All Reviews for Helicopter & Airplane Tours

이런 경험을 언제나 또 해볼까요? 쵝오
다음에 하와이에 다시올 기회가 된다면 그때도 역시 다시 할꺼야

A once in a lifetime experience.. From the pickup at our hotel to the drop back after the tour, it was all well organised and professional..the view from the helicopter, and our pilots narration was excellent!! We absolutely loved it!! Superb!!

I signed up for 14,000 feet. We left Waikiki just after 5:30 AM, signed the waiver on the bus, and arrived at the location before 6:00 AM. We were blessed with clear skies that day, so as soon as we arrived, we had a brief video explanation and then got ready. They asked if we wanted to take photos and videos; I was hesitant about the video, but they said if I didn't like it later, it was fine to just go with photos, so I decided to go ahead with it. (I figured it would be hard to say I didn't want either after trying.)

After a light briefing from the instructor, we waited for about an hour until it was our turn. As soon as the previous group’s plane returned, we boarded and took off right away. There were about six groups on board, I think. Most people were asking for photos. Those who requested them flew together with the instructor and the cameraman.

It took about 15 minutes to reach 14,000 feet. I thought, "Wow, I'm really high up," but the instructor teased me, saying, "It's okay! You're still in the hangar!" as we continued to gain altitude. When we reached 14,000 feet, the plane door opened. They said, "Alright, it's time to jump!" and before I could even resist, I was standing at the door, and with a countdown of 3, 2, 1, we jumped! Actually, the instructor jumped for us. There was no time for fear.

After a couple of spins in the air, we were in free fall for about a minute! We dropped at such a speed that there was no time to feel scared! I desperately tried to look at the cameraman, but I could hardly breathe. After that, the parachute opened, and I finally got to enjoy the breathtaking view of the North Shore coastline! However, as we gradually descended with the parachute, it was genuinely terrifying... I thought I might faint at one point. Laughing.

While enjoying the stunning views until the end, I experienced a level of descent fear that was incomparable to Fuji-Q Highland, and we landed on the ground. By the time we landed, I was completely dizzy and exhausted.

After landing, I checked the photos and videos. I thought both were too expensive, but I was so excited about the incredible experience that I ended up purchasing both. Laughing. Well, if I didn't buy one, it would only remain in my memory. I think I should have at least bought the photos.

So, my first skydiving experience was truly amazing. I'm already thinking about doing it again on my next trip to Hawaii!!!

14000フィートで申し込みました。
朝の5時半過ぎにワイキキを出発し、バスの中で誓約書にサインなどして、6時前に現地到着。
当日は雲ひとつない快晴に恵まれたため、到着してすぐにビデオによる簡単な説明→準備に入りました。
ここで写真と動画撮影をするか聞かれ、動画は迷っていたものの、後から動画を見てみて気に入らなければ写真だけでもOKとの事でとりあえずお願いしました。（多分、撮ってみたけどどちらも要らないは無理かと。）

インストラクターからの指導も軽く受け、待つこと1時間、自分たちの順番が回ってきました。
前の組の飛行機が戻ってきたらすぐに乗り込み、すぐ離陸。同乗は6組ぐらいだったかな？
ほとんどの人達が写真をお願いしていたと思います。頼んだ人はインストラクターとカメラマンの3人で一緒に飛びます。

14000フィートまで約15分。途中で恐ろしく高いとこにいるなと思ったものの、『ダイジョーブ！まだハンブーン！笑』とインストラクターにからかわれつつ、どんどん高度を上げます。
そして14000フィートに到達した時に、飛行機の扉が開かれました。さぁ飛ぶよ！と言われ抵抗する暇など一切なく、扉の前に立たされ、3,2,1で一気に飛びました！というかインストラクターが勝手に飛びます。恐怖もクソもありません。
空中で2,3回転したあとフリーフォール状態が1分ぐらい続きます！恐怖を感じるヒマもない程のスピードで落ちて行きました！必死でカメラマンに視線を向けるものの何だかうまく息も出来ない。笑
その後パラシュートが開き、ようやくノースショアの海岸線を望む絶景を楽しむ事が出来ました！ただ、パラシュートで徐々に高度を下げて行くときは本当に怖かった。。途中気絶するんじゃないかってほど。。。笑
最後まで絶景を楽しみつつ、富士○ハイランドの比じゃないほとの下降の恐怖を繰り返しつつ、地上に降り立ちました。
降りた時にはもうフラフラで骨抜き状態。

