Duke's Kayak Adventures

"My experience with the Duke's kayak and hiking tour in Kauai led by Hawaiian Brian was nothing short of amazing! From start to finish, Brian exuded professionalism, knowledge, and genuine passion for the island. Brian's charismatic personality immediately set the tone for the tour, making everyone feel comfortable and excited for the adventure ahead. Throughout the journey, he seamlessly blended education with entertainment, sharing fascinating insights about the island, its rich culture, language, and diverse fauna. What truly stood out was Brian's attention to detail and his willingness to go above and beyond to ensure everyone had a memorable experience. From capturing stunning photos at the waterfalls to making every stop informative and engaging, Brian's dedication to his craft was evident at every turn. I cannot recommend Hawaiian Brian enough for anyone looking to explore Kauai's beauty in a fun and informative way. Whether you're a seasoned adventurer or a first-time visitor, Brian's expertise and personable nature guarantee an unforgettable tour experience. Thank you, Brian, for an incredible day filled with adventure, laughter, and unforgettable memories! We will be back for sure!"

"We absolutely loved our kayak trip along the Wailua river and hike to Uluwehi Falls! Our tour guide Zack was great and we definitely appreciated all the info on the plants as well as the many jokes along the hike. The 4 miles of kayaking and 3mi hike was very doable for us. Definitely bring enough water and also shoes you feel comfortable crossing streams and tree roots with. Theres also a quick rock scramble that may not be suitable for everyone. This was quite an unforgettable experience. Would definitely recommend this trip for anyone who loves the outdoors and kayaking!"

"My husband and I along with our son and DIL did this amazing kayak/hike/waterfall tour at the 7am A MUST so you beat the crowds at the falls. It was literally a downpour deluge in some parts. I have to disclose that you need to be in decent condition to handle crossing a river over knee to thigh deep! AND being able to scale a 6ft tree root laded climb. The 45m kayaking part was beautiful! Once you reach shore you’re off trekking to the falls. Please wear GOOD water shoes like Tevas or Merrill’s you’ll also be navigating through uneven trails. Since it was rainy there’s a lot mud and large standing water, just go through them!! Parts of the trail have sturdy terrain planks that were placed during Covid *yay for those guys! Once at the falls take pics, enjoy your snacks and take it all it. Last but not least and HUGE mahalo nui to ANNIE!! Geez dis gurl was on it!! Super knowledgeable and a kick to talk story wit. You definitely want her to be your guide!!"

"From the moment we launched our kayaks to the serene waters of Kauai, it was clear this was going to be an extraordinary experience. Our tour guide Annie was an absolute gem - not only was she incredibly attentive, ensuring everyone felt safe and comfortable, but her sense of humor and infectious laugh added a layer of joy to our adventure. Her knowledge of the area was impressive; she was a treasure trove of stories, weaving fascinating tales about the history, flora, and fauna of Kauai that captivated us all. Her passion for the island and its natural beauty shone through, making the tour not just a journey through the waters, but also a journey through the heart of Kauai. Every moment was perfectly balanced between thrill and relaxation, laughter and learning. It's rare to find someone who can truly enhance the beauty of an already magnificent place with their presence and expertise, but our guide did just that. I cannot recommend this kayak tour enough - it's a must-do for anyone visiting Kauai. Thank you for an unforgettable day on the water!"

"We had such a great time kayaking and walking in the rain forest. Learned a lot about the island history. Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. She made sure we are all safe although it rained the entire trip. This was the best tour we did in a 10 days trip. Highly recommend you do this when you go to Kauai."
