About Polynesian Adventure Tours - Kauai Highlights & Movie Sites (K3)
See Kauai through the lens of Hollywood on a guided tour that connects famous filming locations with some of the island's best-known scenery. The route travels through historic towns, lush valleys and coastal viewpoints while your guide shares stories about the movies and television shows filmed along the way.
Stops include the culturally significant Birthing Stones and Poli'ahu Heiau, followed by Opaeka'a Falls, a 150-foot waterfall seen in productions such as Blue Hawaii. Continue through Kapa'a Town, where scenes from Jurassic Park were filmed, then enjoy chocolate samples at Lydgate Tasting Room.
The tour also visits the Kilauea Point Lighthouse Overlook before continuing to Hanalei. You will have time to explore the town on your own, browse local shops and galleries, visit filming locations from The Descendants and walk toward Hanalei Beach and the famous pier.
