The Complete Oahu Helicopter Tour Features

Bluehawaiian The Complete Oahu Helicopter Diamond Head And Hotels X

Diamond Head

In Hawaiian, Diamond Head is called Lēʻahi, which translates to “Brow of the Tuna”. This crater has a deep history, from the 19th century when British sailors thought they discovered diamonds on the slopes, to WWII when it was used as a strategic military lookout and even today, where it is known as a popular lookout and hiking destination.

Bluehawaiian The Complete Oahu Helicopter Sacred Falls Above X

Sacred Falls

This amazing and beautiful waterfall has actually been closed to the public for hiking since 1999 after a huge rockfall caused the trail to become unsafe. Now, if you choose to hike the trail and are caught you will need to pay a hefty fine. Luckily, helicopter tours to Sacred Falls are not restricted in any way, which means you can still enjoy views of this stunning waterfall from the air.

On top of the memories you will forge on this incredible flight, for a small charge we will also provide you with a high definition recording of the experience so you can relive the excitement all over again and show your friends and family what you witnessed during your stay in Hawaiʻi.

Views Of The Whole Island

Oʻahu is a beautiful island, and it is only natural to want to see everything it has to offer while you are there. However, the island is difficult to navigate on the ground, with too many hard to reach or otherwise unreachable locations. Instead of dealing with the hassle of getting around these issues, and without the disappointment of giving up on seeing much of the island, take to the skies and soar over every obstacle.

From the air, the whole island is yours to drink in. Stunning beaches, vibrant jungles, and colorful reefs are all yours to enjoy from comfort and safety.

Oʻahu is known for being the most densely populated Hawaiian island, but it’s also one of the smallest at only 597 square miles, which means you can fly over all the major sites in just over an hour. Upon takeoff, you will enjoy immediate aerial views of bustling downtown Honolulu before heading over Pearl Harbor to explore the historical sites. After circling Pearl Harbor, your pilot will do a flyover of Diamond Head, the massive volcanic crater that overlooks the city and the coast around Kāneʻohe Bay.

From there, your pilot will fly over some of the wildest parts of O'ahu, such as the Nuʻuanu Rainforest, Sacred Falls, the surf breaks of the North Shore, and much, much more. As you round the opposite side of the island, prepare to experience amazing views of the sprawling grounds of the Dole Plantation and the distant peaks of the Waiʻanae Mountains before heading back towards the airport.

Be sure to arrive at the Honolulu Airport 30 minutes before your scheduled departure time to check in for the flight and meet your pilot.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is Your Weather Policy?

Weather in Hawai'i is unlike weather in other parts of the world. We have isolated, passing showers over the windward side of each island throughout the entire day. Weather forecasters usually give a daily report of rain; this is normal Hawai'i weather—what creates our beautiful waterfalls and rainbows—and should not adversely affect your tour. Our pilots have access to the latest updates on the local weather conditions and make all flight decisions. BHH pilots use the latest technology to ensure a safe and beautiful tour. If we have to cancel your tour due to weather, we will only do so on the day of the tour, typically very near to your flight time when the forecast is most accurate. If that happens, we would love to reschedule your flight, but if you are unable to, there is absolutely no penalty to you, and you will receive a 100% refund.
Do You Make A Video Of Our Actual Tour? How Long Is It?

Every flight is captured in high-quality video. Each helicopter is equipped with four cameras; three external and one in the cabin. The video recording begins during the boarding process. On the video, you'll most likely first see yourself as you approach the aircraft for boarding. To orchestrate the most interesting video, the pilot chooses between the forward, side or internal camera as the flight progresses. The cabin camera, for example, usually shows you right after lift-off as it is so much fun to capture our guests’ expressions of amazement. The recording is continuous until landing and includes digital quality music chosen to complement the changing scenery, plus all the pilot's narration. The video is available for purchase right after you return from your flight.
Are We Guaranteed To See All Of The Sights Mentioned In Your Tour Descriptions?

The points of interest mentioned in our tour descriptions are highlights of the tour, which we always do our best to show you depending on wind and weather. On the Big Island, areas of volcanic activity are constantly shifting, as are the areas of waterfalls on every island. Each tour is unique in that we'll show you the best currently available scenery while also trying to accommodate all of your special requests within the generally allotted time.

What Can I Do To Make Sure I Have A Comfortable And Enjoyable Experience?

