Fly above Kona’s coastline in an open-air gyroplane with an FAA-certified instructor, and try the controls during portions of this 60-minute experience.
About this tour
See Hawaii’s Big Island from a fresh perspective on a Kona Gyroplane Flight Experience. This 60-minute open-air flight traces the coastline, offering expansive views and a more exposed ride than a helicopter or airplane tour.
Meet your FAA-certified instructor at the gate by the T-hangars at Kona International Airport, then begin with a pre-flight safety briefing. Aviation headsets let you communicate during the flight, and you may even take the controls for portions of the experience. The open-air gyroplane brings you close to the scenery while giving you a distinctive way to explore Kona from above.
Hotel transportation is not included, and flight video is available to purchase on location. With wheelchair-accessible areas and surfaces, this experience offers a memorable way to see the coast. Book your Kona Gyroplane Flight Experience and take to the skies.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 1 review. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Big Island of Hawaii
- 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: this tour scores 7.1.
