Excellent pilot and staff on the ground, especially Bones who was very funny and put everyone at ease.
Thank you for a fantastic experience.

My husband and I went on the Blue Hawaiian helicopter tour of Kauai. The outift was recommended to me by my boss, who had done it 20 years ago. The flight was amazing! You may think that you can see the island from a plane, but it is not the same. The center of Kauai has no roads, so this is the only way to see the area. The views of Waimea canyon and the Napali coast were awesome. My husband had never been on a helicopter tour before and was a little nervous. He was given the front seat by the door and I sat between him and the pilot. The seating is decided by weight. Well, my husband and I loved it. Everyone aboard did. The pilot (Jason) was great. He was funny and informative. I would highly recommend blue hawaiian helicopter tours.

Very nice partly cloudy and 75 degrees at check-in at 7:15 am. Seemed to wait forever before getting to the pad around 8... safety talk.. what to do in case... The driver and safety guy... sorry I forgot their names.. were high energy and very comedic.. fun... from there on it was down hill.
We were always really high up... and far away.. ok save once. The pilot was canned and dull... no humor... his favorite sentence was "isn't it beautiful" He must have muttered it a hundred times, so yea, it was beautiful... tell us something we don't know... which he did on 4 or 5 occasions... I did not know it was the 50th anniversary of Elvis' Blue Hawaii... I know dealing with the public and doing the same flight and talk 7-9 times a day is going to get boring... but geez.. next time DON'T SAY ANYTHING!

The staff were all very friendly and informative. Our pilot was excellent! What a beautiful trip. Seeing the canyon and the Napali Coast from above is just spectacular.

ファーストクラスを予約しました。国内で1回、現地に到着してすぐに1回、前日の朝にリコンファームをして朝から車で2時間かけて事務所に行くと、ファーストクラスはキャンセルになっており、返金を受け取るかやめるか選択しろと言います。理由を聞くと客が少ないので間引いた。そしてもうひと組の予約の方が早かったからそちらをファーストクラスとしたという説明です。そして約束の時間が来ても誰も来ません、つまりは次のフライトに組み込まれ1時間さらにまたされたわけです。つまり2時間の時間が無駄になってしまいました。それでもキャンセルすれば一日ぼうにふってしまいますので仕方なく乗ることにしました。するとなんと私の席はヘリのど真ん中、せっかく3キロもあるカメラを国内から準備していったのに何も撮れませんでした。しかも真ん中の席で酔ってしまいました。店からは最後の最後に一言I'm sorry.です。散々文句をいいましたらDVDをただで送るから住所を書けと言われました。予約の意味もありませんし、その対応の悪さと言ったら今まで受けた侮辱のなかでもトップクラスです。こんなことなら他の業者にお願いすればどうせ体重は軽いのだから前の席になっていただろうから、そちらのほうがずっと良かったと本当に後悔しています。ちなみにファーストクラスがそのようにされた場合右の席をなんとか交渉して確保することをお勧めします。断崖が良く見える席です。

the welcome was warm and easily put everyone at ease ..
the sale gimmick of taking a photo near the helicopter nad selling it at a exhorbitant price soured the experience to some extent..suggesstion is to give it as a momento at a throwaway price..the good will it would create would build the brand immensely..

This was a great attraction to take! I was told the best way to see Kauai was by air, but was not crazy about taking a helicopter ride, so this was a great alternative. The pilot, Paul, was great and very informative! The weather wasn't the best (rained some), but we still got to see alot and Paul made sure that if it was raining in one area, we went around it to see it from the back side or another angle. It was great! There was six in my group and we all said we would do it again!

The only concern was the pilot spoke quite softly and couldn't hear all the time, otherwise super.

Well run activity, friendly staff.
For those who have not been in a helicopter on Kauai this is a must do activity. Blue Hawaiian is outstanding in service and quality of tour. On time and very friendly - no cattle calls.

Went to Kauai as part of our honeymoon and thoroughly enjoyed the helicopter tour. The most beautiful and amazing parts of Kauai can only be seen from the sky and this helicopter meant we could see it all! Pilot was very friendly and it was a plush helicopter, making it a comfortable journey. The pilot narrated the journey and made sure we saw everything very clearly. When the sun wasn't in the best position, he turned the helicopter around to make sure we got good photographs - nothing was missed! Would fly with Blue Hawaiian again :)

It was excellent. I thought it was a little overpriced but other than that it was a great experience. I also wished it had lasted longer.

