Steve was our pilot and being this was my first time in a helicopter I was very nervous. He made me feel very assured we were very safe. This trip was worth every penny. This company is a little more money but you will not be sorry to spend the extra. The sites, the information given and even his play list was perfect!!!

Awesome, But a Couple of Notes
This was great, but a couple of things to note.
- if you get there early, you can potentially purchase premium seats next to the pilot. We arrived an hour and 10 minutes early, but people were already there and had already done this so if you really want front seats, get there really early. The helicopter seats six so if you are a party of two, you don’t know who you’re going to be in the helicopter with. Which brings me to my next note.
- The other party that we were with was a party of three people and one of the guys was a bit obnoxious. They sell a video at the end of your experience and of what you talk about on the tour and your views from outside the helicopter, and if we had purchased a video, it would’ve been a running commentary of this guy asking how much would it be to charter from this place or that place. And also asking what kind of fish were in a school of fish hundreds of feet below that literally nobody could answer.
This is in no way of fault of the company, but just to make you aware of other parties that you could be a part of and if you really want to front seat to get there super early. Overall good experience we just got unlucky with another party. And when I say another party, just one boomer. Thank you to our pilot for his patience.

TA ripoff
Do not book this unless you are into giving Trip Advisor $80 for absolutely nothing. Just go to Blue Hawaiian Helicopters and book it direct.
I just had an online chat with someone associated with Trip Advisor as I am a long time member and it went nowhere unfortunately.
Btw, it is an outstanding tour!

Spectacular Adventure
Must do experience, such a diverse island that can really only be appreciated by air. Smooth flight, great narration by our pilot Alex as we traversed the island. Definitely the highlight of our Hawaiian holiday.

Loved Seeing Kauai From The Sky!
We absolutely loved this once in a lifetime experience! Do not miss the opportunity to see Kauai from the sky! Blue Hawaiian and our pilot Amy were fantastic guides, ensuring guests felt comfortable and fully able to focus on the views.

Expensive yes… but a trip of a lifetime.
This tour does come with a hefty price tag so it is hard to know if it is “value” for money but I can guarantee you will love the views and flight itself - if your in a position to do it I would recommend.
We had some weather issues so it was actually cancelled two days in a row and they leave it up until 15minutes prior which is the pilots call so if you have a longer stay I would recommend booking it at the start so you have afew days up your sleeve if it gets cancelled.
We were 3rd time lucky and it was epic! Beautiful views, waterfalls, ocean, craters everything you see in the photos.
Pilot was professional and friendly and made us feel safe.
We didn’t pay for the upgrade to the front seats and ended up getting them anyway - great result but the view from the back I believe it still great. Another $300 ontop of an expensive trip adds up.
We had afew clouds and was still breathtaking.
Best scenic flight tour I’ve done in the world!!

Everything excellent!
Everything was EXCELLENT!
I literally called while aboard our noisy cruise ship 10 minute tinder ride, booked flight for a family of 6, gave my credit card and got my email confirmation before boarding the ship. Arrived early as requested, weighed in, confirmed credit card and ID, watched the safety video and boarded. Flight was thrilling, pilot was perfect, views were spectacular. Highly recommend. Worth the price.

Breathtaking Views and a Smooth Ride
Our family had an amazing experience on the Kauai Eco Adventure Helicopter Tour. We traveled with our 4‑year‑old toddler, and he absolutely loved the ride — taking in the views with excitement until he eventually fell asleep mid‑flight. The tour itself was breathtaking, with stunning scenery and a smooth, comfortable ride throughout. The crew was friendly, professional, and made us feel safe the entire time. Overall, it was a wonderful experience for both adults and kids, and a highlight of our trip to Kauai.
