Nicknamed the “Garden Isle,” Kauai is the oldest of Hawaii’s main islands, giving it time to become the lush oasis it is today. On this tour, you’ll experience its western wonders, from the Grand Canyon of the Pacific—and the 800-foot Waipoo Falls—to the largest coffee orchard in the country. You’ll feed chickens, cross historic swinging bridges, taste local foods, and walk away understanding Hawaii’s greatest legends.
We will visit the largest orchard of coffee growers and roasters in the US. Sample about 5 varieties for free. Stroll through part of the orchard on a self guided tour, and learn all the stages of growing coffee from seed to cup. Do some shopping for Kauai grown coffee beans, and local souvenirs. You don’t like coffee? Enjoy a cold beverage or ice cream at their snack shop.
