Our pilot made sure that passengers on both sides had the chance to see each sight before moving from one area to the next. The final part of our trip included flying into spectacular valleys on the northeast part of the island, where we saw countless waterfalls, some of which were over 2000 feet in height. The pilot shared tons of info about Hawaiian culture, farming, volcanos, forests, communities and more. We even flew over the site where lava still actively flows into the ocean through lava tubes. Seeing the red glow of the lava and the massive area of lava flow from the most recent major eruption gave us the chance to appreciate how our earth changes as a result of such phenomena. It was absolutely breathtaking to fly over and around multiple volcanos. The company seems very safety conscious and gave a great pre-flight safety briefing.
I will be recommending them to all of my family and friends who ever travel to the big island.I went on the nearly two hour flight yesterday with my 80+ year old mom. All in all, this is a great company with a great team that truly cares about what they do. He also gave us great recommendations for later like the observatory at the top of the mountain. He took us to the best spots and was also able to show us the lava tress which were really cool. He was a great pilot with a southern Texas accent that was truly comforting for our first helicopter ride. THANK YOU DEREK! Chris was new but never missed a beat. He even returned my hat that I left in the shuttle after we were dropped off. He new everything about the island and even gave us a few recommendations for later on. I can't speak highly enough about both of these two people. Yesterday was our rescheduled day and we couldn't have been happier! Derek was our guide and Chris was our pilot. Our first attempt was rescheduled after bad weather. My Girlfriend and I went to take a Helicopter tour that came highly reccomended by Hilton.
