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

Great experience!

Reviewed by: NA

I 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,

Micco/Head Guide

Luau Kalamaku at Kilohana Plantation - Polynesian Dinner Show & Fire Knife Dance

A lovely evening!

Reviewed by: L.

Im 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

Nice 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

We 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

We 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

My 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

This 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!

Sacred Falls Tour 5/27

Reviewed by: CN

I loved this tour and would recommend it to anyone coming to Kauai for their 1st or 10th time! This tour is the perfect level of activity with the 2 mile kayak breezing by and the 1.5 mile hike not feeling very strenuous. Izzy was so kind and accommodating towards everyone in our group regardless of our fitness level. She made the tour feel more personalized, which was so special. The waterfall is absolutely beautiful, and words don't do justice to how refreshing the water feels. Izzy also provided our group some recommendations for Farmer's Markets and restaurants on the island, which I will keep in mind for myself and others' future trips!

Aloha CN,

Izzy remains the "Queen of the Wailua" with her tours that are fun and fact filled, while keeping you safe.

Thanks for the 5 stars and hope to see you back at the Sacred/Secret Falls.

Exhilarating Mountain Tubing Adventure in Lihue

Reviewed by: Ryan H.

The 3-Hour Lihue Mountain Tubing Adventure is an absolute must-do in Kauai! The friendly staff got us geared up quickly with helmets and headlamps before we headed up the mountain, where our guide shared intriguing island tales.

Entering the water on our personal tubes, we were immediately swept up by the gentle flow of the historic irrigation canals. The open-air sections offered stunning views of the lush mountains, and the excitement ramped up as we approached the tunnels. The darkness was exhilarating, and our headlamps revealed the fascinating contours of these subterranean passages.

Our guides were terrific, ensuring safety and adding to the fun with their engaging personalities. The adventure wrapped up with a delicious picnic, giving us a chance to chat about our shared experience. This mountain tubing adventure was the highlight of my Kauai visit – an unforgettable mix of natural beauty, history, and thrill.
