絶景スカイダイビング 一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動!ビデオ&写真撮影付きプランあり by ゴージャンプハワイ<送迎付き>

I flew for the first time. はじめて飛びました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I didn't have a friend to fly with, so I participated alone this time! I'm not good with roller coasters, but to be honest, this was way less scary than a roller coaster. It was exhilarating! However, I did feel quite nauseous after the parachute opened. I ordered the DVD, and when I had a screening with my friends at the hotel, it was a lot of fun!

一緒に飛んでくれる友人がいなったので、今回は一人で参加しました!
ジェットコースターが苦手なのですが、はっきり言ってジェットコースターよりも全然怖くりませんでした。爽快の一言!!
ただ、パラシュートが開いた後がかなり酔います。
DVDを申し込みました。これはホテルで友人達と上映会をしたら、かなり盛り上がりましたよ!

Hawaii Skydiving (with Japanese guidance) by Pacific Skydiving ハワイ スカイダイビング(日本語案内付き)by パシフィックスカイダイ

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

It was my first experience and I was very nervous, but as the instructor said, I was able to fly like a bird without feeling weightless. Falling from 4,200 meters at a speed of 200 km/h was thrilling. If you pay an additional fee (USD 188), a personal photographer will capture the entire experience from takeoff to landing on DVD and in about 100 photos. If you request something like "Please take a photo that captures the curvature of the Earth," they will likely accommodate that. Before flying, there is a few minutes of an image video and a brief lesson, but you will sign a contract stating that they are not responsible for any accidents, so the decision to participate is at your own risk. If you have any health concerns, it is recommended to see a doctor beforehand.

初めての体験でとても緊張したが、インストラクターの言ったとおり無重力を感じることなく鳥のように飛べた。4200mを時速200Kmの速さで落下するのでスリル満点。追加料金(USD188)を支払えば自分専属のカメラマンが離陸から着地までの一部始終をDVDと写真(約100枚)に撮ってくれる。おそらく「地球の丸さを感じる写真を撮ってください」などと希望すればそうしてくれるだろう。なお飛ぶ前には数分間のイメージビデオと簡単なレッスンがあるが、いかなる事故の責任も問わない旨の契約を結ぶので、やるやらないは自己責任。体調に不安がある人は、事前に医者に診てもらうことをお勧めする。

Hana by Air & Land - Helicopter Flight & Semi-Private Sightseeing Tour Combo

Fly and Ride goodness

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

This tour was so cool I honestly can't decide which part of the two I liked better, the helicopter flight or the drive along the road to hana. Both were such once in a lifetime experiences, i really don't know how I am gonna top a tour like this on my next vacation anywhere. really enjoyed both of them, and would do them BOTH again in a heartbeat. Maui is so pretty, and being able to see it from the air and on ground really gave a great diverse perspective of just how great this island really is. thanks alot

This is the best!! 最高~~~~~~~!!

Reviewed by: ダイアン

June 25, 2011: My first and probably last skydiving! I want to praise myself for doing well... Anyway, 1. Fear of heights doesn't really matter 2. There’s no G-force like on a roller coaster, and you don’t feel that floating sensation 3. The instructor is reliable, and you can experience it without any anxiety 4. The rapid descent changes the air pressure quickly, so your ears might hurt a bit 5. I think those who participated should definitely order the DVD 6. For those who haven't experienced it yet, those who are hesitating, and those who are unsure, I highly recommend participating (please consider the risks carefully). In December, I'm going to Hawaii with my husband, and he has also expressed his intention to participate, lol. It was so much fun!! Thank you to all the instructors!!

2011.6.25 初にして恐らく最後のスカイダイビング!よくやったと自分を褒めてあげたい。。。とにかく 1高所恐怖症はあまり関係ない 2ジェットコースターの様なGはかからないし、フワッとした感覚もない 3イントラが頼もしくなんの不安も感じることなく体験出来る 4急降下で気圧が一気に変わるので多少耳が痛い 5参加された方はぜひDVDを申し込まれた方がいいと思います 6まだ未経験の方、ためらってる方、迷ってる方、ぜひ参加される事をお勧め致します(リスクは熟慮して下さいね) 12月に今度は主人とハワイに行きますが主人も参加を表明いたしておりますww 楽しかったぁ~!! イントラの皆さ~んありがとうございましたぁ~!!

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧 水~土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能<フライト100分/英語パイロット/ワイコロアヘリポート>

You absolutely have to try it! 絶対のってみて!

Reviewed by: miwa.M

This is something I absolutely think everyone should experience!

In addition to seeing the moving red lava, they also took us to a canyon that can only be accessed by helicopter, showcasing a world you can't see in everyday life.

You can witness the wonders of nature.

The pilot, Toshi, was a fun person and provided a lot of explanations, which was great.

I heard that Toshi also runs a company called Aloha Breeze.

Since you can see the natural conditions at that time, I don't think you'll ever get tired of the experience, no matter how many times you do it.

I definitely plan to ride in a helicopter again next time!

これは、絶対経験するべきと思いました!

