It was unbelievable, magical and beautiful. All the staff was super nice and made it very easy for us to understand. The helicopter without doors was comfy and a full adrenaline kick. Kauai is so beautiful. I have never seen that many waterfalls and the Napali cost is a dream!

Full description

Discover Kauai from above on a turbine-powered 4-passenger Hughes 500 helicopter tour. The doors are removed, so you experience the best views possible with glare-free photography opportunities.

Depart from Lihue Airport and fly over some of the most amazing areas of the islands, such as the Manawaiopuna Falls (Jurassic), Waimea Canyon, Napali Coastline, and so many more striking locations. Listen to your pilot as you fly high in the sky over the two-way intercom, so you can ask as many questions as you like.

Feel safe and in good hands with your highly experienced pilot, who is known for flying to remote locations on the island and has extensive helicopter-flying experience.

This was a great way to see the whole island and if you are a Jurassic Park fan, I highly recommend it!
