HAWAII HELICOPTER TOURS

What guests are saying about Rainbow’s most popular Hawaii helicopter tours. 

  1. "What an amazing flight! Conor was an excellent pilot and narrator. Great personality. This is the way to see Oahu! We can’t recommend this open door helicopter ride enough."
    Will and Alison Brookins • Mar 2026
  2. "Once we were in the air, the tour was amazing! Nikki was a great pilot, the views were stunning and it was so cool to see everything from above. Arriving an hour early seemed really unnecessary, as we spent more than 40 minutes just sitting in the lobby with kids getting bored and annoyed, but the actual trip was worth it."
    Heidi • Mar 2026
  3. "Very cool wonderful"
    Xue li Chen • Mar 2026
  4. "I was born and raised on Oahu 9 years before Hawaii became a State and returned to Hawaii for a short vacation. I wanted to see how the island changed. Sarah was our pilot and her knowledge of the island and how she shared this knowledge during our flight was amazing and made a huge impact on me as we saw the island through the eyes of me from 76 years ago and the eyes of Sarah today. I will always remember this flight. We took the hour flight with the doors off and the experience was amazing and one I’d recommend. Pilot Sarah will make you feel safe as she explains everything about the flying experience. The ground staff was very welcoming and kind to us. This was a lifetime experience I hope to repeat again. Mahalo and much Aloha Sarah and Rainbow helicopters"
    Bobby Hipperson • Feb 2026
  5. "Fantastic experience from start to finish. Excellent explanation and safety advice from ground crew. Nikki, our pilot, was amazing - educational, funny and kind - trifeta! - along with being an excellent pilot (with serious onshore winds prevailing). Highly recommend this experience to see the beautiful and historic sites of Hawai'i!"
    Shawna Lucas • Feb 2026
  6. "Ground crew and pilot Gavin were amazing. The views are incredible well worth doing to see the island from a new perspective. Highly recommend, would do again."
    Heather • Feb 2026
  7. "Amazing adventure! Kiana was such a great pilot!! She had wonderful information about the whole island and was great conversation in between! Would absolutely go again!!"
    dan bailey • Jan 2026
  8. "I wasn’t sure how the tour would be as there were ample clouds and spotty rain showers. The tour turned out to be mind blowing - several rainbows, dramatic clouds, and breaks of sun that made the blue water seem like a painting. Our pilot, Sarah, was a joy and super informative. I would do this tour again! 10 out of 10!!!"
    Joseph Schrantz • Jan 2026
  9. "Awesome experience. I highly recommend flying without the doors on!"
    Matt Peters • Jan 2026
  10. "I had a fantastic experience!! I recently got into aviation and the helicopter tour has been on my list ever since. Compared a few companies and decided to go with Rainbow Helicopters for my first experience - and so glad I did 🙂 Am a solo traveler so I called them the day before to confirm my spot, and they accommodated my request for a window seat on a doors-off tour. The ground staff were all very nice and patient, provided all the equipment we needed. The pilot, Ben, is amazing too - he took the time to explain landmarks and features that we were flying over, the weather conditions (we flew through sun, clouds, and rain, and it was awesome), and answered our questions very well. I also can't complain about seeing some really cool planes on our final descent back to the airport 🙂 Would absolutely recommend (and I will do it again next time I come to Oahu!)"
    Sharon Zhou • Jan 2026
  11. "Our group of 6 took the hour long Royal tour with pilot Nikki. We had the doors off experience. Our interaction with the staff prior to the flight was very good. They were attentive and informative. Nikki was THE BEST. She was very informative and took the time to check on everyone during the trip and that both right and left side guests were able to experience the key views of the tour. We recommend Rainbow Helicopters tours for anyone interested in the experience."
    Deo Singh • Dec 2025
  12. "Amazing! The ride itself is breathtaking. Oahu from the air is truly an experience we will never forget."
    Cory • Dec 2025
  13. "We had a spectacular tour with Joey! He knew so many interesting facts about the island, and had answers to all our questions. And the views were absolutely amazing, of course."
    Hayden Metz • Dec 2025
  14. "박JJ 8 reviews • 10 photos starstarstarstarstar 6 hours ago (Translated by Google) This was the best experience of my life. If it's windless and the weather is nice, leave the door off. It's truly amazing. It was safe and fantastic. (Original) 내 인생 최고의 경험이였음. 바람없고 날씨 좋으면 door off로 하세요. 진짜 끝내줍니다. 안전했고 환상적입니다"
    박JJ • Dec 2025
  15. "Awesome, awesome experience. It is a must. The crew was extremely professional and friendly. Thank you, guys."
    Nicu Acost. • Dec 2025
  16. "We had an incredible experience with Nikki at Rainbow Helicopters. Our group of six—including our granddaughters, ages 5 and 8—took the hour-long doors-off tour, and it was absolutely amazing. Seeing the landscape from the air is a completely different perspective. From hidden waterfalls to the waves along the North Shore, we were smiling the entire time. Thank you, Nikki, for such a memorable adventure!"
    Cheryl Schantz • Dec 2025
  17. "Our pilot Ben was great, and we had an amazing experience!!"
    Jorge Amador • Nov 2025
  18. "We flew with Rainbow and had the experience of our lives. What a breathtaking experience. Our pilots were very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Oahu from the air is spectacular. We did doors off and while it was a cloudy dreary day, we still were so impressed with the beauty of the island. We will definitely use them again if given the chance. Our pilots JoJo and Kailee (?) were awesome."
    Robert and Teena • Nov 2025
  19. "Highly recommend a helicopter ride! We selected the open doors option. Our pilot, JoJo, provided a safe, smooth, and enjoyable ride. A relaxing experience that lets you see the island."
    Laura Ruth • Nov 2025

