My husband and I plan a lot of our travel around hiking - not super technical but challenging and we've learned it often pays to secure the services of a reputable local guide and we've hiked Kauai before and learned once you are off the NaPali coast trail the thick undergrowth and slippery clay inclines with very sudden and steep...

If you have been to Kauai as many times as I have, you might think you know it all! I was both skeptical and curious when my dear friend suggested we take a hike with Kauai Hiking Adventures and I am so glad I took the chance. Scott's enthusiasm and commitment to Kauai's people, his professionalism, his great driving and... More

In an effort do to some more adventurous things on our vacation, I contacted Scott at Kauai Hiking Adventures about scheduling a hike for my family while we were there. Scott was quick to get back to me and very informative on what to expect and ideas on where to go. Based on our e-mails, I booked a hike. It... More

A friend and I did a one day hike with Dave to a waterfall off the Napali coast (not the owner of the company). It was a great time and he tailored the hike to go to a place that had the characteristics we wanted. Dave is not a botanist, but he did have lots of inside information about the... More

We booked a hike to Makahela Falls through Scott but actually went with Danny Hashimoto. The net is that this is a whole day adventure through a jungle rain forest deep into the Makahela Mountains in central Kauai. Reaching the falls takes over 3 hours, and the entire trip with swimming along the way was 8 hours, although Danny really... More

Scott, who runs Kauai Hiking Adventures, answered my call the night before and was super friendly on the phone. Scott outsources with other expert guides in the event he is booked himself, which was my case. Within an hour, Scott hooked me up with an amazing adventure guide for the next day, emailing me a thorough confirmation with a picture... More

Hands down the best experience of our trip. My girlfriend and I traveled to Kauai in January 2011 and happened to stumble on the Kauai Hiking Adventures webpage by chance. We booked a hike the very first morning with Scott and within 30 mins, we knew we would be booking another hike with Scott, during our trip. On our first... More

We were recommended Kauai Hiking Adventures by a guide on another island. They didn't dissapoint. Danny listened to our interests and adjusted plans on the fly to give us the best adventure. We did two hikes over about 8 hours and saw some amazing country. The best parts were the wealth of information and the homemade chocolate. Thanks! More

Scott from Kauai Hiking Adventures is awesome! My boyfriend and I wanted to hike to the back wall of Mt. Waialeale in July 2011, but knew we'd need an expert guide. Several blogs mentioned Scott as the best guide for this type of challenging hike so we contacted him. He called in response to our e-mail inquiry and he was... More
