FAQs
Open Mondays-Fridays, Closed on Saturdays and Sundays.
Party sizes
Most of our tours have 4 - 12 people. If your tour only has one or two people, it will very likely be necessary to move you to the next available tour with short notice. For your convenience and for efficient & fast booking, we now show availability for each of our six tours per day (except we are closed on all Saturday's and Sundays). There is a nominal convenience fee automatically paid to a 3rd party for this special service.
It is still possible to reserve by phone to avoid this extra charge. However, we maintain a very small phone staff in order to keep our prices low and you may want to make a booking after business hours.
Contact us for Private parties over 12 people. We have the equipment and "people" power to manage large groups.
Beginning 21 March , 2022 there will be an automatic $20/person gratuity added to the cost of all tour groups 11 persons and over.
Calling during peak days and hours can be frustrating. We encourage you to take advantage of this online booking service and save yourself time and effort.
Cancellations
REFUND POLICY:
Customers will receive a full refund with at least 24 hours notice of cancellation. If you or a member of your party must cancel within 24 hours of your booking time, contact us by phone or voice mail asap. If we can replace one or more of your party, there would be no penalty for the same number of persons who are replaced.
AFTER CHECK-IN, OUR NO-REFUND POLICY IS AS FOLLOWS:
Please be advised that Kayak Wailua has a no-refund policy to enable us to keep our prices low. There are two limited exceptions to our no-refund policy:
- If there is a flash flood watch or a flash flood warning for the North Fork of the Wailua River, we cancel our waterfalls tours and all customers can rebook without penalty or receive a full refund.
- If the current aka discharge at the stream crossing is too swift to traverse, all customers will receive a 50% refund. Usually the discharge which is calibrated by "cubic feet per second" cannot be accurately determined without witnessing the cfs in person. (The Department of Land & Natural Resources no longer allows our kayak tour companies to install and maintain a rope at the crossing).
