We took the tour in a helicopter with no doors on, so there was nothing between you and the beautiful view!

My first full day here and the flight gave me an overview of the island. The DVD was a great way to share the ride with my wife who wanted to keep both feet on the ground.

Truly the highlight of our trip. Reserve early or before you go as they have an online discount. Then if it's a crappy day you'll have enough time to reschedule. This didn't happen to us, we had a perfect day, but several people said they had to reschedule. The weather in Kauai changes quite a bit from day to day. It kind of reminded us of home (in Colorado). Plus our video of it we bought turned out wonderful. Wish the video had more of the whales we saw, but oh well. We saw two humpbacks in the ocean on the Napali coast. We were looking for the sighting of a shark, but could not find it. Fun to see the whales breaching. Our pilot was very experienced and was smooth in his turns. I still felt a little queasy but I knew this was going to be an issue for me. It didn't sway me though from going. Plus we had some young kids with us. I say get over it and just do it. It's only an hour long tour. Our pilot shared info. on local hikes and some great beaches to visit along with the names of local places of interest. It was so neat to be seeing things so close up and in many areas you could not drive to.

This was a real treat. Blue Hawaiian helicopters are spacious and have good viewing from every seat. Our pilot, Scott, gave great commentary as we soared over the spectacular Kauai landscape. The other staff were all helpful too, we got stuck in Kapaa traffic and were running late, they did everything to get us out to our flight. No pushing of extras either. There is a DVD of your trip if you want it for a reasonable $25 but noone pressured us to buy. We were with a group of five and enjoyed watching it together a few days later. Definitely a must do activity on Kauai.

After the shock of parting with your cash $700 for 3 people and the disappointment of the uncaring and rude staff in their office...prepare yourself for one of the most amazing helicopter rides you will ever do!!!! The scenery, the flight path over and through the green valleys of Kauai, the many waterfall, the Napali Coast and the migrating humpbacks its all an absolute attack on your senses, bewildering. Our captain Brandyn was professional, instructive and had a soothing calming demeanor which I think are great attributes when flying helicopters this way, however he was a bit condescending with passenger's questions and finally the music choice whilst flying around it was also pretty good, sometimes james bondy like and other times serene and spa like lulling you into a dream like state. Fellow travellers if you are going to part with your hard earned cashola in a helicopter ride it must be in Kauai and it must be Blue Hawaiian...like Brandyn said at the end of the flight ..."if you are going to choose a helicopter ride make sure you choose blue".

I have taken two helicopter tours in Maui with Blue Hawaiian, and this was the first one with them in Kauai. I have to tell you this is a most professional flying organization, as well as their support staff. Our pilot narrated the entire flight to perfection, engaging the passengers along the way. Very friendly, humorous, and he had "hands". Great pilot. I know. Everything is well explained for the novice flier and nothing to be worried about. Cameras are welcomed and the pilot tries to get both sides of the copter so all can see the wonders. DVDs of the entire flight are available afterwards for $25 if you desire. I would recommend that you visit the island on land first; whether by driving or hiking. Then this tour would definitely have more enjoyment. Definitely drive up to Waimea Canyon Lookout. This one tour last 55 minutes. I definitely recommend it. Looking forward to the "Big Island" next May with them to look at the active volcanoes. I took a video of the trip. Very short clips. Used to be 25 minutes, lol! Feel free to look at it. https://vimeo.com/66042800

On Thursday, April 18 we had the best experience of our 12 day stay on Kauai: a helicopter tour around the island that was wonderful in every way. We chose blue Hawaiian because of its good reputation and reviews, and the fact that the tour would be in the Eco Star helicopter, which is very comfortable with great viewing. The weather had been variable so we waited to book 2 days ahead for a 9:30 am flight, hoping for a clear morning over Waimea Canyon . We were lucky, it was a perfect morning for the interior and the NaPali Coast as well, with the right mix of cloud and sun to emphasize and highlight the spectacular canyons and cliffs and beaches. Our experience was enhanced by the enthusiastic and informative commentary by our pilot, Nathan, who obviously loves this beautiful island. As well his professionalism, experience and competence would reassure even the most nervous passenger. He hugely impressed my husband who, because he was himself an airline pilot, was watching closely. Indeed everyone we dealt with at Blue Hawaiian, from the desk people to Brian, the comedic bus driver made it clear we were in good hands, that safety was the first priority, and that we would have a wonderful experience. Which we certainly did!

