Journey to the magical valley of Waipio, viewing secluded and mysterious sights that can only be captured by air. Laced with waterfalls, hidden rivers and streams, taro patches, fish ponds and a wide array of native fruit trees, Waipio is the largest valley on the Big Island. See if you can spot the ancient Hawaiian ruins and heiau (Hawaiian temple) that pepper the landscape along the way.
Sail over historic Kohala, the legendary birthplace of Hawaii's famous monarch - King Kamehameha. The Kohala Coast with its friendly little towns, rich cultural history and scenic magnificence is not to be missed.
Cruise through weather etched valleys and sheer cliffs rising majestically out from the Pacific. Turning inland, you'll navigate across the verdant fields and pastures of Parker Ranch, Hawaii's largest cattle ranch before calling it a day. Photo opportunities abound at this spectacular aerial odyssey.
