Descripción
Disfruta de un día repleto de belleza paisajística, leyendas e historia de la Isla Jardín. Viaje por el serpenteante y tranquilo río Wailua en un paseo en barco al aire libre que culminará en la exquisita gruta Fern, donde recibirá una serenata de la canción de boda hawaiana. Contempla la vasta extensión del cañón Waimea desde los miradores clave en el ascenso. Los acantilados de color rojo intenso fueron descritos por Mark Twain como el "Gran Cañón del Pacífico". Visite la extensa plantación de café Kauai y el pozo de soplado Spouting Horn, donde el agua del mar sale espectacularmente a través de las aberturas en la roca de lava.
Opciones de la excursión
Itinerario
Suba a bordo de un espacioso bote al aire libre y navegue por el río Wailua de Kauai rodeado de kilómetros de frondosos árboles y plantas tropicales. La brisa fresca lo arrulla mientras el capitán comparte historias del antiguo Hawái cuando el río estaba flanqueado por múltiples heiau (templos) hawaianos.
Tome un paseo en bote por el río Wailua hasta la famosa "Gruta de helechos", acertadamente llamada así por los helechos de Boston que gotean del techo de una caverna verde excavada en la ladera de la montaña.
Esta cascada de 151 pies de alto y 40 pies de ancho, que cae en cascada hacia una piscina oculta, es una de las cascadas principales más accesibles de la isla.
Disfrute del almuerzo por su cuenta en el casco antiguo histórico de Koloa, rodeado de su encantador ambiente.
Vistas panorámicas de las gargantas del valle profundo con su llamativo suelo rojo cubierto de vegetación... apodado el "Gran Cañón del Pacífico". Waimea Canyon Lookout permanecerá cerrado desde el 4/14/25 hasta aproximadamente el 12/8/25 para reparaciones de taludes y cimientos. Sustituiremos el mirador cerrado por una parada en Pu'uhinahina Lookout, que ofrece una vista diferente pero impresionante del cañón de Waimea. También haremos algunas paradas de fotos adicionales para dar a los huéspedes más tiempo para disfrutar del paisaje.
Vistas panorámicas de un valle cubierto de árboles y caña de azúcar verde silvestre. Hanapepe fue uno de los lugares visitados por el famoso explorador Charles Wilkes en 1840.
La finca de café más grande de los Estados Unidos, visite Kauai Coffee Estate y pruebe una rica taza del famoso café de Kauai.
Las olas rompientes impulsan majestuosos chorros de agua salada a través de la roca de lava. Uno de los sitios más fotografiados de Kauai.

Good day on the road with Johnna..She was engaging and entertaining. I was skeptical but this was a great tour of the island.
Good experience, it takes definitely all day but not for the time you'll spend at the places you'll be visiting but because the traveling time between locations. The boat experience was definitely enjoyable and the places for sightseeing were breathtaking definitely a must do, the convenience of someone taking care of the traveling is nice you can sit back relax even take a nap. They treat you with drinks and snacks is definitely a plus. While you travel they tell you stories about the places you'll visit, the ones passing by, give you recommendations to make more of your trip. We got a recommendation to visit a specific beach for wildlife sightseeing and was absolutely wonderful.
Best experience ever !! Thanks to John and Ken🫶🏻
Our Wailua River Cruise and Fern Grotto tour was one of the highlights of our visit to Kauaʻi! The boat ride along the beautiful Wailua River was peaceful, scenic, and filled with interesting stories about the island’s history and culture. The Fern Grotto itself is absolutely stunning and well worth the trip. What made the experience truly unforgettable was the entertainment on board. The musicians were talented, engaging, and created such a fun, authentic Hawaiian atmosphere. A special highlight was young Lala, the daughter of one of the entertainers, who performed a beautiful hula dance for everyone on the boat. She danced with such grace, joy, and confidence—it was heartwarming to watch and added a truly special touch to the experience. Mahalo to the wonderful crew for sharing the aloha spirit with us. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kauaʻi. It’s a perfect blend of natural beauty, Hawaiian culture, music, and hospitality!
Gives a holistic perspective of the diverse ecosystems of Kauai. The stops during the tour are excellent.
The guide makes all the difference. Ours was from Bolivia and was very hard to understand also through no fault of his own his microphone didn’t work. I was very surprised that there were no amenities such as water or umbrellas, giving the fact that this cost us over $500. I was also surprised that we had to pay for our own lunch given the cost of this trip. The boat ride to the Fern grotto was lovely with excellent entertainment in hindsight we should’ve just taken that trip for $35 apiece and not the rest of the excursion. Wasn’t worth it.
Mahalo for sharing your feedback and for joining us. We're glad you enjoyed the Fern Grotto experience. We appreciate your comments and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future.
You get to see alot without doing the driving. Highlight was the boat ride, which you can also do separately in your own. Issues were a lot of driving time between stops, which was too much for the kids under 10 in our group, and the guide didn't provide much information during the drive time, which ended up being for the best since no one could really hear him clearly over the speaker system, even after we asked if the sound could be turned up. It would have been better with a clear and more extensive description of the island and the places we were going and seeing.
It is a long day, but very enjoyable. The hosts are very knowledgeable and will answer all your questions.
This is a must see in the island! It is an absolutely magical, relaxing, beautiful river cruise! It is affordable for families or large groups. The scenery alone is worth the trip. The grotto is breathtaking. The live music on the boat makes it so relaxing and mesmerizing.
Had a great time with our guide, Sabrina. She was very knowledgeable, entertaining, and helpful for our day trip. We were able to see all the sights, plus a few more photo stops.
