We loved our experience with Air Maui! We chose to do the West Maui/Molokai Tour with an oceanfront landing and it was one of the highlights of our trip. The landing area was such a beautiful and private spot on the west side of the island, and offered wonderful views of the ocean and coastline. Our pilot was also spectacular and was sure to each give passengers on either side of the aircraft a great view of the waterfalls/cliffs we were flying past. Additionally, we found the tour to be very informative and interesting and we learned a lot about the islands. All of the staff were organized and helpful, making us feel completely safe the entire time. Overall, we think that this tour is one of the best ways to experience the islands. Being able to see views and landscapes that you could not see without flying is truly worth every penny and is such a memorable experience, and we’ll absolutely be back to do another tour for our next trip!

For my birthday, my husband planned the most incredible surprise for me and our two little girls — a helicopter ride, a submarine tour, and a fancy luau dinner in Maui. It was thoughtful, exciting, and something we’ll never forget. We actually took this same helicopter tour back in 2015 and had such a great time then, so we were thrilled to do it again as a family. This time it was even more special because it was our daughters' very first helicopter ride. They were absolutely in awe the entire time — taking in the waterfalls, valleys, and coastline — and by the end, they were so relaxed they both fell asleep mid-flight. The views were stunning, the ride was smooth, and the entire Air Maui team made us feel safe and welcome from the moment we arrived. Excellent customer service, a beautiful aircraft, and an experience that was even better than we remembered. Five stars all the way. If you're in Maui, this is a must-do.

We took our first helicopter ride with Drew as our pilot - it was out of this world! Drew was a really good pilot and guide to boot. As someone who grew up on Maui, his in depth knowledge of the island really made a huge difference. In addition to the unique perspective from the air, we also got to see so many beautiful sights we would never have been able to get to because there are no roads or trails that get you there. Highly recommend a trip with Air Maui and ask for Drew!

OMG!!! The coolest thing I have ever done! I celebrated my 25th wedding anniversary with a doors off tour, Papa Richie was our pilot and he was fantastic. The tour he took us on felt like he was sharing something really special with us. A very warm and inviting company, all the staff were awesome and very professional. I would definitely do this again!

Great experience! Yes, it's pricey but do you want a cheap helicopter ride? We liked the doors off experience but it is VERY windy if you sit on the outside seat. They were super professional which helps if you have any concerns. The pilot was very calm and personable, narrated most of the flight which we loved. Unbelievable scenery!

Air Maui is beyond imagination! We love a good air adventure, but this was next level. The folks at the office were great to work with and it was super easy to book. very reasonable rates. Our pilot was fantastic. We got to see the most beautiful Maui shorelines and countless waterfalls on both Maui and another nearby island, one of the waterfalls had about a 1,200 feet. Our pilot was also very informative, telling us all about the island, traditions and a lot of local history. I would love to go back and take a tour with Air Maui again! Mahalo!

We wouldn’t fly with any other company! Air Maui was amazing!!!! We loved our pilot Cameron, he was so knowledgeable, it was so interesting to hear everything. We even saw a whale from our helicopter and he circled back to make sure we got good pictures. He was absolutely wonderful, and we felt so safe with him. We will absolutely be doing this tour again. We did the ocean landing, well worth it.

The best experience ever!! My first helicopter ride especially with doors off tour was incredible!!! I highly recommend!!! It feels like a dream and seems like a green screen, the views, the knowledge that the captain Richie had was definitely just awesome!!! It makes you see how truly beautiful our island of Maui and Molokai is from a birds eye view and gives you that indescribable feeling of a dream experience! Crews were professional and awesome and pilot Richie made us comfortable as we entered and exited the helicopter!! Amazing!!!

We had Drew as our pilot and he was amazing. Super informed and showed us all the sights to see. All the staff made sure we were comfortable and safe before getting on the helicopter. The tour has stunning views and they share spots to check out and visit.

This was a truly magical experience. The 45 minute open door helicopter tour is totally worth it and enough for us. Richie was our pilot and he took us through valleys, waterfalls and sights that can only be accessible by helicopter. I loved the historical facts he would speak about and stories about his family. Dad jokes and all, Richie made our experience truly memorable and the staff at Maui Air were very nice and welcoming (shout out to Kim!). Flying Air Maui with the doors open was totally worth it in my experience! Mahalo Air Maui, especially Richie and Kim!

