100% recommend this experience to anybody. Amazing experience, not many things can top this! Really easy and a low pressure environment to learn and get the basic fundamentals of how to fly a gyrocopter. Sightseeing was also a great add on with the instruction. A beautiful day made for some amazing views! Caylon was so informative, and the knowledge about his gyrocopter and them in general was very valuable.

A completely unreal experience! I loved every minute of it. Caylon was very knowledgeable and showed me a unique view of Kona and the coast. We saw some dolphins in the water. Caylon demonstrated some of the unique maneuvers the gyro can perform all done safely and professionally. I would give more than 5 stars if I could. I can’t recommend this enough. I also booked a flight for my dad for his birthday. I could tell ge enjoyed it as much as I did. He would also give it 5 stars if he reviewed things on Google. The next time I am in Kona, I would absolutely do it again.

Hands down one of the coolest experiences I’ve had in the sky! This was my first time in a gyro and it did not disappoint. I went for the experience not the instruction so I was able to appreciate the details and view without distractions. Caylon is an excellent instructor! he kept me informed every step of the way, with a very thorough breakdown of what to expect. I highly recommend this experience even if you’re not interested in learning how to fly one. There’s something about flying around without a roof and doors that is exhilarating!

Super COOL!! This was absolutely one of the best and most fun things that I have done. Got to fly a Gyrocopter was amazing and so smooth. Caylon was a great pilot/guide who showed and explained everything about how a gyro works. He is a real pro who knows everything about his gyro and makes you feel safe. The best part was that I was also able to fly the gyro for a good part of the trip which was amazing. I will admit I was both scared and excited to fly but a gyrocopter is so relaxing and smooth that you never realize that you are 4500 feet in the air in an open cockpit in a very small vehicle. I will also share that the takeoff and landings were incredible. To sum up - to fly over the Kona coast in a gyrocopter and see a lot of things from the air that you wouldn’t usually see was absolutely cool and once in a lifetime. I highly recommend this and now want to buy a gyro (don’t tell my wife). Thanks Caylon!!

Super awesome experience. Caylon is super knowledgeable and methodical on the technical side of the experience, but just the whole open cockpit flying experience as a whole: amazing! Whether you’re just wondering what a gyrocopter is, or want to learn to pilot one yourself, this is one of the best gateways into the aircraft type.

Absolutely incredible experience. Besides skydiving this is the coolest ways to see the island. Fly Gyros Hawaii is hands-down one of the most unique and memorable aviation activities I’ve ever done. This isn’t just a sightseeing ride—you are genuinely flying the aircraft with a highly professional and calm instructor. The gyroplane is an amazing platform: stable, responsive, and perfectly suited for coastal flying. The views along the Kona coastline are unreal—lava fields, cliffs, open ocean, whales, and dolphins—and the perspective you get from a gyro is unlike helicopters or fixed-wing aircraft. You feel connected to the air and the environment in a way that’s hard to describe. Safety, professionalism, and instruction quality were top-notch from start to finish. Pre-flight briefing was thorough, communication in the air was clear, and everything felt very well run. Whether you’re an aviation enthusiast or someone with zero flight experience, this is an outstanding experience. If you’re on the Big Island and want something truly special—do this. I would 100% fly with them again.

Best way to see the island for sure! Also Caylon is an excellent instructor if you wish to learn how to fly a gyrocopter ! You will love it!

I cried the whole time it’s so beautiful

Caylon is a pristine combination of fun and professional when it comes to the art of flight! The gyro experience is truly incomparable to anything else. I got to see and feel West Hawaii like I was James Bond, safely soaring over oceanic cliffside landscapes and gliding the air channel SO smoothly. When we took off from KOA, it was definitely a little windy but once we were cruising it was unnoticeable in the stability/smoothness of the ride. Gyro’s are especially fun when you get to experience the weightlessness of cutting the engine and feeling like you’re floating in a bubble in the sky without the risk of unsafe landing. If you’re looking for an exhilarating flight with highly skilled & experienced professionals behind the operation, Fly Gyros Hawaii is the place to go! Unforgettable time and I would highly recommend making this a bucket list item for all adventurous folks 🙂 Fun fact: Caylon is also an incredibly skilled and epic skydiving instructor and if you show enough interest you may just be convinced to give that a try too. Can’t give enough praises for the talents on board here!

UNREAL. ABSOLUTELY UNREAL. Flying in the red gyroplane with Caylon was hands down one of the most epic things I’ve ever done. It’s straight-up a motorcycle in the sky—open, fast, smooth, and insanely fun. The moment we lifted off I knew this was something special. Caylon is an absolute pro: insanely knowledgeable, calm, and effortlessly cool the entire time. He explains everything clearly and makes you feel 100% confident while doing something that feels totally next-level. The views are jaw-dropping, the freedom is unmatched, and the sensation of flight is impossible to describe. This wasn’t just a flight—it was a life-changing experience. If you’re even remotely considering it, stop thinking and do it. Easily one of the coolest experiences on the island.
