Fly over the stunning sights of East Maui and soar deep into the isolated interior of the West Maui Mountains on this 60-minute helicopter tour. This exciting flight takes you above the Hana Rainforest, gives you a peek inside the volcanic Haleakalā Crater, and glides you over to West Maui Volcano, engulfed in lava flows and surrounded by craggy cliffs and cascading waterfalls. Includes narration from a professional pilot-guide.
Make your way to Kahului Heliport and hop aboard a luxury, air-conditioned helicopter, which holds six passengers in forward-facing leather seats. Once you’re airborne, sit back and listen to stereo music and descriptive narration from the professional pilot, who also serves as your tour guide.
Throughout the 1-hour flight, enjoy unobstructed views while you soar above Maui’s extreme landscapes, including the dense Hana Rainforest of East Maui. Look down on waterfalls and the jaw-dropping Haleakala Crater, a dormant volcano with a summit reaching more than 10,000 feet (3,050 meters) above sea level in Haleakala National Park.
After these sights, your flight continues to the West Maui Mountains, aka West Maui Volcano or Maui Komohana to native Hawaiians, best seen from the air. Snap photos of the diverse landscape including rugged lava flows, rainforest and deep valleys filled with cascading waterfalls such as the ‘Wall of Tears,’ a cliff draped with dozens of falls.
Learn about Maui’s history, geology, vegetation and wildlife from your pilot as you fly, and take in a view of the neighboring island of Molokai that can only be seen from the air before returning to the ground.
After landing, you can purchase a USB containing footage of your flight that includes the pilot’s narration set to background music.
