Kauai Tour Bundle

North Shore Kauai Driving Tour

Aloha Shaka Guiders,

Due to the March 2026 storms, you may notice some changes along your tour—things like temporary road closures, limited access to certain stops, or areas that are still recovering. Our routes are designed to guide you safely, but conditions can shift, so a little flexibility goes a long way.

As you explore, we ask that you travel with care and respect—for the land, the communities, and the people who call these places home. If an area looks closed or impacted, please honor posted signs and avoid entering. These moments are part of the story of Hawai‘i too, and your kuleana (responsibility) as a visitor helps keep these places protected for everyone.

Mahalo for your understanding, and for exploring with aloha 💛

Waimea And Na Pali Driving Tour

Aloha Shaka Guiders,

I wanted to share a quick note about Waimea Canyon and Kōkeʻe State Parks as you plan your drive.

I’ve been keeping an eye on the ongoing road work projects in the Waimea Canyon area. Because conditions can change, I highly recommend checking all the links we’ve provided as you plan your visit and again closer to your drive day.

For the most part, Waimea Canyon and Kōkeʻe State Parks should still be open and visitable, but you should expect delays and limited parking, especially during peak hours. This is pretty typical during periods of road work here in Hawaiʻi, and it’s nothing to worry about—just something to plan around.

My biggest tip? Go early if you can. Earlier mornings usually mean lighter traffic, easier parking, and cooler weather. A little extra planning goes a long way here.

Mahalo for traveling with Shaka Guide and for taking the time to explore Kauaʻi thoughtfully. Waimea Canyon holds a special place in my heart, and I hope you enjoy every overlook, breeze, and moment along the drive.

With aloha,
Amy from Shaka Guide 🌈

P.S. Pāʻulaʻula aka Russion Fort Elizabeth is temporarily closed "until further notice" due to construction. So if this stop is a bucket list location for you, check the DLNR Kauai (link above) website to see the status.
