Maui Helicopter Tours ? Enjoy the West Maui Molokai Tour
Boasting nearly perfect year-round travel weather, thousands of acres of unspoiled natural beauty, the best beaches in the world, award-winning restaurants and cuisine, world-class golf courses, upscale shopping, luxury resorts, art galleries featuring local artists, amazing snorkel and scuba sites, and more family activities than any other Hawaiian island, it’s easy to see why Maui was named the Best Island in the World by Conde Nast Traveler 15 years in a row!
Hawaii is the most geographically remote, yet well-populated land in the world. North America, the nearest continent, lies some 2400 miles away. Maui is 727.3 square miles with 120 miles of coastline. More than 80% of the most stunning scenery and unspoiled beauty is inaccessible due to lack of roads and hiking trails leading into the interior sections. Taking a helicopter ride, like the West Maui Molokai Tour, is the most effective way to see Maui.
The Hana and Haleakala Tour is probably the most popular flight to do on the island of Maui because it covers the two main scenic points, but my personal favorite is the West Maui Molokai Tour.
The West Maui Mountains, or Mauna Kahalawai as it is traditionally known by Hawaiians, with its many peaks and ridges is the older of two volcanoes that form the island of Maui. The highest peak, Pu’u Kukui stands at 5,778 feet and is located in the upper regions of the mountain on the Western end. Imagine, a bird’s-eye view of this natural beauty via the West Maui Molokai Tour.
Pu’u Kukui is known as the second wettest spot on earth, second only to Mount Wai’ale’ale on Kaua’i. The abundance of water that flow from these mountains is the source of dozens of incredible waterfalls like the Wall of Tears that feed the streams and sparkling blue pools that run along the rainforest floor. The tallest waterfall on Maui, Honokohau Falls, is also located here A West Maui Molokai Tour expedition offers exquisite viewing of spectacular waterfalls!
This first segment of the West Maui Molokai Tour is only a prelude to even more fantastic views. With such eye-popping scenery it’s difficult to know where to begin to describe the wonders that you’ll find on the final leg of the West Maui Molokai Tour, on the remarkable “Friendly Isle” of Molokai.
The Sea Cliffs of Molokai, the tallest in the world, is the first thing to greet you as you journey across the Pailolo channel. The shear size and magnitude of these spectacular sea cliffs will leave you in awe. You can truly appreciate nature’s grandeur from a helicopter excursion, specifically the West Maui Molokai Tour.
From The National Historical Landmark Kalaupapa Settlement to the treasured vistas of Halawa Valley, the West Maui Molokai Tour may provide you a view of Kahiwa Falls (tallest in Hawaii), Papalaua Falls, Wailau Valley, Ancient Hawaiian Fish Ponds, the Molokai Reef (longest fringe reef in the US) and the archeologically rich Halawa Valley with Moalua Falls and Hipuapua Falls.
On the return home the West Maui Molokai Tour will visit Lahaina, once the home to many of Hawaii’s Royalty and the former Whaling Capitol of the World.
Your West Maui Molokai Tour concludes with a visit through Iao Valley State Park where an epic battle to unite the Hawaiian islands were fought between the armies of Kamehameha and Kalanikupule.
The West Maui Molokai Tour promises to be one of the most memorable experiences of your life.

Magaluf in Majorca ? Enjoy the True Sense of Joie De Vivre
Imagine an isle that has sunshine 95% of the year. Add to that a cerulean sky and an azure blue sea. This would be Magaluf in Majorca – truly a destination like no other. Visited by thousands upon thousands of tourists annually, this destination is a favourite of both families and couples.
One of the most riveting questions one would ask is – “What is so special about Magaluf?” unfortunately mere words would not do any justice to this unique spot. There are many attractions here that would appeal to a diverse cross section of people, young and old, couple or family. That truly is the beauty of Magaluf, it does indeed have an uncanny universal appeal. As one would know, Magaluf has an enviable history that spans centuries. Its history is part of Roman history that has its roots in antiquity. Besides knowing the fact that you would be stepping on an island that is teeming with heritage and history, the well versed traveller would be aware that many hotels such as the hotels in Majorca offer absolute carnal and modish facilities that would cater to any discerning traveller.
