Discover Kauai Helicopter Tour From Princeville

Absolutely worth it and then some! Sure you can see videos of this but nothing compares to seeing the island from this perspective. The pilot was super knowledgeable but also let us just take in the amazing views.

Our pilot Alex was so amazing. Calm, experienced, intersting and kind. Everything happened smoothly, always with safety and comfort at the forefront. I have done many high quality excursions- this was defintetly the very best.

We did this tour on New Year’s Eve on our last full day in Kauai and it was an awesome way to close out 2025! We literally booked the day before and got lucky to get 2 seats. Or pilot, Barrett, was experienced and funny! We felt safe the whole time! The views of the waterfalls, the canyon and the Napali coast were amazing! We chose Blue Hawaiian because we flew with them once before in Kona, HI and had a great experience! About the only complaint I have is we paid an extra 400.00 to sit up front. They asked us when we checked-in if we wanted to upgrade. We sat in front on our other flight from Kona, but we did not have to pay extra. There were 5 passengers on this Kauai flight and while we had awesome seats, it would have been interesting to see where we would have been sitting if we had not upgraded, as all 5 of us could not have sat up front. And,the other 3 people did not want to upgrade.

It was amazing seeing Kauai from above, despite some rain at the beginning. It provides a real understanding of the size of the island and able to see some area, otherwise not seen.

Alex the pilot was great , we were lucky with the wheather . Good visibility , no turbulence . Spotted a whale

Great experience, our first time taking a helicopter. Felt very safe with our pilot Barrett. He had a relaxed nature to his presentation.

The flight experience was great. We flew all over and saw the entire island. Our pilot Duke was awesome. Flight was smooth and he was very informative and friendly. What I didn’t like in my experience was that I was 6lbs over weight limit which says I have to have an empty seat next to me and it’s an additional fee. Which costs half price . I had 3 passengers on the flight I really doubt there would have been a single passenger that would have been on the flight with us to take the seat. Also, they try to sell “first class” front seat even when they were already getting the front seat seats. They asked if I wanted it and said no to have my family all together . Which left the other two upfront which they still tried to sell it to them. I told the couple we opted to sit in back and they would be up front anyway. So they didnt buy it, thankfully they didn’t get the extra $400 charge.

Alex was such a great pilot and guide. We sat in the front, which is well worth the additional cost for a once in a lifetime experience! My husband sat by the door and I was between him & the pilot. I was incredibly nervous, but Alex had such a relaxed and calming demeanor as he discussed the views around us that I was soon at peace and REALLY enjoying the experience! My husband was absolutely in heaven as this was on his bucket list. It was an experience that we will NEVER forget and Kauai is definitely the place to do this for the first time! Mahalo to all the wonderful staff! :)

After much research regarding Kauai helicopter tours, we booked Blue Hawaiian out of Princeville as we had a party of six and were staying in the Princeville area. Blue Hawaiian checked those boxes. The experience was exceptional. The check-in process was extremely professional and informative. Our pilot, Benson was a wealth of information regarding the terrain of Kauai as well as its history. He was also a very skilled pilot making our tour adventurous and safe all at the same time. I would highly recommend this company. Thank you!

Amazing flight, the best tour we've ever had! We had thr tour one day postponed because of heavy rainfalls. But the result was hundreds of waterfalls in the mountains. The flight was just fabulous, I highly recommend this tour.

The tour was fantastic-benson our pilot and everyone we dealt with at blue Hawaiian was friendly and informative. This is a wonderful way to see Kauai.

What a great experience. Such a smooth ride....beautiful scenery with great interepter (our pilot) explaining everything to us. Service was exceptional... Background music made the viewing great. Kauaii is so beautiful I recommend it to all. Totally a wonderful experience.

It was great. Staff was wonderful. Informative and very nice. We have taken helicopters tours before, so we weren’t nervous, but the staff was very reassuring. The views wear beautiful. Everyone will love this tour.

It was a rainy trip to Kauai (more so than is typical) - but we lucked out and had mostly clear weather for our flight. So much to see - we ended up buying the flight video so we could revisit the experience whenever we want. Our pilot (retired Army) was great, and made everyone comfortable. Highly recommended.

Robby was a great pilot and narrator. The tour took us over many beautiful sites that are inaccessible by car. Highly recommend.

