Started with a kayak ride down a very beautiful river. Really good sight seeing along the way. Followed it with a hike to the waterfall that was so beautiful. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a fun half day trip!!!

Discover the hidden beauty of Uluwehi Falls (Secret Falls), Kauai’s most sought-after waterfall destination. Skip the hassle of parking, equipment rentals, and crowded state park lots—simply arrive at our convenient riverside location and let the adventure begin. Guides handle all kayak setup and gear so you can focus on the journey. Paddle up Hawaii’s legendary Wailua River through lush rainforest scenery, then trek, splash, and explore your way to a spectacular 120-foot waterfall. Adventurers should be comfortable in the water and ready for a physically rewarding outing—expect a 4-mile roundtrip paddle and a moderate 2-mile hike with stream crossings and muddy, uneven trails. This is the easiest way to unleash your inner explorer and experience Kauai’s most iconic waterfall, with all logistics handled for you.

We had the misfortune of having Sam as a guide. After getting to the falls, we simply asked how long we would be staying there. He actually yelled at us saying, "why did you even book this tour!" We aren't sure what triggered this unprofessional and aggressive outburst, but it made us feel very unsafe, being several miles from civilization. He then tried to leave us behind, and not return us to the drop-off point. My wife was very afraid after this whole experience, and we rushed to get back to our ship as soon as we could. I would never ever go back to this place, and probably not to the whole island of Kauai. We've never experienced such a poor excuse for a tour guide in our lives. You have a ton of options for tours, choose something else.

That you're in the BEST hands with Cory as your guide - he was amazingly knowledgeable, patient & super helpful to me up & down the more difficult parts of the hike - even offered to kayak me back which i didn't do - but he offered & offered. Thank you Cory for an amazing experience!!!

Great guided tour. The kayaking was beautiful and fun. Weather was perfect. The guide was very helpful and engaging. We very much enjoyed this tour. Just Be aware during rainy times the path gets very very muddy.