降りて写真とビデオをチェック。両方は高すぎるなと思ってたものの、とんでもない体験に胸高まっていたのかどちらも購入してしまいました。笑
まぁでもどちらか買わないと頭の中にしか残らないですからね。写真だけでも購入すべきかと。

そんな訳で、人生初のスカイダイビングはもう本当に最高でした。もう既に次回のハワイでもやりたいと思ってます！！！

The weather was favorable, and the view from the sky was amazing! Compared to a helicopter, there was less turbulence, and my mother, who is over 70, enjoyed the sightseeing flight without any issues and was very satisfied with the view of Waikiki from above. She even regretted not opting for a longer flight time (laughs). I am planning to try a course where I can pilot the aircraft myself next time.

天候に恵まれたこともあり、空からの眺めは最高でした！
ヘリコプターに比べ揺れも少なく、70歳すぎの母も問題なく遊覧飛行を満喫し、上空からのワイキキの景色に大満足しておりました。
もっと長い飛行時間にすればよかったと悔やんでいたほど（笑）
私は次回は自分で操縦するコースにトライしたいと目論んでおります。

I experienced it for the first time.

Tomorrow is skydiving...
I was excited from the day before.

When I went to sleep...
I woke up just 10 minutes before the meeting time!!

I was so looking forward to skydiving that I overslept.

There were many Japanese people at the site, but also people from various countries.

The instructors and locals casually talked to us.

Everyone helped ease the tension.

Finally, it was time for the flight—time for skydiving.

It was a brief experience, but it was so much fun.

We were blessed with good weather, and it became a memorable skydiving experience for a lifetime.

初めて体験しました。

明日は、スカイダイビングだ…。
と思い、前日からワクワクワク。

と思い、眠ると…
なんと、集合時間１０分前に起床！！

寝坊してしまう程、楽しみにしていたスカイダイビング。

現地には日本人も多いですが、多国籍の人人人。

気楽に話を掛けてくるインストラクターの方、現地の方。

みんなが緊張を和らいでくれました。

いざフライトー、いざスカイダイビングー。

あっという間の時間でしたが、とても楽しかったです。

天気にも恵まれ、気持ち良く、一生の思い出となったスカイダイビングでした。

It was my first experience.
At first, I thought, "This is scary," and "Will I be okay?" but the instructor was very kind and funny, which helped me overcome my fear.

Then it was time for the flight.

Until I jumped out, I was a little scared, but once I was flying...
In front of me was the entire island of Oahu.
It was so beautiful, and the skydiving experience went by in an instant.

Is it a once-in-a-lifetime experience? Maybe.

No...
I thought I wanted to experience it again.

初めての体験でした。
初めは「怖い。」、「大丈夫かな。」と思っていましたが、インストラクターの方がとても優しく、また面白い方で恐怖心を無くしてくれました。

いざフライトへ。

飛び出すまでは、少し怖かったですが、いざ飛んでみると…
目の前は、一面オアフ島。
とても綺麗であっという間のスカイダイビングでした。

人生に一度の体験！？かな。

いや…
もう１度体験したいと思いました。

Was so exciting n great had an awesome piolt doug he was a great driver n was funny knew alot about the island was a nice smooth ride n not scary at all will fly again with doug

The instructor explained everything clearly, allowing us to enjoy the skies of Oahu without fear and have fun. We were also very satisfied with the videos and images.

インストラクターの方もわかりやすく教えてくれて恐怖もなく楽しくオアフ島の空を楽しむことが出来ました。
動画や画像も大満足です。

The helicopter ride took about 30mins which is really not enough to see Honolulu and around. The pilot was great but he only flew over certain areas once so only people at certain side could see and take pictures. I was expecting him to turn around 360 so everybody can take pictures. Great views of Waikiki, Honolulu, Diamond Head.

