John was great! He picked us up at the meeting location and away we went. We saw a lot of Kauai and Waimea Canyon, some low key points and some high profile as well. John was very knowledgeable on the stops and the island. He really took good care of our group. He even took us to and from dinner after the tour had ended. I highly recommend using John and his company. Thank you, Michael.
Thank you, Michael for your excellent review and compliments! We are delighted that your group had a memorable day on Kauai with John. We appreciate the opportunity to be a part of your Hawaiian cruise vacation. Best wishes & Aloha :)
We had a great time learning all about Kauai from John on our canyon tour. We started our day being picked up from our hotel in Poipu and checking out Poipu beach where we saw a monk seal coming on shore for his day of basking in the sun. We then ventured out to the Kauai Coffee Company where we were able to taste a bunch of coffees that are made on the island. After the coffee pick-us-up, we travelled through a couple of small towns before heading up to the Waimea Canyon. Words do not do justice for the incredible scenery that we were able to experience. From a old canal waterfall running through the red Mars-like dirt, to overlooking the ocean from the very top of the Kalalau Lookout, the views were stunning! After the canyon, we headed back to Waimea and had lunch at Island Taco (HIGHLY recommend). We stopped at a tiny little town of artists and Lilo and Stitch where we walked across a very old suspension bridge. Our final two stops along the way were at the spouting horn and back near our hotel where we watched sea turtles playing in the surf! It was a great day all the way around. John was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and we highly recommend this as a way to start your vacation in Kauai!

Our day was about 8 hrs long but filed with sightseeing, lunch and time for shopping. John , our tour guide, was very experienced and explained everything we were seeing and giving a great history lesson. He was very friendly and concerned with how we were doing at all times. I would highly recommend this tour company!
Mahalo Diane for your kind words and recommendations! It was a great pleasure having you and Lisa as our guests. Hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay on Kauai. Best wishes & Aloha :)
We had a great experience on our private Waimea Canyon tour. Our guide, John, was friendly, professional, and made sure the day moved at an easy, enjoyable pace. He took us to several incredible viewpoints and a few off-the-beaten-path stops that we never would have found on our own. He offered to take photos for us throughout the day and captured some really nice shots of the two of us together. He also brought along drinks and snacks and was thoughtful about making sure we had everything we needed along the way. It was a comfortable, scenic, and well-paced way to see some of the best parts of Kauai. Highly recommend this tour if you want to explore the canyon and surrounding areas without feeling rushed.
Much Mahalo Traci for your fabulous review and recommendations! We are so happy you and Michael had a memorable experience exploring Kauai with John. Enjoy the rest of your stay in sunny Poipu! Best wishes & Aloha :)
Comprehensive private tour with a local knowledgeable & very personable local guide. I highly recommend him.
Mahalo Richard for your great review and recommendations! Jon enjoys sharing his knowledge and Aloha with our guests. Wishing you many more fun and interesting travels! Aloha : )
John was an amazing guide!!! He was so easy to get along with and very friendly. He took us to the best places to view the Canyon. The canyon is incredible!! It’s huge and so many different colors and textures to the canyon. He gave us so much information about the canyon and the island. We loved it. His vehicle was comfortable and clean. He had a whole box of snacks for us to choose from and a cooler with the perfect drinks and plenty of bottled water. We were able to see a Hawaiian seal that was napping for the day on a beach and a sea turtle sleeping on the beach. We also stopped at amazing lookouts. John took us to see a great blowhole that makes the coolest noises because there are two holes. John took our pictures when we wanted them. We couldn’t have asked for a better private tour. We booked for four people but we needed up just two of us. John was ready with anything we needed.
Big Mahalo Patricia for your amazing review and compliments! You are absolutely right, Waimea Canyon is a true geological wonder with magnificent scenery. We are so happy that you and Bill had a memorable experience exploring Kauai with us. Hope you enjoyed the rest of your cruise! Warmest Aloha & Best wishes :)
John was our tour guide and was truly excellent. Saw everything including sea turtle and monk seal, waterfalls and spouting horn (all seasonal, we traveled in Sept). He was extremely knowledgeable about Kauai and Hawaiian islands history. Absolutely perfect last day of our trip!
Mahalo Leigh for your lovely review! It's always a treat to see the endangered Hawaiian monk seals and Hawaiian green sea turtles on our tours. We are so happy you and Ryan enjoyed this day with John! Best wishes & Aloha : )
