All Reviews for Inter-Island Day Trips

This tour was life changing for me! Such an awesome experience to really see the island and have someone guide you through it so you really understand what you're seeing and the history behind it.

Tour guide was Chris who was excellent. He has a real gift for this, and you can tell he is truly passionate and loves what he does. Makes the tour feel more real and less like show and tell or reading from a script. 10/10 highly recommended tour.

Tour provides you with all the comforts you need for the day so you're never hungry, cold, or unsure of where a clean bathroom is. Even had plugs for you to charge your phone although I had a portable charger with me that day which I recommend for any trip.

The entire tour was incredible. We saw the active volcano with lava spewing out during the flight. The bus tour guide had lots of interesting stories. One person in our group was on a wheelchair and she enjoyed the entire tour as well. Highly recommended.

This tour is very informative. You get to see black sand, volcanoes, waterfalls, and more. Our driver/guide was excellent.
There was more walking than indicated on the website, including climbing lots of stairs. Therefore I was not able to see some of the sites. But if you don't have any mobility issues, I recommend this tour.

Pickup at 4:55 AM. Since it was early, I was a bit sleep-deprived when we set off. The local guide on Kauai Island mentioned that it is called "Kauai Island." The valleys were deep and the scenery was beautiful. On the boat heading to the fern cave, we could hear Hawaiian songs. There was also a practice session for hula. Although Kauai Island is small, the distances traveled were a bit long. It was more than enough for my first sightseeing experience on Kauai Island.

朝の4時55分のピックアップ。時間が早いので少し睡眠不足気味で出発。カウワイ島で現地の添乗員さんに言われたことがカワイイ島ですと。渓谷は深くて景観でした。シダの洞窟に向かう船の中ではハワイアンの歌が聞こえます。フラのさわりの練習もあります。カワイイ島が小さいのですが、移動距離は長めです。初めてのカワイイ島の観光としては十分でした。

Don't miss the helicopter tour, its something you will never forget

Was a little disappointing to have helicopter tour cancelled but that was due to bad weather.
I wouldn't have booked this tour without the helicopter part.
The first part of morning was spent going from Macadamia shop and orchid shop which really didn't interest me.
However the second part of the day was very enjoyable - going through national park.

Overall it was an enjoyable day though it was a very long day and probably could have been an hour or two shorter

Was disappointing that helicopter tour was cancelled but that was due to bad weather - so not much you can do. Probay wouldn't have booked tour without the helicopter part. The first part of island tour was a bit commercial so you can spend money at the macadamia shop and orchid shop. However the second part was very interesting - going through the national park and seeing the damage the volcano has caused.
It's a very long day and probably could have been an hour or two shorter. Despite the initial disappointment was still a fun day though probably wouldn't go back to this island again

Early pickup in Waikiki and flight to Hilo on The Big Island. Well organised with your group being led easily through the whole day. Exciting helicopter flight over the lava and craters and plenty of info given throughout. Coach tour for rest of day to see the National Volcano Museum, plenty of stops at different sites including the walk through the old lava tube, walking on old lava, seeing craters and steam vents. Also stopped at macadamia nut factory and fuschia gardens. It's a long day but well worth it. We were picked up at 4.30am and didn't get back to Waikiki until 8.30pm.

I waited at the designated pickup location before the scheduled time, but they did not come. When I called the company, they said that other participants had already been picked up, and I was picked up by another bus 30 minutes late. On the return bus, there was no member check, and we got on the bus in almost complete silence. Kauai was nice.

指定されたピックアップ場所に定刻前から待っていたが来なかった。
会社に電話すると既に他の参加者はピックアップしたと言って30分遅れ
で他のバスにピックアップされた。
帰りのバスもメンバー確認もなくほぼ無言でバスに乗った。
カウアイ島はよかったです。

Kauai Island is a place I visited for the first time. It's a wonderful location filled with nature. You can encounter the grandeur of Waimea Canyon, fern caves, wildflowers, and various plants. This time, there was a seal lounging on the beach. I'm incredibly grateful to the driver who spotted it and let us know! He found it while driving! It was so cute that I took a lot of pictures, and then I ended up burying my face in the sand. Above all, the talks from Mr. Abeshima, who took care of us throughout the trip, were fantastic. Dressed in a pink Hawaiian dress with a floral hat and sunglasses, he made sure we had a great time and treated us like family, making the trip even more enjoyable. I will never forget Mr. Abeshima's big heart and the magnificent nature of Kauai Island.

カウアイ島は初めて訪れる島になります。自然が沢山あり素敵な場所です。ワイメア渓谷の壮大さシダの洞窟、野生の花、植物に出逢えます。今回はちょうど砂浜にアザラシが寝そべっていました。アザラシを見逃さず教えてくれたドライバーさんに大感謝です。運転中に見つけてくれたんですよ！可愛すぎてで写真を沢山撮ったら砂に顔を埋めてしまいました。そして何よりもずっと面倒をみてくれた安部島さんのトークが最高でした。ピンクのハワイアンドレスにお花の帽子、サングラスのファッションに身を包み一生懸命楽しませてくれまた家族のように接してくださり更に面白い旅となりました。安部島さんの大きな心とカウアイ島の壮大な自然を忘れる事はないでしょう。

I really loved the helicopter tour over Kilauea! The staff at blue Hawaiian were really helpful and our pilot Jeremy was really lovely. The flight went really quickly as there was just so much to see, we even got to see some lava in a crater. It's definitely not big pools of flowing lava on the surface but that would depend on your luck and Mother Nature. Loved it all the same. I found the coach part of this tour a bit too long, as did everyone on the tour. Honestly if it was 2hrs shorter it would have been more enjoyable.