It seems we didn't go up to 4000 meters, so we received a partial refund. The view from above was, of course, breathtaking, but the instructor who was in charge was really scary, and I was so tense that my whole body was stiff. Other instructors were much friendlier and smiled a lot, so it varies from person to person. I had planned to ask for photos since I was there, but I found out that each person had to pay individually instead of as a group, and it was quite expensive, so I gave up on that.

高度4000mには行かなかったようで、いくらか返金がありました。
上空からの景色はもちろん絶景ですが、担当して下さったインストラクターの方がとにかく怖くて、全身に力が入ってしまうほど緊張しました。他のインストラクターの方は笑顔も多くフレンドリーだったので、人それぞれですね。。
せっかくやるなら写真をお願いしようと思っていたのですが、1グループではなく1人1人でお金を支払わないといけなくて、高額なので断念しました。

Best experience ever. Highly recommended. I wasn't able to make Ultimate one due to the weather. Definitely will try that one again in the future.

Gracias por hacer nuestra luna de miel perfecta con sus atenciones y la magia de estar en las alturas y las hermosas vistas que es una experiencia que no se compara con nada y esperamos volver para subirnos de nuevo gracias.

It's a once in a lifetime thing and it did not disappoint at all. Loved every minute of it. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I would love to jump again. Chico is great. Mahalo.

From my upbringing to my time in Hawaii.
This world is filled with meaningless bragging about money.
In the end, there was a flyer printed with my profile.

I wish they would let me sleep since it's so early in the morning...
I won't be using this service again. It's annoying!

Oh, but the skydiving itself was incredibly fun!! Otherwise, I wouldn't even want to give it a star!

自分の生い立ちから、ハワイに来てからのこと。
この世はお金だばかりの意味の分からない自慢話。
あげくは自分のプロフィールが印刷されたチラシ。

朝早いんだから寝かせて欲しい…
もう、この業者は使いません。
鬱陶しいわ！

あ。スカイダイビング自体は非常に楽しかったです！！
じゃなければ星すら付けたくない！

It was thrilling, and I was very satisfied to see the magnificent nature of Hawaii from the sky! I definitely want to do it again in Hawaii.

スリル満点でハワイの雄大な自然も空からみる事が出来て大満足！
またhawaii で絶対にやりたいです。

The day before had terrible weather, but on the day itself, it was clear with almost no clouds and no wind. I was quite lucky, arriving as the second group, so my turn came up quickly. (A few groups later, clouds started to appear. The photo is of the group that flew after me.)

Conversations with the instructors were only in English, but they were very considerate and helped ease my nerves, which gradually led to a sense of reassurance, making me feel like I could just leave it to them.

When it was finally my turn to dive, it was really up to the instructor's timing, so saying "wait a minute" doesn't work! It felt like being pushed off. However, the view was amazing, and I was captivated by the scenery, which naturally doubled my enjoyment.

Unlike the feeling of a roller coaster or an airplane, it felt like I was falling at a constant speed. My reactions became more like those of a foreigner. I might say that it felt scarier after the parachute opened. There were services that spun us around, and as we got closer to the ground, I started to feel the distance to the ground, which made it even scarier.

The impact when the parachute opened wasn't too strong, and I don't think it would hurt. When landing, you lift your legs, but if you land on the grass, your pants might get dirty, so I recommend wearing clothes that you don't mind getting dirty. Sturdy fabric clothing would be best.

The wait until the return time is due to the negative checks for those who ordered photos and videos. If someone in the same car ordered, you'll have to wait until their negative check is done. However, it's possible to ride back with another car that leaves earlier, so it’s a good idea to ask the driver. There's one person, an elderly man named Mickey Takahashi, who understands Japanese, so you might want to talk to him.

Photos and videos are expensive, but I think it's worth ordering them. Without them, the only proof of my jump would be a certificate, and I wouldn't be able to convey this amazing experience to my friends! It's about the same price as jumping again, but I think ordering them is a good idea. Otherwise, like me, you might regret not ordering them later.

