Wailua River Kayak, Rainforest Hike & Waterfall Swim Adventure with Lunch
Muddy trek
Reviewed by: newbie to scuba
We kayaked and then hiked to the waterfall where we ate lunch.
The only bad part was that it had been raining the past few days and the road was muddy. My shoes were completely muddy and others chose to just walk bare feet in the muddy road. I think I will stay with beach activities since I can hike the Shenandoah back home. FYI- There were roosters and chickens even at the waterfall.

Wailua River Kayak, Rainforest Hike & Waterfall Swim Adventure with Lunch
The hike into hell
Reviewed by: JnJtucson
This excursion should never have happened. The first part, the paddle upriver was fine, but that's where the fun stopped. Due to the recent rain activity, the normally treacherous, 2 foot wide path to the falls was turned into a muddy,ankle busting,obstacle course. Even when it is dry, this path is just barely navigable. Several people on our tour fell down and slipped into the mud,which pretty much covered the trail. We had to cross the river a couple of times, which normally would have been a fun experience, but it turned into a survival contest for many of us. Once we got to the falls, there was nowhere to sit comfortably to eat the lunch, which we had to backpack in from the kayaks. There are rocks all around the pool formed by the falls, but you have to pick your way through them, holding on to something all the way. While the falls is cute and right out of a Hollywood TV show, it is, in my estimation, not worth the trouble and cost to see it. I suggest that this trip be left to younger, childless couples in their 20,s or 30,s, if they really need to pick their way through tree roots and rocks for 2 miles. If you have youngsters, think again about this trip. If you're over 50, forgetaboutit!!
The guide was great and tried to help as much as possible, but I think he should have called off the trip due to the rains. Someone should have gone up the trail early enough to warn everyone of the conditions. Had there been another way down from the falls, I would have paid anything not to go back through the muddy hell that we endured on the way up. I guess that some tourist companies will do anything for money, especailly when it is ours. I cannot recommend this activity to anyone until the path is fixed. This activity should be labeled "moderate to hard". Lastly, should you think that this is the raving of a wimp, I am a former Special Forces, Vietnam vet who has slogged through the worst jungles in the world and survived. This one gave me a good test.

Smith's Family Garden Luau - Polynesian & Fire Show, Dinner and Open Bar
best food
Reviewed by: Calimom
Tour and food were spectacular! Our teen said the teriyaki beef was the best thing ever.
The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because of the length of the dancing show. The show is after the all you can eat buffet. Full bellies and tranquil music made us so sleepy! We had plans to go shoot pool afterwards, but scrapped those plans to sleep.

We signed up as a newly married couple after attempting surfing many times with "veteran" friends. We didn't have high hopes for ourselves, but Kyle was able to get both of us up and surfing in no time. He was friendly and set us at ease, very attentive, and had a great method for instructing.

This was a great tour because it covered three (3) sports in one (1) tour. Our tour guide Jamie was very good in all respects. I would just say be prepared to get a workout. For those that don't exercise, you might want to consider something else. You don't have to be a marathon runner, but if you are a couch potato this might be a stretch for you.

