Kauai, also known as the Garden Isle, features a number of natural attractions that cannot be accessed via traditional roadways; therefore, a variety of unique tour options allow visitors to experience the beauty of the island in seemingly unconventional ways. Popular tours include horseback rides down the steep slopes of Waimea Canyon, helicopter tours of the Na Pali Coast, and kayak excursions down Hawaii's only navigable river to a hidden fern grotto.
