Depart from Waikoloa on a once-in-a-lifetime tour. From lush tropical rainforest to dry, desert-like land, the Kohala coast has some of the most beautiful scenery on the Big Island. Get a birds eye view of beautiful waterfalls cascading thousands of feet into the rainforest below, where remnants of ancient Hawaiian settlements are still visible. Named after the oldest volcanic mountain, the Kohala Mountains dominate the area and are considered by many to be the most spectacular landscape in Hawaii. The ultimate add on to your tour, take in the absolute wonder as your pilot descends amongst the lush flora and fauna along 1,200 foot cliffs to a grassy landing pad. Step out of your helicopter at the edge of a fresh water pool and the thundering waterfall. Enjoy the multitude of cascading waterfalls and serene landscape of the mile-wide valley.

Q&A

Q: Are there any age restrictions for the helicopter tour? Can kids join?

A: Yes, there are age restrictions. Kids as young as 2 can join, but keep in mind that they need to be able to wear the headphones. It's a great family-friendly experience, but I’d recommend making sure they’re okay with the height and noise. Also, just to note, most tours have a maximum weight limit of around 300 lbs for each passenger.

Q: What's the best time of year for this tour? Does weather affect it?

A: The best time for the tour is generally between April and October when the weather is clearer. However, the tour can be affected by rain, especially in the winter months. The company tends to be great about rescheduling if weather is bad, so just keep that in mind. I went in September and the views were stunning!

Q: What should I wear for the helicopter tour? Is it cold up there?

A: You should definitely dress in layers! It can be a bit chilly up there, especially if you're flying early in the morning or later in the evening. I'd recommend wearing a light jacket and comfortable shoes since you'll be landing near the waterfall, and don’t forget sunglasses to protect your eyes from the sun reflecting off the water!

Thinking about getting the Kohala Waterfalls helicopter tour as a gift!

Hey guys! I’m considering this helicopter tour for my parents' anniversary. They love adventure and have always wanted to see Hawaii from above. The idea of landing by a waterfall sounds amazing! Just wanted to hear if anyone has done this tour and any tips or must-knows. I want to make sure it’s as special as possible for them!

Anyone else nervous about flying in a helicopter?

I’m trying to book the Kohala Waterfalls tour, but I’m kinda nervous about flying in a helicopter. I’ve never done it before! I really want to see those waterfalls from above, but just a little worried about the height. Do you guys think it's worth it? Any tips for a first-timer?
