An Absolutely Breathtaking Experience

5.00An Absolutely Breathtaking Experience — Worth Every Second! If you are looking for an unforgettable adventure on Maui, check out a gyrocopter flight with Armin out of Hana Airport. This was truly a fantastic and unique experience — it exceeded every expectation I had. From the moment I arrived, Armin made me feel completely at ease. His professionalism, knowledge, and genuine passion for what he does is immediately evident. He took the time to walk through everything, answered every question with patience and enthusiasm, and made the entire experience feel both safe and adventurous at the same time. His skill as a pilot is exceptional — every maneuver was smooth, intentional, and timed to maximize the best views. The 60-minute flight itself was very cinematic. We flew over the brilliant blue coastline, where the ocean stretched beneath us in every shade of turquoise and sapphire — absolutely stunning from the air. Armin flew us over the iconic cascading waterfalls tucked into Maui’s lush rainforest valleys, and the sight of those ribbons of white water cutting through walls of emerald green was absolutely beautiful. The dramatic ridgelines and valleys of East Maui were a sight to behold. I highly recommend this experience!
Learning to fly with wings!!

5.00I had an amazing time up in the air! Armin is an amazing pilot and guide and we saw incredible sights that would be impossible to see otherwise. We were in the air for a very long time and Armin knew all about the amazing ecosystem below us and shared lots of interesting facts about properties we passed by. This is something that everyone should do if they are able, and I would definitely love to do it again in the future!

5.00I did the Gyro-copter. The next week I did the helicopter ride. If I had only one to choose from, it would DEFINITELY be the gyro-copter. For ME, WAAAAY much more exciting! Totally recommend the experience.

5.00I first met Armin 15 years ago. Maui is a special place. Hana is very special place within Maui. Armin provides a service for you to see Hana that will make it even more special. The experience(both Gyrocopter and Hang Gliding, I have done both)) is fun, gentle and safe for all. I have been up with Armin multiple times and he makes every trip like your first. Highly recommend Hang Gliding Maui.
