Honolulu to Hilo One Day Fly Away Tour - Volcanoes National Park & Waterfalls

Enjoyed the trip, room for improvement

Reviewed by: Robert

Positives: our flights were on time and without incident with greeters ready for us at the terminal.
Our tour guide was fun and enthusiastic.
We made it to all places on itinerary without being rushed.
Negatives: I found it unusual compared to other tours that the guide stayed with the bus which meant we didn't get any feedback while visiting sites, only in between.
The coordination of three different groups of customers on different incoming and outgoing flights a) took a lot of time b) distracted the tour guide

If I had to do it all over again I would look for a tour where all customers are on the same flight or leave if customers haven't arrived at designated time / spot within 30 minutes of start time.

Honolulu to Hilo One Day Fly Away Tour - Volcanoes National Park & Waterfalls

A jam-packed day

Reviewed by: Cathy

We took the Big Island Volcano tour from Oahu last week - it was a long but enjoyable day.

Leroy was our guide/driver, and he was everything you could want from a tour guide - friendly, knowledgeable and patient. All of the places visited were interesting. There was no lava to be seen, just steam rising from Kilauea, but we knew to expect this when we booked. Leroy allowed just the right amount of time at each stop, and told us a lovely story about Pele, the goddess of fire, on the trip back down the mountain.

The only slight downside was that the GO Airlines flight back to Oahu was delayed by 2hrs, so it made for a very long day.

Make sure you wear sturdy shoes and take a jacket as the temperature drops significantly when up on the mountain. We were blessed with good weather, but I am told that it does rain quite a bit on the Big Island, so perhaps also take a foldup umbrella.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful island with us !

The best time. 最高の時間

Reviewed by: Ayu Suzuki

I had heard from my parents about their trip to see the lava before I was born, and I was really looking forward to this helicopter tour. The weather in Waikoloa was great, but there were a lot of clouds in the direction of Mauna Kea, which made me a bit anxious. Unfortunately, my worries came true, and due to bad weather, the tour to see the lava in Hilo was canceled. I was extremely sad, but I felt relieved knowing that the staff prioritized safety. The Japanese pilot mentioned that Waipi'o Valley is also wonderful, and that it was okay to cancel. He even said that they would refund the entire tour fee, so I asked my parents if we could go on the tour just to Waipi'o Valley. I had been on a helicopter in Japan before, but when we took off and flew over the vast land of the Big Island, I was moved by its grandeur. There were a few clouds and it rained a bit along the way, but flying over Waipi'o Valley felt like entering a completely different world, almost like a dream. I saw many waterfalls flowing between the valleys, and I wanted to drink from them. It was a little scary flying through the valley, but even at 12 years old, I was able to experience a lot of emotions.

私は、私が生まれる前に、パパやママが溶岩を見に行ったことを聞かせれていて、この遊覧飛行をとても楽しみにしていました。ワイコロアはとても天気が良かったのですが、マウナケアの方角は雲が多っかたので、ちょっと不安でした。不安は当り、天候が悪いので、溶岩が見れるヒロ方面はツアーが中止になってくれました。ものすごく悲しかったけれど、安全を第一に考えてくれるスタッフの皆さんに、残念な気持ちと裏腹に安堵の感がありました。日本人のパイロットの人が、ワイピオ渓谷も素晴らしいですよ、でもキャンセルしても構いません。ツアー料金は全て返しますとまで言ってくれて、パパとママにお願いをしてワイピオ渓谷のみのツア－に行くことにしました。日本でヘリコプタ－には乗ったことがあったけど、離陸のとき、ハワイ島の大地を飛んでいくとき、その広大な迫力に感動しました。少し雲があったり、途中で雨が降ってきたけれど、ワイピオ渓谷、まるで違う世界にきたような、夢をみているような感じがしました。渓谷の合間から流れ出る、たくさんの滝、飲んでみたくなりました。渓谷の中を飛んでいるときちょっと怖かったけれど、１２歳の私でも多くの感動を味わうことができました。

Big Island Tour

Reviewed by: K Moore

We enjoyed the tour of the Big Island and our guide John was very knowledgeable and pleasant. We did not appreciate having to wait nearly an hour upon arrival at the 'Big Island' airport for a second plane to arrive with further passengers. Also, as with all other tours, MANY fewer stops at commercial places where one is expected to buy would be great. There is more of value one could do in the time than trawl shops.

