Blue Hawiian Hellicopters is by far the best way to see Kauai..the aircraft are beautiful and the pilots are great. Our pilot Brody is a native of the island and explained everything we saw. He was extremly professional yet very personable. If you want to see the island the way it is meant to be seen, Blue Hawaiian is the way to go.A liftime of awesome memories!

This was the best adventure of the trip. Pilot Geoffery was great, he gave us the history of the island, since he grew up on this island. The views were breath taking. This should be on the list to do. Highly recommend getting the video of your flight where you can experience it over and over again. The Jurassic Fall's and where the opening of the mover was filmed was great.

Having read a lot about the different activities for our trip to Kauai and Oahu we decided to take a helicopter trip on Kauai and on Blue Hawaiian as our provider. We could not have been happier. Our pilot Brad was professional, fun and very informative. We could not believe the views, and his ability to have EVERYONE get a good look at everything we went by. He was able to make that helicopter do whatever he wanted and what he wanted was to show us a beautiful island in the only way to appreciate it's magnificence. Do yourself a favor and book one now!

If you are lucky enough to find yourself on the island of Kauai, a helicopter ride over this beautiful island is a must! The scenery is breath-taking and our pilot Geoff (a native of Kauai) provided us with an expert commentary. His flying skills were also second-to-none. The helicopter was in first class condition and the whole experience with this company was superb and highly professional. Simply cannot praise them highly enough!

this tour was AMAZING. what a complete, awe-inspiring experience from beginning to end! it is always FANTASTIC to learn about one's home and to see it all in person was so, so, SO fulfilling. from the dryness of kona... up the summit of mauna loa... over to volcano to witness actual BUBBLING LAVA in kīlauea... to the wetter, greener side of hilo... and on up to see the MAGNIFICENT waterfalls of the kohala coast! WOW. WOW. WOW. nature's beauty in all her forms. <3 and the private waterfall landing was EPIC. if your wallet can afford it, splurge!!! it's well worth the experience and memories you'll make!!!

The Blue Hawaiian team is professional and friendly and I found them all very courteous from the driver of the transportation vehicle to the Pilot and everyone I met in between! The staff knows how to make everyone comfortable (some people were a little nervous) and they are very thorough with safety instructions and making sure everyone is paying attention. The equipment is clean and inviting and great care is taken throughout the tour to make sure everyone gets a good view. There is not a bad seat in the helicopter! Our pilot Jeff remembered everyone's name and often spoke to each of us calling us by name using the in flight intercom system. I was able to purchase our inflight video which shows not only the surrounding landscape, but also captured some moments of the people inside the chopper which is PROOF that I did it! LOL. Great service and fantastic trip - breathtaking! My husband gets vertigo so I booked this as an excursion from the Pride of America cruise ship making me a "solo". The price would be better if booked on your own, but this gave me the transportation and timing I needed to get back to the ship on time. There were 4 other passengers, a pilot in training and our pilot for a total of 7 people in the helicopter. The two people in front had the best seats of course, but I had a window in the back seat and I was just as happy. Customers are seated according to weight to balance out the aircraft so you don't have a choice of seats - you are placed where you need to be by the company. Great memories that will stay with me for a long time.

My family and I did the tour of Oahu. It was 45 minutes, and it was extremely informative. I got the back window seat, and I could see everything. My pilot was Jen. Ask for Jen! She was absolutely fantastic. She looks very young but she was a Blackhawk pilot at Iraq. We saw sacred falls, movie sets, and many other awesome things. The 45 minutes went by so fast, and I was so sad when it was over. Jen even told us that by the big island, another island is forming. Cool right? She took us over the dole plantation, and took us the exact route the Japanese took when they bombed Oahu. I was extremely impressed, I would definitely recommend this to anyone going to a Hawaiian island!

We booked our family of 6 on Blue Hawaiian, based on other Trip Advisor reviews. They aren't the cheapest, but with 2 people prone to motion sickness, cheap wasn't what we wanted! Booking, easy. Our taxi driver didn't speak English, so we wound up at the main terminal-and had to call Blue Hawaiian for help. They quickly sent a shuttle over to retrieve us, so gracious and helpful! Having 6 people, we filled the EcoStar helicopter which we loved. Our pilot was Jen, who flew Blackhawk helicopters when she was active duty. (Yes, we LOVE supporting our veterans!), also gave us great confidence in her skills. She was great at communicating with the kids, got some good highlights on what we were seeing, and a very smooth ride. We highly recommend this adventure!

We enjoyed our Blue Hawaiian Helicopter tour so much on Maui that we did it again on O'ahu! Our pilot was awesome and very informative! Loved seeing the island from above! We would do it again! Highly recommend! Worth every dollar! (Book online for a discount!)

I have never been in a helicopter, so that part was so awesome. I never thought I'd have the courage to do this, but I decided to put my fears behind me and do it. The tour itself was interesting. The pilot/tour guide was very informative and tried to find us some active lava flows. I guess the lave a flow itself was different than I expected. Not a bad thing, just different. I guess I expected lots of flowing, maybe flaming lava, and that wasn't the case. I learned a lot on the tour and in the days after the tour. I would recommend it. Your will learn a lot and see interesting things. They did a great job.

Great service, great experience, fantastic helicopters and a totally awesome flight. This was a great way to see the diversity of Hawaii.

We took the Helicopter tour of volcano, along w/ Zipline Company tour excursion to waterfalls. Pilot personable, calls each of you by name ( a gimmick to personalize the DVD they try to sell afterward, but still a nice touch).

Blue Hawaiian came highly recommended by several people we spoke with in our resort, and before leaving for Kauai. I thought it was just the usual hype by people with a vested interest! I was wrong - this is the best and the ONLY helicopter tour operator to go with, in my opinion. Our pilot Marty was a highly experienced pilot and a very knowledgeable tour guide, all wrapped into one. He immediately noticed that our daughter was extremely nervous about flying and went out of his way to put her at ease through his encouraging comments and, above all, by flying that chopper ever-so-gently! Marty and the team at Blue Hawaiian are simply excellent at what they do. You can't go wrong.

Went up with Greg. Most amazing tour. Pricey but worth every penny. Got to hover in the middle of a 360 degree rainbow. Took us over most of the island. Most is accessible only by air or sea. Greg made sure we saw all the amazing waterfalls and valleys. He explained the history of the island and pointed out were movies like Jurassic park and Jurassic world had been filmed. Also showed us the movie stars' mansions. Such a beautiful island, would have missed tons if we had only driven around. Highly recommend.

We spent a little bit more for this tour - based on our concierge recommendation and it was sooooo worth it. Smooth as silk and felt like a much longer ride than just 55 minutes or so. First class facility and with our deal through the concierge we got a free t-shirt and video. be sure to wear dark clothes maybe even pants so your skin or light clothes don't create a reflection on the window - was a little annoying that the guy in front had super light legs that showed up in a lot of our pictures. Not his fault - just an observation. ENJOY!
