Izzy was a wonderful guide. Great directions for safety. Ego booster to ones that have never paddled before. Paid attention to details of the paddlers to see if they needed guidance or equipment adjusted. Shared interesting facts along the way. Recommended some great places to eat during our vacation. It was a fabulous day for these 70 year olds.

Aloha Heather, Nice to see folks my age, i.e. 72, still enjoying the great outdoors and the is no better guide than Izzy to smooth the paddle on the lazy and placid Wailua River. Izzy has the "patience of Job" and excels in her job of keeping you safe, informed with fun. Thanks for taking the time to share. A hui hou, Micco

Aloha Wana, So Lindsey made you "wana" kayak again (sorry I could not resist) Everybody loves Lindsey! Your guide Lindsey continues to irmprove and really cares about providing a top notch tour whether it it is to the falls or just “row row…rowing” you kayak up the lazy Wailua. Will share your kind words with Lindsey; I know she will be pleased. Thanks, Micco
