Cancelled flight after we check in and safety video, appalling service. Wasted $65 of taxi ride to get there from hotel, even got an sms to tell us to come on time for check in

Blue Hawaiian Helicopters - Kauai Professional pilots and breath taking views. Highly recommended on your bucket list. the island is stunning from the air. upgrade to front seats

A helicopter flight over Kauai was the highlight of my first trip to Hawaii several years ago, so I wanted to share the experience with my wife. We flew with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters. The scenery was just as beautiful as I remembered, and my wife enjoyed it as much as I did. Everything about the flight ran smoothly, like clockwork.All the passengers on our flight assembled in the small theater for the safety briefing. When our helicopter arrive, all six of us lined up on our spots marked with the numbers of our seat locations. Thanks to this lineup, the crew was able to get us into our seats quickly, in a way that no one had to climb over anyone else. It was so much more pleasant than the chaotic way that we board airliners! The smoothness continued through the flying of our pilot, Marshall, and through the way that we left the copter at the end of the flight. The careful way that they have organized their flights encourages me to believe that their maintenance and safety processes are just as well carried out. If you are serious about taking photos, I suggest that you do as I did and pay extra to sit up front. To cut down on reflections, follow the standard advice to wear dark clothing. To reduce reflections even more, I used a polarizing filter. Although I have a modest telephoto (200 mm), I got more use from my 18-55 mm zoom.

A must do. No picture or video can give this experience justice. You have to see this wonderful island from the sky. I would definitely do this again.
