The world is talking about Blue Hawaiian Helicopters. See why!

My second Blue Hawaiian experience...like last time it was great! Our pilot Kaj was great and the customer service from everyone was excellent. We did the waterfall stop, but due to weather had some changes and ended up going on a shorter flight, but made the stop at the waterfall...well worth it in my opinion. Highly recommend!

Highlight of our trip!

Great tour!! Would recommend.

It was my first helicopter ride. It was beautiful and fun! Our pilot, Marcus, was informative and friendly. Also, my mom and step dad needed assistance on and off the helicopter, the staff were patient, helpful, and friendly.

Totally awesome pilot, and ride. Learned so much about the Hawaiian islands. Service was very professional and awesome.

NORTH SHORE & WATERFALL SWIM ADVENTURE

North Shore & Waterfall Swim Adventure : Can’t get enough of Oahu? This tour is perfect to get to know and falling deeply in love with this wonderful island.  For me, this place is ideal for those who simply love everything about nature. A scenic shore view, a glimpse of Mokuauia Islet, a lunch plate with Hawaiian shave ice, and the sight of green sea turtles are among the few things that you will experience in this tour.

The highlight for sure is the opportunity to bathe under a pristine waterfall in the forest after a short walk. Everything is included on this Oahu tour from pick-up from Waikiki and the drop-off, fees, and lunch were so convenient.

THE FOUR MOST POPULAR OAHU TOURS

• Doors-Off Oahu Helicopter Flight Tour : My number one recommendation is to do a heli-flight (doors off) and be blown away when you see Oahu from the air.

• Eco-Friendly Dolphin and Snorkel Tour : One of the best experiences I had on Oahu was swimming with the beautiful spinner dolphins on this exact tour.
• Turtle Canyon Snorkel Cruise by Catamaran : The number 1 MOST POPULAR snorkel tour on Oahu. GUARANTEED Turtles!

What are my favorite pieces of travel gear?

There are four pieces of gear that I simply never travel without. These are four items that I using right now and this list gets updated every year! Here are my travel essentials.

• Packing Cube Set : Once you cube you’ll never go back. Organize your clothes within your luggage with these smart mesh containers. It will revolutionize your packing.
• Quick-Dry Towel : A quick-dry towel is a must for travelers. It hardly takes up any room and dries in seconds.
• Travel Wallet : Keep your passport, wallet, and vaccine card safe as well as any forms and important documents you need to store.
• Grayl GeoPress Water Filter Bottle : I’ve used this for three years. It filters your water with one press and you can drink directly from it. Never buy a plastic water bottle again!
