Our guide was Steve and he was very personable and knowledgeable. We really enjoyed all the sights and it was very helpful for us to decide what places we would go back to later to spend more time.

Our guide was Domi, an excellent, very professional, and very personable individual . The entire day was filled with learning about Hawaiian history, language and culture. Add to that all the laughter in the van from his own remenices’. I would never return to Kauai without taking this tour again. Domi is an outstanding tour guide, and a great representative and face for the company. We thourghly enjoyed the experience.
