Kipu Safari Adventure - Zipline, Hike, Kayak & Waterfall Swim with Lunch
Overall Rating
4.76Great Adventure!
Reviewed by: Jason, 2024/01/06Overall it was a great experience! We had two guides, first for the kayak then another guide joined us once we were done kayaking. Both guides were easy to talk with, funny, and knew the land's history and the foliage. The fun stops with jumping into pools of water. The ziplines were a blast! The final plunge into another pool of water was awesome! The lunch was yummy. The company accommodated our request with a gluten-free bread and treat! I would highly recommend the trip!

Fun on the Ranch
Reviewed by: Tristan , 2022/04/26Keegan and Saber (incredibly unsure on both of those spellings) were amazing guides. They were super laid back, funny, knowledgeable, and thorough. These guys were fun to follow around for the day, breaking up sections to explain plant life, facts about Kauai or parts of the Kipu Ranch, and of course some harmless practical jokes on us tourists. Everything was very safe and friendly and they made sure to give clear instructions in regards to matters of safety and equipment. It made for a rather seamless and enjoyable experience for all. I cannot recommend this company/excursion enough!

Fun way to end our trip!
Reviewed by: Kelli Stein, 2021/11/13We came as a group of 10 to celebrate a teen birthday on our last day! The guides were very relaxed and fun. They keep you intrigued while passing thru each leg of the journey. The swim holes are epic! Like highlight of the tour for me! The zips were easy, fun and different! I've been on many styles of ziplines, never like some of these! Fun treat! The river was beautiful and the lush hike was very dense and felt super adventurous! Thanks to Keegan and "Grumpy" (not really) for making it a fun day in nature!

An AMAZING Adventure!!
Reviewed by: Alicia D, 2017/08/30My husband and I had an amazing adventure zip lining (for the first time ever!) kayaking, hiking and swimming on the beautiful island of Kaua'i. Our tour guides, Dan, Flip, and Matteas were incredible. SO fun, supportive, informative, and upbeat and really put Me at ease with the things that were more "scary" for me. They are true professionals with a fun-loving spirit and made me feel safe and secure while laughing a LOT! They also know the history, botany, and many interesting facts and stories about the island, so we learned a lot. Now I know what leaf to use As a natural insect repellant! I highly recommend this adventure to anyone who wants to get out and truly experience Kaua'i up close and personal!

Perfect for us!
Reviewed by: Jenny , 2016/12/26This was amazing & worth every penny. The hike was challenging because of the slippery, muddy, sloping terrain, but everybody in the group managed it without a problem. We had a blast. The staff were super!

Book it!
Reviewed by: Erik, 2016/10/26Fantastic experience with professional and fun guides. We booked this activity due to the diversity of the kayak-swim-zipline activities offered, which we thought would be perfect for our group of 6 ranging in age from 11 to 68. We were not disappointed. Easygoing and fun tour guides, great activities and a relaxed and fun atmosphere, coupled with a great lunch made for an overall epic day. Book it!

Kayak/ Hike/ Zip
Reviewed by: Kelly, Scott Maxwell, 2015/07/10This was a wonderful activity. The guides are knowledgable, patient, and friendly. Be sure to wear your bug repellant on the hike. It takes a little time to get going, but the tips for proper kayaking/zipping and safety are well worth it!! A special shout out to Mahow (Heavenly Mist) and Aaron, you're AWESOME.

Great value for the money & SO FUN!
Reviewed by: Leddon, 2012/05/19We had an amazing adventure with the wonderful staff at Outfitters Kauai. The zips were so fun, and we felt very safe. The kayak in was a fun little adventure and the hike in wasn't tough at all. The staff were so wonderful. We felt like there us no way we could have had so much fun for a whole day deal for the price. Nick, Mitch, and Golden were so funny and personable. Bring a camera with a wrist strap, your swim suit for the two swimming holes (one with a mini zip), sunscreen, water shoes, and big spray. Mahalo, Outfitters!! Ya'll are the best!

Great Activity
Reviewed by: Jessica, 2011/10/22My husband and I were island-hopping on our honeymoon when we participated in the Zipline Safari with Hiking and Kayaking in Kauai. One of our guides said he felt it was his job to make us fall in love with his island, and this tour certainly helped us do that. The price was fair for all of the inclusions of the tour, and the lunch provided was more than enough food. We had never been kayaking, but the river was very smooth and calm, so we were able to keep up and didn't have any issues. The hikes, swimming spots, stories, and "history lessons" were amazing. I have never seen such a beautiful forest. The Zipline was awesome as well and our guides took every safety precaution necessary to make us feel at ease. I would definitely recommend this activity for anyone looking for a more physical adventure. Be sure to wear a bathing suit, sunscreen, and bring hiking sandals or water socks because you should definitely get wet!

