RAINBOW HELICOPTER TOURS • OAHU, HAWAII
“Great experience! Definitely something to do. The hour long flight was just long enough and the pilot, Kyle, was knowledgeable and personable. Having the doors off is worth it for the unobstructed views and experience.”

Amazing experience
- "Everything from the signage, facilities, crew and helicopter was great. The crew was welcoming and made the check-in process very easy, and along with their smiles made our first experience awesome. Our pilot Oliver was outstanding and interacted constantly with us, pointing key landmarks; the flught was smooth alll the way from beginning to end. Thabks for the amazing experience!!!""It was amazing! Our pilot Joey was very knowledgeable and fun as a guide. We were on a doors off tour and I would recommend it even for someone apprehensive about it. You get full view of the beautiful island and some areas you may not be able to get to on the ground.""We had an amazing experience! Everyone was so kind and helpful. Matt was an awesome pilot! I would highly recommend Rainbow!""It was amazing, words can’t describe the view""We had Tobias as are captain and had an absolutely amazing experience. Tobias was very knowledgeable about the island and was able to take us to some amazing places. We choose the doors of experience and it was the perfect choice for are group. I would 100% recommend doing this if you can. You will get views of the island most people never see.""Was an amazing Helicopter Island Tour with Tobias! Tobias was an expert Driver, he knows everything about the Island! I will recommend the company for my friends! Mahalo Tobias! Tank skal du ha Tobias! :)"
Well worth it
- "My wife and I have been living on island for 2 1/2 years which made this experience even more amazing. The helicopter tour was fun and the sights were breathtaking. We saw all of the places we know and love from a new perspective. This helicopter tour was definitely worth the money.""This helicopter tour was an amazing experience. You will get to see parts of the island you are unable to see driving around the island. My pilot Riley was very knowledgeable and friendly. He made us feel safe and was a great pilot. Highly recommend doing the tour. Worth the money.""Absolutely incredible! had to wait a little bit due to the weather, which is expected being on an island. The views were magnificent and the pilot "Carson" was excellent we had open door, what I would fully recommend if you're not scared of heights. service was great and well worth the money, we did the 45-minute tour, which was plenty of time. Mahalo!!!""Wonderful time! It was definitely worth the money. Getting to see the island in a way like no other. I would highly recommend taking the time to do this if you get the chance! The staff was also amazing!""If you havent done it, it’s worth the money! Absolutely breathtaking sights and the best way to get familiar with the island""Sarah was amazing! Tour was amazing and well worth the money!"
We loved it
- "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 !""This was a wonderful experience! We did the hour long doors off tour and loved it. The whole team was great and our pilot JoJo was very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!""We had Kyle as a pilot and he was great and narrated the whole flight. We all were impressed with Kyle!! The only thing is we booked a doors off and last minute we were told one door had to be closed. If it was for safety reasonings based on guest weight we would understand but we weren't given a reason. Other than that, we loved it and I would definitely don't again!""Gorgeous! Easygoing pilot made me feel very comfortable. Kids (5 & 8) loved it, too. I'd say this is a must-do!""Very courteous and accommodating staff. First helicopter ride ever and was very informative with unique views. My grands loved it very much.""The flight was amazing. It was my first helicopter tour and I loved it. I would definitely go with Novictor when in Hawaii again. Our pilot Paul made the trip even more interesting and special, giving us time to see the views and information about the island, he was awesome. We loved every bit of it."
Make A Wish
“Thank you all for a better than expected experience for Maddie, Derek and I. We are here on a Make A Wish trip. The helicopter tour was our gift to her since Make A Wish doesn’t allow helicopter rides for insurance reasons. She is a Stage IV Hodgkin’s Lymphoma survivor. She was diagnosed late February 2021 and went through 6 cycles of chemotherapy. She completed her treatment in July of 2021. She wants to go to college and become a Marine Biologist so what better way to to see the most spectacular ocean views but in Hawaii. We have only been here in Honolulu a few days and have seen the most majestic views. Josh entertained us with his knowledge of the island and surpassed all expectations with our sunset tour.”

Tobias our pilot was excellent and did a great job of pointing out most all of the top landmarks. The flight was smooth and comfortable all the way around the Island. The only downside was the time passed way too fast! Thank you Tobias for an experience of a lifetime.""This is a great addition to any Oahu vacation! Our pilot was very pleasant and knowledgeable about the entire island. He pointed out all major areas and would pause so we could snap pictures. Great experience!!""Was an amazing Helicopter Island Tour with Tobias! Tobias was an expert Driver, he knows everything about the Island! I will recommend the company for my friends! Mahalo Tobias!

- "We had an amazing experience! Everyone was so kind and helpful. Matt was an awesome pilot! I would highly recommend Rainbow!""We had an awesome time! Oliver was a great pilot and host, giving us the landmarks and information. He was on the watch for whales, spotting some and circling back around for us to see. A highlight of our final spring break with kids leaving for college.""This was the highlight of our trip. Doors off made it even more memorable. Seeing the island from above gave us a completely new perspective. Our pilot Harley was so informative, with the various landmarks and history, not to mention great piloting skills on a very windy day.""Amazing experience! Everyone at Rainbow was super friendly and helpful. Our pilot, Oliver was knowledgeable and pointed out a lot of the sights during our flight. This was a bucket list item, and it exceeded my expectations! By the way, doing the flight with doors off is the way to go!""Awesome flight, from the start at the office to the flight, everything was great. the ground crew were professional at every step and Kyle, our pilot was wonderful. He pointed out so many areas along the flightpath that we would not have noticed.
