The paddle was amazing. Logan is the best guide. Viator provided the wrong meet up point and caused us to be late. Luckily the paddle people so very accommodating and friendly!

Aloha Mark, Logan does bring a real enthusiasm with his stentorian and booming voice full of info and fun. Glad we were able to get you all on board in spite of wrong directions. Thanks for sharing. A hui hou, Micco

We booked a kayak tour for Tuesday, Feb 4. When we got there we were the only couple booked for that time, so we basically had a private tour with Jay. We had a great time on the river, it was a beautiful day with a bit of rain on and off. Jay is a great guide! He gave us a lot of information about Kauai and his life on the island. His pride of living in Kauai was very evident....we enjoyed listening to his stories as we paddled and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. When we got back to the dock, Jay brought us some wonderful pineapple to snack on. We will recommend Kayak Kauai and Jay to everyone we know going to the island. We also look forward to coming back again! Lee and Susan

Aloha Lee and/or Susan, Glad you enjoyed your guideJay on your Wailua River Paddle. I personally love paddling in the rain with the moods changing with the sun, clouds, and rainbows. We all love living on Kaua'i and folks like yourselves make it possible to not only share our love but to remain on this beautiful island called Kaua'i; thanks! Thanks for taking the time....and until our wakes cross. Stay active. A hui hou,

We really enjoyed our paddle up the river. It's a beautiful area, very lush, and some rare bird sightings along the way. Our guide Jay was fantastic - very knowledgeable and very easy-going allowing us to set the pace and decide how we wanted to spend the time. Would highly recommend!