Wear solid dark-colored clothing. Our helicopters are temperature controlled so dress comfortably but wear dark clothing. This will cause less reflection in the windows to allow a clear view of all the sights. It will also allow you to take better photos and video without clothing items or light-colored logos or patterns from your clothing reflecting in the photos that you and other guests would like to take of the magnificent scenery. Hats are not allowed to be worn around the helicopters as they can fly up into the rotors and damage the aircraft. We will be happy to hold any hats for you until you return from your tour. If your tour includes a landing, we recommend closed-toed shoes such as athletic shoes. The ground at our remote landing sites can be uneven and sometimes a bit wet. At some landing sites there is a chance to walk around and get the best angle for your photos and videos so closed-toed shoes are best in these remote locations. Also, remember to bring a sweater in case it's chilly. Do not go SCUBA diving within 24 hours or SNUBA 12 hours prior to your tour. You may snorkel or swim prior to your tour and there is no risk in SCUBA or SNUBA after your helicopter tour Bring your camera or cell phone (on airplane mode) to take photos and video of your tour. Even if you plan to purchase our inflight video, you will not want to miss an opportunity to save these memories. Arrive on time to check in. This will make your whole tour experience go more smoothly as we do need to complete a required safety briefing and prepare each passenger prior to the tour. Even if you are rescheduled due to weather you will need to check in 45 minutes prior to your tour. If you are not sure of the drive time to the heliport where your tour is scheduled to depart please call 1.800.745.2583 and we will be happy to help. Allow adequate time for the full experience. Weather and other factors can sometimes effect the tour take off and return times so you will not want to schedule another activity immediately following your tour or too close to your departing flight. Allow a little cushion. Also, most guests like to spend a few minutes taking a photo with the pilot in front of the helicopter, checking out the gift store and purchasing their inflight video so you won’t want to rush off. Relax and enjoy your total experience.
Do You Recommend Taking Anti-Motion Sickness Medication?

If you are particularly prone to motion sickness, taking a precautionary anti-motion sickness medication is a good idea. However, our flights are very smooth and turns are slow and gentle. This is a professional scenic tour, not a thrill ride. Most people do not experience motion sickness and do not need an anti-motion sickness medication.
When Is The Best Time To Fly?

We suggest that you book your helicopter flight prior to arrival in Hawai'i. This assures you of a tour time that fits into your vacation plans. It’s also wise to book your tour for the early part of your stay. That way if your pilot determines that weather conditions on a particular day are not optimal for a tour, you will have some options for re-scheduling. As far as the best time of day for a helicopter tour, you should primarily consider your personal schedule. Most of the time we are blessed with beautiful weather in Hawaii and the time of day, whether it be morning or afternoon, will make no difference. If we happen to have a rainy weather pattern the pilot will consult weather reports and other pilots who have been flying to determine if we can operate a good tour. Blue Hawaiian does not want to take our guests on a flight unless we are reasonably certain we can give you an excellent experience.
Will We Be The Only Ones In The Helicopter? How Is Seating Arranged?

Unless you charter the complete helicopter you will be sharing the flight with other guests. We try to seat couples and families side-by-side as much as possible. We cannot guarantee particular seating as it is often dictated by our FAA approved “weight and balance” program. However, visibility from every seat is excellent in both our A-Stars and Eco-Stars, since there are no cabin partitions that would block part of the view as is the case on other types of helicopters. Please note: tours from Maui, Waikoloa and Hilo operate with both A-Stars and Eco-Stars; tours from Kaua'i and O'ahu utilize the Eco-Star exclusively. There is a comparison seating diagram for these aircraft available on each individual island page.
Can I Take A Tour If I Use A Wheelchair?

All of our bases are wheelchair accessible and ADA compliant. Each base also has a custom built chair lift to assist passengers into the helicopter safely and comfortably. Our chair lifts are able to accommodate passengers up to 250 lbs.
Can I Reserve Front Row Seats?

Combined front row seat weight must be under 470 lbs and individual passenger weights must be 240 lbs. Should actual weights during check-in exceed any of these limits guests will be accommodated in other seats and a refund will be made for the premium upgrade fee. Front row passengers must occupy their own seats and must be able to refrain from interfering with the pilot and instrumentation. At least one of the front seat occupants must be 15 years of age or older and capable of performing emergency aircraft egress procedures. Lap children cannot be accommodated in the front row. In the event of an emergency front row passengers must be able to receive instructions in English and be physically capable of operating exit doors. Our chair lifts are only able to access the rear row of seats therefore guests requiring a chair lift to board the helicopter cannot be accommodated in the front row.
