Private Kauai Doors On & Off Na Pali Coast Air Tour - Mauna Loa Helicopter

Reaching for new heights

Reviewed by: KelseyEric

My husband, Eric, and I were excited to ride in a helicotper ride while on our honeymoon. It was a first time adventure for either of us as we had never 1) been to Hawaii before and 2) ridden a helicopter before. The adventure happened early in the day, and we enjoyed some beautiful sites. I particularly enjoyed seeing the beautiful clear water of the ocean and the rust colored Waimea Canyon.

The tour was a great way to see the southern part of the island and learn a lot of history about the island. Our guide, Rosario, was great. He was knowledgeable, friendly and answered all our questions. I would definitely recommend this tour.

5-Hour Liko Kauai Catamaran Tour - Na Pali Coast Sea Caves & Snorkel with Lunch

The views were amazing!

Reviewed by: Johnson Family

The boat ride was great- seeing the Na Pali coast from the Pacific was incredible. The tour guide was a fantastic guide, sharing stories about the history of Kaua’i , including her connections through her great grandparents. Learning about the land and history over time made a lasting impression. Hearing about the connections to movie settings was also cool. We encountered spinner dolphin pod and it was exciting to see so many surfacing and putting on a show. The snorkeling was Awesome, it was great how the boat had a specific location to secure to that was near the reef. Snorkeling was very organized and I felt safe. We saw many colored fish and even a sea turtle.

I appreciated the introduction before we started the tour and the guidance if we felt seasick. I was unfortunately one who experienced sea sickness about halfway through the trip, where we encountered the roughest water. The crew was compassionate and offered comforts. I felt better as we headed toward calmer waters and snorkeling location and was able to enjoy the snorkeling.

We had 5 in our traveling party and all were very impressed with the sights-totally worth it!

Gorgeous views

Reviewed by: Emily

We really enjoyed this cruise! We went in Nov so the beginning of winter there. Waters were just starting to get a little rougher. No one in our group gets seasick so we had no issues but some others on the cruise that were prone to seasickness were struggling a little. The staff were all super friendly and shared a lot about the history along the coast, films that were shot there, and other recommendations in the area. Highly recommend!

Scenic Kauai Airplane Tour to Na Pali Coast, Waimea Canyon, and Jurassic Falls

Airplane tour was amazing! Pilot was great!

Reviewed by: Sydney Bale

Would do this again in a heartbeat! The views were like nothing I’ve ever seen before!
We took our family of 5 (we have 3 boys) my 8 and almost 4 year old loved it but my 2.5 yr old had a hard time. And I couldn’t figure out what was wrong. I’m thinking ears not adjusting to the height or maybe even motion sickness. But he did not do good. He’s usually a very very easy going toddler. So keep that in mind if you have young children. I would love to do it again without my kids so I could enjoy the breathtaking views without stress

My helicopter tour in Kauai was a truly wonderful experience! The views of the island from the air were absolutely breathtaking, and our pilot did an incredible job navigating and providing fascinating insights throughout the flight. Kauai’s natural beauty is awe-inspiring, and seeing it from above made it even more magical. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience the full splendor of the island. A must-do when visiting Kauai!

Aloha and mahalo for the wonderful words! 🌺🚁 We’re so happy to hear that your tour over Kaua‘i was everything you hoped for and more! There’s truly nothing like soaring above the lush valleys, waterfalls, and cliffs to take in the island’s magic from a whole new perspective. Huge shoutout to your pilot for making it both informative and unforgettable! We’re a small team with a big love for this island, and it means the world to share it with awesome guests like you.

エアバン遊覧飛行 カウアイ島の絶景を上空から堪能!ワイメア渓谷、ナ・パリ・コースト、ハナペペ渓谷、ジュラシック・パークに登場の滝<英語ガイド/リフエ空港発>

The scenery and service were both wonderful!! 景色もサービスも素晴らしかったです!!

Reviewed by: にあ

I participated with my mother.

Both the customers and the staff were very kind, and we were blessed with good weather, making it a wonderful experience.

Route:
The route included Poipu Beach, Waimea Canyon, the Na Pali Coast, the North Shore, the forested areas in central Kauai, and a loop around the island of Kauai.

Meeting Place:
The meeting place is the terminal next to the passenger terminal at Lihue Airport, where cargo flights take off and land. There is a map link included in the notification email, so I don't think there will be any mistakes. Once everyone has gathered, there will be a safety briefing.

Expected Level of Turbulence:
The flight I boarded had relatively calm winds, so there was little turbulence like free-fall (I felt a drop of about 30 centimeters three or four times). Additionally, if you are prone to motion sickness, you can inform the staff at check-in, and they will change your seat to one in the back.

母親と2人で参加しました。

お客さんもスタッフさんもとても優しく、天気にも恵まれ、大変良い体験ができました。

航路:
ポイプビーチ、ワイメアキャニオン、ナ・パリコースト、ノースシォア、カウアイ島中心部の樹林帯とカウアイ島を一周する航路でした。

集合場所:
集合場所はリフエ空港旅客機ターミナルの隣のカーゴなどが離発着するターミナルになります。
事前の通知メールにマップのリンクもついていますので、間違えることはないかと思います。
全員揃ったことを確認して、安全に関する案内があります。

期待の揺れ具合:
搭乗した便は風が比較的穏やかな時間だったので、フリーフォールのような揺れ方は少なかったです。(大体30センチ程度落ちる感覚が3,4回ありました。)
また、酔いやすい人は受付で申告すると後ろの席にチェンジしてくれます。

Experience the charm of Kauai! カウアイ島の魅力を体験できる!

Reviewed by: Yone

I was able to fully enjoy the nature-rich Kauai Island. I truly had a wonderful experience.

Of course, I got to see the Fern Grotto and Waimea Canyon, known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific, as well as the valleys and waterfalls visible along the way. The lunch sandwiches were delicious too! In addition to the beautiful natural scenery, we also stopped by a Kauai coffee shop where I could enjoy some very drinkable coffee. The driver and guide were friendly and skilled at driving. I would like to sign up for a tour with Polynesian Adventure again on my future travels.

自然豊かなカウアイ島を満喫することができました。本当に良い想いをさせてもらいました。

シダの洞窟や太平洋のグランド・キャニオンと呼ばれるワイメア渓谷はもちろん、道中にて見える渓谷や滝なども見ることができます。ランチのサンドイッチも美味しかったです!また、自然豊かな場所に加えカウアイコーヒーショップに寄ることができます。とても飲みやすいコーヒーを飲むこともできます。ドライバー兼ガイドの方も気さくですし、運転も上手です。今後も旅行の際にはPolynesian Adventureさんのツアーに申し込みたいと思いました。
