Wailua River

Large boat brings you about 30 mins down river with a tour guide speaking overhead. Our tour guide was very funny and was probably my favorite part of this activity. You’ll disembark at an area with walkways/bathroom thr... moreough a lush rainforest that eventually ends at an area with a large cliff/cave. APPLY BUG SPRAY! There are lots of mosquitoes in this area.
Here you’ll get a short history of the location as well as some music/hula dancing.
You’ll head back to boat and return with more traditional ukulele music/hula dancing.
Wasn’t a fan of the music myself, but enjoyed the trip overall.
If you aren’t able to do a strenuous hike, wheelchair bound, or have small children this activity is short enough to get a taste of the scenery without the hassle of a rough walking trail.

We liked this as it filled our day paired with the luau! The staff here is very friendly and the local hawaiian songs were beautiful!

Lots in one morning, but the views are unbeatable!

The river cruise was great with the Tour guides giving us the history of the island and river along with local entertainment. the Fren Grotto was also excellent as it was Our 50th Anniversary and the Grotto topped it off... more.

I am satisfied with the guides' knowledge and humor. On the way back, the kayak was moving too fast and we returned earlier than planned. It would have been better if the guide had encouraged the participants to paddle m... moreore slowly and enjoy the river cruise at a leisurely pace.
Even an 8 year old girl was able to keep up well enough.

This was a pretty nice and easy way to spend an afternoon. It was quite warm but the breeze on the boat was lovely. We went with young kids and it was a nice time. Would recommend!
