Amazing Views
sammyc774, September 2026
This trip was amazing. Truly breathtaking views. Our pilot, Ross, was extremely informative and I felt safe the entire time. It was cool to see all over the island. I also applaud the company for pushing forward with the tours even though the hurricane went through a few days ago. Would definitely recommend.

Flight was canceled after...
James_B, September 2026
Flight was canceled after we had waited an hour. They said due to weather conditions and also stated all tours for the next few days would likely be canceled. We saw multiple other agencies doing tours still that day and the next in clear conditions.
Response from the operator · Stephanie M Safari Management offers our deepest apologies for the inconvenience and disappointment you experienced. Please, we would like to hear more.
Please reach out to us at customerservice@safarihelicopters.com with the flight date and time cancelled.

Make sure you can sit in the front
David_F, September 2026
The pilot was very knowledgeable and informative regarding the tour. My biggest complaint is the size and number of passengers crammed into such a small space. If you are sitting in the front you get a very good view. If you are sitting in the back with 3 other passengers I would consider watching a video of the flight over the very uncomfortable seating and viewing arrangements. You can't see out the front because the people are in the way and the side doors and small viewing area out the sides leaves little to be desired. This was not our first helicopter tour. We have been all over the world in many helicopters, but this by far was the worst.
I probably would never have bothered to right this review but for the lack of communication from the company. Twice I messaged them about how many people were on the helicopter and did everyone have a window seat. Never received an answer. After the flight I showed them the messages which by the way were part of the thread of messages that they send regarding arrival time and directions. The response was we must have missed it and offered me a thumb drive of the flight. Pretty dame insulting. It was one of the most uncomfortable and disappointing hours I have spent in a long time. I am an avid photographer and had I known what the situation was going to be I would have definitely looked elsewhere. They need to be more upfront with the information given to there customers.
Response from the operator · Stephanie M Aloha David, Mahalo for taking the time to post this review along with your feedback.
