Select participants and date
Taking to the skies from Kahului, the West Maui and Molokai 60-Minute Helicopter Tour offers an unparalleled perspective on some of Hawaii’s most dramatic natural features. As the helicopter lifts off, the dense green ridges of the West Maui Mountains emerge, their sharp peaks and deep valleys breathing ancient stories into the clouds. The landscape shifts beneath you — dormant volcanoes marked by jagged lava flows give way to tropical rainforests that clutch the mountainsides, while cascading waterfalls tumble into hidden pools and valley floors.
