I have been going to Hawaii every year for the past few years, participating with specific goals in mind for my trips. This time, I hadn't decided what to do until just before departure, but two days before leaving, I happened to be looking at Veltra and came across a Cessna flying experience. I thought, "This is it!" and signed up. I confirmed my reservation on the day I arrived in Hawaii. Since it was my first time on a Cessna, I was particularly nervous until takeoff. I was holding the control yoke, but I was surprisingly amazed at how easily we took off. Although the staff handled the actual flying 100%, the moment the Cessna soared like a bird in the wind was breathtaking. Within seconds, the buildings below became smaller and smaller. Thanks to the staff, I felt like a bird for several minutes. Thank you for this precious experience. It was unforgettable, and I didn't feel that the cost was high at all.
ここ数年毎年ハワイに行ってますが旅の目玉となる具体的な目的を持って参加しております 今回は何をやろうか出発直前まで決まらなかったのですがたまたま出発2日前にveltraをみてましたらセスナ体験操縦が目に飛び込んできました これだと思い申込ました 予約完了を確認したのはハワイに着いた日でした セスナに乗ることが初めてだったので離陸するまでは特に緊張してました 操縦桿は握ってましたが意外に簡単にふわりと離陸したので少し驚きました 操縦そのものは同乗のスタッフが100%行なっているので簡単なことではないでしょうが セスナ機が風の中を羽のように舞い上がった瞬間は感動しました そして数秒もたたないうちに真下に見える建物はどんどん小さくなっていきました 数十分間スタッフのお蔭で鳥になれました ありがとうございました 貴重な体験でした 記憶に残る体験なので決して料金は高くはないと感じました
私は気分が悪くなったりしなかったのですが そのような方も中にはいらっしゃるようです 高いところから下を見下ろすのは好きではありませんが セスナ機では問題なかったです 不思議なものです

If you have a teenager you know how hard it is to get them to spend time with you, let alone actually participate in a family activity. Our 14 year old actually took his nose out of his phone to do this with is. He was taking videos and pictures (sometimes even with his parents!) and had a blast. The guides were amazing and had great stories about the ranch and island. 10/10

The buggy ride is longer than I expected. We travel in a group with two instructors and about seven to eight buggies. At several spots, there are explanations from the instructors and photo opportunities. The views are all amazing, and the instructors take photos for you, so you can get great pictures with your companions. The road has both paved sections and gravel paths, and while it can be bumpy and quite shaky, driving isn't too difficult. The maximum speed is about 20 km/h, with an average of around 15 km/h. It’s a fun experience, and the scheduled two hours fly by.

This trip was with three senior friends to the Big Island of Hawaii. We were looking forward to this tour, the main event of our last day. The sunset from the summit of Mauna Kea was wonderful, but the starry sky afterwards felt like being inside a dome, allowing us to truly feel the universe. I'm really glad I participated. It became the best memory. Thank you to our guide for working hard to communicate in Japanese.

It's colder than I expected. They can lend you a fairly thick down jacket and pants, but it's still so cold that you might shiver, so I recommend bringing warm clothing to wear underneath.

I participated in a sunset and stargazing tour at the summit of Mauna Kea on the Big Island. It was a small group tour with about 10 people, which made for a relaxed experience.
The sandwich we had along the way was delicious and satisfying. The sunset from the summit was truly beautiful, and I was moved by the view spreading over the sea of clouds. The starry sky after sunset was also amazing, shining brightly in a way that only a high place without city lights can offer.
What made me happy was that we were the only Japanese participants, but our guide was Japanese. In between explanations to the other groups, he provided detailed information about constellations and celestial bodies in Japanese.
For those considering going to Mauna Kea individually, I recommend joining a tour. You can enjoy the breathtaking views without worrying about driving on mountain roads or managing your health at high altitudes. If you want to see the sunset or love stargazing, definitely consider participating!
ハワイ島でマウナケア山頂のサンセットと星空観測ツアーに参加しました。4グループ10名ほどの少人数ツアーだったので、ゆったり過ごせて良かったです。
途中で食べたサンドウィッチが美味しくて満足。山頂からの夕陽は本当に綺麗で、雲海の上に広がる景色に感動しました。日が落ちた後の星空も、街明かりのない高い場所ならではの輝きで最高でした。
嬉しかったのは、日本人の参加者は私たちだけでしたが、ガイドさんが日本人だったこと。他のグループへの説明の合間に、日本語で星座や天体について詳しく教えてくれました。
個人でマウナケアに行くか迷っている方は、ツアー参加をおすすめします。山道の運転や高地での体調管理など、ツアーなら安心して絶景を楽しめますよ。夕日を見たい方・星空好きの方はぜひ参加してみてください!

I have flown about 2 million miles, but I always wanted to hold the control stick myself at least once. While planning my trip to Hawaii, I learned about an activity for experiencing piloting a small aircraft and decided to sign up. The scenery was amazing, and I was moved by the feeling of being one with the airplane. The only regret I have is not preparing a pilot-style costume shirt in advance for this opportunity.