今回、カウアイ島に行くに当たり、絶対に参加したかったのがヘリコプターツアー。
TVでみて一目ぼれしたカウアイ島の絶景を見るには、やはりTVと同じように空からでしょ!ということでこちらのツアーに申し込みました。
結果、大正解!
ナパリコーストや、ワイメアキャニオンなど、眼下に広がる景色には行きを飲むものがあります。
また、絶対にヘリコプターでしか行けない場所を見れるのも貴重な体験です。
カウアイ島に来たら一度は参加するべきです。
今回、ちょっと奮発してFirst classを申し込みましたが、多少予算オーバーでも絶対にFirst classに乗るべきだと思います。
後部座席は4人がけで、体重によって座席が振り分けられるため、どこに座るかわかりません。
真ん中の席になると、ちょっと外が見づらいかなぁと。
あと、日本語ガイドとありましたが、私の時は英語ガイドでした。
他にもお客がいたためだと思います。
いずれにせよ、空からの景色はなかなか見れるものではありません。
アクティビティの値段としては少々高い部類ですが、それに見合うだけの価値はあります。
参加して本当に良かったツアーでした。

1日でカウアイ島の見どころを回ってしまいます。
英語ツアーでアメリカ、オーストラリア、日本からの参加者でしたが、みなさんと仲良くなりバスの中でも盛り上がりました。途中途中でガイドさんがウクレレを弾きながら歌ってくくださるのもよかったです。
ランチは、ゴルフ場の中のレストラン。景色もよくおいしかったです。

Whether you are visiting Kauai for the first time or if you are a seasoned traveler, you will definitely want to check out Kauai Air Tour - Air Ventures Hawaii. There is no better value for your money.
The staff at Air Ventures was so helpful and courteous. Our pilot, Joel made landing in a small aircraft feeling like you were on a huge jet. It was the best landing I have ever experienced; I tried to convenience him to travel back and pilot our plane to San Diego. His pilot skills were superior; he could easily become a commercial pilot.
Air Ventures -- you offered me a once in a lifetime opportunity. I give you the highest form of recognition. Thank you for all that you have done. You can rest assured if I ever make it back to your Hawaii you will be the first business I call to book my air excursion.

We started our time on Kauai with this. Awesome!! A great overview of the island. I would recommend that people have a basic outline of the major areas but the pilot was terrific. My only disappointment was the quality of the skycam doesn't do justice to the brilliant colors we actually saw!! Also, if the sky cam could be made to pan a little, even say 15 or 20 degrees to either side more of this beauty could be captured!! While a little expensive this is a must do!!

The tour is a bit rushed as expected because of all the area covered. However, you get to see a lot, but for a small amount of time. Waimea Canyon is most definitely the highlight of the tour. The river trip and fern grotto weren't too exciting. The tour is a good way to get an overview if you just have one day on the island (like we did).

First Time in a helicopter and I had the front seat. The views from the air are out of this world. Would love to see all of the island's this way. Purchased the DVD just for the wonderful information that Travis gave us. Too much to remember so get the dvd. Color on dvd is ok. Lots better live but it's our flight to remember forever. We saw places you can never see by car. A must do for everyone to see the beauty of Kauai. Thanks for the great time Blue Hawaiian and Dad and Janet for taking us on the tour. Loved it.

Our family of four took the helicopter ride with Travis.
Wonderful pilot, great tour guide.
3 of us have taken helicopter rides before, 1 was her first time.
She was able to sit next to Travis in the front seat. Her reaction was priceless!!!!!
We never get tired of seeing Kauai by air. Just breathtaking.
Made our travel (by car) on the island more enjoyable after seeing it from up above.

ヘリコプターに乗る理由はその初めて訪れる場所の全体像を把握、ハイライトを、というところにあると思う。
特に短い滞在で トレッキング等はしないつもりの旅程ならぜひお勧めする。ナ・パリコーストは上から眺める景色がやはり最高だし カウアイの特徴である長年の雨で浸食された猛々しく美しい赤土と緑濃い山々の深さをきちんと眼で確かめるにはヘリコプターが手っ取り早く 素晴らしいと思う。
山頂を駆け抜ける野生の動物の発見などは上空から眺めて初めて発見できたのでは、と思った。大変感動する物でした。
このツアーには料金別でシートが決まっていますが、ファーストクラス参加の私たち夫婦は 機長さんの真横、全面はガラスとコックピットのみというまさに特等席だったので 景色が見やすくお値段は張りますが この席をおすすめします。
普通クラスだと悪くはないけれど(後部座席4人乗り)前の席の姿が常に見えるので少し写真撮影などには障害になるかもしれません。
とにかくカウアイでの短い滞在のあなたならヘリコプターをお勧めします!!!!

カウアイ島は初めてだったので、島全体を一気に観る事ができるヘリコプターツアーを選びました。
ヘリコプターは何回か乗ったことがありますが、今回が一番乗り心地が良かったです。
上空から見る景色は、サイコーでした。コストは若干高めですが、参加する価値はあります。
日本語ナレーションは無く、英語だけだったので、次回はもっと英語を勉強してから参加したいです。

We just wanted to send a thank you to HawaiiActivities and Sunshine Helicopters for such an amazing helicopter excursion. This was our first helicopter experience and it surely won't be our last. Seeing waterfalls and green valleys and ocean cliffs from the angles we did was so heavenly. We wish you the best and hope to one day return and do it all over again.

It's been 5 months since our Kauai vacation, and Aliya and I are still sharing our flight experience with friends. Every once in awhile we find a service provider that does everything right -- hospitality, value, and exceptional experience. Wings Over Kauai is such a company and I posted my pictures to your website so that others who might be contemplating a helicopter air tour can see just how fantastic the views were from your plane.