It wasn't inexpensive, but it was worth every penny. We paid up to get seats up front with the pilot. Well worth the additional costs. Initial impressions were great. The staff at the front desk were super kind. Even helped me find a shirt that looked to be out of my size. A quick trip upstairs and there it was. Views were spectacular. Our pilot Cameron was fantastic. Would absolutely recommend. We are already looking forward to next time. They have multiple excursions. Next time doors off? Mahalo Air Maui!

Received an amazing deal with our hotel and could not resist. I've always wanted to go on a helicopter ride and will definitely want to go again. Choose the 45min ride and it was enough. Our captain was super chill, outgoing and very informative. If you haven't gone on a ride choose air Maui!

WOW this was an incredible experience! I did the doors off tour and FELT SO ALIVEEEE. I wish I could do this every day. Loved seeing a side of Molokai i've never seen before also WHOA. All of the employees were so kind and the pilot was a fabulous tour guide. 10/10 experience

Do not use this company! My family had a flight cancellation day of the flight. Immediately called this place and let them know and see if we could rebook for later date. Sorry we need 48 hrs you will be billed for the seats. No empathy or Aloha from this corporation. Definitely not part of the Maui Ohana. I would steer clear of Air Maui and use another helicopter service if you visiting. Sorry I went a little Karen on them! :)

What an EXHILARATING EXPERIENCE?!?! Simply AMAZING!! Sitting on the edge of a DOORS OFF helicopter is definitely a Super Stretch in my comfort zone but sooooo worth it. Seeing the west side of Mahi and the neighboring island of Molokai from up above is PHENOMENAL! This ride was filled with so many close encounters with many waterfalls and gorgeous coastal views against super high cliffs! They provide all the protective gear too to cover your eyes, your ears, your body, and even a special tight fitting lanyard for your cell phone. Bring $60 extra cash to buy the video of the entire experience along with a photo taken on the ground by the helicopter. Photo by itself is $20.

Cheers to Pilot Drew! What a wonderful experience for the whole family (3 generations; grandparents, parents and granddaughters ages 8 & 5). We did a full hour and Pilot Drew was super reassuring and knowledgeable; conveying his love for his homeland with facts and great music. This is one of those transformative experiences in life. Cheers to Drew and the whole team of Air Maui!

We did the doors off West Maui and Molokai helicopter tour with Air Maui. It was an incredible experience. Our pilot, Drew, was fantastic! The views were incredible! Would recommend! Prepare yourself for a very windy experience!

Heli Frames over Maui and Molokai Maui is famous for its mountain views, picturesque waterfalls, and lush rainforests. The best way to see all that the island has to offer from the most advantageous viewpoint is to book a helicopter tour with Air Maui. Aboard a helicopter, you get to take in the gorgeous views the Maui coastline, coastal cliffs and stunning waterfall and overall beauty of Maui by Heli! We will be back again! Note: Most tour prices start at around $300 per person) but seeing Maui from the air is an incredible sight and worth the cost. Staff: Our pilots--"Captain Vince" was fabulous and all the wonderful crew was informative and professional!

You're going to have a HELI-GOOD TIME! We booked the Hana and Rainforest 45 minute helicopter tour with our 7 year old son. Finding the facility was a piece of cake and the operators were a perfect blend of respectfully safe and light hearted fun before take off. Our pilot was Captain Drew and this dude was just absolutely ACES. I think the best comparison I can make is to a great waiter; where you never notice the waiter is missing or that they are hanging around too much, that was our Captain Drew. He piloted us through the clouds to the the crater, Hana, DOZENS of waterfalls, and then a solid FIFTY surfers catching waves out of Jaws. We were all entertained the entire time by his commentary and musical selection; thanks Cap for creating such a great memory for me an my family and for giving John Mayers GRAVITY new meaning in our lives. We would recommend and will recommend again and again and again.

