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.”

Oahu is the cultural heart of the Hawaiian Islands, offering an eclectic mix of tradition, Hawaiian history, and stunning natural beauty. Beyond Waikiki Beach, the historic sights of Pearl Harbor and the cosmopolitan city of Honolulu, you’ll discover gorgeous shorelines, hidden valleys, cascading waterfalls, and the famed North Shore.
Explore Tours Photo TourSix million years of powerful natural forces have sculpted Kauai into what it is today, a natural masterpiece. 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.

Sarah, our pilot, was incredible! We had such an amazing time and this is just one of those things that you cannot miss while in Hawaii
I'm a frequent helicopter tour taker, and this was my worst experience. I paid extra for first class, and they were the worst seats imaginable. The pilot never turned in our direction so we could see the coastline. The planned landing in the valley didn't happen, and we only received a $60 refund. They also refunded my first-class surcharge. In my opinion, the weather was completely unsuitable for a flight; it should have been canceled and/or rescheduled. When I left, I was so disappointed that I went to a competitor, Air Maui, where I had a fantastic doors-off experience—I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
This was a truly amazing experience. We’ve done many helicopter tours in Canada, the USA and Africa, but this one is the best by far! It is not cheap, but good value for money. The sights were truly breathtaking. The helicopter was comfortable and in great condition. The pilot flew expertly and hosted us royally and was very well versed with the narrative. A special touch was the inspirational soundtrack that played as we flew over the magnificent sights. It felt at times like an out of body experience. We can’t recommend this tour enough!
Excellent guide (James) had a lot of facts to impart about Hawaiian and geological history. I felt safe flying with him at the controls. He made a wonderful soundtrack of music to listen to during the flight. Very enjoyable!
We enjoyed the amazing views on the island of moloka’i and also the dormant volcanos on the northern part of Maui! It was a fun ride and our pilot Herb did a great job of explaining what we were seeing! They also have a video of the flight you can buy at the end which was nice.
A memorable experience we won’t soon forget!
