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.

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. The Tubing Adventure is an exclusive tubing experience that occurs on private lands that have never before been open to the public. There's something for everyone and every fitness level! We should get ready to have some fun and get wet!

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.

We'll learn to shred killer waves during a small-group lesson of no more than 3 fellow wave riders. We'll prepare for a 90-minute session on Hawaii's most forgiving waves in Hanalei or Wailua. We’ll slide into our Quicksilver rash guard t-shirt, hop on our beginner surfboard and we will put our trust in this local surf legend who’s been hitting the waves around the world for more than 40 years.

It's casual, fun and perfect for an afternoon lunch. With so many restaurants in town, we'll choose the most perfect, casual restaurant where we'll take delight in the juiciest burgers, fresh sandwiches, chicken and fries!
