Hawaii
The experience of piloting an actual airplane, which you can't do in Japan, was truly amazing. Not only the piloting but also the view from above was incredibly beautiful. The pilot and the woman guiding us on the ground were very polite. The pilot spoke only in English, but he kindly instructed us, which made us feel at ease while boarding. Although the tour cost is not cheap due to the weak yen, I believe it's worth it considering you can enjoy the scenery with a private Cessna.
日本ではできない実際の飛行機を使用しての体験操縦は、本当に素晴らしかったです。
操縦だけではなく、上から見る景色も最高に綺麗でした。
パイロット、地上での案内の女性も非常に丁寧でした。
パイロットは英語オンリーですが、優しく指導して頂き安心して搭乗することができました。
円安もありツアー費用は安くはないですが、セスナ貸切で景色を堪能できると考えると価値はあると思います。
Best experience ever!! Thank you gojump. Staff very fun, experienced, and professional
In July, I had an experience. 27 years ago, I flew with my father, and it was an unforgettable experience, so this time I signed up for my daughter as well. On the day of the flight, there were rain clouds, which caused a delay, but while we waited for the weather to improve, we were able to ride in a cart and see various aircraft in the airport, as well as watch takeoffs and landings up close. It was a wonderful experience even before boarding the Cessna. My daughter, who was nervous, was able to enjoy flying the Cessna thanks to the friendly staff, even though she was a bit anxious. The view of Hawaii from the sky was truly beautiful. I will support Hawaii so that we can see that scenery again!
7月に体験をしました。
私自身27年前に父と乗り、忘れられない体験でしたので、今回は娘にもと申込をしました。
当日雨雲が掛かっており、フライトを遅らせる事になったのですが、天候が回復するまでカートに乗せて頂き空港内の色々な機体の説明や離着陸を間近で見ることが出来、セスナ乗車前からとても素晴らしい体験をさせて頂きました。
緊張していた娘ですがフレンドリーなスタッフのおかげでドキドキしながらもセスナの運転を楽しむことが出来ました。
空から見るハワイの景色は本当に綺麗でした。
またあの景色を観れるようにハワイを応援します!
It was my first experience, but the explanations and operations were taught to me very carefully, making it a wonderful experience! I would like to try it again.
初めての体験ですが、説明や操作など丁寧に教えていただいて、とても素敵な経験となりました!また体験したいと思いました。
- Just getting on the helicopter is exciting.
- If you're in the front seat, the excitement during takeoff is even greater.
- The explanation of the mountains by the Japanese pilot Toshi (also known as Sushi) is easy to understand.
He also responds well to active questions.
- I’m glad I purchased the in-flight and flight path recording. The change in passengers' expressions during takeoff was a nice memory.
- I wish I had added the landing option near the waterfall.
・ヘリコプターに乗機するだけでも興奮する.
・前席であれば、離陸時の興奮はより高まる.
・日本人パイロットのToshi(別名sushi)の山の説明もわかりやすい.
積極的質問にも対応してくれる.
・乗機中の機内&航路記録は購入して良かった.離陸時の乗客の表情の変化も記念になりました.
・滝付近に着陸オプションをつければ良かったです.
I have always wanted to try this, so I had been on simulation machines and even tried paragliding. However, due to my daughter's unexpected pregnancy, I ended up participating in the Hawaii trip alone instead of with her. I thought I would try something that I definitely couldn't do with a pregnant woman. Communicating in English? Hmm, I can manage to understand a bit. I figured I should just memorize the life-threatening words and joined solo (I’m quite the brave mom). Since I would want photos anyway, I made a reservation thinking I would jump from the sky in Hawaii, not from the stage at Kiyomizu Temple, and it was worth every penny—GO JUMP was amazing!
On the Cessna, there were five of us: a Japanese person, a family of three, and a young man who was on his honeymoon and was the only one to try it. We encouraged each other as the altitude kept rising, and I thought, "This looks like the view from a jet's small window!" I was both nervous and excited, and the high-energy instructor captured all our expressions perfectly. I thought it would be really scary, but before I knew it, I was PUSHed out and flying.
