Best of Kauai - Local Expert Guided Kauai Sightseeing Tour & Wailua River Cruise

Really enjoyed the tour

Reviewed by: The Barnetts

We wanted to give this tour 4.5 stars but couldn't. We really enjoyed the sights and the information that our guide Steve provided. He was attentive, informative, and entertaining. One suggestion would be to have a bottle of water available for each tour guest.

Blue Hawaiian Helicopters Kauai Eco Adventure Flight from Lihue

25th Anniversary Trip

Reviewed by: Melanie

This was an amazing tour!!! A first for us both and would do it again in a heartbeat!!! We had Guy as our pilot and he was amazing!! He knew so much about the island we had a hard time finding questions to ask. This is a must when you come to Kauai. This company is great as well. The only thing that happened was our video didn't get us landing but the staff did discount our video and I had videotaped our landing so we did get a bit of it though. We went with another couple ad they enjoyed it as well.

Kayak Kauai Hanalei River & Blue Lagoon Kayak & Snorkel Adventure

Rain can't stop a good time.

Reviewed by: Holly P

A warm rain fell, off and on during our float up the river, but since we were going to get wet anyhow, it didn't matter. Our guides, Web and Dan, were very attentive and funny. And knowledgeable about what we were seeing along the way.

One thing that was different from our expectation, but didn't matter too much, was that since the road past Hanalei is closed indefinitely due to a storm, the guides had to park and load things in different spots than normal, which added to the walk to the beach.

I would recommend this trip to anyone who likes fun flatwater kayaking, and great snorkeling on the north coast of Kaua'i.

Aloha Holly,

Thanks for your nice review. You were the beneficiary of our "dream team" , i.e. Web and Dan who also guide our all day sea kayak tour along Na Pali coast during the summer.

Thanks for warning others that, due to last years flood, has forced us to take a 1/4 mile walk along beautiful Hanale Bay.

Sometime in the next few months we are told that the road to the river mouth, where we generally launch, will be open once again.d

Thanks again for taking the time to share with others.

The Hanalei River and Bay has to be one of the more beautiful places on the planet.

A hui hou,

Micco

Kayak Kauai Hanalei River & Blue Lagoon Kayak & Snorkel Adventure

Brought us to a hotel beach

Reviewed by: Thilo

It was wasted money. We drove with the guides 45min to Hanalei. There we walked relatively long along the public beach to the kayaks and started to kayak in the river next corner. Nothing spectacular and you can see everything from the road. After about 1 hour kayaking they brought us to a dead reef in front of a hotel where you can go by yourself as well.

Reply from activity provider

Aloha Thilo,

Sorry to hear that our Hanalei Blue Lagoon paddle and snorkel did not meet expectations.

Many folks enjoy not only the scenic drive by van up to Hanalei but also the short hike along beautiful Hanalei Bay to the staging area; not to mention the paddle/snorkel and panorama that surrounds magical Hanalei.

We are there for folks that choose to rent and go un-guided versus those who want to and maximize their time.

Thanks for sharing and Happy Holidays.

A hui hou,

Micco

Amazing

Reviewed by: Michael T

There is no other way to see Kauai than from
above. There is so much of the island you can only see from above. I highly recommend doing it. This is our 2nd time here but 1st time seeing it from above. It is totally worth the money. Plus they are the only ones that let my 6 yr old on. After the ride, my wife and I looked at each other and couldn’t believe no other helicopter rides allowed him on it.

