Julie did a wonderful job! Great pilot and tour guide!

We had the most breath taking incredible experience today doing the waterfalls. Josh was extremely professional and an outstanding pilot. He made us feel very comfortable and we felt extremely safe. We highly recommend Josh and your company . Thank you for this wonderful experience. Annette Jansz and family

Joshua was an excellent pilot and tour guide of the valleys. Excellent flying that made is easy to take pictures and videos. 5 stars

Thank you for a wonderful flight and tolerating two girls with a clear love of the microphones! As a fearful flyer, this was wonderful and I would gladly do it again and recommend to others. Nga mihi nui (Kind regards) The Calvert Family

Extraordianary experience in every possible way, we got really lucky with the weather and saw everything. Josh is a superb helicopter pilot and guide. There are not enough superlatives to describe this experience

Miguel was our patient pilot! Calm and cool! Blue Hawaiian helicopters are professional under pressure and kept our safety #1! Our original flight was cancelled due to weather. We were able to have the option to reschedule or be fully refunded. We rescheduled for the following morning and we were not disappointed! Safety briefing short and to the point. Easy to follow instructions and helicopter fun to ride! Weather was gorgeous and the sights were beautiful! Highly recommend at least once in your lifetime!

We booked this 2 hour tour through our concierge at the Marriott. It was close to the hotel, and came highly recommended. A bus picked us up at the hotel. Honestly, it was so close, we totally could have driven if it would have saved us money, since this was quite pricey. For 4 of us it cost over $2500. They have you watch a safety video, and are very safety conscious. We were a party of four, put in a helicopter with two other people. They were smokers, so they smelled a little like smoke, which wasn't the best, but not the companies fault. Our pilot was really good, and got us into the air flawlessly. However, he didn't seem to really want to speak unless we asked questions. He had some great music playing when he wasn't speaking, but it seemed like it was just a viewing tour, rather than a narrated tour. He did start off with letting us know that there will be no lava to see. I almost think this should be reiterated and perhaps the tour slightly altered, because honestly, you can only look at black fields of dried lava so long. We had no sense of where we were until we came into Hilo. And, I had no idea we had to stop for fuel in the middle. That would have been something that would have been nice to know ahead of time. We were able to jump off and go to the bathroom at Hilo. But that took a good 20 minutes out of a tour, so not sure if you can actually call it a two hour tour if you have to land and add fuel and take back off. The best part of the tour came after the fuel stop. We went up the coast and saw all the water falls that you can't see from land. We saw a circular rainbow, and went into a gulch and up close to a few amazing water falls. Again, a little more narrative would have been nice; even if it was just little tidbits about Hawaii, or the area. Overall, I wouldn't say it is a must see, as it is very pricey. But it is a good way to check "helicopter ride" off your bucket list.

Wesley was a fantastic pilot and tour guide. He was very informative about the volcanoes and waterfalls, and slso the history of each.

we loved it. highly recomended

We had to go up in a second chopper due to mechanical issues with the first one. Great job Steve for keeping us safe and giving us a great tour!

Steven was a wonderful tour guide. After being grounded for a sensor light, the whole team took great care of us and rescheduled us quickly.

Sarah was awesome - Enjoyed the entire trip

I took a "Maui Spectacular" tour and it was definitely "Spectacular." The helicopter company, "Blue Hawaiian Helicopters," is the largest in Hawaii and used in film makings including Jurassic Park. I woke up quite early to catch my flight from 7:30 for 1.5 hours as it is required to be at the building 45 minutes prior to the flight. You can take only sunglasses, cell phones, and cameras, but no bag is allowed. There are lockers to keep your bags. After 5 minutes of safety instructions, you are equipped with safe gears. Then you are eventually guided to the helicopter. The flight was very expensive, but it was worth every penny. Rainforest, waterfalls, and whale watching from the sky. The most exciting of all for me was to see Jurassic Rock. Until then, I had thought the helicopter arriving scene of the movie, Jurassic Park, was computer-generated. It was not! Unfortunately, we did not make a 20-minute landing on the slopes of Haleakala due to bad weather. Instead, we each got a video recording of the flight in a USB and a bottle of sparkling wine.

Beautiful views wonderful pilot- his name was guy;one complaint, dishonesties at check in, Tammy didn’t feel very trust worthy.

Incredible and worth the money spent.
