Brett provided us with amazing views we would not have seen if we had not flown with him. He provided information and a beautiful view of Kauai. Take the doors off and DO IT! well worth the cost.

Best excursion to see the Island!

Best tour ever! The joy of the helicopter ride and views you would never see from the ground! The pilot was very professional and spoke of what we were flying over. Safety video to watch prior to boarding. Worth every cent!

Once-in-a-lifetime! EXQUISITE

I booked the doors-off helicopter tour on Kauai for my girlfriend and myself. I figured that an aerial tour of an unspoiled, beautiful island was a good pick for an unforgettable excursion. It would be a vast understatement to say that I wasn't disappointed. The tour was absolutely BREATHTAKING. Our pilot Reed was very safety-conscious and we never felt any semblance of danger. He was highly-skilled and able to navigate the helicopter into narrow canyons. Just when I thought I had been treated to the most beautiful picture of nature, the next minute of flight brought another. I highly recommend booking this tour for a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

A spectular tour!

Our doors-off helicopter tour with Ali‘i Air Tours & Charters was amazing! I have to say, getting into a helicopter without doors felt a bit scary at first, but we were strapped in safely and the staff explained everything clearly. Their professionalism made me feel at ease right away. As soon as we took off, my nerves were gone. The views were absolutely stunning! You can’t reach much of Kaua‘i’s beautiful landscape on foot, so seeing the rugged mountains, deep valleys, hidden waterfalls, and untouched scenery from above was something special. Flying into the narrow crevasses and seeing waterfalls up close as they poured down the mountainsides was amazing. It really made us appreciate how unique and beautiful Kaua‘i is. This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and definitely one of the best parts of our trip. If you’re looking for an unforgettable adventure and a view of Kaua‘i that most people never see, I highly recommend Ali‘i Air Tours & Charters!

Kauai by air...Is there any other way?

Auntie May initially looked after us, with flight safety instructions. Then it was up in the sky with our pilot, Will. The two of us were the only passengers in a three seater helicopter. We saw mountains, waterfalls and valleys that aren't accessible until you're in the air. It was a great hour long flight and totally recommended!!

An Absolutely Unforgettable Experience!

Our flight over beautiful Kauai was an absolutely incredible and unforgettable experience! From start to finish, everything was perfect. Seeing Kauai’s breathtaking landscapes, dramatic mountains, lush valleys, and the stunning Nāpali Coast from the air was truly spectacular. We enjoyed every single moment of the flight. This was definitely one of our highlights of our trip to Kauai and an experience we will remember forever. A huge thank you to Mei & Brett for making this experience so special. They were incredibly kind, welcoming, and professional, and we felt very comfortable throughout the entire flight. We highly recommend this tour to everyone visiting Kauai!
