My wife and I went on the secret falls kayak tour a few days ago and loved it. Our tour guide was Evan and he made the whole trip worth it. He was funny, nice, made sure every one was safe and comfortable. He provided some basic Kayak instruction as my wife hadn't done any before and in no time we were on the river and having a blast. We also crossed a river that was higher than normal and Evan made sure everyone crossed safely and he provided the right balance of information and comedy. We have been to a couple different islands and done other tours and this was the best value and experience.

The four of us took the kayak/hike tour to the waterfall. Evan was a great tour guide. He made sure everyone was safe but let us go at our own pace. He shared a lot of information along the way and we really enjoyed talking about island life with him. The trip was beautiful and not that hard to do. We had only been kayaking once before and were able to get moving up river right away. The van that we were transported in was brand new and comfortable. We were able to tour a native hawaiian fishing village while we waited for the whole group to arrive which was added bonus. The walk to the waterfall was easy but Evan said at times the creek we crossed is higher and harder to cross. Evan talked about the native plants and showed us several really cool trees and plants. We had a good lunch (nothing special but good enough) and they provided two bottles of water each. We all had double kayaks. The price was the best we could find so it was a GREAT value!! Thanks Evan for making our tour so memorable.

Great fun, great value, friendly and helpful staff. (Ryan was a great guide.) We did not plan far in advance. We called Dukes around 9:30AM, asking if they had any availability that day. They did, 12;15 pm. (+1 for flexibility.) They gave good directions, a list of what to bring, and clarified before getting off the phone that they had a 24 hour cancellation policy. Since we were calling less than 3 hours before, they double-checked that I was ok booking the tour. Very honest. The directions were easy to follow, and we arrived on time. We signed a waiver, put our stuff in the provided backpack drybag, and hopped in the van for a 2 mile drive to the marina. After a brief (and sensible) safety intro, we got in our kayaks and got started. (btw, almost all the kayaks are 2-person, but that was ok with us.) The trip up the river was easy, with the wind at our backs. We stayed as a group (4 2-person kayaks) and that meant a bit of waiting at times, but hey, you're on vacation, right? A slightly longer than expected hike to the waterfall was not difficult, but could have been more dicey if the trail was wet. Along the way, Ryan was telling us about the trees, the plants, and the fish. Not a "nature tour," but fun to hear about what's native to Kauai and what isn't. The waterfall was great, albeit crowded, and taking a swim under it was a neat experience. The paddle back was a bit tougher, (into the wind) but nothing to complain about. We had a great time. You should go Kayak with this company!
