If you are looking for an exciting activity that will let you experience almost all the fantastic scenery of the island, Maui helicopter tours are the way to go! Some tours bring you to the lush jungles of Hana and the arid landscape of Haleakala Crater, some fly over the entirety of Maui, and some take you to the West Maui (Kahalawai) Mountains and then cross an ocean channel to take in views of Molokai, the lovely neighbor isle.

Imagine kicking back while your superb pilot flies you and your family smoothly above, around, and next to the many features of the gorgeous land and seascapes. You’ll wear headphones in the cockpit so that you can hear the pilot narrating your tour, but you cannot hear the beating of the helicopter blades. See things you cannot reach without a helicopter, like stunning hidden waterfalls, deep gorges, the incredibly high sea cliffs of Molokai, and maybe (from December through April) some humpback whales! If you choose a tour that soars past Haleakala Crater, you will also climb the slopes of a volcano without breaking a sweat—the best kind of vacation!

Maui helicopter tours are comfortable, thrilling, informative, and safe. The pilot will tell you ancient stories that have been told for centuries, point out historical sites, and speak of the flora and fauna living alongside the people below. While you are listening, you will look down and all around you through the large helicopter windows, admiring the ever-changing vibrant views of the island. Take a look below to decide which one of the Maui helicopter tours is the best for you. Keep in mind that all ages can fly, so you don’t have to leave even one member of your “ohana” behind!

We will see you in the air!
