One of the highlights of our trip to Kauai - the kayaking and hiking were strenuous enough for our fittest family members but doable for the whole family. River and hike were gorgeous and guide was very knowledgeable and took care with everyone to ensure a fun and safe trip.

Aloha Leslie, Glad the whole family enjoyed. It's a pleasant work out of both upper and lower body...that does not leave most folks spent. Keep enjoying those active moments with the family. Thanks for sharing. Micco

Problems with excursion from the start. Hard to find location because no address or name of company provided. Not the leisurely paddle described. Paddled nonstop for five miles on hot day to keep up with guide. Only take this paddle if you want a strenuous upper body workout and are in very good physical shape.

Aloha Susan, We do have a link solely dedicated on our www site to how to find us at the Wailua River Marina. Apologize if you found the distance and pace not to your fancy. The actual paddle ROUND TRIP flirts around 5 miles. We do promote the tour for the active person, couple or family. Do thank you for your review, for it helps match the tour to the appropriate future folks. Stay well and active and thanks again for taking the time to share. A hui hou, Micco

It was a simple kayaking experience for those that do not want more of it than that. There was a couple that needed to leave early so I felt the group had to cut it short.

Aloha MJ., We try to accommodate everyone from slow to fast paddlers and hikers with more or less 45 minute paddle and 45 minute hike one way with the same amount of time spent at the falls. The river paddling is what they categorize as “Class I” flat and languid. Thanks for taking the time to share and for the 4 “stars”. A hui hou, Micco
