    Big Island Helicopter Tours Hilo Kilauea

    The views from this Hilo Helicopter Tour are truly awe-inspiring and can only be experienced from the air. Fly above flowing lava from active volcanoes and misty waterfalls while taking in the full beauty of the Big Island on this incredible helicopter adventure.

    You will soar in a luxury AStar helicopter with two-way headsets, and the entire flight is fully narrated. Glide over the famous Kilauea volcano and witness the aftermath of the historic 2018 eruption. Kilauea’s windward side is the wettest location in the United States, and years of torrential rain have transformed lava crevasses into stunning pools, rivers, and waterfalls. One of the highlights is the flowing Wai‘nuenue Falls, where sunlight creates vibrant rainbows across the cascading water. Wai‘nuenue means “rainbow water” in Hawaiian, and seeing it from above is unforgettable.

    From the helicopter, you will also get a bird’s-eye view of Hilo’s rainforest, one of the lushest in the world. Your pilot shares fascinating insights through the two-way headset, turning the ride into both a cultural and scenic adventure. You’ll learn about the land, its history, and Hawaiian traditions as you explore the skies.

    So book your Big Island Helicopter Tour and visit the volcano they call Kilauea for yourself.

    Helicopter tour was great; Hilo ground crew was very helpful and pilot Chuy provided excellent commentary while showing us the volcanoes.

    We had a wonderful experience and enjoyed the sited and the knowledge of our pilot/guide. My only disappointment is we stayed above 1000 to 1200 feet and we didn't get very close to the waterfalls. It would of been nice to get closer to falls and the edge of the volcano. But we really enjoyed the experience. James and stephanie

    The tour location was easy to find and once we arrived everyone was incredibly kind and helpful. Our pilot, Sam, was amazing! She was fun and informative, very skilled and professional, and allowed space and time for questions too. This was such a great surprise for our adult kids and we all loved this helicopter tour immensely! 100% would recommend and would do it again!
