Smith's Kauai Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Live Entertainment
Great outing.
Reviewed by: Robert S
The river cruise to the fern grotto was a lot of fun. The local info shared was insightful and gave us several other sites to see. The entertainment was well done and fun. The walk up to the grotto was beautiful! All in all, a great outing that was a lot of fun.

シダの洞窟観光ツアー ワイメア渓谷＆ポイプ潮吹岩＆オパエカア滝 ＜英語ガイド＞
効率よく観光
Reviewed by: みれたか
初めてのカウアイ島でレンタカーするのは自信がなかったので、こちらのツアーを申し込みました。 １日で行きたい観光地を回れてとてもよかったです。 ガイドさんはよく説明してくれましたが、英語なのでわかりませんでした。 集合時間をおさえておけばゆったりなツアーなので、英語がわからなくても問題ありませんでした。 カウアイ島の交通事情がよくわからなかったのですが、ゴルフ場やマーケットにはウーバーで問題なく行くことができました。

Sacred Falls Adventure - Wailua River Kayak, Hike & Waterfall Swim
Core memories made!
Reviewed by: Tingeys
This kayaking and hiking adventure was so awesome! I was worried the kayaking and hike might be difficult but it was perfect! I’ve never been kayaking before and this was a great intro for me! The hike was absolutely beautiful as well and mostly on a board walk which is nice so you’re not having to climb through or slip in the mud. The waterfall was a tad dried up but still so
beautiful and fun to swim to. Our guide Jeff was awesome as well. Very kind and friendly and knowledgeable about Kauai. I would HIGHLY recommend the is excursion and would love to do it again!
Aloha Tingey,
Your guide Jeffrey will be happy to know that you enjoyed the paddle and hike to the falls.
For most the learning curve for paddling a kayak is fast, but then there are some….
Anyway, come back and hopefully the waterfall will be primed and gushing (we have had a dry winter so far)
Thanks for taking the time to share.
A hui hou,
Micco/Head Guide

シダの洞窟観光ツアー ワイメア渓谷＆ポイプ潮吹岩＆オパエカア滝 ＜英語ガイド＞
見どころを１日で効率よく回れました
Reviewed by: Rosa
ホノルルから日帰りで参加。初めてのカウアイ島だったので、取り敢えず有名な見どころを１日で回りたくて参加しました。２０人の参加者のうち私を含めて７名がホノルルからの日帰りでした。見どころ各所で充分な時間がありゆっくりと見学できたのが良かったです。ランチタイムもゆっくりできました。最後に事故渋滞で時間が掛かり帰りのフライトに間に合うかどうかハラハラしましたが、ガイドさんが本社？の人とやり取りしながら、もし万が一乗り遅れても次のフライトに乗れるように航空会社にも頼んでいるので大丈夫ですよと言ってくれたのがありがたかったです。道路の渋滞状況、バスの現在地などを会社でモニターしているとのことでした。細かいところまで気を配りながらきちんとオペレーションしている会社のようで安心です。

カウアイ島1日ツアー ワイメアキャニオン観光＆コケエ州立公園ハイキング＆コーヒー農園 ＜英語ドライバーガイド＞
初めてのカウアイ島 楽しかったです
Reviewed by: どんうぉん
ワイメア渓谷は展望台から全体がよく見えました。
観光用のバスは快適でガイドさんもビデオや効果音を使ったりして トークも楽しかったです。
ただ一つ改善点があるとすれば当日朝のお迎えの時間連絡です。連絡時間よりも30分遅くなったため 心配していました。
こちらも固定電話に連絡しましたが通じなかったです。
車内はエアコンが効いている事もあり羽織ものがあった方がよいかもです。

Excellent time!
Reviewed by: Mack
Although the swell was big the couple days before, the snuba tour was great. We saw lots of fish, invertebrates and saw some pretty corals. Glad I bought a case for my phone so I could capture everything we saw. This was our son’s first exposure to snuba and he loved it. Now wants to get scuba certified. Doug and Josh were great guides! Would definitely do it again!

