Private Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Tour from Hilo

100% Recomendable cultural private tour!!

Reviewed by: Jose and Claudia

This tour is way better than group tours! The tour was confortable and we stoped at points where group tours wont stop, so we watched more things. Lee is an amazing person, his knowledge about the hawaiian culture and history is extremelly enriching, that guys in other tours took advantage and prefered listening to him than their tour guides.
We stop in every point of the Island such as waterfalls, rainforest, lava tunels, museum of the volcáno, craters, steam points, volcanic beaches, neiberhoods, and on every points and he told us enriching history of that part. We have some time for lunch at the volcano hotel, and he took us back to the airport on time.
In general we recommend this tour rather than groupal tours. Lee is a guy you can trust, dont hesitate in booking this vip private tour.

The scenery tasted from the sky is dreamlike. 空からの味わう景色夢色よ。

Reviewed by: MIYAKO TONAMI

The weather was favorable and it was a sunny day. The flow of the experience included: checking in for the helicopter, receiving guidance, finding the dress room, listening to the explanation from the staff in the room behind the reception, announcement of seat assignments by group, walking to the helipad, and putting on headphones and life vests. I would have liked to have a paper with a written flow and a map. It was a wonderful experience. Thank you very much. For those who might get motion sickness, it's better to take medication.

Kilauea Volcano Helicopter Tour キラウエア火山ヘリコプター遊覧

Reviewed by: 石川敏也

On October 17, 2016, I participated in a helicopter tour of the Big Island starting at 8:20 AM. It was my first time on a helicopter, so I was both nervous and excited. The moment we took off was just as I imagined, and the sensation of rising was incredibly interesting. The helicopter I boarded had windows made of clear acrylic down to the floor, giving me a real feeling of floating in the air, which was amazing.

We took off at 9:20 AM and headed towards the Halemaʻumaʻu Crater, passing over a U.S. Army base. It didn’t look as red as it did the night before, but due to recent significant magma rise, I could see some red lava moving in parts of the crater. The helicopter continued flying along the coast, where we witnessed the lava ocean entry. This is where lava flowing from the crater enters the sea, causing the water to boil violently and steam to rise, creating a spectacular sight.

After that, we landed at Hilo Airport to refuel and took off again 15 minutes later. This was also a restroom break for us. In the second half of the tour, we flew north along the east coast and saw the waterfalls in Waipiʻo Valley, which can only be accessed by helicopter. When the helicopter got close to the cliffs to see the waterfall up close, it was thrilling.

On the way back, we ascended above the clouds and enjoyed the view of the sea of clouds and the towering Mauna Kea. After a safe landing, we returned to the hotel and went shopping at a large shopping mall called Queens' Marketplace until it was time for our flight back to Oahu. I bought local specialties like Kona coffee here. This concluded the main event of my trip.

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.

You'd be missing out if you don't go. It was definitely not an expensive helicopter cruise. 乗らないと損。決して高くないヘリクルーズでした。

Reviewed by: HONU

The Japanese staff provided a fun and entertaining helicopter cruise tour. We went with the intention of seeing Kilauea Volcano, but we were told that Waipi'o Valley is the number one spot. When we flew through the valley, we saw a rainbow from the waterfall, and I found myself moved to tears.

Since it's a place you can only reach by helicopter, it's definitely not overpriced. The grandeur of nature makes your worries seem insignificant. I can definitely recommend this experience. You can also purchase a DVD with footage of our flight route, the inside of the helicopter, the commentary, and background music (it was around $45). I will definitely ride again next time.

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。

My first time in Hawaii! 初めてのハワイ島☆

Reviewed by: Chabee☆

I used the service on September 25, 2015.

As expected, Big Island‼︎
The views from the sky were breathtaking.

The opportunity arose on our first day in Hawaii Island when we found the helicopter pad, Blue Hawaiian Helicopters, on the way from the airport to the hotel‼︎
Originally, we planned to go to Kilauea, but the moment I saw the helicopter... I couldn't suppress the desire to see everything from above(^^;;

On our last day on Hawaii Island, we had a morning flight at 7 AM to Honolulu, and fortunately, we were blessed with clear skies. We were able to fully enjoy places and views that we could never have accessed on our own, and we had a wonderful time.

