WHAT MAKES IT VIP
Two things most Oahu helicopter tours cannot promise: every seat is a window seat, and the pilot flies only your group. You also choose doors on or doors off at no extra cost, which elsewhere is usually a separate, pricier product.
THE ROUTE
The flight leaves Honolulu Airport and follows Waikiki’s shoreline, then runs past Diamond Head, Koko Head and the Makapu’u Point Lighthouse. It turns north up the windward coast over Kailua Beach, Chinaman’s Hat and Kaneohe Bay, continues to Jurassic Valley and Sacred Falls, and crosses the North Shore for Banzai Pipeline and Waimea Bay. It closes with a slow pass over Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial.
PRICING
$395.00 per person, with a minimum of two and a maximum of four passengers per helicopter. Larger groups fly in two helicopters side by side. Verified against FareHarbor, September 2026. Confirm current rates at booking.
