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.

Seeing the island of Kauai from a helicopter is wonderful and breathtaking. However, using Sunshine Helicopters was not. From the moment we walked, Freddy did not take the safety overview seriously and we were left wondering what we really were supposed to do in case of an emergency, he was very flippent about the whole presentation. Then when asked about the pilot (had heard that the pilot was soft spoken), he said no that John was the best.....well, that was a lie, we were not able to understand most of the presentation on the helicopter because he did not speak loud enough, nor did he ask us any questions or really seem to care that we were there. We were never asked to sign a waiver, nor were we offered any pictures or dvds after the flight.....it was all a hot mess! I would use a different copter next time to get the whole experience!

I can now say I have flown in a helicopter. I have to say I was absolutely terrified about going in a helicopter but I am so glad I didn't let my fear hold me back. We took the Ultimate Kauai Adventure while we were in Kauai. We booked the early bird tour with hopes we would have good weather. The day of our flight we were worried that we may get cancelled due to weather but our flight was during a break in the weather and we were a go. There were 5 of us so we were the only ones in helicopter with the pilot. There is no better way to see Kauai than from the air. The waterfalls and the terrain were absolutely breathtaking. The only disappointment was we were hoping for a video of our trip and the camera wasn't working.

We enjoyed a great tour of the island with Neal (Nails) as our pilot. He was able to take us into the interior where it’s difficult to see the natural beauty of Kauai. Waimea Canyon and the Napali Coast were especially beautiful. The only regret we had was his choice of music that was piped in through our headsets; something in between hip-hop and rap made our trip less enjoyable.
