Awesome staff...fun & very informative. Patrone was the best! Thanks guys for the friendly skys!!!
Gardner was a great pilot and very informative. Was out first helicopter ride. Would do tour again!!
I write this review even without sitting in a helicopter. We booked the circle of fire tour, we arrived and check in for the briefing, the staff are so nice and amicable. On the morning of our schedule flight it got rained out. Blue Hawaiian helicopters offered full refund or to try to accommodate in another flight if possible. This is a tremendous service to offer such a refund or alternative if available, that why we have tried for rebooking and hopefully the rain holds off for the next flight. The preflight safety video has closed captioning for Deaf and Hard of Hearing community members.
Five stars is not enough for this trip!
Absolutely amazing. Highly recommend. My wife and I had a blast and cant wait to do it again. Staff is very kind and our pilot, Barrett, gives an excellent tour of all the beauty that is Hawaii. Thank you so much!!!!
Fantastic. Gardner our pilot was the best.
This was the first time taking a helicopter tour for all 4 of us. Matt showed us a very good time and the views were SPECTACULAR!!!
We did the 7am tour to West Maui with our party of 3 including one quite nervous flyer. We had the perfect pilot for the job- Glenda's calm and soothing voice as she was explaining areas and history really helped calm the nerves. She was adaptable looking for calmer air as coming over the West Maui mountain it was also quite bumpy. We also had rain and a bit of a rainbow. A highlight was definitely the landing - so beautiful and peaceful. The company had lockers to keep your gear in during the flight and a safety briefing and weigh in beforehand. It wasn't cheap but the views were worth it.
I was hesitant to go on a helicopter but this is a must do activity. The scenery is awesome and the music that accompanies the ride is soothing and so serene. I did this ten years ago, not this trip to Hawaii but I am sure the company is still a pleasant experience for all.
We highly recommend taking a helicopter tour your first day on the island. Our pilot, Jason, gave us a thrilling tour of so many beautiful and breathtaking highlights of the island as well as sharing many interesting facts. .
Worth the price of admission. Kris was our pilot with 30 years in the Air Force. Felt totally safe. Very mild turbulence that only lasted a few seconds. Beautiful flight. Comfortable helicopters. Big focus on safety as well. Look nowhere else.
I ave this a 3 rating because the flight itself was spectacular. The problem we had was the video that we received. When I played my video (it was a thumb drive), which came in sections of the flight and not all encompassing, the last portion was corrupted. I called BHH in Kauai (where I flew) and they said they'd ship another one out. I received the second one with someone else's flight. At this point I wasn't upset as accidents happen. I called again and they apologized and said they would send another one. I hadn't received it for two weeks and when I called back again to tell them I had received it, I was told that their records showed it was sent. I told them I did not receive it and could they please send another one. The woman I dealt with at Kauai I believe was the manager and she got an attitude telling me "we don't have to send one out", like she was doing me a favor. She said she'd have to call me back. Well it's been a month and I never got a call back. This was very important to me since memories were made and now I can't see part of those memories. My advice is NOT to buy the thumb drive since obviously there's no guarantee it won't be corrupted when you get home.
Great time
This was by far my favorite thing that we did when visiting Hawaii and we did a lot! Our pilot, Shane, was warm and welcoming with a good sense of humor to boot. He had a whole soundtrack that perfectly choreographed our flight as we viewed the Kohala coast which is just spectacular. My heart soared as we flew close to the cliffs and waterfalls and I even got teary-eyed from it all. I loved it so much I booked a flight for my folks later in the week and they also were gobsmacked... definitely a To Do if you're visiting! :)
wonderful
