Never having been to a luau before, I didn't know what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised by the grounds. It's really pretty and picturesque. The host is always smiling and makes you feel welcomed. With the food being delicious and great entertainment, it was an awesome evening. Worth spending the money.

I think this trip was reasonably priced and you get a variety of things: river, hula performance, and the fern grotto--not a dull moment for this trip.

We had so much fun at the Luau and are going again this month when we get back on the island. It is a must to take advantage of the free pick up and drop off if you don't mind waiting a few extra minutes.

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.

What a great way to experience the Hawaiian culture! We very much enjoyed our dinner as well as the Luau performance after dinner. The dancers were fantastic and we were thoroughly entertained! We would highly recommend the plantation owners dinner for couples as it is a very romantic setting with a staff that made us feel very welcome and appreciated!

Great food and great show. The Smith family really has this show down to a science. Very organized and don't worry, enough food for seconds. The dancers were excellent and as a real man, I appreciated the young women who had some girth.

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!

I've been to other luau's on other islands, but none have been as organized with so much great food and free mai-tai drinks. The dining areas and the seating areas for the show are all covered to protect people from the possibility of rain. The landscape is gorgeous, with so many unique flowers, exotic trees, peacocks, chickens, and zebra doves running around everywhere.

Before the show, my kids enjoyed getting their first Jagua skin art (similar to henna) from a local artist. Some of the show's performers had booths selling jewelry and crafts as well. The drinks were stiff, however, the food was on the mediocre side. The show itself was great and was enjoyed by all. The dancers were very friendly and welcoming. Overall great experience!

Been to Luaus' before, just dancing, music, and food/drink. But this was so enjoyable because of the story they told through the dancing, music and song. Even my husband enjoyed it. Our daughters couldn't get over the fire dance, and the way the dancers engaged audience members through out the show. The food was really tasty, we even enjoyed the Poi with everything. The Plantation grounds were spectacular too. This is on our "To-Do List again in Kauai".

The Smith's Fern Grotto tour was a good way to see the fern grotto and understand some of the history. There was a 20 minute boat ride to the fern grotto landing, time to take pictures, presentation of a Hawaiian Wedding song, complete with hula interruption and demonstration of various hula dances on the boat ride back. All in all - recommended tour.
