Volcanoes are awesome! - This was sooooo cool. Flying over an active volcano is definitely one of the best travel experiences I've ever had.

Awesome ride if you want to see a volcano 🌋 - Once in a lifetime chance to see an erupting volcano! The pilot circled the volcano from multiple angles so everyone seated inside got a great view of the flowing lava. The staff was great. Thanks for the ride!

Once in a lifetime - Friendly pilot. This tour was a once in a lifetime experience. We had never been in a helicopter or close to a volcano. Both were impactful.

Unforgettable volcano eruption watching experience - Very good experience to watch the volcano eruption directly. The pilot is very experienced and route is well designed.

Sort of disappointing - The entire tour lasted maybe 30 minutes, even though it was advertised as an hour tour. The pilot did a good job showing us the volcanoes, but it would have been nice to fly over more of the area. For over $500/person, I expected to see a lot more. It was just kind of … meh. Also, it started raining—nobody’s fault—so it was hard to see out the windows in front of the helicopter.
