All Reviews for Helicopter & Airplane Tours

pilot was friendly. scenery was great. be aware some passengers might get nauseous!

It was rainy on the day, and there was quite a bit of waiting time, but it cleared up and we were able to jump. It was the best time. If I go to Hawaii again, I will definitely go skydiving. It was amazing. Thank you very much.

当日は雨模様で待ち時間がかなりありましたが、それでも晴れてきて飛ぶことができました。最高の時間でした。またハワイに行けば必ずスカイダイビングはやります。
最高でした。ありがとうございました。

It was my first time skydiving, and I thought I would be nervous, but it was such an amazing experience that I forgot all about that! On the day of the jump, I received a message that it couldn't be done due to strong winds, but I'm glad I didn't cancel and decided to go on another day. The instructor and the driver were both fun people, which made it even better!

初めてのスカイダイビングで緊張するかと思ってたけどそんな事忘れるくらいの素晴らしい体験でした！
当日は強風で出来ない連絡が来ましたが、キャンセルしないで別日に決行して良かったです。
インストラクターの方も送迎ドライバーさんも楽しい方で良かったです！

The trip was initially cancelled due to poor weather, but the Blue Hawaiian staff were all extraordinarily friendly and helpful, and rebooked us for later that day. The flight was gorgeous, and the pilot (Patrick) was both professional and very entertaining. I'd happily recommend it to anyone.

Very clean and comfortable helicopter. Pilot had a great soundtrack and was very good at making sure we all got a good view of everything. Staff was efficient and knowledgeable.

I was able to see an unbelievably beautiful view, and it was truly a great experience. I'm glad I did it!
- The swaying while descending with the parachute was intense, and I got extremely motion sick, so I definitely recommend taking motion sickness medication if you're prone to it. I wish I had taken some...
- For the early morning group, I recommend wearing long sleeves as it can be a bit chilly.
- The staff members on the jump will take photos during the skydiving, but the distance and number of photos may vary by person!

信じられないくらいの絶景を見ることができ本当に良い経験になりました。やってよかったです！
・パラシュートで降りて来るときの横揺れが激しくて、人生最大級に酔って気持ち悪くなってしまったので、乗り物酔いしやすい方は絶対に酔い止めを飲まれることをオススメします。飲めばよかった。。
・朝早い組は肌寒いので長袖着用をオススメします。
・スカイダイビング中の写真は同乗スタッフの方が撮ってくれますが、距離や枚数は個人差あり！

We enjoyed the flight a lot. The flight without doors is realy special. The pilot flight direct over the crater with magna and we can made beautiful pictures and feel the cold wind and the hot magna!

I am 55 years old, and my husband is 65 years old. It's the best! It changes your perspective on life. You should definitely go for it without hesitation! My instructor kept me relaxed the whole time. I went and came back without waiting at all.

私55歳、旦那さん65歳最高‼️
人生観変わります。
迷わずやるべき！
私のインストラクターは始終リラックスさせてくれました〜
少しも待たずに行って帰ってきました。

My skydiving instructor Mark made my experience an unforgettable one! Not once during the whole process did I feel nervous about the fact that I was going to jump out of a plane for the first time. He was so sweet and his sense of humor made me relax. I can't wait to go back!

When flying, it was like an assembly line. There was virtually no hesitation time like you often see on TV. I got dizzy from the turns after the parachute opened, but I wasn't scared at all during the descent.

飛ぶ時は流れ作業でした。
テレビでよく見るような、ためらいの時間は無いも同然です。
パラシュート開いてからの旋回に酔ってダウンしてしまいましたが、降下中はぜんぜん怖くなかったです。

I was disappointed by the instructor's lack of enthusiasm. Compared to other instructors, the pre-jump practice was shorter, they seemed to find it bothersome, and there was no sign of proactive communication. I wanted to switch to someone else.

The skydiving experience itself was amazing. They really need to improve the training for instructors since we are entrusting them with our lives.

インストラクターのやる気のなさにがっかりしました。
ほかのインストラクターと比べると事前の予行練習も短いし、めんどくさそうだし、コミュニケーションを積極的にとる気配も無し、他の人にチェンジしたかったです。

スカイダイビング自体は最高でしたよ。
インストラクターの教育は強化した方がいいですね、こっちは命を任せているんですから。

After watching Miho Kanno on television, I really wanted to join a doorless helicopter tour. Before the tour, we received a thorough briefing, which made me feel secure about getting on the helicopter. Since it was my first time in a helicopter, I expected some turbulence, but it felt smooth as if gliding over the water, so I had no anxiety. I was able to see the lava flowing into the ocean and the steam rising, as well as feel the hot winds. Additionally, we had a bird's-eye view of waterfalls like Rainbow Falls, and my family of three is thrilled to have had the best experience of our lives. After the tour, my wife thanked me for giving her the front seat. According to her, the front seat was the best. Next time, I want to let my daughter sit there. I definitely want to recommend this tour to my friends. Thank you very much.

