Big Island of Hawaii Helicopter Tours

Our tour guide was a true professional, very kind and very skilled. The helicopter ride was incredibly smooth.

What outstanding experience my wife and I enjoyed with Kona Coast private helicopter tours this afternoon.Our pilot, Sam, was knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. We really enjoyed the time spent with him. We felt very safe and comfortable with him at the controls.What we enjoyed most about our experience was how simple it was to make the reservation, how easy it was to find their office at the airport, and how fun it was to go for a 30 minute helicopter to along the Kona coastline.In addition, this is one of the most affordable helicopter tours we could find. They use a smaller Robinson helicopter that holds the pilot in three people so it’s just you and your significant other. You don’t have to worry about sharing the trip with strangers.In addition, I am 250 pounds and many of the other helicopter tours have a cut off at that weight limit and require you to purchase a second “comfort” seat. This company sets their limited 275 pounds which made it a no-brainer for us.So if you want to go see majestic volcanoes and breathtaking waterfalls at a price that will set you back significantly, this is not the outfit to choose.However, if you just wanna go on an enjoyable helicopter ride and look at the breathtaking coastline of this part of the big end of Hawaii and affordable price than this is the company you want to choose.30 minutes was just right, the price was just right, the scenery was memorable and breathtaking, and we felt very safe and secure every second we were on board this aircraft.

Our Pilot Sam was so awesome. He was easy to talk to and was calming about the trip. We opted to have no doors, despite my fears, it was the best choice. The views were breathtaking and the cool air felt amazing! We were able to capture the most amazing photos.

An amazing experience, Mochi is an excellent pilot, we’re were not worried at all. He was very informative with all the Hawaiian cultures and ways. Definitely recommend

I booked the helicopter tour for my parents so that they could enjoy an aerial view of the Kona coast. My parents speak very little English, but the tour team was very friendly, patient, and accommodating towards them. The helicopter pilot, Abby, was absolutely amazing! She explained all the safety instructions quite clearly and made sure that my parents felt very safe and comfortable during the flight. Her flight was very smooth, and my parents had a wonderful time! They were all smiles when they returned! I would highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to explore the Kona coast from up high.5/5 stars!!

They were very thorough! Explained everything and covered all safety videos. Pilot was very patient and made us feel super comfortable. Highly recommend

Excellent experience and would definitely recommend! Lance our pilot was amazing and the flight was very smooth.

Loved the coast line tour. Christian was very informative with the history of the island! Beautiful views with many shades of blue waters!

Abby was an excellent pilot. Very a smooth and enjoyable ride. I truly loved her tour commentary on the tour. Very concerning of our needs and safety.

Cancelled due to weather but communication was good and reschedule was attempted. Will try again next trip.

Ethan was our guide/pilot and does a great job giving you info as we fly. Being a local pilot he gave some nice insight into certain things we were unaware of, being visitors for years. Thanks for the great memories and banter and have great luck on your next journey. Mauna Loa, and especially Jackie, thank you for checking in with the phone call morning of, and offering a stress free experience by providing a nice, personable interaction

Phillip was an awesome pilot, we had a great time flying with him! Enjoyed the facts he provided and the amazing views!!

What a fun and wonderful experience. We did the doors- on ride out over the ocean. I'm afraid of heights and was really apprehensive about the journey. It was amazing. I wasn't even a little frightened. I think would have even enjoyed it just as much with the doors off. Highly recommend. It's worth the money.

This is a great flight! Short but gorgeous views and an excellent choice for a first time helicopter ride. Also - Meg was a fantastic pilot!!

The ride was great and all the staff were professional and very safety conscious and very friendly! The island from the air is so different to experience.

Our pilot, Ethan, was great! He was very safety conscious and helpful. Many very interesting facts about the island were shared. We flew “doors off” and it was FUN!!! They were very organized and friendly.
