Kauai
Well organized, the guides were great, kind, and fun! It's ok to take your personal stuff, they put everything in a plastic tub and it's in employee hands at all times. Gloves and helmets were clean and in good condition. Bathrooms and changing rooms at the warehouse and porta available at the picnic spot, they offer sanitizer.
Wear a rash guard top and sturdy water shoes.
Super fun for all ages! Our guide, Noah, was great and entertaining the whole trip.
The red dirt will stain so dress accordingly
Riding the tubes down the canal was fantastic. The guides made the trip much more fun and enjoyable.
We had a great time with Kauai Mountain Tubing Adventure. Brice, our main guide, was very experienced, safety conscious and fun. He was born and raised on Kauai so get his recommendations on things to do on the island.
The tubing in the canal and tunnels was great and another guide, Cameron, made it fun, too.
There was a wonderful lunch provided after the tubing. I highly recommend this excursion.
Highly recommend. We had a fantastic time! A highlight for sure
Our tour guide Barkley was amazing! The whole family had a great time. The guides were so funny and knowledgeable. This is a MUST DO if you’re in Kauai!
Such a fun day. Had an amazing time on the river and the hike was beautiful. Harrison was a great guide. Super knowledgeable and helpful. Would do it again in a heartbeat.
Aloha Mike,
Sharing is caring and we do care that folks are not only enjoying being out doors but also our guides, who we hope help enjoy the experience.

Stay well and active…and exploring. It's a beautiful planet.

Our guides were awesome and the water refreshing! 😆 Would recommend this float to all, especially non swimmers. Mostly gentle with a lot of fun.
Traveling through the tunnels was a lot of fun and our guide Megan was very informative about the plantation history.
Our tour at Kipu Ranch in Kauai was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, the experience was filled with breathtaking scenery, exciting trails, and the kind of adventure you only dream about when you picture Hawaii. 🌴✨
The guides were incredible—knowledgeable, funny, and made us feel safe the whole way while still letting us enjoy the thrill of the ride. We explored lush valleys, rugged hillsides, and even movie-worthy backdrops that took our breath away. 🚙💨 Everywhere we turned was like stepping into a postcard.
What really stood out was how much we learned along the way—about Kauai’s history, the culture, and the land itself. It wasn’t just an adrenaline rush; it was a deeper connection to the island.
If you’re visiting Kauai, don’t miss this adventure. Whether you’re here for the views, the excitement, or just want to experience the island in a unique way, Kipu Ranch delivers it all. Highly recommend—it was truly the highlight of our trip! 🌺🌊🌈
Definately wear dark clothing since all that red dirt will be EVERYWHERE!!
This excursion was good fun for even us 66-70 year olds gals. Loved Sophia our leader with her historic references and information. The tubing had both relaxed but quick moving parts along with tunnels where it’s a bit like twirling bumper cars. Lots of laughing along the way. Depth is approximately 3-4 feet deep. The guides stayed with us and quickly fixed any bottle neck problems. Will do this again next with my husband and daughter.
Recommend wearing long sleeve “rash” guard type water shirt and swim shorts for comfort.
We had a wonderful experience with our adult children on this tubing adventure and are planning a second trip with some friends. It's an easy and enjoyable experience that's different from other tubing adventures. We highly recommend it.
Perfect weather and a great crew led by Seth make it a very fun, unique experience on Kauai. The water had spins and sloshes as we cascaded down the mountain. The tunnels and the history was interesting.
Would highly recommend for everyone - young, old, and in between.
My husband and I did this tour last week for our honeymoon and had an incredible time. Our hosts were Jason, Caden and Zara (aka Jason, Jason, and Jason lol) and they were all excellent. They definitely deserve raises! :) We were highly impressed by how well structured the tour was, from the very beginning and how safety was their top priority (my husband is a safety manager and took notice). We can't wait to return in the future!
We had such a great time, tour guides were sweet. Coady was great!!
A very fun adventure. Beautiful kayak trip on the Wailua River. The river was very calm and both ways were fairly easy to traverse. A little bit of wind on the way back made it a tiny bit more difficult but not much. The hike was fun. The last part gets a bit technical due to large wet rocks and such and being a bit older slowed us down some especially on the way back. Our guide, Harrison, was fantastic and helped us through the short area that was really difficult. The falls are majestic and I feel so lucky to have been there. It was a great day!
You will be very wet. Bring extra clothes.
Aloha Great Day,
Glad to hear that Harrison helped you have yet another Great Day on our Wailua River paddle and hike to the falls.
Thank you for warning folks that the road to paradise can be strewn with some wet rocks and some contrary winds, which is doable by most.
Keep reaching and searching for waterfalls and we are please do have helped you have another great day.

