Ask for Rick he shares his knowledge of the island and adds a bit of humor you learn history you see the beauty of the island that you cannot see by car nor boat Rick is steady and yet he show the t island he loves and offers knowledge it is a great way to see the island and well worth the investment
I attended a full island helicopter tour last week, and it was probably the best experience I have had on the island. Rick our pilot was phenomenal, not only from a flying standpoint, but his information and knowledge of the island was spectacular. I would highly recommend this company and please request Rick as your pilot!
Yet another maximum score for this company. They are very professional in their introductory safety talks, their equipment used and the way the personnel escort you to the help. They make sure you are comfortable, check your safety harness and do so in an unhurried manner. The pilot knows his stuff and gives you the best view on both sides of the craft. Highly recommended.
Took the 50 minute Maui/Molokai tour. Perfect weather conditions with light winds. A very smooth ride. Loved flying up into the valleys to see waterfalls and the steep volcanic cliffs on the coast. The music played during the flight added to the experience. Jeramy our pilot gave an informative description of what we were seeing but provided time for us to take in the awesome view below us. All staff were very friendly and professional. All steps of the flight were on schedule from the greeting on arrival, safety instruction, boarding, flight and post flight viewing of our flight video Purchased an actual video of our tour ( you are seen in the cabin). Pricey experience but an experience you won't forget!!
As the cherry on top for our trip my husband and daughter LOVED MORE THAN WORDS their experience. They had the 2 seats up front with the pilot (Tim - who was wonderful and INCREDIBLY knowledgeable) and couldn't get over the incredible views of everything they saw. Main crater was cloudy so they weren't able to see it (major bummer - but it happens) - however, Tim made up for it showing them EVERYTHING else. Was highlight of our entire trip for the two of them.
This was the highlight of our family vacation. We were blessed to have Gernot as our pilot. The ride was not just smooth and pleasant; but he was also thoughtful in making sure that everyone on the flight had a chance to look at the same things. From wale sighting to amazing cliffs and waterfalls this was completely amazing! We will be back❣
AWESOME, We loved our pilot Dean who was an EXcellent Pilot, explaining everything in great detail! We had the best time and enjoyed every minute, Dean made it fantastic!
We booked our Blue Hawaiian tour through the conceirge at the Kaanapali hotel we stayed at over Christmas. We knew pricing of the helicopter tours offered through Costco/air Maui and this about same. The conceirge suggested Blue Hawaiian so we went this route. What a fabulous adventure for my family! We chose the northern Maui/Molakai trip and we had Captain Tim as our pilot. We had the most wonderful trip, and saw and learned so much from our pilot. We scheduled our helicopter tour on our last day in Maui so we would be near the airport and it wound up saving the best for last.
We did the compete island tour and it was incredible. Great staff and pilot. Was a bit rainy and overcast but that didn't impact the views or the experience!
Our flight was choreographed to the perfect soundtrack selected by our pilot Rick including serene waterfall adventure and a quick cliff dive. The views were breathtaking and the 50-minute tour was the perfect amount of time.
Was probably the best part of our whole trip!!! The views are amazing, and you get to see a lot of the island that you wouldn't see otherwise. Highly recommend.
Blue Hawaiian has a fantastic way to see the island. My wife and I never had been on a Helicopter before. The pilot took us up so carefully and pleasantly, you felt like you were floating. Words cannot describe how beautiful Maui is. The pilot took us over areas that are tremendously difficult to see otherwise. What an enjoyable ride.
Overall our experience was top notch. The booking process, check in, waiting room were all top notch. I shopped online for a heli tour and ended up chatting with someone from Blue Hawaiian who was outstanding. She looked after our needs and booked a great trip for us. She deserves a raise! Booked it Dec 31 for Jan 3rd 2016. The pilots were excellent as was the trip. Highly recommend this trip.
Would totally recommend Blue Hawaiian! Everyone we met was nice, helpful, knowledgeable and put us at ease (as none of us had even flown in a helicopter before). Our pilot, Ryan, was truly awesome! We were wowed by the amazing views and the stories of ancient Hawaii!
Justin was our pilot and guide. Request him if possible. Answered all our questions and filled us in on the sights as we flew and hovered. Fantastic way to see the islands.
