Island Helicopters is ranked best choice for breathtaking US landscapes, by USA Today

When it comes to experiencing the beauty of the United States from the sky, nothing compares to a helicopter tour. And according to the USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards, Island Helicopters is officially the #1 helicopter tour operator in the US for 2024.

From the awe-inspiring cliffs of the Na Pali Coast to the world-famous Jurassic Falls, our tours offer a front-row seat to the breathtaking landscapes of Kauai. Let us show you why Island Helicopters isn’t just another tour—it’s the tour to make your Hawaiian adventure unforgettable.

Ranked #1: What Sets Us Apart?

Being recognized as the best helicopter tour in the US is an honor we take seriously. But it’s not just the views that set us apart—it’s the entire experience.

  • Exclusive Access: Only Island Helicopters can take you to the base of the stunning Jurassic Falls. This is more than just a flyover; it’s a chance to walk the grounds of one of Kauai’s most iconic landmarks.
  • Local Expertise: Our pilots are more than just skilled—they’re locals who share the rich history, culture, and hidden secrets of Kauai during your flight.
  • State-of-the-Art Aircraft: With floor-to-ceiling windows and a climate-controlled cabin, our helicopters are designed for both comfort and unbeatable views.

Our Signature Tours

We offer three distinct experiences, each designed to highlight the best of Kauai’s natural beauty:

  1. Grand Skies Island Tour:
    This 50-55 minute flight takes you over Kauai’s most iconic sights, including Waimea Canyon, the Na Pali Coast, and Mount Waialeale’s crater. It’s the ultimate way to see the island’s grandeur from above.
  2. Jurassic Falls Landing Adventure:
    This exclusive tour offers something no one else can—a landing at Manawaiopuna Falls, famously featured in Jurassic Park. Step into the magic of Hollywood while surrounded by lush jungle and cascading waterfalls.
  3. Exclusive Personal Tour:
    Perfect for families, couples, or private groups, this customizable experience allows you to create a unique adventure tailored just for you.

Why Kauai?

There’s a reason Kauai is known as the “Garden Isle.” From the dramatic cliffs of the Na Pali Coast to hidden waterfalls deep within lush valleys, Kauai offers some of the most stunning landscapes in the world. And with so much of the island inaccessible by road, a helicopter tour is truly the best way to take it all in.

Whether you’re marveling at the vibrant colors of Waimea Canyon or flying through the crater of Mount Waialeale (one of the wettest spots on Earth), every moment is a memory waiting to happen.

Our Commitment to Excellence

At Island Helicopters, we pride ourselves on delivering more than just a tour—we provide an experience. Our dedication to safety, professionalism, and customer satisfaction is unmatched, and our top ranking in the USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards reflects that commitment.
