I was moved by the flowing lava and the steam from the crater. 流れ出る溶岩と噴火口の蒸気に感動しました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I was amazed by the completely different scenery compared to what I saw from the ground at Volcanoes National Park a few years ago. According to the pilot, whether you can see the lava varies by day, but fortunately, we were able to see the lava flowing like a river from above.

The price is a bit on the higher side, but there’s no other place where you can get so close to such an active volcano, so I highly recommend the helicopter tour here.

Not only can you see the lava, but you can also experience the natural wonders by viewing the pure white steam rising from the crater that erupted 20 years ago and the vast land covered in lava from the sky.

It was also fun to be guided over jungles and waterfalls before reaching the lava.

The pilot's narration is all in English. For those who understand, the cheerful explanations with jokes are very entertaining, and you can also ask the pilot questions through the microphone during the flight. I think even those who don’t understand can enjoy just watching.

There were also elderly passengers using canes, but the staff provided good support, such as transporting them by cart to the helicopter and guiding them to seats that made getting on and off easier.

I definitely want to recommend this to friends visiting the Big Island.

数年前に火山国立公園で地上から観た時とは全く違う風景に驚きました。 パイロットの方によると溶岩を観れるかどうかは日によって違うそうですが、幸い私達はドロドロと川のように流れ出る溶岩を上空から観る事が出来ました。

値段は少々高めですが、あそこまで活発な活火山を間近で観る事ができる場所は他にはないので、ここでのヘリコプターツアーはお勧めです。

溶岩だけでなく20年前に噴火した火口から吹き上げる真っ白な蒸気や、溶岩に覆われた広大な大地を空から観る事で自然の驚異を実感することができます。

溶岩に行くまでにジャングルや滝を上空から案内してくれるのも楽しかったです。

パイロットの方の案内は全て英語。 解る方はジョークを交えた陽気な説明がとても面白いと思いますし、飛行中に手元のマイクからパイロットの方に質問をする事も出来ます。 解らない方も観ているだけで楽しめると思います。

同乗者には杖をついたご老人の方もいらっしゃいましたが、ヘリコプターに乗るところまでカートで送迎したり、優先的に乗り降りのしやすい席に案内したりと、スタッフのサポートにも好感が持てました。

ハワイ島を訪れる友人にも是非進めたいと思います。

The Big Island was big... BIGアイランドはBIGでした・・・

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated in this helicopter tour with a Japanese pilot, which was a bit pricey. Previously, when I rode a helicopter in Kauai, the pilot was a foreigner, and the other guests were from the mainland (United States). Of course, we were listening to a Japanese explanation tape, but I really wanted to hear a live explanation! So, I chose Blue Hawaiian, hoping to have a chance to have a Japanese pilot.

As a result, I had the most satisfying flight experience. The vast black land seen from above, the red, bubbling lava, the valleys, waterfalls, and expansive pastures... the beautiful coastline. It was a two-hour experience full of surprises.

日本人パイロットのヘリということで、少々高額ですが参加しました。
以前、カウアイ等でへりに乗った際、外国人のパイロットの方で、お客さんは、私達と、本土（アメリカ）かた来た方でした。もちろん私達は、日本語の説明のテープを聞いていたので、やはり生の説明が聞きたい！と思い、できれば、日本人の方にあたる可能性もあるブルーハワイアンを選びました。
結果、最高の満足できるフライト体験をさせて頂きました。
上空からみる広大な黒い大地、赤々と煮えたぎるような溶岩
そして渓谷や滝そして広大な牧草地帯・・・美しい海岸線
驚きがいっぱいの2時間でした。

Our Helicopter ride over the Big Island was the highlight of our trip. Seeing lava so close was once in a life time! Joel our pilot was awsome and had a great knowledge of the island. He put us at ease with his profesionalism and personality. What a great time!

This was an activity I had wanted to experience for the past two or three years, and I finally got to fulfill my wish.

I wanted to see the scene of lava flowing into the sea, but since it's a natural phenomenon, it can't be helped.

The helicopter noise I had imagined was not bothersome, so it was an enjoyable experience.

２,３年前から一度体験したかったアクティビティでしたがやっと念願かないました。

溶岩が海に流れ落ちる場面を見たかったですが、自然現象なのでやむを得ないですね。

想像をしていたヘリの騒音は気にならなかったので楽しい体験でした。

It was magnificent. 壮大でした

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The helicopter was safer and more comfortable than I expected. It was fine even with a little wind.

