Our Pilot Arron was awesome and had plenty of bad dad jokes and we helped him along with more and we all had a great time while enjoying the beautiful views. The ride was fairly smooth 95% of the time and when it was going to be bumpy Arron let us know it was coming ahead of time. The staff before and after the ride were also very polite and helpful. We couldn’t of had a better time IMO.

What a brilliant trip from start to finish, a big tick off the bucket list.
Arron was our pilot he was thoroughly professional in his preparation for the flight and the safety briefing.
His guided commentary during the trip was brilliant along with some of his anecdotes.
We were sat in two of the three back seats, don't worry you can see just fine from there you don't miss a thing, Arron made sure of that as he would swivel the chopper around to give both sides the chance to view points of interest (and there was plenty).
We got some excellent photos from the trip and one with Arron as well to remind us of a great trip in years to come.
We thoroughly recommend this trip and Maverick helicopters

What an extraordinary helicopter tour of Maui and Molokai!! Our pilot Tone was a great educator, fully knowledgeable of the history and culture of both islands and extremely capable and safe as a professional pilot and tour guide. It was truly extraordinary experience to be able to see such extravagant parts of God‘s creation on both islands, seeing things that so few people ever get to experience. The beauty, the thrill, and the great exhilaration was only exceeded by the professionalism of the crew both on the ground and in the air. Great value, great team, great experience!

Amazing! Exhilarating! A highlight of our trip and we would recommend to anyone.
The terrain is out of this world and a helicopter is the only way to experience some of these locations.
Molokai is truly a gem and we are glad to have seen it. The sea cliff size was hard to comprehend and majestic.
The pilot and aircraft felt extremely competent and safe.

This was a highlight of our trip to Maui! Very smooth operation, from booking, to confirming, to check in, and the flight itself. Our pilot Jake was so great, talking to us, answers our questions and teaching us things about the island. The cliffs of Molokai alone are worth this adventure! Add on all the waterfalls, the coral reef, the lush nature preserve, and its a must do. We even got to see whales from above- what a treat! My daughter is getting ready to start flight school next fall and Jake was so great about teaching her some things and giving her tips going forward. The helicopter itself was clean and comfortable with HUGE windows. I don't think there was a bad spot to sit with the window sizes and also the pilot made sure he flew around the sights on both sides so everyone could see. It was such a great experience!

We are thrilled you had an amazing experience and got to witness all the beautiful scenery Maui and Molokai have to offer. We wish your daughter the best of luck as she begins flight school next fall and are happy to hear that our Chief Pilot, Jake, was able to give her a few words of wisdom. Thank you for choosing Maverick Helicopters for your excursion!

My husband took a flight on March 10. Even though I did not go on the ride, I was very impressed with the pre-flight time spent by the pilot, Cody, to give thorough safety instructions. This is something lacking with other helicopter tours. My husband was ecstatic with the views, especially seeing the "Jurassic Park" scenery and close-up views of the whales...much closer than we had seen on our boat tour. He complimented Cody for circling around the whales and taking care that all of the occupants could get a good view of everything. Our concierge at the hotel recommended the Molokai and Maui tour as opposed to the other island views. However I booked the flight directly by phone and received a great price. The helicopter model used by Majestic also gets great reviews for its large windows. My husband thought it was one of the best helicopter rides he has taken. Tip: don't forget sunglasses and wear dark clothing for photo-taking as white will reflect off the windows. A highly recommended experience!

Excellent tour with spectacular views of both islands.
Our pilot Felix was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, and went out of his way to ensure that the group thoroughly enjoyed the trip. We felt in safe hands even when the ride got a bit bumpy going through the valleys, as he talked to us and explained what was happening.
Would highly recommend the tour and the operator.

There should be a significant discount if you are sitting in the back right side of the helicopter. Not the same experience as everyone else. Horrible waste of money! My fiancé was on the left side of the helicopter so we were also separated from each other. At least he had an amazing experience.

Safety was my number 1 concern as my 11 year old twin boys (1 with Down Syndrome), my husband and father in law would be on this tour. I booked through Maui Helicopter tours and had asked a bunch of safety questions regarding my child before booking. They recommended the "Maverick". I looked into Maverick's safety ratings and that is why I booked with them. From beginning to end my sons safety was not an issue. He was actually the last to load and pilot Tone watched out for him.
Tone was an excellent Pilot and the men had a WONDERFUL time. They said the tour was amazing. My other son is quite chatty and he even said he was speechless for at least 15 mins during the tour.

Only certain helicopter tour groups do the doors-off option, and this group doesn't seem to offer that option.
