Lisa was our guide on a beautiful Kauai morning. She was very knowledgable, patient, and friendly. We booked with this company because they did not provide lunch and we like to pack our own lunch. Plus their price was the best, and they had great reviews. Like many have said you don't have to be experienced to do this, as... More

I like the experience with Kayak Wailua. Renee, our guide (and savior) was excellent and very patient. She gave us the introduction and was extremely helpful when we where desperate paddling going nowhere up the river. The walk to the waterfall was beautiful, once there you can have your lunch and take a bath, I found the water to be... More

After experiencing a couple of pretty wet days, we were somewhat apprehensive as to just what we were in for! in the event it was great fun, made more so by our guide Kevin who's obvious enthusiasm & constant stream of information added to the overall enjoyment for all. The slippery mud, the tree roots, the river crossing, the bugs,... More

Went on a five hour kayak tour with Kyle as our guide, who was wonderful. Very patient, kind, laid back, and knowledgeable. We kayaked down the river to a very muddy trail to a waterfall - and picnicked there. Bring lunch, and shoes that have some grip and can get wet. I would recommend this trip and this company!

Went on a kayak trip today with Kayak Wailua. Kyle our guide was very knowledgable with the local plants and animals. Kept us safe on the muddy hike. Waterfall was worth the hike. The company was easy to find and very helpful. Price was great as well,

We had a fantastic time kayaking, hiking and swimming. Our guide Kavika was a lot of fun and a wealth of knowledge. You will definitely get wet and muddy. Embrace and enjoy!

My husband and I were in Kauai last week and we had great weather for all of our activities, but I don't think a little rain would have spoiled our adventures. This was SO much fun! It was a little muddy, but we ain't afraid a no mud! I would recommend a light rain proof jacket if you aren't hip... More

We booked this trip after reading the great reviews and were not disappointed. After meeting at the designated time and receiving a brief orientation we were driven the short distance to the marina. Our Guide was Lisa who was, helpful, knowledgeble, and just a pleasure to be around. I would say the following about the trip itself. 1. You do... More

Great reservation and phone support, great parking, great supplies, these folks know what they are doing and know how to do it! Our guide, Lisa, was terrific, fun and informative, never rushed us and kept the group together. This tour was some work, I would like to say that my arms and legs don't hurt today, but that wouldn't be... More
