Sammie was our pilot, and we were fortunate enough that it was just our family on the flight. She made us all feel extremely welcomed and took the time to learn our names, which made our flight that much better. We also all enjoyed the fact that our pilot was an instructor and a female (the world needs more female pilots) With a smaller group it’s easier to be more open and ask more questions about what you’re seeing. No one in our family has ever ridden on a helicopter, but we have all flown and it was awesome!! Planes can only maneuver so much, but helicopters give you a different look and feel of flying. Regardless of where you are sitting you get the opportunity to see all that nature has to offer firsthand. It’s also nice to know that everything was being videoed so you can spend more time looking and less time trying to capture it on your phone. She also was a wealth of knowledge around all things in Hawaii and offered recommendations on additional things for us to see.
Our tour guide was ready and waiting for us at the airport as we landed from the helicopter tour with Sammie. He was extremely welcoming and easily buildings one on one relationships with people. He had a very rich background of experiences which he easily incorporated into all aspects of the tour. From local language, culture, history, nature, driving habits of locals vs. tourists, and stops to get one of a kind eats (shave ice… not shaved ice) we experienced it all. My family was the only group, so we all got to spread out and experience that limo van. We had a beachside lunch overlooking black sand beach and got to experience local foods and stories of the area. We got time to visit the beach and got some great pics within a lava tube. The beach was a little busy, but we still found a spot. He also had a vast knowledge of everything we drove by and experienced. We were also surprised at how smooth the ride was. We had just done the Garden of the Gods a few days before.
Aloha Jessie,
We are so very happy that you all enjoyed your tour with us. I will be sure to let your pilot and guide know of your wonderful email.
Mahalo,
Carmela

David was our driver for the road to Hana and we can’t say enough good things about him. He was very knowledgeable and really made the experience exceptional! He also took great couple photos and was willing to stop for photos. We did venture into the waterfall and the black sand beach so we would recommend swim wear and towels if you are adventurous. Lunch was very good and the helicopter ride back was the icing on the cake!! Over all would rate the experience 10 out of 10.

Despite the horrendous weather forecast; we had an amazing experience with Air Maui. Out pilot transported us to a different world, seemingly untouched by human hands. With a calm and knowledgeable voice, we were given an incredible tour of Molokai and the dormant volcano in West Maui.
Incredible. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Maui.

This is the way to do the Road to Hana. We did the late trip, meeting at the airport at 10:45am. We flew out at 11:30, landing in Hana just after 12. The flight was spectacular and our pilot was knowledgable and personable without being overwhelming.
We landed and met our driver who took us to the park for a great lunch. Our driver was exceptional and we learned a lot on our trip back.
I've done this as drive out and back, but the flight followed by the drive is the way to go.

My wife and I took this Helicopter ride for our honeymoon and it did not disappoint! It was one of the best things that we did on Maui. It was absolutely stunning, we saw so many pretty views of Haleakala and all of its beautiful waterfalls. The cliff side landing was a gorgeous area as well. The staff was great and our pilot was experienced and was very informative during the tour. I would highly recommend booking with Air Maui!

I experienced a scenic flight on Oahu, but the views in Maui were on another level! Here’s a simple outline for reference:
1. Wait for your turn at the Maverick lounge. It was very clean, possibly a new office, and it was great that we could freely use the restrooms.
2. The pilot kindly greeted each guest and provided explanations. He was a very nice pilot.
3. Finally, we took off! The scenery was unlike anything I had ever seen. Maui has more waterfalls than any other island, and there are many places that are hard to reach by car. I was truly amazed by the pilot's skills! Despite guiding us while flying close to the sights and stopping, the flight was incredibly stable!
4. We arrived at the tropical rainforest area! We started with a toast of sparkling wine! It seems they are offering sparkling wine for a limited time, and it really made me feel happy. Surprisingly, Maverick has purchased this vast area of tropical rainforest (laughs). The pilot had extensive knowledge about the plants and pineapples! I respect him for being able to guide us while flying!
5. After taking lots of photos, we departed to return to the office.
That was my scenic flight experience in Maui! I think it's an activity that anyone visiting Maui should definitely try. Next time, I plan to join with my parents. Thank you for the wonderful experience!
オアフ島でも遊覧飛行を体験しましたが、マウイでの景色は別格でした!
簡単な流れを参考までに♪
1.マーベリックのラウンジで順番を待ちます。新しいオフィスなのか、とてもキレイでトイレも自由にいけてよかったです。
2.担当のパイロットさんがそれぞれのお客さんに声をかけて説明をしてくれます。とても優しいパイロットさんでした。
3.いよいよ出発!とにかく見たことのないような景色が続きましす。マウイ島はどの島よりも滝が多く、なかなか車では見に行けない場所も多いようです。パイロットさんの操縦には本当に驚き!近くまで寄ったり、停止したりとガイドをしながらの操縦にも関わらず、本当に安定感あり!
4.熱帯雨林の敷地に到着!スパークリングワインで乾杯でスタート!期間限定でスパークリングワインを提供しているようですが、とっても幸せな気分になりました。熱帯雨林のひろーい敷地はまさかのマーベリックが購入したそうです(笑)草花の説明やパイナップル、とにかくパイロットさんの知識が豊富!操縦しながらガイドまでできるなんて!とにかく尊敬です。
5.たくさん写真を撮ってもらった後にオフィスへ戻るために出発
こんな感じのマウイ島遊覧飛行でした!
マウイ島に来たからには絶対に体験すべきアクティビティだと思います。
今度は両親と一緒に参加しようと思います。楽しい体験をありがとうございました!

