  • Spectacular helicopter ride in Kauai!

    There are not enough amazing things I can say about this excursion! My family and I were all a bit apprehensive, but the minute we arrived, everyone was so welcoming that we were able to relax. Refreshments we served while we waited and then after a short informational briefing, we were on. The ride was so much smoother than I thought it would be. By the time we were airborne, my entire family was too excited to be nervous. Our pilot, Amy, was fantastic! She pointed out the highlights to us and even turned in a slow circle to make sure everyone could see the views from all sides. And those views were absolutely spectacular! I’ve never seen such beauty in my entire life. It was surreal to see the turquoise waters of the Napali coast and travel into the canyons and volcanoes of Kauai. I can honestly say that this excursion was worth every penny. If you are even thinking about doing this, go for it! You won’t regret it.

    Great experience on the helicopter! The only small complain is finding the place. We were given the wrong address (literally one road down from where they actually were). So we parked at the wrong place and spent 15 minutes trying to find them. Suggest contacting them to clarify before heading there - they’re in a tent rather than an office.

    Everyone was wonderful from check in to return. Very informative and helped me with my fear. The views are absolutely incredible and the pilot gave us great info about the places we were seeing. He checked on us multiple times to make sure all was good. We weven saw a circle rainbow from above-it was magical. Would definitely recommend if this is on your bucket list!!

    Don’t forget your jacket - it may be warm on the ground, but as soon as you get in the air, you’ll be glad you’ve got it on Back seats are better for picture taking , but you don’t get a choice - they distribute the weight The pre- departure session was great and lots of tidbits of info Our pilot was fantastic - she handled the chopper like it was no big deal at all
