Wife and I did the waterfall/valley/volcano tour and it was amazing! Our pilot Kai was very knowledgeable and was quick to point things out to us (like whales in the ocean). We also had the lucky experience to view Kilaeau erupting while we were in flight. Would highly recommend.

What a wonderful experience, we had great weather, we even saw the valcano doing it's thing. Loved flying thru the valleys and along the coast. Greg our pilot was very knowledgeable about the island and very personable. Highly recommend.
