Private luxury picnic
- "Wow, just wow! The private luxury picnic Rainbow Helicopter Tour of Oahu was an incredible experience that I will never forget. The views were incredible and the picnic was delicious. The crew was friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The experience was worth every penny and I would do it again in a heartbeat. If you're looking for a unique and unforgettable experience in Oahu, this tour is definitely for you."
A private helicopter ride
- "I was surprised by my now fiancé with a private ride and landing. Nicole is so good at her job of flying and pointing out all the land marks of Oahu. The little details that were part of the engagement were perfect and I’m still in awe of it all. We never felt rushed and they let us take in the beautiful scenery. We had photographer Mark join us too and he was professional, friendly, and got some amazing shots of our special day. I highly recommend this company and Nicole and Mark."
Worth every penny
- "This was my very first time in a helicopter. After I arrived in Hawaii (for a conference plus an extra two days for myself), I know I had to finally do this. After all, I grew up as a kid watching Magnum, P.I., and TC was one of my favorite characters on the show! As to the ride...yes, it is expensive (at least to me), but it IS WORTH IT. It was a fantastic experience to see Honolulu and the surrounding areas from above (as much as 2000 ft). The oceans and mountains are so beautiful. I was never once scared...just amazed, and amazed the whole time. My pilot Freddy was fantastic as well. Very freindly and personable. He asked me questions as well as answered mine. It was a true conversation on top of acting as a tour guide. I cannot recommend him enough. And...do the ride with the doors off. You will be glad that you did!"
