What a client driven... - What a client driven company! From the start everyone was above and beyond friendly and informative. We loved the no door experience. Our pilot was sensitive to each one of us seeing the same view, so he spun the helicopter at each site to ensure we all experienced the drama and awe inspiring beauty! I highly recommend spending the money for this once in a lifetime experience.

Unforgettably Spectacular! - The only way to truly experience the beauty of the garden island. With the doors off you almost feel like you can reach out and touch the mountains. Our pilot, Wayne, was born and raised on the island which provided local insight. He narrated our flight wonderfully.

Good tour - We enjoyed our experience. Our pilot is very good. We went midmorning. There was a good bit of fog. We did see a great rainbow though.

Best experience in Kauai! - This doors off helicopter tour was by far the most amazing thing we did while we were in Kauai! I don’t do well with heights, so I was a little nervous but there is no better way to experience the beauty of this island but with the doors off! This is a must book when you are there! Adam our pilot was great too.. as was all the staff! We would do this again.

Great experience all around! - Our pilot, Kate, was excellent and very informative. The trip was amazing- a must do in Hawaii! We saw incredible views, felt very safe. It was a little chilly, I would have dressed a little warmer and brought my sunglasses had I known I could.

Back seat Joe - Great experience touring without doors, such a beautiful island. Our pilot was great and the weather was perfect. We paid for front seats however didn’t realize there was a weight limit. After taking the tour we were much more comfortable in the back seats, were not overly large people but that front seat it tight. Worked out for the best and still a great experience.
