Smith's Family Garden Luau - Polynesian & Fire Show, Dinner and Open Bar

Best Luau

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

I can not say one bad thing about Smith's Luau. Everything they did was above average. The tour of their tropical paradise was wonderful. The imu was authentic and they do a wonderful job of making it special. The food was amazing, especially the pork, mahi mahi, and the rice pudding. The entertainment during the meal was fantastic and really got the crowd involved. Last the show was probably the best part. It was an amazing experience and probably one of our favorite experiences while we were on Kauai and definitely the best value.

Kauai Backcountry Adventures Mountain Tubing Tour with Lunch

Best time EVAR!!!

Reviewed by: Ems and Juan

My friends went on this tour last year and they kept telling us how awesome and amazing it was, so of course when my husband and I went to Kauai last month, we knew that we had to try the tubing ourselves, and I am so so so so so happy that I did. It had to be the most amazing time and srsly...this was way better than just sitting on the beach. If you get a chance...DO EEEET! :)

Smith's Family Garden Luau - Polynesian & Fire Show, Dinner and Open Bar

Kamika Smith

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

The Luau at Smith's Tropical Paradise was very nice. I was impressed with the multitude of talents on display by the staff, such as Kamika Smith managing, cracking jokes, singing, and even serving coffee - he seemed to be everywhere. My wife, her mother and I really enjoyed the food, music and show. It was a very pleasant evening.

The one thing I would say had room for improvement was the mai tai punch - it was 1 or 2 % abv at most, 4 or 5 % abv would have been better.

We would be happy to return next time we are on Kauai. Overall our trip was a lot of fun and very relaxing - just what we needed.

Smith's Family Luau

Reviewed by: TheTexas Nicholas'

WHAT A TREAT!! We went to the Luau after visiting the Fern Grotto and had the perfect ending to a perfect day! We had a lei greeting then boarded the tram that took us along the winding path so we could see the beautiful gardens, lush tropical trees, lovely scenery. After walking around the grounds, we all gathered at the in-ground oven to view the digging up of the roasted Imu (pig). Then everyone went to the lovely dining area where we all enjoyed tropical drinks and the delicious feast. During dinner, Hawaiian entertainers performed traditional Hawaiian music, singing, and hulas. Children were invited onstage to learn the hulas so it was great fun to watch!! Following the feast, everyone went to the grand outdoor theater to witness the torch lighting and a spectacular Polynesian music production where each of the Islands presented dramatic traditional hulas and music. It is great family fun, not to be missed!!

Smith's Kauai Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Live Entertainment

Fern Grotto River Ride

Reviewed by: Barbara

We loved this tour. The ride up the river was informative and absolutely beautiful. Walking the Grotto was amazing. So many types of plants. You will be amazed. Be sure to walk through slowly. Look at every flower and in between leaves so you don't miss the giant bumble bees or the beautiful birds. Some people walked too quickly and missed these wonders of nature.

The ride back was pleasant with the staff playing music and dancing. They were great guides and great people. One of the guides walked slowly with us and told us all about the different plants and what the natives used these plants for. Super informative. I felt sorry for those who didn't take the time to listen to his wealth of knowledge.

Good Family Fun

Reviewed by: The Nicholas'

As first-timers to the Fern Grotto, my husband and I had a great time!The boat ride, hula instruction, music, and entertainment were typically Hawaiian, which is just what we wanted to experience! We took the 3:30 Fern Grotto trip so we could follow it up with the Smith's Family Luau (in the same location). The Luau cuisine was great followed by a spectacular music production professionally presented providing us with a greater understanding of the traditions and heritage of the Polynesian culture. WHAT A SHOW! We recommend BOTH of these for your family and friends. You will not be disappointed!!

Kauai Jurassic ATV Tour at Kipu Ranch - Ultimate Mountain Off-Road Adventure

The Best ATV Tour!

Reviewed by: The Desio's

This was an amazing experience. We went in March with our 9 yr old son. My husband got a 4-wheeler and we got the Rhino. The guides were great, making sure everyone was safe before we got going. If someone was unable to operate safely, they would end up riding with the guides. Everyone in our group was respectful and followed the rules so we were able to get extra riding time. The stops were great, my son loved using the rope swing to jump into the river. The lunch spot was great, there was a kitten and small boars that would eat the left overs. The second waterfall was great, a little cold but worth getting in. We were able to see amazing scenery, the views were spectacular. We took some amazing pictures. This is a tour that you must experience. When we return we will definitely be doing this again. THANK YOU for an amazing experience that we will never forget.

Sacred Falls Adventure - Wailua River Kayak, Hike & Waterfall Swim

Awesome time...

Reviewed by: The Desio's

We had a great time on this tour. It is a 2.5 mile kayak and about a 2 mile hike to a spectacular waterfall. We went in March with our 9 yr old son. These are two person kayaks that you cannot have children in the middle. I ended up pairing up with another mom who came with her family. Our guide was very knowledgeable and able to tell us all about the trees and plants around us and other things along the way. We hiked to the waterfall where we had lunch and able to swim under the waterfall. This is definitely something to try.

We took this tour on our honeymoon in Kauai, and we are so glad that we did. Not only it was fun but also very historical and educational.

Kipu Ranch ATV Tour

Reviewed by: The Boersma Family

This was a fun tour. Very pretty landscape that we rode through. Would have liked a little more time for better picture taking but understand due to the number of people in our group. Being an avid quad rider, the ride was not that challenging but it was fun over all. The guides were very nice and informative and the food was great. We had a party of 8 which included 3 under the age of 10 and they rode in the Rhino with grandpa and I think they had the most fun. The rest of us were on the ATV's. I would go to this ranch again.

This was a really fun experience! Jonathan was our tour guide and since we were the only ones booked that afternoon, it was a really private tour. We snorkeled at Hideaways Beach, which was breathless. The kayaking back was a little tough because we were tired from the snorkeling but we finally made it. I would definitely do it again!

We flew with Bruce a few years ago and had a wonderful flight. I was somewhat apprehensive since I have issuses with panic attacks, he was so kind and reassuring that it made the flight very comfortable. Kaui is such a beautiful island you get a different perspective from the air. We enjoyed Bruce's vast knowledge of Kauai from the air. He even let my husband do a little bit of the flying since he had his private piolts license. We highly recommend

Handicap Access

Reviewed by: Mrs. Harless

The trip was listed as a short, rugged walk, but is handicap accessible. I would have liked this information ahead of time, as walking on concrete is very painful for me, and I would have taken my scooter if I had known there was a paved walk way. I would like to go again sometime, when the ferns have recovered from the damage of the 2006 Hurricane. Cruise was informative, entertaining and fun!

Smith Family Luau

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We enjoyed our experience at the luau. The food was very good and they were very experienced at moving a big crowd through efficiently. It was great having the Hawaiian music during dinner. The show was pretty good. We did enjoy it, but it doesn't quite compare to the show at the Polynesian Cultural Center on Oahu, which is the best. This one was good, and it tried to have different islands represented, but the numbers were all very similar to each other. Loved the fire and volcano and the dragon. It was an enjoyable evening for our family.
