The Big Island of Hawaii is the largest island in the Hawaiian archipelago—almost as large as all the other islands combined—and bursting with life. Within 4,000 square miles of land, you’ll experience dense tropical rainforests, black-sand beaches, snow-capped peaks, remnants of ancient Hawaiian settlements, and the incredible Kilauea volcano.

Maui is renowned for its unimaginable beauty. Alpine-like forests cover the upcountry slopes of Mt. Haleakala, the world’s largest dormant volcano. The famed “Road to Hana” hugs the coast, white sandy beaches line the shores, and magnificent sea cliffs hover over the blue Pacific. An aerial tour of Maui will quickly reveal why it’s continually been voted “The World’s Best Island.”

Oahu is the cultural heart of the Hawaiian Islands, offering an eclectic mix of tradition, Hawaiian history, and stunning natural beauty. Beyond Waikiki Beach, the historic sights of Pearl Harbor and the cosmopolitan city of Honolulu, you’ll discover gorgeous shorelines, hidden valleys, cascading waterfalls, and the famed North Shore.

The incomparable Na Pali Coast, Waimea Valley (the “Grand Canyon of the Pacific”), and stunning Mount Waiʻaleʻale (the second wettest place on earth), are among Kauai’s incredible wonders that are so remote, they are only accessible by helicopter.

I happen to be a pilot flying single engine fixed wing aircraft. I’ve never flown in a helicopter before. Our pilot was Matt. He took us up close and personal to sights we would never see from my airplane. His control of the aircraft was masterful…my wife was a little concerned about flying in a helicopter, Matt (doesn’t know this) made her very comfortable (very smooth on the controls). I watched Matt do a very thorough pre-flight on the aircraft. These people took very good care of us. It was our 53rd wedding anniversary…what a treat. Can I go again?
It was our 1st time in a helicopter for my wife and myself. Steve is a great pilot, and made everyone onboard feel at ease. He was communicating with us through a headset the entire time. He was extremely knowledgeable about the location, and shared many things with us. The views from the helicopter in places you can’t get to by a car or boat were breathtaking. I’d highly recommend this tour, company, and more specifically Steve, the pilot. My pictures don’t do it justice as I was in the middle seat not next to the window.
This was an amazing tour yesterday! Beautiful to see the Big Island from a different perspective and to see areas we wouldn’t have been able to see otherwise. The entire staff was incredible. Tour was informative. We would definitely do this again.
We loved every minute of our Maui helicopter tour with Blue Hawaiian! Incredible views that could not be seen any other way. Matt the pilot is awesome! Highly recommend, just do it!
It was an amazing experience, the pilot was great, telling stories and everything about the island. The helicopter was comfortable and not loud. I Totally recommended !
Fantastic views from the oversized windows, friendly staff, knowledgeable and safety-conscious pilot—an extremely low stress and worthwhile experience. In my dozen or so visits to the island, this was one of the best adventures I’ve ever done. 45 minutes was the perfect amount of time for this extremely motion-sick prone person to be in the air without getting too nauseous and still explore all the highlights and majestic beauty of the island. Highly recommend.
