The best way to experience all of Kauai is by helicopter, and who better to trust than the originators of helicopter tours on Kauai. Explore Kauai's diverse landscapes from the comfort of our six-passenger AStar, designed for providing a smooth and safe ride with all the luxuries. Our spacious air-conditioned cabin is customized with floor-to-ceiling windows for optimal viewing and is flown with the pilot on the left-hand side of the aircraft to maximize comfort, viewing, and safety.
Our knowledgeable and skilled pilots will guide you through the island’s iconic landmarks, providing insightful commentary along the way.
Safety is our top priority, and we adhere to the highest industry standards.
We fly a FULL 60-65 minute tour. You don’t want to settle for any less than 60 minutes, as this allows our pilots to take their time at each viewpoint and rotate the helicopter so all passengers have a great view regardless of seating arrangements.

We scheduled this tour at the beginning of our week in Kauai as a preview of what was to come. The Jack Harter company was organized, professional, and friendly throughout the entire process. We were especially lucky in that it was a sunny and calm day but the waterfalls were numerous due to rainfall in the days prior to our tour. Our pilot, Nick, was just the icing on the cake. He was so informative and enthusiastic. He even created a sound track to accompany the tour. Nick clearly loves his job.

Preston was a fabulous pilot and tour guide. We saw all of Kauai that we could imagine, with carefully timed ventures up valleys and over seashore and beaches. He flew so smoothly. He was extremely knowledgeable about the valleys and waterfalls as well as the history of the island. The Jack Harter ground crew was excellent, entirely focused on our needs and safety. All in all, a beautiful experience, helping us to understand and appreciate the beauty of Kauai.

The flight was cancelled despite having received confirmation and having made payment through Paypal. The money was refunded, but we were very disappointed. In our case, the company was very disorganised.

Nicolas was a wonderful pilot tour guide. Clearly deeply invested in the experience himself, and his enjoyment was felt and experienced by us. Drawing the attention of each passenger by name, answered questions knowledgeably. Brought in interesting geological info, aerodynamics, botany details, Hollywood history, and other details. Our flight was right after a storm and there was a magical number of waterfalls everywhere.

We had a great tour of Kauai with Jack Harter Helicopters, and specifically with their pilot Nick. My wife and I went with our 8 and 6 year old kids, and there was another couple on board as well. Nick is a very experienced pilot who has lived on the island for more than 20 years. He knows a lot about the things and places you see on the tour and is good at sharing his knowledge in a pleasant way. He clealry loves his home, and it isn't hard to understand why. He also fielded what seemed like 100 questions from my 8 year old, and was very patient and gracious in doing so. Thankfully the other couple on board didn't seem to mind either! We struggled with planning our trip to Hawaii in deciding between trying to see a few islands or spending our time on one island. We ended up settling on island hopping, which meant we were only on Kauai for a couple of days. The helicopter tour was a good way to see a lot of the island in a short amount of time, especially because the most scenic places are in very rugged terrain that can be difficult to access otherwise. Our tour definitely helped us make the most of our time on Kauai, and I am glad we chose Jack Harter Helicopters for our tour.

Amazing helicopter trip to see the Island. The lush green, peaks and valleys, Waimea Canyon and the Napali coast were all incredible.
Eli was our pilot and he delivered a safe and spectacular ride with great narration in flight. The company and staff are professional and clearly safety conscious, they made certain all were properly briefed and safely boarded and secured. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed our helicopter tour of the Kauai island! Our pilot Nick is very knowledgeable and patient. The ride is very smooth. It is not bumpy at all. We saw a lot of beautiful sceneries, multiple rainbows! Highly recommend this excursion!
