A great low level treat - It’s a totally different experience seeing places from the air. It gives you a much greater appreciation of the island and its history

Rainbow Helicopter Tour - This was such an amazing experience that my family and I were able to do while vacationing in Hawaii. I would definitely recommend this place. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and all were super friendly. Thanks to Lucian for such a wonderful tour.

Unbelievable Sites - The beautiful ocean,the amazing waterfall. Emma the pilot telling us all about the things we were seeing. The smell of the air, the slight mist of rain. Way to many things to name them all. Definitely the best outing of our 8 days, hands down. If this is your first trip or it could be your last trip to this beautiful Hawaiian paradise, you have to take the Helicopter tour with the doors off.

Flight over Honolulu just superb - A perfect 45-minute flight to discover Honolulu from the sky.
The views of the lagoons are breathtaking and the mountain reefs seen from the sky just splendid.
The ground framing and just perfect.
Thank you all.

it was an incredible... - it was an incredible journey, but with the doors open it was scary because gusts of wind would come into the cabin and it seemed like it would blow you away, but the view from the helicopter is much larger and incredible

Well run operation. We had a blast - My wife & I did this helicopter tour in July. It's a legit operation, clean and smooth. Our pilot was knowledgeable and friendly. I do recommend the doors off option but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous throughout the flight!

Oahu from the sky - The views of the island were insane! Flew over parts that I am not likely to get on my trip so it was fabulous to see them from the sky. Our pilot Kieran was very knowledgeable and was safe and kind.

Bucket List! - Incredible experience! Worth every penny! The customer service and instruction for safety was clear and concise. The pilot (Kieran) was very informative and pleasant. The helicopter seats 4 including a pilot so if you go as a couple, chances are you will get a private tour!
