Kauai ECO Adventure
Experience a first-class ECO-Star Helicopter Adventure over the Garden Isle of Kauai! You'll fly the incredible new American Eurocopter ECO-Star, which reduces over-flight noise by approximately 50%. This state-of-the-art marvel also gives you 23% more interior room, individual Business Class style seats, two-way communication with your pilot, and expansive glass for outstanding sweeping views of Kauai's incomparable natural beauty.
Your journey begins with a flight to spectacular Hanapepe Valley, then continues on to Mana Waiapuna, commonly referred to as "Jurassic Park Falls.” Next it's up the Olokele Canyon before moving on to eye-popping Waimea Canyon, the famed "Grand Canyon of the Pacific.” Then, the sculptural masterpiece of the Na Pali Coast gives way to the Bali Hai Cliffs, and the pristine blue waters of Hanalei Bay and the Princeville Resort area. Finally, weather permitting, the crowning glory of the Garden Isle: Mt Waialeale, the wettest spot on earth, with an average rainfall of 450-500 inches annually! Flying into the center of the crater with its 5000-foot walls towering above and its 3000-foot waterfalls surrounding you, is a truly awe-inspiring finish to your ECO Adventure over the Garden Isle. |

We had been told by many folks that a helicopter tour of Kauai is a 'must do' while in Hawaii. We will certainly be giving others the same advice. The one hour tour encompassed the whole island, around and through the heart of it. Nothing was rushed as we had plenty of time for pictures. You’ll not want to spend most of your time looking through a viewfinder of a camera though. There are so many incredible waterfalls, some as high as 3000' and the beautiful Napali Coast is a must see from the air. There are many ways to get around the island, but a helicopter ride is by far the best! |

The most excellent part of our trip to Hawaii!

Heli USA redesigned their doors and windows to allow optimal viewing area, and it a big plus. We were able to get outstanding views and great pictures. Digital cameras with LCD screens are a big help so you can determine which angle is best to negate the window-glare. The man in front of us took video, and it turned-out great too. |
