The pristine beaches of Waikiki are just one of the many wonders to behold in Oahu. A journey here isn’t truly complete until you’ve seen the emblematic mountain tops of the island. A half-hour helicopter ride can present you with majestic sights of Diamond Head, the triple summits of Mt. Olomana, and Nu’uanu Pali. Mid-flight, your eyes will also take in the turquoise waters of Haunama Bay, Makapu’u Point’s guiding lighthouse, and the historical Pearl Harbor.

Unexpected surprise! - This is an unexpected tour, at begin, I think it's not very worth the price. But after onbording, I changed my mind, it's really a exceting tour, the helicopter is not so bumpy as what I had ever thinking. We enjoyed whole of the beautiful Honolulu area, this is a perfect end to our 2024 Hawaii trip. The stuff are very fridenly expecially the pilot is very professional!

Amazing pilot and views! 🤙🏽 - Our pilot Darrell knew the best views to take us to and shared tons of fun facts with us - from movies made at each site visited to celebrity homes and more. We were scheduled for a 30 minute ride but were not rushed at all. We were definitely on island time and will be back!
