Jackson was our wonderful tour guide, he was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to as well. We lucked out and had a small group so Jackson was able to personalize our experience a bit which was very nice.
The company Jackson works for seems to be run fairly well, and if they have more tour guides like Jackson then we will absolutely sign up for more activities with them.

Our tour guide Jeremy (JAK) was the best part of this trip. He is full of enthusiasm and energy. He talks about everything your eyesight lands on in a funny way. We did not swim in the waterfall because it was rough that day. Be careful neither tickets to dole garden are included nor the dole whip.

Aloha Nuha,
Thank you so much for the kind words about Jak. We'll sure to pass this along to him. We're sorry the waterfall conditions weren't swimmable that day. Stream conditions can change quickly, and safety always comes first for us.
Regarding Dole Plantation, the tour includes a stop at the plantation grounds itself, but admission tickets to the attractions are not included in the tour price. We'll also take a look at our tour materials to make sure this is communicated as clearly as possible up front.
Thank you again for your review. We truly appreciate it and we hope to welcome you back on another adventure with us soon.

Easy hike, paved path. So refreshing. Very safe. The water was cool but not cold. Had so much fun. I recommend it.
We had an amazing day and learned so much from our very knowledgeable tour guide Jason. We highly recommend this tour!
Wonderful experience. Easy hike and the waterfall swim was so cool. My 10 year old said this was one of the coolest things he’s ever done.
Our driver/guide Jason was wonderful. He had so much info on the area, the plants and trees. The waterfall was spectacular. Definitely an outing I’d recommend
Our tour guide Jack was awesome! This tour was so cool we learned so much about the culture of the island and the waterfall was absolutely stunning! Would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting the island!
Jason and anon were the best guides ever. Informative. Fun. The gardens and falls were beautiful. Great food. No complaints
This is an excellent tour and tour company. Very attentive, informative and friendly. Walk to waterfall is gorgeous and not strenuous. If swimming bring water shoes and note there is a place to change clothes. Food was excellent!
Started off rough when we were picked up about 45 minutes late. Could have done without the coffee farm stop. Our pastry was a hot dog. Waimea valley saved the tour. It was beautiful and our guide/driver was great. He was very fun to talk with and very knowledgeable. His helper was the Japanese interpreter and he was so funny. Would have liked more time at dole plantation to ride the train but we weren’t allowed since we had such a late start. Lunch was very good.
Trip to Waimea Falls and Dole plantation. Easy pick up, comfortable and cool bus. Very friendly guide/driver. Waimea falls was great but Dole plantation too short. It stated 2 hrs. We only got 1 hr.
Jackson was our wonderful tour guide, he was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to as well. We lucked out and had a small group so Jackson was able to personalize our experience a bit which was very nice.
The company Jackson works for seems to be run fairly well, and if they have more tour guides like Jackson then we will absolutely sign up for more activities with them.
Coffee, was lovely, the Garden’s at the waterfall are beautiful, hiking is easy. Fantastic day out, our guide was amazing.
Amazing tour!!! Jonathan was the best. So informational and interesting to listen about the facts of Hawaii.
The activities were just as described and our driver kept us on task. We were able to see and do what we had planned.
Waterfall swimming activity definitely worth the trip, would highly recommend booking thru Nature to go.
The tour was great! Host was excellent in communicating the travel plans … from pick up destination and time to pre-planning snacks and lunch. The highlight was the waterfall experience. I would recommend taking water shoes and a water bottle. The lunch was more than expected. Definitely recommend!
Jackson was an amazing guide. Fun, knowledgeable, and made us feel right at home. The swim, chefs kiss! This was the reason I booked the tour, and the whole experience was amazing!
Great time with Jason and Mai! Coffee, banana bread, Hawaiian history, fun hike, beautiful waterfall, yummy lunch, Dole Whip and scenic drive! Even learned some Hawaiian words!
Jason our very knowledgeable guide was very nice to take us along the road. When we arrived, he took us to the fall explaining us a lot of things about plants and trees. We wear a group. I would say you’re 15 people you are free. If you wanna go ahead, you can or like me and my husband we prefer to walk along the way to the cascade with Jason, who taught us a lot of things I didn’t know About the trees. The swimming in the cascade was very refreshing and fun. It was not too crowded. It’s easy to get in if you like to walk on the rocks.. in the morning, he took us to a place to have our coffee with a banana cake, but you have the option to buy something by yourself if you want more the place was very green. On our way back we stopped at doll which she is also a place to shop if you want to and where are you? Definitely taste their delicious with capital letters pineapple ice cream but you have other options too.
