Hanalei, a jewel among the islands, and a hub to countless activities. Two life guarded beaches, river's, kayaking, hiking, shoping, tatoos, boating, farmers markets, yoga, massage, spas, music and much much more. Tons of activities for before or after our food tour. I would suggest possibly matching a food tour with a morning surf lesson, Napali boat ride, hike, sunset on the beach, ukulele lesson, possibly all followed by live music at Tahiti Nui. An easy trick to keeping the fun going, our many stops will satisfy all your food cravings, while you explore the spots. The food tour will be a fun part of an unforgettable day!
