THE ORIGINATOR OF KAUAI HELICOPTER TOURS. Jack brought the first helicopter to Kauai in 1962. He knew from an earlier visit that Kauai’s scenic coastlines and valleys would be best seen from the safety and comfort of a helicopter. We are an FAA Part 135 Air Carrier. For our customers, this means that we meet or exceed the highest standards of safety, aircraft maintenance, and pilot training set for our industry. During your Kauai tour our pilots share with you the lore, legends, geology and ecosystems that make the Garden Island special and transform your Hawaii vacation into a genuine exploration of paradise. You will hear your pilot’s narration over a two-way CD quality intercom system with stereo headsets. "What a wonderful experience – the best part of our trip to Kauai. The narration made it seem like we were on the Discovery Channel!" Nancy and John O'Brian JACK HARTER HELICOPTERS TAKES YOU BACK TO KAUAI’S ANCIENT TIMES IN THE SAFETY AND COMFORT OF THE FINEST HELICOPTERS AVAILABLE. Our air-conditioned six-passenger Eurocopter AStar helicopters have been specifically designed to fly tours on Kauai. Gigantic windows allow for excellent viewing and photographic opportunities. While most AStars have the pilot’s seat on the right, we have modified our aircraft to place the pilot’s seat on the left. This allows the installation of more comfortable passenger seats and more legroom for all passengers. Another benefit of this configuration is that as we fly our clock-wise tour paths around Kauai, more passengers are on the Mauka (mountain) side of the helicopter. "We have shortened our vocabulary to three words: 'WOW,' 'Incredible,' and 'Unbelievable.' This was the highlight of our stay on Kauai." Judi and Mike O'Shea THE LONGEST ONE-HOUR HELICOPTER TOURS ON KAUAI! Our 60-65 minute tours are in the air a minimum of 60 minutes. Most of our competitors offer a 55-60 minute “one-hour” tour. We feel it takes at least 60 minutes to see Kauai by helicopter and five more minutes of “in-air” time allow us to go slower, fly lower, and make more turns along Na Pali and in Kauai’s spectacular canyons. For some, an hour over Kauai’s scenic wonders is still not long enough. If you are interested in longer tours ask about our 90-95 minute tours or charter a helicopter for an exclusive tour. WHEN YOU ADD TO ALL OF THIS A CARING AND FRIENDLY STAFF DEDICATED TO SAFETY AND QUALITY, YOU GET THE BEST HELICOPTER EXPERIENCE AVAILABLE IN THE WORLD. We are highly recommended by many Kauai guidebooks including: Conde’ Nast Traveler, The Essential Guide to Kauai, Fodor’s, Frommer’s, The Kauai Underground Guide, The Ultimate Kauai Guidebook, and more!
