Embark on an 8-hour adventure to explore Big Island's majestic waterfalls and volcanoes by helicopter.
Lift off and take in sweeping views of volcanic craters, black sand beaches, and lush rainforest valleys. Your pilot will guide you over the raw and rugged landscapes of Kilauea, the winding cliffs of the Hamakua Coast, and the majestic valleys of Waipi’o and Waimanu. Along the way, soar past remote, towering waterfalls and touch down at a 1200-foot cascade for a rare photo opportunity in an area few get to access.
After landing, meet your naturalist guide for a private exploration of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Venture along forested trails, walk across ancient lava fields, and peer into steaming craters as you learn about the island’s unique geology and native ecosystems. With each stop, your guide will share insights into the Big Island’s living landscape, from its most active volcanoes to its rare flora and fauna.
Wrap up your adventure with a scenic return drive across the island, arriving back at your accommodations in the late afternoon.
