ハワイ島 ジップライン7本 コレコレ滝の上を滑走 <英語インストラクター>
The zip line is amazing!
ジップライン最高
Activity Date: 2023/07/07 | Posted on: 2023/07/30

I always appreciate Beltora's help. Just before starting the zip line, it started to rain, and I almost lost heart, but I enjoyed it immensely without worrying about the rain. The staff were very kind, and I was able to have a great time!

いつもベルトラさんにはお世話になっております。ジップラインはスタートする直前に雨が降り出し、心が折れそうになりましたが、雨など気にする事無く、めちゃくちゃ楽しめました。スタッフさんもとても親切で、楽しい時間を過ごす事が出来ました\(^o^)/

Hawaii Zipline Tours - Big Island Waterfall & Rainforest Zip Adventure
Best zip line adventure!
Activity Date: 2023/07/20 | Posted on: 2023/07/22

I liked how you start small for those who a less experienced and afraid of heights. Our guides were awesome in explaining everything and giving history of the area. The funniest part was when Angela hid behind some bushes and started making pig sounds, causing one of the participants to jump back! LOL! The guides really did a great job making it fun and relaxing my nerves.

Hawaii Horseback Riding Tour with Waterfall Swim at Umauma Falls
Who needs experience?
Activity Date: 2023/05/17 | Posted on: 2023/05/19

Ive always had a fear of horses but this activity helped get over my fear. The ladies were absolutely amazing in teaching us how to ride the horses and giving us a good laugh while on the ride. This activity gives you a different view of the land surrounding the waterfall. A must do when visiting for sure!

Deluxe Big Island ATV Tour & Waterfall Swim at Umauma Falls
A must do!
Activity Date: 2023/05/17 | Posted on: 2023/05/19

If you’re looking for a fun and not so hot time this is the perfect activity. The area where this is held is fresh and vibrant and does a good job in showing out the land. Being able to run wild in a ATV is great and a good way to get dirty and ready for a swim at the falls! Early is the best as it can get packed later on and you’ll get the waterfall all to yourself. They provide drinks and snacks for you and the crew is a very cheerful and knowledgeable bunch that give you tips on how to enjoy your time in the island!

Hawaii Zipline Tours - Big Island Waterfall & Rainforest Zip Adventure
Zipling
Activity Date: 2023/03/15 | Posted on: 2023/03/22

Overall great experience. There was construction traveling to the location and they waited for the people that were stuck in traffic. The staff was very friendly and answered and questions we had. They helped take pictures at the end by the waterfall for everyone. I felt very comfortable with the safety equipment. Especially going over the waterfall and the other really far drop. I would definitely recommend this company.

Kilauea Volcano Doors-Off Helicopter Tour from Hilo [Not Operating]
Great Experience
Activity Date: 2022/12/26 | Posted on: 2022/12/28

Tianna was our pilot and was a phenomenal one. She handled that very tiny helicopter without a problem. I have a tendency to be motion-sick and I had zero problems with her at the stick.

We were disappointed that there wasn't any lava flowing but we got great views of Kilauea's craters and the changes since we were last on the Big Island. She made sure everyone got a good view of what we were seeing and was quite knowledgeable about the area.

They give you advice about what to wear and I fully advise everyone to pay attention to it. Temp in the chopper was ~50°F with buffeting winds from the rotors. Because we listened, we were comfortable. The only complaint was the wind was strong enough to make my eyes water and it was hard to see at times. That said, it was a fun experience and I highly recommend it.

Mauna Kea Evening Stargazing & Daytime Solar Viewing Tour with Dinner
Clouds and storms ruined it
Activity Date: 2022/12/18 | Posted on: 2022/12/20

We had hoped the weather would clear, but, unfortunately, despite our tour guide’s best efforts to find some clearing, we were beaten by the weather. Our guide, Hunter, was extremely knowledgeable and tried really hard to wait for some sign of being able to observe anything, but had to cancel with no luck. I can imagine it would have been spectacular to see and hear the wealth of information he would have been able to provide if we could have seen it.

Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Tour & Tropical Waterfalls Sightseeing from Hilo
This tour includes some amazing stops
Activity Date: 2022/12/02 | Posted on: 2022/12/03

I was lucky to be in a small group for this tour so the guide was very flexible with the schedule and we had enough time to enjoy each place. Our guide was a very knowledgeable local man who knows a lot about Hawaiian history and how the different spots we visited have changed through time.
All the stops we made at the volcano's park were totally worth it but my favorite spot in this tour was the Akaka Falls, what a gorgeous place!!!

