Pilot Kristi was just great including us all in the conversations. Great knowledge of island The views from helicopter especially of the valleys and waikiki were amazing Good vis from chopper Overall a great way to see island in a short time

Although I don't usually do reviews, the Blue Hawaiian Oahu tour demands an exception. From start to finish the experience was first rate and exceeded our expectations. Our pilot Julie maneuvered the Ecostar to make sure that all aboard had great views of the spectacular island scenery. In addition, she provided historical details and pointed out sights that we might have missed without her narration. The helicopter allows views and perspective of the island that circle island road trips cannot provide. In addition, you see remote valleys, waterfalls and seashore vistas that even most locals have never seen. Our tour took place on a day that the island was experiencing various weather events ranging from bright sunshine in Waikiki to rainbow enhanced showers in the inland valleys. From Waikiki's beaches to the north shore and central island pineapple plantations you'll experience Oahu in a whole new way. All that and free shuttle from Waikiki beach hotels. Worth every penny and highly recommended.

We LOVED our tour of Oahu with Pilot Kristi! She joked with our 8 & 4 year old and made them feel at ease. Seeing Oahu from above is incredible! And Kristi made the trip that much better! Blue Hawaii helicopter tour is a MUST DO!

Amazing trip with outstanding pilot named Toshi. Toshi provides a ton of information about what you see and keeps you laughing. The views are unbelievable from above. Amazing view of the lava especially as it flows into the ocean. You have to see the waterfalls in person to understand how beautiful they are as words won't do them justice. The price for the tour seems too high until you experience the trip. Well worth every penny. If on the big Island this is a must excursion.

I was really impressed with our pilot, Wesley. Not only was he entertaining and full of information but he was very skilled with that helicopter. It was cloudy and not a great day for sight seeing but he managed to get us some really good views of the volcano crater and the lava flowing into the ocean.

We booked a trip with Blue Hawaiian in advance of our vacation. Everything was very easy to find at the airport. Our pilot, Wesley, was knowledgeable about everything he was showing us, and did a great job trying to engage everyone on our trip in conversation. Unfortunately, most people didn't speak fluent English, so we had the added benefit of lots of conversation with him! We saw the crops being grown on the island, we saw a lot of the volcanoes and some open lava, and then we circled over some waterfalls before circling over the coast to see if we could see any whales in the area. We would definitely do the Circle of Fire tour, or another one, again.

We did the Blue Hawaiian helicopter tour as part of our Kapokohine package but I still wanted to give a big shoutout to our fabulous helicopter company, Blue Hawaiian. What a professional and safe ride we received from our Captain, Tim. We felt so safe in his capable hands. We saw the erupting volcano and where the magma flows into the ocean. We saw the island from a fun and exhilarating vantage point. All was well organized and on time. We highly recommend this company and this tour!

Our pilot was very personable and knowledgable. Great views of hidden waterfalls and the volcano. Felt safe and relaxed, especially for first flyers. Organized, punctual and professional. Good value and a "must do" at least once for the experience.

We did a 2 hour tour with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters yesterday and had a fantastic time! Our pilot, Shane, really made the trip extra special. He was very knowledgeable about the area, tried really hard to make sure we had good views of the lava activity and his DJ skills brought our tour to a whole new level. He had music to fit every mood, we took off to a James Bond theme song, had pulse pumping music over the lava and soothing music through the waterfalls in the valley. Blue Hawaiian uses Bose noise cancelling headphones so you don't hear the noise of the chopper blades at all - a huge plus. We were lucky enough to be able to fly up and see the snow up close on Mauna Kea but our kids (11&14) didn't feel very well at the higher elevation, they felt a lot better when we went down a few thousand feet. A great way to see the diversity of the big island!

This was a spectacular experience. Our pilot Kristy was lovely, very professional without being dull. If you get the chance do it.

We had a fantastic tour on the blue Hawaiian helicopter. A bit of confusion with the scheduling and check in process, but the tour was amazing! Our pilot was Kristie. She was so very much fun and very informative. Made us feel very comfortable since this was our first helicopter ride. We had great clear weather and we're able to see everything.

This would have to be one of the best things I have ever done. I was so scared at the start but the pilot was so calm and professional that I soon forgot about it within seconds of being up in the air. the scenery was breathtaking and with the music playing in our headsets it was like an out of thesuingcthe music

Awesome! We went on our last day and it was a fantastic way to finish our holiday. Our pilot Kristi was great, making sure both sides of the chopper got the views. I couldn't recommend it highly enough!

We are very lucky to see lava going to ocean! When lava hit the ocean, it generated a very thick steam. We were lucky the wind was blowing the thick steam away from the lava. We saw more than 20 red, glowing lava flowing into ocean. What a view! Our pilot, Greg was very friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed our trip thoroughly.

No better way to see this beautiful island! Blue Hawaiian is by far the best provider of this service on the island. Great staff, best aircraft and a strong commitment to safety. Enjoy the beautiful experience!!
