Kauai Plantation Railway

Awesome tour. Highly recommended. Kai was our guide for the 3.5 hour tour! He was very knowledgeable and friendly. Bring a bag with you on this tour, depending on the season, you get to sample all different varieties of fruits and take some with you as well! Lunch was great, we chose two different things so we could share. Fresh catch sandwich was awesome. If you come to Kauai definitely add this to you to do list. Priced very good with everything you get on this trip! Mahalo Kai!!

We booked 3 separate excursions and this was by far my favorite. I recommend doing the nature walk tour with train ride. Well worth it. Kai was our guide. Super knowledgeable and friendly. I recommend going towards the beginning of your trip rather than the tail end as they let you pick fruit to take home. And I tell ya the fruit is delicious!!!!

We had so much fun on the Plantation Railway! Even the guys in our group enjoyed it (we originally planned that just the girls would go, but the guys joined us & they were glad they did). The conductor & narrator were both very friendly and fun. It was very interesting hearing about the different fruit trees and vegetation on the island. Halfway through the train ride, we stopped to feed pigs, chickens, cows, and a horse. It was so much fun! The cows were hilarious & would open their mouth wide for you to drop the food right in their mouths. You should go on the train! It is such a great value!

What a fun experience and great tour guide and engineer! We loved to feed the animals and hear about the crops grown on the plantation. Loved hearing the history and current use of the plantation! Would really have loved for the old mansion to be a tour and not a variety of gift shops, but at least they identified each room as what it had been at the time it was used as a home. It was stunning and spacious and I can only imagine how luxurious it was when it was a family home.

Lots of parking catching the first train ride of the day. They should make it obvious that you have to go inside to get a paper ticket for your reservation. 40 minutes went by quickly and it gets really crowded for the size of the small gift shop. Tour guide was decent with the history and dad jokes. We might have missed if they sold the fruit that they grow on site.
