Napali Kayak Tours 5-5075 Kuhio Highway, Hanalei, HI 96714

"The only complaint I have about this trip is that I missed my window on my trip to do it again. This was truly the trip of a lifetime and I will come back to Kauai just to paddle it again. First, the guides. The guides were amazing - informative, helpful, encouraging, and real. They made the whole trip! Sadie was so great. She was knowledgeable about Hawaii and I loved the info about each location, but best of all, she sand us Hawaiian songs and played the flute in the sea caves - want an incredible experience! I hope she does that for everyone, on every trip, forever, moving forward. Mitch, our other guide, was a great, supportive and educational guide who made me feel less concerned about how hard the paddle was and was really, really, real. Appreciated him so much! Now, the trip. The trip itself was epic. Truly, Napali and the beaches there may have ruined beaches for me for the rest of my life. The caves, the scenery, the water - nothing like it. But, this paddle is HARD. Make no mistake, there were times I legitimately thought I could not finish it, and we paddled on a calmer day. But I still wanted to do it again on the same trip, because it was that good. Everyone should do this kayak trip. Trip of a lifetime, for real. Do yourself a favor and take this trip."

"Amazing amazing kayak tour with a great guide company! We were the first boat tour out on the water this year and our guides Annie, Mitch and Mason made sure we had the best time! Super engaging. We felt safe and cared for the entire time, even though it was a windy day — rain, sun, rainbows, wind — we had it all. Long but super fun day of paddling in one of the most gorgeous places on earth. We got to go in a cave, the guides explained Hawaiian history and animal facts to us. Annie risked her phone and took some wonderful photos of us. Definitely worth doing!"

"Paddled 17 miles along the Na Pali coast with the man, Brian! The trip was amazing from start to finish. The safety briefings and instructions were extremely thorough. The shuttle van was clean, and the ride was quick. The 17-mile paddle itself was physically tough but not overly-taxing; considering that the entire ride you have a front-seat view of the Na pali coast with crystal-clear, warm water and beautiful Kauai weather. Our tour guide Brian went above and beyond. He shared his wealth of knowledge of Hawaiian history, geography, culture, and everything about the island. He was mindful of the groups' needs, stopping often for photo opportunities and water/snack breaks. DON'T BE SCARED BY THE DISTANCE, YOU CAN DO IT."

"17 Miles along the Napali coast was an adventure of a lifetime!!! This was no easy paddle, prepare to work hard and be as tired as you ever have! But it is so worth it!! Such a beautiful and cool experience I'd do it again any day!! Worth every penny to paddle yourself into sea caves and along a spectacular coast line! Bring lots of snacks that can be accessible to you while kayaking. Eat a good hearty breakfast and bring lots of water!! Reef safe sunscreen is a MUST!! I also recommend long sleeve swim shirts and hats!! You will get ALOT of sun!! Bring your own dry bag if you can, they have them if not, and bring 2 towels- one for after and one for lunch time. I put my towel in the after bag, but I wish I had one while on the tour for lunch time break to lay out and take a nap on."