We did the DOORS OFF tour, which I highly recommend whether you are trying a helicopter tour for the first time or you are a seasoned helicopter tour-taker. As a first-time helicopter rider, I had some concerns. Maybe you have the same concerns, so let's see if I can allay them! - Too expensive: Well, doing a helicopter tour is more expensive than not doing one. But I think this company had the best prices of all the ones we browsed for Maui. We initially looked on Groupon for tickets, but the prices were actually cheaper direct from the company's website. - Too scary: I was scared of plummeting to my death or falling out of the helicopter. However, the ride felt so steady and slow that it was the least scary thing on my entire Maui trip (driving Road to Hana was 1000x scarier). Four of us were in the back (2 large men and 2 small/medium women), another couple plus pilot in the front. It was a perfectly fine amount of space, even with all the typical manspreading that was occuring. - Better to try closed door instead of open doors: Surprisingly, the open doors tour was minimally more expensive than the closed door, so I don't know why anyone would not try the open doors . My partner (who has done closed door helicopter tours before) said the open doors experience was much more novel and fun, with way better views. We both got to use our own cell phones, and we recorded tons of great videos from our seats -They're gonna try and upsell me: They did no such thing. At the end, they offered a venmo code that we could scan if we wanted to tip our helicopter driver (who was very nice, informative and competent). They ran the video they themselves recorded on the screen, in case we wanted to buy the video/photo package, but there was zero sales pitch. And not sure what was going on with the other Yelp reviewer, but the price that was displayed to me on the website was the price charged to my credit card, so I saw no price dishonesty On your way into the parking lot, stop by the machine to pay $5 for 2 hrs of parking. Then drive all the way to the end to park closest to Air Maui. The office has very clean bathrooms. LADIES, braid your hair thoroughly including your bangs. I did a casual braid, and by the end of the 45min tour, 50% of my hair had escaped and was whipped by the wind during the flight into a giant knotted halo around the vicinity of my right ear.

I highly recommend AirMaui if you are interested in a helicopter tour. As our pilot Nathan said, 'this is the best way to see the island.' We did 'doors off' tour of West Maui and Molokai, it was just epic. Canyons, waterfalls, cliffs and whales. The pilot was full of local historical knowledge and was quite humorous in a low key fashion. The ground staff were friendly and efficient too.

I am so happy that we booked for the open door ride with front seats! It costs a little more than the regular prices, but it's so worth it! My partner had me take the edge seat and I'm so happy that he did because I was able to take some uhhmazing pictures! My gawd... the view was breathtaking! The pictures can't even compare to what I saw in-person. Props to our pilot, Nathan! He was so funny and chill. The only downside is the combination of the headphone and goggles. It might become too tight around your head to the point where it starts pressing against your temples over time. In other words, cause pain. BUT, it's suppose to keep you safe and semi-comfortable. Before the ride, they'll take a picture of you and your group. When you get back from the ride to Molokai. You have a choice to purchase the videos taken from the helicopter. And/or purchase the printed picture of you and your group ($20). Oh, and I wouldn't recommend this to someone who gets motion sickness easily. /: Mahalo for the lovely experience!

Incredible "doors off" helicopter ride around Maui & Moloka'i Islands with an amazing pilot (Ritchie)! I HIGHLY recommend Air Maui. All of the staff were super helpful (calming my nerves) and this was an epic experience!!

Wow wow wow. Bucket list experience . We were checked in on time, staff all knew exactly what they were doing to get us safely boarded and comfortable. We did the Doors Off tour of Maui and Molokai - including the front seats - and it was breathtaking! First time in a helicopter and it will be hard not to do this every time we visit. Pilot (Richard) was great - lots of fun stories and very knowledgeable. Such an amazing thrill! P.S. Ladies - nothing short of a French braid or tight bun with an elastic will be enough to keep your long hair back. I wore a clip and I had to hold it in for most of the ride!

My daughter suprised me & my granddaughter with a DOORS OFF helicopter tour! There was six of us, all together. I thought I would feel weird being next to a random stranger, but I guess it has to do with weight distribution, also it didn't matter much. We were listening to very good music playing on the headphones soundtrack was great. Our pilot: Drew was knowledgeable since he was raised in Maui. He had tidbits of information that otherwise we wouldn't have known, places his dad used to take him when he was little. I was scared in the beginning because it feels like you're going to fall out. I was on the left outer side and I had a amazing views of everything Maui had to offer. I feel like I got a better understanding of the island. I will never forget this trip! I am so happy I overcame my fears quick !

This was such an awesome experience for my family. We went on the "Doors Off Molokai"..... yes, it was windy but you are provided with goggles, headphones, and a windbreaker as well as a lanyard that hangs around your neck with your phone in it. Shout out to our pilot Drew! He made the experience fantastic and he had a GREAT soundtrack. I will remember the awesome sights ,while rocking out to Petty, Zepplin, and the Stones. Highly recommend !!!

