Start your adventure in historic Hilo town and then endeavor to the remote and lush Hamakua coast of Big Island's North Shore. Following this breathtaking terrain, you will witness the towering sea cliffs of the Kohala Coast where Waipi'o and Waimanu Valleys open into the dramatically deep and meandering valleys of the inner Kohala Mountains. On this helicopter ride, you'll experience beautiful waterfalls that cascade thousands of feet into the rainforest below where remnants of ancient Hawaiian settlements are still visible. This is a life changing supernatural experience.

We had booked the Discovery Tour for September 12 departing at 7:45am for three adults. We left Waikoloa at 4:30am in order to arrive at the Hilo airport prior to departure time. At 7:00am I received a call from Eric confirming our arrival time. Once we arrived at the Blue Hawaiian office, we watched the safety video and was informed that the pilot was on his way from the hanger. At 8:00am Eric receives a call from the pilot that he had a family emergency. We were given the option to wait till 10:30am in hopes that another pilot could take us. I asked Eric if we could do the tour from the Waikoloa base and he said yes but only for the amount of time we had already paid for therefore we would not get the tour they had purchase and no compensation was offered. This is very disappointing and poor customer service. I understand there may have been a family emergency but Blue Hawaiian should have another pilot on stand by or find a solution for the tour we missed out on.
Super nice folks! Great job by pilot to accommodate our requests.
Amazing! 😍

We tagged a 45 minute helicopter ride onto our Big Island Volcano tour recently. Booked only 2 days prior to the trip date. Great communication from the company. First time helicopter experience for both myself and my partner and it won’t be our last. Dave (Chewy) our pilot was great, very informative and answered any questions we had.
Excellent tour. Amazing service