When Sam, our guide for the day, picked up my wife and I at our hotel, on time, we thought he was taking us to another location to meet up with a busload of other people for our movie tour. Instead, he said it was just the three of us on today's tour, off on a day of movie magic.
After sharing some of our favorite Kauai filmed movies with Sam, he made sure he highlighted several of the filming locations along the way. My wife and I never knew there were so many movies filmed on Kauai and so many spectacular locations to see. Sam was involved in pre-production scouting of locations for "The Descendants" and so was very knowledgeable about scenes from that movie and scores of others.
Sam personalized our tour for us, even fulfilling my request for a Bubba Burger and shave ice. He was a ukulele master musician and serenaded us at several stops along the way.
This tour made for a day in paradise that we will never forget!

The view that can only be seen from a helicopter is amazing. ヘリでしかわからない景色が見れて最高

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Since the ocean entry of lava is currently unavailable, I opted for a helicopter tour. I was worried because it had been cloudy until the day before, but we were blessed with clear skies and were able to see breathtaking views. There were past craters scattered around, allowing us to witness the remnants of previous lava flows and observe how lava changes over time. The contrast between dry and rainy areas was also visible, giving us a sense of nature's dynamism. We could see roads cut off by lava flows, lava within the currently active Puʻu ʻŌʻō crater (which was a bit far away, and I wished we could get a little closer), and people walking towards the ocean entry. It was a comprehensive view of everything related to lava.

I took a lot of photos, but I was surprised at how different the intensity of the actual experience was compared to the pictures when I looked at them later. It was an impressive flight, and I would love to fly again by helicopter when lava activity becomes more active. The people who picked us up, the helicopter mechanics, the reception staff, and the pilot were all very kind, making it a truly enjoyable flight.

Laveのオーシャンエントリーが現在はないとのことで、ヘリにしました。
前日まで曇りで心配しましたが、快晴に恵まれ、迫力のある景色が見れました。
過去の噴火口があちこちにあり、過去のlaveの流れたあとを目にすることができるし、時の流れでlaveがどのように変化するか、乾燥地帯と多雨地帯の相違も目で見て自然のダイナミックさを感じることができました。また、laveの流れで寸断された道路や、現在活動中のpuoo火口内のlave（ちょっと遠くて、もう少し近づいてほしかった）、オーシャンエントリーに歩いていく人たち。laveに関するものが一望できました。
いっぱい写真も撮りましたが、帰って見た写真と実物の迫力がこれほど違うかとびっくりするぐらいでした。
laveの活動が活発になったら、もう一度ヘリで飛びたいと思う印象的なフライトでした。
迎えに来てくれた人や、ヘリの整備士の活動も見れたし、受付の人、パイロットはみんな親切でとても楽しいフライトでした。

Is Kilauea sleepy now!? 今、キラウェアはスリーピー！？

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I wanted to see the flowing lava into the ocean, so I joined a helicopter tour. Since the explanation was in English, I didn't fully understand the details, but looking down at the Big Island from the helicopter was fascinating; it was just like the geography I studied in school, showing the natural landscape as it is.

However, the volcano we aimed for wasn't very active, and we only saw a few spots where the lava was slowly flowing. From above, it was hard to tell if it was actually moving. Currently, the lava is described as "sleepy." There were no signs of lava erupting or falling into the ocean. While there was some hot lava, since it was a morning flight, we could only see a few areas glowing red, which might look different at night. I booked this about two months ago, so the condition of the volcano largely depends on luck. Given the current situation, I think a hiking and stargazing tour would allow for a closer view of the flowing lava. It might be a good idea to check the volcano's status before deciding on a tour.

