Tour Description
This tour starts early in the morning where you will depart from the Honolulu Airport and fly over to Lihue on Kauai. From the airport you will embark on a driving tour of Kauai’s most breathtaking scenic locales including but not limited to Ahukini Landing, Lydgate Beach, Kilauea, the town of Princeville, Kapa’a, and many more amazing locations. Around midday your driver will take you to Tahiti Nui where you can enjoy lunch in the same location where they filmed many scenes in George Clooney’s 2011 film The Descendants.
After lunch, take to the skies aboard a modern and sleek helicopter to continue exploring parts of the island that can’t be accessed with a vehicle.
