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

Worth the Money

Reviewed by: BuckysGirl

I wavered back and forth with doing a helicopter ride since it is so expensive. My boyfriend and I went on the Falls and Fire tour, which was interesting. I am glad we did it, since much of the volcano viewing area was closed due to the fumes, but I wish we could have gone at night to see the lava flows better. It was a bit inconvenient for us due to the weather (we had to reschedule), luckily we could be a bit flexible. I would recommend a helicopter ride in Hawaii to anyone, since it is a unique experience and the views are phenomenal.

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 absolutely recommend it! 絶対おすすめです！

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I hesitated to participate because I'm not very comfortable with heights, but in the end, I'm glad I did it.

At first, I was anxious after signing a contract stating, "I will not sue no matter what happens," but thanks to the friendly and reliable instructor, by the time we were diving, my expectations outweighed my fears.

When falling from 14,000 feet, the wind pressure is so intense that I couldn't even close my mouth, but once the parachute opened, I was simply amazed by the breathtaking views below. The instructor showed us the scenery from different angles, explaining it in simple English like a tour guide. It was the best sky adventure.

I was really torn about whether to order the photos because they were expensive, but I'm glad I did. They took many pictures, and being able to look at them later allowed me to enjoy the experience even more after the trip. It became my favorite memory from Hawaii.

For those who are hesitating, you absolutely should do it!!

高いところがあまり得意ではないため参加するか迷いましたが、結果は、やってよかったです。

はじめに、「何があっても訴えません」という内容の契約書にサインさせられ、不安がよぎりますが、気さくで頼りがいのあるインストラクターのお陰で、ダイビングする頃には、不安より、期待の方が大きくなっています。

14000フィートから落ちる時は、風圧がすごくて、口がつむれないほどですが、パラシュートを開いてからは、眼下に広がる素晴らしい景色に、ただただ感動します。
インストラクターが、簡単な英語で、観光案内のように、角度をかえて、景色を見せてくれます。最高の空の旅でした。

写真が高かったので、頼むか相当迷いましたが、これも頼んでよかったです。
何枚も撮ってもらえますし、後で客観的に見れるので、旅の後も楽しめます。
ハワイで一番の思い出になりました。

迷っている方、絶対やるべきですよ！！

I am afraid of heights and I was really afraid that I would have to close my eyes, like when I go to some of the i-max theaters. This was so great, it was peaceful and calm. I loved every minute of it and wished that it had lasted longer and my eyes never closed. I think that it is a great way to see the coast line, but also the mountains and the poi fields in Hanalei. I would do it again.

Helicopter Tour

Reviewed by: Larry Debo

Not only was this my first time on the beautiful island of Hawaii it was also the first time I had ever been on a helicopter. I spent 9 nights on the island and the helicopter tour was, by far, the most enjoyable hour during my entire stay. The pilot was very knowledgeable of the areas we toured and informative. His sidekick, (Ziggy), was a hit with everyone in our group. I would highly, highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the island. You couldn't find a better attractiion on the entire island than this tour. I am returning to the island in August and I'm hopeful we can get as good a rate then, like we did last October. Thanks again and see you in August.

I'm glad I did it! やってよかった！

Reviewed by: S.Y

I was opposed by my family and looked at strangely by my colleagues, wondering, "Am I weird?" but I followed my heart that said, "I want to fly!" and went for it. In the end, I am filled with the feeling that it was great to fly. For me, the joy and satisfaction come even stronger after returning home than right after the jump. During free fall, the strong wind and noise make it hard to enjoy the scenery, but once the parachute opens, I was able to leisurely enjoy the beautiful sea and mountains of Hawaii. Watching others descend while waiting below is also impressive. It was quite cold between the plane and free fall, especially in winter! (Someone who participated with me said, "You seem calm. I didn't feel anything because I was so nervous.") If you're sensitive to the cold, I recommend wearing a long-sleeved, slightly thicker shirt. Also, the impact upon landing is stronger than expected, so those with knee issues should be careful. Some people enjoyed landing on their bottoms, but their pants ended up quite wet and dirty. I participated on the last day of my stay in Hawaii, during a winter when the weather can change quickly, but fortunately, the rain that fell in the morning stopped, and it turned into a beautiful day (actually, that afternoon, there was a storm-like rain, and everything was canceled). I didn't feel scared, and thanks to that, it became an invaluable memory as I approach my 40s. I sincerely thank the divers and staff who provided a safe and enjoyable skydiving experience! Thank you!

家族からは反対され、会社の同僚からは奇異な目で見られ、『わたしってヘン？』と思いながら、それでも『飛んでみたい！』という自分の心に従って飛んでみました。結果、飛んでよかった、という気持ちで一杯です。私の場合、飛んだ直後よりこうして自宅に帰ってからのほうが、喜び、満足感がより強くこみ上げてくる感じです。フリーフォールはすごい風と音でクルクルまわりながらあまり景色を楽しむ余裕はありませんが、パラシュートが開いてからゆったりとハワイの美しい海と山々を楽しむことができました。下で待っている間も、他の人たちが次々と降りてくるのを見るのも圧巻ですよ。冬とあってさすがに飛行機の中とフリーフォールの間は寒い！です（一緒に参加した人からは、『冷静ですね~。私は（緊張して）ぜんぜん感じませんでした』と言われましたが）。寒さに弱い方は、長袖の少し厚めのシャツを着ることをお勧めします。また、着地の際は思ったより衝撃が強いのでひざなどに故障がある方は要注意。お尻からの着地を楽しんでいる方もいましたが、結構ズボンがぬれたりよごれていたりしていました。ハワイ滞在最終日に、それも天気の変わりやすい冬に参加しましたが、朝降っていた雨もやんで好天となり幸運でした（実際、その日の午後は嵐のような雨となりすべてキャンセルとなったそうです）。私は怖さも感じず、おかげで40歳台最後のかけがえのない思い出になりました。安全で楽しいスカイダイビングを体験させていただいたダイバー、スタッフの方々に心から感謝します！ありがとうございました！

