Great ride - Cookie and the rest of the staff is great. Jim our pilot was very professional and had tons of knowledge on the area. Disappointing not getting to go up to the top due to weather conditions but still so much see with all the great coastlines, previous eruptions, macadamia farms and waterfalls.

Excellent experience - Great experience. Would do it again. Beautiful views and the pilot/guide was wonderful. Good views of vents but lava wasn't flowing that day. Still worth the time and money.

Breathtaking experience! Lava and coastline from above - Although we were unable to reach the top of the volcano due to weather conditions, the replacement program was quite fantastic! We really enjoyed flying over the volcanic fields, the Makadamia plantations and over the magnificent, turquoise coast! Thanks to our experienced pilot Jim, who flew very considerately, we were able to enjoy the flight all the time! The information given during the flight by Jim was very instructive for us and questions were also gladly answered. We also have to mention the extremely friendly and cheerful ladies from the ground staff, because they took care of us touchingly and professionally and prepared us for the flight. A warm Mahalo from us for the beautiful experience!!

Don't get squeezed behind pilot - I was in the seat behind pilot, I actually had a mark on my leg from the door handle. 4 people in back seat. My legs actually were in space to the right of the pilots seat. I could not look out. I asked him finally to turn circles so I could see, he kept making left turns. I'm sure the pilot could see on a left turn, not me
