We had a great time! The crew was so professional and nice! Our morning flight was cancelled due to the weather and we were so disappointed but once the weather cleared they had us up in the sky! Blake our pilot was a lot of fun showing us the Birds Eye view of the island! We can’t wait to go again! I 100% recommend this tour!

The kids loved it. The crew was great and let us swap out a scared kid for an excited kid after boarding. The ocean view choice is the cheapest but it is a 3 minute ride. Very short for $39 per person. They do offer discounts on site for upgrades.

"A must-do when in HHI"

FANTASTIC time! What a great way to see HHI! Ive always wanted to see HHI from above and it was amazing and so much fun. It was our first time in a chopper. We weren’t nervous at all. We did the monkey safari tour and it was worth every penny. We were fortunate enough to see monkeys (huge!!), an eagle, and 2 dolphins. If you’re thinking about doing this while in HHI, just do it! You won’t regret it. Adam was a knowledgeable tour guide and excellent pilot. Well done

5 out of 5! The online reservation experience was easy to follow, and the overall experience was great. We opted for a short ride due to rainy/cloudy weather, but I wish we had booked the Explorer. Adam was great and detailed. This was our son's first time up, and he is looking forward to returning. Professional and great atmosphere! Highly recommend!!!
