A vast array of green forested hills, and water falling over rain carved cliffs out to a sparkling blue sea, altogether this amazing air tour will teach you exactly why Kauai is called the Garden Isle!
Tour Options
Itinerary
Fly along the entire beautiful and amazing Na Pali Coast of Kauai. Every seat is a window seat, and with us you spend more time gazing at the Na Pali Coast than any other air tour.
Only airplanes include the lovely Kipu Kai and the entire Poipu shoreline of Kauai. The helicopters don't have time for this. We see so much more and have ample time for whale watching along the entire Poipu shoreline.
Weather permitting we like to fly over this waterfall. It is actually three waterfalls in a line, and one of only 100 you will see on this trip, this one best known for the movie Juraissic Park.
We fly the entire Waimea Canyon and see numerous waterfalls below us. The brown, eroded landscape is in sharp contrast the green of the garden isle seen everywhere else. The "Grand Canyon of the Pacific" is a must see.
Sometimes called the Crater because it has walls on three sides, this is a beautiful example of abundant waterfalls on Kauai. We love to fly alongside, the waterfalls off the wing tip, a truly amazing experience which we love to share with you.
Hanalei Bay is one of our largest, and beautiful to see. After passing the bay we fly up Hanalei Valley and the 100's of waterfalls, really ribbons of water gushing down from the sky are on all sides off the wings and underneath the plane, a truly amazing view to behold.

Travis was great - super informative and it was a beautiful afternoon. He loved everything about it. Thanks all
Booking the private Cessna tour was one of the highlights of our trip. It's an amazing value and my husband and I have told everyone about it. We went in May 2026 and we lucked out with the perfect weather with very few clouds. This is an excellent way to see the island. We booked this at the end of our trip, but would recommend for others to book at the beginning as the tour points out all the places and things things one should see and do. Tai was a wonderful pilot!
Tai was the perfect pilot …. I recommend this small personal experience to everyone.
Tai was an excellent pilot and we so enjoyed the time without other people. So many excursions have other people and you just need some quiet I highly recommend this personal tour.
We (wife and I) chartered the private Cessna plane tour in June 2026. We considered the helicopter tours but I used to travel for work in helicopters on occasion and every few years had to take a multi-day course on helicopter safety and how to get out of one when it crashed in the water. Needless to say, I opted for the Cessna. Our pilot (Travis ?) was outstanding and very professional. He was very good at the controls and having grown up on Kaua’i was very knowledgeable about the history of the island and its landmarks. Stunningly beautiful island from the air. Our only complaint was that the flight ended all too soon. We had a great time and would definitely recommend.
Our experience with Wings over Kauai exceeded expectations in every way! I’d booked for the wrong week and Caitlin managed somehow to get us a flight that same day I discovered the mistake- thank you Caitlin! Then Thai gave us a magnificent tour around the island. Seeing the Na Pali coast from the air - absolutely breathtaking! He was so chill and friendly and shared his love for the island and his knowledge. We considered a helicopter tour but I’m so glad we went with the private Cessna tour - it was so peaceful and beautiful and fun- a great way to start your week on the island so you can think about which places you want to visit.
This was a wonderful experience- we saw Kauai in all its beauty. Travis, our pilot, was excellent: he gave us history lessons and told us about the island. I would recommend this tour to everyone who wants to really see the island.
We really enjoyed our 1hr flight with Marcus. It was amazing and we felt 100% safe at all times. The Nepali Coast can only truly be appreciated by air or sea. The wettest spot on earth (+500 inches of rain a year) was also cool to fly over. Lots of waterfalls and movie scene sites to see as well. For about $150 a person for an hour tour, this a felt like a good deal ! Highly recommended this company, and tour, and Marcus the pilot! VictorB
This was an excellent tour! The pilot was very knowledgeable showing various points of interest. The length of the trip was just right. The plane was comfortable with big windows for viewing. I would highly recommend this tour.
Wonderful experience! Tour guide Travis was very informative and a great pilot. I missed the note we needed to arrive 30min early, he was very kind and still accommodated us.
