We selected the road tour as we like seeing the true flavor of places. We saw what we expected and the driver brought good weather too. Driver was knowledgeable in area history and customs and there were many breaks from restrooms, etc. nothing was rushed.

This was an 11 hr excursion booked through Norwegian Cruise Line. Lisa made this a wonderful trip. She educated us about the plant life and beautiful culture of Kauai. We visited Waimea Canyon and Opaekaa Falls with several small stops along the way. It all ended with the luau at Kilohana Plantation.

This was a great tour. John was very knowledgeable and shared many interesting stories. There were only 4 people on this tour was it was like having a private tour. His timing was great to see the Canyon before the Vog rolled in. What an awesome day. Thank you John!
