Magical experience in beautiful Kauai

Published on Nov, 2024

What a great day in beautiful Kauai. Everything was perfectly organised end-to-end. Our tour guide Rosario welcomed us at Lihue airport and took us on a movie tour in Kauai. He put this together with all his love and enthusiasm for Kauai and the movies that have been filmed there over the past decades. He blended in his extensive knowledge of the island with wit and humour. The big list of movies will get us through the cold winter months and will bring back the great memories. The highlight of the tour was a helicopter ride with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters. Captain Robert took us over Waimea Canyon, waterfalls, Napali Coast and into the crater, which was an experience out of this world. The stunning beauty of Kauai is breathtaking. He made us feel at ease straight away and we really enjoyed our first ever helicopter ride. We thank him, and Rosario very much for making our day so special.

Great movie recap

Published on May, 2024

Our tour guide has been fantastic, he was entertaining and very knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour as a must see. Our driver was Kaleo

incredible i actually wanted to stay...

Published on Dec, 2017

incredible i actually wanted to stay on the island of Kaui, and not return to Oahu. Started off with a movie tour watching the scenes and then arriving at the destinations shown. Lunch was divine in one of the local places. The helicopter tour was incredible i wouldn't know how to describe it or even interpret what we seen along the Napali coast.
