Maui Haleakala Helicopter Tour with Road to Hana Sightseeing & Beachside Lunch

Hana and helicopter adventure

Reviewed by: Dave & Yvonne , 2023/10/21

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.

Maui Helicopter Tours with Optional Haleakala Ranch Landing - Blue Hawaiian

Family Reunion Helicopter Tour of Maui

Reviewed by: L. Villines, 2023/01/15

I fly with Blue Hawaiian every time I am in Hawaii and love it. So for our family reunion I treated twelve family members to a complete island tour. Everyone truly enjoyed their flight. The staff worked to accommodate our family and were so kind. The family said it was the best experience they had on the trip. The pilots were very informative about the island. Mahalo for the amazing tour.

Air Maui Helicopter Tour - Haleakala Volcano, Hana Rainforest & Waterfalls

Incredible must do experience in Hawaii

Reviewed by: warrensmithd, 2021/12/26

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.

Maui Haleakala Helicopter Tour with Road to Hana Sightseeing & Beachside Lunch

Great Excursion

Reviewed by: Michael W, 2021/08/28

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.

Haleakala Flight w/cliff side landing.

Reviewed by: Derrick Carrigan, 2021/06/21

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!

Best two guides ever.

Reviewed by: Joe, 2021/06/12

First, we flew to Hanna with a great pilot guide and then turned over to an awesome guide for a van ride back to the heliport. He knew where all the best spots for pictures, views, and waterfalls were. Would do it again in a heartbeat.

Maui Circle Island Helicopter Tour - Soar Over Maui's Best Sights & Attractions

Got alternative route but still was fun

Reviewed by: Ahmad Ok, 2019/09/09

Originally we were supposed to fly around road to Hana, But they said the weather was not helping so we went to West of Maui and the other Island, We still pretty much enjoyed the trip, You get to see places that no man placed a foot on before, The mountains, the waterfalls, the nature, all were amazing to see from above.

I think the Pilot name was Mike, He was really great at getting a super close up to the mountain to a point where its few meters away.

I guess we would never know if this was more fun than the trip over the road to Hana

Blue Hawiian is great

Reviewed by: Steve, 2019/07/21

Our pilot Ken Jones was great. He made us all feel very safe and he was very knowledgeable about the entire island. The pre-flight was very thorough and covered all of our concerns before we boarded the helicopter. We were very lucky with the weather and we saw canyons and peaks that are often inaccessible due to low cloud cover. Highly recommend this company.

Comments from activity operators

Aloha Steve - We appreciate you taking time to send this to us. We'll be sure that Ken gets a copy. We hope you enjoyed your time in the islands and perhaps will visit us again.

Maui Haleakala Helicopter Tour with Road to Hana Sightseeing & Beachside Lunch

Road th Hana plus Helicopter....perfection

Reviewed by: Reggie, 2018/04/06

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.

Reviewed by: Debbie R, 2018/03/17

The helicopter ride is exciting and fun. We saw the shoreline and lots of waterfalls. The Road to Hana can be long so going half-way is better. Our guide was terrific. He showed us all the important things along the way that we never would have seen if we did it on our own.

Maui Haleakala Helicopter Tour with Road to Hana Sightseeing & Beachside Lunch

Maui coast and rainforest experience

Reviewed by: Tej, 2018/03/17

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

Maui Haleakala Helicopter Tour with Road to Hana Sightseeing & Beachside Lunch

Excellent, well worth the money

Reviewed by: Don Henry, 2018/01/07

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.

  • one of the many water falls on the road to hana

  • they is time to swim in one of the many waterfalls

  • Glenda was our pilot back , very good

Maui Haleakala Helicopter Tour with Road to Hana Sightseeing & Beachside Lunch

Awesome tour

Reviewed by: HazenGirl, 2017/10/13

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.

Paid the 100.00 for the seats next to pilot only to find out that with 6 people in aircraft someone would have gotten this seats most likely the grandkids I paid for. They tried to tell me "no it would have depended on weight distribution" which actually meant that for the 100.00 I paid they were willing to forgo safety? On the positive side flight was outstanding pilot informative sight you can only see from

Great trip

Reviewed by: Ladd Bodem, 2017/08/28

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!
