5.00This was a fantastic tour! We saw all of the island in an hour and so many things we would have missed from a car. The booking and check in /safety instructor was great! Mae explained everything and helped make our experience go smoothly! Our pilot was great! He gave us details and facts about the island and what we were seeing. He answered all our questions and helped us feel at ease in the air! He took us inside so many coves and close to everything we wanted to see! I’d recommend this tour to anyone looking for a personal and top rate experience!
Great Way to see the Napali Coast

5.00We had a great time on our first ever open door helicopter tour. From the easy booking with Ingrid, to the easy check-in and safety briefing with Auntie Mae, to our pilot, Ross, everything was well organized and easy. We picked this tour because it’s limited to 3 passengers and all have an in obstructed view. I highly recommend Ali'i Air Tours & Charters.
Awesome
