This is a review in two parts. The 'bad' first (but keep reading as there is 'good' too). We were picked up at the pier by Blue Hawaiian (BH) a few minutes late, but we were OK with that, and off we went - 30 of us in their bus with no air conditioning. Got pretty uncomfortable. After about 25 minutes into the 40 minute ride to the heliport, we were informed that we needed to return to the pier to get a couple that missed the bus. We did that and got to the heliport a little over an hour late - an hour that we could have used after the flight to visit more of Kona. Some planned shopping did not happen. Despite our late arrival, we still waited another 25 minutes before loading the helos. Perhaps a better word than 'loading' would be 'cramming'. 4 good size people in that back seat is simply not acceptable. I was so constrained that I couldn't even manage to take pictures. It was miserable. OK, now the 'good'. The flight was simply awesome. Over the volcanic activity, along the coast, and up a valley that looks like the set from Jurassic Park. Hovered right over or next to each of these wonderful sights. Nice job Shane! Now for some more 'bad'. The craft's recorders malfunctioned and the DVD of our flight was corrupted leaving us without footage over the volcanoes and sound for only a small portion of the flight. To their credit, they gave us what was recorded at no cost. Summary: Great flight, crappy otherwise.

Took a 2 HR flight with waterfall landing. The staff was incredibly nice and our helicopter pilot, Carl, was fabulous. The only way to see the active volcano up close( saw lava and burning trees). Waterfall landing was awesome. A once in a lifetime experience.

We were picked up by Blue Hawaiin shuttle service from our hotel in Waikiki. At the airport we had the mandatory safety briefing and then taken to our seven seat helicopter. Our pilot Jen was a lovely pilot and had 13years experience with Black Hawk helicopters. The flight was 45 minutes long and virtually covered half the island from Honolulu up the North Shore and inland over the mountains and then flying over Pearl Harbour. The whole trip Jen pointed out places of interest and played the best background music especially over Pearl Harbour it bought a tear to our eyes. We have been on many helicopter rides but this was the best ever.

My wife and I Had a great time recently last month with this fantastic helicopter flight, sorry it's so late to let you guys know about it, Jen (pilot) was so good and really involved us. We recommended Blue Hawaii to our daughter Melissa and friend Sharna as a must do this when they come for holidays. They had their experience with you guys last week with Brody (pilot) It was for them and us the best overview of Oahu and the best tour ever. We plan to come back again next year and will do it all over again on another island. So professional but so personal. Thanks guys for these memories. ? Loved the soundtrack that went with the tour. ?

I just took the 2 hour tour of the Big Island with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters. I took the Ecostar and our pilot was Ian. I can say without a doubt that I will never forget this tour. Our pilot was wonderful, very knowledgeable and just pleasant and personable. Words cannot describe the beauty of this helicopter tour. It is simply the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. I will likely return to the big island and will definitely do another Blue Hawaiian helicopter tour.

Rather expensive but absolutely worth every cent! Our pilot was Steve and he was amazing! Full of knowledge and great personality also. Was definitely the best experience of my life!! You don't get to pick your seat due to weight distribution but don't let that worry you because we were in the back and saw everything. If you can afford it just do it! Staff on the ground were more than helpful and went out of their way to be accommodating even to the extent of driving us back to Kona airport. Cannot say enough about how great this was!! Mahalo ????

You can't control which seat you get and yet that makes a real difference. If you don't sit in front, your experience, while very good, is impacted by always looking out the side window. The impact of watching the mountain come at you is lost. So for us we were a little disappointed because we had an image in our mind (and after watching the videos showing in the waiting room), yet only the people in the front seat actually get to have the experience of coming right up to the edge and over the top. Good experience for sure but not quite what we expected based on their videos (which we believe is due to being in the back seat and having no view of what was going on up front).

Nice trip and I was looking forward to buying the Blu Ray but all they would sell me was a thumb drive for $40.00! I got it and will download it when I get home but I wanted a Blu Ray. No port on my Apple iPad or cell phone.

For the love of my husband I agreed to take one, and only one helicopter ride. Call it a slight fear of flying. In any event, my husband and another couple from the mainland took the helicopter tour with a pilot named Geoff. Geoff was very knowledgeable and friendly - in fact when I got off the helicopter I turned to my husband and said "I would do that again, as long as Geoff is our pilot." Great Job ! Mahalo.

What a great flight and tour allowing us to see all the terrain in Kauai. With only 27% of the island accessible via car, this helicopter tour was first class. Our pilot was an ex Marine and made my wife and I feel very safe. A great job and shout out to Trevor. A beautiful helicopter with nice music and microphones for asking any questions was appreciated. Blue Hawaiian may be a bit pricier than other helicopter tours but money well spent for safety and comfort.

This was our first time in Kauai. Blue Hawaiian was the best rated on Trip Advisor and it deserves this rating. The ground crew was very professional, Our Pilot Geoffry was extremely friendly, a very skilled pilot and knowledgeable of the entire tour. He made our adventure very enjoyable. This tour is well worth the cost and gives you a fantastic overview of what this entire island has to offer. It absolutely beautiful. Ju.st a quick note, if you have a GO Pro - Bring it

Ok so I'm not posting one photo because you really need to see it yourself. Amazing flight thanks to GoGo he really made the flight special. We learnt a lot and he gives great travel ideas for you to do on the tour and points out how to get there etc. We already did the big island tour with diamond head and they were amazing too. He pointed out much of what we did and all that we did was great so A+ for the tips GoGo. You even get the opportunity to purchase the video from your actual flight too!! Thanks again for the great experience we will never forget.

Yes it is a little pricey compared to most tours you will don while on any vacation however this is probably the BEST tour you will ever do. The views of active lava coming out of the volcano, the waterfalls of over 2500 feet and the rest of the island is AMAZING! defiantly get the zip drive of your tour!! GREAT TOUR LOVED EVERY MINUTE!!

Never been on a helicopter in my life till I jumped on this one. IT was smooth and never felt safer with their pilots. What a great way to look at OAHU! Wow... I don't think there was a bad seat in the chopper. The views of the island are amazing... can't say much about it. The pilots tell you a lot of the area.. Point out the malls, Gilligans island, Magnum P.I. house.... movie seats and more. Great price... for about 45 mins of touring. I used my AAA discount.. only paid 210. Enjoy! aloha

We had enjoyed helicopter tours before but this was one of the best! The pilot provided local knowledge blended with his own experiences and sardonic humor. I am a photographer and he accommodated my angles and views as much as possible so that I could get the best shot. Our only unhappiness is that it was over in what seemed like a blink of the eye!
