多分説明書きが間違ってるか、機種が違うんじゃないかと思うのですが、
パイロット含め前2人、後ろ2人(もしかしたら3人?)の4人乗りのヘリで
1人で参加しました。
説明のヘリ写真も前2人(パイロット含)ですので、配色含めこの機でした。
白人の父親と息子さんらしき方々と乗ったため、必然的にオプション料金なしにパイロットの隣のファーストクラス席、フロントガラスの斜め前下まで見える席にしてもらえ、嬉しい誤算でした。
2月末、天気は曇りがちで、上空は風強く突風も吹き、パイロットが操縦桿を
前後左右こまめに操作して機体のバランスを取っている感じでした。
時折スッと機体が落ちて、体が宙に浮く感じがたまらなかったです。
窓無しヘリで自分の方に機体を傾けて旋回されると、つり革を強く握り締めざるを得なかったです。
時折太陽が顔を出すと、海が一面鮮やかなブルーに変わり、季節外れでも
ハワイやべえ(さすが凄い)!って感じでした。
半袖Tの上に長袖T着て、さらに登山用雨具の上着を着ていましたが、最後の方は少し寒さを感じました。
ワイキキビーチ側、もしくは真珠湾側からダイヤモンドヘッドの頂上のすぐ脇を通り過ぎていくのですが、欲をいえば頂上を過ぎた辺りで一度ターンしてもらえればダイヤモンドヘッド頂上のさらに高い背後から頂上ごとワイキキビーチが観れたんだろうなと思います。
つまり他のダイヤモンドヘッド登頂ツアーでよく見るワイキキビーチを見下ろした写真を、さらに高い所から頂上ごと見下ろせる優越感があるかもしれません。
英語が堪能な方は交渉してみて下さい。
飛行中ずっと話し続けている陽気でかわいい女性パイロットでした。
時期的な天候の悪さを差し引いても総じて超おすすめです。

新婚旅行でのはじめてのハワイでした。今回の旅では回りきれない所があり、どうせだったら空から見てしまおうとツアーに申し込みました。正解でした!天気は快晴、地上から見るハワイももちろん素敵ですが、上空からみるそれは更に素敵で本当に素晴らしい体験になりました。パイロットも素敵な方で、サービス満点でした。度々good?とかok?とかこちらを気遣ってくれ、英語があまり喋らなくても雰囲気で伝わるものが沢山ありました。今回窓なしをチョイスしましたが直に感じる風だったり壮大さは本当に感じられ、オススメしたいポイントです。
また利用したいツアーでした!

スカイダイビングをサプライズプレゼントしたかったのですが予定があわずこちらにしました。蛇行したりのスリル感はなかったですが同行者は怖さも感じていたようなのでちょうどよかったみたいです。こんなにもハワイって大きいんだと感じさせられるほどじっくり周遊してくださって上から見るハワイも格別でした!

The pilot was great, his knowledge of the sites and explanations was entertaining and informative, the music choices were good and the flight was not scary (for those of us who were a bit nervous); instead is was like a magic carpet ride.
I would definitely recommend this trip to friends!AS

My husband & I did the sunset, doors off tour and it was wonderful. Loved every moment of it. The view was amazing and our pilot was very informative and funny. Staff were very nice, friendly, & helpful. I highly recommend anyone with long hair to pull it back into a ponytail. The ride was very cool in my opinion and I wore jeans and a lightweight jacket and was still a bit chilled.

From the moment we took off, we knew we were in good hands with the experienced pilot. His knowledge of the areas was outstanding. We saw where movies like Jurassic park were filmed - you could just imagine the dinosaurs there.
The pilot made sure that we has great viewing of all the sights. He gave us incredible access to Pearl Harbour and the wrecks that are clearly visible from the air.
Would highly recommend!!

This was absolutely incredible! It was my first time ever being on a helicopter. This was a surprise for my girlfriend. My girlfriend was so impressed! Our Pilot, Mooch, was awesome! He actually flew for President Clinton. He was very knowledgeable and he would answer any questions we had. I would highly recommend this helicopter tour. We visited Pearl Harbor and we were able to view the US Arizona from the sky. We traveled around Waikiki and Diamond Head. We circled around the island and finished going by our hotel the Aulani. Make sure to bring a camera because you will have breathtaking picture opportunities. At one point we missed something and we told Mooch. He circled back around and hovered the helicopter so we could get a picture of what we missed. He went above and beyond. We both felt extremely safe with him in control of the helicopter.
I looked at many other helicopter tour packages and I am so glad I chose this option. It was affordable and definitely worth the money. It was the highlight of our trip to Hawaii.

My family and I have been to Hawaii several times, but have never been on a helicopter tour. I am so happy we chose to do this for the first time with Paradise Helicopters because it was a great time from start to finish. Initially, I was scared of flying in such a small aircraft, but our pilot Jay was so great and informative that my fears quickly disappeared and I was able to enjoy myself and see the island in a way that would be impossible from land. Additionally, there were complementary ginger chews and motion sickness bags in the helicopter which also helped make me feel at ease. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see Hawaii in a fun and unique way!

Yesterday, my family and I had a blast on the Circle Island helicopter tour! All staff were extremely friendly and knowledgable, making us feel safe and at-ease despite it being all of our first times in a helicopter. Jay, our captain, took us around the whole island and had a wealth of information about each area we flew over. He also readily answered any questions we had throughout the tour. The whole experience was thorough, executed seamlessly, and will surely be a highlight of our vacation.
It was an excellent way to experience Oahu, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the island.

Best way to see the Island from a birdseye view. From the time we were picked up at our hotel until we returned everyone was very friendly and helpful.

Wow, what an experience. Definitely a MUST-DO while you are in Oahu! I loved the Doors-Off experience as it gave me a chance to get some incredible photos of the island from the air. BUT even more importantly, it was such a unique experience to experience flying as the wind and air rushes by! I'll never forget it. And the service and experience was exactly what you could hope for. The Magnum Helicopter experience was AWESOME, trust me, you'll love it. Best birthday surprise you could ask for.
