This was the first time we had ridden in a helicopter, so we didn't know what to expect. It turned out to be a great experience! We were asked to arrive 45 minutes before our scheduled flight to allow time for a detailed briefing on safety topics and what to expect from boarding through the trip and when we got off. Our pilot was Kristi, and she did a fantastic job of explaining the sights. It was very obvious that she loves her job and has a passion for Hawaii in general and Oahu in particular! While we were on the trip, we saw locations that we decided to drive to and visit later in our stay on the island.

Wow am I glad we took the 2 hour helicopter ride to the volcano. It was a truly amazing way to see the island! Our tour guide was AWESOME too. Can't say enough good things about our experience.

Carl was a our pilot,great job. Carl was from Tennessee so were we! Excellent overview of the Island history. Breathtaking views. This was the highlight of our 12 day island hop. Lava views from 2 active volcanoes.

Amazing! Was an incredible way to explore the island of Oahu.

We traveled with David. He gave us a great trip with plenty of narrative but not too much. Overall a wonderful experience.

Beautiful way to view the island. Great tour. Mark our pilot was wonderful.

This is a must do!! We got to see nearly the entire island and our pilot Eric was very knowledgeable about the island and gave us many tidbits of history. We got to see the active volcano and the lave shooting into the ocean which was amazing! Once we got in the side where Hilo is we saw 14 Humpback whales which was a record Eric said as it's rare to see more than 1 or 2 if you see any at all. You can also purchase a DVD of your trip as well which we did. Would definitely do it again!!

This was my first time on a helicopter and it certainly did not disappoint! We were first treated to the sight of a fleet of helicopters landing (from the previous group) and it was amazing! Then we were grouped, and escorted to our helicopters. You'll be asked to weigh yourself, and someone will allocate seats to you, probably to balance out the weight on the helicopter. There are 2 rows, and 6 people in each helicopter, with the pilot in front on the left. I sat in the 2nd row next to the window and the view was breathtaking. Everything was absolutely gorgeous. Waterfalls, valleys, oceans, natural gas, volcanoes, you name it! We even saw whales which was a bonus!!! The pilot Greg was so nice and he engaged all of us in conversation. His manoeuvring skills in the air were so good, but I got a bit nauseous, so don't eat a big breakfast in the morning and take the relevant pills before you go on! They do have throw up bags on board. The after service was also great. Your flight will be recorded with sound included, and we bought one, and they shipped it all the way to us in Singapore. It's a once in a lifetime experience and I definitely recommend Blue Hawaiian. Pack light as lockers will be provided to store all your belongings. And wear DARK COLOURED clothes, so that when you're taking pictures out of the helicopter, the reflection wouldn't be so bad.

Great Pilot and Beautiful Sights

Eli was a super perfect pilot, considering the passengers request and had great comments on during the flight, I really enjoyed that ride very much, Awesome

Great flight! Thank you Brian. We especially loved the crater and all the beautiful waterfalls.

awesome

David was an AWESOME pilot!! Thank you so much for such an amazing way to end our vacation! Best thing we have experienced here in Hawaii. We LOVED every minute of it!!! ~Mahalo!! Mel, Libby, and Morgan

No better way to get a sense of scale than from the birds eye-view. Great moment over the lava flow and the crater. Fantastic and would recommend to anyone visiting the Islands.

Nice trip. Interesting to see island from the sky and the lava flow.
