Private Scenic Helicopter Tour + Waimea Canyon Hike (Fly Both Ways)
Experience Kauaʻi’s most exclusive land-and-air adventure. This fully private tour combines two breathtaking helicopter flights with a customized day of hiking, sightseeing, and exploration in Waimea Canyon and Kōkeʻe State Park. Your journey begins with an 8:00 AM private helicopter departure from Princeville Airport (7:15 AM latest check-in). Soar above Hanalei Valley, Waiʻaleʻale Crater, “Jurassic Park Falls,” and the island’s interior before landing at a private West Side airstrip, where your expert hiking guide awaits. Spend approximately 7.5 hours exploring the dramatic landscapes of Waimea Canyon and Kōkeʻe. Choose how active you want the day to be: gentle forest walks, panoramic canyon rim lookouts, hidden viewpoints, or more adventurous ridge trails. An optional stop for lunch at the historic Kōkeʻe Lodge is available. Waimea Canyon and Kōkeʻe are home to some of Hawaiʻi’s most spectacular scenery—towering canyon walls, high-elevation forests, sweeping Nāpali Coast vistas, native plants, and rare endemic birds found nowhere else on Earth. Your private return flight in the afternoon provides a spectacular finale, tracing the canyon and coastline you explored on foot and offering a final aerial sweep of Kauaʻi’s wild beauty.
