Fun and interesting hike and waterfall swim.

Reviewed by: Scott B, 2023/08/16

Our guide, Patrick, did a great job making this interesting and fun. Learned a lot about Kauai plants, land, water, and history! The bamboo forest and waterfall were amazing. Going under and behind the waterfall was an experience to remember.

Waterfall Hike/Swim

Reviewed by: Ted and Angela, 2022/08/27

What a fabulous time we had. The hike consists of a fairly steep but mild trek downhill with a highly knowledgeable and friendly guide pointing out the various types of foliage you are hiking through. You descend to two very beautiful waterfalls, the 2nd of which is around 60 feet cascading into a small swimmable pond. We saw a few prawns as well as fish there. We were given the choice of hiking back the same way we came in or to go back a shorter, more intense hike back up. We chose the more intense option and it was still very "doable" and enjoyable. I just wish I could remember our guides name, he was truly outstanding (I am just horrible with names tho, sorry).

Hike to private waterfall

Reviewed by: Loni R. , 2022/08/19

We were really pleased with the waterfall hike and our tour guide, Katie. She got us hooked up with good footwear ($10 each to rent, which is definitely worth it). The hike itself was short but sweet, and we learned a lot about local plants and animals. Katie found some white Hawaiian ginger and showed us how to suck nectar from the roots and demonstrated how one might make paper using the papyrus growing by the water.

The waterfalls were gorgeous and very private. We were a small group of about 8 and we saw no one else. The second waterfall, the one you swim in, was wonderful. The water was cool but refreshing and Katie guided us all (even younger kids) as we climbed up to walk behind it.

After the swim you do have a few minutes of pretty steep climbing, but the shoes and the guard ropes really help and no one had any issues (aside from being a tad winded).

I highly recommend this tour and will absolutely do it again.

The hike was definitely amazing our tour guy Lou was awesome.
We actually ended up going to the wrong location and they were great enough to give us a ride to the actual spot and they even gave us a ride back

Great experience!

Reviewed by: Ben, 2021/08/28

Great time! Waterfall, the hike, the tour guide were all great.

Highly recommend water shoes. We bought them last minute and they helped tremendously.

Also, your shoes on the hike will get muddy.

Not the easiest of places to find. Make sure to give yourself plenty of time.

Amazing Expierence!!!!

Reviewed by: Danielle Cook, 2020/02/22

This hike was wonderful! The waterfalls were so great! It was amazing to walk through all the different vegetation and see the gorgeous flowers and water falls. We had 2 guides that knew so much about the area and were very fun to hike with! We had a couple of asthmatics that did the hike as well so it is a great hike for everyone!

Had a blast

Vulker our guide was so nice. We were in a smaller group and were able to walk behind the waterfall for a truly unique experience. I highly recommend.