The English guide was entertaining and explained things in a clear manner, sometimes seriously, and he engaged with us throughout the flight. At the scenic points, he maneuvered the helicopter 360° so that everyone could see the same view. Thanks to the pilot's kindness and cheerfulness, the atmosphere was relaxed throughout the journey♪
For my husband and me, who were visiting Hawaii Island for the first time, it was the perfect activity.
And this year, our late summer vacation will be... Maui!
I think we will be relying on VELTRA again.
I'm looking forward to it☆

2015年9月25日に利用させていただきました。

さすが、Big Island‼︎
空から眺める景色はどれも圧巻でした。

きっかけは、ハワイ島初日、空港からホテルに向かう途中に見つけたヘリポート、ブルーハワイアンヘリコプターズ‼︎
元々、キラウエアに行く予定でいましたが、ヘリを見た瞬間…上から眺めたい欲望が抑えられませんでした(^^;;

ハワイ島最終日、お昼にはホノルルへ向かう為、朝イチ7時のフライトでしたが、運良く晴天にも恵まれ、決して自分達だけでは行けない場所、見れない景色を十分に堪能でき、素敵な時間を過ごすことが出来ました。

英語ガイドでしたが、面白おかしく、時には真面目に分かりやすく説明して下さり、何かと声を掛けて頂き、絶景ポイントでは全員が同じ景色を見れるよう360°操縦してくれます。パイロットの優しさと陽気さで、移動中は終始和やかムード♪
初ハワイ島の私達夫婦にとっては、ピッタリのアクティビティでした。
そして、今年も遅い私達の夏休みは…マウイ島！
VELTRAさん、またお世話になると思います。
今から楽しみです☆

Reviewed by: くるり

I signed up for the helicopter tour because I wanted to take in the expansive views of the Big Island and see the flowing lava.

During my visit, the lava was at a lower flow rate, so I couldn't see much of it flowing, but I was able to witness the red masses burning through the trees.

Additionally, I could view areas that are difficult to reach by car, such as Hilo and the northern mountainous regions and waterfalls, from the air.

Although it is expensive, it was a satisfying sightseeing flight.

ハワイ島は広いので、空からぐるっと眺めたいのと、流れている溶岩が見たくて申し込みました。

溶岩は丁度少な目の時期でしたので、そこまで流れている感じは見ることができませんでしたが
赤い塊が木々を燃やしている様子は見ることができました。

また、ヒロ方面や北部の山岳地帯・滝など
車では行きにくい方も空から眺めることができました。

高額ではありますが、満足できる遊覧飛行でした。

Private VIP Tour & Volcanoes National Park After Dark (from Hilo)

Fascinating Guided Tour of an Incredible Island

Reviewed by: Jen Bianco

We did not really know what to expect with this tour and was very pleased with our private VIP tour with Lee from Wild Orchid Tours. He showed us many hidden gems on the island, as well as gave us quite a lot of background info on Hawaiian culture. We came away well versed in the lore of Pele, the Volcano goddess and the history of Kīlauea's activity.

The visibility at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park was bad the day of our tour, but Lee came prepared with rain ponchos and walking sticks. We were thrilled he took us out to see the lava flow after sunset. We saw so much, the waterfalls don't seem worth mentioning.

The bonus is that Lee is fascinating himself. He's knows his Big Island, but that's just the beginning. After our tour, my friend and I almost wanted to extend our stay so we could take Lee and his wife, Renata, out to dinner.

Well worth the money. I highly recommend Wild Orchid Tours.

It was an incredibly exciting tour. It was my first time riding in a helicopter, and without a door, no less! The entire tour was in English, but I made sure not to miss the important security information, and with my heart racing, I got to sit right next to the pilot. Everything was perfectly necessary, and I was able to see the flowing lava, the rushing underground streams, and even enjoy a view of a rainbow from above after the rain. It was the best flight ever. I would love to ride again if I have the chance.

とにかくエキサイティングなツアーでした。
ヘリに乗ったのも初めて。しかも扉無しなんて(^^) 全て英語のツアーでしたが、大切なセキュリティのところだけは聞き逃さずに、ドキドキしながらもパイロットのすぐ隣に乗せてもらいました。
全てが必要必然ベストで、溶岩が流れる様も、また地中を勢いよく流れていく様も、また雨上がりに虹を上から眺めることもでき、最高のフライトでした。
