This was an awesome experience! Wow! The pilot was great and full of knowledge. We saw volcanos, waterfalls and all kinds of neat stuff. Helicopter rides are expensive but they are totally worth it!
This was an amazing tour with amazing service. Our pilot Lee was a great host. This is the only way to see the island.
Josh was a great guide and pilot! Very clean place, helicopter, and super friendly staff. Highly recommend :)
it is super fun to see a lot of islands and learn about the history of Maui.
The staff are very nice and they all have an Aloha spirit! The tour is amazing and very detailed, the pilots know their facts.
We had a great flight! Blue Hawaiian is a very professionally run company. As a pilot myself I was impressed with their safety program and with the skills of our pilot Hugo. The helicopter We were in was a 3.2 million dollar Airbus EC130 “Eco-Star” This is one of the nicest helicopters you can I’ve been in. The tour was incredible, included landing in a remote location mid mountain height to look down upon the sea have some Champagne and then back aboard the Helo to continue our tour. Thank you for making this trip a memorable one!
We arrived at Hilo airport, there is plenty of parking at a small price, we were greeted by the staff of Blue Hawaiian Helicopters, they were very helpful and pleasant to deal with, after we did a pre-flight safety briefing we were lead to helicopter. Our pilot Sarah was wonderful, she was very informative and had a great sense of humor. Our trip was just under an hour and was worth every cent. I was very impressed with the professionalism of Blue Hawaiian Helicopter and detail to safety.
We had a choice of driving hours around Hilo and walk to the volcanic area or flying over it for about 1-2 hours, and chose the latter partially because I've already been to the volcanoes on foot years ago and we had limited time. Plus, why say no to a helicopter ride!? What you see from land and from the air is completely different so I would recommend doing both if you had the time. From the helicopter, you see not only the interesting variations in biological composition and terrain of the big island, where you see both volcanic rocks and lavish rainforests, but also the hidden crest in the mountains where the Kamehameha royalty used to live. You'll be humbled by the serenity and power of mother nature.
Best experience EVER!!!!
Everyone is so nice. Gardner was a great pilot. Will recommend and be back
I can't say enough about this company. Easy to schedule rides. Staff is friendly and helpful. Sean was our pilot and the flight was smooth with great commentary about the island. Weather was petfect so he gave us an extra bike of an old War bomber that crashed in the middle of nowhere many years ago. Everyone survived BYW. It's costly but worth every penny.
Thank you for a completely AMAZING tour Paul!!! This was the highlight of our trip - we loved seeing all the beautiful sights of Oahu, and would recommend this experience 100%. Mahalo!!!
Great trip, a really unique amazing experience. can only recommend doing it, the Pilot was lovely and made sure everyone was fine and got a good view
Westly was great. Toured like a pro which I am sure he is. Can't wait to do it again.
