Free as a bird - Great pilot who shared valuable Information. Doors off was an added bonus. Felt as if you could touch the Na Pali coast. We flew into the crater and the valley. One hour of soaring like a bird.

Amazing experience - We did the 30 min coast tour & it was AMAZING! It was our first helicopter ride & we would 100% do it again. The checkin was friendly & easy. Our pilot Christine put us at ease and flew the chopper so smoothly. We even were able to see several whales, which was fantastic. 10/10!!

A MOST AWESOME EXPERIENCE - As we were stepping into the helicopter without doors, we were not sure if we made the right choice. However, a reassuring smile from Captain Filippo pushed those uncertain thoughts out of our mind and after fastening us to the seats and giving us final instructions, we were off the ground. What we saw, what we felt and what we experienced is something that will take several pages to fill. This was one of the most awesome experiences that we have ever had. The landscape of Kauai is ideal for aerial view and if you go in an Open-Door Helicopter, that experience is enhanced several folds. The massive mountains that you look at close range, the myriad waterfalls that you see from above, the three canyons that clearly chalk out the landscape, the pristine beaches and the Blue Ocean matching the sky above are all heavenly experiences. We highly recommend this experience/tour to all those who come into contact with Mauna Loa Helicopter Tours as the entire process (of check-in, a video presentation, instructions and explanations) is professionally handled at their office conveniently located at 3501 Rice Street. A short ride (in your own car) will bring you to the Helicopter Pad. When it was time for our trip to begin, Captain Filippo (the pilot who was assigned to us) came and introduced himself and we realized we were in capable hands. Once in the air, not only was Filippo's professionalism of flying the helicopter but also his knowledge of the history, culture and diversity of the region came handy. For example, when he mentioned to us about the coco farm of Lydgate Chocolate, we made a mental note and dashed to the Lydgate Chocolate Tasting room before our departure the next day and satiated ourselves with the most delightful chocolates we have had. Filippo's respect for nature and his spiritual connection to the place clearly points out to the enjoyment that he derives out of showing to his customers the varied beauty of nature and this is unique. Additionally, we are grateful to Mr. Philip, Manager at The Kauai Inn, who recommended us to this tour. This is a 'MUST DO' activity for anyone in the vicinity of Kauai and the experience is superb!

Best activity in Kauai! - We did a doors-off flight and our pilot Paolo was very nice and supporting. My girlfriend was a bit scared at the beginning but he did everything in his power to make her enjoy this beautiful experience. During the flight he explained every sight in a thorough and funny way. +1 for the tour in Italian :)

Must do! - We had the best time for a doors off helicopter tour of the Napali Coast and ended up seeing all of Kauai from the sky due to great weather. Our pilot was Fillipo and he was amazing! This was a great way to see the amazing landscape

Only way to see all of Kauai - If you are in Kauai, a helicopter tour is a must! Our pilot Marco did a great job of pointing out the different sites around the island and made us feel safe and at ease. This was our first time ever being on a helicopter and we would definitely go again!

Helicopter tour of Kauai - Helicopter tour was amazing and the views spectacular. Helicopter we flew in, a Robinson 44 was comfortable and doors off experience is the way to go. Pilot was relaxed, very professional and knew the history and geography of the areas we were flying over. I also fly this helicopter and can attest to the emphasis on safety and professional conduct of this operation. Well worth the expenditure.

Excellent Helicopter Tour - My son-in-law and I truly enjoyed this helicopter tour. Everything was very organized and professional, and things were timed out perfectly. Adam was also an amazing pilot and an easy conversationalist as well. Put us at ease very quickly. 100% satisfied!

A private tour... nothing else! - We opted for a private tour to ensure we could fully enjoy our helicopter tour. Our pilot was very generous to comment on specific places or answer our questions. He loves his job and it felt like it! We loved our tour and would recommend it to everyone!

Bad guide really ruins the experience - The tour guide didn’t say a word the entire time so we had no idea what we were looking at. It got boring after ten minutes. Even just telling us what part of the island we were seeing would have been great. It felt more like transportation than a tour and we regret doing the experience. We enjoyed every other tour on the island, but this felt overhyped and very underwhelming. The weather was great, the company was not This was our first day ever in Hawaii and was such a let down. It was our most expensive tour and most disappointing.
