Well worth the money and would definitely do it again. Incredible views flying over the island for a full hour tour. Our pilot Julie was a fantastic narrator of all the sights below. Helicopter was modern and quiet. Gorgeous blue ocean water, over Diamond Head to the North Shore and over Pearl Harbor just to name a few. Flying so close to the water fall was breath taking.

It had it all! Greg our pilot was a wonderful host. He has a very good knowledge of the Island. Very smooth. We had amazing views of red bubbling lava in the cones! Incredible! Burning forests, incredible waterfalls! The family loved it! Worth the expense.

My wife and I took this tour at the beginning of our honeymoon and it was a fantastic way to see the whole island to get oriented and help us refine our plans for the rest of the week. The ride was very gentle and our pilot Scott was a great tour guide, pointing out features of the island and where various movies were filmed. We talked about this tour all week and it's definitely one of the highlights of the trip.

We took the tour this morning and the whole trip was breathtaking. The helicopter ride was so much fun and the scenery was very impressive. It was a great way to see Kauai from above, but still close enough to appreciate its details. Our pilot and guide, Bennett, was friendly, fun and very knowledgeable. I can recommend this experience wholeheartedly.

I have been on all of the Blue hawaiian tours, all of the islands over the past 14 years. Kauai is my favorite, it has the very finest in gorgeous scenery. Their staff are excellent and their helicopters are the most comfortable and quiet.

Miguel was our pilot. He was friendly and gave a informative, interesting commentary and included all passengers. Awesome.

Absolutely AMAZING tour. The views, the scenery were awesome. We have been on numerous helicopter tours and this one was by far the best for scenery, comfort. And not a bad place anywhere on the chopper to see the spectacular sites. Pilots were very knowledgeable and friendly. Well worth the money. Breathtaking

Sacred Falls, the coral, the scenery, the commentary, the flight, the helicopter, the pilot - the whole experience is amazing and very worthwhile. Would have no hesitation in recommending this to everyone and would take the opportunity to fly with this tour operator where ever they were.

Love love love this adventure. Our pilot was entertaining and informative. The ride was beautify and breathtaking. We took two little ones ages 9 and 4. They loved it but slept through some of it. Still worth it. Amazing and will do it again on the next visit. Highly recommend.

My 10 year-old son and I splurged with the Big Island Spectacular. Our pilot was Eli. What an incredible journey! The flight was smooth, comfortable, and quiet the whole way. Eli was a great tour guide, pointing out all the interesting facts about what we were seeing along the way. This excursion takes you from Waikoloa, south and east between Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa, then over Mauna Loa en route to Kilauea. We had a good view of the orange lava in the caldera, and were lucky to see some lava flow over the ground nearby. Next we flew into Hilo for a brief fuel stop before heading north, up the eastern coast. The view of the shear cliffs on the Kohala coast was spectacular, breathtaking. The highlight is definitely the flight into the valley to see, up close (!), many 1,500+ ft waterfalls. From there we headed west, then southwest over the gorgeous ranch land of the northern part of the island. There you have a great view of the western coast and Kona region. No doubt this is an expensive excursion, but completely worth it. I have never flown in another helicopter, but couldn't have been happier with the Eco Star aircraft. The Blue Hawaiian operation was very pleasant, very professional.

Absolutely a must if you come to Kaua'i - the scenery and experience is one of the very best in my whole travels. We were blessed with almost perfect weather and the final entry into the crater of Mount Waialeale was stunning. Seat allocation is calculated but even if you get one of the two 'internal' seats it would still be so worthwhile.

Others told us this was the highlight of their Pride Of America cruise - and a few said it was a MUST DO. Have to agree. One of the best tours I have ever done. From the start this was a very professional setup - knowledgeable staff, very safe and a great view from every seat. I could go on forever about the spectacular views - saw a couple of whales too. I was a bit concerned after reading some reviews about poor seating at the back or feeling rough riding - nothing like that - I was at the back in the middle and I had a great view. Our pilot gave both side of the aircraft good views by switching sides. My tip is to go as early as possible before the clouds roll in. All over a 10/10 tour!!

I am 73 and always dreamed to fly in a helicopter so we booked an "All Island Helicopter Tour" of Kauai, Hawaii and it worked out to be the most thrilling and memorable flight experience of my lifetime. Metaphorically, Captain Scott for me is an angel who carried us thru the skies to real life scenes of God's creations which one gets to see only where Capt Scott knows! I did not believe that we would dive into craters or hang out in mid air in front of a 2400 ft waterfall with the crater walls rising all around us. Not only that the scene was complete with appropriate music through Bose headphones and Scott's lucid commentaries for nearly an hour. Today back at home we viewed the live 1080P recorded video we purchased after the flight and relived the whole experience all over again. Our visit to Kauai would be wasted if not for this 'must fly' tour.

We had the best time on our helicopter tour!! We chose the Big Island Spectacular and it was well worth the money!! Flying over and around the active volcano and lava flow was an incredible thing to see and the waterfalls are breathtaking! Eric was our pilot and he was fantastic! He was so knowledgeable about the island and the volcano. The staff on the ground were great as well. We were actually scheduled a day before but the weather was not good on one part of the island. They gave us a choice of a refund, or to do just one part of the tour, or reschedule for another day (which we chose). One of the most amazing things we've done!

Breathtaking! If you are planning on doing a helicopter trip when visiting any of the islands do it on the Big Island. Not only do you get the lush landscape of rainforests and the dry surface of the moon feel lava flows, you get to see hundreds of waterfalls, epic valley's, and of course, volcanos and lava.
