Hawaii Scout

What is the best helicopter tour company in Oahu?

Four operators compete for the best Oahu helicopter tour. Rainbow Helicopters (05–1180) offers the widest route selection and aircraft variety, from small R44s to large turbine ships. Magnum Helicopters (80–434) provides a mid-range option with consistent reviews and FareHarbor booking convenience. Mauna Loa Helicopters covers Oahu among other islands with competitive pricing (05+). Blue Hawaiian flies their premium EC130 fleet on Oahu tours (79+). For sheer value and route flexibility, Rainbow Helicopters edges ahead on Oahu — their Circle Island tours reveal the island's dramatic Windward cliffs and North Shore from an unbeatable perspective. All four operators maintain strong safety records. Book directly with any operator for the best rate and confirm whether your preferred route includes Na Pali-style Windward cliff passes over the Ko'olau Mountains.