Excellent. Chris was exceptional. Had passion for his job and loves Hawaii

Had a great time Kevin the tour guild was great ,
We even had great weather
If you only can do one tour this would be the one and must have kevin

Our driver and tour host presented us with a very interesting and colorful history of the Big Island. He had a great sense of humor too! He paced the trip on the attendees, when there was an obvious interest in an area. This tour is a good for those wanting to get a broad acquaintance with the Big Island and it's various areas and interests. It was our springboard for other activities!

Nice day & nice organization from VELTRA on that one.
Good comments & knowledge, full day spent on the big island, nice spots and nice knowledge overall.

Amazing day...a long day! But worth every hour we were up! Would thoroughly recommend! Our tour guide was super knowledgeable with a great sense of humor.
And just a wee tip...we found it better to buy lunch once at the restaurant rather than pre book.

Had the best time doing this tour got to see so much of the island

This was a great tour for our first full day on the island. Kala , our guide, was a world of information about all things Hawaiian! He was so excited to show us turtles on the black sand beach, lava at the volcano,and beautiful Waipio Valley. He gave us great ideas on where the best burgers and the most delicious malasadas on the island where...and yes we went back to try them ! It was a long day, but as others had commented before me, it flew by!

Tour Guide was great!!!!!! Great Value!

Would suggest that you have passengers switch seats during the tour. Unfortunately we get the back seats and the viewing is not as good as the seats further towards the front. Also it was harder to talk to the guide from back there. Might be nice if halfway thru the tour everyone switch seats.

The tour tour was as described. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and presented various flowers and other botanical specimens common to the island. The lunch was also very good.
We had a wonderful time exploring Hawaii on this tour.

this tour is not for the faint of heart, The road lives up to its' reputation! It is a bit long but worth every minute. The guide was knowledgeable and an excellent driver. The lunch provided was not very good and we recommended that be changed in the near future.

We had a blast! Beautiful views and the only way to really see the lava inside the volcano! I'm so glad we did the helicopter tour instead of the one without!

The helicopter ride was amazing! Absolutely unbelievable and breathtaking. The motorcoach bus tour was a bit longer than we expected it to be plus you can only see so much volcanic rock in one sitting before you feel like you've seen it all. But the views were unforgettable. The guides for both the helicopter and bus tour were informative, knowledgeable and made the trip fun. I highly recommend it!!

This company was everything they said. On time with an accurate description and follow through of the tour. Professional all the, from booking to the day of tour.

It was the original scenery of Hawaii.
The nature is abundant, and I was able to enjoy authentic hula dancing in the fern cave.
It was a wonderful experience.

ハワイの原風景、そのものでした。
自然が豊富で、シダの洞窟では、本場のフラダンスも堪能できました。
素敵な体験でした。

Overall the tour was well organised and professional. However due to low visibility from low cloud and rain, the helicopter part of the tour was cancelled and refunded. Since the hotel pick up was 6am, we had already flown to the big island before that decision was made, therefore the package became just an expensive day trip bus ride. We would have preferred to cancel the whole trip if we had known the helicopter portion was not gonig ahead, althought that is the decison of the pilots.
The bus tour and guide was very good and knowleldgeable and could not fault what we did experience.

I was able to experience a different kind of great nature compared to the Big Island and Maui. I felt very energized at Waimea Canyon and the Fern Grotto.

ハワイ島やマウイ島とはまた一味違う大自然を感じることが出来ました。
ワイメアキャニオンやシダの洞窟ではとてもパワーを貰えました。

It rained continually all day which was disappointing so we could not see a lot so I will not at any comments on the actual tour. Pre ordered a cheese burger for lunch but this was not on our menu.

I have been to Oahu, Hawaii Island, and Maui many times, but I had never been to Kauai because I had a strong image of it being rural! However, I was surprised when I went! It was the most mystical island! There are many wonderful places to visit, but the breathtaking views of Waimea Canyon truly overwhelmed me! The guide provided detailed information, so I think even first-time solo travelers can enjoy it with peace of mind!

オアフ島、ハワイ島、マウイ島は何度も行ったことがありますが、カウアイ島は田舎というイメージが強くて一度も行ったことありませんでした！
でも、行ってびっくり！一番神秘的な島でした！
素晴らしい場所はたくさんまわりますが、ワイメアキャニオンの絶景は本当に圧倒しました！
ガイドさんも細かく教えてくれて、初めての1人旅行でも安心して楽しめると思います！

We did the Circle Island Tour, small group tour which was fantastic. I cannot say enough about this tour. It was approx. 11.5 hours but the day flew by. Our driver Kevin was amazing and informed us about everything. It was a maximum 12 people which made it very enjoyable. Our lunch break we stopped at an Orchid shop and our driver had picked us up Bento Boxes, it was delicious. We saw everything from waterfalls, rain forest, black sand beach, lava tubes, lava fields, and volcanoes and so much more. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone. Well worth the money.
Thank you for the great tour.
