Polynesian Adventure Tours – Waimea Canyon & Wailua River Tour (K1)

Spend the day seeing several of Kauai's best-known landmarks without having to handle the driving yourself. The tour combines the dramatic scenery of Waimea Canyon with waterfalls, historic towns and a relaxing Wailua River cruise to Fern Grotto.

The morning includes stops at Waimea Canyon, Hanapepe Valley Lookout, Spouting Horn and Opaeka'a Falls. You will also have time in Old Koloa Town to explore the historic streets and purchase lunch on your own.
