It was our first helicopter tour and it was amazing. Our pilot, Scott, was friendly and professional. We were provided clear instructions. Scott provided alot of information on the sites we flew over and answered every question. We had perfect weather which made the experience even more worthwhile. I definitely recommend anyone visiting to do this tour.
It was amazing,The Pilot is good person very good pilot,His assistant is pleasant,Thank you for everything guys))))))))),See you next time ))))
Was a good trip but I really wanted to see a waterfall and didn't...
Very bad!!! I had booked this tour through Viator at 4pm in the afternoon. However, a change has taken place via the app booking in terms of time to 8 am. So when we arrived for the tour it had already been and we could not join the tour of 16.00. So all the money is gone and Viator won't refund this. Never book a tour through Viator again!!! Really, really bad.
Reactie (Nederlands): Het spijt ons dat u deze ervaring zo heeft beleefd. De boeking is echter bevestigd voor 08:00 uur, zoals vermeld in de reserveringsbevestiging. Onze piloot was op tijd aanwezig, maar de reizigers zijn niet verschenen. De tour heeft zoals gepland plaatsgevonden. Verzoeken tot wijziging zijn pas ontvangen nadat het geplande tijdstip al was verstreken. Conform het annuleringsbeleid komen no-shows niet in aanmerking voor restitutie. ⸻ Response (English): We’re sorry you feel this way. However, the booking was confirmed for 8:00 AM, as shown in the reservation confirmation. Our pilot arrived as scheduled, but the travelers did not show up. The tour operated as planned. Change requests were received only after the scheduled time had already passed. Per the cancellation policy, no-shows are not eligible for a refund.
Book this experience! It was a memorable way to celebrate my husband’s 71st birthday made even more memorable by the stunning vistas of Oahu. It’s truly the best way to enjoy the natural beauty. The pilot, Stefan, provided just enough commentary so that there was still opportunity to reflect on the beauty of nature. Never a fear for safety as this is a professional company with great customer service. Thank you for a great time. .
From start to finish, our experience with Honoluluheli.com was absolutely outstanding! We were warmly welcomed at the designated gate by Sabrina, an incredibly friendly and helpful person who speaks both German and English, making everything even more convenient for us. She took us to the Honoluluheli base, where we relaxed in a cozy lounge with complimentary drinks while going over some details for the flight. After a short but professional safety briefing, our adventure was ready to begin. Our pilot, Stefan, greeted us enthusiastically and explained the one-hour tour in German (otherwise in English), which was a fantastic touch for German-speaking guests. His passion for flying and deep knowledge of the island were evident throughout the flight. One of the absolute highlights was when he went out of his way to fly over whales, which I saw for the first time in my life—an absolutely magical moment! The entire tour was perfectly organized, from the breathtaking route and insightful commentary to the perfectly synchronized music that enhanced every scenic moment. Stefan also shared valuable insider tips on must-see spots around Oʻahu, adding even more value to the experience. Final verdict: If you’re considering exploring Oʻahu from above, this tour is a must! A truly unforgettable experience with a highly professional and passionate team. 100% recommended! ——————————————————————————————— From start to finish, our experience with Honoluluheli.com was simply outstanding!
