Our helicopter tour was the absolute highlight of our trip to the Big Island. The experience was truly amazing and provided a perfect way to see the diverse landscape of the island and appreciate its scale and magnificence. Active volcanos, thousand foot waterfalls, whales breaching, villages overrun by lava, waves crashing against the shore--this trip delivered the goods. Blue Hawaiian were very professional and took safety as well as comfort very seriously. The chopper was modern and comfortable and our pilot Greg provided us with a completely smooth ride. Greg was fun to spend time with and provided us with a lot of great insights without lecturing or being overbearing. Invest the money and go on this trip and ask for Greg as your pilot.

...can't write enough words to describe this experience. The beauty of the island, seen from a bird's eye view, is spectacular. No wonder the angels in heaven applauded Jehovah God's creation! Thank you so much for giving us this wonderful experience we will talk about and remember forever! And a special thanks to Scott - he was informative and entertaining - the perfect pilot - breathtaking maneuvers, yet smooth enough to keep everyone happy. Ahola!

We had a great time. Service was excellent. Scott did a great job, very informative. Ground crew was great.

Felt very safe. Saw so many beautiful things: lava flow falling in the ocean, lava on the land, valleys, falls ... Worth the price.

Our pilot was great and made everyone feel at ease. The view were fantastic overall an awesome experience.

During our recent cruise to the big island, the tenders were even shut down for a few hours as the sea was rough and it was quite dangerous. By the time we got to our destination, all Big Island Spectacular helicopter tours were cancelled due to bad weather. However, they compensated us by taking us on the Kohala coast helicopter tour – a freebie! This included views over the island including the farm land and ranches to the valleys and waterfalls - spectacular scenery on the Big Island. The towering sea cliffs open into the dramatically deep and meandering valleys of the Kohala Mountains. Beautiful waterfalls cascade thousands of feet into the rainforest below and remnants of ancient Hawaiian settlements are still visible too. Two of us were lucky enough to draw Greg as our pilot – an awesome, fun, friendly, knowledgeable young man. We were also lucky enough to draw 2 front seats beside Greg. Got tons of fabulous pictures and consider this to be another highlight of our trip.

Just a great way to see the Big Island! Jason, our pilot was professional and friendly and had a great sense of humor. He was also knowledgeable and courteous. Worth the cost! The ground crew were great as well! A MUST!

First class all the way! Roomy aircraft, comfortable, very professional staff who helped us fully with the enter and exit, strapping in, just a First Class operation all the way. We took the Island tour, the pilot made sure that both sides of the chopper were offered the same views for photography. He explained what we were seeing as well as where we were. I highly recommend Blue Hawaiian Helicopters - can't see many of the views from any other way! We flew over the volcanos, the shoreline, the canyons.

Yes, you will think this is expensive; and it is. You could get a cheaper ticket to the mainland but that is a cattle run. This is truly an experience you shouldn't pass up. Toshi was an excellent pilot and guide. We took the 2 hour tour and went all the way to the Kilauea volcano, saw the lava flows and where the lava meets the ocean. From there we went up into the Kohala valleys and were able to see vistas only accessible by air. The entire staff at Blue Hawaiian could not have been nicer. The obviously have been schooled in guest service. All were very attentive and kind. Great place to do business.

We really enjoyed our helicopter ring of fire flight. Scott was an excellent pilot and tour guide as well as a comedian. The flight took us over the active volcano, we got to see active lava in lava tubes and hitting the ocean. We would recommend this activity to anyone visiting Hawaii!

We booked a trip and were super excited to fly but it was cancelled by weather so we never made it up into the air. However the customer service was exceptional and they were super accommodating. I'm sure other tour companies would have taken people up and showed them some clouds but these guys clearly wanted us to have a great trip and when they knew they couldn't deliver they offered to reschedule and or refund with no complaint. This is great customer service and it was totally noticed.

Had a great time with our pilot Tim. We did the Circle of Fire tour which took us over the waterfalls and volcano. We had booked the tour through Pleasant Holidays and paid for the tour previously. The problem that I had was the additional "fuel surcharge" when we arrived at the tour company. I feel that this was alittle extreme, as we had already paid for the tour. If there is a fuel surcharge, fine, but maybe it should be included in the initial price instead of surprising people at the airport.

Two friends and I took the flight over the volcano from Hilo airport in February, 2013. I took a plane tour several years ago and I would recommend taking the helicopter tour. It was great! Pilot was very knowledgable about the area. The staff at the airport was very accommodating and very helpful explaining all the rules when in the air. You will see things that you won't be able to see on the ground, or it would be too difficult to see. Great day!

We took the 1pm flight on the Eco Star helicopter, and it was great. You get good viewing even from the back seat. It cost a little more to go on the Eco Star, but it was worth it. We went over the volcano and out over the ocean, it was fantastic. You go to the Hilo International airport, take a short briefing/video before boarding.

My husband and I did the Circle of Fire tour. It was an absolutely amazing experience and one of the highlights of our trip to Hawaii. We chose the Ecostar option which was a great idea, and as we both got to sit up front we saw everything! Jeremy, our pilot was very knowledgeable and friendly. He made sure that everyone in the helicopter got to see the major sites (looping and circling several times) such as the volcano caldera and the lava flowing out over the sea. Yes it is a bit of a pricey tour, but I would thoroughly recommend it!
