What a great experience! Blue Hawaiin Helicopters picked us up from our hotel in Waikiki on time. The day prior, they called, confirmed and gave very detailed instructions. We had a safety briefing and then the fun began. Paul was our pilot. Paul is a retired U.S. Coast Guard pilot and it showed! He was great and gave an awesome tour. The helicopter was clean, well equiped and the sight lines were great. Paul made sure each side of the helicopter got to see each site. It was breath taking. My wife had doubts about riding in a helicopter, but was soon won over.We purchased the picture in front of the helicopter (a must). I don't want to forget this experience. Can't wait to visit another Hawaiin Island and will definetely be taking another tour with Blue Hawaiin Helicopters.
Nous avons fait un tour de 45 minutes autour de l’île, les paysages sont idylliques, le tour est complet, le personnel agréable et professionnel. Le pilote donne des informations sur ce l’on survole (mer, montagne, cratère de volcan, campagne et ville). A refaire ! Mahalo
The pilot was very knowledgeable and pointed out many areas of interest. The helicopter was clean and spacious. I would definitely use them again in the future plans to Hawaiian Islands. The price was fair for what received, but it should have included the video taken by the helicopter camera’s , instead of trying to have us buy it for $62.00 for a thumb drive. Which we did not opted out to purchase. Overall definitely was a great experience. The shuttle drivers to and from the hotel to the airport where the helicopter took off from were very nice.
On a prior trip to Oahu I took this same tour and loved it. I wanted to do it again and glad I did. This tour was a little different then before. We didn't fly near Turtle Bay Resort and the Navy does not allow a fly over the USS Arizona. The closest you can get to the Arizona is the Ford Island bridge. Other than that it was awesome. the funny thing about this experience was out of our group of 6 my husband and I had the exact same seats and pilot as last time. The views from the helicopter are remarkable.
This is a must do.We covered the whole island.Even saw Pearl Harbour and the SS Arizona.Major movie sites like Jurrasic Park,Magnum PI.Breathtaking.
WOW - if you’ve ever wanted to do a helicopter tour ensure you book this one. We did the 60min tour and were lucky enough to get seats 2&3 which were front row but amazing views from all of the chopper.
Wow, what a day. Easy booking process and got picked up by friendly courteous driver very close to our airb&b residence. On arrival you are greeted by well trained and friendly staff who run you through the obligatory safety presentation and answer all your questions, then the real experience starts. The helicopters are modern and smooth and you feel safe,our pilot was aware of turning the helicopter at points of interest so all passengers had the opportunity to take great pictures as well as being well informed on all the infrastructure and history of the area. highly recommend this experience
We went on the tour a few days ago. Loren was our pilot. He was amazing and took special care of making sure everyone could see each thing. The company is focused on safety and made me feel safe and secure the entire time. I do recommend splurging and securing the front seats. Well worth the extra money as everything in front of you is a window (as compared to a seat back).
Absolutely amazing! 10/10 recommend. Christopher our pilot made sure we had a truly memorable flight. He pointed out all of the incredible sights as we took one of the most breathtaking trips around the island. This was truly a highlight of our vacation!
It’s really worth it, my family and I enjoyed a lot. It’s a great opportunity to get to know the whole Oahu island and it’s beauty. The pilot Loren made the 50 minute trip really special for my kids.
While helicopter rides aren’t cheap, I would suggest you do this at least once in your life. This company is very professional and helpful! After you check in, there is a short wait. After viewing a short safety video you are equipped with a personal flotation device. The instructions are clear and simple to follow. Safety is number one with them. You can not take a purse our bag with you but you are provided with a locker. You may take your phone and little camera. We enjoyed our flight and purchased the video of our flight. It is on a thumb drive so you can make as many copies as you like. I think the video is @$60.
We loved the whole thing. Our pilot was very informative a d funny. He made the ride even better. We felt safe and enjoyed every minute.
This was our first time in a helicopter. It was awesome! Such a great perspective of the island. We went mid week and it was super cool to see from the air some of the places we had experienced on the ground first. Our tour was running a full hour behind, but they more than made up for it by giving us a private tour and the video at no charge and making sure we comfortable while we waited. Service was awesome, very attentive to safety, comfortable area to wait. Had so much fun! I highly recommend them. First class all the way!
I loved it from begining til end, being a EMS pilot I love seeing things from the air, There was just so much beauty to see. The pilot was very friendly and had a lot of information to share. I would not visit another island without taking another Blue Hawaii tour
We had Christopher as our pilot..good smooth ride. He made sure to circle around to have everyone see the beautiful aerial views. We were a bit late and the company was understanding and allowed us to keep our time for our eco tour flight.
