5.00Great flight and pilot! Loved the stop in the rainforest!! We have driven the road to Hana but it was great to see it and the waterfalls from the air.

5.00If you are even considering a helicopter tour, please go for this one! We booked this ride with Maverick Helicopters and were not disappointed. They were very friendly upon arrival to the office and all of the employees were welcoming and kind. Jake was our pilot and he was excellent! He made us feel comfortable from the very beginning, explained the process in great detail, and was a great guide. It felt like he was excited to take us on this tour and show us the beautiful island, and not like he had done it a hundred times before. Landing in a private, cleared field in the rainforest was a highlight and something that made this tour different than others. We spent half an hour looking at plants, tasting fresh fruit and enjoying the views. The flight was very smooth and very beautiful, and we were lucky enough to have perfect weather. Thanks Jake! Would do this again - 10/10!

5.00Fun ride with beautiful views of Maui. Scenic ocean views and waterfalls and a landing in the rainforest. The pilot was great, knowledgeable and friendly. Greg, another member of the crew, was a bonus and provided additional insights into the property. Highly recommend.
Must do in Maui!!

5.00Most amazing experience EVER! 100/10 recommend. Definitely one of the best experiences my husband and I have ever had! Felix was our guide and he was amazing. We stopped and got to explore part of the island no one else does. We got to eat local fruit and had champagne toast with the other guests! It was truly incredible!

5.00An experience I will never forget… the bird’s eye views are simply breathtaking. It was like being dropped into a fairy tail when we landed in the rainforest. Felix, our pilot, was not only a great flyer, but super personable, knowledgeable, and just an all around nice guy! 11/10 recommendation

5.00Our pilot John was super confident made us feel safe at all times. The ride itself was smooth and he had so many great insights around the Maui coast and the Fana, which he described in detail. We couldn’t have enjoyed it more with anyone else!

4.00The excursion was excellent, but not our first choice. Due to rain we could not land in the rain forest. they gave us an option for a refund or a different trip, and we took the trip. Glad we did.
Core memory made!

5.00Felix our pilot was outstanding, first time in a helicopter and we felt super safe/comfortable. Felix did an amazing job explaining the areas we were looking at as we passed by. Once landed in the jungle, he continued his educational portion by explaining to us the different vegetation we were looking at (and tasting). Just an amazing way to see the island as some of the areas can only be viewed by air. Thank you for an amazing sunrise morning flight.
