Our guides (Tori, Tyler and Kayden) were funny, informative and very personable. For such young ages they all seemed comfortable conversing with all ages of the group. Our families favorite part was the tunnel and feeding the ducks while trying to catch a fish. Highly recommend this adventure. You get dirty and it's dusty. I wouldn't wear white! So fun though. Beautiful views, history and amazing unplugged fun 😊

Kauai ATV FUN!

Robert_W, Aug 2023

I have been on other ATV tours on Kauai and by far this was the best. The tour guides were knowledgeable and friendly. The trails were challenging and the vehicles we amazing. Great time.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Aloha, Thank you so much for your praise, we hope that through your experience you were able to explore all that our backroads have to offer.

A lot of fun

Sherri_L, Jul 2023

I love they’re saying, “ do something dirty”, because you will get muddy. The ride was fun, the views were fantastic and the guides were knowledgeable and very good

Quite an adventure!

Rene_L, Jul 2023

Wade and Ariel were awesome guides and very knowledgeable about all the history of the island. We had so much fun getting dirty!!!

Aloha, We are so thrilled you had so much fun on tour. Through the guidance of our tour guides we hope that all the history and knowledge passed on to you will motivate you to join us again one day soon. In the meantime, our trails will get better and dirtier so that your second time around will be all that much greater.

Great time!!!

Enjoyed the ATV Tour. Had a great time with all the scenery and all the information that the tour guides (Kendell and Wade) provided about the area. My husband actually caught a fish from the lake (made his day) Thanks for a great time. DDJ

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Aoha, We loved hearing about your tour experience with Kauai ATV. While the scenery and history entice our guests, what really sends the tour through the roof is the charm and wit our guides. We hope that through their care, you'll be willing to join us again in the future. By then, we'll have even more fish for your husband to catch!

What an incredible experience!

Katy_C, Jul 2023

We can't say enough good things about this tour! We had a blast driving through the island terrain and the tour guides Mana and his side kick (can't remember his name, but he was great) We absolutely loved all the stops we made at different areas and got to hear some really amazing island history, you can tell the guides really care about the land and heritage. Granola bars and ice cold drinks were a big hit, we even got to try our hand at fishing like the locals. We went expecting to get muddy, and this ride delivered! Such a fun thrill, and our tour guides kept us all safe and sound.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

We hope that you'll be joining us sooner than later when you return to the islands. Mahalo nui.

CJ_M, Jul 2023

Not only is the tour extremely fun and educational about the island of Kauai, our guides Mana and Ace were Great!! We laughed and enjoyed our time driving through the property. Don't forget to hit as many puddles as you can😁. For some of us, it was our 3rd time with Kauai ATV Backroads Adventure Tour... and I am sure we will do it agaon on other visits. Mahalo to our guides.. See you next time. ALOHA

Nicole_D, Jun 2023

This was such a fun event. The tour guides were amazing. Very informative, personal and extremely funny. The scenery of this tour is breathtaking beautiful and can’t be put into words. One just needs to sign up for this tour. We had an amazing time and cannot brag enough about the two tour guides, the fun riding through the red mud and taking in beauty of Kauai.
