I have always wanted to fly in a helicopter. Our recent trip to Hawaii seemed to be the perfect time to do so. After much research, I chose Mauna Loa. They had a great safety record and wonderful reviews online. Their office is an easy walk from the pier. They had provided excellent directions and we found them easily. There's... More

Excellent tour, amazing views, professional and helpful staff (pilot Caleb was an expert pilot, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, friendly, funny), tip-top helicopters. A life experience, not to be missed! More

A great experience and well worth the little extra to go doors off. Their office was a little hard to find, as the ship usually deals with another helicopter service, but go with this one which is a 10 minute walk from the ship.The pilot was fantastic, he reduced speed, and held position so that I could lean over to...

We did a day trip to Kauai and chose Mauna Loa Helicopters to show us the island. It was expensive but totally worthy. It was our first helicopter trip and we choose the doors-off option.

Not once was I nervous or scared and I am afraid of heights. Our pilot was fantastic. He definitely follows safe air practices by checking out the helicopter each... More

This is a great experience which I never would miss it. From the 1st mail until the last word we had an excellent helpful and friendly service from all staff. The tour was absolutely amazing and at the end we had no words..... The pilot explain us all interesting places knew all about this island and we had an amazing... More

We had a fantastic tour of the island. Caleb was a great pilot, and we were able to see all parts of the island. Flying over the canyons and into the crater were amazing parts of the trip. This was our first helicopter tour, so we can't compare to other operators, but we would recommend Mauna Loa. As others have... More