Secret Kauai Waimea Canyon & Coastlines Private Island Tour with Optional Hike
Sean is the best tour guide we've ever had!!!
Reviewed by: Mann Ohana
My family (wife and 2 daughters, ages 9 & 11) ands I had an absolutely amazing day with Sean touring the west side of Kauai!! We went into the Waimea Canyon and also spent time in Hanapepe, the Kauai Coffee Plantation, the Warehouse for lunch (and shopping...), and even met some friendly chickens (Sean's friends) and enormous sea turtles on Poipu beach! A truly amazing day, all thanks to Sean! He is not only incredibly knowledgable about all things Hawaii (and especially Kauai), but he was a total pleasure to be with and chat with, and he catered to our every need (timing, logistics, tour, drinks/snacks, pics, bathroom breaks, etc.). We definitely look forward to seeing Sean again to tour the rest of the island and will for sure recommend him to everyone we know!! Mahalo!

Sacred Falls Adventure - Wailua River Kayak, Hike & Waterfall Swim
Awesome Experience/Thank you Jeffrey
Reviewed by: Barbie n Ken
This was one of the best (if not THE best) Hawaii adventure we've been on yet. Paddling and steering the kayak was definitely difficult for us older newbies, but we were able to figure it out and not capsize.
Our guide Jeffrey was very experienced and showed great patience with the group; we felt like he was one of the reasons we enjoyed the experience so much.
Thanks again for the memories...
The hiking trail is very slippery at times, we recommend comfortable shoes with some grip.
Aloha Barbie n Ken,
Wow! "The best" Hawaii adventure? Will if truth be told we really…really try to put on a good show we are never as good as our guides who are hand picked and give 100%+
Jeff is the consummate guide and has raised the bar and is a real pro.
Lastly, thanks for advising folks that the trail to paradise can be slippery.
A hui hou,

Private Kauai Doors On & Off Na Pali Coast Air Tour - Mauna Loa Helicopter
Reaching for new heights
Reviewed by: KelseyEric
My husband, Eric, and I were excited to ride in a helicotper ride while on our honeymoon. It was a first time adventure for either of us as we had never 1) been to Hawaii before and 2) ridden a helicopter before. The adventure happened early in the day, and we enjoyed some beautiful sites. I particularly enjoyed seeing the beautiful clear water of the ocean and the rust colored Waimea Canyon.
Mahalo for sharing your wonderful experience! We're thrilled to hear that you and Eric had an unforgettable helicopter ride during your honeymoon. It's fantastic that you got to explore Hawaii for the first time together, and we couldn't agree more about the breathtaking views.
The clear blue waters and the stunning rust-colored Waimea Canyon truly are sights to behold! We're so glad you enjoyed the early morning adventure and the beautiful sights that Kauai has to offer. Your enthusiasm is contagious, and we hope this is just the beginning of many more adventures together.
Thank you for choosing us to be a part of your special memories, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for your next Hawaiian adventure!

3.5-Hour Kauai Napali Sunset Dinner Cruise with Open Bar - Holo Holo Charters
Dinner cruise in November
Reviewed by: Robi
The water was rough, lots of big swells, people were throwing up over the side or in the bathroom, some laid on the benches in the cabin area. Food was not anything fancy but the crew members were very nice, we have been on some very high end dinner cruises and felt disappointed in this one. Shame that so many people didn't eat at all or very little and trying to drink anything was a mission due to the swells. I did take some breathtaking pictures of the sunset, thankfully I took motion sickness medicine.
If the water is that rough offer a refund or reschedule.

Liko Kauai Snorkel Cruises - Na Pali Coast Boat Tour & Sea Cave Adventure
The views were amazing!
Reviewed by: Johnson Family
The boat ride was great- seeing the Na Pali coast from the Pacific was incredible. The tour guide was a fantastic guide, sharing stories about the history of Kaua’i , including her connections through her great grandparents. Learning about the land and history over time made a lasting impression. Hearing about the connections to movie settings was also cool. We encountered spinner dolphin pod and it was exciting to see so many surfacing and putting on a show. The snorkeling was Awesome, it was great how the boat had a specific location to secure to that was near the reef. Snorkeling was very organized and I felt safe. We saw many colored fish and even a sea turtle.
I appreciated the introduction before we started the tour and the guidance if we felt seasick. I was unfortunately one who experienced sea sickness about halfway through the trip, where we encountered the roughest water. The crew was compassionate and offered comforts. I felt better as we headed toward calmer waters and snorkeling location and was able to enjoy the snorkeling.
We had 5 in our traveling party and all were very impressed with the sights-totally worth it!
The morning tour was great! Heed the recommendation for motion sickness precautions.
