Worth every penny!

Michael_R, May 2022

The flight over the waterfalls and na pali coast was absolutely amazing. The pictures truly don’t even do it justice. It’s literally Jurassic park minus the dinosaurs.

Once in a life time experience!

Jim_R, May 2022

The Blue Hawaiian helicopter tour of Kauai was a once in a lifetime thrill! The staff was very attentive and our pilot Greg handled all of the passengers’ needs with ease. The views were absolutely breathtaking and information about the movies filmed on the island as well as historical and cultural facts really gave our tour depth. The beauty of over Waimea Canyon eclipsed only by the lush textures of the Na Pali coastline. Our trip will be in our memories for the rest of our lives as pilot and passengers assisted and cheered on our engagement mid-flight. A trip to remember always!

Cannot miss this

Absolute highlight of our trip. The combination of my eyes with the music chocked me up a few times, it was emotional. Hands down the experience of a lifetime.

Magical

Nicole_E, May 2022

Seeing the joy and awe in my granddaughter’s face made it all worthwhile. The views were unbelievable.

Awesome experience!

Wade_J, May 2022

Great pilot, fantastic views. We really enjoyed seeing the island from a different perspective. Seeing the ocean, the coast, the rugged canyons, the lush hillsides and incredible waterfalls from the air was the perfect way to cap off our visit to Kauai.

Kauai Helicopter tour!

Amazing experience! Professional outfit, and by far best helicopters of all competitors. Felt 1000% safe! Highly recommend this company!

Fantastic Experience!

Nikhila_K, Apr 2022

Amazing experience. Very knowledgeable and courteous pilot. My family loved the experience. The bird's eye view of Kauai was the best way to see the island. We got to see a lot of amazing natural wonders that we wouldn't have been able to see otherwise. Highly recommend this trip.

Upon arrival, they demanded an additional $170. We refused, they would not refund us. Seems like a total scam, poor customer service

Do it!

Camela_C, Apr 2022

Great way to see Kauai and the Coast. Felt very safe with Mark and had a very smooth ride. We were rained out the day before and the ladies running the front area handled it with grace and humor. maholo

Spectacular views, rainbows, and waterfalls galore!!!

Allison_T, Apr 2022

The adventure with Alio was incredible. This super knowledgeable Hawaiian native made the journey even better. The Napali Coast was breathtaking as were the waterfalls and the Waimea Canyon. We were worried because it was a mostly cloudy day, but we went out and traveled through some areas of rain, but also found sunny areas across the island. Without rain, there would be no rainbows, which were beautiful. This trip is a must do!
