Do you guys know anywhere that accepts unopened food donations? (preferably Princeville or Hanalei area) we will be on Kauai in a few weeks and always like to donate any unopened/ unspoiled food at the end of the trip
When I went ot Kauai, I got a hotel on the east side, to be more “central” to the north and south. But the current was strong there, pushing you down the coast. I did a Napali coast boat tour, going into the sea caves was amazing and a turtle was checking me out while snorkeling. Also, did a helicopter tour around the island - although pricey, it was absolutely amazing! Did a hike to the top of the cliffs on the Napali coast, which has spectacular views.
Went there this February for 1 yr wedding anniversary. It's such a tropical lush island. Everyone is so friendly. So many vegan options too!! Took the tubing, allerton garden tour & much more thanks to your videos 🙌 saw the monk seal, turtles, pigs, & whales just by walking around. & 🐓 all over the place❤
Thanks for sharing! Good to hear you found vegan options as that can be hard on the islands.
After 7 trips to Kauai I would highly recommend staying on the north shore. 10x as beautiful. They also have a Napali tour that leaves from hanalei. You’ll have to make one long drive your whole trip and that’s to go to Waimea
My wife and I loved Kauai and we made so many good memories there. We can’t wait to go back.
I hope you can go back soon!
I was there last year with my friend. I love it there. So relaxing and the beach is beautiful ❤ This island isn’t busy. It's quiet and no major traffic jams.
Love starting my weekend with a HVG video
I’ve been to Maui once and Kauai 3 times. I love love love it there!!
Probably the most informative video about Kauai.
Another great informative video. Thanks for all you guys do for us tourists
perfect timing.
Love the Guide and following your advice
Awesome, thank you! We appreciate that.
Going to Kauia in September and using your guides! THANK YOU!!!
Enjoy your trip! You will with the guides. Mahalo!
We love to stay in Princeville because its' so green. It's easy enough to drive around the island once you get through Lihue
We’re flying in tomorrow! We’re so excited. Thank you for the great tips.
have a wonderful trip to Kaua'i!
MAHALO NUI LOA!! Good info! 👏👏
Kayaking and hike 🙌
Kauai is our favorite island for hiking. Oahu is #2!
We planned our Maui trip thanks to your channel and website and will be doing the same for our upcoming trip to Kauai in August. You guys make traveling easy :)
That is wonderful to hear! Thanks so much for the feedback. Have a great trip to Kauai. See our Kauai playlist.
We’re planning a return trip to Kauai later this year. Again, thanks for all the super helpful info and insight you guys provide and please know that your desire to share your experiences is very much appreciated. 🤙🌴🌺🍍🏄♀️
Thanks so much! We do enjoy making these videos. Glad to hear you are heading back this year, have fun!
my faveeeeee island
Thanks for all your great videos, Jordan and Erica!! We are currently here on Kauai, on this Good Friday, and have done a lot of your recommendations! One thing we’ve also done is the free Hula Show at Coconut Marketplace! (On Thursday at noon) They did an excellent job of singing, the hula girls and even a flame thrower and it was free!! (Enjoyed Jo Jo’s Shave Ice, which you recommended too😊)
Thanks for all the informative videos!! Mahalo!!😎🏖️🌴Kevin and Gwen from MN 😉
Aloha Gwen and Kevin from MN, have a wonderful time on Kauai! I'm glad our recommendations are coming through for you. Thanks for sharing the free hula show at Coconut Marketplace. I love when the shopping centers offer free shows and activities. Enjoy the rest of your trip! More shave ice to be had.
Love your videos. Very helpful. My wife and I are planning to visit Kauai later this month.
Have a wonderful trip to Kauai! See our free travel guide for more details: thehawaiivacationguide.com/kauai-travel-guide/
A major do is stay in poipu or Kapaa area as they’re pretty accessible to anywhere. 2 major don’ts are don’t rent a car from budget there, beyond terrible. The other is don’t cross the road assuming drivers are gonna stop when they’re supposed to, I’ve seen people get hit.
Thank you your advice are so awesome. This moth we going to Kauai Kona we plane to use your Guide . Thank you Aloha.
Thanks for watching Maria! Have a wonderful trip to Kauai and the Big Island. Our guide will help you out a lot!
Thinking of hopping over from Oahu to Kauai for some variety since i've only been to Oahu and i need to switch it up for my vlogs 😅 thanks for this! ❤
May is my favorite month to visit!!!!
You asked for a Kauai guide 2024 video, we delivered!
@@TheHawaiiVacationGuide yes, we did!
We love September in princeville and poipu in june! 🌈🤙🏽💙
Good call!
Good stuff guyz☺️
Thanks Birdman!
Very well done video. I’m looking at doing a trip here soon
We hope you can!
This is right one time cuz I arrived to Kauai a few days ago! Don't have a car but getting around alright..😅
Kayak Kauai is highly recommended for a great experience. Also, the first two miles of the NaPali Coast Trail to Hanakapi'ai Beach is a great hike and a beautiful beach to explore but do not swim there. Reservations are required from the DLNR or take the shuttle as was suggested (I haven't tried that yet). My favorite farmers market is at Kauai Community College, Saturdays, 9:30am - 1pm.
Thanks for sharing! You did your trip right.
Thanks for this, our schedule to ne there in Kauia June to July.
Have a great trip in June and July!
