See the highlights of West Maui, then fly across the Pailolo channel to discover Hawaii's tallest waterfalls along Moloka'i's remote and isolated north shore. Capture the world's steepest sea cliffs – a few of which are over 3,000 ft. tall. See Kalaupapa, site of the settlement where patients with Hansen’s disease were ministered to by Father Damien, before returning through the heart of the West Maui Mountains.

It was an indescribably beautiful tour over West Maui and Molokai. The tour went about 50min in a helicopter with 6 seats. My wife and son sat right in front and I sat at the back of the window. You could see everything well just because of the reflection in the disc you have to look when taking pictures. The whole staff was very friendly. We were even lucky enough to fly with a German-speaking pilot. Finally, you have the opportunity to buy a video of the flight. We did it, it was worth it. Can highly recommend the tour with the provider.

Was a lovely tour with a great guide who took into account the comfort of the passengers. It is always a good sign when you get repeat customers, and i expect they get plenty

We pre booked our tour and were very excited to go. The pilot Andy was excellent but we did not experience the full benefit of the tour due to our assigned seats. We were assigned to the back corner seats on the opposite side of the pilot. I had seat 6 and could not see anything that Andy was talking about. There was a large man and his wife that were assigned the front seats with Andy and I’m sure their experience felt like a private tour. They saw everything that Andy saw, when he was describing it. They had an on going conversation throughout the tour. Unfortunately my view was completely blocked, other than what I could see from the back right. The pilot sat on the front left. Andy did attempt to look back a couple of times during and even circled back once so I could see the elephant rock. Other than that, I tried to see what I could, but it was well after Andy and others saw it and i was never sure I was even seeing what he previously described. My suggestion is, unless you can be preassigned the front two seats beside the pilot, it is not worth the hefty price tag. I’m sure it would have been thrilling from those seats. When we returned from the tour, we tried to purchase the tour video. We waited for about 30 minutes for the receptionist to charge everyone and copy the video on to a flash drive. We could not wait any longer as we were lucky to get reservations at Mama’s Fish House (the highlight of the day and of our trip to Maui). We left without the video.

If you are on the fence about doing this...GO FOR IT! Andy was a incredible pilot and made sure everyone on board had a great time and that everyone got to see everything that he was pointing out. We were lucky enough to see several whales along the way and one of the biggest manta rays I've ever seen. It was such a great experience and we were able to see so much of the islands! It is a must when coming to Maui! It was my first time in a helicopter and it was incredibly smooth! Can't wait to come back and try one of the other tours!

My favorite experience in my recent visit to Maui was going up with Sunshine Helicopters! First, they gave us the best bid. Second, when we could not continue a flight after viewing the crater, they offered a full refund or another flight. We took another flight, which became longer than the 45 minutes promised. Third, that flight was my best helicopter experience ever: we saw whales, ancient fishing pools at the Molokai reef shelf, the site of Father Damien’s leper colony from a distance, magnificent waterfalls, verdant cliffs jabbing from a thousand feet into the sea, and settlements on Molokai and Maui. I’ll never forget it!

This was our first helicopter tour. It was the high point of our trip to Maui. Everything felt very safe and comfortable. Spencer, the pilot, was great and gave us information about what we were seeing. He also made sure people on both sides could see the whales and waterfalls. I would recommend Sunshine Helicopters to anyone.

Absolutely top drawer. Spencer was a terrific guide and pilot. We thought the helicopter ride was the highlight of our vacation. For the rest of our time on Maui, we would refer to that ride when discussing parts of the island. I highly recommend people get to Maui this year and experience it themselves.

Spectacular views, a must-do in Maui. Safe and informative pilot. One star less for rescheduling the day and time at last minute.
