You may ask, what are Oahu helicopter tours? The answer is: an Oahu helicopter tour is a unique experience that gives you an amazing view of Hawaii like you have never imagined. When you take in the sights riding in a helicopter, high in the air, you get a truly unique perspective of all that there is to see on Oahu. You will see much more than is possible in a day of ground travel because helicopters are fast, making the entire island accessible in a short period of time. Oahu helicopter tours are fun and exciting. The helicopter ride enhances the activity experience and beauty of Oahu. You can see the best sights in Oahu that are inaccessible any other way! One of the best things to do in Waikiki, Oahu, Honolulu, Ko Olina etc. is to experience a helicopter tour.
Flying in a helicopter helps you understand the lay of the land, where your hotel is in relation to various beaches, Waikiki, Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head as well as how Oahu developed throughout history by seeing all the sights from the air. Photography and video from the air is incredible, it just can’t be beat from a doors off helicopter tour! We happen to offer the doors-off option absolutely free. Helicopter tours depart from Honolulu airport and there are free shuttles available. Booking direct is always the best. When your tour is booked online from us, the official owner operator, you know you will receive the best customer service. We love what we do and hope you book your Oahu helicopter tour today!

- "Awesome experience, start to finish 5++ stars!! Staff were wonderfully informative and friendly, yet conveyed the required safety info clearly and professionally! Always felt they had it together, at every moment. I work as an aviation maintenance tech at a major airport. I know how a good ground crew can make or break an operation, and these people just plain nailed it. Really GREAT team ! Now on to the RIDE ! Captain of our Ship was Kyle. I cannot possibly say enough positive things about his skill, personality, professionalism and obvious passion and dedication to his craft. A true artist (without the quirks, lol). I can honestly say the only thing wrong was I wish we had the whole evening. Kyle checked every possible box. Rainbows, waterfalls, whales!! He was super knowledgeable about the island (I wish we would have done the tour FIRST!). We had a slightly ‘airsick’ passenger. As such, Kyle accommodated her condition, whilst not watering down the experience for the rest of us. Bravo, Captain! Doors off is absolutely the way to go! I was on the outboard right side, and completely loved it. I’d go every day with Kyle, though I’m sure the rest of the pilot group is of similar caliber talent ( but request Kyle if you can - he’s that good - makes it seem ridiculously easy. And I know it is not!). Am I satisfied? Completely. Would I recommend Rainbow? Without hesitation. Enjoy your adventure- we certainly did!!! And a special final thanks to Kyle - I will never forget that flight !"
- "We had an amazing experience! Everyone was so kind and helpful. Matt was an awesome pilot! I would highly recommend Rainbow!"
- "It was amazing ….. Mahalo"

- "From purchasing the proposal package, to talking to the photographer, safety, the flight, the crew being discrete, and the landing - I have to say Rainbow Helicopters is the best heli tour I've been on. I can't recommend them more."
- "We had a wonderful crew with Josh and Daniel! Treated us like royalty, very informative during the flight and made some modifications during the trip in order to get our entire event secured for the evening. Low clouds were prevalent due to upcoming storm but after waiting 10 or so minutes, our entire evening was completed without a hitch."
- "One of the most memorable times of our lives! Sarah was a fantastic pilot, tour guide, and DJ. She kept us safe and got us excellent picture opportunities. Thank you again!"
