This was beyond an amazing experience!!! Would highly recommend to anyone coming to Hawaii!
Words cannot describe the beauty. Wonderful pilot, so knowledgeable.
Amazing with an awesome pilot (Barrett)
Great experience, would definitely recommend!
Had an awesome flight with Chewie! The sights were incredible and we enjoyed hearing the history of recent lava flows.
After seeing a report of a tourist helicopter in the news I was nervous so did my research. I’m not an expert but the helicopters here are superior (more expensive) to those used by other companies. Safety was my number 1 concern! That said, a once in a lifetime experience!
David Machuca was an excellent pilot. We flew around several recent lava flows. Chuey was very knowledgeable about the geology and history of the flows and their effects on the island and cities. We flew in an Airbus helicopter — the ride was very smooth. And they recorded a video you can buy of the trip.
Unforgettable Helicopter Experience in Hawaii! We recently had the incredible opportunity to take a helicopter ride in Hawaii, and it was absolutely unforgettable! From the very beginning, Jordan did an amazing job setting everything up — the booking process was smooth, easy, and we felt so taken care of before we even arrived. When it came time for the flight, our pilot Dale went above and beyond to make sure we felt completely safe and comfortable. His professionalism and calm demeanor instantly put us at ease, and his knowledge of the area made the entire experience even more fascinating. The views were simply breathtaking — soaring over lush valleys, waterfalls, and the stunning coastline was like something out of a dream. Dale’s expert piloting made the ride feel smooth and secure the whole time. He pointed out hidden gems and gave us plenty of time to soak in the scenery without ever feeling rushed. We can’t say enough about how safe, exciting, and awe-inspiring the experience was. If you’re even considering a helicopter tour in Hawaii, trust us — you have to book with Jordan and request Dale as your pilot. It was truly the highlight of our trip and something we’ll remember forever!
Amazing helicopter ride. Marcus was a great pilot. The staff was amazing and very helpful with accessibility.
It was a wonderful experience. The view was breathtaking. It almost made me cry. 🥹 I’m so glad I convinced my husband to do this, and thank you so much to our pilot Matt for all the information and navigation.
Had an amazing time with our pilot Matt. Got to see the island in a way I never imagined, and the tour was more than I expected. Highly recommended!
Great experience
An absolutely amazing experience. We were anxious about doing a tour like this, but were blown away. You should get the video, it is a great thing to have.
Great helicopter tour with Ryan! Flew over volcanos and saw the fields of lava from older flows. Ryan was awesome not only as a pilot but his commentary and humor were well done! Highly recommend. One important note ... most helicopter rides we have taken were just the pilot and us. This one is a 6 passenger helicopter- not a private flight. Booked thru TripAdvisor and did not see any options of sitting in front seats (Blue Hawaiian calls these "first class" seats). Was relegated to a middle seat in the back row with limited views. Giving 4 stars simply for Blue Hawaiian not disclosing about limited visibility for passengers in middle seats in the back row. Did not see any options when booking for these first class seats
Ryan was an awesome pilot & tour guide! Best way to see the volcanoes and Big Island!! Definitely recommend this to anyone visiting Hilo!
