Kipu Ranch Kauai ATV Tour with Waterfall Swim - Triple Trail Expedition
A must do!!
Reviewed by: GayleBond, 2024/07/20This was a great outing worth every penny. Definitely wear close toed shoes and bring clothes you are okay with getting red dirt Kauaui stained! An extra towel is a good suggestion as well. Water bottle and big spray if you are going to wear shorts.

Smith's Kauai Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Live Entertainment
Budget friendly getaway from the beach (wheelchair/kid friendly)
Reviewed by: JD, 2024/07/18Large boat brings you about 30 mins down river with a tour guide speaking overhead. Our tour guide was very funny and was probably my favorite part of this activity. You’ll disembark at an area with walkways/bathroom through a lush rainforest that eventually ends at an area with a large cliff/cave. APPLY BUG SPRAY! There are lots of mosquitoes in this area.
Here you’ll get a short history of the location as well as some music/hula dancing.
You’ll head back to boat and return with more traditional ukulele music/hula dancing.
Wasn’t a fan of the music myself, but enjoyed the trip overall.
If you aren’t able to do a strenuous hike, wheelchair bound, or have small children this activity is short enough to get a taste of the scenery without the hassle of a rough walking trail.

Sacred Falls Adventure - Wailua River Kayak, Hike & Waterfall Swim
Great experience!
Reviewed by: NA, 2024/07/17I am satisfied with the guides' knowledge and humor. On the way back, the kayak was moving too fast and we returned earlier than planned. It would have been better if the guide had encouraged the participants to paddle more slowly and enjoy the river cruise at a leisurely pace.
Even an 8 year old girl was able to keep up well enough.
Aloha Na,
Sounds like you had a stellar group.
We generally paddle as fast as the slowest person/couple and that usually allows those who are more fleet, to go at a slower pace and take in the scenery.
Thanks for the 5 stars and enjoy that 8 year old; they grow up much too fast.
A hui hou,

Luau Kalamaku at Kilohana Plantation - Polynesian Dinner Show & Fire Knife Dance
A lovely evening!
Reviewed by: L., 2024/07/17Im not sure what we were expecting, but this surely exceeded our expectations! The timing of everything was great, lots to see and do. The food was delicious and the drinks were good. We opted for the train and I would highly recommend- especially if you are with kids. It was a nice easy evening ride through the ranch, farm, and orchards.
The show at the end of the night was also a favorite! Lots of quick paced action and dancing. Got to hang in till the end for the fire dancing!
A lovely way to spend the evening. And a real treat at the end of a trip.

Smith's Kauai Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Live Entertainment
Family friendly entertainment.
Reviewed by: Lisa V, 2024/07/15Nice relaxing ride down the Wailua River with a short, easy walk to the Grotto. Learning about the history of the boats and the area was very special, as well as having the Hawaiian music and dancing on the boat. The pilot was witty and made a couple of cute jokes. Definitely recommend for families or as an alternative for more strenous activities, or just as a nice cool break from the hot days.

Smith's Family Garden Luau - Polynesian & Fire Show, Dinner and Open Bar
Wonderful Family Friendly Luau
Reviewed by: LaRisa Replogle, 2024/06/18We absolutely loved the Smith Family Luau and the show! Upon arrival we were greeted with warm smiles and small shell leis, took a Family photo and hopped on a shuttle for a tour of the grounds. After the shuttle ride was over we were able to walk about the property, feed the birds, and enjoy the gorgeous grounds. The emu Ceremony was wonderful. We especially liked the stories and history told by the host of the Laua and the Polynesian & Fire Dance after the dinner. The dances being performed over the water made it new and exciting for our family. We will definitely be back if we ever get the chance to visit Kauai again. Mahalo.

Kauai Backcountry Adventures Mountain Tubing Tour with Lunch
Very Fun!
Reviewed by: Deb and Daughter, 2024/06/17We really enjoyed this tour. We really appreciated Athens as our guide, he was upbeat, fun and informative! We even learned new things about the sugarcane industry as well as great local places to go after the tour. The tour was really fun and a unique thing to do in Kauai. Make sure you are comfortable with your back sitting in an innertube in the water and going through darkened tunnels in some narrow spaces with a group of people and then sometimes pushing off the wall of the tunnels with your feet and arms. We even had some really little kids about 6 years who enjoyed it. The water was shallow with very small rapids and it was fun and felt very safe at all times, they made sure to have multiple guides watching over us throughout. Highly recommend!

Sacred Falls Adventure - Wailua River Kayak, Hike & Waterfall Swim
Great time!
Reviewed by: Megan , 2024/06/16My husband and I, along with our 19 & 15 year old daughters, thoroughly enjoyed the Sacred Falls adventure. Kayaking up the river was peaceful and beautiful as the river is very calm. The hike was fun with some scrambling over rocks and roots and wading through streams. We enjoyed eating lunch by the waterfall before trekking back. Our guide, Izzy, was fantastic - super easy to be around, very encouraging, and she grave great beach/dining suggestions at the end. We loved it!
Aloha Megan,
Izzy does it again!,,,Continously!
Glad you enjoyed Izzy's show and the paddle and hike to the falls.
A plus when you are under Izzy's "tutelage" she will fill your agenda with alternative activities to avail yourselves of while you stay on our little island.
Thanks for nice review.

Kauai Backcountry Adventures Mountain Tubing Tour with Lunch
Fun Times in Kauai
Reviewed by: Paula, 2024/05/30This was a great adventure - something we have wanted to do for quite a while. The entire experience was well run, very organized, and clear on expectations. Directions to the facility, instructions on what to bring, and the itinerary were specific and clear.
The ride up to the tubing location was fun and Chelsea made the ride interesting with her presentation of the history and landscape of the area and island. Her reverence for the locals was awesome.
The tubing experience itself was as adventure and fun! It was very relaxing. The few times when one might feel a little anxious, the guides were calming in explaining exactly what to do and what to expect.
Upon return, the fresh and homemade items for lunch was tasty and hit the spot after the adventure.
Excellent time!
