What you'll see and do
Halawa Valley
Your two-island Hawaiian helicopter adventure begins at the heliport in Kahului, Maui, where you'll meet your expert pilot and strap into your sky-bound chariot. After liftoff, admire the views out of the helicopter’s panoramic windows as the horizon extends for miles. Spot surfers catching waves, and see the jungle canopy from above on your way to the island of Molokai. Explore this less-visited island from the comfort of your helicopter, cruising past the world’s tallest sea cliffs, which stand at a height of more than 3,000 feet (914 meters). Get your camera ready for Kahiwa Falls, some of the tallest waterfalls in the Hawaiian Islands, and look down on the serene and remote north shore. Catch a glimpse of the dramatic Halawa Valley and the Molokai fish ponds, and then fly above the Pailolo Channel between the islands.

Best experience of our trip to Maui
We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Maverick Helicopters and couldn’t be happier with our choice. Our pilot, John, was outstanding. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and gave us a lot of interesting information throughout the flight. What we really appreciated was that he never made the experience feel rushed — he took the time to make sure we could properly enjoy and see all the incredible scenery along the way. Our original flight had to be rescheduled because of poor weather, and we actually really appreciated the fact that the team prioritized safety rather than trying to operate in less-than-ideal conditions. Jules at the front desk was excellent and quickly found us a great alternative for the following day. Everything was handled smoothly and professionally. The next day, the weather was perfect and the flight was simply unforgettable. To make the experience even more special, at the end of the tour the General Manager had a lovely surprise for our son, who was celebrating his 10th birthday. It was such a thoughtful gesture and really meant a lot to us. From beginning to end, the level of customer service was exceptional. Everyone we dealt with was friendly, professional and genuinely seemed to care about making the experience memorable. We had read all the extremely positive reviews before booking and, after experiencing Maverick ourselves, we can honestly say they are not exaggerated at all. A huge thank you to John, Jules and the whole Maverick team. We are so glad we chose you and would recommend this experience without hesitation.

Best Experience in Maui!
By far one of our favorite excursions on any trip we have ever taken! We spent an hour seeing the beauty of Molokai and Maui. Our pilot was extremely personable and knowledgable. The flight included my husband and myself along with another couple and it was great to be able to see everything. Worth every penny and recommend for anyone!
Response from the operator: We are happy to hear that you and your husband had the best experience flying with us on our Molokai Voyage! Mahalo for sharing and for choosing Maverick Helicopters for your excursion.

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Deluxe Helicopter Tour of Molokai and Maui: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Maui.
How much does Deluxe Helicopter Tour of Molokai and Maui cost?
+
Prices start at $395 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Maui usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Deluxe Helicopter Tour of Molokai and Maui take?
+
Plan for about 0.9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Maui is not rushed.
Is Deluxe Helicopter Tour of Molokai and Maui worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 346 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Maui, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Deluxe Helicopter Tour of Molokai and Maui?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Deluxe Helicopter Tour of Molokai and Maui suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Deluxe Helicopter Tour of Molokai and Maui?
+
Around 121 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Maui can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Maui and add a light layer if any part of the 0.9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Deluxe Helicopter Tour of Molokai and Maui start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Maui within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Maui?
+
Maui's three signature days are the Hana road, the Haleakala summit sunrise and the Molokini snorkel sail, and all three are logistics problems as much as experiences. Sunrise summit entry is permit-controlled, Hana is a ten-hour driving day, and Molokini boats vary wildly in size. Our ranking rewards operators who handle permits and keep boat capacity low. On Outty we rank every Maui experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Molokini Crater + South Maui Coast Adventure from Kihei, Maui, Maui: VIP Private Road to Hana Tour with Pick Up, Road to Hana Adventure Maui Tour with Lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Maui?
+
April to May and September to October. Whale season runs December to April. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Maui?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
