Can’t get better! - A lot of tours end up being great but this was so much beyond that. It was an amazing memory that our family got to share together. Facility, staff, aircraft, and pilot were top notch. As we were flying over the cliffs and ocean with the perfectly selected music in the headphones, it was dream like. So well done and choreographed. Definitely recommend!

Breathtaking views - Very comfortable helicopters that seat 6 people. They take their safety seriously. The views of the beaches, Waimea and Waipi’o Valley were amazing. The cost was a little pricey (relative to other helicopter tours I’ve taken). Still worth it (if you can afford it).

Great views! - Another great experience with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters! While this is a spendy experience, the views from the helicopter are incredible. Our pilot, Shane, took us along the coastline and into 2 different valleys to see waterfalls up close. These are areas you cannot get to by car or foot so seeing from the air is amazing. Towards the end.of our tour, another pilot reported seeing a whale. Shane took us to the area and there was a large whale shark we were able to see, even showed up in the video he took. Seeing the islands on a helicopter is an experience you should not miss.

Beyond Words! - Toshi was our guide and everything from start to finish was spectacular! The experience was once in a lifetime and I could not be happier that my husband decided to push both of us out of our comfort zones! The views of the waterfalls, cliffs and coastline were truly awe inspiring.

Great way to complete my island vacation! - Waterfalls were spectacular! The ride was smoothe and our pilot even spotted a humpback whale and circled so we could see it.