We find that the Waipouli Beach Resort is the perfect place for us. Central location, well equipped units. Just a beautiful place!
We agree! It will be in our video in a couple of weeks.
Recommend Lydgate chocolate farm, just inland from Kapa’a. We skipped the tour and just did the chocolate tasting- wow- the chocolate covered macadamia nuts are amazing!! Great gift to take home and they pack it in a container with ice packs.
Thanks for sharing the recommendation! I'm loving all these chocolate farms on the islands now.
Just in time! I'm planning my honeymoon to Kauai for August right now; it will be my first time in Hawaii. Definitely trying the itinerary.
check out Common Ground farm-to-table. Here are some honeymoon things to do: thehawaiivacationguide.com/hawaii-honeymoon-things-to-do/
@@TheHawaiiVacationGuide This has some awesome things! Thank you!
Just discovered your channel. Great resource. I subscribed. Your baby I a so cute.
I’m glad you found us! Enjoy the trip planning!
AAAAAHhhhh! I thought I was set on the Big Island for my trip in October but Kauai looks amazing as well..... also seems smaller and more intimate.. I'm tying to escape the hustle and bustle and people (lol) in my daily life in Los Angeles..... hmmmmm
DO go to Kalalea Juice Hale in Anahola for their Acai bowls! There are by far our favorite of any of the islands!
thanks for sharing the spot!
My future wife and I are going to Kauai for our honeymoon (she doesn't know, I'm surprising her). I'm so excited! Thanks for this.
That is a wonderful surprise! Congratulations. Here are some honeymoon things to do for you: thehawaiivacationguide.com/hawaii-honeymoon-things-to-do/
Hi guy, love your content, what do you think is the best island to visit with family in late May early June? On somewhat of a budget. lol, no such thing in Hawaii I know.
We have a video on that: czcams.com/video/1a5th_evods/video.html
Love your channel! I do have a question. If we wanna move to Hawaii but we're heat intolerant, and love the rain, where would have the coolest summer? Also are there any luxury or newer and safe suburbs with great neighborhoods and great schools?
Thanks for watching! We recommend you speak to a Hawaii realtor. Vacationing in Hawaii is our thing. Mahalo!
Thanks for this. We plan this August 2024 and we’re excited. We will be staying at Kiahuna area. What’s a good hike trail location that will end up to a beautiful beach for swimming right after an easy to moderate hike? 🤙🏼
See #5! We show it at 09:01. thehawaiivacationguide.com/things-to-do-in-poipu/#5-hike-the-mahaulepu-heritage-trail
Hi guys, Love, Love the content but audio is echoey lately?
thanks for letting us know! we will look into it
Hi! Thank you for such an informative video! I am traveling to Kaua'i soon so I wanted to ask about the May weather conditions there. Anything I should prepare for? Lots of rain? Anything helps!
Usually it is the start of the dry season but they are getting a late storm this week. See here for visiting in May thehawaiivacationguide.com/hawaii-in-may/
I am setting up a channel on CZcams, called 62 or better. I want to address the issues of folks that I’ve retired, don’t have to work anymore, and want to do fun things like go traveling. I want to do a series of CZcams videos on our 14 day trip through the Panama Canal. I have an iPhone 13. I have CZcams wireless microphones made by Lonzie. What other equipment should I take with me on my cruise?
Good luck on the new channel! Keep it simple on equipment for your first videos. The microphone and good sound quality is the most important thing. But also the hardest, especially when filming outside. Our sound can be improved.
As a first time vistor to Hawaii do you recommend Kona or Kauai? Im torn in between both. My husband and I will be traveling together for the first time in a long time. Its pretty much a honeymoon we never got lol.
We find Kauai to be a better honeymoon spot! Have a great trip
How warm is the water? Online it says a chilly 75 degrees? No way that's right, cold springs in Florida are 72
NOAA data says 75 degrees is the coldest it gets. See our article here for data: thehawaiivacationguide.com/best-time-to-visit-hawaii/#the-best-time-to-go-swimming-in-hawaii
When there is a rainy season November and December is it raining all the time? Day and night? Every day?
We have an opportunity to travel there but in November and December … now I am a little bit worried
Rains can be short and warm. Stick to the south shore of the forecast is a lot of rain. See our article for details thehawaiivacationguide.com/hawaii-in-november/
What is the name of the trail at 9:03
My wife and I are going in January!
Yes
I would like to know as well...😮
At 9:02, it was the Maha’ulepu Heritage Trail. At 9:03 it was the hike to secret falls off the Wailua River. Have a wonderful trip in January!
@@TheHawaiiVacationGuide
Thank you.
It was Beautiful.
What is Top 3 Places I Must See? Coming Next Month 😉😁
Do you recommend a helicopter tour?
We like this company as they have the best safety record on the island thehawaiivacationguide.com/activities/best-kauai-helicopter-tour/
Airfare is crazy high, we canceled our trip this year.
I like flying Delta and found that the 12 day period from 9/4-9/16 was the cheapest 2 weeks of the year. Not sure what your budget is, but maybe it's worth a look.
@@meathook2448 thank you
I agree about airfare prices. Almost 3x higher than what we usually pay. Hoping for a sale soon…
rental car prices have been going up too, and not due to demand or a lack of cars...
We jurt got two roundtrip tickets for $640 total ($320 a piece) from LAX, so not too bad. 🤷♀️
Kauai sucks!
Why?