I went on a Holland America cruise to Hawaii. I booked a tour through the ship called discover kaua'i. My tour guides name was Domi. Very warm and personable he also played the you ukulele while we were at a stop looking at beautiful waterfall underneath a beautiful monkey pod tree. Couldn't help but be moved spiritually by the gorgeous scenery. If you have the opportunity to go with Domi you will learn a little polynesian and learn about the culture.

That was amazing. I'm not a fan of heights and water unless I feel safe. I also have my worries but pilot Duke was great. He was very informative. He handled the helicopter very well and let us know what to expect. They tell you ahead of time when checking in what your seat assignment will be passed on balancing the helicopter. The views were amazing. It was so cool to see how tiny you are comparatively to the mountains. Fantastic time.

My wife and I went with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters and toured the island of Kauai departing from Princeville Airport which was super convenient when staying in Princeville only ~3 miles away! Captain Isaiah was informative, fin and safe. The staff was friendly and helpful. The scenario was memorable and can we saw everything we wanted to see and much more within just an hour. This was a bucket list experience for my dear wife and I am glad I was able to join her on my second helicopter ride.

The tour was the highlight of our trip. The pilot Isaiah was friendly and knowledgeable. We saw all the places we wanted to see and the views were spectacular!

We put off booking until the morning of as the forecast given on the nights before was always cloudy and rain! Who wants to spend this much money and not see anything. Well the cloudy and rainy forecasts from the nights before always turn into sunny with a chance of showers! Needless to say, it was a perfect day with Robert, the perfect pilot! Our first time in a helicopter and it was fine..no, it was great! You see everything up there…and it doesn’t take all day! It is very true that you should wear dark clothing. I would even go so far as to suggest dark pants. We sat up front with Robert. We had on dark shirts and shorts but the reflection of my legs was still in some pics. Take lots of pics and videos and then weed out the ones that are not excellent! Last but not least, don’t forget to tip your pilot!

Great experience to know the island. First time in elicopter and I will do it again for sure. I suggest the trip to everybody

Perfect way to see the entire island and all its beauty. The only recommendation I have is to take a Dramamine prior to the ride. I know it seems odd but we were all quite nauseous at times. Otherwise this was a fabulous experience.

Great sights and easy trip with lots of interesting commentary. Beautiful day that started out dreary turned out Beautiful

The ride was smooth in the clearly experienced and capable hands of our pilot, who was also very knowledgeable of Kauai's cultural history as well as it's physical geography without being overbearing. The pilot did a superb job of taking us close to waterfalls, canyons and jungle cliffs, slowly turning so we could view things from different angles...such beauty. All very impressive. The selection of music was also perfect and the staff assistants very friendly. I would go again with this same helicopter tour group. Mahalo and Aloha!

We had an amazing time flying with Blue Hawaiian! Very professional with all the security protocols. The pilot was informative, friendly and provided us a steady and amazing tour.

The helicopter ride was amazing! It exceeded our expectations and, as my nine year old said, was epic!

It was amazing. I the beginning we was disappointed because the weather wasn’t perfect but it was better because we saw a lot of waterfalls. If it is too hot it is not so much . It was the perfect day . We turned around the island, so we saw all the views, ocean, waterfalls, land everything it was amazing, beautiful, unforgettable. Definitely recommend this tour

This tour was amazing from beginning to end. Margaret at the airport is friendly and efficient and makes everyone feel welcome and safe. The helicopter is new and comfortable. The safety briefing was great and the pilot (Benson) was fantastic. We loved the way they incorporated the music with the sights. The ride was smooth and thrilling at the same time. We saw beautiful areas that you can only sea from the air and learned a lot about the island and the history. We got to experience the crater and the waterfalls close up. The views of the Napali coast were breathtaking. We can’t wait to go again. Highly recommend this helicopter tour!

We had a great experience! The staff is very polite and the pilot was amazing in explaining everything to us. We had one of the best moments of our lives!! Highly recommend the experience!

Excellent trip with our pilot Robert. The views were amazing! It was great hearing all about the sights we saw! Very professional and safety is their first priority. Highly recommend this to see Kauai! It is everything they say it is. Everyone is very helpful and friendly.

Great day for a flight. Views were gorgeous. My only reason for 4 stars is my head set had a short in it and I had to hold just right to get noise cancelling and to hear. Seat #3

Absolutely stunning way to view the island! Gorgeous views of the entire island. Margaret was amazing prepping us for the trip, super friendly and informative. Our pilot, Duke, was fun and full of information as we flew. Beautiful, unique experience that we highly recommend. A once in a lifetime excursion that we will be talking about for years!
