Amazing experience!! - A real challenge but the guides - Matt and Nan - took us step by step through the training and then down two beautiful falls. They were very watchful of our progress from top to bottom. We were 4 of a group of 8 people. Our young adults are ready to go again asap. Us parents of the young adults (60+) loved it as well but feel like we checked this one off the bucket list. Highly recommend!!!!

Great experience. - This was the most amazing thing we did while in Kauai. It was amazing to rappel down a waterfall. Never experienced anything like it before. Getting to spend time at the waterfalls with a small group is amazing too. Even our watchers enjoyed it.

Amazing experience! - Kate and Nan were amazing! They were so patient with us while we were learning and really understanding of our fears. I loved the experience and it was so unique. I'm so glad I was able to do this because I will probably never have the opportunity to do this again. The guides made it such a fun experience. They talked to us about island history on the hike to the falls and were very personable!!!

A Exhilarating Experience! - The rappell was a wonderful thrill. Matt and Nan did a great job of coaching and encouraging us. We had a practice run on a small dry hill before heading out to the two waterfalls. We were lucky and time allowed everyone to get a second shot at the larger of the two waterfalls. This is suitable for both first timers and those with some experience.

Something different! - We had a great day! Felt very safe and the training was good. Hardest part was the hiking uphill in mud. Water was refreshing. They showed great patience with my daughter and encouraged everyone. We would do it again.

Fun waterfall activity - I did the waterfall rappelling tour with Matt and Kate and they went out of their way to make sure everyone felt safe and comfortable with the activity. If you are looking for something that's unusual and active on Kauai and have a good sense of adventure, this is a great choice. Communications from the company were prompt and included a lot of useful info.
