Wonderful spring break experience

5.00We had a really great experience and you could tell that the pilot cared about it. When we spotted some whales, he made sure both sides of the helicopter saw them and could take pictures. Same thing with the waterfalls. Our original itinerary to land in the rainforest wasn’t going to work out well because of clouds so they gave us the option to cancel or accept a little longer time in the helicopter and do the North Maui and Mallonee light path. Everyone was very professional in the check-in was very efficient. They made sure ahead of time that we knew what needed to happen for a excellent experience, including numerous reminders to bring IDs I highly recommend this
Amazing experience. Truly...

5.00Maverick gives the best rain forest experience. The landing in the rain forest was spectacular. Our pilot, Nick, was knowledgeable and provided a smooth ride.

5.00This was a wonderful experience! The pilot was professional, knowledgeable, and funny. We saw so many things, including whales on the north shore, that the pilot took time to circle around and let us see. We landed in the Hana Rainforest and did some exploring and saw some of the most remote, beautiful waterfalls that we wouldn’t have been able to see driving or hiking. I highly recommend this!

1.00Viator is separate from Maverick. Originally I scheduled with Viator, but Maverick called me to reschedule twice. Ultimately, I had to cancel because of the conflict of time. Next time I will go directly with Maverick

5.00100% worth every dime. If you want to explore the Hana rainforest without making a whole day out of it then this is the trip for you. The flight was smooth and the pilot was very knowledgeable with the terrain and questions with the island. Definitely recommend.

5.00The pilot was very capable and cordial. We had to fly an alternate route due to weather conditions and I felt like they took good care of us.
Wondrous, Ethereal Flying through Heaven!

5.00Wear shoes and clothing able to get damp as the landing mid way is likely to be wet. Spectacular, professional skilled pilots, wondrous tour. Beautiful, ethereal. Only do this is you love riding in a helicopter- if you do, it’s a blast. Six to helicopter. Very educational at the landing break, plus Mimosas!
