"Oh my goodness! It took us a week just to calm down. What......a......spectacular......way...to........see......this......island!!! Unreal views combined with great company, then, sprinkle in a little history, and we got ourselves a memory etched into the center of our minds. Its been over a week and we are still talking about how it almost seems like it didn't really happen. But then we have the footage to back it up so it must have. Seriously though, this is not a waste of money. This is something special. Make sure you wear the phone holder. Would have lost it for sure if it was not for that. Thanks so much Rainbow! We will be back."

"Had a fab 50th birthday! My husband and I were on our trip with another couple with 6yr old.empty seat in the middle. Plenty of space. I had door off seat and whilst I was initially anxious ,I enjoyed the thrilling ride and Ida was our pilot for our trip.
She was an amazing pilot.Very knowledgeable and we both felt really safe in the air.It was a great experience with the doors off and well worth the money as we researched other companies beforehand."

"We recently had the pleasure of taking the Royal Crown of Oahu Helicopter Tour with Rainbow Helicopters, and it was an unforgettable experience! Our pilot, Lucien, was absolutely fantastic. Not only was he an incredibly skilled pilot, making us feel safe and comfortable throughout the flight, but he was also very informative, sharing fascinating insights about the island’s history and landmarks. Note: We chose to fly with the doors off. Highly recommend that.
The tour offered breathtaking views of Oahu, from the stunning coastline to the lush mountain ranges. Lucien’s narration really enhanced the experience, and we felt like we learned so much while taking in the natural beauty of the island. The whole experience was smooth, from the booking process to the tour itself.
If you're visiting Oahu and want to see the island from a unique perspective, we highly recommend this helicopter tour! Lucien and the team at Rainbow Helicopters made it an experience we’ll never forget."

"This was definitely the highlight of my trip! We circled most of the island and then crossed over where the Dole plantation is located. It showed just how lush Oahu is in some places. It is also different to see the beaches from about. Our pilot, Emma was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. I highly recommend doing this tour!"

"My family and I went on a tour with Rainbow and chose the doors off experience. This was by far my favorite part of the trip. The views were absolutely beautiful around the entirety of the island. We had Lucien as our pilot and he was amazing as well! He was very knowledgeable when it came to the history of the island and the sites we seen as well as made us all feel comfortable throughout the duration of the flight. I believe that this tour is a must when visiting the islands and would definitely recommend to anyone visiting!"

"My sister and I took our 89-year-old Mother on this trip. The staff was amazing assisting her in and out of the helicopter. We did doors open. We would highly recommend everyone doing this. My Mom did get a little cool with wind blowing even with her raincoat on. On the other side, I was just fine but glad I had my raincoat as it was windy. Our flight was at 5 pm. Beautiful scenery. We loved seeing the mountains on the island from above. This will be an experience we cherish doing with our Mom. Pilot, Ida was wonderful and provided interesting facts all the way. We didn't talk with her much during the flight as we were so involved in viewing. Thanks from the Evans Family"

"Best way to see the whole island! I did a 45 minute flight. I saw the whole island which is amazing as I am not likely to see it all whilst here on my trip. The doors off experience was fabulous. Our pilot was knowledgeable and kind."

"An incredible way to see Oahu!
I wish I had done this as soon as I arrived because you get a really good understanding of the island and where everything is.
Our pilot Josh did a wonderful job at explaining all the different sights and was great at giving us a heads up whenever there was turbulence (only happened twice and very briefly). I generally get motion sickness when I travel but Josh was very smooth with take off and landing.
I highly recommend the experience! You’ll never forget it."

"We arrived early, were quickly processed, and put on a flight almost an hour early. We didn't book a private flight but were upgraded to private when we arrived, which was lovely and much appreciated. Julian was our pilot and he was fantastic! Very friendly, funny, and knowledgeable of the island. We did a doors off tour and it was great. It was really cool to see the island from so high up. They warn you it's windy but it was still so much windier than we expected, especially for anyone in the back seats. I had to hold my headset on the whole time to keep it from blowing off because it wouldn't tighten enough to stay put with the strong winds. Overall it was a great experience and we'd recommend everyone take this tour. It's immediately become one of our favorite experiences in Hawaii to date!"

"YA GIRL GOT ENGAGED ON ONE OF THESE HELI'S. We went on the 45 min tour with pilot Julian. Originally, we were going to be in the big shared helicopter but it was unavailable at our tour time. The staff ended up giving us a private tour in one of the smaller helicopters and it was awesome. Julian was so friendly and honestly treated us like old friends. He had cool facts to share and was very personable. I 10000% recommend. It was beyond beautiful and such a wild and cool way to see the island.
I will say, we went on the 4pm tour which was super nice since the sunset was at 5:45pm. There was still a lot of light but not beating down. My videos came out great. I wore a sweatshirt and shorts with doors off and by the end of the 45 mins was a little chilly. It is December though so maybe during summer it's not as bad.. either way 100% do the doors off!"

"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!"

"This may have been my confusion, but I Thought our flight was supposed to be my in-land (to see some waterfalls that can't be seen from roads or hiking in?), but our flight just went on the outskirts of the island. I wasn't sure if this was due to the fact that the weather was not as great that day or just my misunderstanding. However, we still really enjoyed our flight and did get to see some areas we had not seen from the ground. Our pilot was very friendly and knowledgeable, and all other staff were very friendly as well. Overall, a great experience."

I was so sad, then the staff turned it around and made sure that we got the full experience, offered to reschedule us, and were the kindest people. These employees are amazing!!! I can't remember the name of the girl who helped us reschedule and took care of us, I think it was Kamalani, but she was the SWEETEST!