Such a breathtaking experience. We took a 45 minute ride with our pilot Kirk, who was kind, welcoming, and funny. Kirk made sure we were all feeling good and comfortable during the entire ride, and clearly had a ton of experience. I appreciate Kirk letting us all get adjusted before, as he put it, diving like a helicopter rather than a plane. And once those words are said be prepared for the most stunning Hawaiian rollercoaster ride!!

My husband and I wanted a once in a lifetime excursion to celebrate our honeymoon and we are so glad we booked through Air Maui! We booked the doors off helicopter ride and it was hands down the most insane and surreal thing we have ever done! You get a literal Birds Eye view of Maui and Molokai and it was truly something we will never forget.

This was our first trip in a helicopter with the doors off. The views were AMAZING!!! Our pilot, Dylan, was super chill the entire trip, which made me feel comfortable. He provided informative information. In fact, we visited one of the sights he mentioned while overhead. The ladies in the front were great upon checkin. Overall, customer service was great!! The only reason I'm giving a 4 star review is because I feel 4 passengers in the back is too many. I think 3 would be more comfortable. It became very uncomfortable and not much room to move at all. Also keep in mind, doors off is super windy! It's not a bad thing, just be prepared.

Deceptive advertising on the part of this company. Full color brochures found everywhere on the island, advertise several different tours with a price next to it. For example, a complete island tour for $280 per person. In parentheses underneath it says "plus fuel and tax". Of course, everyone expects to pay taxes, and a fuel surcharge makes sense. But when I called to book a flight for my elderly dad, I was told that the $280 trip was now going to cost me $420. When I asked "why such a big difference?" they told me "fuel.". It wouldn't take that much effort to be more forthright and less deceptive in these brochures. Granted, before signing on the dotted line with my credit card, I will know what I'm being charged, but the blatant and transparent attempt by this company to deceive people into thinking a helicopter tour will only cost about half as much as they really do is extremely low class. The other big heli-tour company is explicit in their ads - they show one price which includes all expenses.

DOORS OFF MOLOKAI TOUR IS A BUCKET LIST EXPERIENCE! ...and it wasn't even on my bucket list beforehand but should have been. We were almost brought to tears by the views of the waterfalls and cliffs on the flight, some accessed by flying deep into un-hikeable canyons and hovering to view the top section of 1000+ foot falls. With slight turbulence and a simple automobile type seatbelt, this was a little scary but the excellent pilot made us feel at ease. Also loved seeing the 3000 foot sheer drop of the Molokai cliffs close up. This was in the league of seeing the northern lights in Fairbanks, Alaska. DO IT!

We had the time of our life with Cameron. He is a seasoned pilot with the funnest facts. So glad we took time out of our trip to go on the tour of the island. If you can pick your pilot I strongly suggest Cameron! 5/5

I was disappointed because our ride had to be rescheduled because the other two people on our ride rescheduled due to weather related change of flight route. (Not Air Maui's fault) Their policy states that they have to have at least 4 passengers. Well, they more than made up for it and treated us like royalty when we returned for our rescheduled flight. Every single person was amazing. I am grateful for this. This flight is part of a trip to forget about cancer for a while and this did not disappoint. I highly recommend treating yourself to this tour. We did the 60 minute complete island tour. We saw breathtaking views of waterfalls, rainforest, rainbows, coastline, Hana, craters, volcanos, history and so much more. Pilot Dillon was great! Super nice guy full of knowledge. I highly recommend this tour and also buying the video at the end of the flight. You will not be disappointed It's $60 if you buy it then, or $75 later. Highly recommend. They allow rescheduling, or refund, if the weather causes a change of route. Can't say enough good things about this experience. Do it! Book Air Maui. You will not be disappointed. Thank you, Air Maui.

I would recommend to AVOID open door ride. As much as it sounds fun, but the safety precautions are not there. - They dont care about the arrangement of people in helicopter. 7 people in one relatively small helicopter. Meaning 4 people in the back! And if you are unlucky and fly with people who afraid they will take the whole place in the seat, I my right foot was basically out of window the whole time. Instead of enjoying the view, I was fighting not to fall of the helicopter. - They only have headphones for the customer to wear, which means in any case you cannot talk back to the pilot. Consider any emergency if pop up!

