Kohala Whale Watching Tour by Ocean Sports | Kids 0-5 Ride for Free [Dec - Mar]

Morning Cruise - saw multiple whales

Reviewed by: Jonathan Smits, 2018/02/05

Because it was a morning cruise, they made good on sighting whales. There were multiple sightings. The amount of time on the boat was good, because after the sightings, I could actually relax and just enjoy the rest of the boat ride. The refreshments were tremendous. The crew was very generous and informative. I know the crew couldn't get as close as I would have liked, because of regulations, but I sure would have liked to have closer pictures and more majestic surfacings. But, overall we were happy with the cruise.

日本語パイロットでなかったのが残念でした。
あと、前に座った2人が、ベージュ、赤色のトップスにショートパンツの洋服を着ていたせいで、ガラスにその色が反射して、スマホで写真撮ろうとしても映り込んで、最悪でした。
参加される方は長めの、せめて膝下丈のパンツで色は黒色、そしてトップスも黒色を必ず着ていくほうがベストですよ。

Awesome whale watching and snorkeling cruise

Reviewed by: Lorena, 2017/12/12

Our 10am whale watching cruise was cancelled but we were accommodated on an other cruise for 10:30am. This one included snorkeling. So it was a big win for us. We did get to see a few whales and dolphins. The crew was amazing. They were friendly and informative. They took the time to chat with us. They gave us some background on the whales and clear instructions before getting in the water for snorkeling. They were very attentive and ready to help everyone during the snorkeling. This was an awesome tour. I would definitely book this tour again and recommend it.

Sunshine Helicopters Kohala Coast Waterfalls & Waipio Valley Flight

The coolest thing we did on our trip!!

Reviewed by: Jill, 2017/12/10

Soooo glad we did this - it was well worth the cost! It will be something all of us remember forever for sure. The flight itself was so beautiful - seeing all those huge waterfalls and pools they create that we would’ve never been able to see any other way. The valley’s and the cliffs on the ocean side looked spectacular too especially from the helicopter!! The flight was so comfortable and fun.. felt secure but also got a kick out of the ride of it! Our pilot (Bo) was awesome - played great music and told us interesting historical info about the different areas we were seeing. Really nothing could be better!!

Reviewed by: AKKIE.O, 2017/10/19

本当はワイピオ渓谷での乗馬をしたかったけど、予約が取れず断念。
牧場での乗馬の予約が取れたのでこちらに参加しました。
日本語は全く通じませんでしたが、簡単な英語で、笑顔で説明などしてくれて、ほとんど困りませんでした。
ウエスタンブーツ、靴下、パーカー、ジャケット、バッグなど貸してくれるので手ぶらで問題なしです。
貴重品は預けましたが、バッグに飲み物とカメラ、携帯を入れて持っていきました。
スニーカーでもいいでしょうが、ブーツは借りたほうがいいと思います。
靴下は持っていたので自分のを履きました。
1.5時間、めいっぱい乗ってたかな?
広大な牧場の敷地内を駆け足したり、速足したり。
夫がほぼ初めてだったので、歩くだけかなと思っていたら、こちらの様子をみて、
やってみる?と聞いてくれて、何度が走ったり。
馬もある程度人を見ますが、おとなしく、いうこと聞いてくれるので、特に心配もありませんでした。
来年もまた来てね!と笑顔^^
ありがとうございました☆また来たいです^^

Kilauea Volcano Helicopter Tour - Blue Hawaiian Circle of Fire Flight from Hilo

Felt like a kid again

Reviewed by: Sarah, 2017/10/07

This helicopter tour was certainly one of the highlights of our trip. Checking in was a breeze. The pilot (Karl I think) was great, really friendly and knowledgable and told us fascinating stories about the land. His mixed tape for the flight was a great accompaniment to the flight. Nothing can quite prepare you for how amazing it is to fly over a volcanoe crater spewing lava, I was truly awe struck and felt like a kid again! It really is the top experience I would recommend on the big island.

ハワイ島 乗馬ツアー コハラ・コーストの牧場をゆったり乗馬! <午前・午後/英語ガイド>by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

初めての駈歩体験

Reviewed by: まるみ, 2017/10/03

2.5時間コースに家族4人で申し込みました。
8時半集合で時間通りに集合場所に行きましたが、9時半集合の1.5時間コースのグループが9時前に到着したために、結局その人達と一緒にスタートすることになり、準備が出来てから1時間近く待たされることに…
その間なんの説明もありませんでした。
馬の扱い方を教えてもらって出発。皆で高原をどんどん登って行きます。
天気も良く、見晴らしも良好。途中何度か速歩をしながら1時間ほどがすぎました。
他の人の投稿にもあるように、自分たちも1.5時間コースになるのかなぁと思っていましたが、途中で「They go Long Course」と言われ自分たちは別のルートへ。他のグループは下山し帰っていきました。
更に高原を登って行き、途中で初めての駈歩を体験。少しの時間でしたが、すごい速さと振動に馬から落ちないよう必死にしがみつきましたが貴重な体験となりました。
その後絶景ポイントに到着。マウイ島が見晴らせる場所で山と海をバックに写真撮影をし下山となりました。
正味の乗馬時間は2時間15分程。
1.5時間コースは「標準コース」2.5時間コースは「ロングコース」とした方が誤解がないのではと思います。
乗馬自体は最高の天気、ロケーションで星5つですが、現地の人の対応がいまいちなので星4つです。

Kilauea Volcano Helicopter Tour - Blue Hawaiian Circle of Fire Flight from Hilo

Great way to experience the Volcanoes National Park!

Reviewed by: mcavalheiro, 2017/09/27

Let me start saying one thing - Kilauea Volcano is one of the most active volcanoes on Earth and it's definitely a MUST SEE & DO if you are visiting Hawaii. I think everyone should explore the Volcanoes National Park as much as they can, and since I've hiked hiked the most popular sights before, this time I decided to get the bird's eye view from Kilauea.

From start to finish Blue Hawaiian Helicopters was very professional and delivered a great service. After the check-in we watched a video about safety and what to expect on the tour. Due to the weather conditions my original flight was cancelled, however I was able to reschedule to a later time. It was worthy the wait! The aircraft was modern, very comfortable, large windows and the pilot was excelled and very experienced. He not only made us feel safe, but also shared a lot of interest facts about Hawaiian geology and history.

We flew over dozens of waterfalls and over the most recent lava flows and it was crazy to see how close the lava got to some houses couple of years ago. The most incredible part thou was for sure seeing the lava flowing into the ocean and watching the bubbling lava lake inside the Pu'u 'O'o Crater (which you can only see if you are doing an air tour).

I will never stop sharing these incredible memories with everyone around me.
Thank you VELTRA & Blue Hawaiian Helicopters for the amazing experience. I highly recommend this tour, whether you are visiting the island just for a day or more, make sure to include a helicopter flight on your wish list.

  • Lava flowing to the ocean

The Blue Hawaiian helicopter tour was easily the best event our group had while on the Big Island. Everyone loved it. BH uses very high quality helicopters and our pilot was well trained and very skilled. We all agreed that at no time did we feel unsafe. Our pilot was also very well informed and told us a lot of interesting things about the volcano and the Hilo side of the island. But, the views were the most memorable part of the trip. Don't forget your camera or you'll hate yourself.
