10/10 Recommend! Izzy was our guide, though I’m sure they’re all awesome! The river and the hike are beautiful! I will say… there was a family with small children in our group would had to turn around because they couldn’t complete the kayak. And another couple who couldn’t make it up the muddy hike. You don’t have to be an outdoor adventure fanatic to make it up… but be realistic about what you can do! If you can do short/moderately difficult hike in the mud, AND can swim/have been on a kayak before this excursion is so awesome and you should totally do it!! If not, many choose something else! I, however, will be back!!

Aloha Amber,
What a very nice and informative review.
First of all, YES all our guides are awesome, but Izzy is special and inhabits a an arena we all clamor for!
Thanks for warning folks that there is some effort involved and to be "realistic" about if this is something they should do and accomplish; paddling 45 minutes and hiking that amount of time is not for everyone and when it isn't unfortunately there is no refund.
Thanks again and looking forward to your return. Check out our Hanalei Blue Lagoon paddle & snorkel.
A hui hou,
Micco