So besides heritage, history and Majorca hotels – what else is there? Frankly, this is a spot that is quite able to cater to your every whim and fancy. It would be fair to note that there is a contemporary twist on the concept of “fun” here. For example, there are a myriad of attractions and activities that fun loving tourists can partake in such as water parks with pirate themes or visit zoos and aquariums. It would be the ideal dose of fun for the young ones; whilst the adults are sure to enjoy a round of golf and tourist expeditions to view the local heritage and history.
Truly, Magaluf is a family friendly destination. However, this is also an island noted for its party appeal. Visited by young tourists from throughout the world, famous DJs are ever present to provide a bacchanalian party atmosphere throughout the entire year.
Whilst there is attention given to style, there is also a dose of focus given to substance as well. Magaluf is widely noted for its cuisine and wine. And like everything else in Magaluf, there is history and a sense of occasion attached to it, so much so that it is guaranteed to leave your senses titillated. There is one particular dish that is called llom amb col which is a must have. It is pork with a mix of cabbage coupled with raisins and nuts.
Having been imbued with so many attractions and activities, another fact of Magaluf needs to be mentioned. And that is the numerous festivals that take place all year round. What these festivals usually entail is appreciation for a patron saint. The festivities include dancing, revelry, a cornucopia of wine and food not to mention the heady and kaleidoscopic floats and stylized dances that accompany such festivals. This per se is a tourist attraction and has its roots in religious and pagan ideals.
So there you have it. A location that boasts a plethora of things to do. The common misconception that people have about Magaluf is that it still lives in its past and as a consequence is unrefined and “rural” in its offerings. This is simply erroneous hearsay. The fact that Magaluf is teeming with activities and heightened levels of fun is a by product of a fruition between its inimitable past and contemporary present. So what you have is old world charm with an enviable past and a present that is both modern and luxurious. You as a visitor in Magaluf would not be left wanting.
Relax and enjoy the sunset in Santorini of Greece
Hot sunny days and the warm Aegean Sea entice thousands of holidaymakers to the Greek islands every year. This area is the birthplace of Western civilization and almost everywhere you go there is evidence of the rich, and often violent, past.
Santorini, part of the Cyclades group of islands, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Greece.
Home to an outpost of Minoans in ancient times, the island has been occupied by a variety of powers as civilisations rose and fell over time. 3,600 years ago a giant volcanic eruption, ten times as large as that at Krakatoa, radically transformed the geography of the island. It created a huge lagoon, approximately 12 kilometres long by 7 kilometres wide, which is connected to the sea in two places. The water in the centre of the lagoon is nearly 400 metres deep. This depth, coupled with the shelter offered by the surrounding islands, made the lagoon an ideal harbour for everyone from ancient Phoenicians to modern holidaymakers on yachting holidays.
If you are planning a sailing holiday in the area I recommend a few days ashore on Santorini. For one thing, watching the sunset from a boat can be magical, but watching it while relaxing with a drink, sitting in the cliff top terrace of a Santorini hotel, is an experience you will never forget. Light shimmers and dances across the Aegean. The sky turns oranges. You gaze down 1,000 feet to the harbour where luxury yachts appear no bigger than toys. The world seems at peace, and the stresses of modern living float away.
Recommendations from friends are always good, but if you are being the trailblazer then the Internet is packed with information to help you choose which Santorini luxury hotel is right for you. From budget to luxurious, from homely to sophisticated, or from romantic honeymoon spot to family-friendly fun there are lots of Santorini luxury hotels geared to your taste. Go on. People have been visiting Santorini for thousands of years. Try it for yourself to find out why.
