Stephanie & Raul

On our romantic escape we will discover the highlights of our honeymoon destination with your generous wedding gift. Expedia offers an array of tours, activities and excursions. Thank you for allowing us to plan our dream honeymoon by contributing to any and all of our adventures as a newly married couple.

We'll board a sleek and roomy helicopter and soar beyond the beaches to Kauai's largely uninhabited tropical wilderness, uncovering the undulating, secluded beauty of the Garden Isle's more aloof side. Next, we will get our toes out of the sand and see what really makes Kauai special, soaking up views that literally stretch for miles on a 50-minute aerial ride over the oldest Hawaiian island.

We'll come face to face with Hawaii's most famous waterfall - Manawaiopuna Falls - on Kauai. This elite helicopter tour will take us to a privately-owned valley, home to Manawaiopuna Falls (better known as "Jurassic Falls"). Our pilot will land the helicopter near the base of the waterfall, shut the aircraft down and personally escort us over a small footbridge and along a jungle pathway to the front of this nearly 400-foot (122-meter) waterfall. Once at the waterfall, we will have the opportunity to feel the mist on your face, take awesome pictures or just enjoy the power and beauty of this magnificent waterfall while our knowledgeable pilot talks about the flora, fauna and geological attributes of this area.

For Join us on 7 exhilarating ziplines beginning at our original Treehouse Zipline Course. Each line on this tour is different - single lines, tandem lines, Zippel over a waterfall, ride over rivers and across Kipu Ranch. And once you're all done warming up, it's time to fly high above Kauai on Hawaii's longest zipline.

This full day of adventure has it all! We will enjoy fantastic scenery as we kayak a leisurely two miles on the Hule'ia River. We will learn about the ecology, natural history, culture, folklore, and legends of Kauai while hiking the private footpaths through Kauai's pristine tropical paradise. We will climb aboard a one-of-a-kind farm wagon and take in the spectacular views of Kipu Ranch - made famous in films like Jurassic Park and Raiders of the Lost Ark. We will enjoy a sumptuous picnic lunch, and then comes the highlight, ziplining through the wild forest canopy! We will fly past the breathtaking Haupu Mountains and over towering trees on a thrilling 800' Zipline. We will take in the sights as we traverse a lush rain forest valley on an exciting suspension bridge. We will share a shriek with each other on a new 1800' tandem zipline that are the ultimate rush! The center dismount allows for 90 seconds of air time so we will be "in-flight" for over a quarter mile! Next, we will cool off at the beautiful, secluded, wet and wild Blue Pool. We can try the new T-Bar Water Zipline; we just hold on, step off and zip over the refreshing waters, let go, and SPLASH! We will take a short walk through the rainforest back to riverside where we will kick back and relax as Hawaiian-style canoe motors us home. It's the perfect day for adventurers of all ages, and one we will remember always!

We'll spend the morning sailing through paradise along the emerald and crimson patchwork Na Pali Coast. Towering sea cliffs, misty waterfalls and otherworldly lava tubes provide a backdrop for our seafaring adventure. We'll get ready to spend our morning on one of 2 sleek 55-foot (17-m) catamarans - Spirit of Kauai and Spirit of Akialoa. The breeze off the water will drive our vessel through the salty air as the captain takes us to his favorite snorkeling spots.

Visible only by air or by sea, the stunning cliffs of the Na Pali Coast are even more spectacular at sunset. We'll enjoy a delicious dinner as the sun sinks below the horizon. We'll sail along Kauai's dramatic Na Pali Coast, with views of sea cliffs, waterfalls and lava tubes.

Our unique tubing adventure will take us back in time to the sugar plantation era. We will relive old traditions and tube the flumes and ditches of the old Lihue Plantation.

We should get ready to have some fun and get wet!

We'll fall in love with Kauai in record time on this guided showcase of "The Grand Canyon of the Pacific" that also highlights Nawiliwili Harbor, Hanapepe Lookout, Spouting Horn and many more of the island's most beautiful natural formations.

On our romantic honeymoon we will enjoy a peaceful ride on gentle horses, ambling across a private, working cattle ranch. Our unique adventure begins with 30 minutes on horseback, soaking up panoramic views of mountains, valleys and the ocean. We might even find ourselves riding through a herd of cows and calves. Along the way, our guide will share ranch and paniolo history with the true spirit of aloha. This horseback ride is safe for the first-time rider and enjoyable for the experienced, as well. After tying up the horses, we'll hike about 15 minutes along a steep trail, up and down (500-foot gain) with steps and rope handholds. As we wind through the lush rainforest, we'll descend a 10-foot rock wall on our way to a private 80-foot waterfall where we will explore the falls, and swim in the fern-lined pool. Then we will enjoy a delicious picnic and relax, before hiking out for 15 minutes (including a climb back up the rock wall). Our adventure ends with a leisurely ride back across open pastures, enjoying the spectacular scenery.

We'll watch as the evening dims and then relights with poi ball twirlers and fire knife dancers. A lavish buffet will await us in an evening that captures the gambit - from the quiet intimacy to the stunning display of sight and sounds. Nestled in a 35-acre (14-ha) manicured pasture, Gaylord's Restaurant Kilohana sits at the end of a winding driveway. When we enter we will see the paintings of Ethel and Gaylord Parke Wilcox that line the walls. The luau celebrates the triumphs and struggles of the Hawaiian people - culminating in word, music and the hypnotic light trails of a fire dance.

With diverse landscape, abundant wildlife and spectacular views this signature tour makes Kipu Ranch one of the premier eco-tour locations in Hawaii. We will ride through lush green pastures, venture down into tropical Huleia Valley, and ascend to majestic Haupu for a breathtaking view of Kipu Kai, Kauai's untouched paradise.

From the Kama’aina to visitors around the world, this tour will leave us speechless!

We will see four different varieties of Theobroma Cacao and Theobroma Grandiflorum. At the end of the tour we will sit down to a chocolate tasting to sample a multitude of chocolates from Hawaii, all grown and made on Kauai and the Big Island.
