Overview

This 50-minute helicopter flight in Kauai offers a doors-off experience, allowing passengers to feel the wind and hear the natural sounds clearly. The tour begins with a flight over Mt. Waialeale, one of the wettest places on Earth, providing aerial views of its rainforest. It then continues to Waimea Canyon State Park, known for its dry, desert-like terrain. Next, the helicopter flies over the tropical Hanapepe Valley Lookout. The route proceeds to Na Pali Coast State Park, where steep ridges and cliffs drop down to the blue ocean. The flight also includes views of Manawaiopuna Falls, also called Jurassic Park Falls, known for its waterfalls and rainforest scenery featured in the movie Jurassic Park. The helicopter seats six passengers plus one pilot and operates with strict safety measures. Passengers must be at least 10 years old to join, and only those 16 and older can sit in the outside or edge seats. Cameras, GoPros, and cell phones are allowed, with a lanyard provided for one device per person. Weight restrictions apply, and closed-toed shoes or strapped sandals are required. Goggles are provided and must be worn during the flight. Hats, loose items, bags, and sunglasses are not permitted on board. Long hair must be tied back. The tour includes all fees and taxes but does not include any additional optional services. The helicopter is not wheelchair accessible.