Having zip lined before, I highly recommend this tour. The transportation to the ranch and a well organized. At the ranch we drove with Stone who gave us a tour of the ranch on the way to the zip line base camp, pointing out filming sites, was a nice add on that I didn’t expect. The zip lining itself was with JT, Ethan, and Aiden and the guys were awesome, specially JT, made us all feel at ease, cracking jokes and making the atmosphere fun, relaxing everyone. Safety is top notch and Ethan and Aiden were awesome helping everyone land at the platforms safely. The little handrail bar that you can hold onto as you zip make it great for a first time experience and the zip lines are also organized in a way that it starts easy and gets more fun, which is a lot better than other zip lines I did that start with the big one right off the bat and then you just get small ones at the end. The overall tour is a couple of hours and lots of fun from beginning to end, can’t recommend enough. And and JT I’m only mentioning you 3 times, if you just landed the shot it would be 6 ;)

We seniors received hands-on support and were able to enjoy the experience without any injuries. It was my first time, and the first step was scary, but once I took it, it was exhilarating. I was able to enjoy the zip line against the backdrop of the majestic mountains and the beauty of the sea.
Unfortunately, I couldn't communicate well with the instructor and other participants, but we managed to have fun using simple gestures and a few words.

Shawn is super polite and well educated in many topics regarding the lava, plant life, history and sites on the islands. He was particularly helpful in suggesting to us to change the itinerary so we could see the active eruption and we are so happy he made the suggestion. 100% well worth the private tour. We changed things up and kinda called audibles throughout the day and Shawn was all about it. We had a great dinner and the day was a total success. Thank you.
If you don’t want to be herded in a tour bus and would like the ability to customize, book this!!

Mahalo for taking the time to share your experience with us! One of my favorite parts of just doing private tours is the ability to call those audibles and customize our itinerary based on our guests desires, or in this case the Volcano. Happy that we were able to get to the Volcanoes NP, see the eruption before it stopped, still be able to take you to the other locations we had planned, and enjoy a great dinner! Thanks again!!

The excitement of taking off from Daniel K. Inouye International Airport on my own was exceptional! The view from above was of otherworldly beauty, and I was able to witness the unique features of the volcanic terrain; everything was wonderful.
It was an experience that is rarely possible in Japan, and I had a truly unique and precious experience. I requested a Japanese pilot, and the explanations from the pilot were easy to understand, and the conversation was entertaining (we had a great time with local talk, haha), and above all, I felt a sense of security.
I will definitely participate again when I visit Hawaii. I think I might become addicted to it.
The stories from the owner couple who came to pick us up were also very interesting, and I could really feel their love for airplanes, which made my own feelings about flying grow even stronger.

Everything ran smoothly from our ferry ride to Lanai, to meeting our guide at the island harbour. We saw Shipwreck Beach and the Garden of the Gods, both worthwhile stops, and were introduced to the main beach park, some of the lovely expensive hotels, and a good look at Lanai City. We enjoyed our guide’s stories about growing up on Lanai, and we loved our free afternoon snorkelling on the excellent reef at the beach. The ride home in the ferry was pretty rough, but that’s to be expected on the afternoon rough and windy waters between Lanai and Maui. It was a very expensive day, in our opinion, and our guide sometimes repeated himself, just to keep the patter going. Nevertheless, we had a good day, and would recommend it to anyone with deep pockets, and a desire to experience Lanai.
We travelled in a suburban, not the jeep-style 4x4 we were expecting. It was very comfortable..

First, the Japanese woman who explained the tickets right after we got off the shuttle bus was very kind, and I felt reassured from the check-in for the experience until we got on the bus back!
However, as she mentioned, there were no Japanese speakers after the check-in, so we had to rely on understanding English, which was quite challenging (laughs). By the way, my husband and I don't speak any English at all 🤣. There were videos in Japanese about the precautions for riding the buggy, so that was fine, but when we stopped at the photo spots, the explanations were all in English, so we managed to understand using Google Translate's speaker.
My husband, who is used to driving, and I, who usually don't drive, took on the challenge, but it was quite a long ride, and driving on the bumpy mountain roads in an unfamiliar buggy was exhausting even for my husband, who drives regularly (laughs). I couldn't enjoy the scenery unless it was on a straight road, and since we didn't stop at the photo spots, I couldn't switch places with my husband, which was tough for me 😭💦.
But the scenery was truly overwhelming, and I'm really glad we went!

If you're used to driving, you'll be fine, but if you don't drive often, please be careful! You can get left behind quite a bit (laughs).

We participated as a couple in mid-February. The schedule was manageable, and the guide's hospitality was wonderful. It was so cold at the summit that there was still snow, but they provided warm clothing for free, allowing us to have a comfortable time. Unfortunately, the weather and timing were disappointing. The clouds were thick all day, and we couldn't see the sunset on the horizon. Additionally, since it was a full moon period, it turned out to be more about moon viewing than stargazing, which was unexpected due to a lack of prior research.