    Dianne Monier • Oct 2025
  24. "We chose to have the doors off and it was fantastic. The day was partly cloudy which gave many rainbows. The pilot was very good in showing us the different sites and was able to answer any question as we flew along. I highly recommend this tour company as they are very professional. I am not sure if this is how it is on all the flights but we had a later flight 3:00pm (with dusk at 6:30pm) which made the ride very smooth."
    John VanderPloeg • Oct 2025
  25. "What a great experience! Nicky was a wonderful pilot and was very friendly and knowledgeable of the landmarks and history of Oahu Would strongly recommend this tour with the doors off! Thank you Nicky!!!"
    Andrew /Carla Ladd • Sep 2025
  1. "Captain Sarah gave us everything anybody might want to know about hot surfing, fishing, military facilities, Oahu history, where the best places are to buy a $65 million dollar house - and so much more. Definitely doors off - it's the most fun. We're very happy that we chose Rainbow helicopter tours."
    Michael Henry • Apr 2026
  2. "Captain Sarah gave us everything anybody might want to know about hot surfing, fishing, military facilities, Oahu history, where the best places are to buy a $65 million dollar house - and so much more. Definitely doors off - it's the most fun. We had a very fun flight."
    Michael Henry • Apr 2026
  3. "하와이로 신혼여행을 하신다면 다른 액티비티는 안 하시더라도, 헬리콥터 투어는 한번 해보세요! 꽤 비싸지만 살면서 헬리콥터 탈일이 언제 있겠어요. Door off로 하와이을 45분 간 날았는데 정말 푸른별 지구라는게 와닿습니다. 안전장치가 있어서 그런지 패러세일링보다 덜 무서웠고, 정말 특별한 경험이었어요. Rainbow Helicopters Oahu"
    Ikim • Mar 2026
  4. "The weather was uncooperative but our pilot Ben made sure we got the most out of our trip. Felt safe and entertained. We strongly recommend. Thanks Ben all who helped make our trip memorable."
    Dale Tea • Feb 2026

