Itinerary

Board a scenic four-wheel-drive vehicle and traverse the former Lihue Plantation lands into Kauaʻi's pristine emerald interior. Along the way, enjoy breathtaking vistas of Mt. Waiʻaleʻale and its spectacular waterfalls before arriving at your launch site.

Don your headlamp and grab a tube to float 2.5 miles of gently flowing open canals. Experience the magic of five hand-dug historic tunnels, each illuminated by your headlamp as you drift beneath the jungle canopy. This water system was engineered over a century ago and remained unused since sugar production ended in 2000—now it's exclusively yours to explore.

After your float, journey to an enchanted picnic area nestled in the landscape for a delicious lunch and time to relax. Cool off with a dip in a natural swimming hole before heading back to base.