ヘリコプター遊覧飛行 ワイメア渓谷&ナ・パリ・コースト&ハナレイ湾 <英語ガイド/リフエ空港>

ナ パリ コースト 険しい渓谷、幾筋もの滝、紺碧な海と海岸線に感動iiそしてPilotさんとStuffの皆さんに感謝‼

Reviewed by: ユウヤケパットマン

テレビで見聞きしていましたが、この素晴らしい景観をこの目で見ることができて感動の時間を過ごせました。Pilot(Mr.ダレン)さんの英語と軽妙な日本語での説明で、飛行前の不安を忘れ、リラックスでき、あっという間の時間でした。このツアーに参加するにあたって経験したことを少し、記載しますので参考にしてください。
1. リフエ空港からBlue Hawaiiann事務所まで徒歩で約10分(1㎞)くらい。
  (ホテルからカウアイバスを利用したので参考まで)
2.入口ドアを開けると、正面に受付。受付カウンターで名前を告げます。次に、当日の体重を測ることになるのですが、ちょうど自分が立っている足マットの下が、体重計になっています。(何やら説明されていたようですが、よく聞き取れませんでした。)
3. ツアーについての説明開始時間を教えてくれます。
4. ツアーについての説明(安全)は、プロジェクターで行われますが、外国人向けに字幕を付けてくれます。最初のオリエンテーションの最後に必要な人は、と問われるので、”Japanese”。(私は、聞き逃しました。)
5.プロジェクターでの説明後に、自分の乗るヘリコプターの座席位置が知らされます。
6.ツアー終了後、受付カウンターで当日のフライト画像(音声付き)のUSBメモリーを購入できます。40でした。

  • 海岸線でポットポンドを発見!!

  • この日は、たくさんの滝が見れました。翌日の海からのアプローチでは、まったく見れませんでした。

  • よくテレビで見かけます。

Kauai Movie Tour

Reviewed by: Alice

It was a good way to check out some of the sites of movie scenes from Kauai. Relaxing and no stress, if that’s what you seek. Jonna was great, providing more of a local perspective and was also one of the founders of this movie tour. However note that due to recent flooding, tour won’t bring you to Hanalei Pier.

Blue Hawaiian Helicopters Kauai Eco Adventure Flight from Lihue

Worth every penny!

Reviewed by: Mike and Melinda

The entire experience was awesome. Nice building at the helipad with merchandise and restrooms if you need them. The pre-flight instructions and guidance upon loading/unloading was great with a photo op post-flight in front of the helicopter. The pilot made us feel safe the entire time. I get motion sickness on boats and was a little worried but no issues at all (I took a ginger pill but not sure it was needed as it felt very steady). Take photos/videos on the ride but be sure to just appreciate it with your own eyes too because it’s really amazing! Don’t hesitate to go, it’s worth the extra money vs. other excursions. FYI - this was a review from a rainy/cloudy day...I can’t imagine what it must look like with a nice sunny/clear sky!

Our daughter bought us this trip for our 30th wedding anniversary. We then added four of our good friends that we came with. Kayaking up and down the river was amazing, and on into the ocean. Our snorkeling adventure was awesome, as we saw a Sea Turtle and beautiful fish! Lunch was delicious too! Lisa and Steve did a great job! We were especially grateful for Lisa sharing her expansive knowledge of nature, surfing, and the Hawaiian culture! She was super accommodating taking pictures and setting up lunch! Many thanks!!!

Oahu to Kauai Day Tour from Honolulu - Movie Adventure Tour & Helicopter Flight

Excellent Day Trip to Kauai

Reviewed by: TravelNut

We wanted to save time but not transfer hotels so we booked a day trip to Kauai from Oahu. It was an excellent overall experience. We were picked up on time but I'm not sure why it was so early because we waited a couple hours before the flight. Our guide was lovely and we enjoyed the movie tie-in to many scenic spots. Lunch was very good at the cafe used in The Descendants film. I would have liked a little more time to explore Hanalei but we did have time for a yummy shave ice. The beach with the long pier was memorable. The helicopter tour was exciting and gave us an entirely different perspective of the island. Once back at the airport we had to wait more than 2 hours for the flight. Not sure why these day trips are set up this way. It makes for a longer day than should be necessary.

The only downside was the people flew in for the day and we were delayed waiting for them which cut our time short at some of our viewing sites.
