Koloa Zipline in Kauai

larrybO363TY, Sep 2026

Exciting, thrilling and everything we thought it would be and more.

Our guides were Eden and bubblelicous they were awesome. Great job explaining everything that we're going to do and made sure everyone was safe but made sure it was a lot of fun. Most definitely would do this again. It was totally righteous.

Adventure, beauty and tons of fun!

We loved our zipline tour! It was fun, efficient and I felt very safe. It was a last minute booking and we had a blast. I loved how it was close to our hotel and was a nice outing for a few hours without being all day. It was also very shaded!

An Amazing Local Kauaʻi Experience!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Shasta and this family owned tour company. This was truly a top notch experience from beginning to end.Shasta is a local, and that made our tour feel so much more special. She shared beautiful places around Kauaʻi that felt like the kinds of places only locals would know. We weren’t simply sightseeing. We felt like we were getting to experience the island through someone who genuinely loves it and knows it so well.One of our stops was the beautiful Wailua Falls, and if you have the opportunity while you’re there, I hope you also get to meet Makepa B, the Lauhala Man. He was such a special person to meet and talk with and added another wonderful memory to our day. I thoroughly recommend taking the time to visit with him. You can also purchase a beautiful handmade keepsake to bring home, which makes the experience even more special.Shasta also took us to a wonderful local spot where we enjoyed fresh sugar cane and smoothies made with incredibly fresh ingredients. These little local experiences were some of my favorite parts of the day because they made the tour feel so authentic. It felt like we were getting a glimpse of the real Kauaʻi rather than just visiting the usual tourist stops.Because this was a small group island waterfall tour, we received such wonderful personal attention. Shasta was lovely, knowledgeable, fun, and incredibly helpful. We all had such a great time with her.What impressed me even more was how much she genuinely cared about us. I needed to get to the airport on time after the tour, and Shasta went out of her way to make sure I got there, personally dropping me off. That kind of kindness and customer service is something you don’t forget.Between the waterfalls, the beautiful scenery, the local experiences, and Shasta’s personal attention, this was such a special way to experience Kauaʻi. I would 100% recommend this family owned company and Shasta to anyone visiting the island.We had so much fun, made some wonderful memories, and I would book this tour again without hesitation! 🌺🌴

Movie Tour

It's a great tour to see the inland. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and nice, so was the driver. Lots of getting off and on the bus to see the beauty of the area. Showed clips of movies and tv shows, which helped put the picture with the area. I would do it again.

Wailua River & Waterfalls Kayak Tour: Expert-Guided Adventure

Kayla, Aug 2026

A Magical Way To Spend Your Morning or Day

Kayaking up the Wailua River was a magical experience. The river is so serene, and filled with beautiful hibiscus flowers. It’s like a scene from a dream. The hike to the waterfall is a bit intense (mud, slippery rocks, fallen trees) but with the right footwear (reef shoes are ideal) and some patience it is a very rewarding hike. The waterfall is beautiful! We jumped in and swam under the fall, very refreshing. The lunch was delicious, especially after all the activities. The sandwiches and fresh pineapple really hit the spot. Our guide, Thomas, was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable, sharing with us secrets of the forest. I would suggest going with the earlier morning tours, as it begins to get very hot in the afternoon. An overall beautiful time, highly recommend!

Poipu and Koloa E-Bike Scenic Tour

Darrin_L, Aug 2026

Live narration as we traveled through Poipu

Our tour was lead by the owners, Lori and Eugene. We were greeted at the meeting point where the e-bikes were prepped. Because my wife and I completed our waivers ahead of time, all that was left to do was get on our bikes and start the tour. Lori lead the way and ensured all the guests were familiarized with the technical use of the bikes. As we traveled, she used a radio transmitter to speak to all seven of the guests whose bikes were equipped with wireless speakers. It was a huge plus to receive the historical background of the different sites in real time as we encountered them with wheels rolling. There were several stops that allowed everyone to rest a bit, get a snack, and use the restroom. At each stop, Eugene and Lori presented local knowledge like seasoned team teachers. They did a nice job complementing one another, picking up where the other left off. The 3-hour tour was just the right amount of time to get a feel of Poipu and the surrounding area.

Superb Shasta

Shasta was the best tour guide! I truly loved getting to spend the day learning about Kauai, asking questions, and being with a group that had the same interests. Shasta made the tour fun, exciting, and had amazing recommendations. My favorite stop was Holoholoku Heiau and learning who Ku was. As I was leaving, I found a rock in the shape of a heart.
