45 mins
Helicopter tour, pilot narration
Take to the air for a narrated perspective on O'ahu's landscapes and Pearl Harbor history. Follow the approach route of the planes that attacked Pearl Harbor as your pilot shares context along the way.
Your helicopter tour begins with a bird's eye view of Honolulu's famous harbor, where the Aloha Tower welcomes arriving ships into the port. You'll then head down the coast, passing by the beaches of Waikīkī and exploring Diamond Head. After taking in the majestic views, you'll fly over Maunalua Bay and Hanauma Bay's well-known reefs.
As you travel along the coast, you'll see the little lighthouse sitting atop the cliffs of Makapu'u and pass by the longest stretch of beach on the island of O'ahu. Keep an eye out for rainbows! You'll then travel up the Windward Coast to visit world-renowned Lanikai Beach and the aptly named Chinaman's Hat. At the end of the tour, we will pass over Pearl Harbor, a must-visit destination on O'ahu. Immerse yourself in the rich history of the Pearl Harbor National Monument, home to the famous Arizona Memorial. See the hallowed grounds where the USS Arizona rests, a resting place for over 1100 brave sailors and marines. Experience the poignant beauty of this historic landmark.
