Overview

Experience the ultimate Big Island adventure as you journey to the fiery heart of Hawaiʻi’s volcanic landscape. This unforgettable aerial tour takes you across the island’s most breathtaking scenery — from crystal-clear coastlines and cascading waterfalls to the commanding presence of active volcanoes.

Soar over Hawai'i Island's diverse volcanic landscape, passing lush coffee farms and pristine coastlines as you head towards Kīlauea — one of the world’s most active volcanoes. At its towering summit, vast lava fields and ongoing volcanic activity reveal the island’s living core. From there, the journey flows into the Hāmākua and Kohala Coasts, where lush valleys and waterfalls blend into golden beaches and coral-rich bays. Together, they meet the volcanic interior, revealing Hawaiʻi’s full spectrum of natural beauty.

This is more than a helicopter tour — it’s an unforgettable journey through Pele’s garden of fire with a front-row seat to the power, beauty, and legend of Hawaiʻi Island.
