About Polynesian Adventure Tours - Kauai Highlights & Movie Sites (K3)
See Kauai's north and east side scenery with Polynesian Adventure Tours on a guided sightseeing tour featuring Hanalei, island lookouts and famous movie-site backdrops.
Follow Kauai's scenic roads through landscapes that have appeared on movie screens around the world. Lush valleys, tropical forests, historic towns and dramatic coastal views set the stage for a day filled with famous filming locations and some of the island's most memorable natural sights.
Visit the culturally significant Birthing Stones and Poli'ahu Heiau before continuing to Opaeka'a Falls, a 150-foot waterfall that cascades into a hidden pool below and appeared in films such as Blue Hawaii. Travel through Kapa'a Town, where the famous dinosaur "egg-change" scene from Jurassic Park took place, then stop at Lydgate Tasting Room for chocolate samples.
The journey continues to Kilauea Point Lighthouse Overlook at the northernmost tip of Kauai, a beautiful coastal setting featured in Lilo and Stitch. The day concludes in Hanalei Town, where you will have time for lunch and exploration on your own. Stroll past local shops and art galleries, visit Tahiti Nui, the filming location of The Descendants, and walk to Hanalei Beach to see the famous Hanalei Pier.
