Waterfall, Plantation and Train Ride Shore Excursion (3 hrs)
With cruise ship pier pickup and return, this tour takes you to some of Kauai’s most scenic and culturally rich sites. Begin with a visit to the Opaeka’a Falls, then continue to the Poli’ahu Heiau and the Wailua River Complex as you end your morning with a train ride through the Kilohana Plantation
Opaeka’a Falls Lookout
Your morning shore excursion from the cruise ship pier on Kauai begins with one of the most accessible and beautiful vistas on the island, the tropical waterfall known as Opeaka'a Falls. The sights, sounds, smells, and sheer tranquility of the waterfall have to be experienced to be believed!
Poli’ahu Heiau & Wailua River Cruise
Make your way down the Wailua river on the serene Wailua River Cruise to the Poli’ahu heiau, or ancient Hawaiian temple. This once-bustling complex was a center of culture and religion, and it was also a royal residence when Europeans first arrived on the island in the eighteenth century.
Kilohana Plantation & Train Ride
All aboard the Kilohana Railway for a fully narrated train ride through 105 acres of lush plantation landscapes, filled with tropical orchards and native trees! Explore the lovingly restored manor from the Gilded Age, as well as all of the boutiques and restaurants that today call the place home.
