Waimea Canyon, Wailua River & Fern Grotto Tour

This tour promises a full day of extraordinary natural beauty!

Upon our arrival in Kauai, we will proceed directly to our first destination: Waimea Canyon. Known as "The Grand Canyon of the Pacific," this spectacular gorge stretches over 10 miles (15 kilometers) and is 1 mile wide (1.6 kilometers). You will be enchanted by the sweeping vistas of this geological marvel, characterized by its vibrant red earth and lush vegetation.

Next, we will visit Opaekaa Falls, a serene waterfall standing 151 feet (46 meters) tall and 40 feet (12 meters) wide, making it one of the most impressive and accessible waterfalls on the island. Interestingly, "opaekaa" translates to "rolling shrimp" in the local language.

Our day continues at the Spouting Horn Blowhole, a renowned photo spot where the ocean waves crash against the lava rocks, creating spectacular water displays. We will then proceed to the Hanapepe Valley lookout point, where breathtaking panoramas of tree-covered valleys and wild sugarcane fields await.

Following this, enjoy a peaceful 2-hour open-air boat cruise along the Wailua River. We will then disembark at Fern Grotto, where a short hike through the tropical rainforest leads us to a fern-covered cave. Accompanied by a traditional Hawaiian wedding song, we conclude our tour and return you to the airport for your return flight to Oahu.

After 13.5 hours of exploration, you'll part ways with us to continue your enchanting Hawaiian experience.

Kauai Movie Adventure Tour

If you're a cinema enthusiast, this tour through Kauai is perfect for you, featuring iconic film locations from beloved Hollywood productions.

Upon reaching Kauai, we dive straight into the itinerary. Our first stop is Ahukini Landing, the filming site for the 1963 film "Donovan's Reef", featuring the legendary John Wayne.

Next, we visit Lydgate Beach, recognized as the backdrop for the classic 1961 film "Blue Hawaii", featuring Elvis Presley in a Hawaiian shirt.

Following this, we proceed to Kapaa Town, a more contemporary filming location that set the stage for the 1993 blockbuster "Jurassic Park". Although much of the filming occurred in Oahu, Kauai's lush landscapes contributed significantly to the film's prehistoric feel.

We will then visit Kealia's lookout point and nearby Kalalea Mountain. The lookout offers stunning panoramic views, while Kalalea Mountain is fondly called "King Kong's Profile" for its resemblance to the famous character's head.

Our penultimate destination is Princeville, which inspired scenes from the animated classic "Lilo & Stitch". Finally, we will arrive in the town of Hanalei, known as the location for the Oscar-winning film "The Descendants".

The tour culminates after 13.5 hours of cinematic exploration, bringing you back to the airport for your return to Oahu.
