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

Untitled

Reviewed by: bushes

First I would recommend paying the extra $5 to go into the Gardens early. You will want to spend more time looking around than the time after the tram ride permits since it is so beautiful. The welcome was great and the tram ride was a treat and the setting for the dancing was gorgeous. I've never been to a luau before so I don't know how it compares to others, but we thouroughly enjoyed it. The dinner portion felt like a wedding reception and it was fun to have an opportunity to learn the hula.

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

Great Service

Reviewed by: Cathi

The people who run Smith's are GREAT! They are very thoughtful and they make the whole night worth it. The servers went out of their way to help us with my husband's disability issues. They have great food and plenty of it! You will not go away hungry. The show was teriffic.
We were very happy that we went and will go back another time in the future. If you have a large party you can reserve your table space in advance.

Kipu Safari Adventure - Zipline, Hike, Kayak & Waterfall Swim with Lunch

Great trip

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Overall this was a great trip. It would have been a little nicer to have a slightly smaller group (we had 20 people and they told us it was one of the largest they had ever done), but otherwise excellent.
Staff was super friendly and knowledgeable and it was a LOT of fun!

The boat tour was more than we expected. The dancer was talented. The entertainment and wedding song were lovely. The garden around the Grotto was lush. And it came with a nice price tag as well. I would recommend this to anyone.

Kauai Backcountry Adventures Mountain Tubing Tour with Lunch

Tubing was a blast!

Reviewed by: J.Christy

This was our second trip to Kauai and my wife and I were married on Hanalei Bay. We were looking for something new and exciting and decided to try the mountain tubing adventure. It was the best time, more fun than a water park ride! We would bounce off the walls and spin around and at times splash down a drop- off and get wet. Going through the hand dug tunnels was an experience, especially when we turned the lights off on our helmets. We had a blast and would definitely recommend this activity to anyone. It was very safe and the guides were informative. Lunch was good but the swimming area did not look too inviting for swimming, in November the water was cold.
Overall a must for anyone who visits Kauai.

Smith's Luau & Fern Grotto Tour

Reviewed by: Betty Kaszula

The Smith's Luau is the best on Kauai. They have lovely grounds to tour, the emu ceremony is great. We have been to this before and I would recommend it to everyone. The tour up the river to the Fern Grotto was great. The people running these tours are well versed in the history and knowledge they share with guests. They make everyone feel special!

This is the first time we took the boat trip up the river. I was impressed with the family involvement in every aspect of the luau and boat tour. They are very gracious people and must answer the same questions thousands of times yet they show an interest each time to make everyone feel special and not like some

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

secret falls kayak and hike

Reviewed by: Virg

Josh was a great guide. He was very patient with our lack of skills with a kayak and he provided a lot of interesting information about the area, vegetation and history, etc. We were the only participants on our tour and we felt like we had our own personal guide. The kayak was top quality and even had a rudder to help with controlling the vessel as we rowed.

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.

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!!

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.
