Soar over Oahu on our most popular private helicopter charter with a gourmet local picnic. Enjoy a secluded landing in the Ko’olau Mountains, and visit a private scenic valley for a luxury picnic helicopter charter you won’t soon forget. Your 60 minute stay at this idyllic hide-away includes a freshly made gourmet lunch or dinner accompanied by local juices, champagne, Waialua Estate chocolates and flower leis to commemorate your special occasion. This private helicopter tour begins at the Honolulu airport and sweeps over all of Oahu’s most beautiful and cherished landmarks. Whether it’s a proposal, an anniversary or just a way to say “Let’s celebrate!” this V.I.P. experience will sweep everyone off their feet in more ways than one!
You’ll begin this private helicopter charter taking in stunning views of the famous Waikiki skyline as Diamond Head Crater’s iconic shape lies ahead as the most perfect backdrop. You’ll be soaking in the majestic beauty of the South Shore, quickly realizing its natural authority over “The Gathering Place”. Rounding the million-dollar ridges, you’ll pass Hanauma Bay, watching as gentle, sandy beaches turn to jagged volcanic cliffs carved out by the relentless surge of the rough waters below. On your way, you’ll glide over top of the charming Makapu’u lighthouse to witness her radiant red beam outward to unknown ships at sea.
As you continue your tour up the island’s Windward Coast, you’ll see the storied Ko’olau mountains in the distance, quietly watching as you pass over Lanikai Beach – often called the most marvelous beach in the world – and the offshore sandbars and coral formations that make Kaneohe Bay one of the most picturesque places on Earth.
As you fly over a stunning valley, the truly special part of this royal tour begins. A tender descent from the heavens presents a unique opportunity to witness from the ground the magnificent sights you’ve viewed from the sky. After a gentle landing, your pilot becomes your “Aloha Maitre’d”, escorting you to a private pavilion perfectly situated in a 4000-acre paradise with lush, green landscapes, mountains that stretch to the clouds and gentle trade winds that reach from the nearby windward coast. There, you’ll enjoy freshly made wraps, cheeses and local Waialua Estate chocolates, made with rare, pure Hawaiian cacao, grown on Oahu in the rich volcanic soil of the North Shore. Paired with a champagne toast and flower leis, this is the ultimate dream date you won’t soon forget.
After your peaceful stay on sacred Hawaiian land, it’s time to join the breeze as your private helicopter whisks you back up to the sky, hugging the Windward coast and cruising up to Oahu’s famed North Shore, bringing you up-close aerial views of the surfers at Banzai Pipeline and Waimea Bay.
Heading inland, you’ll fly over the “The Pineapple Sea” of the Dole Plantation and do a memorable slow-pass over Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial to conclude your helicopter tour of the royal skies and amazing vistas of Hawaii’s crowned jewel.

For answers to commonly asked questions visit our FAQ
Q: Which is the best seat on a helicopter?
The front row seats are typically the most desirable because passengers can see out without having to peer over a fellow passenger. The front seats also offer more legroom than the back seats.
Q: What are the best times to take a helicopter tour?
Mornings and evenings work well because the sun isn’t directly overhead and won’t interfere with your pictures. Visibility is sometimes better in the morning than it is in the afternoon.
Q: What should I wear for a Hawaii helicopter ride?
Dress comfortably, like you would for any outdoor activity in Hawaii. However, if you choose a doors-off tour, your flight will be windy and cold so jackets and/or sweatshirts are required and long pants are recommended. Closed toed shoes are also required for doors-off tours. Hats are often not allowed on board your flight. Lastly, for anyone with long hair – a hair tie is recommended.

AMAZING! The one word that sums it up! The Rainbow staff were super friendly and made sure we had a wonderful experience. Our pilot was absolutely amazing, he pointed out everything and shared so much history about Oahu. This experience was worth every penny – we would definitely recommend this experience to everyone we know.
Michael Frye –
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.
