Hawaii Helicopter Tour -- described as getting a 'gods eye view'.
We joke that as Nike would say 'Just Do It' and boy do we mean it.

Want to take a Hawaii Helicopter Tour?
Really, really, we can't say enough about the amazing experience of flying over this incredible land and seascape that is Hawaii.
As you would guess, most people don't want it to end. Once you are up where the eagles fly, you just want to stay ...
Don't pass it up.

Pricing for helicopter tours will have you spending between $150 and $300 depending on a number of your requirements.
Most of the helicopter tour companies are competitive with each other so you will find the pricing is comparable between them. We do still recommend that you shop around and ask the pertinent questions such as number of years in business, their safety record, years of pilot experience, etc.

If you or your fellow passengers are prone to air sickness, do let the pilot know. It is also certainly recommended to choose a good weather day. That should go without saying especially if there are winds that are strong.

Let's talk a bit about Kauai. Oh my God ... if you get a chance, don't let it pass you by.
This island was made for helicopter exploration. From the ruggedly beautiful Na Pali Coast you will marvel at the sheer cliffs.
Razor thin mountains rise parallel to each other and vertical spires will have you in disbelief.

Hawaii Helicopter Tours on the Big Island have so many fantastic areas. The northeast side of the island is a lush wonderland and the southeast side is home to an active volcano.
You really need a knowledgeable pilot to guide you around the big island ... cause it is BIG. It used to be that air tour operators could fly at any altitude they wanted. Those days are definitely gone. There is a restriction of 500 feet over unpopulated areas.

The helicopter tours of Maui and Oahu aren't quite as spectacular, but still worth the ride. Paradise Helicopters on Oahu uses a 4 seater Hughes 500 and leave from Turtle Bay Resort on the north shore of Oahu.
A helicopter tour of Maui is a breathtaking experience and flying along the Hana coast and through the West Maui Mountains is truly unforgettable.