After that, I just enjoyed the incredible scenery, feeling like a bird, repeatedly saying "Amazing! Beautiful! The best!" in both Japanese and English, with clouds, the sea, and mountains beneath me! The moment the parachute opened and the spin before landing felt cooler than diving, but with the handsome instructor who does 5 to 10 jumps a day, I had no worries at all. I hate the feeling of a vertical drop attraction, but this was nothing like that. I struggled with ear pressure and my right ear became hard to hear, but it was fine after a night's sleep.
In the car on the way back, a man who said he had jumped yesterday exclaimed, "NOT FALL, FLY!" and he was absolutely right. It's not cheap, but I guarantee it's worth every penny. Thank you to all the staff for the amazing experience!
ずっと昔から一度やってみたくて、シミュレーションの機械に乗ってみたり、パラグライダー体験をいっちょかみしてみたりしていましたが、一緒に旅行する予定だった娘の急な妊娠で、急遽1人で参加することになったハワイ旅行だったので、妊婦を連れては絶対に出来ないことをしようと思ってトライしました。英語でコミニュケーション?うーん何とか聞き取れるか。命に関わる単語だけ覚え直しといたらええか、てな感じで単独参加(我ながら肝っ玉母ちゃん)。どうせ写真欲しくなるしな、清水の舞台じゃなくてハワイの空から飛び降りるつもりで予約しましたが、お値段以上GO JUMP、最高でした。セスナ同乗した日本人は私と、娘さんと3人のご家族、新婚旅行で新郎だけ挑戦した若者の計5名で励まし合いながら高度がどんどん上がり、こんなんジェット機から小さい窓で見る景色やん!と思いながら、ビビったりワクワクしたりの全ての表情をハイテンションのインストラクターがバッチリ撮影してくれてました。絶対怖いよな〜と思ってましたが、そんなん言う暇なくPUSHされて飛び出してました。
あとはもう、最高の景色と鳥の心になってひたすら「スゴイ!キレイ!最高!」と日本語と英語で繰り返し、雲も海も山も足下にある感覚!パラシュート開く時と、着地前の回旋がダイビングより冷やっとしたけど、多い時は1日5〜10回はJUMPするというイケメンインストラクターの優しくオモロいタンデムで何の不安もありませんでした。垂直落下アトラクションの内蔵が残る感覚は大嫌いだけど、これは全くありません。耳抜き下手くそで右耳が聞こえにくくなってしまったけど、一晩寝たら治りました。
迎えの車の中で昨日も飛んだと言う男性「NOT FALL, FLY!」と言うてはったけど、ホンマにその通りでした。安くはないけど、それだけの価値は絶対にあると保証します。
スタッフの皆様、最高の体験を有り難うございました‼︎
Absolutely stunning tour- loved the island of Maui so much!!
I signed up for the local meet-up and drop-off with a T-shirt included. Most of the staff didn't speak much Japanese, but we managed. Due to bad weather, I received a cancellation notice via phone and email the day before, but after some correspondence through email, we were able to reschedule and successfully go up. The staff were very kind and attentive.
On the day, the weather was great, and I got to see the most amazing views; it was an out-of-this-world experience and so much fun. Once the parachute opened, I was tossed around, so it's better to scream and enjoy rather than stay quiet to avoid getting nauseous.
There was a notice to wear long pants in advance, but it was fine to wear shorts at your own risk. Initially, I didn't sign up for photos and videos, but they will definitely take some just in case, and later, an edited sample will be sent to you via email. You can still purchase the photo and video data after seeing the sample. I bought it later.
One downside was that the included T-shirt was only available in foreign size XXL, which was too big to even use as sleepwear. Due to the weak yen and rising prices, it has become quite expensive compared to before, but I would love to fly again if I get the chance.