We secured our summer spots for this excursion way ahead, and so glad we did as it booked out quick, and was definitely our favorite excursion done on Kauai!
Unique and refreshing experience like no other that I have experienced!
The tunnels were the best part with some being completely pitch dark with headlamps doing the work!
Matt and Nan were excellent guides. They were personable and entertaining. 5 stars.
The guide team was awesome. Great views. Awesome experience!
Book it today!
Well organized experience. Our guides were knowledgeable and entertaining. M-taps (if I got the nickname right) was outstanding. He made the experience even better with his singing and stories.
Don’t change a thing.
Better instructions needed for pickup at the Point at Poipu. Pickup is at the entrance to the property. Buses do not enter the property. Current instructions state pickup is out front. Of the main entrance to the building??
Aloha and mahalo nui loa for your kind words!
We're so happy to hear you had a memorable time exploring the beauty of Kaua‘i with Polynesian Adventure. We also appreciate your comments regarding the pickup experience — your feedback is valuable, and we've shared it with our team to help us improve.
We look forward to welcoming you both back for another unforgettable island adventure!
With warm aloha,

This excursion is a must do. The views were incredible. It does take time to get there, 2 mile row in after which you hike for about 1.25 miles to the falls. The guide told us some great facts about the area. They teach you how to paddle if you have never done that before. You do have to cross the river and depending on the rainfall, it can be deep. This is mildly strenuous, you will be walking on uneven ground with rocks and cross a river, good water/hiking shoes a must. You will need to help carry the kayaks to the water and back, not very long and there are usually 4 people to a kayak to carry. Part of the trail does have wood planks to walk on, but the first part of the trail does not. It was beautiful and the falls were full when we got to the top, not always the case, depends on the amount of rainfall they have had. Highly recommend.
Get the walking sticks, very helpful when crossing the river and hiking the trail.
Aloha Sumsiontk,
What a nice and informative review that gives folks a real idea of what is involved in the paddle and hike to the Sacred/Secret Falls.
Your review made we want to revisit, yet once again.
The guid is there to maximize your time, keep it safe and fun and leaving you with some "some pearls of wisdom".
Thanks for recommending us and hope to see you back.

This was one of the best excursions we did while visiting Kauai. We highly recommend this!!! The scenery was an amazing, the stories of the area, and the wonderful guides we had. The guides took their time in explaining things and making sure we were safe and felt comfortable on the trails. The stories were fantastic and there was plenty of time and view the sights and take pictures. This is a must do and we can’t wait to go again when we are in Kauai!!
Expect to have fun.
The scenery was beautiful. The guide was awesome. I highly recommend this.
Aloha Sunny,
Our guides are just icing on the cake that compliments some terrific scenery and generally some great clientele.
Thanks for the 5 stars and hope to see you back.

Most unique and memorable experiences we had during our time on Kauai! From start to finish
Not only do you get mountain tubing, you get a little forest AWD ride beforehand that is incredible on its own. This is well worth it in so many ways!
The staff were all fun. It was a fun and refreshing mild adventure. The food was much better than expected. Just sandwiches but on soft, buttery croissants with really fresh cheese and veggie condiments. The pictures are very pricey so we skipped them. Enjoy!
We had a great time on the Mountain Tubing adventure. Our guide Uso was fun, knowledgeable about the area/history and very professional. Definitely recommend this experience!
