Amazing, unforgettable experience - The Canyon Landing Tour with Safari Helicopters was absolutely incredible. From takeoff to landing, the views were nothing short of magical — lush green valleys, towering waterfalls, dramatic sea cliffs, and the vivid, otherworldly colors of Kauai’s canyons. The highlight of the tour was touching down in a remote private reserve on the edge of a canyon that can only be reached by helicopter. Standing in that untouched, serene spot surrounded by towering cliffs felt like stepping into a secret part of the island that very few people ever get to see. Our pilot was fantastic — knowledgeable, professional, and skilled at pointing out hidden gems along the way while keeping the ride smooth and comfortable. The entire team at Safari Helicopters made the experience seamless, from check-in to takeoff. If you want to experience the true beauty of Kauai from the sky and get the rare opportunity to step into a piece of the island few will ever visit, this is the tour to book. Unforgettable and worth every single moment! 🌴🚁

Up up and away! Thrilling. - My husband, me, son- in-law and 3 grandkids (9, 13 and 15) took this helicopter tour. Phenomenal as we skirted over treetops and into the valleys of the island. A highlight was landing in a canyon and getting out to walk around. Highly recommend!

Rainy day, great flight - It was a rainy day, so did not get to land. Got an immediate refund. The flight itself was amazing, our pilot Steve, took us over the canyon, showed us many waterfalls, some rainbows. The flight was super smooth, and even the people that sat in the middle had good views. Mary gave us a good safety instruction, and was very nice

Great tour and better weather! - We left in the first tour of the day at 0800, I’d suggest an early trip as clouds set in later in the day. It was a fantastic tour and the pilot was amazing.

Don't waste your money - I was so disappointed. My guide was just boring. We flew around in a cramped little helicopter and he barely spoke. The guy next to me and I kept asking questions, which he answered, but that was about it. We ended up on the side of the helicopter that saw everything after the fact - we mostly didn't know what we were seeing. The tour promised 50 minutes, but we were back in 25. For such an expensive tour, I expected a lot more.

They suck - I was stuck in the middle back seat, I saw the backs of heads and some doors foemr 45 min. No landing no jurassic falls nor did we land at robinson ranch the “change” was not weather related. I watched them lie to a small group about weight and laugh afterword. When i questioned them they smugly said “good luck with getting a refund”

Helicopter tour safari tours - We scheduled for Tuesday morning to go at 7am, they called 2 days before and told me they had to switch to Monday at 2pm, this was very inconvenient for our scheduling, then Monday they called and told me they didn't have the helicopter to land in canyon. Then called while I was on the way and I had to hurry and meet at the helipad. Very unorganized, the pilot did not talk very much not a lot of information about the sites, would not recommend safari tours to anyone.
