Blue Hawaiian Helicopters Kauai Eco Adventure Flight from Lihue

Awesome Views

Reviewed by: Jfran

Our initial tour was canceled due to weather. The staff was very accommodating for us to be able to reschedule. Our entire family from 11 yrs old to adults really enjoyed this trip. The pilot was knowledgeable and shared lots of history and fun facts about the island. It was defiantly a trip we were all happy we took.

ヘリコプター遊覧飛行 ワイメア渓谷&ナ・パリ・コースト&ハナレイ湾 <英語ガイド/リフエ空港>

ナ パリ コースト 険しい渓谷、幾筋もの滝、紺碧な海と海岸線に感動iiそしてPilotさんとStuffの皆さんに感謝‼

Reviewed by: ユウヤケパットマン

テレビで見聞きしていましたが、この素晴らしい景観をこの目で見ることができて感動の時間を過ごせました。Pilot(Mr.ダレン)さんの英語と軽妙な日本語での説明で、飛行前の不安を忘れ、リラックスでき、あっという間の時間でした。このツアーに参加するにあたって経験したことを少し、記載しますので参考にしてください。
1. リフエ空港からBlue Hawaiiann事務所まで徒歩で約10分(1㎞)くらい。
  (ホテルからカウアイバスを利用したので参考まで)
2.入口ドアを開けると、正面に受付。受付カウンターで名前を告げます。次に、当日の体重を測ることになるのですが、ちょうど自分が立っている足マットの下が、体重計になっています。(何やら説明されていたようですが、よく聞き取れませんでした。)
3. ツアーについての説明開始時間を教えてくれます。
4. ツアーについての説明(安全)は、プロジェクターで行われますが、外国人向けに字幕を付けてくれます。最初のオリエンテーションの最後に必要な人は、と問われるので、”Japanese”。(私は、聞き逃しました。)
5.プロジェクターでの説明後に、自分の乗るヘリコプターの座席位置が知らされます。
6.ツアー終了後、受付カウンターで当日のフライト画像(音声付き)のUSBメモリーを購入できます。40でした。

  • 海岸線でポットポンドを発見!!

  • この日は、たくさんの滝が見れました。翌日の海からのアプローチでは、まったく見れませんでした。

  • よくテレビで見かけます。

Oahu to Kauai One Day Tour - Waimea Canyon & Wailua River Cruise with Lunch

Fun tour

Reviewed by: Zaira

It was a great tour! I loved that we got enough time to spend in the places we stopped at. Also, Sam was our tour guide and he was very nice and gave us fun and important information about Kauai. Great experience. My favorite stops were the Waimea Canyon (breathtaking!) and the super fun Wailua River tour.

Waimea Canyon Sightseeing Tour & Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Lunch

Two Places NOT To Be Missed on Kauai

Reviewed by: KathyK

The trip to Waimea Canyon was made so much better because of our tour guide, Kevin, and his narration / history of Kauai. The canyon itself rivals Grand Canyon in beauty. The trip across the island to Wailua was also full of history and Kevin made it fun; lots of movie trivia and fun facts. The river cruise was entertaining and the Fern Grotto is breathtaking. We were also lucky enough to see a baby wild pig while walking back to the riverboat. This is one tour well worth the time and money.

Blue Hawaii helicopter tour was Awesome! Brodie, our pilot was friendly and very knowledgeable. We were lucky enough to catch a break in the weather and see some sights which had no been accessible for 48hrs. I felt so lucky! A great flight is always subject to the weather. Would definitely fly with them again!!

Blue Hawaiian Helicopters Kauai Eco Adventure Flight from Lihue

Worth every penny!