Our pilot, Drew, was a wealth of knowledge who truly wanted my sister and I to have a great experience. The tour was everything we were told that it would be, and is much easier(at least for me) than riding in an airplane. Thanks for the smooth ride and great adventure, Drew!

Great helicopter tours and the best safety record among the Maui agencies! (There's a picture of Oprah going on an Air Maui tour!) All the helicopter tour agencies are located at this heliport and there's a shared parking lot. It is $5 for two hours, so be sure to pay when you pull into the parking lot. As for the actual tour, it's pricey but very affordable through Boss Frogs if you do the time share presentation. Our pilot Kelly was incredible. No motion sickness at all with a bit of Dramamine. I would recommend the West Maui tour that gets you really close to the 6th tallest waterfall in the world! Next time, doors off! (Reflection is annoying even if you wear black.)

Awesome helicopter tour by Air Maui! We got the West Maui and Molokai tour that lasted around 45 minutes flown by our amazing pilot, Richie. My husband and I were lucky to be seated in front beside the pilot so we had a wider view of the gorgeous scenery during the flight. We previously joined an Oahu heli tour in 2015 (at another heli company) but this was comparably more bang for your buck. During the ride, Richie gave us loads of information about the islands, local Hawaiians and their traditions plus more info on the various waterfalls, tourist spots and land formations we saw. He was a very skilled pilot where he was making maneuvers and getting us close to several waterfalls without making us scared or frantic. The whole ride was so smooth. LOVED that the entire flight had different background music that set the mood for the sites that we saw -- it definitely added more to the whole experience of seeing the islands from above. Upon returning, they show you a printed photo they took before embarking plus a clip of the whole ride complete with Richie's narration, soundtrack plus the views we saw. Naturally, we purchased the package bec it was def worth it! Highly recommend this experience to see the islands from the sky -- you won't regret it!

I'm staying here for a limited time, just visiting from a neighboring island. At first, the staff was helpful in squeezing me in last minute for a next day helicopter tour. However - while the guests aren't able to cancel their flights, the captains of the flights are. Obviously, with weather on the islands, flight conditions change rapidly. But, they don't tell you it's cancelled until you come all the way in for the flight. I wasted 45 dollars on an Uber to get here, just to be told it had been on and off all day. The company should inform guests of the possibility of a cancellation, so that they have the opportunity to back out and not waste their day waiting and driving to the location just to be told it was cancelled. Of course fluke rainstorms happen, but I was told it was debated all day. I will not be booking with this company (Air Maui) again until they change their cancellation policy. On another note, a staff member from Blue Hawaiian helicopters came and reached out to me as I was sitting on the steps waiting. I would 100% book with them simply based on the kindness of this employee, and their cancellation policy is different. Price is not everything, but kindness is. All the views are the same no matter whose helicopter you're sitting in -- these companies are competing for excellent service, not the views that are there and always will be. An update based on the reply: I understand that it was cancelled and why. But it felt as though the company just wanted me to get there so that they could encourage me to purchase another tour as opposed to going home not having booked anything. I could have been told an hour before check in and not been pressured into booking a different flight. Removed a star after further reflection.

Perfect way to start the morning. Our flight was at 7:00 AM, no wind and conditions were perfect. We have been to Maui several times, and taken many tours, however never got around to a helicopter tour until now, and we are so glad we did. If you have not taken one of the helicopter tours with Air Maui, I highly recommend you add it to your list. Our pilot Nathan was very knowledgeable and informative. We had a beautiful ride and got a bit of history as well. This time we did the West Maui/Molokai tour, and when here again we will definitely take another of of the Air Maui tours. As I have already said Nathan was engaging and a great pilot, and I also want to complement the entire staff, as they all were warm and friendly, starting with the reminder call on the day prior. They do let you know they keep on schedule, and they do so don't be late. Lastly I will mention their attention to detail goes all the way down to driving directions printed right on my ticket. All combined for a great experience. Until next time, Aloha!

A pricey experience that you should do once! We did the doors off Molokai tour which delivered an unobstructed views of the some of the prettiest views of Maui. The tour was narrated by our excellent pilot Kurt and had a nice soundtrack in the background. Note: Do sign up for the doors off tour if you are afraid to sit on the edge of the seat. The downforce is massive but if one person does not sit to their edge then the whole cabin gets cramped!

