Waimea Canyon, often referred to as the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific," is one of Kaua'i's most spectacular natural wonders. Stretching approximately 14 miles long, one mile wide, and more than 3,600 feet deep, the canyon's colorful walls depict a geological story that dates back thousands of years. Driven by a deep river cutting through the heart of the canyon, Waimea is home to numerous cascading waterfalls and scenic lookout points.

Explanation

This tour is a full day adventure from your Waikīkī hotel until you return. We start with pickup at your accommodation in the early morning hours to bring you to the airport for your flight from Honolulu to Lihue.

Once in Lihue, you will enjoy a helicopter ride around the island for about 45 to 50 minutes. The sights will be amazing, from the rugged Nā Pali coastline, the deep canyons, and the tall waterfalls around Waimea Canyon to the wettest place in Hawai'i, Mount Waiʻaleʻale. The helicopter will circle slowly in this area so you can take in the views of waterfalls pouring out from the clouds. Your pilot will narrate, play music, and answer all your questions as you go. You can even buy a video of your flight, too!

Once back on the ground, you will meet your private guide, taking you on a 6-hour island exploration. We will check out quaint towns, incredible views, more waterfalls, beautiful beaches, and more. You can choose the section of the island you want to check out more. From the beautiful Hanalei Bay to the Poipu shores, there is something for every group and age to enjoy. We can even go for a hike up in Waimea Canyon and visit places that were featured in many popular movies. Let us know your interests, and we will make it an extraordinary adventure on this beautiful island.

Late afternoon, your guide will bring you back to Lihue to catch your flight back to Honolulu. Our guides will meet you curbside at the airport to bring you back to your airport—a full day of adventuring that you will remember forever.