Reviewed by: Mike and Melinda

The entire experience was awesome. Nice building at the helipad with merchandise and restrooms if you need them. The pre-flight instructions and guidance upon loading/unloading was great with a photo op post-flight in front of the helicopter. The pilot made us feel safe the entire time. I get motion sickness on boats and was a little worried but no issues at all (I took a ginger pill but not sure it was needed as it felt very steady). Take photos/videos on the ride but be sure to just appreciate it with your own eyes too because it’s really amazing! Don’t hesitate to go, it’s worth the extra money vs. other excursions. FYI - this was a review from a rainy/cloudy day...I can’t imagine what it must look like with a nice sunny/clear sky!

Nice way to see the island of Kauai.

Reviewed by: Al Schroeder

We liked the different stops we did. Lunch was awesome we stopped at a new place due to the festival at the town we were suppose to have lunch at. Plane flights were great. Only thing that was negative was the guide tended to repeat herself and kind of bad mouth the US for taking over the Hawaiin Islands. We took this tour on 2/24 with Kats.

Waimea Canyon Sightseeing Tour & Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Lunch

A Beautiful day in Kauai

Reviewed by: Ron

We were amazed by the beautiful view at the Waimea Canyon.
I'm not sure what it is about the fern grotto, it is a place you have to see if you come to Kauai. It's not as breathtaking as other sights in Hawaii, but still it is moving in it's own way.
The tour guide was great and we got to see and hear about a myriad of things along the way that you wouldn't appreciate if you didn't have a guide. They know the places to stop and see, and the ones to pass by.
We would recommend this tour for anyone coming to Kauai.

Oahu to Kauai Day Tour from Honolulu - Movie Adventure Tour & Helicopter Flight

Excellent Day Trip to Kauai

Reviewed by: TravelNut

We wanted to save time but not transfer hotels so we booked a day trip to Kauai from Oahu. It was an excellent overall experience. We were picked up on time but I'm not sure why it was so early because we waited a couple hours before the flight. Our guide was lovely and we enjoyed the movie tie-in to many scenic spots. Lunch was very good at the cafe used in The Descendants film. I would have liked a little more time to explore Hanalei but we did have time for a yummy shave ice. The beach with the long pier was memorable. The helicopter tour was exciting and gave us an entirely different perspective of the island. Once back at the airport we had to wait more than 2 hours for the flight. Not sure why these day trips are set up this way. It makes for a longer day than should be necessary.

Waimea Canyon Sightseeing Tour & Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Lunch

Good, but long

Reviewed by: Kathy

A more detailed itinerary would be helpful. For those staying in princeville, it is a 2 hour ride to Waimea canyon. The time at the canyon lookout point is 20 minutes. The fern grotto is another hour's ride. Boat ride and music were great, but hike and visit to fern grotto from boat was 20-30 minutes. Though there a couple of other small stops, you have to understand most of 11 hours is riding in a mini-bus. Driver was great and preferred small bus to large one.

Waimea Canyon Sightseeing Tour & Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Lunch

We had a perfect day, the driver was friendly and very informative and professional. The views of the canyon were spectacular. The cruise and entertainment was more "laid back" and very worthwhile.

Reviewed by: John and Nadine

We liked the attention to detail from the pick up at our resort to the background knowledge during the driving portion. We had plenty of time to get out of the bus to stretch and take pictures. We seemed to be able to see and do more due to a smaller bus. This tour, like most, is depended on clear and non rainy weather; check ahead to pick a good weather day for this adventure. To combine both parts is a full day; we were picked up at 7am delivered back at 6pm. I would strongly recommend these stops as a "must see". You could drive up and down the canyon, but you would miss a lot of sights and information. The boat ride is also something not to be missed.

Waimea Canyon Tour & ABORTED Cruise to Fern Grotto

Reviewed by: Bruce Cariker

Great tour as far as it went. The river cruise to Fern Grotto was cancelled due to high river levels. When people asked the driver about reimbursement for the cancelled cruise, he responded with some thing like, "You can phone the company and ask for a partial reimbursement, but don't get your hopes up if it doesn't happen." I think it indicates that the driver just wasn't properly informed about how to deal with the situation, Great driver otherwise, and full of lots of info. It would have been fun to talk with him in an informal setting.
