    Andy our pilot was awesome!
    Helen S.

    This helicopter ride was fun for the whole family :) our pilot Andy was great, knowledgeable of the area, fun and made us feel very safe the whole time. We couldn't go over Haleakala due to weather condition, were re-routed towards Molokai which was a bit of a bummer but still great.

    We arrived Maui two days ago & immediately planned to explore Maui in the the shortest time so we took a helicopter tour that was the most recommended & best value in time & budget. We arrived in time & then everything was ready & clear they explained to us the safety procedures and rules which was very helpful. Be sure to remember your seat number it is a must when you get in line to the ride. The receptionist Lu Nae , pilot Christina & the assistant Jennifer were amazing & helpful & funny the brought the sun to owe day Besides the wonderful one of a kind ride that will be remember for the rest of our life as a family celebrating in this Holiday. Trust me you go a head & do it or keep in your bucket list .

    Thanks Sunshine Helicopters for a spectacular experience. Stunning views of Moloka'i and West Maui. A special shoutout to Justice for her friendly customer service skills.

    Great experience, stunning views, awesome team. Everything went smooth and on time. Pilot and ground crew were very professional. I have just couple comments on recorded video footage: 1) Please raise camera to capture little bit more above horizon 2) Please use music that would not trigger copyright violations on YouTube Neither bothers me as I would anyway cut this footage, but someone might want to use it as-is.

    We enjoyed our flight very much! We took the Whisper flight. Spencer was our pilot and he was very knowledgeable & asked often if everyone was ok & comfortable. Afterwards we were directed to a restaurant a few minutes away. I highly recommend Fuego's for din

    High in the mountains!

    I was so close to chickening out and I'm so glad I didn't! It was the best experience I've ever had in HI Christina our pilot was knowledgeable and soooo sweet. There's really no other way to see Maui Maholo!!

    Nothing beats seeing Maui from a birds eye view. We definitely recommend anyone who wants to see the whole island to go on this tour.

    Fantastic trip! Beautiful way to see the island and pilot, John Song, was so awesome. He knows everything about the island and made tge trip so relaxing. Loved it!

    Eric L.

    Amazing experience!! John was an amazing pilot who told us a lot about the islands. Would 100% recommend to everyone, well worth it!!

    Sam M.

    Amazing expert pilot. I love the company and their team that treated us great.

    Would highly recommend Sunshine Helicopters in Maui! We were welcomed by Louann who was friendly and knowledgeable. We did the Maui/Molokai Deluxe Tour and Spencer, our pilot/tour guide did not disappoint. Breathtaking views and plenty of whale sightings. Definitely a highlight of our vacation. Worth every penny.

THAT'S what my wife and I experienced on this utterly stupendous helicopter flight!! From the moment I booked with Jana, who answered all our questions and briefed us before the flight, I knew this was the absolute best helicopter tour in Maui! And Nick with his 20,000 hours and 37 years of flying (20 years in Maui) was safe, professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and fun! I'm a retired Air Force pilot with 22 years of experience. He was absolutely outstanding and made my wife and I feel totally at ease! We saw waterfalls and valleys that are not accessible any other way than a helicopter.

My son who is 10 opted to do doors off and Nick approved because of his maturity level. Doors off is absolutely the way to go but please come prepared in addition to wear in the flight suit it was pretty chilly up there. Being cold was just a small sacrifice to pay for the absolute beautiful creations you will see well up in the aircraft. We chose the road to Hana and what a treat!

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

The staff at the front desk were super kind. Even helped me find a shirt that looked to be out of my size. A quick trip upstairs and there it was. Views were spectacular.

Way too many ownership changes over the years for one to expect quality to still be in the top 5 company goals. I had multiple reservations/flights cancelled for BS reasons and then customer service was terrible every fricken time I called - no idea where the call center is, but it's crap too. The last time, they didn't even bother to process the refund I had called to request in the first place so I had to call back and burn another 30 minutes on the phone to do it all over again. Wasted more than 5 hours of my life between setting up flights with the transport of an animal between the islands and then having to request refunds because they would cancel the flights 24-36 hours in advance for one of a multitude of reasons which was different depending on who I talked to. First it was an "unscheduled maintenance", then it was "staffing", then it was "regular maintenance with no back up plane planned" and finally "weather related" and "unforeseen circumstances". And each and every time, the flights were cancelled more than 24 hours in advance...what in the actual FFF? Over and over again during the course of a week of flights, they'll happily sell you tickets on flights they just continually (planned to) cancel. STOP SELLING TICKETS if you can't actually supply the flights. Get your sh*t together or close up shop. Don't waste your time booking and just avoid the nightmare.
