First I have to say you MUST ask for JUAN as your guide. He is a native of Kauai. He is not only EXTREMELY knowlegeable of the Island, Juan has a great sense of humor, full of great stories retold to him by his grandfather, native histories, is a wealth of information. The Canyon is fasinating to see, as well as the Water Falls that we stopped along the way to witness. Juan told us local folk lore regarding the Sleeping Giant; Sprouting Horn.
Juan is WORTH THE TRIP in himself!

This was my first trip to the island of Kauai, and I must say I fell in love with the island. The people are much more relaxed than Honolulu, and the sceneries were just beautiful. Waimea Canyon was definitely the highlight of this trip, and I'm glad that I was able to see the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific". The breathtaking view of the art of the mother nature is worth every penny. The Wailua River Cruise was very nice, and the Smith family did such a wonderful job entertaining us on the boat and at the Fern Grotto. We thoroughly enjoyed their hospitality. This is definitely recommended if you are only staying on O'ahu, and want to see Kauai for a day.

Tour begins VERY early, 4:30am. That's NOT a problem, but we didn't take off until well after 7:30. Wasted time. Arriving in Maui, we had to wait another 45 min. for the next flight to arrive to join our group. By this time we had wasted several hours. The staff really did everything they could and were very nice, but I never like my time being of no value.
Our guide, Judy, was very nice, entertaining, & very knowledgeable. They do need to provide her with a hands-free microphone. I didn't care for her driving up & down the crater with one hand. The mini-bus was clean & comforatable, but noisy. The windows rattled really bad.
The first stop was boring and basically a shabby little road-side stand for us to buy over-priced snacks & stuff. They must get a kick-back for stopping there. More wasted time.
Haleakala was amazing. I loved Judy's insight & knowledge of all kinds of trivia. It is FREEZING up there. Bring a jacket or you will not want to get out of the mini-bus. The
