What an amazing time!
Big Island - Waikoloa

Going up in a helicopter has been on my bucket list for a while. I was finally convinced to go on one by Blue Hawaiian. All I can say is "WOW!" It felt like you weren't even moving, the ride is so smooth. All the while you are listening to great music, choreographed to the areas you are flying over. We say active volcano lava, farms. valleys, so much. I couldn't stop smiling!

Julie our pilot was awesome
Oahu - Honolulu

We took the 45 minute round island tour and weren't disappointed - the pre flight briefing and boarding was really professional and reassuring Julie our pilot was very professional and knowledgeable on the geography and history with great tv and movie links Well worth the $$$

Very fun
Oahu - Honolulu

What a fascinating way to see the island. Very expensive but worth it. They weigh you to put you evenly on plan. My son and mom weighed close. I asked them to switch because wanted to take pictures of both my husband and sons in back. The pilot was rude and I asked again and finally they allowed it. If I am paying $1,000 for party of five should be made aware of seating before last minute. I am very happy I was persistent because got great pictures by turning around at them. The helicopter was super to see the whole island. Its the best way to see Arizona. They take your picture before and you can buy it when you return. It turned out great so I bought it. I also got tshirts would highly recommend to remember day by. You can purchase video but too pricey. Wish they sold Christmas ornaments. Small gift shop. Costumer service was lacking even tour bus driver was rude. I was told to wait inside and she was waiting for us outside. The male bus driver was nice he picked us up but different driver on way back. Wear dark colors for best picture taking.

Flying High ?
Oahu - Honolulu

Worth every penny and the fly over gave us a fantastic view of the island and it's topography. Our pilot Christy was not only awesome but had a lot of knowledge about the island. Take your cameras for fantastic photos. We were hoping to get a video of our flight but unfortunately the on board cameras were out of service on our flight.

Fantastic! (But beware: not all seats are equal...)
Big Island - Waikoloa

We took the full two hour tour with first the lava, then a stop at Hilo, then the north-east coast. It cost *a lot* at around $570 per person, but was worth it! One gripe though: not all seats are equally good, and you're placed effectively at random (a weight distribution thing). The front two seats are probably the best. The back has four seats, and a middle seat is jyst fine if your partner is next to you at the window. However, for the Waipeoa valley / north-east coast bit, the back-right two seats alltogether are a bit lackluster, cause all the fun is on the left side of the aircraft. It's only that (small) gripe that made me give 4 out of 5 stars. Apart from that a great experience.

Great way to see Oahu in one day stay over!
Oahu - Honolulu

We had one day in Honolulu, so we decided to try out the Helicopter tour. Very professional company with state of the art helicopters. Our pilot, Jeannette was great. We flew the entire island in 45 minutes and got a all new perspective on things we had never seen. We now want to go back and go to everywhere we saw by helicopter. Great fun!

Gorgeous views
Oahu - Honolulu

My brother and I took this tour and absolutely loved it! You see almost the entire island and even places you're not allowed to see on land (Sacred Falls). Our pilot, Chris, was awesome and gave us a great tour, pointing out film locations and telling us trivia facts (who knew it takes 2 years to grow a pineapple?). This is a wonderful way to see the island!

The best experience possible! A must if you are visiting Kauai!
Kauai - Lihue

This was hands down the best experience my husband, son and I have ever done on vacation! I was nervous about flying in a helicopter and once we were up in the air I completely forgot about being nervous! I even got to sit in the front. The scenery that you fly over is breathtaking! Like something you have never seen anywhere else in the world! Just when you thought one area was gorgeous you would fly over another area that was just as pretty. And our pilot provided a great background on what we were looking at the entire time. He included all of us and made all the passengers feel so comfortable. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the entire island and he made the trip even more interesting than it already was. He made us feel like we were his only passengers the entire day! He made it very special and went above and beyond to make the entire trip memorable! Hands down worth the money! Blue Hawaiian is the only way to go!!

Best way to see the island - worth the price.
Kauai - Lihue

Our pilot was Scott, ex-Blackhawk military pilot, very experienced, felt very safe. Went way beyond the tour book basics, told us a lot of history and geology of the island. We had a good day and got to fly into Mt Wai'ale'ale Crater which is inaccessible 70% of the year. Very highly recommend this tour.

Start with this view!
Kauai - Lihue

This was our second trip with Blue Hawaiian (adults only 3 years ago.) Our family of five was AWESTRUCK with the beauty of this island. The tour is a spectacular LIFE CHANGING way to see the island and really helps you to get oriented early in your vacation. So great! Definitely worth the money!

Highlight of Kauai!
Kauai - Lihue

Went on a helicopter tour 3 days ago with Brian, had a beautiful ride. I was a little nervous as it was my first helicopter ride, but Brian was a confident pilot and I felt comfortable in no time. We saw too many amazing waterfalls to even count, the Na Poli coastline was incredible. I highly recommend this as an option for people who are short on time. This was a stop on a cruise and we were only in Kauai for a day and a half. Got to see more of the island than we ever could have if we were driving and had many more days to explore the island. Truly a highlight of my trip. Thank you, Brian, and I won't be afraid to try another helicopter ride sometime.

Nice tour to get a first taste of the lava
Big Island - Waikoloa

We have done the Circle of Fire plus Waterfalls tour which lasted about 45 minutes. On-site staff and pilot were very professional. We experienced a smooth and informative flight. Eco Star helicopter is a good choice because of space and window considerations. Nevertheless, we would not do the tour again. While you get some nice aerial overviews of a volcano crater you only can see little lava flows into the sea due to flying altitude (lava flow boat tour recommended instead). The waterfall part is rather short and you will not see any of the high waterfalls of the island. This may is better in another longer flight. In addition it is highly recommended to wear dark clothes as advised by Blue Hawaiian. Bright colours or skin mirrors in the windows.

Amazing views!!!
Oahu - Honolulu

This was my 30th wedding anniversary gift to my husband who always wanted to get on a helicopter, but he never imagined I surprised him with a flight over beautiful Waikiki and beyond. The island is beautiful from above and Julie our pilot was wonderful describing all the areas and history of the place. To topped off we were given the front seats next to Julie to make our day even more special to enjoy those amazing views.

Best way to see Kauai
Kauai - Lihue

We took a wonderful tour of the island. Our pilot, Brady, was very friendly and knowledgeable. He took us right up close to the prettiest and most interesting sites. The helicopter was comfortable and provided good viewing for entire group of 6.
