We wanted to take a helicopter tour and the Four Seasons recommended and booked one with Blue Hawaiian. I just happened to look on trip advisor and saw where this one was higher recommended and even quite a bit less expensive. I am very glad I went with my gut over the concierge recommendation (they must get a kick back). I can not imagine a better experience than the one we had with Air Maui. Very quick and efficient check in (yes, you better pay your parking or you will get a ticket. We paid ours but saw several cars with tickets when leaving). It is only $2 or so. Everyone was super friendly and while you would expect it, I found their detail to safety to be over the top. (You wonder why they don't let bags, etc on the helicopter, but sadly the recent helicopter crash in New York points to exactly why they have these processes in place) Tour itself was unbelievable, I have been to many beautiful places, but the range of topography and views in really unmatched. I would say the west side mountains might have been my favorite, but very close to all of the waterfall views. After the flight they were super nice, we paid the $50 for the photo and video (very nice and not that it matters to me but I think the video is spliced with pictures of the passengers with stock video. There was a ship in the harbor we passed over that we didn't see in the video), they gave us a couple of free posters and good conversation and we were off to Mama's fish house. I would highly recommend this company for a professional tour, keeping in mind they can't control the weather, it does tend to rain a bit, particularly on the east side toward Hana, or at least it did with us.

Thank you for a wonderful review, honest feedback and helpful tips to others! I am so happy to hear that we were able to show you a great time up in the air and on the ground before and after. Believe it or not the video we make is of your entire actual flight! No splicing or editing we literally take the chip from the pilot when they land, preview it and duplicate it onto the USB for those that want to purchase. We really do thank you for the recommendation and hope to see you again the next time you are back on Maui. Aloha~
