Ultimativ selvguidet lydkørselstur i Kauai (Na Pali, Waimea), Hawaii
Beskrivelse
Anbefalet: Køb en tur pr. bil, ikke pr. person. Alle lytter sammen! Spænd dig op for et tropisk eventyr, du aldrig vil glemme! Cruise gennem frodige jungler, gå langs uberørte strande, og dykke ned i historien om den smukke ø Kauai. Lær om kulturen og hvordan alting ændrede sig, da sukkerplantagerne ankom. Har du hørt om sammenstød mellem kulturer og... en mislykket russisk invasion? Nej, virkelig! Efter booking skal du kontrollere din e-mail/tekst for at downloade den separate Audio Tour Guide App by Action, mens du er forbundet til WiFi eller mobil data. Indtast adgangskoden, download turen og nyd den offline. Følg lydvejledningen og rute fra det udpegede startpunkt. Ny, livslang adgang, ingen udløb. Brug det når som helst, på enhver tur, så mange gange som du vil. Det er ikke en indgangsbillet. Tjek åbningstider før dit besøg.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Forbered dig på en tur gennem paradiset! Denne tur tager dig gennem alle de smukkeste, mest spændende dele af Kauai. Oplev det bedste denne ø har at tilbyde fra komforten af din bil eller en leje. Bemærk: Turen er over 35 + miles lang, med mere end 60 + lyd historier, og tager omkring 2 - 3 timer at fuldføre. Ny, livslang adgang, ingen udløb. Brug det når som helst, på enhver tur, så mange gange som du vil.
Dit første stop er Kalapaki, hjemsted for en uberørt hvid strand og noget umuligt roligt vand takket være en havmur, der holder bølgerne på afstand.
Få en portion hawaiiansk historie på Sugarcane & Grove Farm, hvor du vil lære om, hvordan denne pengeafgrøde for altid ændrede forløbet for Hawaiis fremtid.
Du behøver ikke vente længe for at opleve noget af Kauai's karakteristiske jungle skønhed. "Trætunnelen" er en kilometerlang tunnel af eukalyptustræer, som giver anledning til en seriøs malerisk kørsel.
Få et indblik i fortiden i Old Koloa Town, en malerisk lille landsby, der går tilbage til sukkerplantagernes dage.
De, der håber at lære mere om Hawaiis sukkerhistorie, kan tage en omvej til en gammel sukkermølle ved siden af.
Hvorfor nøjes med én strand, når du kan have to på ét sted? Poipu Beach består af to sandede halvmåner, der danner en dobbeltstrand, og er et perfekt sted til svømning, snorkling og meget mere.
Fortsætter du, når du Hanapepe Valley Lookout. Glem ikke at medbringe et kamera, når du tjekker disse enestående udsigter!
I byen Hanapepe støder du på Hanapepe Swinging Bridge. Denne sjove attraktion kan virke ustabil, når vejret bliver blæsende, men bare rolig, det er faktisk meningen, at den skal svaje lige så meget, som den gør!
Dernæst er et virkelig mærkeligt historisk vartegn: et russisk fort tilbage fra et mislykket invasionsforsøg! Lær historien bag det at kende, mens du udforsker dette ejendommelige stykke historie.
Du vil derefter passere Niihau, også kendt som Den Forbudte Ø. Denne privatejede ø har været forbudt for besøgende i generationer.
Din rute tager dig næste gang forbi en usædvanlig attraktion, Red Dirt Waterfall. Dette vandfald er præcis, hvad det lyder som; den får sin røde farve fra en høj koncentration af jern i jorden.
Kukui Trail, dernæst, er en fantastisk mulighed for erfarne vandrere, mens dem, der leder efter en lettere vandring, vil elske Iliau Nature Loop. Begge er gode måder at blive bedre bekendt med Kauai's smukke natur.
Din rute fører ved siden af den såkaldte "Grand Canyon of the Pacific": Waimea Canyon. Hvis noget på denne tur er et absolut must-see, så er det dette. Du vil virkelig ikke tro dine egne øjne!
For det bedste kig på Waimea Canyon, fortsæt til Pu'u Hinahina Lookout. Her har du chancen for at tage nogle billeder, der med garanti vil gøre dine venner jaloux!
Hvis du rent faktisk vil vandre ind i selve kløften, kommer du ved siden af Waimea Canyon Trails, der tilbyder utrolige vandreture for alle oplevelsesniveauer - samt masser af ekstra udsigtspunkter!
Vil du have nogle souvenirs og lidt ekstra uddannelse? Tjek Koke'e Natural History Museum, et gratis museum dedikeret til øens flora og fauna.
Næste er Koke'e State Park, et vigtigt stop, hvis du ikke har fået nok af at vandre og lugte vilde blomster.
En af de sidste udkigssteder på din tur er Kalalau Lookout, der tilbyder en spektakulær udsigt fra det højeste punkt, der er tilgængeligt ad vej på hele øen.
Dernæst er Na Pali Coast State Wilderness Park, der byder på dramatiske bluffs og brusende bølger. Det er ikke underligt, at Hollywood har brugt dette som optagelsessted mere end én gang, inklusive til en af Jurassic Park-filmene!
Endelig kommer du til en sidste udsigt: Pu'u O Kila Lookout. Turen slutter ved denne fantastiske udsigt.

Not very user friendly. Once you get it figured out though it is a nice way to experience the island with some insight and backstories.

We purchased the tour that took us through Poipu and Kaloa area. We had 4 hours to fill and this was absolutely perfect! We loved the places they guided us to, the history and information behind the sites and the stories shared between locations. It was great to be able to go at our own pace and go back and listen to it again if we wanted to. The GPS guide was perfect. Great way to get to know the island and some of its history! Would totally do it again!

It is great once you’re able to figure out how to use it! We really enjoyed it how we it took almost an hour to figure it out- make sure you download it and get it working before you leave your WiFi.

This download app worked well for our purposes. Be sure to begin at the starting point. You cannot start in the middle of the tour. Also, you have to check your driving speed so the narrator does not cut off before he is finished talking. Two programs downloaded, but I could only figure out how to use one. The narrator was interesting with good stories, sidelines, facts and island history. It was just the right length. We really enjoyed it !!
Diane, I’m really happy to hear that my Self-Guided Audio Driving Tour of Kauai worked well for your trip and that you enjoyed the stories, facts, and island history along the way. It’s wonderful that the narration felt just right in length and helped make the drive relaxing and insightful. I also appreciate you mentioning the setup and starting point. My tour is designed to begin at the recommended starting location so the narration flows in the correct order, and once you’re on the route, the GPS audio should play automatically as you drive.

Tour was good, very informative. Was a little painful to start is Lihue only, when we were staying in Princeville. Would have been nice to have an option to start the tour in Princeville. Waimea Canyon and the park were fabulous, and the tour did a good job of directing us thru it. A few things could be updated on the tour, but overall, we loved it. Never would have found the secret beach! Never would have gone to Hanalei either.
Susan, thank you for your thoughtful review. I’m so glad my Ultimate Self-Guided Audio Driving Tour of Kauai helped you discover places like Secret Beach and Hanalei. I also appreciate your feedback about the Lihue starting point and the updates needed. If you’re open to sharing more, I’d love to know which directions, stops, or details felt awkward or outdated so I can pass that along to my team and keep improving the tour.
