Staff were really nice but sadly the flight was cancelled with only 10 minutes to go because of safety concerns due to incoming bad weather - heavy clouds which were causing visibility problems. Flight was booked for 11. 20 am, wish we’d booked it earlier as found out there is less risk of heavy clouds. Staff were happy to rebook for the next day but we were on a cruise so couldn’t do it , so they said they’d give a full refund. We were just very disappointed to have missed it.

Your Safari Crew is always sad to have to cancel tours! Our business relies on safely being able to show guests what Mother Nature has in store for us. Clouds can move in and out very quickly so each flight hour is different and independently checked for safety and quality. Sorry for the disappointment!

Our 4th time with Safari and it was good as ever. Our pilot Jim was great. Stephanie at checkin was superb as well. Each island is different so even if you’ve done a flight on another island, do it on every island. Helicopters are clean and comfy. Just be sure you all wear dark colors so you do t get awful glares from bright colors in your pictures

I'm so disappointed in booking this tour thinking it was out of Kona. Had trouble getting reservation details to show and had to leave with group. When info finally came through, saw it was out of Hilo. When tried booking, was already within the 24 hour timeframe. Have used Viator many times this trip, so used credit dollars. So not only lost tour fee but Viator credit dollars!! Left message as soon as confirmation came through that Hilo location would not work. We were 10 minutes late to Volcano VC. So wanted to see erupting volcano. I'm a 19 year NPS retiree and try to visit all NPS sites. So disappointed.

Aloha Sue! Stephanie Here with Safari Helicopters. We were truly sorry to hear of your plight and regret that we were unable to assist you with this. Mahalo for the reminder to others: Check all the booking details prior to confirming a reservation as it is likely that the booking agent( Viator etc.)has a cancel or change policy.
