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. The airborne portion of the tour lasts 55 minutes and will take you over incredibly rugged terrain and remote locations. From the cabin you will be able to observe the Napali Coast, Waimea Canyon, the hidden Kipa Kai Beach, and Mt. Waialeale which is Kauai’s highest point. Along the way, you will be able to catch glimpses of countless waterfalls, massive sea cliffs, and lush jungle landscapes. Return time to Oahu is expected to be 8pm.
