A full day experience that was fun even when we were riding in the bus. Keoki made the trip fun and lots of interesting details along the way. Lunch was included and good quality. Swam in the waterfall, saw turtles, magnificent overlook. I highly recommend it.

I liked the less commercialized stops. Very informative Chico knew stories and was entertaining. He did a good job at keeping us moving but not rushed. Food at lunch was good and fun stop with lots to look at. Waterfall hike was very easy and the swimming was fun. Long day but very interesting things.

Our guide Kimo was amazing. He was so knowledgeable, friendly and a great stroy teller. He's a credit to the island and made our experience fantastic. The stops were brilliant and I would 100% recommend this tour. Just keep your fingers crossed you get Kimo.
