We had an awesome tour with Doug seeing the North side on one day and the Waimea Canyon on the other. We had certain things we wanted to see and saw them all along with with other sights Doug added in. We really liked how it was our own personal tour. Doug was a great tour guide and we really enjoyed our time. Mahalo!

Aloha, I’m Doug, the Kauai Tour Guy. I’ve lived on Kauai 12 years and during that time I drove school, public transit and tour buses until the opportunity for starting my own business of becoming a tour guide on Kauai came along. My passion for photography, geography, history and the culture of Kauai is evident on my private guided tours of Kauai as I drive visitors like you from around the world. My private tours start when I pick you up from your accommodation, airport or directly from the cruise ship! Join me as just you and your party enjoy a Kauai day trip of fun experiences as I show and share Kauai with you like a local and of course leave the driving to me. A hui hou aku!

Travelling in a tourist bus is not for us, so having Doug show us around was a perfect day. He is knowledgable and gave us a lot of background about his island home. The Waimea Canyon was superb, and the rainbow eucalyptus an asked for special side trip. Thank you Doug for putting up with us. Five star day. Diane.

Thanks Doug for showing us an amazing time around Kauai! Our family was doing a day trip to Kauai and so we needed to find a tour that could show us most of the island in a short amount of time.
Doug was a great tour guide! Punctual and respected our time. We opted for a shorter than usual tour and he was able to squeeze in many beautiful sights! Very knowledgeable on island history and gave some great tips on restaurants and locations to see for the rest of our trip! Highly recommend!
We had a wonderful experience with Doug! We enjoyed a great 10 hours (split into 2 days). This personal tour was the best choice for us with my husband’s handicap. We were able to go at our own pace, easy in and out of Doug’s SUV with great conversation along with his wealth of knowledge. Thank you, Doug, for a trip we will never forget!!
