Kauai’s landscape is rugged and many of its breathtaking sights are inaccessible from land, so a helicopter ride is one of the best ways to see the “Garden Isle.” You will soar over the Na Pali coast, Waimea Canyon, Manawaiopuna Falls, Hanapepe Valley, and more. Here are our top-rated helicopter tours on Kauai.
