Tour Waimea Canyon, dubbed by Mark Twain as the " Grand Canyon of the Pacific." Although Mark Twain never visited the island, he must have seen enough of it to judge the unparalleled grandeur of this famous Kauai landmark. It is truly a spectacular sight. Mount Waialeale is known as the wettest spot on earth with an average annual rainfall of approximately 450 inches. Most of the mountain rain drains into the nearby Alakai Swamp, home to several rare species of plants and birds. Wailua Falls is also known as Fantasy Island Waterfalls for their cameo appearance weekly in the TV series of the same name. The legendary Na Pali Coast, with its dramatic cliffs chiseled by time and remote beaches is spellbinding no matter how many times you see it. This is the home of the legendary Bali Hai as seen in the 20th Century Fox movie, South Pacific.

First time in a helicopter. The views of Kauai were fantastic. The service of the outfitter left alot to be desired. Photo op prior to take off left a less than desirable keepsake. The headsets and microphones were only operable to hear pilot not other passengers including my wife. The music played in the headsets was less than inspirational. We were told preflight the pilot would hover over photo op sights. Didnt happen. several times major scenery was only visible to one side of passengers as we flew by. I requested post flight help from marketing for some pics of sights we missed. They didnt follow up at all. Staff yelled at my wife for dropping her mask for brief moment to take picture in copter. Not at all impressed by outfitter

The helicopter ride on whisperstar was soo unbelievable. The views from the air is something that everyone should do when visiting the Napali coast. The helicopter pilot was informative on the land of Kauai and gave lots of history and cool information about the island. I learned so much and saw views that are unforgettable. Thank you sunshine helicopters.

This is a "don't miss" opportunity to see beautiful Kauai from the air. The ride was smooth, the pilot very skilled and the views outstanding. We paid extra to sit up front with the pilot which gave us a wonderful view from the front and side. The 4 seats in back of us are assigned by body weight so you are not guaranteed a window seat.