That said, helicopters can’t fly due to weather conditions, and in the past two instances with other tour companies, my flights were canceled because of the weather, so I was glad we were able to fly.

　海に流れ落ちる溶岩、流れる溶岩を見たいと思い、ヘリコプターツアーに参加しました。英語解説だったのでで詳しいことはよくわかりませんでしたが、ヘリコプターから見下ろすハワイ島は、昔地理で勉強した地形のでき方そのまま、自然そのままな様子をしっかりと見ることができ面白かったです。
　ただ、目的の火山があまりアクティブでなく、のんびり溶岩が流れている様子が何カ所か見られるのみでした。それも上空からだと動いているかどうかは実感できません。今（今日？）溶岩はスリーピーとのこと。溶岩が噴出していたり、海には落ちていたりする様子はありませんでした。熱い溶岩がない訳ではないのですが午前中のフライトなので、溶岩がところどころ赤くなっていることが分かる程度で、夜だったら見え方は多少違うのかもしれません。2ヶ月くらい前に予約したので、火山の状態がどうかは運によるところが大きいのでしょう。この状態ならハイキングと星空ツアーの方が、より近くで流れる溶岩を見られてよいかと思いました。火山の状態をチェックしながらどのツアーにするか考えるとよいかもしれません。
　とはいえ、ヘリコプターは天気によって飛べないことがあり、過去2回、他のツアー会社ですが天気のせいでキャンセルになっているので、飛べてよかったです。

I hoped to be a Japanese pilot, but I ended up participating in an English tour without any mention of that. The scenery was wonderful, and I was moved, but since I was seated next to the pilot (the computer assigns seats based on weight), I kept seeing the pilot yawn, which made me nervous. When I asked, "Are you sleepy?" he replied, "No!" so I took his word for it. The first hour was over Kilauea, and the second hour was over Waipi'o Valley. There was a stop at Hilo Airport for a break. Anyway, I'm glad we arrived safely.

日本語パイロットを希望したのですが、全くそれに触れられることもなく、英語のツアー参加になりました。
素晴らしい景色で、感動しましたが、パイロットの方の横の席になったせいで（体重でコンピューターが、席を決めます）、パイロットのあくびが何度も目に入り、緊張しました。
「Are you sleepy～」と聞いたら、「No!」と言われたので、それを信じて乗っていました。
前半１時間は、キラウエア、後半１時間は、ワイピオ渓谷です。途中、ヒロ空港に立ち寄り休憩があります。

It was amazing! I was also grateful that the pilot happened to be Japanese. While flying in the sky, he provided a thorough guide. I ended up sharing the ride with a Canadian family, and we enjoyed the English guide while sharing our excitement together.
One issue I encountered was when I arrived at the hotel and needed to make a call, but the person on the other end only spoke English. Since I hardly understand English, I ended up asking for help from the Japanese desk at the hotel, which resolved the situation.
The price is high, but it is well worth the experience. I recommend this tour for both couples and families.

最高でした！たまたま操縦士の方が日本人だったことも，ありがたかったです。上空を飛んでいるときには丁寧なガイドをしてくださいました。カナダ人の家族と同乗することになりましたが，英語のガイドも楽しみつつ，みんなで感動を分かち合いました。
困った点としては，現地でホテルに着いたときに連絡をするのですが，その電話先の方が英語しかわからなかったことです。私も英語はほとんどわからないので，結局ホテルにある日本語デスクの方に協力をお願いして事なきを得ました。
値段は高いですが，この感動には十分見合った金額です。カップルでもファミリーでもおすすめのツアーです。

Unfortunately, 残念ながら

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated in early December 2011. Unfortunately, I had joined a tour to see the lava in 2009, but due to the wind direction of the gas, I couldn't see the ocean entry. I thought about getting a revenge tour, but I was informed that there wasn't much volcanic activity and the ocean entry couldn't be seen, so I decided to join the helicopter tour to see it from above. This time, there was a bit of light rain, and I could only see the moving lava with the naked eye to a limited extent. I was able to see trees being consumed by the lava and flames rising, as well as lava flowing down the cliffs like a thin waterfall. I plan to get revenge during a time of more active activity. However, it was enjoyable to see the town of Kalapana, which had been swallowed by lava in the past, with houses starting to be built again, and the beautifully planted macadamia nut farms. It seems that the seating is determined by weight at check-in, and luckily, I was seated next to the pilot. On the way back to the airport, everyone enjoyed chatting, but I regretted not studying English conversation more. There were participants from various countries.

