The Big Island of Hawaii is the largest island in the Hawaiian archipelago—almost as large as all the other islands combined—and bursting with life. Within 4,000 square miles of land, you’ll experience dense tropical rainforests, black-sand beaches, snow-capped peaks, remnants of ancient Hawaiian settlements, and the incredible Kilauea volcano.

Maui is renowned for its unimaginable beauty. Alpine-like forests cover the upcountry slopes of Mt. Haleakala, the world’s largest dormant volcano. The famed “Road to Hana” hugs the coast, white sandy beaches line the shores, and magnificent sea cliffs hover over the blue Pacific. An aerial tour of Maui will quickly reveal why it’s continually been voted “The World’s Best Island.”

The incomparable Na Pali Coast, Waimea Valley (the “Grand Canyon of the Pacific”), and stunning Mount Waiʻaleʻale (the second wettest place on earth), are among Kauai’s incredible wonders that are so remote, they are only accessible by helicopter.

Worth every penny. What a wonderful way to see Volcanos, sandy beaches, beautiful vegetation and lots of waterfalls. Jeff our pilot, was quite informative about what we were viewing and made the tour quite interesting. The place was run professionally and we felt very safe. Definitely a must do adventure in Hawaii.
This was an experience of a lifetime and we had the most amazing time!! Absolutely breathtaking. We were scheduled to go out on Wednesday but the cloud cover at the volcano and waterfalls caused the pilots to cancel and we rescheduled to Friday. But we are so happy we did! Our pilot, Jeff, was awesome!! Thank you so much for the wonderful flight!
This is a thrilling experience. It was my first time in a helicopter as well. They did a great job getting us comfortable with everything that was going to happen. Our pilot (Greg) was stellar. He talked a lot about the area on the way up, but once we hit the great views, he let the landscape do the talking. The entire experience is incredibly well curated. By that, I mean they have a soundtrack that is well timed to the experience and the music swells as the views get better. Truly every moment of this was first rate.
Such an amazing experience! 100% worth it. And Mike was the best pilot ever.
We joined this tour on January 22, 2026. We are a Japanese couple. Markus was truly exceptional. This helicopter tour became one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life because of him. His flying was incredibly smooth and made me feel safe and relaxed the entire time. But what impressed me even more was his narration. He didn't just point out famous places—he shared the history, geography, Hawaiian mythology, military background, local culture, and even stories about daily life on the island in such an engaging and thoughtful way. You could really feel how much he loves Hawaii and enjoys sharing it with people. Every moment felt meaningful and special. The views were breathtaking, but Markus made the experience magical. I'm so grateful I had him as our pilot. Highly, highly recommended. Markus was truly wonderful. This helicopter tour became an unforgettable experience of my life because of him. His piloting was incredibly smooth, and I felt safe and relaxed throughout the flight. But what impressed me even more was his guiding. He didn't just point out famous landmarks; he spoke fascinatingly and thoroughly about Hawaii's history, geography, mythology, military background, local culture, and even the daily life of the island. It was truly clear how much he loves Hawaii and how much he enjoys sharing its charm with others. Every moment felt special and meaningful. The scenery was breathtakingly beautiful, but it was Markus who truly made this experience special. I'm so glad he was our pilot. I wholeheartedly recommend him.
It was an amazing experience and a fabulous way to see the island.