カウアイ島 マウンテン・チューブ・アドベンチャーツアー 浮き輪に乗って大自然の中を川下り＜英語ガイド／昼食付き／リフエ地区＞
楽しかった！でも英語が分からないと難しいかも。
Reviewed by: サリー
以前、カウアイ島を紹介するＴＶ番組で「サトウキビ畑の旧用水路をチューブで流れる」というシーンを見てから、カウアイ島に行くならばこのツアーに参加したいと思っていました。なお、ツアーはすべて英語ですので、ある程度英語が理解出来ないとキツイと思います（日本人は私たち夫婦のみでした）。以下はツアーの流れです。
１）ツアー開始時間の30分前に集合です。送迎はありません。私たちはレンタカーで移動をしましたが、ホテルのあるポイプ地区からは意外と遠く、10分ほど遅刻をしてしまいました。
２）事務所に集合をすると、まずは誓約書が渡されます。両面、かつすべて英語ですが、表面は「参加に際しては自己責任です」といった内容、裏面は「45分間水に入っていても大丈夫」「15分間暗い所に入っても大丈夫」といった確認項目がいくつか書いてありました。
３）誓約書が書き終わったら体重を量ります。チューブのサイズを決めるようです。
４)その後、ヘルメットと手袋を受け取ります。
ここまでが事務所での手続きです。この後バンに乗ってポイントに移動します。私たちの時は参加者は20名ほどで、2台のバンに分かれて行きました。車内ではカウアイ島やサトウキビ畑の歴史を説明してくれたり、自己紹介を行ったりしました。また、途中、景色の良い所で写真ストップをしますので、バンでの移動時間は30分ほどだったと思います。
ポイントに到着したら、簡単な注意事項を聞き、その後約45分かけてチューブで浮かびながら用水路を流れていきます。インストラクターの方もいますし、水の流れに身を任せるだけです。
ツアーが終了したら再びバンに乗り、今度はランチスポットに移動をします。ランチはピタパンサンド、ポテチ、クッキー、水など。ランチを食べ終わったら、バンで事務所まで戻り、そのまま解散となります。
参加をされる際、水は冷ためですので、上にＴシャツなどを着ていた方がいいと思います。また、当たり前ですが、チューブで浮かんでいる間はトイレがありませんので、移動前に必ず事務所で済ませて下さい（お尻はだいぶ冷えました）。ランチスポットには簡易トイレが設置されています。
自然も満喫出来ますし、カウアイ島に行かれた際はぜひみなさんもチャレンジしてみて下さいね！

I cannot begin to express how amazing our Snuba experience was. The instructor was super friendly and you could tell he loved doing what he does. He was more than accommodating to questions and made sure you understood and had a wonderful experience. The dive itself was great. There were so many beautiful creatures to see. The only thing I would change is to have been out there longer! If you are debating on whether to do this or another activity, I would strongly recommend this one over anything else Kauai has to offer!

Reviewed by: Mamick
This was really a fun and beautiful experience. Jessie was our guide, and he did a wonderful job. We were late starting, but that was because in the group prior to us he had a blind man and two elderly. It shows his patience that these three were able to complete this adventure. Let me state this is not for those who are not moderate to fit. The paddle can be tough if the wind is blowing (which it normally is). And the hike is beautiful (but can be muddy and you have to watch your step). We would highly recommend this trip for those up for the adventure. Again, Jessie is your man! It is beautiful, he is knowledgeable, and it was very fun!

Blue Hawaiian Helicopters Kauai Eco Adventure Flight from Lihue
Smooth flying & beautiful views!!
Reviewed by: Cinemabyte
The flight is incredibly smooth, and the pilot will take you to see over 30% of the island that you will not be able to see otherwise. They'll take you through the canyons and you'll see the major waterfalls. We flew into the old crater, and it was just amazing! The pilot was very informative and pleasant to listen to, as he gave some history of the island. He'll even turn the bird so both sides of the passengers, left and right, may take photos. It's a MUST and well worth the cost!

Kauai Backcountry Adventures Mountain Tubing Tour with Lunch
Fun and INVIGORATING!!
Reviewed by: Jeannie E.
Wasn't really sure what to expect even though I read good reviews. We had teens and I worried this would be a lazy river float. It wasn't! Don't get me wrong, it wasn't rapids either. But it was a lot of fun. You float, but you also spin and the tunnels are really something. I'm claustrophobic and worried about the tunnels, but with the headlamp provided and everyone moving along, it was not scary, not even for young children. The guides were terrific at making sure you have a good time, but also know when enough is enough...meaning they asked about claustrophobia and when I told them yes, they did not jump out to scare me in the tunnels. Although I would have been ok with that!
