A day we will treasure

5.00Elizabeth was exceptional and the Island Tour was the perfect way to start our trip. She was knowledgeable and brought so much heart and storytelling to the experience, helping us connect deeply with the rich history of Kauai. I loved hearing about the island’s gods and goddesses, while my husband and kids enjoyed learning about the nature, birds, flora, and fauna—and how everything is so beautifully interconnected. She was also incredibly flexible, adjusting parts of the tour to match our interests and making the whole day feel personalised and effortless. She was so patient with my tired teenager, which we really appreciated! The homemade banana bread was amazing and a real treat. She also took fantastic photos of us, which we’re so grateful for—we finally have great pictures together from our trip! We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a memorable and meaningful private island tour.
A Must-Do Tour in Kauai!

5.00We only had a short time in Kauai, and this tour was exactly what we wanted to see. Elizabeth was so kind and friendly. She picked us up and got us to the canyon first because there was a chance for rain that day. It ended up being a beautiful day, and Elizabeth made sure we got to see it all! We stopped for lunch at The Lodge and it was the perfect authentic lunch we had been wanting. She even surprised our son with a birthday cake since she knew we were celebrating with this trip! We felt so thankful to have selected this tour with Elizabeth because she knows so much of the history of Kauai and the Waimea Canyon. Highly recommend this tour to anyone coming to Kauai!

5.00We had an amazing experience with Kauai Luxury Tours and so do with Elizabeth. The tour started with on-time pickup and a warm welcome. Elizabeth was too good in making us aware about the facts and stories related to the tour. Home made Snacks bought by her were fresh and tasty and we enjoyed this as well. Throughout the tour she made us feel comfortable and we won’t hesitate to refer her and company to our friends and family in future. I strongly recommend folks for booking tour with them in Kauai.
Amazing Kauai private tour.

5.00We had a great private tour of Kauai from Elizabeth. Her communication was great before the tour and she picked us up right by the ship at the port. Elizabeth provided a very full 6 hour tour that covered everything from coffee to amazing views of Waimea Canyon. I highly recommend Elizabeth if you want a fantastic time in Kauai.

5.00Elizabeth rolled out the red carpet for us! If you’re looking for a private tour of Kauai, she’s the best out there. It was nice not having to share the experience with strangers and having a customized itinerary to include the things we wanted to see. She was very knowledgeable about the history of the island as well. I would 1000% recommend her! Plus… her banana bread is amazing!
Family tour of Kauai

5.00This tour was great!! Elizabeth was easy to communicate with and very responsive in advance. She was an absolute delight during the tour and tailored it to our needs. We had an 11 yo and four family adults on this tour. She was knowledgable and also showed us places that were her favorites as well. Would have loved a little more time in Hanapepe but we didn’t know we would like this town as much as we did until we were there. Banana bread was awesome!!
Fantastic tour with Elizabeth

5.00Elizabeth knows her island! She was fun, knowledgeable and got us to places not seen on the standard tours. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed her company and the tour (and her homemade macadamia nut banana bread!). I would highly recommend her.
Wonder day in Kauai

5.00Elizabeth was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. She showed us viewpoints we would probably not have done on our own and even when we had bad weather, she made sure to circle back later so that we could get a second chance to see the views over the canyon. We really enjoyed our day!
The best!

5.00Elisabeth was awesome! Very knowledgeable of the island and its history. Very personable as it was like riding around touring with family. She was also very flexible in adapting the tour to fit our desires.
Wonderful tour and guide for small parties!

5.00Elizabeth was a wonderful tour guide! She was especially knowledgeable about the island and took the time to take us to all the most scenic locations. Elizabeth communicated well prior to our meeting and was very specific about where to meet her at our pickup location. Her vehicle was exactly as described, and she was especially patient with all the members of our party. I would highly recommend her tour when visiting Kauai!
