Kayak adventure down the Wailua River & Fun Hike to the Falls - We had the best time Kayaking down the Wailua River with our amazing tour guide Lindsey Kaye. The views were beautiful, the hike was fun and not too challenging. The man-made path was helpful not to slip. Lunch was great and very accommodating with my dietary restrictions. Our guide took photos of us and was so kind and helpful. Lindsey shared some fun facts about the river, trees, and history of the lands we were walking on. She also made us feel safe. Would highly recommend this tour.

Best experience of our... - Best experience of our stay on Kauai. Our guide, Annie, was outstanding! Very professional in her explanation to us, a couple of novices, on what to do. She was also very knowledgeable on the history and details of the river. We will surely revisit on our next trip to Kauai.

One of the best excursions I have accomplished so far. - By the guidance of our awesome guide, I saw a koi fish on the way back to base. Overall, our guide made things easy. I’m also empress that she barefoot all the way to the hidden waterfall trail and back to our canoes. It was an easy pedaling, she was very patient with us and made the group pedaling at their own individual pace. The hike was very easy, no hills to climb. About two miles pedaling and 1.5 hiking one way. I’m sorry that I forgot my guide name, but I believe it was Ezzy.

Best tour guide Izzy! - This trip was amazing. It was everything we hoped for; a beautiful and easy kayak to a hike up to the falls. The lunch was perfect at the falls. We want to give. Give shout out to our guide, Izzy! She was so knowledgeable about the flora and fauna, history and was an experienced and safe guide. We would absolutely recommend this tour.

Overrated - Nice River, nice views. Beyond that…our guide was pretty uninspired, totally oblivious of where the members of his tour were, the hike was tenuous and challenging on the feet, the eventual “waterfall” was totally anti-climactic, being no more than a trickle. Would NOT recommend this tour
