Great way to start your visit to Kauai
A great flight over Kauai! Our pilot showed us all the highlights of the island....lots of waterfalls, the canyon and the beautiful shorelines. We did this tour on our first day on the island so we got ideas about where we wanted to explore during the remainder os our stay.

View over Kaua
Seeing Kauai from the air is amazing. While it is expensive, it is worth every penny. I'm not going to lie, I find being in a helicopter alittle scary, but everyone should see Kauai like this.

An awe-inspiring experience!
An incredible once in a lifetime experience. Our pilot Duke did an amazing job taking us to spots on Kauai one cannot see by any other means. He was super smooth in the operation of the helicopter and very informative in narrating to us what we were looking at as well as the history of the island. My wife and I both came away awe inspired by the beauty we saw. All of the Blue Hawaiian team at the terminal were super friendly. I highly recommend this tour. It is truly special.

Awesome experience and a must do on the island! Pilot Marshall - 5 stars
Great experience that was made even better by our pilot Marshall. Great way to view the island of Kawai from otherwise inaccessible means.