現地集合解散のTシャツ付きに申し込みました。
ほとんど日本語は通じませんがなんとかなりました。天候不良で前日に電話&メールでキャンセル連絡がありましたがメールでのやり取りで日程変更し、無事に飛ぶ事が出来ました。スタッフの方はとても親切丁寧でした。
当日は天気も良くて最高の景色も見られましたし異次元の体験で楽しかったです。パラシュートが開いた後は振り回されますので黙らないでキャーキャー騒いじゃったほうが酔わないですよ。
事前に長ズボン着用の案内がありましたが自己責任で短パンでも大丈夫でした。
最初に写真&動画を申し込まなくでも念のため必ず撮影してくれて、後程、編集されたサンプルがメールで送られてきます。それを見た後でも写真&動画データを買うことも出来ます。私は後から買いました。
ちょっと残念だったのは、付いているTシャツが外国サイズのXXLしか残って無くで寝間着にもならないことでした。
円安&物価高で以前よりは随分と高額になりましたが機会があればまた飛びたいです。
I was considering going with another skydiving company, but they didn't offer transportation, and when I asked their partner company, they said they couldn't operate due to not reaching the minimum number of participants, so I couldn't go on my own. That's why I quickly signed up here.
It was mentioned that there could be a wait time of several hours, but we gathered before 9 AM, arrived in 50 minutes from Waikiki, and once we got there, I checked in on a tablet myself. They gave me four quarters for the $1 locker fee, and after putting my belongings in, I quickly got ready and boarded the plane. It was so fast that I didn't even have time to mentally prepare, and before I knew it, we were flying! We were back in Waikiki by 12:30.
We didn't watch any explanatory videos, and there was only a brief explanation from the instructor in English with gestures, but everything went smoothly! It became a great memory, and I was able to make good use of my afternoon time, which was really nice. I also needed to tip the instructor and the driver for the transportation.
他のスカイダイビングの会社で行こうと考えてましたが、送迎がなく、提携会社に尋ねても最少催行人数に達しないから行けないとのことで、自力で行くことも出来なかった為、急遽こちらで申し込みました。
待ち時間が数時間かかることもあると書かれてましたが、9時前に集合し、ワイキキから50分で到着し、着いたらタブレットで自分でチェックインし、ロッカー代の1ドル分クォーター4枚を下さり、荷物を入れたらすぐに支度をして飛行機に乗り込みました。心の準備が出来ないくらい早くて、あっという間に飛びました!
12:30にはワイキキに戻ってこられました。
説明のビデオなども見せられず、インストラクターさんの英語とジェスチャーでの説明が少しあっただけでしたが、何事もなく飛べました!
いい思い出になり、午後の時間も有効に使うことができ、とっても良かったです。
インストラクターさんと送迎のドライバーさんにもチップが必要でした。
Fantastic way to see the island. Flight was fun and informative. Pilot was great and the ground crew was fantastic. Was shown parts of the island I would never see from the ground. A ride and experience I will never forget.
We were blessed with great weather and were able to see the beautiful sea and mountains. My son had the opportunity to experience piloting, and the pilot was kind and taught him carefully, making it a lifelong memory. Thank you for the photos as well. If there’s another opportunity, I look forward to it.
天気にも恵まれ、美しい海と山並を見ることが出来ました。
操縦体験は、息子が行いましたが、パイロットが優しく丁寧に教えて下さり、一生の思い出になったと思います。
写真もありがとうございました。
また、機会があれば、よろしくお願い致します。
I was picked up from the Hyatt Regency near Waikiki Beach! The car was air-conditioned and comfortable for the dive at North Shore. I forgot how many times, but I was charged $30 on-site, but I was told it would be refunded since it was included with Veltra. It's better to be able to speak English.
ワイキキビーチの近くのハイアットリージェンシーから乗せてもらいました!ノースショアでのダイブということで車は冷房も効いて快適でした。何代か忘れましたけど現地で30ドル請求されましたが、Veltraに含まれているものだったからリファンドすると伝えられました。英語は喋れた方がいいです。
The price is a bit steep, but since I came all the way to Hawaii, I decided to participate without hesitation.
In the end, I think I spent my money wisely!