赤い溶岩が動いている様子やワイピオ渓谷の他にもヘリでしか行けない渓谷にも連れて行ってくれて、日常では見られない世界です。

自然の素晴らしさを見られます。

パイロットのトシさんは、楽しい方で、いろいろ説明もしてもらえてので良かったです。

トシさんはアロハブリーズという会社もされているそうです。

その時の自然の状態を見られるので、何度経験しても飽きないと思います。

次もぜひ、ヘリに乗ろうと思います!

I want to fly again! また飛びたい!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

We participated as a couple. It was my husband's wish to join, and we had a really great time! I definitely recommend the course that has the longest airtime and goes the highest!

It gets cold up there. Also, the belts are quite tight, so I recommend wearing clothing that has some length around the shoulders and thighs. I wore a short-sleeve T-shirt and a long-sleeve shirt, but I ended up with light marks on my arms. If you have long hair, make sure to bring a hair tie! My hair is about shoulder length, and since I forgot a hair tie, it got really tangled after the flight.

You can land on both feet on the grass. I noticed that a few men landed on their bottoms (including my husband), so it might depend on the weight distribution with the instructor.

The mention of "long wait times" seems to refer to the editing time for those who requested DVDs. Still, during our time, there were 10 participants and 5 DVDs, and we were able to return to Waikiki around 12:30.

夫婦で参加しました。
そもそも夫の希望で参加しましたが、す~ご~く楽しかった!
絶対、滞空時間の長くなる、一番高く上がるコースをおすすめします!

上空は寒いです。またベルト類をぎっちり締めつけるので、肩口や腿の部分はある程度長さのある衣類をオススメします。
私は半袖T&長袖シャツでしたが、腕の付け根に軽く跡がつきました。
髪の長い方はヘアゴムを!私は肩ぐらいの長さですがヘアゴムを忘れたため、飛び終わった後は髪が絡まりまくって大変でした。。

芝生地に両足で立って着地させてもらえます。
見ていると男性はお尻からのかたが数人いたので(うちの夫も)、インストラクターさんへの加重にもよるのかもしれません。

「待ち時間が長い」とあるのは、DVDを申し込んだ方々の編集時間待ちのようです。
それでも私たちのときは参加者10人、DVD5人で、12時半ごろにはワイキキに戻れました。

Overlooking the Big Island of Hawaii from a bird's-eye view. ハワイ島を鳥目線で見下ろす

Reviewed by: fufufu

After driving around the Big Island, I participated in this tour.

It was exciting to see the scenery and the overall landscape of the island that I couldn't see from the car.

In Hawaii, the clouds feel very low. The moment I entered the clouds, water droplets formed on the window, and the wind from the propeller made them slide down the window at an incredible speed, which was quite a surprise.

I could see the boundary between the grassy areas and the black regions where lava had solidified, observe plants growing only along the river in places without paths, suddenly encounter a volcano with glowing red lava inside, and get close to a magnificent waterfall surrounded by lush greenery. It was truly a tour that allowed me to experience the grandeur of Hawaii's nature.

I was hoping for a Japanese pilot, but unfortunately, it was conducted in English.

If I understood a bit more English, it would have been even more interesting... I realized my lack of English skills.

Of course, the pilot was very refreshing and a wonderful person.

After seeing the overall landscape from here, driving around the island might spark more interest in various things.

車でハワイ島を回った後に参加。

車では見えなかった景色や島の全貌が見え興奮ものでした。

ハワイは雲がとても低く感じられます。
雲に入った瞬間に窓に水滴がつきプロペラの爆風ですごい勢いで窓を伝って滑り落ちていく様までが珍しく、驚きの連続でした。


草原地帯と、溶岩の固まったような黒いエリアの境目が見えたり、道なき場所にある川沿いにだけ植物が育っているのをみたり、急に火山が出現しその中で溶岩が赤く光っているのをみたり、そうかと思えば、緑あふれるにある壮大な滝に接近したり、本当にハワイの自然の壮大さを体感でいるツアーでした。

日本人パイロットもいるということでそれにかけていましたが、残念ながら英語対応。

もうちょっと英語がわかればもっとおもしろかったのに…。自分の英語力のなさを痛感しました。

もちろんパイロットさんは、とっても爽やかで素敵な方でしたいよ。

こちらで全貌をみてから島を車でまわると、いろいろなことに興味がもてていいかもしれません。

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

Helicopter Volcano Tour

Reviewed by: Tina Thatcher

This was an excellent trip!

The pre-flight activities were well organized, and the staff was very courteous.

The actual flight was incredible, and the pilot was very knowledgeable. It was wonderful to be able to ask questions while in flight.

The weather was the only drawback. We couldn't see the crater due to rain/fog/wind. It was still an incredible trip, but it would have been even better to see the crater.

I would recommend this trip to anyone, although considering the cost, children probably wouldn't enjoy as much as adults. Seating is arranged by weight to balance the ride, so young children could be separated from Mom - might be an issue for some.

Overall, a wonderful tour conducted by a wonderful company.

