This was such an amazing experience. I was so impressed with how professional the setup is. from first looking at their website, to the briefing and of course the amazing aircraft and pilots. I've been working on helicopters for many years, and I can tell you this is a professional outfit. We did the waterfall landing. OMG, just breathtaking. This is the most beautiful part of Big Island and only accessible by helicopter. I highly recommend the it.
This was our second ride on this helicopter (we went on it also in Maui) and it did not disappoint. Our pilot nicknamed GoGo was informative and gave us a smooth ride over the coast cliffs, waterfalls and ocean views. Highly recommend this company to anyone. We were asked to view a safety video first, weighed in for weight distribution and instructed and informed prior to takeoff. Located right off main road highway 19.
My flight with Blue Hawaiian was the highlight of my trip to Kauai. I would have left Kauai with a completely difference perception of the island without having had this experience. My pilot, Geoffrey was amazing. He was extremely professional and made everyone feel at ease. He was wonderful at fielding our many questions. The Eco-star helicopters are very nice as well...great aircraft. The tour is just breathtaking and worth every penny. Would not hesitate to use Blue Hawaiian again!
Our Big Island Spectacular flight in an Eco Star was absolutely the highlight of our trip to Hawaii. Our original flight was cancelled due to the weather but we were promptly rescheduled. It was well worth the wait and Marco our pilot was very professional and informative. We were also picked up from our resort in Kona which was greatly appreciated. Don't look at the price when booking this tour, just do it. You will certainly not regret it.
Blue Hawai'i helicopters were professional and fun and their state of the art eco tour helicopters are fantastic. Views were unbelievable, the volcanoes, waterfalls, scenery and the whole experience is definitely worth the cost. Save your money and book this helicopter tour as its a 'must do' in Hawai'i.
Blue Hawaiian Helicopters was a great experience. They give you a safety briefing before the ride and let you know about the flight. the pilot was great filling in a lot of details about the island and getting all onboard involved in the experience. It is a wonderful way to experience Kauai interior and coastline that you cannot get to by car. The waterfalls were beautiful and the whole trip well worth the money. Helicopter flights are expensive, but if you can it is a once in a lifetime experience. Would highly recommend Blue Hawaiian for their experience. And highly recommend for the adventure.
Had a great time! They put 7 people on at a time but the views are too spectacular to mind :) our pilot was awesome! (Miguel) he made sure we all had a chance to take great pics. Best part of the trip!
On this trip you experience the rain forests, coast, volcanic badlands and Madame Pele's lava and volcano action. Unfortunately even though you pay an additional $115,extra per person to travel in an Eco-star helicopter over the A-Stat modles your view from the two inner rear seats are limited. Despite Blue Hawaiin claiming the rear seating is "raised theatre style" it is practically impossible to get an uninterrupted View of the sites your pilot works hard to show every passenger. These two inner seats are therefore, almost useless if your intention is to film your experience yourself. These inner seats should be cheaper but they are not. You can not choose where you sit ( for good reason as the craft needs to be balance) but, the company and its agents should be more honest about the seating and viewing. Finally you can buy one of there dvd's of the flight but it's not your filming, you have to pay for it and that, is if they don't drag you back to your residence before giving you the opportunity to buy, as was our experience.
We have had a fantastic tour on the A star helicopter. We have seen the active vulcano's with great view, then we went further to Hilo, coast line and a very beautiful view of the valley, waterfalls and all the different climates on the big island. It is not cheap, but worth the money!
if ur coming along way to see hawaii like me then spend the extra money and get a birds eye view of paradise.... Wonderful way to see a magical place, very professional, highly recommend to anyone wanting to see Hawaii :) loved it ,, thanks guys and girls .. mahalo ??✌?
Great flight - pilot was informative and friendly. Fabulous way to see the island and learn about its history. Only wish we had done it earlier in our stay.
High recommend Blue Hawaii Helicopter to see Kauia maintains and the many beautiful water falls. We also use this company on the Big Island too. Not as organized on the Big Island as on Kauia.
What a professional wonderfully run company. From the pick up at the port to the receptionists and magnificant pilot. Shay was a magnificant pilot and gave us a spectacular tour. Aircraft is clean and smooth ride. Tour well worth every dollar spent . As a previous reviewer said Spend the money and go, you won't be disappointed.
We flew with Greg who had great knowledge of the island, as he's lived here the past 28 years, and saw some of the most amazing sights. The Bose noise canceling headphones were also a nice touch, you could barely hear the noise of the helicopter. This was by far the best helicopter experience I've ever had, can't wait to do it again!
My husband and I decided to go on a helicopter ride over Kauai as much of Kauai cannot be seen from the road. The weather was a little cloudy but the pilot was able to fly low enough so that we were able to see dozen of waterfalls. The scenery was spectacular. The company seemed to have safety first in mind which is what you want when flying in a helicopter. The weighting could not be more discrete. Overall enjoyed the ride, but might try the open air version next time.
