Half Day Rainforest 4X4 & Hiking

Four Wheel Drive and Hiking Adventure - Journey to the Heart of Kauai

Join us for an exciting tour you will long remember. Mt. Waialeale, at the center of Kauai, is the wettest place on earth.

This half day adventure combines four wheel drive access and hiking to give you an unparalleled experience. From convenient departure locations, our expert guides will lead you to the heart of Kauai. Heading inland from Wailua on Kuamoo Road (580) past Opaekaa Falls and the Wailua Reservoir to the Keahua Arboretum. From the Arboretum, fasten your seat belts because we are going on a bumpy ride, further into the heart of Kauai. The trail crosses streams and winds through the dense forest to the, "Gate", used in Jurassic Park. We will park at the gate and have an easy half hour stroll past wild flowers and gorgeous vistas to the source, where water is diverted into the irrigation system of Lihue Plantation.

This is a great opportunity to learn about the history and culture of Hawaii from experienced guides in a breathtaking natural environment. The weather can be unpredictable and heavy rain will be cause for cancellation. A little rain is no problem as umbrellas, ponchos and walking sticks are provided, as well as back packs, snacks and beverages. (no rain, no rainbows)

There is a total of about 3 miles of walking involved in this tour. The trail is not difficult but between the bumpy roads and the walking, this tour is not recommended for people with neck or back problems, people prone to motion sickness or who are not at least moderately fit.