I wasn't scared even though I have a fear of heights.

It was fun coming down with a parachute while looking at the beautiful sea.

However, there is a lot of waiting time afterward, so if you're short on time, it might be better to go by rental car. I think I waited for about an hour and a half.

Enjoying Big Island!!! Big Ilandを堪能!!!

Reviewed by: 山マキFamily

The staff's service is outstanding. They are friendly and approachable. The pilot was cautious and serious, and the explanations were easy to understand (he's from Hawaii). It was the most comfortable helicopter ride I've ever experienced.

I started to get a bit bored with the endless expanse of volcanic ash and land, but then came the breathtaking beauty of the Kohala Coast and Waipi'o Valley!!!! I think this beauty can only be appreciated from a helicopter. When I spotted a mother and baby whale swimming from above and informed the pilot, he kindly showed us from an angle where everyone could see, which was truly moving.

For those who want to condense the essence of the vast Hawaii Island into a short time, this adventure comes highly recommended.

スタッフさんの対応は抜群です。気軽に話しかけてくれてフレンドリーです。パイロットの方は慎重な運転のかたで、まじめ、解説もわかりやすかった(ハワイのかたです)です。今まで乗ったヘリコプターのなかでいちばん安心の乗り心地でした。
延々と続く広大な火山灰と土地に半ば飽きが来てしまいましたが そのうちコハラコースト、ワイピオバレーの鳥肌ものの美しさ!!!!これはヘリの上からでないと味わえない美しさだと思いました。途中クジラの親子の遊泳を上から発見した私がパイロットに知らせると丁寧に 全員が観れる角度で見せてくれて感激しました。
広い広いハワイ島の醍醐味を短い時間で凝縮して楽しみたいというかたは、ぜひお勧めのアドベンチャーです。

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We loved our helicopter tour! Our first time in a helicopter and we both had a few hesitations, but the ground crew was very helpful and supportive and Koji, our pilot, was wonderful. He made an effort to circle around each area so that everyone would have a great view of the area. The tour was awesome, we felt like we saw all the highlights on the island and really got a feeling of how the lava flows and how the island has changed over the years. We would definitely recommend this tour. The highlight of our trip to the Big Island.

Awesome experience...

Reviewed by: elchuy

Flew with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters on our first ever trip to Maui. Overall experience was great, from their office personnel and ground crew to the pilot. What made it particularly well worth it was our pilot – Glenda, she was awesome! The moment we got on board she was so calm and in control. She provided a lot of information and answered our questions in a soothing, calm voice as she maneuvered about the sky and terrain so effortlessly. We flew over dense jungle that she said was inaccessible by foot and viewed waterfalls falling into pristine pools. Would be curious to try it again after a rain shower, as we were told each and every gully turns into a waterfall!

This was an extremely unique experience. Some of the views can only be experienced from a helicopter. Waterfalls, lava flows, flights deep into the valley are just some of the sights on this tour. The pilot/guide is extremely knowledgeable and makes the trip fun as well. Well worth the cost and would highly recommend for any individual or group. I can only imagine that each trip would be different due to environmental conditions such as lava flows and rainfall so it is perfect for first timers and repeat guests.

Kilauea Volcano Doors-Off Helicopter Tour from Hilo [Not Operating]

Be Aware!!

Reviewed by: crfolgate

This would be a great trip IF you don't get stuck in the backwards seats. These seats are a total rip off since you don't get to see where you are headed and when there is something cool to see well too bad it's already past. Pilot does a good job of trying to circle around so everyone see's but there's no way for the backward seat folks to see anything really well. If you decide to go I STRONGLY recommend that you get guarantee's that you get a front seat or front looking seats only. My wife and Mom had great seats and enjoyed the views I'm happy about that but I wish I had saved the money and sent them up without me since it was two hours of flying backwards and barely seeing anything. You have been warned. :O
**** Also you should also be aware that the photo's of all the cool lava flows are really old. We saw very little lava and after the flight we found out they use old photo's for advertising. Pretty views are to be had but not much lava.

It was a valuable experience that everyone should try at least once in their lifetime. It was really exciting. Whether I want to do it again is another story, but it was a wonderful experience.

The cost was a bit high due to various tips and fees, so there was a slight gap in expectations, but I guess it can't be helped.

Kilauea Volcano Doors-Off Helicopter Tour from Hilo [Not Operating]

Great experience with one caution

Reviewed by: Dawn

Had a fantastic time! Our guide, Jesse, grew up on the island and was a wealth of information about not just what we saw on the tour, but also about other activities on the island. Word of caution: if you book through a third party like we did, after you receive confirmation, call Paradise to verify your group size. We showed up as scheduled to discover that someone (don't know if it was Paradise or Hawaii Activities) incorrectly entered the size of our group as two instead of three. We couldn't take the tour on our scheduled day because the group was overbooked. Luckily we were able to go the next day and Paradise had availability. They took great care of us once the error was discovered, but if you're on a tight schedule, don't risk missing out. Call ahead! Inconvenience aside, this is something you should do and was well worth the cost!!
