Beautiful, exciting and worth the cost This was a beautiful experience with Pilot Kirk. He was highly educated on the area and piloting and made our trip. We recommend taking this tour. All the staff at Air Maui are pleasant and helpful. A must do!!

Une expérience absolument incroyable avec Maui Helicopters ! Nous avons choisi le tour Oceanfront, et c’était tout simplement magique. Les paysages vus depuis l’hélicoptère sont à couper le souffle : entre l’océan, les falaises et les vallées de Maui, on en prend plein les yeux du début à la fin. Le vol était très agréable et l’atterrissage nous a permis de profiter encore davantage de ce cadre exceptionnel pendant quelques minutes. C’était vraiment un moment hors du temps. L’équipe était professionnelle, sympathique et rassurante. Une expérience que nous recommandons à 100 % si vous visitez Maui.

10000/10 Experience! I personally pushed for this tour for my family of 4 (me included) because I had seen so many great reviews. Richie did not disappoint my parents were shocked by the views and we heard so many stories from Richie's life and family! Oh and I know it's a 7-person helicopter (with the pilot) but they gave us 2 seats that were at the end (party of 4) and the other party (party of 2) had one end seat and they were seated in front. We all had great views my parents were in the middle and they loved it! They actually appreciated being blocked from the wind so do not let that deter you! 10000/10 recommend this tour! I know it's pricey but it's so worth it! Trust me you will remember this for the rest of your life!

You only live once - do the tour! Our Air Maui doors-off helicopter tour was an incredible experience! The staff provided exceptional service from start to finish, and our pilot, Richie, was amazing. He shared tons of interesting details along the way and kept us laughing with his dad jokes. I did get motion sick, but thankfully never got sick enough to throw up. Our only disappointment was that the tour video didn’t work that day due to the weather. Overall, an unforgettable experience and absolutely worth doing!

Nathan was an excellent captain! We did the doors off tour and paid for the front seats which was worth the extra cost. Best travel experience I’ve ever done in my life.

Great way to say goodbye and thank you Maui We ended our once in a lifetime 40th wedding anniversary trip to Maui with a complete island tour on Air Maui. Cameron was a great pilot, and the entire experience was a magnificent way to say goodbye and thank you Maui. The video we purchased of the flight afterwards is a wonderful keepsake we are still watching. To borrow Cameron's analogy, it is like a magic carpet ride over some of the most breathtaking scenery you can imagine. Thank you Air Maui.

My first time riding in a helicopter was with Air Maui Helicopter Tours and it was an amazing experience. It went very smooth and there was no weird feeling since I am afraid of heights. The plane went up and landed smoothly without a stomach dropping feeling. We were instructed to wear headphones that blocked the helicopter sounds and listen to the tour guide. He explained and told us what we were looking at. We also had to share the helicopter with another couple. The helicopter had a front row for the pilot and assistant. Then after that there were two rows for tourists. I wished the tour was private and only for my group but then that would have been more money. The views were so cool! I got to see the floor and land shrinking and all the houses small like lines when I was up in the sky. The ocean looked so clean and blue! We also got to fly above mountains. There was so much grass everywhere. I got to take a lot of pictures. The bad thing was that the window of the plane had a reflection from the sun so my pictures got reflections. The whole tour was kind of short. We got to purchase a picture next to the helicopter as a memento. I had to pay for the picture and it was pricey. They framed the picture in a thick folding pcard

Friendly staff. The Pilot Nathan was great. Ground/office staff were helpful. Doors off tour was a ton of fun. Be ready for a lot of air in the cabin pushing you inwards of the cabin. You can tip the pilots with Venmo which is convenient.

PERFECT TOUR EXPERIENCE! Our Complete Island Air Maui Helicopter tour was the Highlight of our Maui Vacation to celebrate our 45th Wedding Anniversary! It was worth every penny!! From being able to call when scheduling to the wonderful staff on ground and Pilot. Thank-you all for a fantastic tour day! Dylan was amazing and we are so excited to review our trip video after we got home. We visited the crater early Sunday a.m. for the sunrise. It was so amazing to see it from the helicopter! The waterfalls oh my goodness that whole site brought tears to our eyes! What a beautiful world God has made! If I had to anything twice at Maui it would be Air Maui Tours. I give the 10 STARS!!

My wife and I have been on four Hawaiian Island helicopter tours (Kauai, Oahu, the Big Island and now Maui) and all four were with different companies, and all were great in their own way. But on this Christmas trip, my wife, daughter, son-in-law and two grandkids selected Maui Air Helicopters for a private tour of West Maui and Molokai, and we are sure glad we did! The office staff was friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. Our Pilot, Captain Kirk (you gotta love that!) was absolutely sensational. I'm a private pilot with a few hours of instruction in helicopters, so I told Kirk to give us a spirited ride. He provided just that, and it was awesome! Even the grandkids loved it! He took us deep into canyons laced with thousand foot waterfalls and verdant sheer walls, gave us a very detailed running history of everything he showed us, and when we sadly had to return to the airport, he set that bird down so gently it wouldn't have cracked an eggshell. A true professional! Just an outstanding experience in every way.

I would give 10stars if it was possible. Air Maui is top notch quality of customer service from checkin to return. Flawless. Dillon was our pilot and I cannot say enough about how informative he was and extremely steady flat flying. We had a doors off 45 min flight. Absolutely incredible.

I was so scared to ride in a helicopter that I originally booked just for my family and added myself last-minute after writing a will (not kidding). We did a doors on tour with Captain Kirk and now I want to go again and go doors off! It was such a beautiful, comfortable, and unforgettable experience. The staff there and the pilot made me feel relaxed the entire time. It was like being on a ride at Disneyland. I highly recommend them and if I'm ever back in Maui, will do it again.

This was a truly magical experience. The 45 minute open door helicopter tour is totally worth it and enough for us. Richie was our pilot and he took us through valleys, waterfalls and sights that can only be accessible by helicopter. I loved the historical facts he would speak about and stories about his family. Dad jokes and all, Richie made our experience truly memorable and the staff at Maui Air were very nice and welcoming (shout out to Kim!). Flying Air Maui with the doors open was totally worth it in my experience! Mahalo Air Maui, especially Richie and Kim!

Received an amazing deal with our hotel and could not resist. I've always wanted to go on a helicopter ride and will definitely want to go again. Choose the 45min ride and it was enough. Our captain was super chill, outgoing and very informative. If you haven't gone on a ride choose air Maui!
