This was the best way to see the island! I would recommend doing this first then get a land tour and go back to your favorite places. Loren was a great pilot. My group was very pleased. It was worth the price!

My wife and I did the Big Island Spectacular tour, and it was absolutely incredible. Matt was our pilot and he was awesome! The flight starts by taking you south/southeast towards the volcanoes, then east/northeast toward the Hilo area, then west/northwest toward the Waipi'O valley area, then finally south down the western coast back to the base. We paid extra for the front seats, and also extra for the waterfall landing, and these were absolutely incredible. The area had quite a bit of rain the past couple of days so the waterfall was awe-inspiring. Definitely worth it! The only thing I would say is that the ride is a little pricey - about $1,000 for the tickets, and after we added the waterfall landing and the front seats it was just shy of $2,000. As a first-time visitor to the big island it was DEFINITELY worth it. The price tag is the only reason I probably wouldn't do it again if we go back, but don't let that deter you from doing this at least once if you can afford it, it was incredible! Thanks again Matt!! You were an awesome pilot!

Circle of Fire tour by our pilot Wesley was excellent and money well spent. Spring for the front seat upgrades ($100 per person).

We had Mike S. as our pilot on a windy day with low cloud cover. It got a little bumpy at times but Mike handled it easily and while narrating the scene. He made sure that everyone got a good view and opportunity to get the photos to remember it by.

Our piglet Yoshi was fantastic. The entire staff were on top of everything and very helpful. I will be riding with them again!

We LOVED our helicopter tour on Kaua'i. It was the best thing we did while we were on the island. All of the staff, especially Greg our pilot, were kind, knowledgeable, and told the best stories. They made the experience feel personal and safe. Would recommend this to ANYONE. Can't believe the photos and videos we got on our phone from the helicopter.

Nice experience but tad bit pricey at $340 per person for Molokai island tour. Views are definitely amazing.

Great experience. Booked 2 days before and they were able to accommodate. This tour is slightly expensive than other helicopter rides in area but they do have availability if you don’t have advance booking. Booking procedure was simple and staff was helpful. We did West Maui and Molokai tour and was breathtaking view of Molokai mountains and waterfall. Pilot was very informative and described all the locations very well. Also took pictures at the end of tour! They provide video dvd of your tour at the cost of 60$, which I feel is expensive! They should reduce the cost for dvd. Everything else was great and recommend this tour!

Koji gave us a fantastic tour today. He was a very seasoned flyer and made sure everyone was comfortable. If you have an hour to spare this adventure is well worth it. The waiting areas are also super clean and the office staff was very pleasant and professional. Thank you for a great flight!

My family and I did a helicopter tour here and it was an amazing experience. Our pilot Koji, was a great tour guide and the ride was very smooth. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

The only reason I gave this 4 stars and not 5 is that your experience is totally dependent on your pilot and your seat in the helicopter. Most of the views are on the right side, so if you are seated on the left you get mostly water views. If your pilot is aware of this and does plenty of turns, you may be fine. However, ours only did a few, which limited what we actually could take pictures of.

Great pilots and friendly staff. Highly recommend. They even go out of their way to make sure all sides of the helicopter get a good view or pictures.

Must do item when you come to Hawaii. Well worth the money. Great Staff and Awesome Pilot

I’m sitting here watching the videos from my first helicopter ride ever with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters on Oahu about a month and a half ago, trying to relive how much of an amazing experience this was!! What made it even better was my pilot Loren. If you like a “chill dude” telling you about all the amazing sights you’ll see, and like to laugh, he’s your pilot too! It was amazing from the second we lifted even an inch off the ground! If I ever go back to another beautiful island, this will always be a must!

Absolutely incredible experience. Was a little pricey, but definitely worth it. If you have an extra $100, would splurge for one of the two front row seats next fo the pilot. The back row has four seats but is not cramped at all. I was in one of the middle back row seats and still had a great view, so if you don’t get a front row seat - it’s still amazing! Our pilot, Barrett was very knowledgeable about the island (he was born & raised on Kauai) & made sure to rotate the helicopter near big views (aka the Jurassic park waterfall) so that all seats could see perfectly. I had never ridden in a helicopter before & will admit I was a bit nervous but the entire staff was very professional & Barrett was a perfect pilot. I felt entirely safe the whole time. Couldn’t speak more highly of Blue Hawaiian Tours - absolutely recommend!
