The Kauai Explore Tour with Maverick Helicopters

Flying out of Port Allen Airport on the western side of Kauai, Maverick Helicopters offers a VIP experience with two flight options in Kauai. The 25-minute Kauai Discovery tour takes you on an express look at the natural marvels of Western Kauai, including the 14-mile-long Waimea Canyon, the Na Pali-Kona Forest Reserve that includes Awini Falls and Waialae Falls, as well as an up-close look at Manawaiopuna Falls. You’ll end your trip by flying over the Hanapepe Valley, notable for its stunning mountain ranges and rich farmland.

If it’s a longer tour you’re after, the Kauai Explorer may be more what you’re looking for. Two of the island’s most recognizable landmarks, the Na Pali Coast and the Waimea Canyon, are both included but you’ll also get a look at several other fantastic sites in this 50-minute tour. You’ll also see one of the wettest places on Earth, the tropical rainforest that surrounds Mount Waialeale, as well as Mount Makana and the Bali Hai Cliffs.

They also offer helicopter tours in Maui in case your trip itinerary takes you there as well. The express version, the Kauai Discovery, is one of the cheapest helicopter tour options you’ll find on the island as it’s priced at only $169 USD per person inclusive of all fees. Alternatively, if you want to book the longer Kauai Explorer tour, it will set you back $269 per person.
