Discover some of East Maui’s most unique sights on the Hana and Haleakala helicopter tour. Soar thousands of feet above the immense, moon-like crater of Mt. Haleakala—the world's largest dormant volcano! Gaze down at the beautiful Hana Rainforest Preserve on your way to the famous Seven Pools of Oheo Gulch, where bamboo trees line the forest and dozens of waterfalls cascade into the tiered pools below.
From the Alpine-like vistas of upcountry to the lush landscape of the Hana Rainforest Preserve and the rugged beauty of the East Maui shoreline, this Maui helicopter tour will be nothing short of thrilling!

Awesome experience! The waterfalls are just amazing.
-You WILL be sharing the helicopter with others. For the amount of money we paid, I thought my wife and I would have the helicopter to ourselves on our honeymoon. Very disappointing. -The pilot came in before the flight to inform us that there was a change of plans due to low cloud coverage, which happens every day at the same time of day. Why sell a package if you know that you can’t give the customers what they paid for!? With a look of careless empathy, he then said we could reschedule if we wanted to. Basically, take it or leave it. -The flight will not be smooth. There was a lot of turbulence and motion sickness set in quickly. Be prepared and take a double dose of Dramamine if you want to survive. -I would not recommend this for anybody, being that it is not worth the amount of money for a look at a couple waterfalls that may not be running due to lack of rain and a turbulent flight over the dry side of an island. -2 stars because we did fly and we didn’t crash.
We had two families and two copters and we highly recommend this Maui tour. Dereck was particularly great. The pilots made a change of itinerary due to weather choosing a safer route which we appreciated. It was gorgeous, informative and we highly recommend.

Highly recommend the Road to Hana with Helicopter return! —Scott, our tour guide meet us at our car and walked us through the parking process and escorted us inside -The women running the office were super nice and efficient getting us checked in and everything weighed -The safety video was beautiful and thorough -Scott got us settled in the luxury van with really comfortable captain seating; he had chilled water and ginger chews for everyone; he knows this route by heart - tons of stories and photo op warnings… “in twenty seconds in the right, this one portrait, aim up to miss the road barrier” and he’d stop for the shot if allowed! Top notch - he knew everyone’s name right away was entertaining and funny. Bonus, he laughed at all our jokes too! -Lunch was great, we had two opportunities to swim - a waterfall and a black sand beach; he guided us on the safest places to go and on timing -Scott took lots of photos of our group; his trick photography skills are amazing - we now have some of the best personal photos ever! -We meet our pilot at the Hana Airport; Derek stowed our bags and got us onboard and buckled in; he reviewed what was going to happen and how and when to talk to everyone using the hand mics -Derek is a really talented pilot with pure joy for Maui and flight; He has a feature film quality sound track that makes you feel like you are in that film, touring the dramatic landscape, up through the cloud shelf to view remnants of volcanic activity from thousands of years ago -The helicopter itself was top of the line - super comfortable, great open views, minimal vibrations and once we had our headsets on we were fully immersed in Derek’s tour of Maui!
