Itinerary

  • Spouting Horn

    Our adventure begins with a drive through the famous Poipu Tree Tunnel, followed by a visit to the beautiful Spouting Horn, an extinct lava tube that became a water geyser. Marvel at the power of nature as the waves crash on the shore and water rushes through the tube. Your guide will share the legend of the site, sound effects and all.

    30 minutes

  • Hanapepe

    Second in our agenda is a visit to the charming and historic Hanapepe town. Here you will have time to walk across the famous swinging bridge, built in 1912, enjoy some pastries at a local bakery, and visit some of the local art galleries and souvenir shops. For Disney lovers, this is the town of Lilo & Stich.

    1 hour

  • Waimea Canyon State Park

    Waimea Canyon State Park is one of Kauai's gems, known as the mini Grand Canyon of the Pacific. Here we will make 3 stops, including the main lookout at 3400 feet elevation. You will see the Canyon from various angles and also the Forbidden island of Niihau from afar. Many stories will be shared and fabulous pictures taken. Majestic beauty at its finest!

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • N/A

    Around 12:30-1 pm we will head to the beautiful grounds of the Waimea Plantation Cottages built in the early 1900's during the sugar plantation days. Overlooking at the blue Pacific Ocean and many tropical trees, we will enjoy delicious lunch at famous Chicken in a Barrel, with the largest beer wall on island. We will take a leisure stroll through the property to visit Waimea Bay, one of our few black sand beaches, and Captain Cook's first landing place in Hawaii.

    1 hour 15 minutes

  • Kauai Coffee Company

    After lunch, get ready to visit the magical world of coffee at the largest plantation in the USA, Kauai Coffee Co. Sample many roasts for free at the visitor center, take a stroll through the coffee tree garden, and shop for a wide selection of the freshest beans at their gift shop. Don’t like coffee?

Awesome day tour of Kawaii!!

Published on Jan, 2025

We thoroughly enjoyed the tour with mama Coco. She made the trip informative and fun!! All of her stops were great and we saw so much in one day. The van was clean, cool and comfortable. So much to learn and experience on this tour!! So happy we decided to do this!!

Small group bus tour of south & southwest including the canyon.

Published on Jan, 2025

It’s a great small group bus tour. Coco is very knowledgeable of the history & fantastic hostess. Also a fantastic lunch stop during our tour. We highly recommend it.

Unforgettable tour and cherished memories in Kauai

Published on Jan, 2025

Coco Maria from Kauai Soul Travel deserves recognition for the wonderful experience she provided to all of us. Excellent communication from the start, punctuality in picking us up in a very nice and super clean van, extremely well organized providing us with bathroom breaks, lunch and snack, and knowledgeable/entertaining information about the places we visited. But, above all, the friendliness and comradery we experienced during this tour thanks to her. A perfect recipe for an unforgettable experience in the gorgeous places we visited. Big hugs Coco from all of us!

Malaho to Coco!

Published on Jan, 2025

Coco made this the best excursion of the week. Even with the unpredictable weather, we did everything and more! The best part was taking a stop at Hanapepe, a treasured town where Lilo & Stitch took place. Coco was an excellent guide, very fun. knowledgeable, and hilarious. Wished I would have booked a second excursion with her, but if we ever return to Kauai, I will definitely book another excursion with her. A must for anyone who has never been to Kauai!!
