From start to finish this trip was amazing, starting off with complimentary hotel pick up, when we arrived at the helipad the staff were all very friendly and the complimentary coffee and water were an extra touch. The helicopter flight itself was sensational and the views we where able to see were out of this world, from flowing lava, to the biggest waterfalls I think we will ever see in my life. This is by far the best way to see the island, no picture we toke truly shows the views or beauty we seen. Our pilot Gregg F was great throughout the whole trip his knowledge was second to none and he was able to answer any questions asked and also made it a fun and exciting experience for all. I would highly recommend Blue Hawaiian to anyone.
From making the reservations to meeting Vincent at check in and our pilot Julie made the tour the Oahu just breathtaking!! Even the ground crew to make everyone on the tour feel special. Can not wait to come and take the tour on Maui next year!!!
Best part of our trip! Our pilot, Marty, was great and the views were unforgettable. It was a little rainy at times and the trip was still wonderful. From check-in to completion all went smoothly. The helicopter was comfortable. I'd recommend this !
This was our first helicopter tour and we can't wait to take another. The helicopter was large and comfortable and very safe. Our pilot Marty was very experienced and knowledgable and made the tour so informative. We saw places we never imagined and would have missed if we didn't see them from the air. We purchased the optional video of our trip and watched it on our second day home. We will be able to relive the memories for years to come. Truly the highlight of our visit to Kauai.
This was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. The flight over the waterfalls, canyons and cliffs of Kauai was beyond gorgeous. The pilot Geoff, was skillful, informative and had a great way of getting our little group of people all connected. The music selection for the various sights was spot on. There were moments when I wept for the beauty of it all.
My first helicopter ride and completely jaw dropping. Words cannot explain the views and beauty you can see from the ride. My pictures do no justice. This tour was so professional and orderly. I could not be more impressed. Miguel was our pilot and he explained everything so well. He made it very fun and was knowledgeable about about questions. The video is worth it!!! Buy it.
Superb helo tour. Ask to be assigned so Marty is your pilot. He is a superb pilot with 20 years and 12,000 hours in helos. Also he is a knowledgeable travel guide who is friendly to kids and adults and is open to all your questions.
Great tours would fly with this company anywhere in Hawaii. Service terrific, tours spectacular! We did a fly over Oahu great pilot, shuttle service to and from hotel included. If you get chance do it early in your stay in Hawaii
We took the 2 hour tour of the Big Island. Took off in strong winds, and made it across the island within about 20-25 min. Saw the volcano up close, with the pilot doing a great job of twisting and turing us for the best views. Headed up the coast, and saw more waterfalls than we could count, including going up into a canyon, and getting up close with the waterfalls at the end.
I'm 32, but felt giddy as a schoolgirl the whole flight! We opted for the Big Island Spectacular Tour to give us both flights over Volcanoes NP and up the Kohala Coast. This is the tour to do! Also pay for the Eco-Star helicopters - Blue Hawaiian worked with the helicopter designers to make the ultimate touring craft - tons of windows with very little view obstruction. Our pilot, Carl, was incredible - friendly, knowledgeable, competent, and funny. He did a great job of doing several passes to ensure that each side of the helicopter got to see the natural features. We flew over the Kilauea crater (was just bubbling lava while we were there), but it was awesome to see. We flew over several other areas of lava activity (steam vents, flows, etc). Then we landed in Hilo to refuel before heading up the Kohaha Coast and up through the Waipio Valley. That 15 minutes flying through the valley will be with me always - steep, lush mountain sides with multi-hundred-ft waterfalls cascading at every turn. As we entered the valley, in the headset, the music switched to Enya, and I was covered in goosebumps and the others could here me giggle with excitement - everywhere you looked was a waterfall. Carl banked us around mountain after mountain. I didn't want it to end. Book this tour now.
Superbly run, safety is a top priority. All done with the most professional and extremely friendly and helpful staff. Made everyone feel totally comfortable. Additionally our pilot was totally knowledgable about all the terrine covered, with tons of insight into each.
Wow! What a wonderful experience! This was a very professional and organized opportunity to view the island! Our pilot was fabulous! Very informative and interesting! Would definitely recommend The Deluxe Tour with waterfall!!
After recently visiting Hawaii and trying to purchase the video, the credit card wouldn't go through so we paid cash. We were assured the card would not be charged. Get home and there is a charge on the card and we have not had a reply to our emails. We had a great time on the helicopter pity it was marred by this event
Even Paul Revere would have benefitted from this experience. This is a must have adventure for those seeking to really see Hawaii. The trifecta of a cordial, professional pilot (Julie); great up close views that were balanced for clients on both sides; and a take home video option left me wanting more. It might just be enough to make a grown man cry, but I skipped the emotional tears and truly enjoyed the journey! Mahalo to Juli, grounds crew and office staff for an incredible memory.
This was an amazing tour of Oahu, and our pilot (Julie) was very informative, and she did a great job to make sure everyone ended up with an awesome view!
