Waikiki Beach

You begin with the heights of the Waikiki skyline along the sultry sands of the most famous beach in the Pacific.

Diamond Head State Monument

Oahu's crown, Diamond Head, pops into view presiding over the island known as The Gathering Place.

Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve

As you pass over the ridges of the Leeward coast, Hanauma Bay appears below and gentle beaches transform into rugged volcanic cliffs, carved over millennia by sun, surf, and rain.

Makapuu Lighthouse

You continue on this regal tour by flying over top of the charming Makapu’u lighthouse.

Lanikai Beach

The island’s Windward Coast awaits where you will see the incredible Ko’olau mountains standing watch above Lanikai Beach – often called the most marvelous beach in the world – and the offshore sandbars and coral formations that make Kaneohe Bay one of the most picturesque places on Earth.

Mokoli’i Island

Fly past Mokoli'i Island, and view with awe the succulent Ka’a’awa Valley before you.

Kaaawa

The pilot guides your helicopter into the pristine forest and jagged cliffs of the magnificent Ka'a'awa Valley. As the mountains approach, you fly in close to see the magnificent waters of Sacred Falls tumble over 1000 feet to the rainforest below.

North Shore

Dole Plantation

You head back towards the airport with a passage over the mountains and the island's inland sea - Dole Plantation's "Pineapple Sea".

Cat. Cat was amazing! I was absolutely terrified and my husband had an absolutely amazing time and Cat handled both extremes beautifully. She was funny and informative and kept us 100% alive, which I appreciated. We went with the doors off, and it was the right choice for us. Terrifying but also incredibly exciting...I couldn’t think of any way to make the experience better. It’s very pricey, but also...we lived, so... We reserved our tour online. We had clear instructions as to where to go, where to park and where to check in. They did a good job with signs and we never felt like we were just wandering around trying to figure things out. After check in, we were led to a small room where we had a safety briefing and were fitted with emergency life belts (very nerve wracking) and were instructed to leave everything except for glasses, jackets, and phones in a desk drawer. (Apparently, things could accidentally fall out of pockets into the tail rotors....more things for my nightmares). We were given neck holders for our phones, then we went to a larger waiting area until our pilot was ready for us. We were taken by golf cart to the helicopter loading area (the golf cart ride was almost as fast as the helicopter, but I liked that part!). Our golf cart driver got us to the loading zone just as our pilot was touching down and we saw the previous party depart (they also lived, so that was reassuring). We were able to have our photos taken in front of our helicopter (our helpful golf cart driver took them with my phone) and then we popped into our ride. The earphones were snug (painfully) and it was a little difficult to understand everything that was said. I clearly understood when Cat said not to grab her arm, so I didn’t do that anymore. She redirected me to grab the window edge or my seat if I was feeling particularly terror filled, so that was helpful. Luckily, my husband was seated behind me and was able to take pictures out of our doorless helicopter (I was busy not grabbing Cat’s arm). Cat narrated the ride and pointed out helpful landmarks and I tried to smile with my eyes and nod knowingly (because I kept forgetting to push the “talk” button on the microphone). Our tour was supposed to be 60 minutes (i think) but we were done and back in about 40-45 minutes. For me, that was perfect...but some people might fuss about that. Overall, this was a bucket list thing for my husband. He loved it and I’m glad I got to share it with him. Our pilot did a great job making me feel less terrified and also answered all of his “what’s that over there?” questions. Five stars, because...we lived.

Absolutely the best way to see Hawaii. Hard to hear with doors off and to understand the pilot but the view was amazing! I wouldn't buy the video afterwards unless you just want to see the top of your heads the whole trip. Very disappointed in the video for $72!!!
