Has some trepidations about this two hour tour, but it was magnificent. Well structured, pilot Greg was fun and highly informative. Saw things we have only heard about. Not cheap, but this is money well spent.
This was our third time using Blue Hawaiian Helicopters for arial tours of Hawaii's islands. They are by far the best company in the Islands, Very informative and the safest. Great narrative and awesum views of the island you are on. They scenery was stunning, and the views of Pearl Harbour amazing. you could of course see the outline and leaking oil from the USS Arizona Memorial.
A perfect way to see the island. Shay was a fabulous pilot and tour guide. He explained all the beautiful sights and gave us time to take in the breath taking views. He personalized the tour by remembering our names (or cheating) but still it made it so personal. The music that accompanied our trip was perfect. I was just looking at the video and was even more impressed. What great memories. The weather wasn't even perfect yet the trip was!!!! Thank you for a great experience.
View areas only accessible by long hikes, boats, or helicopters. Great way to see the most beautiful parts of the island in an hours time! Each passenger has headphones & microphones to chat with pilot & passengers - very knowledgable pilot. There are also cameras taping entire flight which you can purchase a copy of after trip - worth it. My wife & I hiked many trails and drove to many different ares as well as a boat / snorkeling trip along the coast - the helicopter ride was the highlight!
My recommendation is that if you are going to take a helicopter ride on the island of Kauai you definitely take it with Blue Hawaiian and book it to take place immediately following your arrived. Brody was our pilot and he was excellent. Not only will you be amazed by the beauty and diversity of this Hawaiian island, but you will see everything from the air before exploring it by Sea and foot in your upcoming days as a visitor.
We took our flight on April 23, 2015, with pilot Brody. We're told he's the best, and I believe it. He made the experience. His background music selections were perfect for the scenery. His narration was touching, as he described his love and reverence for this island and it's traditions and culture. Brody made this a spiritual experience. I cannot say enough about this excursion. It was beautiful and memorable. We love watching the video of our flight. The scenery is almost too much to take in, especially since you can't really see out all sides of the helicopter. I highly recommend you purchase the video of your flight. The four cameras take better video than you can get on your camera, plus you get all the narration and music. I would do this again in a heartbeat--it was worth every penny.
Thanks Geoffrey for a fantastic safe and fabulous kauai view. I won't hesitate to suggest your company.
Did this on the fly and was glad we did. It was an amazing tour with opportunities to enjoy the unique landscape. Wear dark colors to eliminate the glare in the windows. Check out Costco for discounted tickets and book in advance. Wonderful narration with information on Jurasic Park location. We were lucky to fly with the lost World pilot. We will always remember this flight and the wonderful Na Pali Coast.
We were lucky enough to take a Blue Hawaiian Helicopter Tour recently with Barrett as our pilot. It was one of the most amazing experiences ever. You have to see the beauty of Kauai to believe it, you really can't describe it. And to be able to see sea caves, tunnels, dramatic cliffs, craters from a helicopter -- it's just a blast. Our pilot was informative about the island's history and ecosystem. Overall, it was a lot of fun. A must-do.
Not my first trip to Kauai, but first time I've seen it like this. It was stunning. Stunning. The facilities, the helicopters, the service and the pilots were all perfect, and the experience was priceless. Do it.
We took a two hour tour of Hawaii and must admit that it was the highlight of our trip. Pilot, Greg, was skillful and entertaining, showing us volcanoes, valleys and whales on our tour of the island. Words and photos do not do justice to what you see on this flight. We were fortunate to have clear weather which enabled us to get to back valleys. It is a pricey trip, but it is once in a lifetime opportunity!!
I found them to be very professional in organisation, which took the fun edge of the trip. I am assuming that they are doing exactly what they should be doing, people sit in seats as weight, you move out to the tarpac single file and wait for your number to enter the helicopter, I have flown many times and have never had this experience. The island tour was great the pilot very knowledgable, We did have problems after the tour we purchased the video and the credit card wasnt working and we paid cash, We were assured the credit card wouldnt be charged but it was, and all attempts to contact them has been met with silence from their end.
Our first helicopter ride and what a place to do it! Amazing scenery & a fantastic company. Very professional and completely worth the money!!
Loved the adventure! The views were breathtaking and the guide was informative and fun! The tour as worth every penny and created breath taking memories for both of us. You have to watch the weather, they cancel for rain and fog. We bought e DVD to remember he adventure but it was so thin it snapped as we removed it from the case, we recommend the flash drive instead. Really bummed we will not get to see the adventure again. The waterfalls and the ocean views were beyond words. Best adventure to take!
Our Hawaiian holiday was meant to be a time for us to relax & unwind as well as celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary. Tragically & quite unexpectedly my husband passed away. Our children arrived shortly after. The helicopter flight was on our list of things to do, so with our children we took the flight. Jen was a gem & left us with some beautiful memories of Hawaii instead of the horror we had x regards Angela Roman
