Kanoe and the rest of the team were amazing: Very enthusiastic, very funny, and very informative! Plantation tubing is an experience I would definitely recommend to anyone who's visiting Kaua`i. Thank you so much for making our vacation trip so memorable!

Great experience
Reviewed by: wallatom, 2024/02/11
We were reassured that the tour would be a "go" even though rain was threatening. The group was a bit hesitant but the trip went without a hitch, even when the skies opened up and we got dumped on. The tubing portion was great and a lot of fun for all. Kiersten was a great lead guide, and her team made sure that everyone was safe. Lunch was good, but dampened by the downpour. Overall, I believe that everyone in the group had a wonderful time. We highly recommend this adventure. Special kudos to Kiersten.

Bubu’s Amazing Tour
Reviewed by: Alexis, 2023/09/17
We booked the Tubing Tour as a part of our honeymoon, and had an amazing time. Our tour guide was Bubu, and she was knowledgeable and helpful about the history of Kaua’i as well as giving us helpful suggestions on where to go while we were here. The tour itself started with a bus ride through the Kaua’i scenery while Bubu entertained us with interesting facts and stories.

I did a lot of excursions on Kauai, and this is in my top 2
Reviewed by: BKST, 2023/09/17
I probably experienced this excursion in the one of the worst ways possible: it was overcast and rainy, it had torrential downpoured right when we arrived at the canal, I was just wearing a one-piece bathing suit (no shorts or sleeves), I'm a freeze baby, the tour guide wasn't too friendly (probably because he was called into work last minute), but despite all those things, I TRULY LOVE AND HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ACTIVITY! I was really nervous I would be cold, but I was comfortable the whole time. Just my butt touched the water unless my husband splashed me lol. The downpour didn't last long either and the majority of the ride was under tunnels. The ride was so much fun. Our tubes sort of acted like bumper cars as the water pushed us this a way and that a way. Not only was it a fun ride, the number 1 reason why I love this activity is because it isn't just a lazy river or crazy river manmade for the purpose of tourism. The canal and tunnels were made in the late 1800s for the sugar cane plantations (now defunct). (Tunnels are checked every year ensuring safe operation!) I think it is a great way to optimize a resource that no longer has its original purpose. Of the paid excursions I did in Kauai (boat tour, helicopter tour, hula show, spiderman/superman ziplining), this mountain tubing excursion is in my TOP 2 MUST DOs.

SOOOO FUN
Reviewed by: K.A., 2023/08/25
Tubing was our favorite adventure. the drive out there was beautiful and our guide shared a lot of history and info about the island. Then the tubing was so fun. I thought i would be afraid of the caves but it was fun. Lots of spinning around and bumping into each other. The pictures turned out great.

Reviewed by: Jeanne-Marie, 2023/08/03
Had a great time on this tubing trip with my 5 year old. Thought it would be more of a kids thing but it was really fun for the adults too. Beautiful scenery on the drive up and lots of interesting history. Tubing was exciting and tunnels were fun.

I personally think it's a bit overrated
Reviewed by: Chuang, 2023/07/31
The tour guide (a Hawaiian teenage girl, very energetic) is super awesome and nice, the safety tour guides also works super hard. It's the tour itself that I gave this rating. The tube would keep spinning and spinning which made me dizzy and created minor headache. I really hope that there is a way to force the tube to alway look forward. Some sort of a "1-person" short floaty canoe or kayak would have made this tour much more enjoyable. Thanks!
relaxing but watch out for spinning

We had the greatest time on this adventure! All the guides were great! We had Nick, Noah, and Braydon, but everyone involved with the tour was friendly, funny, and shared lots of information about the island. They made sure we were safe and having fun. They are a great crew and work hard. Wanted to do it all over again!
