It was pretty, but kinda boring we did the self guided tour with the book, which we were charged $50 bucks and thought that was with a guided tour but wasn’t, it was hot and little shade, and the book and markers didn’t add up making it more confusing.. if I was to visit Kauai again I would pass this up
