Smith's Kauai Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Live Entertainment

Great trip up river

Reviewed by: Brittany, 2024/10/12

Guides were entertaining, knowledgeable, and funny! They shared lots of information about the land, and culture. The boat ride was smooth and relaxing up river, and fun coming back down river. The Grotto is breathtaking! Quick easy hike to and from the grotto.

Kipu Ranch Kauai ATV Tour with Waterfall Swim - Triple Trail Expedition

Rain made better puddles to splash through!

Reviewed by: Brittany, 2024/10/12

So much fun! The views were amazing! My husband was like a kid on Christmas morning driving around in the mud. It down poured right before we left making extra big puddles to splash though. We enjoyed the puddles more than the dust. The guides were fun, engaging, knowledgeable, and made a safe and fun environment. This is very much an off road adventure. If you’re expecting a calm drive through the park, this is not for you.

  • Woo hoo!

Beautiful and relaxing. We had family visiting that couldn’t do a big hike, so this was perfect. The singing was such a nice touch.

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

Fantastic program. The wide range of dances were amazing, beautiful and authentic. The dance from the Phillippines was so cute and eye-catching. The fire shows were incredible, the performers must be super-human.

Kauai Backcountry Adventures Mountain Tubing Tour with Lunch

Awesome float trip!

Reviewed by: Nancy S, 2024/09/18

Hema was our guide and she was so much fun. Not only did she make us laugh and feel comfortable, but also informed us of the history of the sugar cane industry and the history of the island itself.

There was so much information give all while floating down the lazy river. My husband does not like water but really enjoyed this. They provided us croc shoes which were adequate but I wish I had decided to take my own water shoes just for comfort.

Everyone had fun and lunch was enjoyable even for me (celiac). It was something I would suggest everyone do. A moderate amount of fitness is suggested... I am older and a little overweight but had no problem with this tour.

So much fun and thanks to the group we were with. They were all really fun!

Aloha J,

Izzy does it again!

Izzy remains one of the top guides plying the Wailua River on her way to
the falls.

We need Izzy to write a handbook.

Will share your kind words with the champ.

Stay well and active.

Awesome Tubing Adventure

Reviewed by: Steve Sieber, 2024/09/05

The tubing adventure was so much fun. Sophia and team were the perfect guides, Added plenty of history along with a lot of fun conversation. The actual ride takes about an hour and then you have a really nice lunch at the end and then get shuttled back to the main office. Thanks for the great time!

Kauai Backcountry Adventures Mountain Tubing Tour with Lunch

A beautiful day in the water without salt :)

Reviewed by: Lisa D, 2024/08/31

We had a great time on this trip!
It was just what we needed after so much time in the ocean.
Our guide Makana was very nice and knowledgeable about all things Kauai.
Her assistants were very nice as well.
Kauai is a very beautiful island. So lush with greenery and waterfalls.
I told the other people at our condo about our float trip. Hopefully they'll have the same great experience we had.
Lunch was filling and delicious. Good choice of sandwiches!
Makana had everyone sing happy birthday to my son in the last tunnel! Big fun!
By the end of the trip I would say we were all O'Hana.

Fern Grotto

Reviewed by: Michael Thiem, 2024/08/31

This was a great/relaxing experience. Nice cruise up and down the river, good historical information, and easy walk to the grotto. Well worth the time. If you have any problems walking then do not try this. The walk is short but why pay just for a boat ride? This was worth MY time and I would do it again.

Reviewed by: GayleBond, 2024/08/17

Perfect ending to a great vacation. The water was perfect. The guides were amazing. The views were awesome. Lunch was good. Loved the tunnels. 7 miles of lazy river. I could have done this every day of our trip because we enjoyed it so much. Definitely on the ticket to do again if we ever come back.

Kauai Sunset Cruise with Open Bar - Ocean & River Boat Tour from Lihue

fun cruise !! but would have been better with more drink options

Reviewed by: gwendolyn garcia, 2024/08/12

The captain and his 1st mate were excellent. The tour it self was very informative. It was beautiful. The only thing i would suggest maybe was to have a variety of drinks. Not so sweet and sugary. Add some vodka.

Smith's Kauai Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Live Entertainment

Relaxing and delightfully humorous

Reviewed by: Montefam, 2024/08/02

This river boat tour was very relaxing and enjoyable. Our guides were talented, insightful, and had a great sense of humor. The fern grotto was a lovely stroll. The live entertainment set the mood for the rest of our trip. If you are weary about going on this river boat, don’t be, it is a sweet smooth ride. We highly recommend doing this tour while visiting Kauai.

Such a fun, family, event!

Reviewed by: Callie , 2024/07/28

Our family of 9 (all adults) had a fabulous time at this luau. The employees were great. The food was pretty descent (I’ve had some not great food at luaus in the past), but the show was spectacular! The performers were amazing and the flow and diversity of the dances and such were so entertaining. We were completely entertained the whole night.
