“We have done one prior helicopter tour in Hawaii with a different provider which we thoroughly enjoyed. Was expecting a similar experience in excitement and sorta thrill ride-ish. Unfortunately this flight was tame and overall slow. We are not hikers so we were hoping to see the parks from above. It wasn't until we were actually on the helicopter did we learn helicopters were not allowed to fly into the national parks so what we toured were public lands. Now the sights were neat and we covered a variety of areas, it just wasn't what we had hoped for. Our pilot was nice and professional with knowledge of the area.…”
