THE MOST EXCITING WAY TO SEE KAUAI
- Lihue, Kauai, Hawaii
Experience a unique perspective of the beautiful and rugged island of Kauai with our doors-off helicopter tour. Given the vast inaccessibility of the island via car, a helicopter tour offers you a chance to see many of Kauai's secluded natural landmarks from the air. Adding to the excitement, this tour is a 'doors off' flight, meaning that the cabin is open to the elements, letting you feel the breeze as you fly over the verdant jungle below. This tour is sure to be one of the highlights of your trip, plus you will be able to take photos that can't be captured anywhere but from the cabin of a helicopter. Seats fill up fast, so be sure to book ahead of time!

Account
Be sure to arrive at the Lihue Airport 30 minutes before your scheduled departure time to check in and receive safety instructions. After takeoff, your pilot will fly over one of Kauai’s most famous natural landmarks which is Waimea Canyon. From there you will get to fly through the pristine jungle of the Hanapepe Valley which will likely remind you of the scenery from the 1993 Steven Speilberg film Jurassic Park. As the tour continues, your pilot will follow the coastline of the Na Pali region to give you exquisite views of the sharp ridges, massive sea cliffs, stunning waterfalls, and hidden valleys found there. As the 45 minute tour comes to an end and weather permitting you will get to see Mount Waialeale, an ancient and dormant shield volcano that is not only covered by incredibly thick vegetation, but sees an average yearly rainfall of 450 inches!