あいにく２００９に溶岩を見に行くツアーに参加しましたが、溶岩のオーシャンエンターがガスの風向きで見れず、リベンジをと思いましたが、火山活動があまりなくオーシャンエンターは見れないとのことで、ヘリで上から見てみたいと参加しました。今回も小雨混じりで動いている溶岩は肉眼で少し確認できた程度でした。生えている木が溶岩に呑まれて炎が上がっている様子や、細い滝のようにがけを流れている溶岩が見れました。　また活発な活動の際にリベンジです。　しかし上空から昔溶岩に飲み込まれた町カラパナにまた家がぽつぽつ建ちだしている様子や、壮大にきれいに植えられているマカダミアナッツ農場を見れたりと楽しかったです。受付時の体重で席は決められるようで、ラッキーなことにパイロットの並び席でした。空港に戻る際にはみんなで会話を楽しむかんじでしたが、もっと英会話べんきょうしとくべきだったといつもの後悔でした。いろんな国の方が参加されていました。

Reviewed by: 小春ばぁちゃん

On the second day in Hawaii, I had a reservation, but it was canceled due to bad weather in Hilo (tears). It was disappointing since Waikoloa had nice weather. Due to my schedule, the only available day was the checkout day, so I rescheduled it as that was my last chance. On the final day, while waiting nervously, I was told it was okay to go today.

For those with flexible schedules, I recommend making reservations as early as possible, and if the tour is canceled due to weather, it's good to have a backup date.

Now, the actual flight was amazing. Unfortunately, the volcano was in a state of calm, so I couldn't see the dynamic lava flows or ocean entry, but I could see lava from a hole in the ground! I also saw black streaks that made me think lava was flowing underground, which was both exciting and a bit scary. It was great to see the charm of Hawaii Island's green lava landscape from the sky. However, since it was an English tour, I didn't understand most of the explanations, but even without them, seeing the scenery in front of me was more than enough to enjoy.

I participated with my 4-year-old and 1-year-old, and the kids were satisfied too!

We participated as a family of four, including our children (ages 4 and 2). The price is honestly high, but it was a valuable tour.

As of November 2011, the volcano was in a state of calm, so we couldn't see the flowing lava, but we were able to see red magma and smoke from the cracks in the earth. It was great to see the different landscapes of the island from the air, including near waterfalls, the ocean, and land with varying climates.

By the way, our original reservation date was canceled due to bad weather after checking in on-site. Since we had some flexibility in our schedule, we were able to change it to a later date and participate without any issues. If you make a reservation, I recommend booking for the first half of your arrival in Hawaii and setting aside an extra day as a backup.

I had hoped for a Japanese-speaking pilot for our weekday reservation, but unfortunately, the guidance was in English. Honestly, I didn't understand most of the explanations, but I enjoyed the scenery. If there had been a Japanese guide, I might have enjoyed it even more. That's the only disappointment.

Honolulu to Hilo One Day Fly Away Tour - Volcanoes National Park & Waterfalls

Nice day

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Nice and enjoyable day on the Big Island. We got to see quite a few different and beautiful places. The pick-up at the hotel in the morning was a little later than planned and there was some free time at the end of the day waiting for the plane back, but otherwise it was pretty well organized. Volcanoes national park is beautiful and probably unlike anything you've seen before. More time could be spent there and maybe less or skip the Macadamia nut factory, but we got to see the main spots of the park. Guide/driver was fun. Recommend this especially to first timers who don't have the chance to stay on the Big Island.

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＞

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.
