Great experience. I was a little unsure as this was my first helicopter tour but our pilot Greg was top notch and the tour was excellent. There were 6 of us on the trip but the helicopter used accommodated all of us comfortably.

The views and our tour guide Chelsea was fantastic. Chelsea was very informative and very friendly. In fact all employees were great. Don't miss doing this if you go to Kauai it is worth every penny.

- The entire booking process, check in was very straightforward. - The tour covered almost all aspects of Kauai. - Our pilot (Greg) kept the entire party of 6 very engaged throughout the tour. Greg made the tour lively and entertaining. - It would be good to book this tour earlier during the trip so that you get a chance to see the entire Kauai and then select areas which you want to explore more during the remainder of the trip.

Blue Hawaiian was recommended by a friend of mine as we were deciding what to do for our big excursion while on Hawaii and it was beyond worth it. Toshi was our pilot and besides providing a fantastic flying experience he gave a really insightful educational tour of the Island and its history. We flew on a full flight but the seating was beyond accommodating (I'm 6'2" and very broad chested sitting at the door seat). 50 minutes was the perfect amount of time to get a view of the Island that tourists do not have access to, and was blown away from start to finish. Courteous, professional, and funny- highly recommend Blue Hawaiian Tours

The helicopter tour is very cool and gives you incredible views of the island. We did the coast tour and the views of the coastline are incredible. Pilot will also take you in between the mountain valleys which is also an incredible experience. The tour lasts about 45 minutes and is definitely worth it. If you’ve ever seen Jurassic Park, the views are essentially equivalent to that. It’s about 75 degrees or so in the helicopter and you will not need a jacket.

Pilot Greg knows the island so well. He took us on a beautiful ride over the pristine northern coast where no roads exist, and to view waterfalls and lava tubes. Even spotted a humpback whale- first of the season. So glad we did not miss this.

Not worth the price tag for the Kohala coast tour. The helicopter tour in Kauai is way better for the same price. The kohala coast tour with Blue Hawaiian covered only bits of Polulu and Waimanu valley. We didn't even go into the valleys much to view the beautiful waterfalls. Wouldnt hurt skipping this tour.

The tour was great. the company was really good. the pilot was knowledgeable. we saw so many water falls that it was amazing!

It's was our 3rd trip to the Big Island. I thought I had seen all major scenic points of the island and decided to check out the Kohala coast. Well... I was in for a surprise that exceeded all my expectations. I first noticed Blue Hawaiian Helicopters advertised at the KOA airport. Of course it looked awesome and you don't always get what is being advertised. I can tell you now that the experience is much above and beyond what any video or image can capture. Experience: Memories that will last you a lifetime! The flight was amazing. The views were unbelievable, so gorgeous. The helicopter, pilot and land crew were all very professional, confident and friendly. When my friends saw the images, they thought it was Kauai... Some tips: When deciding when to go, call up Blue Hawaiian Helicopter Tour to see availability then choose a date when the Kohala coast will be sunny. Get there early, that increases your chance to be able to get the front seats. There are 2 front seats next to the pilot and 4 back seats. Their computer calculates the load balancing (positional seating) of the guests in the copter but they will keep couples together. While I enjoyed the tour from the front seats, the guests on the back row seemed to equally enjoy the trip. The company does sell videos with audio if you'd like to see what their multiple cameras captured during your own flight. You can also take pictures and videos with your own devices if you are happy with those (as I did). At the end of the trip you can quickly look a the quality you recorded and compare to the quality they offer when played back on their monitor. I would certainly go back for more flying with them based on the weather and price of the tour.

I can’t say enough about this tour. It was unbelievable and worth the time and money!! MUST DO. Pilot Greg was the best. Very safety conscious as was the whole team. You can tell they put safety first!

I've been on Blue Hawaiian Helicopters previously and both times they have been excellent experiences. They start you off with a safety video then put you into seats assigned primarily for the best weight distribution. Matt was our pilot. Everyone was very friendly. This location was 5 minutes from our Hilton resort. It helps if you wear black clothing to cut down on the reflections when taking photos through the windows. Depending on the position of the helicopter you may have to wait for the right shots. Matt was very good about moving the aircraft around so everyone could take photos. They make a video of your flight that you can purchase when you get back (for about $60). It's a good memory. Moving your camera (I used my Samsung S10+ for my camera and it worked great) around near the glass to find a good reflection free shot also helps. I found the closer to the glass I held my camera the better. Matt explains a lot to you and you use the hand held microphones to ask questions and communicate with him (and others) when flying. This is a great adventure. I got some good photos which are now hanging on my wall at home. Highly recommended.

It was something to behold! Flying over water, then mountains, then in through the valleys to see numerous waterfalls, it was quite breathtaking to say the least.

Entire staff were fantastic. Professional and courteous. Shane the pilot did a great job of describing the the views, and helping us get the most out of the experience.

We had an amazing experience and would highly recommend this business. All staff is friendly and professional. We definitely felt we were in good hands. Our pilot was knowledgeable, interesting and friendly. He managed to engage my sons (ages 11 an 8) in conversations. Everyone loved the flight, the scenery, and the entire experience.

We weren't necessarily going to do this tour, but some friends recommended and I'm glad they did. The staff was very well prepared, the safety information well-done, and everyone was very friendly. But that's not why you're reading. The tour is absolutely stunning. You start off heading to the east/northeast and see views of lush farmland before approaching deep rainforest valleys, where you go down into places that are extremely difficult to see by land -- watching waterfalls flow from the clouds down a cliffside. Then you come out to the coast and see just how beautiful the Big Island is. Light and dark blue waters, pristine and barely touched beaches and waterfalls running through the cliffs into the ocean below. The ride is extremely smooth and the pilot (Greg) was very knowledgeable, funny, and had the right balance of storytelling and just letting you enjoy the scenery. 100% recommend this if you're on the Big Island.
