This tour was absolutely wonderful! It was my family’s first visit to Kauai and it was overwhelming seeing all the activities that are available on the island. We settled for this as a way to see a lot of the main sights and it was the PERFECT way to spend the day! We had Kana’e (sp?) as our guide and she was absolutely a joy to spend the day with. She talked stories with us, shared her culture with us and told us all the places to go for our trip! The sights were gorgeous and we recommend this to anyone who is visiting for the first time!!

The tour was at an easy pace and covered the West side of the island concluding with spectacular views and vantage points of Waimea Canyon. Our driver Rosario was thorough with explanations, local trivia, and very personable to everyone. The pickup and drop offs from the hotels were punctual. The lunch was also good as were the local stops in Hanapepe and Waimea. Each stop including those of Waimea Canyon allowed for plenty of time to use the facilities, investigate the area, and take plenty of photos. The tour bus had plenty of space, and was air conditioned and comfortable. I would recommend this tour for any visitors to the Garden Isle!

新型コロナ前に行けた最後のハワイ旅行でカウアイ島のナパリコーストを見るクルーズ行ってきました。
前々日は、Veltraさんで予約したヘリコプターで上から眺めましたが、全く違う表情を見せてくれます。
前日は、車でナパリコーストへ地上から眺めました。
空や山頂からの眺めとは違い、船で下から見上げる切り立った海岸線は迫力満点。途中野生ぽいヤギが崖の上にいたり、虹が見えたり水が滴るところへ船を寄せて水浴びできたり印象的なクルーズでした。最後に美しい夕日を眺めながらの夕食を食べましたが、眺めが素晴らしく夕食の印象は残っていません。
この旅行で一番楽しめたツアーでした。
空に車に船と3回ナパリコーストへ向かい色々な視点から楽しみました。
日本人は、自分たち家族だけで、雰囲気も楽しめました。
We are thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your time on the water with us and hope to see you again soon! Mahalo and Aloha

Our tour guide was one of the best parts of the entire trip. She was so informative and had such a deep love and respect for her island and also for the tourists that are visiting here and falling in love with it as well. She provided us with so much useful information and history to help us appreciate this beautiful place and took us to the best stops along the way to see the amazing canyons!

We had an amazing day!! Enjoyed seeing incredible views of Kauai and learning about the island from our guide Simon. He was friendly, knowledgeable and took care to design the tour around our interests. We saw Waimea canyon and did a short hike with incredible views, it was perfect - and not something we could have done or necessarily known about on our own. Coffee farm and fruit stand stops added by request, the relaxed pace was great. Overall fantastic experience!

We went on a 2 hour kayaking trip. Unfortunately, the hike/sacred falls was cancelled due to inclement weather. It was a bummer, but we know it was for our safety. However, it did hurt a little when we were seeing others continuing to go past the fork in the river. We did get a partial refund. After concluding our kayaking trip, our tour guide Tyler did point us to the Nounou trail to hike which was great. So we were able to fill more of our day on this hike with spectacular views!
Aloha Gina,
Safety is no accident!
When in doubt we don't go out or up the North Fork that constricts and is more prone to flooding as consequence.
Having pioneered the tour we have safely been guiding folks to the falls for the last 37 years while other companies have lost clients in flood like conditions.
We love repeat business and believe "safety is no accident".
Glad to hear that Tyler was able to take curve and make it a plus.
Stay well and safe. Thanks for sharing.
A hui hou,
Micco

My wife was surprised to tears when we arrived in Kauai and she saw a sign with her name on it and a smiling local with a beautiful lei to greet her on arrival. The look on her face was worth ten times the price of the lei. The lei was well constructed and fragrant.

Ty was very patient and informative. We had a great time. The falls are definitely not a secret, got very crowded, I suggest taking the earliest tour possible. I would absolutely do this again!
Aloha Kim,
When we pioneered this tour to the Falls we called it the Secret Falls.
Victim of our own success...it quickly became the best known secret. Now we call it the Sacred Falls and inspite its popularity, as you observed and learned, it is still a terrific way to spend the day.
Thanks for sharing and for 5 star review and photo
Stay paddling and hiking.

This was a quick sightseeing adventure that was worth the cost. The boat trip was relaxing with authentic music one way and informative talk the other way to and from the Fern Grotto. The Fern Grotto is not as impressive as it once was due to storms that have torn away some of the older, longer ferns, but it was still worth the trip.

My best friend and I was visiting Kauai for the first time. We wanted to choose a few excursions that allowed us to see most of the island and learn about the culture/history. This tour was...... AMAZING. Such a beautiful coast. The crew on the boat was more than great & very attentive to all passengers. They were all very knowledgeable about the island, and just overall made the trip fun. The provided lunch was delicious. Aside from the breath taking views of the Na Pali coast, we saw hundreds of spinner dolphins, sea turtles, seals, the forbidden island, and snorkeled. One thing I will say though, if you get motion sick, this is not the tour for you.
Thank you for choosing Holo Holo Charters! We greatly appreciate your kind review.
