We just recently returned (Nov 2009) from a wonderful vacation on Hawaii's Big Island. The helicopter tour was one of the main events and Safari did NOT disappoint! Our pilot was very familiar with the Hilo area. We got close enough to the volcanoes to get great footage and it was unbelievable! The folks at Safari were professional and gave... more

This is the best way to see the island of Kauai! Our guide and pilot were great, and very knowledgeable about the island. Don't miss this opportunity to get a birds' eye view of paradise! more

my wife and I flew with Safari helicopters in August 2009. Not only was the trip an experience of a lifetime but the staff of Tammy, Keith and captain Richard were probably the most friendly and helpful people we met on our month long tour. I would have absolutely no hesitation in highly recommending this company. Paul (London) more

We experienced the most awesome helicopter ride in August 09 with Safari. I never dreamed I would ever get in one.....I am so afraid of heights and suffer from motion sickness. After much persuasion by my 15 yr old son, I agreed. It was the most incredible experience ever! The Safari staff are all wonderful. Our pilot, Paul was so... more

We had an amazing ride around Kauai with Safari Helicopters. Making a reservation was easy and everyone was helpful,courteous and smiling. Our pilot was professional and narrated the trip with great details so that we knew what to look for. I was somewhat uneasy thinking it would be a bumpy ride but it was so smooth. Thanks for making our... more

We took this tour April 2008. The tour and the staff was great. My complaint is the level of comfot inside of the helicopter. It is uncomfortable four 4 adults of averge size to sit in the back seat. I can only imagine if you have larger people! I am unsure of the front b/c i have never sat there.... more

My son and I took this flight over Kauai as part of my 60th birthday celebration. I cannot praise the staff enough. We booked in the morning for an afternoon flight and everyone was just so friendly, and funny. Our flight was in a helicopter with doors - there is no way I'd fly without the protection a door gives.... more

We visited Kauai our honeymoon in July 2008. This was our favorite activity from our trip. The staff was very friendly, and we felt well taken care of. The original day we were to go was pretty windy- not unsafe, but it would have provided a bumpier ride. They asked who would like to go up and who would like... more

We took the Eco Tour, which stopped and provided an opportunity to meet and talk with one of the conservationists whose family owns significant areas of the island. That was interesting and enlightening, but the highlight was the flight into parts of the island that are inaccessible otherwise. We toured the whole island and went into canyons see waterfalls up... more

We visited Kauai for the visit time in July of 2009. After researching several helicopter tour companies, we decided on Safari Helicopters. This company was excellent, and the helicopter tour was the highlight of our Kauai trip. They have a perfect flying record (no fatalities) and exceeded our expectations in every way! Be sure to order the DVD of your... more
