Kauai Helicopter Tours

A helicopter tour is the only way to see roughly 70% of Kauai — the interior valleys, hidden waterfalls, and the full, impossible scale of the Na Pali Coast that no road or trail reaches. In under an hour you fly from Lihue over Waimea Canyon, the Olokele and Manawaiopuna (Jurassic Park) falls, the Wailua river valley, and the emerald sea cliffs of the north shore.
