Jake was our pilot and did a fantastic job. He made us feel safe and gave us a grand tour of Kauai and it’s amazing waterfalls and the Nepali coast.

Expérience incroyable, paysages spectaculaires tout au long du vol. Sensations décuplées avec un vol door-off! Le vol initial avait été reporté la veille, à cause du vent et nous remercions l'équipe de Mauna Loa pour leur professionnalisme.

This by far was one of the best activity we did on the Island. Our pilot was very knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable. Safety was their main priority and we felt safe. First time with the doors off. I would highly recommend these folks. You really need to see the island from this advantage point. Everyone was great from the ladies in the office to the staff on the ground and of course our pilot. Thank you for making our 35th anniversary so memorable.

Everyone we interacted with was amazing. Easy instructions, clear idea of what to expect. Handling of weather was done well during the Kona low and rain, and they told us the schedule so we felt confident we could fit in the tour before we left the island in the afternoon for our flight. Amazing views of the whole island of Kauai were a great compliment to end our trip. It was incredible to see all the major sights of the island in an hour, and great to go into the volcano and see the sheer cli

Amazing flight. Jake was a great pilot and guide. Smooth ride!! Pointed out landmarks and talked about the history of the island. Loved the theme music at Jurassic Falls! Doors off was perfect for the 2 of us to both experience views and capture amazing photos. No better way to see Napali coast, waterfalls and the full island.

Wir hatten die hinteren zwei Plätze und wegen der offenen Türen hatten wir eine tolle Sicht. Der Pilot hat bei den wichtigsten Stellen eine extra Runde gedreht, damit wir beide alles gut sehen konnten. Eng anliegende Kleidung ist sehr sinnvoll.

This was amazing! It was so great to see the aerial aspect of what we'd already seen on our Napali coast tour. Views were fantastic. Ride was smooth. Pilot was very good.

Absolutely amazing! The doors-off flight made it feel like we were soaring through paradise. Smooth, safe, and exhilarating from start to finish. The scenery—towering waterfalls, lush valleys, dramatic cliffs, and sparkling coastline—was breathtaking at every turn. A must-do for anyone visiting Kauai!

We loved it - Micah was a great pilot and an interesting tour guide. I was nervous at first, but quickly got used to the flight and enjoyed all the scenery and sights you couldn't see from the ground. Some things are worth the cost. One suggestion, if at all possible, tie your hair back, even if it is not that long. It gets very tangled.

My husband and I loved seeing all of Kauai’s beauty from a birds-eye point of view. We did the doors off and felt completely safe. Would recommend a windbreaker and maybe some sunglasses/googles just for the wind. Definitely an unforgettable experience. Would absolutely recommend.

Our doors off helecopter experience was incredible and we will definitely refer our family and friends for your experience. Our pilot Chris was not only friendly, he kept us entertained the entire flight. Mahalo

This tour was a last minute decision and did not disappoint! Our pilot Jake took good care of us and made sure we were safe. The doors off option was one not to be missed. Overall the best excursion of our Hawai’i vacation! 5 STARS!!!!!