The staff's service was very kind, allowing me to enjoy the experience with peace of mind.

Throughout the journey, there was a detailed explanation by the pilot, Jason, but unfortunately, it was only in English, and I could only understand parts of it. Since conversations could only be done through the microphone, even if I said, "Wow, the volcano is amazing," the person next to me couldn't hear it.

That aside, the scenery was magnificent, dynamic, and beautiful. You can see the main points of the Big Island in about two hours, so even if you don't fully understand the explanations, I think it's a very worthwhile attraction.

　
　へりは思ったより安全で、快適でした。ちょっとくらい風が吹いても大丈夫。

　スタッフのサービスはとても親切で、安心して楽しむ事ができました。

　全行程でパイロットのジェイソンさんによる丁寧な解説がありましたが、残念ながら英語のみで私は部分的に分かる程度でした。マイクを通してしか会話ができないので、「わ~火山がすごいね~」とか言っても、隣の人に聞こえないのでした。

　そんなことはさておき、風景は壮大で、躍動的で、美しいハワイ島の主要なポイントを約２時間で見れるため、解説があまり分からなくても、参加する価値がある、とてもいいアトラクションだと思いました。

Hawaii Big Island Helicopter Tour – Volcanoes, Valleys & Waterfalls Flight

Like being on the moon

Our pilot was friendly, very personable with each one of us. I loved how he used our names as if we already had knowledge of what he was about to share with us. That was a fun way to learn. Amazing how large this volcano is!! Later in the day we drove from Hilo down to the area so we could touch the lava in person. Felt like we were on another planet. Lava and desolation for as far as we could see. Thanks for this experience. Blue Hawaiian Helicopters are the BEST!!! Awesome pilot and staff!!

Experience the vastness of the Big Island of Hawaii! ハワイ島の広さを実感！

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I was picked up from the hotel in Waikoloa, and although I was told that a confirmation couldn't be made, I was able to ride in a helicopter piloted by the only Japanese pilot (Mr. Mochizuki) whom I had requested via email in advance. Mr. Mochizuki provided explanations in both languages to the American couple accompanying us and to us, which made it very enjoyable.

It was my first experience in a helicopter, and there was no vibration, with glass all the way to the floor. I was able to see the lava flowing into the ocean at Kilauea Volcano, and it was amusing to see the cows grazing on the vast Parker Ranch appearing as tiny dots. I was surprised to hear about the elementary school that was affected by a tsunami, located on top of an 800-meter cliff in Waipi'o Valley, and we got very close to a waterfall that has a drop of 1,000 meters, allowing us to fully enjoy the majestic nature.

Waikoloa is a dry area with brown lava land, but as we got closer to Hilo, we experienced sudden rain and saw much greenery, making for a wonderful experience of the vastness and climate differences of the Big Island in a short time! (Driving around takes a whole day, right?) Additionally, on the way back, although we had to wait for a few minutes, we could purchase the video from that day that was on board the helicopter.

ワイコロアのホテルからピックアップしてもらい、確約は出来ないと言われていましたが事前に直接メールでお願いしていた唯一の日本人パイロット（望月さん）の操縦するヘリコプターに乗せていただき、望月氏が同乗のアメリカ人カップルと我々に2カ国語で交互に説明して下さったのでとても楽しかったです。
ヘリコプターは初体験でしたが、震動もなく足下までガラス張りなので、キラウエア火山では海に流れ落ちる溶岩を見ることが出来、広大なパーカー牧場では放牧されている牛たちがまるで点のように小さいのがおかしく、ワイピオバレーでは800ｍの絶壁の上にあった小学校が津波の被害にあった話に驚き、落差1000ｍもあるという滝のすぐ近くまで寄ってくださるなど雄大な自然を堪能できました。
ワイコロアは乾燥地帯で溶岩の茶色い土地ばかりですが、ヒロに近くなると突然の雨で緑も多くハワイ島の広さと気候の違いなど素晴らしい体験を短時間で出来ました！（車で周遊するのは1日掛かりですよね）
また、帰りには数十分待ちますが、ヘリコプターに搭載されていた当日のビデオを購入することも出来ます。
