Paradise Helicopters Hawaii Experience from Kona
This Big Island Helicopter Tour is currently unavailable for booking on our site. Please visit our Big Island Helicopter Tours page for
other available tours. Big Island Helicopter Tours through Paradise Helicopters are fantastic ways to experience the Big Island’s highlights such as the lava activity at Kilauea. We offer two different flight paths that will take you either between Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa or by the crystal clear waters of South Kona. Both of these give you great views of regions that you can only see during Kona Helicopter Tours. Once your Big Island Tour arrives at Kilauea Volcano, you’ll be able to check out the current lava activity. These Big Island Activities offered through Big Island Activities Discount are truly unforgettable!
Your Hawaii Tour will then go on to the north end of the Big Island where you’ll be able to observe emerald green valleys, lush tropical rainforests, and numerous waterfalls. Then you’ll leave the green behind as your Big Island Helicopter Tour brings you to the Kona Coast where you’ll be able to view gorgeous resorts.
