Top 10 Bus Tours in Lihue, Hawaii (HI)

April 11, 2022 Tambra Mccollister

Lihue, Kauai's capital city, is also served by the island's only airport, making it the most popular port of entry to Kauai and a hub of industry on this small island. However, Lihue retains its island charm and emerald beauty despite its urbanization. Spend the day sunbathing and dipping into the temperate waters at Kalapaki Beach before enjoying a luau at Kilohana Plantation. Step out of town to witness breathtaking Wailua Falls cascading over tiered stone to a drop of 80 feet.

This was a wonderful all-day trip up the east and north sides of Kauai. John is a very knowledgeable guide and knows all the ins and outs of the island. It was a relaxing and enjoyable trip from start to finish! Nice lunch break of our choice in Hanalei. We’ve also done the west side Waimea trip, and although quite different, equally enjoyable. Do both trips if you can. It’s well worth it!

This is a good and inexpensive way to do the Haleakala sunset tour with audio narrative of things to see along the way to the mountain top. Good value for the price. A quick tip: this app burns through your phone battery fast so having a car phone cable is a must or else your phone battery will run out of juice pretty quick...

This luau was amazing. I enjoyed the show because it covered a lot of hawaiian legends and lore. The food was so good! The only downside was that when our section was released to the buffet line many of the food items were needing to be restocked however the wait staff were rapidly trying to fill the food items. But I didn’t get to try all food items. The bar drinks were included with the meal. Would definitely recommend this luau for those visiting the island.

We booked this tour through NCL. It was a very nice day, and we felt we saw many beautiful areas that Kauai has to offer. Our guide was Kaleo. He was very knowledgeable, and he seemed to be enjoying what he was doing. I'll leave the description of the actual tour/stops to the info that can be found online. I especially wanted to see a waterfall, and that we did! Opeakaa Falls. Our guide also took a novelty picture of us "fighting off a Godzilla monster," to go with the Jurassic Park theme. Our lunch stop was enjoyable - Kaleo called in our order ahead of time, so we entered the restaurant with our food being brought to our table within 5 minutes. We then had a chance to walk through the various shops in the area. I would recommend this tour as a nice way to see various locations on the Island. Mahalo Kaleo.
