- Lihue - Tour Waimea Canyon, dubbed by Mark Twain as the “ Grand Canyon of the Pacific.” Although Mark Twain never visited the island, he must have seen enough of it to judge the unparalleled grandeur of this famous Kauai landmark. It is truly a spectacular sight.
Mount Waialeale is known as the wettest spot on earth with an average annual rainfall of approximately 450 inches. Most of the mountain rain drains into the nearby Alakai Swamp, home to several rare species of plants and birds. Wailua Falls is also known as Fantasy Island Waterfalls for their cameo appearance weekly in the TV series of the same name.
The legendary Na Pali Coast, with its dramatic cliffs chiseled by time and remote beaches is spellbinding no matter how many times you see it. This is the home of the legendary Bali Hai as seen in the 20th Century Fox movie, South Pacific.

Absolutely amazing! - This was the most amazing experience of our time in the islands. The views were unbelievable, we loved the stories and information the pilot Alex gave us, and even the music was fun! Alex was kind, we felt very comfortable and at ease with him flying, and he had some fun jokes thrown in. If you go- request him-m, you won’t be sorry! Money and time well spent. The ground crew were great as well.

Ground crew especially receptionist rude and unprofessional. Pilot good but none in group could hear what he was saying. - Ground crew especially receptionist were very rude to the group. It seemed that we were not welcome to be there. They talked and laughed between their coworkers but ignored us. Pilot good but no one could hear what he was saying on headset. Will try another company for next trip for sure!
