Wear a wind breaker. Make sure volume is up so you can hear pilot’s narration. Why do I need to keep adding?

I had an incredible experience with Honolulu Helicopter Company during my recent visit to Oahu. Our pilot, Stefan, was not only skilled but also incredibly informative, enriching our journey with fascinating insights about the island. I wholeheartedly recommend this company to anyone looking for an unforgettable aerial adventure over Oahu.

Excellent - enjoyable - polite - knowledgeable

For my first time in a helicopter it was wonderful for both me and my friend. Our pilot was exceptional.

Stefan is an awesome pilot and tour guild

Best part of our one week long vacation. Smooth ride, lots to see, absolutely spectacular views. Got to see lots of turtles, a whale and lots of surfers. We recommend going with the doors off!

Excellent way to see the whole Island

STEPHEN_M, Dec 2023
Tip: The meeting point is at the end of the Lagoon road. There is a car park and a gate. You need to be able to text the helicopter company and you need photo ID. You can’t take anything on the helicopter, so don’t bring anything you will not need. They provide lanyard for your phone and sunglasses if you need them. The helicopter is open so it can be windy, but we went with just our tee shirts and it was fine. Alex (our pilot) made the journey really enjoyable, great flying and expert commentary. I 100% recommend this tour.

First time experience open door helicopter tour, it makes the memories go beyond. How to put your best level to enjoy the sunset and wind blow in your hair.! I am thrilled to do this and you should get the experience when you are in Oahu. I did 60mins at 4:30 pm time frame. This tour wouldn’t happen without Pilot Alex! Thanks to him, the tour is smooth and enjoyable. Plus he played my favorite songs the whole time!!!

The best helicopter tour ever!
