The Big Island of Hawaii is the largest island in the Hawaiian archipelago—almost as large as all the other islands combined—and bursting with life. Within 4,000 square miles of land, you’ll experience dense tropical rainforests, black-sand beaches, snow-capped peaks, remnants of ancient Hawaiian settlements, and the incredible Kilauea volcano.

Maui is renowned for its unimaginable beauty. Alpine-like forests cover the upcountry slopes of Mt. Haleakala, the world’s largest dormant volcano. The famed “Road to Hana” hugs the coast, white sandy beaches line the shores, and magnificent sea cliffs hover over the blue Pacific. An aerial tour of Maui will quickly reveal why it’s continually been voted “The World’s Best Island.”

Oahu is the cultural heart of the Hawaiian Islands, offering an eclectic mix of tradition, Hawaiian history, and stunning natural beauty. Beyond Waikiki Beach, the historic sights of Pearl Harbor and the cosmopolitan city of Honolulu, you’ll discover gorgeous shorelines, hidden valleys, cascading waterfalls, and the famed North Shore.
Explore Tours Photo TourSix million years of powerful natural forces have sculpted Kauai into what it is today, a natural masterpiece. The incomparable Na Pali Coast, Waimea Valley (the “Grand Canyon of the Pacific”), and stunning Mount Waiʻaleʻale (the second wettest place on earth), are among Kauai’s incredible wonders that are so remote, they are only accessible by helicopter.

Amazing! 🤩
Pilot Pete tickets on a fantastic tour of the waterfalls of Molokai and got a chance to fly into the valleys and see where they filmed Jurassic some of the Jurassic Park scenes highly recommend this tour
The entire experience was fantastic!! This was a bucket list item for me and to share it with my girlfriend and sister made it even more special. Jeff was our pilot and he was fantastic, very engaging to all of us on the flight. Some may say it is too expensive but in my opinion it was worth every penny!! Thank you Blue Hawaiian for making our dreams come true. This was by far the highlight of our trip to the Big Island!!
10/10. Shoutout to Kaj for an awesome flight!
Have you ever been awestruck by Beauty? Do you want to be? Yes, yes you do. This tour, if you allow it, will move you in ways you may not have words for - it is a Spiritual experience. Everything, from initial takeoff to the final landing was "Chef's Kiss" brilliance - especially our incredible pilot, Shane, who shared really interesting information but knew when to allow us to simply experience the majesty of what we were seeing. The flying portion of the tour is spectacular and covers the Volcanic, the Garden, and the Coastal on the Big Island. You really get a sense of the vast areas of the island still covered in lava flows going back to the 1800's and how Nature just keeps on keepin' on, growing right on top of it. Incredible! The landing at the waterfall is simply breathtaking (and not to be missed in my opinion). ALL the waterfalls are breathtaking! As in, they took my breath away and all I could do was silently shed tears of Joy through laughter - it was so beautifully overwhelming. And the music played in the headphones during the flight was inspired! The cherry on top of an exquisite sundae. It was a 2 hour tour with the time on the ground at the waterfall and that felt just right. There were four of us but the helicopter could accommodate six. If you have to save up for this tour (with the landing!), do it. Every moment was amazing. It did help that we had incredible weather - some scattered clouds but a beautiful sunny day in October. Do It! You will be so happy! And just buy the USB video stick because you will want to experience it again. I did. :-)
They ruined my visit to the big island. EXTREMELY disappointed that they canceled the day before our flight. We booked our tour ~4 weeks before our visit to Hawaii. Of course, we read the fine print and knew our tour could be canceled due to weather or equipment issues, etc. Our tour was canceled because Blue Hawaii wasn't making enough money. There were only 2 in our group and now they said they needed at least 4. We could go as long as we paid $1100pp instead of the $550pp contracted rate. They offered an afternoon book (reviews say morning is best) for the following day - but again, we would have been the only ones booked and probably had the same problem. The same was true for our last day (the day we were flying home) and the same possibility. Poor customer service with limited options to rebook and not much of an apology. Really sorry we didn't get to go or have much time to book with another tour group. Be forewarned.
