Twice before I had tried to do a helicopter tour of Kauai, mostly to get that “once in a lifetime” view of the Na Pali Coast. Both times, weather resulted in the cancellation of the flight. This time, the weather was sunny and clear; and the flight went off as scheduled – and I was lucky to have the front window seat!
The scenery and viewpoint were spectacular! I loved how the pilot approached the valleys and did a slow reveal of the next ridge by flying up the ridge wall, looking like we were really close to the jungle below, before topping the ridge and seeing the vastness of the next valley below.
The ride was smooth and easy, the pilot knowledgeable. And the scenery was unbeatable. Highly recommended!
