We booked this excursion through Norwegian Cruise Lines. It was a great way to get away from the touristy side of the Hawaiian islands and enjoy the beauty of nature. Jamie and Mitch did a great job of bringing a bunch of strangers together for a fun and informational adventure. Both the kayaking and hike were perfect for us old, out-of-shape tourists. On the way back we encountered an unfortunate non-life threatening situation with a non-guided group of tourists and a not so helpful naked local. Our guides did their best to assist while making sure we were not late for our ship. It gave me much comfort knowing both our guides and our equipment were in top shape. Don't leave Kauai without trying this excursion!

Aloha Sharon, Mahalo for the excellent review. Tours are always better (and safer) with a guide. Glad you saw some of the true beauty of Kauai. We have a lot more to offer. Please join us again for another excursion in nature.

What an amazing day on the Wailua River as well as seeing the Wailua Falls!!! One of the most important reasons why it was fabulous was our tour guides, Kegan!!! He was so open, allowed us to ask questions at any point and also just talked about Kauai in general and it’s history and the nature sounding us! Highly recommend the company and if you can, ask for Kegan to be your tour guide!!

Kamili was a great guide. She explained about the flora and fauna and made sure everyone was all setup in the kayaks. She made an effort to learn everyone’s names which I really appreciated. She gave a kayak demonstration at the beginning. The home to Hidden Falls is flat, short and very easy. It was muddy in some sections as well as at the falls so I’d recommend closed-toe shoes with a tread - not street sneakers nor flip flops. I wore my Keens and that was perfect. Some of the people in our group were in open-toed sandals with a strap - they seemed fine it again, I would suggest something closed to protect your toes as the trail is rocky with branches and debris. We are fit, and in our early 40s. We’ve kayaked many times but it had been a couple years since our last kayak excursion. It was about 40 minutes of easy kayaking with the wind. On the way back, instead of kayaking upstream, we were picked up by a motorized boat and the kayaks were tied to the back. It was a really nice way to end the afternoon. For a relaxing, easy, but adventurous activity on Kauai, do the kayaking + hike to Hidden Falls.
