Product Info

-What you can expect-
Ease into the friendly, laid-back character of the Garden Island as you explore North and East, and South and West Kauai.

The North and East region covers everything north of Lihue and the airport, including the towns of Kapa'a, Princeville and Hanalei. This is an area where you could easily spend a full day discovering beaches and natural highlights such as the well-known Wailua Falls. At Kilauea Lighthouse, the island's northernmost point, you'll enjoy wide coastal views in an area that also serves as a refuge for birds and marine life.

In the South and West region, the route includes Waimea Canyon and the Kalalau Lookout, alongside beaches and creative local communities. You'll also drive beneath a tunnel of around 500 trees that are over 100 years old, before stopping at Spouting Horn, the island's most famous blowhole.

Along the way, the audio guide shares stories that add depth to the landscape, including the little-known episode of how the Russians nearly came to rule Kauai. With different commentary for the outward and return journeys, the experience stays engaging throughout the tour.

  • The tour requires a supported mobile device for navigation: an iPhone running iOS 15 or later, an Android device running Android 9 or later, or an iPad/tablet with GPS and cellular service.

  • The tour is divided into 2 parts because there's no road to drive completely around Kauai Island. It's recommended to consider 5-8 hours for each section

  • The driving time without stops from Princeville to Waimea Canyon is about 2 hours, so expect to spend a full day out if starting in the north part of the island
