I have taken a tour with Blue Hawaiian on every island except Lanai. Excellent tours to be had and upgrade to the Eco Star for an ultra comfortable and nice ride. This was my second tour on the Big Island as I was traveling with a friend and this was her first helicopter tour. A couple things this time around, we booked the Grand 2 hour tour which was more 1.5-1.75 hours but that was okay, maybe because I had taken tours before. My friend and another couple not so happy for the over $500 per person price tag (tour cost + all taxes and fees). They recommend the USB drive video but beware it cost about $40 on top of the tour price, you can request a DVD for $25 but they may be phasing this out. You can order and go back to pick up the video as they need 30 minutes to process as it is from your actual flight. I would not recommend this for young children, for the price and the discomfort (ears, noise) but I realize if you don't have a sitter you may be tempted to take them. I'd truly recommend the coast line tour, flying over the volcano is great to see but for the added cost for the flight it was very expensive. I hate to say anything but positive as I love this tour company and the experience but the price was just way too high for a 90 minute tour.
Excellent tour and Training video beforehand, The sights were breathtaking and the pilot was very well qualified - I know because I'm a pilot. - Matthew Gebken , Beaverton, OR
Amazing flight. The staff at Blue Hawaiian was outstanding. Mark, the pilot, did a great job at flying us to some of the most beautiful places we have ever seen. His knowledge of the landscape was informative and made the tour that much better. Thanks to everyone at Blue Hawaiian.
This was my second flight with Brodi. He is an excellent pilot!! He is very informative and makes the flight experience so relaxing too! This flight was exceptional, going into the crater was a spiritual experience!! Still wiping my tears....Very memorable for sure! Thank you Brodi for a great memory on our vacation!
Brodie's piloting skill is amazing but what made the trip truly spectacular was his intimate knowledge of the Hawaiian culture. the weather was unbelievable as well. Thanks Brodie!!!
Chris was EXCELLENT!! I got a little nervous a few times, but he was so calm - that helped me tremendously. What a great experience - checking it off my bucket list, all because of you guys!