First of all, riding in a helicopter is something I rarely get to do, and the experience of the helicopter's sway was incredibly valuable.
I was able to fully enjoy views that I couldn't see from the ground, and I am very satisfied.
If I had one point to mention, it would be that if you're not good at English, it might be safer to request a Japanese-speaking driver, even if it incurs some additional fees.
We understood some of what was being said on the English tour, but the explanations about history and local information while actually seeing the sights made a big difference in how much we absorbed.
料金は少し値をはりますが、ハワイまできたのでそこは思い切って参加してみました。
結果いいお金の使い方をしたと思っています!
まずヘリに乗ることなんてなかなかない中でヘリの揺れなんかも大変貴重な体験でした。
景色も地上からは見れない景色を存分に楽しめることが出来て満足しています。
一点だけあるとすると、やはり英語が苦手であれば多少追加料金はかかりますが、日本人の運転手にお願いしたほうが無難だと思います。
我々は英語のツアーで多少は言ってることがわかるものの、やはり歴史やその土地の情報なども実際に見ながら説明してくれるので吸収力が違うと思います。
I used this for my honeymoon.
I experienced piloting with my wife. The duration was 1 hour for 2 people.
The price was higher compared to other activities, but we were able to create memories worth more than the cost.
I was satisfied with the service. They made an effort to accommodate our requests as much as possible and gave the impression of being sincere in their responses.
The course took us around Oahu for 2 hours, introducing famous tourist spots like the sea and mountains along the way.
I definitely recommend this tour.
ハネムーンで利用しました。
妻と一緒に体験操縦をしました。時間は1時間×2人です。
料金は他のアクティビティと比べ割高でしたが、料金以上の思い出を作ることが出来ました。
サービスは満足した内容です。こちらの要望を可能な限り叶えてくれますし、誠実な対応を心掛けてる印象でした。
コースはオワフ島を2時間かけて一周しました。海、山などの有名な観光スポットを紹介しながら回ってくれました。
是非オススメしたいツアーです。

We appreciate your recommendation!
We were truly happy to assist in creating wonderful honeymoon memories.
We would be delighted if you could stop by again when you visit Hawaii.
Wishing you happiness! ♪
RM 様
この度は、ご参加頂き有難う御座いました。
おススメ頂き、有難うございます!
私共もおめでたいハネムーンの思い出作りのお手伝いをさせて頂き、嬉しい限りでした。
またハワイへお越しの際には、お立ち寄り頂けたら幸いです。
お幸せに~♪
I had a comfortable flight while being explained about the attractions on the East Coast, including Diamond Head. The shuttle staff and flight instructors were all very kind, and they took many photos, creating the best memories of my time in Hawaii. Since this is a popular tour, I recommend making a reservation early if you have a preferred date and time.
ダイヤモンドヘッドをはじめとする東海岸の名所を説明してもらいながら快適なフライトができました。
送迎スタッフ・フライトインストラクター皆さま親切で、写真もたくさん撮って頂き、ハワイでの最高の思い出となりました。
人気のツアーなので希望の日時がある場合は早めの予約をおすすめします。
Dear Bear,
Thank you for participating this time. We are all delighted to hear you say it was "the best memory." We look forward to your next visit.
bear 様
この度はご参加頂き、有難うございました。
「最高の思い出」と言って頂き、スタッフ一同喜んでおります。
またのお越しをお待ちしております。
The staff were friendly, and even though I don't speak English, I was able to participate happily. They were also considerate of my worries about motion sickness and turbulence during the flight, allowing me to enjoy the flight with peace of mind. And above all, the view of Kauai Island from the sky was amazing!
スタッフの方々がフレンドリーで英語ができない私でも楽しく参加できました。
また、酔いや揺れを心配していた私をフライト中も気遣ってくださり、安心してフライトを楽しむことができました。
そして何より空からのカウアイ島の景色は最高でした!
