late or when we were leaving. Spend the extra cash and fly Hawaiian.

Oahu to Maui Day Tour from Honolulu - Haleakala National Park & Iao Valley

Too much driving

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Haleakala is not to be missed. To drive all that way and spend a total of 45 minutes at the top was not so good. Too much sitting in the van driving from one sight to another. The most time spent in one place was the resturant for lunch. And way do we need to be back at the airport at 3:30 for a 7:30 flight? Luckily a few of us spoke up and we went to a nice small town and did some shopping and saw some more sights on our own. We got to the airport at 5 and had plenty of time. Do not go on this tour but do it by yourself by renting a car.

Reviewed by: Robert

Positives: our flights were on time and without incident with greeters ready for us at the terminal.
Our tour guide was fun and enthusiastic.
We made it to all places on itinerary without being rushed.
Negatives: I found it unusual compared to other tours that the guide stayed with the bus which meant we didn't get any feedback while visiting sites, only in between.
The coordination of three different groups of customers on different incoming and outgoing flights a) took a lot of time b) distracted the tour guide

If I had to do it all over again I would look for a tour where all customers are on the same flight or leave if customers haven't arrived at designated time / spot within 30 minutes of start time.

Honolulu to Hilo One Day Fly Away Tour - Volcanoes National Park & Waterfalls

A jam-packed day

Reviewed by: Cathy

We took the Big Island Volcano tour from Oahu last week - it was a long but enjoyable day.

Leroy was our guide/driver, and he was everything you could want from a tour guide - friendly, knowledgeable and patient. All of the places visited were interesting. There was no lava to be seen, just steam rising from Kilauea, but we knew to expect this when we booked. Leroy allowed just the right amount of time at each stop, and told us a lovely story about Pele, the goddess of fire, on the trip back down the mountain.

The only slight downside was that the GO Airlines flight back to Oahu was delayed by 2hrs, so it made for a very long day.

Make sure you wear sturdy shoes and take a jacket as the temperature drops significantly when up on the mountain. We were blessed with good weather, but I am told that it does rain quite a bit on the Big Island, so perhaps also take a foldup umbrella.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful island with us !

Big Island Tour

Reviewed by: K Moore

We enjoyed the tour of the Big Island and our guide John was very knowledgeable and pleasant. We did not appreciate having to wait nearly an hour upon arrival at the 'Big Island' airport for a second plane to arrive with further passengers. Also, as with all other tours, MANY fewer stops at commercial places where one is expected to buy would be great. There is more of value one could do in the time than trawl shops.