ハワイ島 乗馬ツアー 3段に流れるウマウマ滝でハイキングや滝壺遊びもあり! <午前・午後/英語ガイド>
Horseback riding and waterfall play are the best!
乗馬と滝遊び最高
Activity Date: 2022/11/23 | Posted on: 2022/12/02

This was my third time horseback riding on the Big Island, but this time it was a tour that not only included riding but also allowed us to enter the waterfall pool. The weather was great, and the scenery was beautiful. At the waterfall pool, we were able to get close to the falls on a stand-up paddleboard. The water was a bit cold, but it was such a rare opportunity that I decided to jump in. I couldn't swim smoothly, but it was a valuable experience! The American family I was with had three boys who dove into the waterfall pool from the rocks, and the dad followed, with the mom joining in at the end! They looked like they were having a blast. There was also a zip line tour that went over the top of the waterfall (that looked pretty speedy and fun too). I definitely want to participate in that next time. Overall, it was a really enjoyable tour!

ハワイ島での乗馬は3回目でしたが
今回は乗馬だけでなく、滝壺にも入れるツアー、天気も良く景色もよく
滝つぼではサップボードに乗り滝の近くまで行けました。水は少し冷たかったがめったにない機会なので思い切ってはいりました。さすがにすいすいと泳ぐことはできなかったですが、貴重な経験!同行したアメリカ人の家族は男の子3人は岩の上から滝つぼにダイブ、お父さんも続き最後はお母さんも!
すごく楽しそうでした。他のツアーでは滝の上を通過するジップラインもありました(こちらもけっこうすぴーどがあり楽しそうでした)
次回はこちらも参加したなと、とにかく楽しいツアーでした。

We had a group of 4 and knew we wanted to do a helicopter tour and this place knocked it out of the part the pilot (Wade) was amazing and all of the staff was great at communicating! They make it convenient by being able to call or text and ensure that you will be comfortable before going up in the air! Would definitely do this again if we ever return to the area! Mahalo!

Ultimate Hawaii Circle Island Sightseeing, Kilauea Volcano & Waterfall Tour
Wish we did it when we arrived
Activity Date: 2022/10/13 | Posted on: 2022/10/15

It was such a great experience! Our tour guide was AMAZING! So personable and knowledgeable. He knew sooo much history. I don’t think there was a question asked he couldn’t answer at all. My favorite stops were the lava tube and volcano summit visits. Incredible views. My wife and I were saying we should’ve done this when we first arrived instead of at the end of our trip. Sooo much great information. Learning about how coffee was made was also great! Keep it up!

Hawaii Zipline Tours - Big Island Waterfall & Rainforest Zip Adventure
Great Adventure!
Activity Date: 2022/09/30 | Posted on: 2022/10/09

This Zip-line Tour was off the hook! David and Josh, along with the other staff, were awesome and very good at what they do! They’re safety instructions were very friendly and clear that made it a really simple and fast process. They’re funny humor kept my wife and I engaged and laughing the whole time which helped break the ice and had everyone conversing. The Zip-Lines are short at the beginning but that’s ok because it was our first time doing this type of activity and helped ease into the longer ones. The grand finale is awesome and are still super stoked about doing it! You won’t be disappointed. Oh! And you have to try the different types of bananas while tracking through the different Zip-Lines and don’t forget to enjoy the views! Once again, thank you Josh and David for a great time and all the info provided! Until next time!

We had a great time on the tour. The description about black sand beacb was misleading we did t go there since it’s not anywhere near hilo but We got to see lava rocks, lava tubes and learned a lot about the National park and plants located on the island! Definitely recommend the tour

There is some hiking (up to 2 miles round trip) involved so definitely wear comfortable shoes and bring a jacket

Great staff, gentle horses, and a fun adventure. We had our 9 year old granddaughter who had never ridden but they went out of their way to make sure she was comfortable and with a horse that she could ride safely.
I have lots of riding experience and was able to enjoy the ride as well; they shared much information about the plants and animals and Hawaiian history. Btw, the swim at the half way point was very refreshing.

Hilo Black Sand Beach Guided Snorkel Tour at Sea Turtle Lagoon
Fun time snorkeling, but we miss the boat.
Activity Date: 2022/09/22 | Posted on: 2022/09/24

We signed up for a snorkeling trip online. Mind you, we’ve done these trips before where they take us out on a catamaran and find some secluded bay where we can go and check out the tropical fish and coral reef and maybe a chance at a sea turtle.

Well, this trip was not quite the same. We did find a secluded bay that had a nice cool reef and tropical fish but we got there by use of a Ford expedition (which had no AC by the way). We then traveled to a second spot by car, where we did get a chance to see a sea turtle, but not much else.

Our snorkel guide was very kind and considerate and made sure that everybody in our small group of four was safe. But it seemed like he was working with one arm tied behind his back, because he had to hunt out the two places for us to dive.