The pickup time was accurate, and they kindly waited for a Chinese person who was a bit late. The pre-flight training was easy to understand, which made me feel reassured. Most of the attendees were flying in shorts and T-shirts. One Chinese woman came in a mini skirt and dove just like that, while a Black woman from LA was about to jump in a tank top but was made to wear a rash guard. The dive from 4,000 meters was so exhilarating that I ended up going to GoJump two days in a row! \(mmm)/
ピックアップの時間も正確で、少し遅れた中国人を待ってくれたり、かなり親切。飛行前のトレーニングも分かり易く、安心出来ました。殆どの来場客は短パンTシャツで飛んでました。中国人の女性の一人は、ミニスカートで来て、そのままダイブ、LAから来ていた黒人女性は、タンクトップで飛ぼうとしてましたが、さすがにラッシュガードを着せられていました。4000メートルからのダイブは気持ち良すぎて、2日連続でGoJumpしてしまいました !\(mmm)/
Our helicopter tour was the highlight of the trip so far. What a way to see the whole island of Kauai. Our pilot Robert was great. We saw everything. I was amazed at how safe I felt. Would definitely recommend not skipping this!
This time, I went for a Cessna experience. First of all, Shige, who came to pick me up, was very easy to talk to. From the start, I could feel that they have great staff here.
When I arrived, I entered a beautiful store and was greeted by a team of lovely staff members, who guided me to a sofa. After sitting down, a Japanese man with a darker complexion, who was not as beautiful as the staff, came to explain things. He provided a clear explanation of the Cessna in Japanese, and you could sense his desire to make jokes, as he was from the Kansai region.
After the explanation, once I gathered my thoughts, I boarded and headed to the runway. The instructor sat next to me and taught me patiently. After a certain point, he let me take over, and that’s when the Cessna piloting experience started. I was able to fly for about 30 minutes. I recommend doing some stretches before boarding, as I got tense and my body stiffened.
They also took photos from the side during the flight and sent them to me via AirDrop afterward. Since I was visiting for my honeymoon, they surprised me with a special gesture on the sofa after the experience, which I really appreciated.
The man who explained things to me at first was actually the owner! However, his business card listed him as a cleaner and mechanic, and it seems the real owner is his kind wife. She was also very easy to talk to, so I definitely recommend this Cessna experience.
今回はセスナの体験に行きました〜
まず、お迎えに来てくださったしげさんがとても話しやすい。ここからすでにいいスタッフさんが揃っているんだなと感じれます♪
着いたら、綺麗な店内に入り、美人揃いのスタッフにお出迎えをされ、ソファーに案内されます。
座ったら、美人とは反対の色黒の日本人男性が説明に来てくれるのですが、日本語でセスナの説明などをしてくれてわかりやすいですが、関西出身の方でボケたい願望が滲み出ている感じです笑
説明後、気持ちの整理が着いたら搭乗し滑走路へ。
隣に先生がついて、丁寧に教えてくれます。
ある程度いけばらこちらに交代してくれるので、そこからセスナ操縦の体験スタートです。約30分程度させてもらえます。緊張して体が固くなるのでストレッチしてから搭乗をオススメします笑
撮影なども横からしてくれますし、終わったあとはAir dropで写真をくれます。
体験後のソファーでも新婚旅行での訪問でしたので、サプライズ演出をしてくださりありがたかったです。
最初に説明してくれた黒い男性は実はオーナーさんでした笑
ただ名刺には掃除係兼整備士など、裏のオーナーは優しい奥様みたいです笑
奥様もとても話しやすい方なので、セスナの体験はぜひこちらをおすすめしたいと思います。
Dear Suke-yu,
Thank you very much for participating this time. Also, thank you for your recommendation! I was very happy that you understood my desire to be playful in Kansai and engaged with me in such a lively manner.
Next time you participate, I will do my best to increase the titles on my business card (laughs).
I look forward to seeing you again!
スケゆー様
この度はご参加頂き、有難うございました。
また、おススメ頂き有難うございます!
関西のボケたい願望をお察し頂き、ノリよくお付き合い頂きとても喜んでおりました♪
次回ご参加の折には、名刺の肩書が増える様、頑張るそうです(笑)
またお待ちしております!
