Naturally, if you’re reading this, you’re preparing for (or dreaming of) a Kauai vacation. You can get tons of information by researching online, but nothing can prepare you for what you’ll find when you actually get to the Garden Isle! If you picture a slice of paradise that’s covered in green foliage, with beaches and coastline in every direction, you’re halfway there! Be sure to try to plan out some of your activities ahead of time (such as our Kauai zipline tours) so you won’t waste half your time trying to decide what you’re going to do when you get here.
You’ll arrive in Lihue at the island’s main airport – and coincidentally, our Kauai zipline facility is located just three minutes away – where you’ll begin the adventure of a lifetime. Of course you’ll want to book your accommodations prior to traveling to the island, and there are countless places to stay, regardless of your budget – from hotels and resorts to bed and breakfasts, condos, and even cabins, if you love a little seclusion.
You’ll probably want to rent a car so that you can tool around the island anytime you like, to take in all of the beauty, nature, culture, and activities. Another thing you’ll love about Kauai is that, just about anywhere you go by car, you’ll be driving along the coastline, as most roads are on the outer perimeter, other than a few that take you inland.
If you’re a seasoned hiker, you won’t want to miss the Koke’e State Park, where the elevation is about 4,000 ft. – spectacular views and great photo opportunities, even for those who don’t like to hoof it!
Magnificent waterfalls are abundant on Kauai, and of all the islands in Hawaii, this is the best one to take a helicopter tour of. From dining on local fare, shopping, entertainment, and surfing or snorkeling, to learning about local culture, to all kinds of activities for those who are active, it’s all here – and you’re going to love it.
Have you put our Kauai zipline tours on your list yet? Do it first, or save it for last. Either way you go, we think it will be the most exciting adventure you experience while vacationing in Kauai!
