Staff was very friendly. The pilot was knowledgeable and was willing to go the extra mile to make sure we were all happy and got photos of what we wanted. The family and I will be coming back next time we come to Kona.
Really great company. Pilots couldn’t be more friendly and knowledgeable. I have no ideal how many times a day they do the same route, but they make sure you feel like you were their only passengers that day. Seating has to go by weight, which is just a part of being on a helicopter, (and they are discrete about it), so you may not get to sit up front but you will get a good view from any seat. Make sure and not carry much with you as you are limited to what you can carry on to things such as a bottle of water, cell phone ( in flight mode), camera (without case).... and no bags, or food at all, they do have lockers, but space could be limited. Flash drive videos are available for purchase after you land. They have cameras inside and outside and really do a nice job of editing it all together.
Tamara our pilot was fantastic along with the music she has chosen. Very informative.
The ride was amazing! Breathtaking views. The pilot was very friendly and informative. Made the ride super smooth and comfortable. Definitely will recommend and will come back as soon as we can! THANK YOU BRODY!!!!!
Brody was the most knowledgeable guide we have ever had. You can feel the passion in his words and made us feel very honored to be passengers aboard his helicopter.
It was amazing!!! Contemplating lava boat ride or helicopter to go see the lava flows. I am scared to fly, but heard that 80% of the lava boat get sea sick and the hotel did not recommend doing the boat. They recommend Blue Hawaiian. Jeremy was great!! The helicopter was a smooth ride and less scary then an airplane. The view that Jeremy showed us of the lava was amazing. We saw the 280 ft fissure flow and the river of the lava into the ocean. Could not believe how close we got and how good our view was. He worked hard to get us to see the lava between the plums of smoke. If your questioning, just do it. I would do it again in a heart beat.
It was an incredible experience!!!! Our pilot Tamara was awesome! she was very knowledgeable and made the experience even better.
Ethan did an excellent job of showing us the current eruption at Lelani Estates and the river of lava flowing into the ocean at Kapoho. The 50 minute tour changed our perspective on the natural history of the island and the diverse landscape. Thank-you!
Our pilot was awesome! It was a once in a lifetime experience. We highly recommend Blue Hawaiian.
Breath-taking. Stunning. This helicopter tour has been the highlight of my trip so far. I'm almost at a loss for words because of how beautiful the island of Kauai is and how fantastic our tour was. Brody (Brodie sp?) was our pilot and made the tour what it was. The flight still would have been stunning without any commentary because of the natural beauty of the island, but the stories Brody told us brought the island to life. I'm not exaggerating when I say that Brody welcomed us with so much warmth and brought a new understanding of the island to my heart. I literally had a tear in my eye when he was sharing some of his stories! I want to give a personal thank you to Brody for his kindness and fantastic knowledge of the island. Hearing the tour from someone who grew up on Kauai was a privilege that I will soon not forget. Thank you for your hospitality, thank you for your aloha, and mahalo to you, my friend. I truly will think of Kauai when I'm having a bad day at home and remembering it will definitely bring a smile to my face.
The best way to experience the garden isle is with a helicopter tour and the best helicopter tour is Blue Hawaiian. What an amazing experience from start to finish the pilot was providing information and guiding you through the entire island. We had Marty who has been flying for 20+ years. This was our first experience in a helicopter of any sort and it is completely different than a plane. Takeoff and landing are super smooth and it honestly feels like a giant bubble that you are floating in. Highly recommend it for anyone interested in seeing the entire island.
It was a great ride. Our pilot was awesome and the staff was very nice. The view of the island was great. We would definitely recommend to family and friends who come too Hawaii
Ryan was such a wonderful pilot and tour guide. He showed us many spectacular sights and even shared with us his favorites. We got to see the crater which was an awesome sight with the clouds dropped so low on the mountains. We had a group of 6 and I would recommend this activity!! It was one of the many highlights of my trip! Thank you, Ryan!!
I expected it to be cool but this was way better than I could have imagined! I fell more in love with this Island!! Ryan (Pilot) your the man! Thanks for the knowledge and making it obvious you love what you do!! As it should be!
Excellent way to see the island...and the recent volcanic activity! Jason was an excellent pilot.