Our driver Scottie from Temptation Tours was the best I've ever seen. Kept us engaged the whole ride. Knew everything about the island, people, history. Knew all of the best places to stop, where all of the good and bad bathrooms were down to the minute. Told us when the drive by pic was coming up so that we knew to get our phones/camera ready. Stopped multiple times and took the best video and pics of not only us but something cool on the stop. The wraps at lunch were superb. The captain's chairs in the van were perfect. Flying back with Troy from Maui Air was just as incredible. He played cool music and the ride was smooth. Saw a bunch of the falls and even played a little "chase and ride along" a friend he spotted in an ultralight. Highly recommend this combo. We were back at the hotel by early afternoon! Veltra Tours made it so easy and kept us up to date via email during our trip.

Nice hospitable crew both on ground and in air.
Our helicopter pilot Michael was so nice that he turned around to get a nice snap which we could be in the first flyby. We took our tour during March ( US mainland spring time ).
Great and memorable 1st experience of chopper ride. Since it rained that day we saw so many waterfalls.
Our tour was to fly to the other side of the island and then ride a tour mini van through the mountains/rainforests back to the helipad. Nice Tour guide Scott as he knew the whole island bit by bit of it which gave us many memorable nature spots along the ride. He was very helpful in clicking pics and explaining us about island, people and vegetation

My wife, myself and my sister with her husband were able to get this trip. We were told that normally they like to do this trip with 6 people. We had only four in our group but they still ran the trip. We took the early morning van ride to Hana and the helicopter ride back. You can do this trip either way. We had a brand new GMC custom van, it was great. Greg our driver said that this company only has newer vans. The only thing better than a new van was a very experienced driver. Greg was great, he knew all the places to slow down and where you could get the best pictures. My wife and sister are very much into flowers, Greg was very knowledgeable on the subject. Many years ago I drove this road and I missed so much, having a driver/guide is the best way to to this. I have a commercial driving licence so I can recognize and appreciate a professional driver. Lunch was very good and light, you want that for the helicopter flight back. The pilot, Glenda was very smooth and safety was always a big concern. The helicopter company was Blue Hawaiian, top notch outfit. I could not think of one negative comment or even a constructive criticism. Is it cheap no, is it value for your money yes.

It's taken me several trips to Maui to make it to Hana. Why? The idea of spending all day driving my car on a dangerous road with 54 one-lane bridges and 600+ turns (meaning I couldn't even enjoy the scenery) just didn't appeal. But then someone recommended this tour...Instead of driving yourself on this treacherous road (and trust me, with all the amateurs out there it is treacherous), you ride in a comfortable passenger van with an incredibly knowledgeable and enjoyable guide. Instead of driving 3 hours to Hana and 3 hours back along the same route, you take a helicopter for one of the legs and see breathtaking aerial views of this gorgeous island. The tour is well planned, the meals yummy (even the vegetarian and gluten free options were fantastic), and the people were top notch. My only complaint was waiting almost an hour after check in at the heliport to get going. Otherwise, it was a perfect activity.

We loved our combo (Helicopter/Van) tour of Hana. It is the best way to do it. It is a rather long but beautiful drive to/from Hana so taking a helicopter one way and seeing the sights including Haleakala is best of both worlds. Our guide Scott Ferguson (Scotty) was terrific. He was fun, informative and engaging. The Hana area is so beautiful. Hint: if you plan to swim I suggest you bring reef shoes. This was one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommended!
