I booked helicopter rides for 7 with blue Hawaiian in July 2017 coming from the cruise ship in HILO, BIG Island and Kaui, Hawaii In HILO, we were put on two different helicopters with party of 4 and party of 3. I requested to accommodate us all on one helicopter to ride together and Blue Hawaiian was able to accommodate us after the availability / cancellation of other bookings We took the Ecostar as it is bigger and more comfortable helicopter and we also had a friend who had never been on helicopter and was afraid to go on it. A bit more expensive but well worth it. Our Pilot was very good, humorous, very knowledgeable and fun to interact with. We had 5, 10 and 12 year old kids with us and they asked a lot of Qs and our Pilot was very good in interacting with kids and our whole party. We flew over HILO town, macadamia nut orchards, Kiluaea and saw lava from the mouth of volcano (what a site and life time experience), lava spewing out of the lava tubes in open and lava meeting the ocean. We flew over rainbow falls and several other waterfalls and Wailuku river state park. This was most definitely the highlight of our trip to BIG Island In Kauai, we were on two separate helicopters as helicopters there can only accommodate 6 passengers. Unfortunately, weather turned as soon as we took off. Our helicopter Pilot learned about the bad weather and keeping safety of the passengers in mind he returned us to base and we were refunded our money immediately. Our other party of 3 took off before us and had already passed when the bad weather moved in. They were on the helicopter with their most experienced pilot and pilot figured out a way to go around the weather and instead of going clockwise, he went counter clockwise and completed the tour for them safely. Another testament to the professionalism and safety first attitude. We loved our time spent with Blue Hawaiian and will recommend them and use their services again and look forward to going back to Kauai and retaking that helicopter ride

Chopa chopa chopa. Got the back seat but was still visible for the most part. Still paid full price. Overall it was awesome; our pilot was informative and funny with his little "here we are about to experience a little wiggle" comment. Dope ride except the retard in the front of us wore a white tshirt which reflects from the glass ruining some of our photos. O well, Aloha.

Greg was our pilot and gave us a very smooth ride and also provided a great amount of information on the areas that we viewed. Well worth the money and the entire experience was recorded (which we purchased). I highly recommend this tour!!

Brodi was absolutely amazing. He had great depth in his knowledge in the island and showed us how to respect and truly appreciate the land we are blessed with. Thank you Brodi.

Thanks so much to Blue Hawaiian! We saw a lot of the island (by land and sea) before the tour, but nothing compares to the view from the air-absolutely stunning! Our pilot Brian was excellent and made the experience very personal and provided a ton of history about the island. An absolute must!

Brian (Flyin Brian) made our experience absolutely amazing! We are here on our honeymoon and this was by far the best experience we could have asked for! We loved how he made it personal and told us his own story. Thank you so much for such an unforgettable time!!

Tour with Brian. Very impressive, and personal tour. Brian is passionate and a perfect pilot. One suggestion is to go through the Crater two times since that was the best part.

Brody was an excellent pilot and very thoughtful in all the details, down to remembering all of our names throughout the tour, the playlist, and personal anecdotes he shared with us during our tour. We appreciated his depth of knowledge about Kaua'i and his passion for sharing it with others. Thank you Brody for an amazing experience of your favorite island home!

Greg was an amazing pilot and was very detailed throughout the flight. It's a must do adventure!!!

We had a great time! Jason, our pilot, was amazing and the music he played was perfectly timed. Well worth the time and money. We were not nauseous or scared for one minute! Thank Jason!

Thank you very much for this great experience. It was our first Helicopter trip but not the last one!!