We had heard great reviews of touring the island by helicopter and Blue Hawaiian Tours did not disappoint. Employees were friendly and Nathan was a great pilot and narrator had a great mix of music for flight. Transportation time between office and landing pad was a little long however they will be opening up a brand new office right at the airport so this will not be an issue anymore. Bring your Go Pro and Camera as anything to capture the beauty of the land is a necessity! I would recommend buying the video of your personalized tour.... it's only $25 and when else are you going to do this :) Flight is pretty smooth however if you get air sick take something beforehand just to be sure!

Everything from the flight briefing to the service was top notch. The pilot was very friendly and knowledgeable. The entire staff was friendly and courteous. We saw things that will stay with us for life. We also bought the DVD of our ride (which was reasonable for only $25). Highly recommended!

This was amazing. First off this company is top notch! The EcoStar helicopter is incredible and rides very smoothly. The windows offered amazing views no matter where you sit. It was just my family of four so it seemed like a private tour. Started with Brian who gave us safety lessons and then drove the van to the heliport. He was so funny and we enjoyed the drive! Then our pilot Marty took over. He was talkative and told us all about the island throughout the ride. He was entertaining and was a fantastic pilot. I would highly recommend this tour. We rode a very small helicopter in Alaska and it made me so sick so I was very nervous about motion sickness. I did take Bonine before going but don't think I needed it. The ride was so very smooth. Well worth the high cost. We have a DVD that they made for $25 as well as videos I made with my Go pro. MAKE SURE YOU WEAR DARK CLOTHES TO LESSEN REFLECTIONS AND USE A CIRCULAR POLARIZER ON YOUR CAMERA

This is a must do for anyone visiting Kauai. It is the best way to see the whole island. You won't believe the beauty until you have done it. This was the first helicopter ride for my wife and I and we felt comfortable throughout the whole ride. Our pilot Brandon was excellent and made us feel at ease with his flying experience. I took a ton of pictures, but you have to take your eye out of the camera to make sure to really enjoy the views. From the moment you go up, until you land is just amazing. The only drawback for me, was that the seatting was arranged by a computer, putting me in one of the back middle seats. I was still able to take pictures, but not as good as a window seat. Also, the man that was in the front window seat wore a bright blue hawaiian shirt, which left blue reflections in a lot of my pictures. I had a lot of good pictures wrecked by this. They recommend that you wear dark clothing so this doesn't happen, which I did, but unfortunatley this man didn't read it. I made a comment to the nice girl working behind the desk about this, when she asked how our flight was, and she was nice enough to offer our video for the inconvenience. They should make people wear a dark colored jacket or shirt to ride these, because most of us only get one shot at this in a lifetime. Otherwise this trip was amazing!!!

Our flight was beyond our imagination. Our pilot, Dean, did an outstanding job of providing a wealth of information about everything we were seeing, and balancing it with humor (Go Redneck!:) This trip is truly the best way to see all of the beauty Kauai has to offer and has definitely been the highlight of our trip thus far. The staff at the Blue Hawaiian office were really wonderful to work with, and Leilani in particular was very helpful in giving us information about the island to plan the rest of our stay. Highest recommendations and thanks for a great experience:)

My 90 year old mother and I recently had one of the most exciting experiences of our lives. The staff did everything to make this a memorable time for mum. We flew over towering waterfalls and into amazing canyons and finally beside the Napali Coastine. The commentary was excellent and at the end we had the option of purchasing a copy of a DVD of our actual flight. I would recommend this to anyone visiting the Hawaiian holidays.

Barrett was a great pilot and tour guide! Had a wonderful time, and would highly recommend this tour for everyone.

We took the doors on tour. All I can say is Wow! Kauai is absolutely gorgeous! Our pilot, Vincent, made sure both sides of the helicopter got to see the same views which was appreciated. I had never been in a helicopter before and was amazed how smooth the ride was. And the windows are so large you can see so much. Not a bad seat. I highly recommend this company and this fantastic way to see Kauai!