It was great experience. We did the open door tour. Pilot and ground crew was very nice. Only complaint was that in the chopper we were so tight with 6 people. Please do 4 or 5 people crew. Not 6 people

Air Maui did not disappoint! Before leaving Maui, we had to partake in a helicopter tour of the island! Although booking was last minute, we called the company and they were able to fit us in two days later! It's recommended to fly late morning or afternoons as the clouds will have time to clear. Getting there, we used Uber. It's best to put the address provided, otherwise it will just direct your drop off at the airport. Our Uber driver knew exactly where to go once we told her. The staff was very professional and guided us the whole way. We watched a safety video covering the basics. Once on-board, we were given a headset to hear our guided tour from our awesome pilot Cameron! We decided on the full island tour which was an hour long. We saw so many beautiful sites--waterfalls, valleys, the ocean, the mountains-- all with expert and detailed information narrated by Cameron. It was definitely worth it! If you are curious about a helicopter tour, I highly recommend this company! We also got to take home a photo with the helicopter and a USB with the entire guided tour on video for additional purchase.

This is one of the most amazing adventures we have experienced. We chose the Doors Off West Maui and Molokai helicopter tour and we were absolutely awed by the stunning beauty of the experience. My husband kindly let me have the thrill of being next to the opening and it was such a sensory overload. As our pilot flew up into the canyon between foliage covered peaks facing more than 1000 foot waterfall hovering in place turning for the best views. This maneuver was repeated in multiple canyons, one with misty clouds above us. It was so surreal, like being In Jurassic park, it literally took my breath away. After that we were piloted over to the sea cliffs on Molokai. Started at the top and dropped down next to the tallest sea cliffs in the world. This ride just kept giving. It took us hours to come down off our adrenaline rush. If you are going to book any excursion, I'd consider this one first. Must be okay with no doors on the helicopter and maybe being the person on the outside edge.

After deciding between a helicopter tour and biking down Mt. Haleakalā, I am glad we chose the helicopter ride. We reserved our spots through Auntie Snorkel in Kihei to go on a helicopter tour that day. We did the close doors, 60-minute tour of west Maui and Molokai. Arrive early to check in and watch a quick safety video. Six guests fit inside the helicopter comfortably. Each passenger gets a headset to better hear the pilot. We had Captain Kirk (awesome guy!) and he was very informative about the land and legends. He also had some great music taste. The views were breathtaking. They take a picture of you/your group in front of the helicopter before boarding. You can purchase the picture and/or a video of your ride afterwards. Helpful hint: darker shirts help eliminate the glare in the video. The video switches between the passengers in the helicopter and the scenery. The picture and video were about $70 cash or $90 card so make sure to bring some cash. Also don't forget to tip your pilot!

We choose Air Maui for our tour and Vince was our tour guide! I was super nervous and scared but everyone was super nice and Vince made me feel very safe and comfortable during the whole trip! He had a great playlist while in flight and talked to me to help me get my mind off being scared. It was a great trip!

Amazing experience! Our pilot, Vince, gave a great tour of the helicopter. He was kind, had lots of great stories, and has a good "narrator" voice. The views were spectacular and we were lucky enough to have perfect waterfall sightings! Amazing experience! Our pilot, Vince, gave a great tour of the helicopter.

Last week we took the west Maui and Molokai helicopter tour with pilot Troy. Troy had an awesome playlist the complimented the tour very well. He also made sure to turn the helicopter often so everyone had a great view. This was one of the most memorable things we did while on the island and something we will both remember for years and years to come. We were initially concerned that the tour may be canceled/rescheduled due to low lying clouds that would prevent an excellent experience. While we appreciate that they do this we were ready to get in the air. Fortunately for us the tour proceeded and it was incredible! I highly recommend any Air Maui helicopter tour of the islands but seeing the sea cliffs of Molokai is a must! We look forward to visiting again soon and will definitely do another helicopter tour, next time doors off!

Amazing experience with Vince. I opted for the Hana/Haleakala tour. It was beautiful and everyone felt very safe. I paid extra to sit in the front seat. It was completely worth it. We got to see sights that you cant see on foot. We also had a countryside landing which was really nice and relaxing. I recommend a helicopter tour for anyone visiting Maui.