    E L Bills • Oct 2025
  9. "Decided to do a last minute helicopter tour on our last day in Oahu and so glad we did. Staff was friendly and walked us through getting flight ready. They recommended doors off and that was absolutely the way to go. Our pilot Nikki was great and made our flight comfortable and enjoyable. The views were spectacular. Highly recommend if you want a fun activity with unforgettable views."
    Juan Orozco • Sep 2025
  10. "First time doing a helicopter ride and it was the best experience ever! The staff members were very helpful the moment we checked in. I had a misunderstanding when I booked the reservation about having the doors off during the helicopter ride, but that checked us in was able to accommodate us and we were able to get on with the doors off. The manager was also helpful by approving the last minute change. Honestly, everyone was just very helpful from the moment we checked in, going over the safety measures, the pilot, and the guy who took pictures of us! We would recommend rainbow helicopters to our peers and would use them again for future flights."
    Evelyn Chacon • Sep 2025
  11. "It was awesome! Staff was knowledgeable, we felt at ease from the time we arrived. It was an easy process and nothing felt rushed. Our pilot was knowledgeable and explained where we were showing highlight of the coast and answered all questions we had. It was an excellent way to end our vacation in Hawaii!"
    Ed and Carol Byers • Aug 2025
  12. "Very welcoming and professional team. Julian, super pilot, and very involved in the animation of his flight, information, explanations of the places flown over. Meeting feeling, very consistent price. To do again."

  19. "신혼여행때 한 액티비티 중 가장 고가였지만 남자친구가 하고싶어해서 겁쟁이 용기냈습니다ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 45분정도 투어했는데 군사지역인 한국에서는 하기 어려운 경험이라 특별했고 저는 겁이 많아서 파일럿 옆에서 닫힌 문에서 탔는데 용기있으신 분은 문짝 떼고 고글 쓰고 바람 다 맞고 구경하시더라구요! 긴팔 긴바지 입었고 멀미약 먹고 갔더니 괜찮았는데 저 겁이 많아서 ㅠㅠㅠㅠ 남자친구가 찍어온 영상으로 구경했어요 ㅋㅋㅋ (Translated by Google) It was the most expensive activity during our honeymoon But my boyfriend wanted to do it so I mustered up my courage lol We toured for about 45 minutes and it was a special experience because it was hard to do in Korea, which is a military area I was scared so I rode next to the pilot with the door closed But those who were brave enough took off the door, put on goggles, and watched while feeling the wind! I wore long sleeves and long pants and took motion sickness medicine and it was fine, but I was scared ㅠㅠㅠㅠ I watched it through a video my boyfriend took lol"

  2. "Rainbow Helicopter was beautiful. The experience was professional while personal and pleasant , the Staff , from office to ramp , and into the helicopter , where we met the pilot , Gavin , staying on top of any needs or concerns. My wife and I are physically challenged , being of a certain age , and helpful staff got us situated with cheerful Aloha Spirit. Gavin was professional , handled the little R44 like a champ , safety first , while keeping up a tour guide level of local knowledge. We like Gavin ! Highly recommend this business !"
    Horace Epperson • Sep 2025
  3. "The Path of the Pali Passage isn’t just an Oahu helicopter ride — it’s a journey through time and terrain, told through clouds and cliffs. The moment we lifted off from Honolulu, the world shifted. The city fell away and the raw, untouched beauty of the Koʻolau Range took over. From above, the mountains aren’t just hills — they’re sleeping dragons, rippling with green, ancient and alive."
    Cynthia T • Aug 2025
  4. "I’ve done sunset cruises, zipline adventures, even skydived once — but nothing compares to the sheer awe I felt during the Path of the Pali Passage tour with Rainbow Helicopters. From the moment we lifted off, I felt like I was stepping into a dream. The city of Honolulu faded below us, and suddenly we were soaring alongside the majestic Koʻolau Mountains, their razor-sharp ridgelines glowing emerald green beneath golden sunlight. The pilot was both hilarious and deeply knowledgeable — like having a National Geographic narrator with a sense of humor guiding us through paradise."
    Jerrold G • Aug 2025
  5. "Rainbow Helicopters was first-class from start to finish: professional, safety-conscious, and deeply respectful of the land. You can tell they love Hawaiʻi, and they make you fall in love with it too."
    Jessica F • Aug 2025
  6. "This was booked for my husband and daughter. They were both nervous but Lucien made them completely comfortable. They said the flight was smooth, enjoyable, fantastic views, and even got local insider info. They would do it again. My kid couldn’t stop smiling afterwards."
    Jennifer • Nov 2024

  19. "We had the most amazing experience. The first booking we had, we were able to take off in the helicopter, but we were unable to do the entire Pali route due to weather. 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! Rainbow Helicopters truly took care of us and we had the most amazing experience because they also upgraded our second trip!!! BEST HELICOPTER COMPANY EVER, BEST EMPLOYEES ♥️ -jacob & shelby"
