I have never been airsick or seasick before this tour - it took me a few hours to recover. My boyfriend got sick in the parking lot. We had to wait about an hour to even get in our car and drive back to the hotel. The views were spectacular, but it was such a bummer to be so nauseous on vacation.

We arrived 30 minutes early, got checked in, had pictures taken and were in the air at 10 sharp. Makana (sp) was our pilot and did an amazing job. Great sense of humor and very knowledgeable. The views were breathtaking, Kauai is such a beautiful place. Definitely recommend. Mahalo 🤙

Not the best tour

You are not able to get good pix in the air. The wing is in your way or the support that holds the wing is in your way to get a clear pix. It is very hot in the plan as there is no A/C. The pilot was off in some of his statistics he presented.

Aloha, I'm so sorry to hear your experience was not up to our standards. It's so rare that we ever get less than 5-stars on our tours. Could you please send your booking information to info@aiventureshawaii.com or call me at 808-651-0679 so I can address the issue with the appropriate pilot? I'll await your reply. Mahalo,

This tour showed all the beautiful sites of Kauai! I am VERY prone to motion sickness was but was only a little queasy (which is a huge win for me!) The company was very helpful: I took 2 doses of meclizine before the trip and the company gave me mints and a cold towel to keep my stomach calm. Much appreciated!

Great tour, but plane is hot.
MArk_M

The overall view, time spent in the air, our pilot, and the narration was great. Main issue is the plane is not air conditioned, and it gets really hot. They provide cold towels and use a make shift A/C (air blown over a cooler of ice). 4 out 5 of us threw up 1/2 way through the flight. Wouldn't do this again. Will pay more for a helicopter that is air conditioned or that goes with doors off.

My husband and I enjoyed this one hour air tour of Kauai! Nate, our pilot, made a smooth take off and landing and had many informative things to tell us. It was bumpy and one could get airsick. So take precautions if you need! (I did, and glad I did, so I could enjoy). Enjoy!!
