Kaua’i Ziplining

THIS TOUR WAS AMAZING! I did the Mountain trek, wagon, and Zipline.

When I first found out what I was doing I didn’t know what I was getting into. All I knew was that I was going to be in a wagon and on a ranch. I didn’t know what fun or boring time I’d be having.

Kaua’i is so far my favorite island. I had high hopes for this tour. Luckily the tour group was small. Usually it’s a group of 20- we had 8! It’s always better when there are less people. One of the crew members was an escort too, John from the shops.

We pull up to this ranch, with cattle - the whole 9 yards. Amazing views of the mountains there. I love it! Especially the morning. I hate getting up that early, but its so worth it for the views ya know.

We get on this wagon that hooked up to a tracker. It was a cool ride. I got some sweet footage. We saw the spot where Jurassic Park was filmed.

We than get to the zipline. I did ziplining before, I liked it but after awhile I was like okay…ehhhh. It was very proper-structured….I don’t know the vibe was waaaaaaay different doing it with this group. It was sooo much more fun. We had less zips, but it was so much better. The passengers got to zip line without holding on and backwards the second time around. I was filming so I only did one zip at the first stop. It was cool hiking back to the spot that we started. You zip across and hike back. It sounds like it sucks, but it totally doesn’t cause you got to go across these cool bridges!! It was like hiking through a giant tree house!!!

So we go on a small hike, saw these cool spiders called crab spiders. They are super poisonous. I couldn’t get a picture my camera was being difficult. I don’t know why. ☹

We hike to the next zip line. Again it looks like a giant tree house. This zip line was great. You HAVE to do it backwards. When you do it you free fall for like 2 seconds!! You than go upside down!! I tried but it didn’t work for me. Lol. I put myself doing it on the dvd. It was hilarious. Lol so fun!
You zip across then you have to go over on these hanging bridges, over these streams. Again, a sweet tree house deal. ☺

After that we hike to this waterhole where we got to zipline into the water!! I did it twice. I also jumped off this 5 or 6 meter platform. I did that twice. I was so scared, but just did it. Than we hiked, had lunch than went to the second watering hole place with these cool little waterfalls and did rope jump thing. John and I were the only ones that did it. The passengers got a kick out of us. ☺

I got eaten alive by the bugs in the rain forest, but hey it was soo worth it. They’re going away by now anyway. That tour was so fun. The tour guides were really cool too!
