Traveler Reviews

Great experience. Matt (pilot) and ground staff were knowledgeable and friendly. Tour was amazing, fabulous views of valley, cliffs and waterfalls. It was fun and highly recommend it.

Highly recommend! My husband and I decided to book this tour for our honeymoon and my birthday as a treat. I am absolutely terrified of heights, but am so happy I pushed myself to go. Our pilot Matt made me feel extremely comfortable and was super informative. Check in was great and the staff was so nice!

It was an amazing experience for everyone in the group and definitely the highlight of our vacation. None from our group ever had a helicopter ride experience and Pilot Matt, ground staff Rick took very good care and made us feel very safe throughout the ride. The trip route is very good. It starts by going over kohala peak and then over majestic seacliffs with waterfalls. Then we enter inside a valley to look at a waterfall upclose. overall the tour was breathtaking and definitely recommend it for anyone planning to experience majestic seacliffs.

What a great experience. Matt, our pilot, did a great job and we felt very safe. We had done another helicopter tour here, but door-on. This is a truly different and unique way to see parts of the island that are not normally accessible to tourists. We have lived here for almost 20 years and we will now put this on our visitor "must do" list. The office staff were so helpful and friendly.

My family of four thoroughly enjoyed the new Waimea based "doors off" helo tour of Kohala and the valleys! It was a short drive to the airport from the west side and check in and orientation were super easy and straight forward. The staff were incredibly friendly. Our pilot, Matt, did a great job providing some context of the area as we were flying. Sounds like this is a new option for the company and one of the driving reasons is to give folks more time to explore the amazing valleys and waterfalls on the east side. I couldn't agree more with this logic! I highly recommend this tour to those that are interested in less transit time and more time up close and personal with one of the most interesting areas of the island. Thanks Matt and Paradise team for a wonderful experience!