My husband and I had a wonderful time on this excursion! The pilot was very friendly and told us all about what we were looking at. The ride was smooth and the views were unreal!
We did our tour with doors on. Great fun! Vince was our helicopter pilot and was great. Lots of great history, beautiful scenery, and good luck with prefect weather.
The helicopter flight was great - one of the best so far.
The staff was professional, and the facilities were new and clean. They gave us the phone harness and the wind breaker (which was essential).
The pilot - Steve - was experienced and guided through the entire flight giving us confidence.
The fly around the volcano was the most amazing of all.
The doors-off does present windy conditions on top of already windy (in addition to the lift from blades). So if you are on the edge seats, be ready to enjoy the ride with strong winds hitting your body and the face.
I was able to visit many scenic spots and tourist attractions, and it was a very satisfying flight, so I would like to try again.
景色や観光スポットをたくさんめぐることができました、大変満足の行くフライトでしたのでまた挑戦したいと思いました。
Amazing views and a very friendly staff!! Zip lining over the falls was beautiful. Thank you to the staff
Gorgeous waterfalls from above, Kauai is the island to get the views of all the greenery and moisture!
Wish we got to see lava but the experience alone made us know we will soon be back!
My daughter and I enjoyed our first helicopter ride with Paradise Helicopters. We got to see so many beautiful parts of Oahu. Our favorite part was landing on the mountain top to view Kualoa Ranch Valley. Highly recommends this trip for everyone!
I think the biggest attraction is using the runway at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport. The pilot was a local and spoke only English, but the staff provided advice on basic conversations before boarding.
ダイエルKイノウエ空港の滑走路を使用するのが最大の魅力だと思います。
パイロットは現地の方で英語オンリーでしたが、最低限の会話は乗る前に送迎スタッフの方がアドバイスしてくれました。
We participated in this tour as a family (four adults). I'm glad we chose the helicopter without doors. It was thrilling, and without the doors, we had a great view of the scenery!! I was impressed by the incredibly beautiful views, such as Hanauma Bay. The pilot (English only) was also very kind and wonderful! He piloted while explaining important locations. Don't forget to tip the pilot!! If you receive good service, it's nice to give a gratuity.
I strongly recommend taking motion sickness medication, as I think people who are not used to helicopters will definitely get sick! We took motion sickness medication in advance and chose the shorter 30-minute course, but we still felt a little nauseous. Just when I thought I was getting sick, we landed, so it was okay, but if it had been the longer 60-minute course, I might have felt worse.
We also purchased the video recording option, but to be honest, I think it wasn't necessary. There was no audio, and the visuals weren't very clear, so it felt like it wasn't worth the price. Other than that, I was very satisfied! I highly recommend this tour!
私たちは家族(大人4人)でこのツアーに参加しました。ドアなしのヘリコプターを選択して良かったです。スリルがあったし、ドアがないので景色が良く見えました!!ハナウマ湾などすごく美しい景色に感動しました。そして、パイロット(英語のみ)の方もすごく優しくて素晴らしかったです!重要な場所の説明をしながら操縦してくださいました。パイロットさんにチップをあげるのを忘れないでくださいね!!良い対応してもらったらお心付けを渡しましょう。
ヘリコプターに慣れていない人は絶対酔うと思うので、酔い止めを飲むことを強くお勧めします!私たちは酔い止めを事前に飲み、短めの30分コースを選択しましたが、それでも少しだけ酔いました。酔って来たなーと思ったところで、着陸したので大丈夫でしたが、長い60分コースとかだったら気持ち悪くなっていたかもしれません。
私たちはオプションでビデオ録画も買いましたが、はっきりいってこれはいらなかったと思います。音声はないし、映像もあまり鮮明ではなかったので、これでこの値段か・・・って感じでした。それ以外は大満足!すごくお勧めのツアーです!
This is a must do if you’re in Maui. This was by far our favorite activity. Drew made the trip so much fun, as we flew through the different parts of the island he explained what we were looking at and even gave us recommendations on where to travel to while we are on the island. The views were incredible.
