Itinerary

1

Fly along the entire beautiful and amazing Na Pali Coast of Kauai. Every seat is a window seat, and with us you spend more time gazing at the Na Pali Coast than any other air tour.

Duration: 15 minAdmission: NOT_APPLICABLE
2

Only airplanes include the lovely Kipu Kai and the entire Poipu shoreline of Kauai. The helicopters don't have time for this. We see so much more and have ample time for whale watching along the entire Poipu shoreline.

Duration: 15 minAdmission: NOT_APPLICABLE
3

We fly the entire Waimea Canyon and see numerous waterfalls below us. The brown, eroded landscape is in sharp contrast the green of the garden isle seen everywhere else. The "Grand Canyon of the Pacific" is a must see.

Duration: 10 minAdmission: NOT_APPLICABLE

Pass by: Weather permitting we like to fly over this waterfall. It is actually three waterfalls in a line, and one of only 100 you will see on this trip, this one best known for the movie Juraissic Park.

Admission: NOT_APPLICABLE
5

Sometimes called the Crater because it has walls on three sides, this is a beautiful example of abundant waterfalls on Kauai. We love to fly alongside, the waterfalls off the wing tip, a truly amazing experience which we love to share with you.

Duration: 10 minAdmission: NOT_APPLICABLE

Hanalei Bay is one of our largest, and beautiful to see. After passing the bay we fly up Hanalei Valley and the 100's of waterfalls, really ribbons of water gushing down from the sky are on all sides off the wings and underneath the plane, a truly amazing view to behold.

Koa Rules!

Koa was an amazing pilot that provided great narrative for our flight! We elected to go during bumpy conditions and never felt unsafe. Highly recommend!!

Aerial view of entire coastline!

Very cool experience, worth trying! There were only 4 people apart from the pilot in my tour - had a great time! Only issue was that the plane gets warm inside on a hot day.

A Must Do Activity for Kaua'i!!

If you're asking yourself if an air tour is necessary, it truly is to experience Kauai's breathtaking views!! Only 20% of the island is accessible by car. We also went by boat but this was our favorite activity on the island. Why book this over a helicopter? Come to find out you'll get to see more of the island the helicopters can't access. Our pilot was great and gave us lots of info about each area we passed through. We also spotted a whale being accompanied by dolphins which was an amazing bonus.

Amazing experience

Absolutely phenomenal flight over Kauai. Koa did a great job showing and telling us all about the beautifully rich island. We had an unusual sighting of a whale and her calf and he circled back around for us to get a better view. He told us about so many different aspects of the island from its culture, housing, agriculture, and geological history. Our adult children said it was one of the best experiences they've ever had. Truly worth it.
