Great flight! Pilot Brandon gave us an excellent tour of the island. So lucky that the weather was perfect and we could see Sacred Falls. Mahalo!
Amazing! I was impressed with every aspect of the tour from the reception staff to the safety video but the pilot and tour were especially awe inspiring.
Brian was amazing! I was so nervous since it was my first helicopter ride, but he flew so smoothly and was very calming. I felt very safe and we all had an amazing time. Thanks Brian!!! You were personable and professional!
Was just amazing. Lots of inside information from the pilot. Very funny as well. Would definitely recommend it.
Brandon was an awesome guide! Gave us beautiful shots.
Brian provided an awesome experience! A definite must do.
Amazing views of Hawaii from the air. Was an effective and efficient way to see many the different 'regions' of the island in an efficient manner. It was expensive but with the Hola Hola card you do get a discount. The Helicopter was quite comfortable - they broke the trip up by stopping for fuel on the Hilo side which was nice. You are able to get up close to some of lava flows and the valley's on the Hilo side that you would otherwise have no way to see. Chase was our pilot and he was very attentive, engaging and knowledgeable. He was careful to move the helicopter into position so all sides could see and even circled around when someone asked a question about something we passed. I think kids could handle the experience.
Brilliant experience, magnificent scenery, hospitality was fantastic from out pilot, Brandon. Must do whilst in Hawaii on any of the islands to capture the entire landscape and completely take in the stunning scenery!
One of the best things we did ,while in Hawaii, smooth fight and great pilot (Josh).This was a very well managed company, that did a great job on our tour.The views of the volcano and lava were spectacular and the pilot was very informative, I highly recommend this company.
The helicopter is for my husband but I can admit I enjoyed it too. The trip was piloted by Brant -retired army -made me feel safer. The view over the lava was great to video. Grant then headed toward the coast to see the spot where the lava enters the water from lava tubes. Mostly steam with occasional peeks of lava from the helicopter. The waterfalls were pretty but not as dramatic as ground views can be. Good way to see the volcano and the lava from air for lava freaks like my husband.
Incredible. Drove the Road to Hana and then took the helicopter back. Hugo, our pilot was amazing. Views were breathtaking. Everything was 5 stars!!!!
My girlfriend and I decided to take this tour while visiting the big island. We drove an hour and a half from Waikoloa. The check-in desk is at terminal 2 of Hilo International Airport and has public parking across the street which cost us $7 to park (credit & cash). The check-in process was quick. There is a short training video and then you walk outside to the tarmac where we waited for about 15 minutes. Luckily they had umbrellas to block the sun. Our flight was great and we saw the volcano, coast line, and waterfalls. It got a lil queezy over the volcano with all the maneuvers. It was a good thing we took Dramamine beforehand. It gets a little warm in the aircraft so be sure to dress appropriately. All in all, it was a great experience for both of us on our first helo ride!!
Great tour, great pilot, great information & great music!
The lava was my favorite part over all. Especially seeing it in the ocean. I would definitely go again!
Great tour. Our tour guide, Brandt, was very knowledgeable and a touch funny, which was nice. We never felt as if we were in danger or out of control. Great stuff!
