About this experience
There's nothing quite like seeing Oahu from above, and Mauna Loa Helicopter Tours delivers the island's most exclusive aerial adventure with their Private Oahu Experience in Honolulu. This 60-minute VIP tour takes off from Honolulu airport with your own dedicated pilot, guaranteeing every passenger a window seat for unobstructed views of the island's most spectacular landmarks.
Your journey begins over Waikiki's iconic shoreline, where Honolulu's bustling skyline gives way to pristine white sand beaches. Following the leeward coast, you'll glide past Diamond Head crater, Koko Head, and the historic Makapu'u Point Lighthouse before turning north along the windward side. The turquoise waters of Kailua Beach unfold below, followed by the unmistakable silhouette of Chinaman's Hat and Kaneohe Bay's vibrant coral reefs.
As you venture deeper into the island's heart, Jurassic Valley and Sacred Falls reveal themselves in stunning detail. The legendary North Shore awaits next-here you'll witness the raw power of Banzai Pipeline and Waimea Bay from a perspective few ever experience. Your pilot caps off this comprehensive island tour with a meaningful flyover of Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona, honoring this sacred memorial site.
Choose between doors-on or doors-off flying at no extra charge to customize your viewing experience. Starting from $395 per person, this private helicopter tour accommodates 2-4 passengers (minimum 2 required), with larger groups flying side by side in two helicopters. Perfect for ages 6 and older with a minimum recommended weight of 30 pounds, though individual seat weight cannot exceed 285 pounds.
This Private Oahu Experience in Honolulu offers an unmatched way to see Hawaii's gathering place from above. Book with 24-hour advance notice and plan to arrive 30 minutes early for check-in.
