Private Oahu Helicopter Tours
$395.00
While Oahu is rife with highways that carry motorists to nearly every corner of the island, a vehicle can only get you so far. Dotted with inaccessible mountain ranges, remote waterfalls, and swirling colorful offshore reefs, the only way to truly explore Oahu inside and out is via the seat of a helicopter. Fortunately, one of the best helicopter companies in the state operates on Oahu- and they know how to elevate the experience, no pun intended. With a maximum of only three passengers, each guest is afforded a window seat. The pilot also plays the role of tour guide, offering an in-depth narration of the flight. With a handful of island excursions to choose from, guests can explore from the pulsing heart of Waikiki to the dramatic pali cliffs on the windward side. And if a private Oahu helicopter tour isn’t exciting enough to begin with, doors-off flights are also an offer.

THE OAHU EXPERIENCE
From Waikiki to the North Shore and back, this 55-60 minute excursion circles nearly the entire island of Oahu. The journey begins in Honolulu, coasting over the Waikiki skyline and the iconic Diamond Head crater. As you head along the south shore, you’ll pass over Hanauma Bay, Koko Head, and the rugged coastline at Makapuʻu Point. From here, you’ll travel over the windward side of the island, over kaleidoscopic reefs, tiny offshore islands, and along sheer jade cliffs. This route also showcases views of the sweeping Kaʻaʻawa Valley, also known as Jurassic Valley, and the 1,000 ft. Sacred Falls, which is off-limits to the public. But it doesn’t end there- you’ll then swoop over to the North Shore, home to dazzling golden beaches and some of the best surf on the planet, before concluding with a flyover at Pearl Harbor. This Oahu Tour is the most timely and breathtaking way to experience all that Oahu offers.
