Tour guide was very knowledgeable and did a good job of giving us information. We had plenty of time at the USS Arizona memorial. The city tour was good, but a little hard to see everything from the bus.

This was a great experience. Susan was very knowledgeable and made it fun. All the food was great and abundant. Would highly recommend to anyone staying on Kauai.

Jen was fabulous. We had a big group and she made sure all were included. We are very pleased with the photos!

Awesome! Great for kids! Self paced! Remember to bring snacks as there is no food available in the gardens.

It was a very nice tour. Tour bus was on-time, and bus driver was friendly and funny,