It seems that some people cancel on the day. A few days before, I couldn't eat and couldn't sleep at night, but after actually jumping, I felt I had an incredible experience that happens only a few times in a lifetime. I want to save up and go again.

For those who are hesitating! Definitely! Give it a try. You won't regret it!

前日は凄く天候が悪かったのですが、当日は快晴で雲もほとんど無く、風もありませんでした。
色々と運も良くて、到着して２組目で順番が廻ってきました。
（何組か後になると雲が出てきました。写真は私が飛んだ後の組の写真です。）
インストラクターの方々との会話は英語のみですが、色々と気を遣ってくれて緊張をほぐしてくれている感がとても伝わってきました。それが徐々に安心感に繋がり、後はお任せしようと思うようになりました。
いざダイブの順番がくると、事実上、インストラクターのタイミングでダイブするので、ちょっと待ってぇ～は通用しません！突き落とされる感じです。
でも、景色が素晴らしくて、周りの景色に目を奪われて、自然と楽しさが倍増してきました。
ジェットコースーターや飛行機の、あのフワッと感は全く無くて、一定の速度で落ちてる感じがありました。自然とリアクションも外人ぽっくなったりします。
どちらかと言うとパラシュートが開いてからの方が恐いかもしれません。
クルクル回るサービスがあったり、だんだん地上が近いづいてくると地上との距離感を感じてしまって、逆に恐くなってしまいます。
パラシュートが開いた瞬間の衝撃はあまり強くなくて、痛いと感じることはないと思います。
着地の時は足を上げて降りるのですが、芝生の上にお尻を着くとズボンが汚れるので、汚れても良い服装の方が良いと思います。丈夫な生地の服装が良いと思います。
帰りの時間まで待たされるのは写真やビデオを注文した人のネガチェックがあるからです。
一緒の車で来た人の中に注文した人がいれば、その人のネガチェックが終わるまでは待つ事になります。ただ、先に帰る車に同乗することも可能なので、ドライバーに聞いてみると良いと思います。１人だけミッキー高橋という日本語が分かるおじいさんがいるので、その人と話してみてください。
写真やビデオは高いですが注文した方が良いと思います。
無ければ自分が飛んだ証拠が証明書以外に無く、この感動を友人に話しても全く伝わりません！
もう一回飛ぶくらいの価格ですが注文して損は無いと思います。逆に後から注文しておけば良かった～などと私のように後悔してしまいます。

当日、ドタキャンする人もいるみたいです。私も数日まえからご飯が喉を通らなくなり、夜も眠れなくなりましたが、実際に飛んでみて、一生に何度と無い素晴らしい体験が出来たと思います。またお金を貯めて行ってみたいと思います。
迷っている方！是非！チャレンジしてみてください。絶対に損は無いです！

first of all, thanks for support and help for experiencing this amazing activity.
however, it seems that i lost my sunglasses there. So please check whether or not you have any missing sunglasses . If so, please keep it and contact me so that we could recieve it ASAP. it is very meaningful sunglasses to my wife.

your efforts and support would be appreciated.

thanks.

This was my first time skydiving and I could not have asked for a more fun experience. The instructor, Emanuel, was very helpful, laid back, and made me feel comfortable. The view from 14,000 feet was spectacular, we could see pearl harbor from where we jumped!

Diving is the best!
If you want an unreal experience, this is the only way!
Everyone, please try skydiving at least once in your life!

ダイビング最高！
非現実的な体験をしたいなら、これしかないです！
是非皆さん、
人生に一度、
スカイダイビングをしてみてください！

The dive was short but the view was beautiful. Would definitely do it again.

Blue Hawaiian made it a truly perfect addition to our holiday with their professionalism, knowledgeable staff and top-service. The little extras made the difference such as the ability to buy the video immediately after the flight for a very reasonable $40. A great first-time helicopter experience for us and hopefully not the last one!

I've lived in Hawaii for about 8 years and I thought I've seen everything. Just getting to ride a helicopter was already an amazing experience. Getting to ride it over Hawaii made it even better. I felt like a tourist seeing Hawaii for the first time. I'm also a big fan of Jurasic World and I kinda freaked when I found out they used Blue Hawaii Helicopter for the movie. I would recomend this tour to anyone; even locals.

