This tour captures the very best of Kauai from the famous "Grand Canyon of the Pacific", to an actual trip up the Wailua River with a visit to the Fern Grotto where you will hear a memorable rendition of "The Hawaiian Wedding Song". Tours are conducted on comfortable air-conditioned mini-buses by friendly, knowledgeable guides. (A sweater and comfortable walking shoes are recommended.)
