Have done several helicopter flights around the world and heard good things about this tour. Its true the circle of fire no longer exists so they need to change the name. We were staying it the volcanoes national park so it was good to put everything into context The weather was borderline so it was hard to get a full panoramic view of the area What would have been really helpful would have been to have a map of our route and the expected sites My naive thought was that we would fly over the volcano national park and the famous big falls in Hilo In fact you do neither ; I had learnt from our ground guide the day before that they were not allowed to fly over the Puna area to see the 2018 Lava due to residents objection from the previous year’s numerous helicopters. The highlight was to fly over the P’oo’uu’o crater with its steam in the edge of the park and go inside one of the larger craters. (dip inside with helicopter) The waterfalls were pretty but I thought the small falls we saw were a prelude to us seeing the larger ones and they apparently were never in the agenda and suddenly the tour was over All said, the pilot was great and the flight was fun snd the ground staff friendly and despite my practical points think its a good tour
assume must do if your visiting the island.
Fantastic tour with excellent commentary from our pilot Rick, who went above and beyond to give us a really amazing experience. Highly recommended. Thank you Rick!!
Miguel was an awesome guide, very sociable and funny. Highly recommend if you're visiting Oahu for the first time.
Spectacular views and awesome crew! Highly recommended!
PERFECT TOUR.
Glenda was an amazing pilot!
nice ride
Most excellent Thank you
The ride was amazing, however the customer service was not very good. I scheduled and paid for my ride and less than 15 minutes before pick up my ride was cancelled for no reason. I suspect a larger group came through and they wanted my seat for someone else. I did not get the hour ride, I paid for, but I was offered a ride with less time and a partial refund. Because of the rescheduling I missed another activity I paid for in advance. My reply to the response below: The rep informed me the change was due to, "an unforeseen issue." I specifically asked if the change was due to weather, because the weather was perfect, and she stated, "No." I am coming back to Hawaii, with a friend, and I would go on your helicopter ride again. The views of the "Haiku Ladder" also called, "The Stairway to Heaven." was amazing.
