Kauai Small Plane, Small-Group Sightseeing Flight

From the red lava rock landscape of Waimea Canyon to the towering sea cliffs of the Na Pali Coast, Kauai has some of the most spectacular scenery on Earth. Begin your aerial tour at the Lihue Airport Commuter Terminal. Meet your experienced pilot-guide and climb aboard the GA8 Airvan, a small plane specially designed for observation with large bubble windows, high wings, and slower cruising speed. The aircraft seats up to six passengers for an intimate, small-group experience. Put on a pair of noise-canceling headphones with a 2-way intercom so you can communicate with the pilot and hear narration about the sights below. Soar over Kauai’s diverse landscapes for unmatched aerial views of highlights like Waimea Canyon, Mt. Waialeale, the golden beaches of Poipu, tropical cascades, Hanalei Bay, and the towering spires of the Na Pali Coast. Ask questions as much as you like and customize your experience with requests to revisit certain sights or linger a bit longer over your favorite parts of the island. Touch down back at the Lihue airstrip.

Summary: Our Wings Over Kauai Air tour was awesome! Our pilot, Jeff, explained what to expect before we even left. He made us feel quite comfortable which added to the experience. He explained what mountains, beaches, resorts, etc that we saw as we were passing over them. The perspective from that high up, and the views, were breathtaking! We had done a helicopter tour in 2014 so we got to go in close to the waterfalls, but the plane tour allowed us to go much higher and see the island from a whole different/higher view. Spectacular!! The plane flight was surprisingly stable so we didn’t experience any motion sickness at all. Seeing this beautiful island from a catamaran, helicopter and tour plane were all worth it. That said, this plane tour was much better priced and highly rated. The catamaran cruise (with dinner) was next in terms of cost. Helicopter was most expensive. Highly recommend Wings Over Kauai Air Tour! Video taken from wings of plane is available for purchase, which we did. Loved this tour and would do again!!

Summary: I really enjoyed my 1hr Wings Over Kauai flight. The tour started on the south side and traveled over Poipu, then over Waimea Canyon. From there, we saw amazing views of the Nepali coast and Ke’e Beach. Then, we saw the North side including Princeville and the Kīlauea lighthouse, and finishing on the Eastern side of Kauai. Our pilot was very informative and professional.
