Kauai Tubing - Backcountry Adventure
Truly a unique and memorable backcountry adventure for the entire family! Traverse Lihue's old sugar cane plantation into Kaua‘i's pristine emerald green interior and enjoy breathtaking vistas and spectacular scenery. Then, grab a tube, don a headlamp, and jump in for a leisurely cruise.
Tube Plantation Ditch System
The Lihue Plantation irrigation ditch and tunnel system once irrigated vast sugar crops on Kaua‘i but has been unused since sugar was taken out of production in 2000. The irrigation system runs through some of the most beautiful land on the island with spectacular views of the ocean, coastline and valleys. Beginning near the top of Mount Wai‘ale‘ale, the waterway and ditch system wind through open canals, rushing flumes and mysterious tunnels.

The activity itself was great but I have to say that the crew was what made the experience. They were funny, personable, had lots of knowledge to share about the tour and the island itself.

the lunch order was not quite what I requested...our family got all turkey (which was OK). I ordered a variety of sandwiches...but, that's not a big deal!

We went on a rainy day and it was great. Might let people know in your advertising that weather isn't a factor.

water time was limited-they tried to fill in time with "lunch" & vista viewing-a three hour activity was only a 45 minute tubing experience.

My wife and I were in Kauai from 9/25 thru 9/28 celebrating our 40th Anniversary. The backcountry tubing adventure was one of the highlights of our stay on the island. The crew was fantastic and made the entire adventure extremely memorable. We were fed sandwiches, chips, and softdrinks for lunch. The sandwiches were fresh and the crew sat and talked with everyone during lunch. I would highly recommend this activity to anyone vacationing on the island of Kauai.

Although the activity was billed for 2.5 miles, it felt shorter than that. Well run from a safety perspective but host could have used more presentation skills.