また、満月の時期だったため、天体観測というより月見になったことも、事前調査不足による想定外でした。

They came to pick me up earlier than scheduled. After signing some documents, we moved to a few other pickup locations and then headed to Diamond Head. Once everyone gathered, the guide started. I only understood about half of what was said, but it seemed like most of it was jokes. Everyone except me seemed to be native English speakers. However, it was no problem at all if you couldn't speak. The entrance fee and reservation for Diamond Head were handled by Veltra, so you can get in without doing anything. I was dropped off at the entrance of Diamond Head around 8:40, received a bottle of water, and was told to be back by 10:30.
The hike to Diamond Head takes about 30 to 40 minutes one way. There are many bumpy areas and stairs, so I recommend wearing sneakers. It can be quite windy and relatively cold at the top, so having a light jacket might be a good idea.
After coming down, I relaxed on a bench and looked at souvenirs. I was a bit anxious when the return pickup didn't arrive on time, but I thought, "This is America, so it’s probably normal." You also receive water on the way back, which you can decline if you don't want it. The drop-off location can be either the pickup spot or your hotel if it's nearby.
I gave a $10 bill as a tip, which seemed to be the average amount based on what I saw from other participants. I joined as a solo male traveler, but I wasn't singled out or anything; it was a straightforward and nice tour. If you can understand some English, this option is cheaper than a Japanese guide with tips included, so I think it's sufficient. For those who can use Lealea, it's easy to go that way. If you take The Bus, you get dropped off in front of the tunnel, so there's quite a bit of walking, but it's cheaper.
予定の時間よりも早く迎えに来てくれました。書類にサインして、他のピックアップ場所へ何箇所か移動して、ダイヤモンドヘッドへ。全員集合すると、ガイドが始まります。半分くらいしかわかりませんでしたが、ジョークが大半だったような気がします。私以外は英語ネイティブっぽかったです。でも喋れなくても全く問題なしです。ダイヤモンドヘッドの入場料や予約はベルトラがしてくれますので、何もしなくても入れます。8:40くらいにダイヤモンドヘッドの入り口で降ろされて、お水渡されて、帰りは10:30にココ!と言われました。
ダイヤモンドヘッドへのハイキングは片道だいたい30〜40分くらい。ガタガタのところや階段も多いので、スニーカーをおすすめします。上の方は風がとても強くて、割と寒いので、薄い上着あるといいかもしれないです。
降りてきてからは、ベンチに座ってのんびりしたり、お土産みたりしていました。
帰りは時間通りに迎えが来ず、少し不安でしたが、アメリカなのでそんなもんだろうと。
帰りも水を渡されます。要らなければ断れます。降ろす場所はピックアップ場所か、泊まってるホテルが近ければ送ってくれます。
チップは余っていた10ドル札を渡しました。他の参加者を見ててもそのくらいが平均かなと思います。
男1人で参加でしたが、特にいじられることもなく、さっぱりしていて、いいツアーだと思いました。
多少英語が聞き取れれば、日本語ガイドチップ入りよりも安いので、こちらで十分だと思います。
レアレア利用できる人はそれで行くのが楽です。ザ・バスで行くと、トンネルの前で降りるので割と歩きますが、安いです。
As long as you keep time and follow instructions, there won't be any problems.
時間を守って、あとは言われるがまま動けば何も問題ないです。

Our guide Ryan was off the hook amazing. His passion for his job showed through. Our journey into the back country of Hawaii was exciting and informative. You’re going to get dirty and it’s worth it. If you only come to Hawaii once in your life make sure you take this tour!!!!
Bring baby wipes. The red dirt gets everywhere. Also bring your adventurous spirit. It will be awed!

My wife and I enjoyed our half day tour of Lanai. Our guide, Josh, was very friendly, knowledgable, and a great guy to hang with. I would recommend this tour to anyone looking to visit Lana'i.

I participated in a buggy tour! We stopped at about 3-4 highlights where the guide provided explanations, but since the guide spoke only in English, I had to pick up the nuances. (laughs) They were very proactive about taking photos and shared stories with humor, creating a really nice atmosphere for the tour.
As for the buggy ride, I wondered if it was really necessary to do it in Hawaii. There were also horseback riders enjoying the vast nature, and I thought that might have been more fun... so I felt a bit of regret.
However, it’s definitely worth going at least once to see the filming locations and enjoy the stunning scenery of Kualoa.
バギーのツアーに参加しました!
3.4箇所の見どころで降車して説明して下さいますが、ガイドさんが英語オンリーなので言ってることはニュアンスで感じとります。笑
写真撮影も積極的に行ってくださり、またユーモアも交えながらお話ししてくれるのでとっても良い雰囲気のツアーでした。
バギーについては、わざわざハワイでしなくても良かったかな?と思いました。乗馬の方々もいましたが、広大な自然の中で乗馬されていて、そっちの方が楽しそうだったかな...とちょっと後悔。
ただ映画のロケ地などを見れるのと、クアロア自体景色が素晴らしいので一度は行く価値有ると思います。
I highly recommend bringing a jacket because the shuttle bus is very cold.
送迎のバスがとっても寒いので、羽織ものを持っていくのをオススメします

I didn't feel unwell, but it seems there are some who do. I don't like looking down from high places, but I had no issues in the Cessna. It's a strange thing.
