    I went to Kauai for a vacation a couple years ago and it was one of the best trips I’ve ever been on! It’s a small island and not very popular so you won’t see a million tourists everywhere. The people there are so nice and I went on a helicopter tour which went around the whole island because it was that small! It’s a great island if you love being in the outdoors and taking hikes. Also, the beaches are stunning! I would 100% go back.

    It's awesome! Totally worth it. Re safety gear: you do want the helmet because 1) the light and 2) you might bonk your head in the tunnels. The water flows pretty fast and you are bounced around a good bit in certain parts. Call Kauai Backcountry the staff is great!

      I went to Kauai a week prior to when I wrote to when I wrote this, the tour guide actually said they used to not have any helmets before, and they had to get helmets because people actually hurt their heads in the tunnels and outside too.

    • @bp51082
      @bp51082 3 роки тому

      The water is shallow enough that vests aren't really an issue. Very possible to bump your head though, particularly in the tunnels and in fact did a couple of times. But was no issue with the helmet on

    You should go rafting in the Alpes mountains. It is way more thrilling, though it can be a little different per company. I rafted on an actual mountain river with cliffs on both sides and giant rocks in the water. We had to paddel (6 tourists and an instructor per boat) forward and backward according to commando's by the instructor and we went of some waterfalls. There were some kayakers with us in case anyone would fall of and they did a lot of tricks like spinning around, going upside down and going of waterslides and -falls created by all the rocks.
    It was definetely the best thing in the whole vacation.

    Just a heads up for those who seek to do this:
    There is a weight limit. 320 is what they're drawing the warning line at. And it's 320 and wide, 320 and tall is acceptable.... At least that's what they told me as I came in, I was the biggest dude in our pack.
    Secondly:
    Why cry about non-direct flights? Only so many cities service directly to Lihue, like Houston, Seattle, LA.... Heck, even the Bay Area airports service directly to Lihue.