菅野美穂さんのテレビを見て、どうしても扉なしのヘリツアーに参加したくなりました。ツアー前に丁寧にブリーフィングしていただき、安心してヘリに乗ることができました。初めてのヘリでしたので、揺れることを予想していましたが、水面を滑るような感じで不安はありませんでした。期待していた海に溶岩が流れ込み水蒸気が立ち上るところや溶岩の流れ、その熱風を肌で感じることができました。さらに、レインボーフォールなどの滝を俯瞰することができ、人生最高の体験をできたと家族3人喜んでいます。ツアー後、妻から前の席を譲ってくれてありがとうと感謝されました。妻曰く、前の席は最高だったよとのことです。今度は娘に座らせてあげたいです。友人にも是非紹介したいツアーです。ありがとうございました。

I can't speak English, but the funky guys really gathered around and played with me. It was so much fun even before jumping, and although there was a briefing, we just laughed through it! About six groups boarded the Cessna together, chatting and having a great time in the sky.

Arriving at over 4000 meters in short sleeves and shorts was quite chilly! But without a care, we dove! The free fall lasts about a minute, but it feels like only 20 seconds. It goes by in a flash. I had a cameraman with me to capture the video. I feel like I wanted to perform more. I think if you imagine it beforehand, you won't regret it. Once you jump, there's absolutely no fear. It's just fun and beautiful scenery. You really feel alive in the sky. The landing is quite thrilling with its speed!

　英語ができないですが、ファンキーなお兄さん達が、寄ってたかって遊んでくれます。飛ぶ前からめちゃくちゃ楽しく、講習がありますが、それも笑ってるだけで終了！6組ほど一緒に、セスナに乗り込み、ワイワイしながら大空に。
　半袖、短パンで、上空4000ｍ以上に到着。出口を開けると、まー寒い！しかし、おかまいなしに、ダイブ！1分落下ですが、体感では、20秒ほどです。あっという間です。カメラマンをつけて動画を撮りました。もっとなんかパフォーマンスしたかった感が残ります。イメージしておくと後悔しないと思います。飛び降りれば、恐怖は、全くなし。只々、楽しく、美しい景色です。空に生きている気持ちになれます。着地は、中々、スリリングなスピードですよ！

Did the 14,000-15,000 feet with my wife and five friends. Worth every penny and would recommend to anyone

Really great ride. Beautiful scenery. Saw some lava and waterfalls but we were not very close to either. Worth the trip but don't expect to get close

My family and I have been to Hawaii several times, but have never been on a helicopter tour. I am so happy we chose to do this for the first time with Paradise Helicopters because it was a great time from start to finish. Initially, I was scared of flying in such a small aircraft, but our pilot Jay was so great and informative that my fears quickly disappeared and I was able to enjoy myself and see the island in a way that would be impossible from land. Additionally, there were complementary ginger chews and motion sickness bags in the helicopter which also helped make me feel at ease. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see Hawaii in a fun and unique way!

Yesterday, my family and I had a blast on the Circle Island helicopter tour! All staff were extremely friendly and knowledgable, making us feel safe and at-ease despite it being all of our first times in a helicopter. Jay, our captain, took us around the whole island and had a wealth of information about each area we flew over. He also readily answered any questions we had throughout the tour. The whole experience was thorough, executed seamlessly, and will surely be a highlight of our vacation.
It was an excellent way to experience Oahu, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the island.

Saw volcano with bubbling lava and lava glowing into the sea. Friendly and informative pilot. Highly recommended.

We loved our combo (Helicopter/Van) tour of Hana. It is the best way to do it. It is a rather long but beautiful drive to/from Hana so taking a helicopter one way and seeing the sights including Haleakala is best of both worlds. Our guide Scott Ferguson (Scotty) was terrific. He was fun, informative and engaging. The Hana area is so beautiful. Hint: if you plan to swim I suggest you bring reef shoes. This was one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommended!

I signed up at Narita Airport with excitement and curiosity! However, this became the best memory of my trip! The instructor was from America and everyone was friendly and engaging, helping to ease my nerves, so I had a great time even before flying! The thrill and excitement were incredible, and the view while flying was amazing! The ocean seen from above was incredibly beautiful and the scenery was wonderful! I highly recommend it!

ノリと好奇心で出発の成田空港で申し込みました！
しかし、この旅行での一番の思い出となりました！インストラクターはアメリカの方で皆ノリ良く楽しく話しかけてくれて緊張をほぐしてくださり、飛ぶ前からすごく楽しめました！
なんといってもスリルとワクワク、飛んでる時の景色は最高！上からみる海は凄く綺麗で素晴らしい景色でした！オススメです！

Amazing experience . Staff was very helpful and really nice.I would definitely do it again

One of the things I wanted to experience before I die was skydiving, and I jumped with my sister. There was no feeling of "falling" like in free fall at all; the wind was so intense that I didn't know how to breathe, which made me panic a bit (I'm glad I asked about it beforehand). The view was unforgettable! If I'm invited to jump again... I will! It was a great experience!

