it is fascinating to see the islands from the air - and to see Molokai - we have taken several Hawaiian helicopter tours - enjoy them very much - Mike handled the helicopter very well and was full of information - it is amazing!!!
This tour was fabulous!! We will absolutely do this again. It was worth every single penny. The views were spectacular and the pilot was fun, friendly, and knowledgeable. Kauai is a beautiful island, and even more breathtaking from above.
ブルーの機体が浮上し、振動もなく離陸。期待が膨らんだ。途中、胸を打ったのは溶岩流の痕跡が何10kmも続いていたのを見て、その猛烈な脅威に震えた。火山のクレーターが鮮明に露見された状態をToshiは直接伝える為、見事な操縦で高度を変えながら、流暢な英語と日本語で説明を続けた。雨が降り、水が川を流れ、海へと繋がる。その途中で草が生え、緑を広げる。所々に落差の大きい滝を形成。その自然の摂理に沿った豊かな変化ある景観はまるで神の偉大なパワーを感じる。高低差300mや800mの滝の清冽な滝の前で記念写真。水の勢いに自然が醸し出す生命力を肌で感じた。光輝くコハラの海は忘れられない。
Our pilot was fantastic & the tour was great . Kauai is beautiful & seeing it from the sky was breathtaking
Amazing from start to finish. We would highly recommend this tour. The pilot and ground crew were awesome.
We had a wonderful experience. All of the employees were professional and helpful. Our pilot was excellent and pointed out many amazing sights. Highly recommend.
YOU MUST DO THIS TOUR. The only way to see all of Kauai! If it’s the only thing you spend money for in Kauai! (LOL) Disclaimer: I’m a tour pilot myself, in another part of the country. I know a quality outfit when I see it, and Blue Hawaiian does absolutely everything right. They’re friendly, efficient, absolutely dedicated to safety yet maintaining a calm, welcoming vibe. Our pilot, Barrett, is a Kauai native, and has been flying for many years. We appreciated that he actually grew up on the island, and he included personal stories with his tour patter, e.g. “we camped there a lot when we were kids” etc. I know for a fact that Barrett loves what he does, even though he’s flown this tour “15,000 times.” As one who can professionally relate to that, I can confirm: he’s not bored with it yet! And how could you be? Kauai is one of the most magical places on earth, and in just 50 minutes, you see all of the highlights. I was fascinated to see how much of the island is virtually unreachable, and how varied the terrain is all around. The well-known highlights of Waimea Canyon and Na Pali Coast are spectacular, but so is the rest of the island. It really gives you an idea of what to see and where to go. And, to just marvel at all of it, even if you can’t get there any other way. We spent the extra $100 (or so) dollars for the seats up front. I strongly recommend it. I don’t know how the seats are in the back, and although every seat offers a view, why not splurge and sit up front? Also recommended: buying the video & professional photos from your flight. You see so much, it’s hard to take it all in at the time. And, their cameras are better anyway. Don’t leave Kauai without taking Blue Hawaiian’s tour!
Five stars all the way around! Spend the extra few dollars for this company. Mike was our awesome pilot. He was so informative with the facts of EVERYTHING we were flying over. He took the time to make sure both sides of the helicopter got their pictures. He found a rainbow & made sure all of us had our chance for a great shot. We felt safe & at comfort the entire time. Great experience & highly recommend it.
The whole experience was amazing. Ethan the pilot was great and gave wonderful and informative information about the volcano and whole region. I would highly recommend this circle of fire tour. All the staff were friendly and helpful . We had great views over the big island , a truly magnificent ride .
Hands down one of the most incredible experiences in my life! The pilot, Benjamin, was amazing very personable and nice. He even played a music sound track to go along with the areas we were viewing. When you go over the area where Jurassic park was filmed he played the sound track it was so surreal. Absolutely incredible. Would 1000% do it again if I ever make the trip back!!

OMG, I recommend this to anyone who is going to Hawaii. It is just a view you just don't get anywhere else. Pilot was very knowledgeable and gave us great insight about the different parts of the island. Staff at the office was knowledgeable and extremely helpful. Just an FYI, Blue Hawaii is farther away than the airport from the main area of Kona, so make sure you plan enough time to get there.
The perspective of seeing the Big Island from the air was definitely a great way to see the diverse geological landscapes especially the vast volcanic fields. It was spendy but worth it and we would do it again if we had the chance. We lucked out with great weather. Recommend using this outfit. They were professional and the staff all friendly. Helicopters were comfortable and roomy with BOSE quality headsets. The ride was smooth (we had good weather that day though) with enough windows for everyone to see. The pilot does do several passes over areas so both sides of the helicopter viewers can see. The Waikoloa location was very convenient as we were staying in that resort village. Another reason to do the helicopter tour was because a number of areas are closed off to vehicles due to various events. Seeing it from the air was another way to see those areas like above Kilauea. Also a lot of the nice water falls are inaccessible where we landed to see one up close.
If you had to choose one tour in Kauai, I’d definitely recommend this Blue Hawaiian Tour!!! Barrett did an amazing job maneuvering around the valley, hills and coast to show us the best views of Kauai!!!
