We had scheduled the Maui whole island tour but the weather over Haleakalā wasn’t good that day so our pilot, Hugo, flew us around the west mountains and then over to Molokai. Hugo took us to: Nakalele Blowhole, Honolulu Bay, Kapalua, the cliffs on the north side of Molokai, a few amazing waterfalls, over the mountains of Molakai, over the reef on the south shore of Molakai, and the west Maui mountains again. We were disappointed at first that we didn’t get to go to Haleakalā but Hugo made it fun and showed us some amazing scenery. Definitely it was the highlight of our first trip to Maui!

We loved seeing the lava and the ocean entry, but the waterfalls that our pilot took us to were fabulous in their own right. I also loved that our pilot was a women, she is phenomenal and a great role model! Thank you so much Blue Hawaiian!!

We had a great time, the weather was perfect, it was great to see the lava, and Wesley, the pilot, was very nice, told us histories, played songs for our daughters. Definitely recommend it!!!

Wonderful experience- great pilot, great support team, great music selection. Would give more stars if I could!

Thank you Jason, the flight was absolutely amazing and the highlight of our trip. Wonderful time spent with you and thank you for the informative talk about the volcano. Come stay with us in NZ so we can show you some of our country.

The entire tour was very logical and the pilot told us a lot of facts about the island and the eruption. Scottie does a awesome job as a pilot.

Gary and Mike S. were knowledgeable, courteous and professional. I highly recommend them.

It was absolutely amazing! 10 out of 10 would do it all over again! Staff is amazing as well as the pilot especially Derek.

What an amazing tour! From the pilot, to the views, to the music, everything was incredible. Perfect way to see Kauai!

Awesome tour. Greg was great and included so much information on our tour. I loved that we got to see so many iconic spots.

We flew over the volcano and could see pretty well everything. But in direct comparison with Safari Helicopters that we used in Kauai we felt like mass tourists. Pilot was bored and one could see that is was just another trip in his working day. Also the instructions in the beginning were with no heart. Just technical and advertising.

Our trip was over the Volcano Fisher 8 during its very impressive activity. Our pilot was very informative and easy to talk with. At no point did I feel any concern.

I don't know what this tour is like during normal times, but do you really want to go all the way to the Big Island and not literally watch Creation in progress? I was on Hawaii for a business conference, and I didn't do my homework, assuming there was somewhere I could drive to see lava, like I did last time I was there. This turned out to not be true. The only ways you can see lava are from a boat or helicopter. Luckily, we managed to find and open slot just before our flight home. Don't make our mistake: book before you go! We paid a bit extra for the "Eco-star" helicopter, which has much more window area, and I'm glad we did. There are two seats up front with the pilot and four in back. They assign seats based on weight balancing, so there's no awkward jockeying for position. My wife had the window seat, and I was next to her in the middle, but the views are great from every seat, and pilot always passed everything worth seeing in both directions, so both sides could get a good view. The helicopter looked brand new and had excellent air conditioning. That's good news for anyone prone to air sickness, but at least on our flight, no one had a problem, because the ride was smooth as glass. Seriously, it felt like we were riding in a mini-van. My wife was a little nervous about the whole thing, but calmed down as soon as we took off. We headed for "fissure #8", which at the time of this writing is the most active eruption. As we got closer, the pilot gave the history of the eruption and the destruction of the town. We flew right over the fissure, where rules require them to stay at at least 3000 feet. The view was still amazing, but if I had it to do over again, I'd bring binoculars. He circled the eruption twice in each direction, so everyone got a good view and plenty of pictures (which don't do it justice). We then followed the lava flow to the ocean. It looks like an old lava field, but then you realize it's moving - fast! At the shoreline, we were able to go down to 1000 feet and watch the lava going into the ocean. Before going back to the airport, he took us by some waterfalls, where he was able to go much lower to give us a good view. The pilot was very friendly and very knowledgeable throughout. He made a point to remind that as amazing as it was, we should remember that a lot of people have lost everything. All in all, a truly amazing experience. Not cheap, but worth every penny.

We took the trip over fissure 8. Seeing the eruption was a once in a lifetime experience and this did not disappoint. The view from a helicopter is the best way to see the lava flows. The pilot Casey was a great guide and we felt safe the whole time. The only downside was the video we purchased. The quality was not good, and it was a fixed camera so it missed a lot when the copter was ovine around.

My husband and I booked the volcano tour for our honeymoon. The volcano is currently very active by Fissure 8 and it was an unbelievable experience to see the devastation the lava flow has caused and see the power of an active volcano. Our pilot was extremely professional and gave us an amazing experience! I would definitely recommend this if you are in Hilo!