It was my first experience. My wife waited at the condo while I participated alone. As others have mentioned, the only scary part was jumping out of the Cessna (I think it would have taken me longer to jump out if I were alone), but after that, it was exhilarating!! It was a wonderful experience. However, I spent the entire previous day preparing for it, but it was canceled due to bad weather. On this day, I went to the North Shore at 5 AM (which meant getting up at 4 AM), and although I was able to jump right away, I ended up waiting quite a bit afterwards. Since it's a dangerous sport involving nature, I suppose it's unavoidable, but it's important to approach it with plenty of time to spare.

初めての体験でした。嫁さんはコンドで待ち。僕一人で参加しました。他の人も書いている通り、怖かったのはセスナを飛び出す時だけで（自分独りだったら飛び出すのに時間がかかったと思います）、後は快感でした！！素晴らしい体験でした。ただ、僕は前日丸一日を要して挑んだのですが、天候が悪くキャンセル。この日も朝の5時から（そのため4時起き）ノースショアに行き、飛ぶのはすぐだったのですが、その後がかなり待たされました。自然相手の危険なスポーツなので仕方ないのでしょうが、時間の余裕を持って挑む必要があります。

I have always longed for the sky since I was a child. Originally, I have a fear of heights, but I always wanted to fly at least once in my life. This year, as I celebrate my 60th birthday, I thought of it as a milestone in my life and decided to take the plunge and fly. It was amazing. Thank you (=^ェ^=)

小さい頃から空に憧れがありました。本来、私は高所恐怖症なのですが、人生一回は飛びたいと思ってました。
今年還暦を迎えるので、人生の一回りの区切りと考えて思い切って飛びましたよ。最高でした。ありがとう(=^ェ^=)

If you never do any thing else, take this trip.
You will never forget this trip of your life.
Just plain awesome!

The experience was fun and we enjoy it as a family. But my husband video was not that good compared to ours. He is far away from the camera so we were not happy with the video. But over all experienced is memorable and will last us for a lifetime.

We decided to take our very first helicopter ride on the North Shore, and it was so much better than we could have asked for! Pilot Bob was great - super friendly, funny, and provided us with facts about everything we saw on our trip. We fell in love with the North Shore, and it was so incredible to see some of our favorite spots from an aerial view. We would totally recommend this to anyone who is staying in Oahu!

I was a bit anxious about my first skydiving experience, but I enjoyed it without any problems. It was a little chilly when falling, but the view was amazing and it felt really good. What surprised me compared to what I imagined was that the time after the parachute opened was unexpectedly long. The instructor kindly spun us around as a service, but it was scarier than the fall itself, haha. But it was the best experience!

初めてのスカイダイビングで不安もありましたが、問題なく楽しめました。
落ちる時は少し肌寒くて、なにより景色が最高で本当に気持ちよかったです。
やってみて想像と違ったのは、パラシュートが開いてからの時間が意外と長く
インストラクターさんがサービスでくるくる回ったりしてくれたのですが、
落ちる時以上に怖かったです笑
でも最高の経験でした！

First of all, it's unfortunate that I could only fly at a low altitude due to the weather, while my companion was able to fly normally. I would like to challenge myself again next time.

まず、残念なのが私は天候により低空飛行でしか飛べなく、連れはまともに飛行出来ていたので、次こそはまた挑戦してチャレンジしたいと思います。

This time, only my husband flew. He was really moved by the wonderful experience. The tip for the person flying with you is $20. There were various opinions about this, but personally, I believe that the person flying with you is someone you entrust your life to. It’s only natural to pay, and it is definitely worth it. I hope everyone will pay it.

今回夫だけが、飛びました。本当に素晴らしい体験が出来たと感動していました。一緒に飛んでくれる人へのチップが20ドル。これに対して色んな意見がありましたが、私的には共に飛んでくれる人。命を預ける人です。支払って当然だし、またその価値が十分あります。ぜひに皆払って欲しいです。
