Plane
We went on a plane ride with Wings over Kauai. We went up with Bruce, who runs the company, and he was great at pointing out all the sights from the air. The aerial view of Kauai really added a lot to the trip fun level. Ray is a flight instructor and flew the plane on this trip. It's probably easier to get nice panoramic photos from an airplane than a helicopter because the airplane flies higher and so you're better able to appreciate the sweeping landscape. On the other hand, a helicopter brings you much closer, and I can imagine that the waterfalls and pali are quite spectacular up close.
