About this tour

See Kona’s coastline from a fresh perspective on a 30-minute helicopter flight, with the choice of a doors-off or doors-on experience. From the air, trace the shore past the ancient Kaloko Fish Ponds and along Aliʻi Drive, then look down on Kailua Bay and the pale sands of Magic Sands Beach. The route continues over Kona coffee farms toward Kealakekua Bay Marine Preserve, where clear water shelters coral reefs and marine life. Circle the bay for an aerial view of the Captain Cook Monument and a glimpse of the coastline’s history. This Kona Helicopter Tour brings together coastal scenery, local landmarks, and the island’s varied landscapes in one compact flight. Doors-off guests should come prepared with a jacket or sweatshirt, closed-toe shoes, and a hair tie; long pants are recommended. Meet at the Big Island Jet Center in Kailua Kona, and choose the flight style that suits you for a memorable look at Kona from above.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: none of its 2 providers shows a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