Absolutely Unforgettable
Reviewed by: Steve and Maria, 2011/05/14My wife an I are both empty nesters (read that to mean at or near 50.) We've both been travelers and everywhere we go, we schedule events that expose us to the area we are visiting and the people and history of the area.
This event was so much fun and at no time did we feel anything be valued as being in the care and guidance of Dida and Danny.
You will meet people from all corners of the world. Eat a good low fat breakfast the morning of this event. Water is provided, and take advantage of it.
Our personal thanks to this outfitter for giving us a memory of our visit to Kauai we will never forget.

Kipu Zipline Safari
Reviewed by: William, 2010/12/07Kipu Zipline Safari was a blast!! The tour is packed with 7 hours of fun activities. Although little pricey, but there is no other tour package on the island that can rival the Kipu Safari in terms of excitement. The tour guides are very knowledgeable about the island and extremely friendly. They're also very careful in handling our food. However, for those of you whose ideas of fun includes relaxing and sunbathing at the beach, this trip is not for you. But, if you're interested in little adventures and learnings and don't mind getting wet and muddy, this trip is not be missed.

Kipu Zipline Safari - Awesome!
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2010/06/18We just returned from an awesome trip to Kauai and this was by far our favorite activity! It had a little of everything...kayaking, hiking, ziplines and cooling off in a stream fed pool. I was a little concerned about our kids, ages 9 and 11, but they handled the kayaking, hiking and ziplining with ease. We thought it was definitely worth the money. The 1800' zip was the best! We would do it again in a heartbeat!

ziplining, hiking, kayaking
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2010/05/28My boyfriend and I had a really great time on this adventure. Our favorite part was the ziplining. We wish there were more lines! I'm scared of heights but enjoyed it so much I can't wait to do it again!
The kayaking was nice despite the rain. We saw a few "movie spots" during our ride down the river. Also, saw some really beautiful sceneries.
The hiking was not strenuous but there were a few times where you really had to watch your step. Also, for those very prone to mosquito bites, be sure to put it on! It was pretty windy so the guides said we probably wouldn't have to worry about the mosquitos but I ended up getting bit 6 times before I was able to put some repellant.
Overall, a really great experience. This is a great tour if you want a piece of everything.

Adventure
Reviewed by: Ed, 2010/04/01We absolutely loved this outing! It was a little bit of everything. The view from the kayak was amazing and the hikes are no where near as strenuous as they note. The ziplines were more than we expected. There are two zips and the final one being tandem and nearly 1800'. Awesome!! The guides were extremely friendly and make the experience enjoyable and informational. We will definitely do this trip again!!

Kayak, ranch hike, Zip line
Reviewed by: Cheryl Doherty, 2010/03/23We had a wonderful time. The scenery is spectacular, and everything we did on this excursion was fun and exciting! Highly recommend it. It is strenous though so keep that in mind.
We did our trip on March 19, 2010, my husband and I are over 50 years old and my daughter and her friend 19 years old.
Hope to do it again one day!
Thank you to the staff, they are wonderful!

Had a Fantastic Time
Reviewed by: Allison Cook, 2009/05/28I had such a great time on the Safari tour. I had Alex, Maggie and Adrienne as my tour guides and they were FANTASTIC! Our group laughed so much and I felt really safe having Alex and Adrienne there to explain what we were supposed to do during the zipline and jumping off Kipu falls. I had a blast and was totally pumped up after I left for the rest of the day. I would recommend this tour to everyone who's going to Kauai!
Thanks so much for the fabulous adventure!

You have to !
Reviewed by: Bruce, 2008/11/30If you want to do something off the normal "Lounge Chair Larry", this is the trip to take. We met wonderful friends, enjoyed the whole day, and tested our mettle to boot ! I'd do this again, and would put on the bug spray as soon as the kayaking is done. I even loved the turkey sandwiches and pasta salad !Great team with Adam and Kaite and both should get a raise !!!

Kipu Falls with Lauren and Nate
Reviewed by: C2O, 2008/03/27My friends and I can't say enough good things about the staff at Outfitters Kauai. We had a blast with the staff during our kayaking, hiking, swimming, rope-swinging, truck riding. Everyone, from Rachel to Lauren to Nate were all very pleasant, humorous and overall good people. This excursion is absolutely recommended for anyone and everyone looking for an overall great time. This is absolutely the first thing that we will be looking forward to on our next visit to Kauai.

Great trip
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2008/02/11Overall this was a great trip. It would have been a little nicer to have a slightly smaller group (we had 20 people and they told us it was one of the largest they had ever done), but otherwise excellent.
Staff was super friendly and knowledgeable and it was a LOT of fun!
