Overview

This Kauai airplane tour lasts 65 minutes and flies over several notable locations on the island. Passengers board one of two GA-8 Airvans, each seating six guests, with every seat positioned at a large bubble window for clear views. The flight proceeds slowly to allow for optimal sightseeing and photography. Professional pilots provide narration throughout the tour, identifying key sights. The route includes the Na Pali Coast State Park, known for its high sea cliffs, narrow valleys, streams, and waterfalls. Next, the plane passes over Mount Waialeale, a shield volcano and one of the rainiest spots on earth. The tour continues to Waimea Canyon State Park, often called the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. Then the flight goes over Wailua Falls, a 173-foot waterfall near Lihue, followed by Hanalei Bay, which features nearly two miles of beach surrounded by mountains. The final notable sight is Manawaiopuna Falls, also known as Jurassic Park Falls, a 400-foot waterfall located in Hanapepe Valley and featured in the film Jurassic Park. Noise reduction headsets with voice-activated microphones are provided for all guests to communicate with the pilot. Local taxes are included in the tour price. Gratuities and hotel transfers are not included. Guests must check in 30 minutes before the tour and provide individual names, weights, and contact information at booking.
