Do it!! We had an unforgettable experience on our helicopter tour. Breathtaking views of the islands and of the waterfalls. Our pilot, Chris, was fun and personable. He gave us an amazing tour. All of the staff were friendly and gave such great customer service, including recommendations for the rest of our trip. Do it! You won’t regret it!

It rained right up until the moment of departure, so I was worried the tour might be canceled... but fortunately, the clouds cleared and we were able to board! Since there is no way to know the weather for sure until the very last minute, you have to show up at your scheduled time on the day to find out exactly whether you can board. It is a special experience to view Kauai's lush nature from a helicopter. Although it is a bit long at 50 minutes (30 minutes would probably be more appropriate), it is definitely worth trying because you can leisurely see a full circle around the island. It is difficult to find anywhere else to become a drone yourself and view the island's scenery from above. In particular, the experience of flying into the valleys between the mountains was thrilling. They play different background music at each sightseeing point, adding to the fun of the tour. And one more thing: another fun aspect is being able to watch the piloting up close! You can't see the cockpit even when flying a plane, but since you sit right next to the pilot on a helicopter tour, it is surprisingly entertaining to watch them operate the various buttons. Don't worry, as you also receive safety training with Korean subtitles before the tour begins. Even those with a fear of heights can do this (you won't die!). Tell the pilot you have a fear of heights and ask them to drive gently. Thanks to Rony, our team's pilot! They say you might get motion sickness, so if you get sick easily, it's a good idea to take motion sickness medication beforehand. Perhaps because the pilot drove so steadily, I felt sleepier than I expected...

What an amazing experience! Pilot Amy was absolutely the best! She knew the islands history and gave us the best tour! If you are thinking about taking a flight with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters, definitely do it. Thank you again for an amazing experience.

Our family loved this beautiful and fun experience celebrating my son's birthday. We felt like we were in good hands with our experienced pilot Marcus, who provided an excellent commentary and music as we traveled to each location. The views were amazing and we learned a lot about Hawaii in a fun format.

Ryan- not Chewy- but pretty darn impressive. ;)

We did the road to Hāna with the helicopter ride back and it was an incredible experience! Staff were so friendly and the views from the drive and helicopter were first class!!

10 stars was an amazing experience! Chris our pilot was cool, calm and collective! We will definitely be back on our next trip to Maui!

Jeff saved our honeymoon! We arrived at 1:50 PM for a 2:00 PM helicopter tour (yes, we cut it very close), but thanks to Jeff, we still made it on board. He was friendly, funny, and made the entire flight even more enjoyable with great stories about the Big Island. He also recommended the best taco place on the island—although we're still trying to figure out exactly where it is! If we return to the Big Island, we'll definitely fly with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters again. Thanks, Jeff, for turning what could have been a honeymoon disaster into one of our favorite memories in Hawaii. - a journalist from 🇰🇷❤️

Amy was amazing. Very confident and knowledgeable about the history of the island. Also amazing pilot. We felt very safe. Super job Amy!!!!

Amazing experience! Must do when youre in Kauai

WOW!! FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE!! We highly recommend Blue Hawaiian Helicopter tours. First, I had the absolute pleasure of speaking with Rowena "Ro" to book our tour. Ro was so very kind, patient, professional, and friendly. She helped make our experience wonderful from the very beginning. Thank you, Ro!!! You are so AWESOME!! We appreciate all your help. My family flew on May 15, 2026 on the Big Island Spectacular. It was spectacular! We weren't able to fly over the volcano but Jeff, our pilot, showed us most parts of the Big Island and we were thrilled at the things was saw and did. The waterfall landing was incredible. We wanted to stay at the waterfall all day, drink Kona coffee, listen to the soothing waterfall sound, and enjoy the cool mist. Thank you, Jeff for making our tour safe and extremely enjoyable. This will be an experience that my family talks about the rest of our lives. We highly recommend Blue Hawaiian because of the fabulous people and the Big Island Spectacular experience. If we make it back to Hawaii in the future, we'll definitely book another tour. Thanks again, Rowena, Jeff, and team!!

The experience was breathtaking.

It was awesome! Our pilot was Matt and gave us a great tour with lots of island information.
