What To Expect

Sierra was terrific. She explained everything well and made sure everyone was safe. She was fun, professional, and knowledgeable. My husband and I enjoy learning about island vegetation and medicinal uses for native plants. It was an active adventure, which is what we love. Our destination, Secret Falls, was breathtaking!

If you’re not wanting to do the 8- to 11-mile hikes in Koke’e or Waimea State Parks, this is a great way to get a hike in and see or even swim to a waterfall without over exerting yourself. That said, the hiking part of the tour is quite precarious in spots as you’re trekking over slippery clay, small and large rocks, tree roots, several rocky streams, boulders and cliffs. If you’re older than 65, I’m not sure this is the hike for you. You must have good balance and strong legs. Once you get to the falls, it is an amazing experience! The kayaking part was very beautiful and peaceful. Our guide—I think his name was Cody—was very knowledgeable, and directed the group very well! I highly recommend this excursion and tour group! Five stars!!