☆A memorable honeymoon☆ ☆思い出に残る新婚旅行☆

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I tried skydiving for the first time! I’m not great with heights, but it was more fun than I expected, and the rainbow I saw from 4,000 meters up was absolutely beautiful.

The weather was unstable, so we had some delays in jumping that day, but ultimately, I was able to enjoy the amazing views in clear skies. Depending on the instructor, some can be quite enthusiastic, and after opening the parachute, they might spin around a bit too much, which can make you feel a little queasy. Fortunately, my instructor was just right, and I felt perfectly fine.

I wanted photos and videos, but they were too expensive, so I gave up on that. On the way back, since we had some time left, we also did a little sightseeing. I can’t forget the taste of the shrimp I had during that time! Thank you, driver Komiya!

初めてスカイダイビングにチャレンジしました！
高いところは苦手でしたが予想以上に楽しく上空４０００ｍから見た虹はとてもきれいでした。
天気が不安定だったため、その日はなかなかすんなり飛べませんでしたが、最終的には雲のない状態ですばらしい景色を満喫できました。
インストラクターにもよりますが、サービス精神旺盛な人だとパラシュートを開いたあとクルクル回転してくれすぎて少し気分が悪くなる時もあるようです。ちなみに私のインストラクターは程よい感じで全然大丈夫でした。
写真やビデオは欲しかったんですが高すぎて断念しました。。
帰りには時間が残っているということで、プチ観光もしていただきました。その時に食べたシュリンプの味が忘れられません！ドライバーのＫomiyaさんありがとうございました！！

Reviewed by: I❤HAWAI

It was a trip with three friends for four days (actually three days). One of the memories from that trip was booking a skydiving experience at Pacific Skydiving Center two days before the trip after a big decision. I was full of anxiety, but the day itself was incredibly fulfilling and satisfying!!

Mr. KOMIYA, who provided our transportation, was the best staff member we encountered during our trip and someone we will never forget. He felt like a father figure in Hawaii. Surrounded by staff who were unique and helped ease our tension during the skydiving experience, it was definitely a tour we will come back to next time we visit Hawaii.

Together with my friends, we rated our satisfaction ★★★★★!!

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＞

Experience the powerful threat of Kilauea. キラウエアの脅威のパワーを実感

Reviewed by: MARUKO

We participated as a family of four (with children aged 2 and 0). The seating is assigned by the pilot based on the weight of all passengers to maintain the stability of the helicopter, so there’s no guarantee you’ll get a window seat. The pilot speaks in English, so you’ll understand the names of the areas, but if you’re not confident in English, just enjoy the scenery. The ride is smooth, with hardly any turbulence.

The lava flow varies in volume and direction depending on the day, so whether you get to see a spectacular lava flow is a matter of luck. The biggest appeal of the helicopter is that it can get very close to areas that are absolutely inaccessible from land, which is a different level of excitement compared to a Cessna.

If you decide to participate, I recommend going in the morning when the weather is relatively stable, as it tends to rain in the afternoon in Hilo. On a clear day, you can see Mt. Mauna Loa up close and Mt. Mauna Kea in the distance.

During the flight, the scenery and our moments are filmed by the helicopter's onboard camera, and you can purchase the DVD afterward as a travel memory (around $25). This is an experience you can't have in Japan, so if you're staying on the Big Island, definitely give it a try. (However, I wouldn’t recommend bringing a 0-year-old along...)

家族4人（子供2歳・0歳の）で参加しました。座席はパイロットがヘリの安定を保つため全搭乗者の体重を考えて指定されるので窓側に座れるとは限りません。
　パイロットの話す言語は英語なので、各エリアの名前程度は分かりますが英語が苦手な方は景色を楽しんで下さい。乗り心地は良く、揺れもほとんどありません。
　ラバフローは日によって流れ出る量や方角が異なるので、迫力あるラバフローが見られるかどうかは運次第です。
　ヘリの最大の魅力は陸上からは絶対に近づけないエリアに低高度でかなり至近距離に迫れるので、セスナ機とでは迫力が違います。
　参加するなら天候の比較的安定している午前中のなるべく早い時間帯がおすすめです。ヒロは多雨地帯なので午後は雨に降られる確立が高いとのことです。快晴だと、間近にMt.マウナロアを、遠くにMt．マウナケアを見ることができます。
　飛行中の景色や自分達の様子はヘリ搭載のビデをカメラでフルタイム撮影されていて、終了後ＤＶＤとして旅の思い出に是非買って下さい（＄２５程度）。
　日本では出来ない体験なので、ハワイ島に滞在したら是非体験して下さい。（ただし０歳児を一緒に搭乗させることはさすがにおすすめはできません・・・）
