Great staff and great experience! Captain Kirk was great and made the ride very comfortable and relaxing. Great views!

Great experience! Beautiful views of Maui and neighboring islands from a local. We saw so many waterfalls and areas we would not have been able to see on our own.
Truly the birds eye view! Thank you very much for choosing to fly with us!

The flight took off on time the pilot told usa lot about Maui and Molokai. The view that the pilot show us was great.
Thank you for the review and for choosing to fly with us!
It was a fantastic experience. If it could also show the city view for just 5-10 minutes then it would be wonderful! People can see the beautiful mountains, sea and city combined. The pilot has excellent narration!
Thank you very much for the review, feedback and for choosing to fly with us!
One of the best, if not the best vacation experience we ever had and we are a well traveled family. Ride was very smooth and felt like you were on a Jurassic park movie set. We did the doors on experience we were seated in the back and was still an amazing experience. Was very easy to hear the pilot and gave an excellent narration during the flight. Very easy to park. Operation there is very efficient and well organized. I wish the media package was available for digital download because I don’t have a way to view it off a USB thumb drive on vacation, but that is the only note. Otherwise money well spent for the experience.
Thank you very much for the review and feedback!
Camryn is an exceptional pilot, very knowledgeable about the islands, very courteous. He made sure to switch views for different clients.
Thank you! I will be sure to let Cameron know you enjoyed his flight!
There were four of us flying together. In total, there were six people in the helicopter. Unfortunately, this is too many, as the middle seats in the back row offer no unobstructed view—yet cost the exact same price. I myself sat in the front, and it was a fantastic adventure. My wife, who was seated behind me, unfortunately couldn't see anything at all and was terribly disappointed. She wasn't able to take a single photo, nor could she see the sights the pilot was describing and attempting to point out. Consequently, the quality of the experience depends heavily—and unfortunately—on which seat you are assigned. In my opinion, only four seats should be offered for this flight to ensure that everyone has a wonderful experience. After all, the price is quite steep. Regrettably, we received no accommodation whatsoever from the agency, Viator, whom we contacted after the fact regarding this issue. We also raised safety concerns, as passengers simply swapped seats among themselves despite the seating having been allocated based on weight distribution. These concerns were completely ignored. Instead, we received a one-sentence reply stating only that they hoped to be of better assistance to me on my future travels. It was simply unacceptable. In summary, it is a wonderful tour—provided you are assigned a good seat. The pilot was highly professional and made every effort to engage with all the passengers; however, in this instance, his hands were simply tied.
Mahalo for the honest feedback. For every party of 2 there is one window and one middle seat the 2 share one window. If at time of boarding a party of two wants a certain person on the window or not they can let dispatch know and can switch once dispatch checks with the pilot. Total weights are needed for safety yes but who wants the window is not necessarily a safety concern so it is fine if someone switches who is on the window or not. I apologize that your wife was not able to get photos but we do hope that the other 3 in your group (the 2 of you that were in front and the 3rd person on the window in back next to your wife) were able to share their photos with her. The helicopter is configured to carry 6 passenger and 1 pilot on all tours as a shared cabin so the flights do fill with up to 6 passengers unless you book all 6 seats as a private. That is the only way to ensure it would have just been the 4 of you on the flight.
