The tour itself was amazing! We couldn't get into the mountains on account of the winds, but that's the risk on a helicopter tour. We did the doors off option. Super fun, but very windy! Even more than we expected. It was our first time flying in a helicopter and we were all a little nervous/ uncomfortable for the first 15 minutes until we got used to it swaying around so much. The ONLY complaint we had was the set up for the tour. We were asked to be there a full hour before, and therefore, we showed up as asked. The entire check in process took less than 10 minutes and then we were asked to sit in a quiet waiting room until our flight time which started a few minutes late. We sat for a full hour. It was a waste of time getting there so early! The staff were very professional, but it felt a little cold. We walked in pretty excited and they made the process feel very boring. Both of my teenagers said it felt like we were at a funeral or something. The flight itself and the pilot were great and we would definitely do a tour again.

A fantastic experience! Our pilot, Julian, was wonderful, very friendly, professional, and full of great commentary with interesting facts about Oahu. The 45-minute flight was absolutely gorgeous and such a fun way to see the island from a completely different perspective. Highly recommend Rainbow Helicopter Tours!
