Our 5yr old and 3yr old had a great time on our helicopter tour. We recommend this as a wonderful thing to do as a family while visiting the island.

This was the best part of the trip! Brody was a great pilot and he was great telling us about Oahu. We are excited to come back with the rest of our family so they can experience the island from this view. This was a great way to end the trip. Love love loved this!! Highly recommend!
Hey Tracy - Many thanks for the great review. Brodi is a gem, eh? I'm glad you flew with us and thanks again for sharing your comments.

Me and my 9 year old son took this helicopter tour on September 5, 2014 and we had a great experience not only with the tour itself but also with the customer service provided by Makani Kai Helicopters. We really appreciate them accommodating our last minute booking. Pilot Broody was great and also provided a very good narrative of the places that we had seen. Since their shuttles were out at the end of our tour, they actually sent us back to our hotel in cab rather than making us wait for the next shuttle. we will highly recommend Makani Kai Helicopters.

We stayed in Oahu for a week and it wasn't enough time visit all the placed that I had panned. The helicopter tour was a great way to see the entire island within an hour. The pilot talked about all the major points of the island. Especially looking down the Pearl Harbor was an experience that I never forget.

Wow, we had the best time flying with Sandy and felt comfortable the entire time! The view from above is amazing and being in a helicopter is a "must" experience... And this is coming from someone afraid of flying! Great to see the Sacred Waterfall up close, the USS Arizona under water with the oil leak drifting off was unique, and just the mountains and valleys and ocean views are all beyond beautiful! I'd do it again...

This tour is "Spectacular". It was way beyond expectation. The views from above are really breathtaking, and well worth the cost. You will not be disappointed!! This was my first helicopter tour and I couldn't be happier with it:)

Choosing Paradise Helicopters was the best thing I've done while in Hawaii. The staff was courteous and very professional. You knew right away you and your family were in good hands. The ride was superb and worth the money you pay! They don't charge as much as other companies do!!

Absolutely fantastic! Our pilot, Josh, was extremely knowledgeable about Oahu and the sites we flew over. Had the one hour tour and was able to get fantastic photos. Strongly recommended to anyone wanting an informed view from the skies.

The company was very professional. The pilot was very knowledgeable and personable and provided a great narration. We saw 2/3rds of the island and had some exciting moments flying over cliffs and through valleys. Unfortunately, the hull-mounted video camera quit working just 5 minutes into the 45 minute ride. We were certain we wanted to buy the video of our flight and the accompanying narration so we were disappointed that it wasn't going to be possible. The company provided us with a sales DVD that included many of the same sights we experienced, however, the special nature of the video of our flight was lost.

Our first activity of our week on Oahu, and our favorite. Pricey...yes, but exciting. And, it gave perspective to all the things we did later in the week. Our pilot pointed out, as we flew over, where the President usually vacations, where Gilligan's Island was filmed, where Jurrasic Park was filmed, the Marine base, the closed, dangerous falls, the plantations, the North shore and Sunset Beach, the Polynesian Cultural Center, and flew us on the same approach the Japanese took in 1941 across Hickam and Wheeler Fields and down onto Pearl Harbor. Brodie, our pilot is a former Marine stationed on Oahu. He was friendly and very knowledgeable. Brodie spotted two Grey Whales off the North shore, flew out a bit and did some orbits over them so we could all see them. My wife forgot her light jacket, so a ground employee lent his hoodie to her. Absolutely magnificent!
Mr. Hayek,
Thank you very much for your kind words. We're happy that you enjoyed your Doors Off tour and were able to see whales. I hope you managed to get some good pictures while you flew and plan to return to Hawaii soon. Mahalo and aloha,
P.J. O'Reilley,
Makani Kai Helicopters

We went to Hawaii in 2007. We had to go back because my husband didn't get to take a helicopter tour. The helicopter ride was the best part of our 8 day stay in Oahu.

This was my first time ever taking a helicopter trip or tour of any kind. So I was a tad nervous in doing it. But I said to hell with it I am going to do it. And I am sooooo glad that I did. The pictures from high above Honolulu was so worth the money and time I spent being a part of this like once in a life time adventure! Julie my helicopter pilot with Blue Hawaiian was a great professional and very friendly and pointed out all the highlights of our 50 minute tour. Blue Hawaiian was the best and for an extra $25 dollars at the end of your tour you can purchase a DVD of your flight with camera's in and out the helicopter. I had a blast and look at my pictures daily from my helicopter tour. I totally recommend this company and tour for memories of a lifetime! Can't go wrong with Blue Hawaiian at all!!!

I loved the helicopter ride, something I've always wanted to do! I paid the extra $25 for preferred seating, I wouldn't do that again since every seat is a window seat, that was deceiving:( The pilot did a great job explaining what we were seeing, ect. Overall it was great, I would do it again, minus the preferred seating.

Booked this as a wedding gift my my daughter and new son-in-law. They had a wonderful time (original date cancelled due to rain), however re-booked for a different day without difficulty. Their only complaint was a language barrier. It was very difficult to understand the pilot-very strong accent.

From beginning to end, which came too soon, was a delightful ride. Our pilot Julie, made it very informative, very interesting and a delight to be with. She made us feel at ease and wanting us to come back again to do another helicopter tour on some of the other islands, especially the big island.
We both had a wonderful experience, thanks in part to Julie and the staff of Blue Hawaiian. We would definitely recommend this to anyone who really wants to see any of the islands. It's something that we will never forget.
