    What you'll see and do

    1. Na Pali Coast State Wilderness Park

      Fly along the entire beautiful and amazing Na Pali Coast of Kauai. Every seat is a window seat, and with us you spend more time gazing at the Na Pali Coast than any other air tour.

      15 minutes here

    2. Kipu Kai

      Only airplanes include the lovely Kipu Kai and the entire Poipu shoreline of Kauai. The helicopters don't have time for this. We see so much more and have ample time for whale watching along the entire Poipu shoreline.

      15 minutes here

    3. Waimea Canyon State Park

      We fly the entire Waimea Canyon and see numerous waterfalls below us. The brown, eroded landscape is in sharp contrast the green of the garden isle seen everywhere else. The "Grand Canyon of the Pacific" is a must see.

      10 minutes here

    4. Manawaiopuna Falls (Jurassic Park Falls)

      Weather permitting we like to fly over this waterfall. It is actually three waterfalls in a line, and one of only 100 you will see on this trip, this one best known for the movie Juraissic Park.

      Pass by without stopping

    5. Mt. Waialeale

      Sometimes called the Crater because it has walls on three sides, this is a beautiful example of abundant waterfalls on Kauai. We love to fly alongside, the waterfalls off the wing tip, a truly amazing experience which we love to share with you.

      10 minutes here

    6. Hanalei Bay

      Hanalei Bay is one of our largest, and beautiful to see. After passing the bay we fly up Hanalei Valley and the 100's of waterfalls, really ribbons of water gushing down from the sky are on all sides off the wings and underneath the plane, a truly amazing view to behold.

      10 minutes here

    The plane had room for...

    The plane had room for six, but because I came solo, the pilot let me sit in the co-pilot's seat. It was easily the best seat on the plane. We had great weather. We had a few little bumps, but the pilot, Kekoa, was excellent in keeping us informed. His intimate knowledge of the land, his humor, and easygoing demeanor made the trip educational and fun at the same time. This was the highlight of my short trip to Kauai and now I feel like I have to go back!

    Very smooth slight over astoundingly beautiful vistas

    Travis was very personable and provided entertaining and informative commentary on all the points of interest during the flight. I noticed he was continually actively engaged with the controls to minimize bumpiness so it was an unusually smooth flight for a small airplane. He is both a very talented pilot and a great tour guide. The scenery was simply drop-dead gorgeous.

    We had a great flight. Koa was an excellent pilot. He made sure bith sides of the plane got tremendous views. Plane over Kauai is the only way to go!

    Awesome adventure, beautiful scenery

    Our pilot, Travis, was a wonderful guide. For a brief window, we were able to see the top of the highest peak. Great views of central mountains, Waimea Canyon, the Cathedrals, Napali coast, Hanalei Bay and waterfalls. Highly recommend doing this as an alternative to a Napali Coast cruise or a bounce-y helicopter tour.

    Kauai Deluxe Sightseeing Flight: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kauai.

    How much does Kauai Deluxe Sightseeing Flight cost?

    +

    Prices start at $159 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kauai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Kauai Deluxe Sightseeing Flight take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.1 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 Kauai is not rushed.

    Is Kauai Deluxe Sightseeing Flight worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 2,379 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Kauai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Kauai Deluxe Sightseeing Flight?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Kauai Deluxe Sightseeing Flight suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Kauai Deluxe Sightseeing Flight?

    +

    Around 833 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 Kauai 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 Kauai and add a light layer if any part of the 1.1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Kauai Deluxe Sightseeing Flight 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 Kauai 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 Kauai?

    +

    Kauai sells Na Pali Coast boat and helicopter tours, Waimea Canyon drives, tubing through old plantation ditches and Hanalei kayak trips. Ocean conditions shut down the north shore boat runs in winter, so cancellation terms matter. On Outty we rank every Kauai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Koloa Zipline in Kauai, Kauai: NaPali Boat Tour on the Amelia K, Kauai: Secret Falls Kayak and Hike. 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 Kauai?

    +

    April to June and September to October, with calmest seas in summer. 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 Kauai?

    +

    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.
