A great time kayaking and hiking - Excellent day on Wailua River. Our guide was Lindsey and she was knowledgeable and very fun. In addition to providing great information along the way, Lindsey sent us off with lots of info about hikes and other activities. Just a terrific guide. The kayaking was serene and the hike to the falls was beautiful. Highly recommend.

Jay, our guide, was... - Jay, our guide, was awesome! Born & raised on Kauai, he was extremely knowledgeable on Kauai history, and legends as well as the flora, fauna and various animal species. Learned so much! Easy kayaking, and the walking trail to the waterfall where there wasn't the "boardwalk" can be muddy, rocky, with 3 streams to cross and 1-10' large rocks to climb up/down (not too difficult)

GREAT Kayaking Trip with Izzy! - Had an absolutely WONDERFUL trip with Izzy! There were 11 people on our tour, 5 of which were our family including our two kids. Izzy made sure everyone was comfortable with the kayaking and had plans of what she was going to do if anyone wasn’t. She showed us very cool things along the way, including a bird she’s been seeing on the trail for years. She dug up worms and let us feed the bird. We were able to have plenty of time at the falls to eat lunch and take all the pictures we wanted. Fun, relaxing and unique experience!

Family fun in Kauai - Totally AMAZING! Our guide Jeffrey was warm and friendly. He was patient with my daughter and I in assisting us out of the brambles in the kayak. We patiently waited for all of us in our group throughout the kayak and the hike. Well organized and well prepared. A must do if you are in Kauai.
