Nothing between you and Na Pali but a seatbelt!

Great trip! The only way to see inaccessible parts of the island. Our pilot, Guy, was such a calm and relaxed person. The perfect pilot for a passenger facing fear of heights in a doors off helicopter. If you are prone to motion sickness, I recommend taking something before the trip. However, our pilot said to let him know if either of us was queasy. I'm sure he would have modified the flight path with more gentle turns. The scenery was spectacular. Our pilot spotted a whale spouting and went over the sea so we could see it from above. Then back to the sights over land. He went in and out of many canyons and craters and we had plenty of opportunity to both see the sights and to photograph them as well. We highly recommend!
Highly recommend!!

We had the best experience with our pilot Chrissy! The views are spectacular for sure, and she did a great job explaining the terrain and all the beautiful features of Kauai. We felt safe and secure in the helicopter and we loved everything about the ride.
#1 Excursion to do!!

It was so exciting and beautiful that you never realized you were in a helicopter with doors off. The landscape kept Your attention before you knew it time was up. We recommend this excursion at beginning of your stay then you can decide what areas to explore further. Our first helicopter ride & it was fantastic as was our pilot Chrissy. All staff was welcoming and friendly put you at ease right away.
WE LOVED THIS EXCURSION IMMENSELY!!!
Thanx to everyone!!

From our 7 year old grandson: "It was loud and cool and awesome. My favorite part was we were flying really high in the air." From the mom: "Flying without the door is not to be missed. I felt like I was in my own private David Attenborough special. Our pilot was sweet, knowledgable and skilled."
Well worth the money!

This was our one big vacation splurge and it was worth every penny! Amazing views, polite and friendly crew, and I felt very safe in the well experienced pilot's hands. We were able to ask questions and communicate while in flight, and having the doors open with no middle seat made picture taking a breeze. Most of this island is inaccessible any other way. Do it!
Do NOT miss this!!!

Doors-off changes this from a helicopter ride to an immersive experience that was incredible!!!
Phenomenal maneuvers up and into canyons, along the coast, and bonus whale sighting!!! Kyle was a superb pilot, a wonderful guide, and just a delight.
DO NOT MISS THIS!!!
Awesome Adventure

While you pay a bit more for this thrilling experience, it rewards with gifted, experienced pilot Guy Croydon whose geological commentary and fascinating narration opened a whole new view of Kauai’s history and formation. It was the highlight of our holiday!! Open door is the way to go! Briefing was thorough and reassuring.
