History & Background
Kauai Backcountry Adventures operates on land that was once part of the Lihue Plantation, one of Kauai's oldest sugar plantations. The irrigation canals used for the tubing tours were originally built in the 1800s to transport water from the mountains to the sugarcane fields. Today, these canals provide a one-of-a-kind adventure, blending history with modern-day excitement. The company has been offering these tours for years, allowing visitors to connect with Kauai's agricultural past in an entirely new way.
