Traveler reviews
It was Amazing! If you...
It was Amazing! If you like heights, I would definitely recommend. Steve our pilot was Awesome. My husband and I started our morning with a helicopter tour ride celebrating our 25th Anniversary 💕🌸
This was the highlight of...
This was the highlight of our Hawaii cruise and worth every penny. The views of Kauai, the Na Pali Coast, waterfalls, and canyons were absolutely breathtaking. Our entire family loved it. Our pilot, Steve, was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, professional, and did a wonderful job pointing out landmarks and sharing information throughout the flight. As someone who is nervous about flying, I especially appreciated how calm and confident he was. He completely put me at ease and allowed me to enjoy the experience. My only minor criticism is the check-in process. We were asked to arrive an hour early, but after being weighed and watching a brief safety video, there was a lot of waiting around, and our flight ultimately departed about 30 minutes late. It wasn’t a big enough issue to affect our enjoyment of the tour, but I think the arrival time could be shortened or the communication improved. Overall, this was an unforgettable experience and a true bucket-list activity. We would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Kauai.
What a trip!
Very exciting, indeed! Some of the most spectacular scenery anywhere!! Our pilot was very knowledgeable about the island.
What a eay to see Kauai