死ぬまでに体験したいこと！のひとつだった「スカイダイビング」姉と2人で飛びました。フリーホールのような「落ちる時のゾワっと感」は全くなく、あまりにすごい風で息の仕方が分からず、焦りましたが（事前に聞いといてよかった）あの景色は忘れられません！
もう一度飛ぼうと誘われたら…飛びます！いい経験でした〜

Excellent! Our pilot, Scotty was very Iinformative and friendly. He interacted with each passenger on the flight. He was very knowledgeable about the area and the folklore.

Great way to see Hana. Lots of fun. Very beautiful. Our guide Scotty was fantastic. Highly recommend.

My first time overseas.
My first time skydiving.

It was truly amazing! I'm so glad to be alive ( ´ ▽ ` )

生まれて初めての海外。

ほんっとに最高でした！
生きててよかった( ´ ▽ ` )

Thank you very much for all your help this time. Thanks to you, the weather was great, and I was able to see the vast Big Island of Hawaii and the long-desired Kilauea Volcano from the sky. If I had to say, it would have been perfect to see a bit more volcanic activity, but I suppose we can't go against nature (laughs). However, I was satisfied as I could clearly see the lava flowing.

I was a bit concerned about the budget, but considering it as a once-in-a-lifetime memory, I don't think it was expensive at all.

このたびはいろいろお世話になりありがとうございました。おかげさまで天気もよく、広大なハワイ島と念願のキラウエア火山を空から観ることができました。敢えて言うならばもう少し活発な火山活動が観られたら最高でしたが、さすがに自然には逆らえませんね(苦笑)。でも溶岩が流れ出ている様子などはハッキリ見えたので満足しています。
予算的にはどうかなと思いましたが、一生の思い出と考えれば決して高くはないと思いますよ。

I was able to see the rarely seen bright red magma and a rainbow over the valley, making it a once-in-a-lifetime experience. It was an absolutely amazing flight.

なかなか見る事の出来ない真っ赤なマグマや谷にかかる虹などを見ることができ、一生に一度の体験ができました。とっても最高なフライトでした。

I never thought I would be able to fly, but I made a reservation. In the car on the way, we watched a Japanese safety video. After arriving, there was an explanation in English, followed by a brief posture training before boarding the Cessna. Once on board, I braced myself and waited to jump. The tandem staff tried to ease my nerves with some words, but I was probably looking quite tense. During the free fall, the wind pressure was incredible, making it hard to breathe, and when I watched the video later, it was quite a sight. After the parachute opened, I had the chance to enjoy the view, and since the weather was nice, it felt amazing. I had some anxiety, but it was definitely worth trying.

まさか自分が飛べるとは思いませんでしたが、予約してしまいました。移動の車の中で日本語の注意ビデオを見せられます。着いてからは英語で説明の後、簡単な姿勢の講習でセスナに乗り込みます。乗ってからは覚悟を決めて飛び出すのを待ちます。タンデムのスタッフが緊張を紛らわすように声をかけてくれましたが、だいぶ顔が強張ってたでしょう。フリーフォールの時は凄い風圧で息も苦しく後でビデオを見たらヒドイもんでした。パラシュートが開いてからは景色を見る余裕も出来て、天気が良かった事もあり最高の気分でした。不安もありましたがやってみる価値アリです。

I experienced skydiving for the first time. When I jumped out of the plane, I was momentarily intimidated by the view below, but the instructor made me jump without giving me a chance to hesitate, so it wasn't like the scenes you see on TV (laughs). As for skydiving... you should experience it for yourself! I especially recommend it for those who have never tried it before! It seems to be more affordable than experiencing it in Japan.

初めてスカイダイビングを体験しました。飛行機から飛び出す際、眼下の景色に一瞬怯んでしまいましたが、インストラクターが有無も言わせずジャンプするので、TVでありがちなシーンにはなりませんでした(笑)。そしてスカイダイビングは・・・ご自身で体験されて下さい！
経験のない方なら、なおさらお勧めしたいところです！日本国内で体験するよりもリーズナブルなようですし。

I was really anxious until I flew, but the instructor's American jokes made it not scary. Once I flew, it felt great. I want to try it again when I go to Hawaii. The price is also cheaper than in Japan.

飛ぶまでは凄く不安でしたがインストラクターのアメリカンジョークで怖くなかったです。
飛ぶと気持ちよく
またハワイに行った時に飛んでみたいです。
値段も日本よりの安いです。
