5.00I had been very nervous about taking a helicopter excursion. I am so glad we did this. It is very expensive but it is an experience of a lifetime. Our pilot was great. We had a very smooth flight and saw some incredible sites, areas that we would have never seen from the ground. Highly recommended!

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
