Sunshine Helicopter Company was smooth and enjoyable from beginning to end. Our pilot Connor was AMAZING. Connor was informative about the tour and displayed a calm demeanor which settled any fears or anxiety about the helicopter ride! Highly recommend Sunshine helicopters and have Connor fly you!

Awesome experience. Guide was great and showed us many points of interest. We went over the volcanoes and waterfalls and saw whales. They also take your picture before you get on the helicopter and videotape your trip for a nominal fee. Kind of hard to find the place but once you drive around the development you will need to look for a sign for heliport.
I went for the volcano but loved the coast

The whole experience from start to finish was flawless. An active volcano spewing lava, countless waterfalls cascading hundreds of feet into deep valleys of sheer rock with insane vertical drops, and enormous Volcano mountains are some of the highlights. Worth every penny. Epic. Once in a Lifetime for very few lucky people - vacation highlight. Lifetime memories.
