What To Expect

Paddle the majestic Wailua River for 2 miles each way (4 miles total round trip), original home of the first Hawaiians, who paddled 1500 miles from the Marquesas Islands to Kaua`i almost 1500 years ago. Hear the legends and learn about the flora and fauna of Kauai`s most sacred area.

Secret Falls (Uluwehi Falls)

After hiking 1 1/4 miles through the rain forest our guides will take clients to Secret Falls also known as Uluwehi Falls. This beautiful waterfall cascades 110 feet into a refreshing swimming hole, where they can go for a dip and enjoy a terrific lunch! You will then hike 1 1/4 miles back to your kayak (2 1/2 miles of hiking round trip) Bring Closed Toed Shoes / Reef shoes / Teeva Style Sandals

For our trip we kayaked up the Wailua river and then hiked about a mile to the "secret" waterfall. The entire outing went smoothly and while typically Kauai casual, it was run very professionally. Our guide for the day, Matt, was very friendly and knowledgeable about the local history and local plant life in the region. I would recommend this trip and business to everyone. We will certainly book any future trips through them without hesitation. Thanks!

We had a really nice time on this tour. The Kayak trip was moderate to easy as well as the hike. And the waterfall we went to was great really nice swim and we were able to swim behind the falls. And the guide was absolutely top shelf. Tom the guide was great. It is a pleasure to do these tours with people who enjoy and take pride in their work and really want you to enjoy your time as well. Thank you to the team at Rainbow Kayak and thank you to Tom.

The trip up the river was beautiful as was the hike to the waterfall and the waterfall. We could have done this on our own so much cheaper by just renting a kayak, considering our tour guide did not talk much during the tour and walked at such a pace that it felt like speed walking. On the trip back to the marina the tour guide Annie left a kayak behind. I do not regret going to see the waterfall or the kayak trip on the river. I do regret spending $89 for a tour guide who rushed us and left people from my group behind.

Thank you for coming out with Rainbow Kayak Tours, and for your honest feed back. We sincerely apologize our guide did not share historic information during your tour, and made you feel as you were being rushed. We will address this issue immediately with Annie. I would appreciate it if you could kindly email me privately, I would like to ask a couple questions if it's okay with you. I hope to hear from you, and hope your having a wonderful day!
