Kona: Circle Island Experience

See it all. the only helicopter tour that flies around the entire island, including south point..

cliffs at seaside

Starting at $749 per person

Activity  level , experience .

You flew all the way to Hawai‘i; you should see it all on the only complete helicopter tour around Hawai'i island. The Island of Hawai’i really is a “Big Island.” Paradise’s Circle Island Experience is the only helicopter tour in Hawai‘i that ventures south to encompass the entire perimeter, and we do it in just two hours! Starting from the Kona International Airport at the island’s western-most tip, your pilot takes you past the Kona coffee district and the slopes of Mauna Loa to the southernmost town in the United States. You’ll be amazed when viewing one of only four green sand beaches in the world!

Next, your pilot will take you to view the world’s most active volcano, and continue towards Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō vent. After over 35 years of activity, discover what Kīlauea Volcano has left in the wake of its recent eruptive episode. Witness otherworldly landscapes like the incredible eight-mile river of frozen lava from Ahuʻailāʻau to the Pacific Ocean, the newest black sand beaches on earth, and enormous craters created by these historic events. Then, turn to the east, the island’s lush windward side and Hilo town. Notice how water now flows where lava once did, gushing out of sheer cliffs through lava tubes, creating hundreds of waterfalls and nourishing the rich vegetation. The grandeur of the Kohala valleys and waterfalls of the north are sure to catch your breath, as are the white sand beaches on your return to Kona.

  • Guaranteed window seats - With a maximum of 3 passengers, this VIP private tour gives you unbeatable views of the coastline from your seat.
  • Good value - You can choose the doors-off flight option at no extra cost for a completely thrilling al fresco experience up in the clouds.

What is the difference between the packages?

  • Aircraft: R44
  • Duration: 30 minutes
  • Maximum of 3 passengers
  • Guaranteed window seats
  • Commentary by an experienced pilot
  • Accommodates children ages 7 years old and above
  • In a closed aircraft, you are shielded from wind exposure and you will be able to enjoy the music and narration clearly. It offers a more serene and captivating experience as you take in the breathtaking scenery through the large windows.
  • Accommodates children ages 12 years old and above
  • Best for passengers looking for the perfect photo opportunities
  • The doors-off flight is a more adventurous experience and you will not get the glare from the windows in your pictures. The door-to-ceiling openings allow you to look straight down to the ocean and mountains. Because the helicopter is open to the elements, you will be exposed to wind and cooler temperatures.

Local expert tips

  • Please check in 40 minutes prior to your flight time. Each passenger’s exact weight includes shoes, all clothing, and personal belongings including camera equipment and purses.
  • What to wear: On a doors-on flight, please wear dark outer layers to minimize reflection in the windows when you take photos. For doors-off flights, please wear a windproof jacket or any warm outer layer that has zippers. Avoid wind-susceptible clothing such as dresses and hooded items. In the winter, please wear long pants. Eyeglasses are permissible on the flight, and earrings must be taken off, so you can wear headsets comfortably.
  • Best time of the day to fly: Typically, the morning conditions are more favorable than in the afternoon for the best viewing experience.
  • Best time to visit: Spring and summer offer the best climate for an aerial tour as Hawaii has plenty of sunshine at this time.
  • This tour accommodates last-minute bookings, perfect for those looking to squeeze in an aerial sightseeing experience just before leaving Big Island.
  • Take your medicine at least 1 hour before the flight if you’re prone to motion sickness.

What to Expect

Departing from Kona International Airport, we head straight up into the sky to get a birds eye view of one of the most stunning landscapes in the Hawaiian Islands. Northbound we have some of the planets most stunning beaches including the multi award winning Manini‘owali Beach (Kua Bay). South bound we get as far as Captain Cook, often overlooked for more resort-saturated spots along Hawaii Island’s Kona Coast. Captain Cook, a small town with a population of just 3,400 individuals, is full of Hawaiian history.

On January 17, 1779, Captain James Cook, of Great Britain, sailed into Kealakekua Bay. The native Hawaiian welcomed the Captain and his crew with open arms, believing them to be returning gods. A massive feast was held in their honor, however, a month later, upon realizing that the Captain and his crew were mere mortals, Cook was killed in a conflict. Approximately 99 years later, a 27-foot white obelisk was erected to honor the famous seafarer.

SEE WHAT OUR PASSENGER HAVE TO SAY

After some research we decided to choose Moana Loa for our helicopter ride. What stood out for us was that this company specifically does private doors off helicopter tours. Sam was an amazing pilot. She was knowledgeable of Kauai and all it has to offer. If you can, try to ask for Sam as your pilot! Highly recommend!!

Taking a private tour with family was perfect. It was great to see the island and the land features from the sky. Flying through lush allies was the highlight of the tour. Amy did a great job giving us the history of the island and Aulani was super helpful getting us checked in and making recommendations for where to swim.

Absolutely incredible!!! Easily one of the coolest things we’ve ever done. Highly recommend doors off it gets a little chilly but the experience is well worth it! Alain was an amazing guide with an awesome playlist as he told us about the island. At no part did I feel scared or that heart drop feeling of a rollercoaster. Such an amazing experience and highly recommend!! Thank you!!

The main office made us a little nervous and wondering if we booked a good tour. The girl checking us in was very unimpressed and seemed bored. Almost seemd displeased with us Upon arrival st the helicopter, Alain was fabulous! What an amazing flight!!! The views!! A little scarey with windows off but he was very reassuring. So beautiful and exhilarating! I can't say enough about how fabulous our pilot and Flight was!!!
