Big Island Spectacular

Without a doubt one of the greatest experiences we've had! My wife and I took our brother-in-law on the tour since he was visiting the island. Everyone from making the reservation in person, to the ground crew and our pilot Matt could not have been friendlier, more professional or accommodating. Matt provided us with a great flight including a landing on the North Coast of the island very near waterfall. I flew for a living around the world for 34 years, retiring in 2017, and I can tell whether a pilot is competent, experienced and professional. Matt Is all of those and more. I would feel absolutely comfortable allowing my family to ride onboard his aircraft. We will definitely be back when we have more visitors from the mainland. Mahalo nui from Kealakekua.

We have flown a few times with Blue Hawaiian and it's great fun every time. Matthew Brantner was our pilot the last two times: Not only was his piloting on point but his knowledge of the island (geology, biology, weather, settlements, etc.) is comprehensive... all the questions we had were answered in lovely detail.
