We cannot speak highly enough of our helicopter tour with Markus as our pilot. He put everyone at ease immediately and provided great details about all the areas that we flew over. It's great to read that Blue Hawaiian's pilot training standards are higher than other companies (they also have their own simulator for training). We loved how the background music playlist was perfectly appropriate to the areas we were flying in. We were also very impressed with how professional the entire staff was from office staff to ground crew to our pilot. The helicopter was immaculate, and the windows didn't have a scratch which made for amazing photos. The helicopter windows and seating make for excellent viewing from all seats. We have had many different experiences in Hawaii through different visits over the years, but our helicopter tour today was a highlight of them all! Thank you Markus and Blue Hawaiian- we're so thankful we chose you for our helicopter tour!

Marcus was very knowledgeable and the tour was great. We saw a whale and many island highlights. More expensive than other but worth the cost.

We were very upset and dissapointed after waiting 2 hours and spending $100 on transport getting there, we were told that our ride is cancelled. It happens. We get it. However Blue Hawaii did not put us on next flight ( and cancel people who didnt even get there yet ). Yes, they offered for another day but that was not an option for us. So in summary, we spend two hours and $100 on transport without accomodation by the operator. They really should have bumped people from future rides on the same day who didnt spent $ or time like we did. It was very inconsiderate.

Come prepared to learn about the history of Hawaii. Also, if you have any type of motion sickness, you might want to take a Dramamine before.
