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

Smith's Tropical Paradise Garden luau/ & fern grotto boat tour

Reviewed by: Kathleen torres, 2015/03/24

We had a nice time on the river boat cruise and the luau was exceptional. We have been to at least 5 other luaus over the last several years and this was by far the best. The food was great. The entertainment was great and it was very well organized.

The train ride was very nice. Enjoyed seeing the plantation. The show was wonderful. The story behind the show was much better that the traditional Luau show of various dancers.

Blue Hawaiian Helicopters Kauai Eco Adventure Flight from Lihue

FIRST CLASS

Reviewed by: Diane, 2015/03/07

We've visited Kauai at least 6 times and wanted to try a helicopter tour, but thought they were too expensive. We finally decided to do it as a honeymoon splurge. It was incredible and worth every dollar spent. Blue Hawaiian delivers a first class experience from their modern new helicopters to their charming & knowledgable pilots. We will definitely tour with them again next trip to the Islands.

Learn How to Surf - Kauai Surfing School at Poipu Beach

Lots of fun!

Reviewed by: Jeannine, 2015/03/04

My daughter and I had an awesome time learning to surf. I didn't plan on surfing, but my teenage daughter really wanted to and I'm glad I did. The instructor was very nice and enjoyed teaching. I would definitely do it again. The only (small) problem I had was the rocky ocean floor....I got a little scratched up, but it was all worth it! Mahalo!

Blue Hawaiian Helicopters Kauai Eco Adventure Flight from Lihue

Incredible experience, best way to see Kauai's scenery

Reviewed by: Shella, 2015/03/01

Our family of 4 took a tour of Kauai with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters in Feb 2015. We booked the flight a month prior, and were unable to book on our preferred day as they were already booked up, but were able to book on our 2nd choice day. When we checked in, they asked us each to stand on the mat that just looked like a welcome mat, didn't feel like standing on a scale, and they didn't broadcast your weight, it was discreet. The kids are aged 6 and 8 and could easily see out the windows and the pilot Geoff encouraged them to ask questions and interact. I am prone to motion sickness but the ride was smooth and our pilot was experienced put us all at ease. We each had a comfortable seat, about the same size seat as on an airplane, except had a 5 point harness, but was still comfortable. Terrific views and pilot gave good commentary about the island. It was tough to take pictures, reflection on the window, but they take a video of the flight you can purchase that included a camera inside the helicopter, the kids liked seeing themselves in the video. We haven't flown with other helicopter companies, so hard to compare which company is best, but Blue Hawaiian seemed very professional. We did a brief safety video and safety demonstration before the flight and the ground crew was friendly offered to take a picture of our family with the helicpter in the background. It was rather pricey for 4 of us, definitely needed to budget but it was worth it, very exciting and a once in a lifetime experience. If you want to truly see the scenery of Kauai, this is the BEST way.

ヘリコプター遊覧飛行 ワイメア渓谷+ナ・パリ・コースト<英語ガイド/リフエ空港発>

大迫力の景色

Reviewed by: こんも, 2015/02/19

ハネムーンで利用しました。天気にも恵まれ、ナパリコーストの辺りは少し霞んでいましたが全体的に良く見えました。ここでしか出来ない素晴らしい体験だと思います。映画のワンシーンのようでした。2人乗りで申し込んだのですが、実際は6人乗りの前列二席でした。でもパイロットの隣で一番眺めが良い席になり満足でした。ヘリコプターに乗るのは初めてで、50分ほど?のフライトで途中から少々酔いました。元々乗り物酔いし易い体質ですが、比較的体力は必要なツアーかもしれません。(でも欧米人の年配の方も多く参加していました)また搭乗前の注意説明から上空での説明まで、全て英語でおこなわれます。

Waimea Canyon Sightseeing Tour & Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Lunch

Too short time at the scenic spots

Reviewed by: Jesper, 2015/02/09

The Waimea Canyon was the highlight of this tour. The Wailua River and Fern Grotto were decent too (more time there luckily).

On the whole, I thought the tour felt too much like sitting in the bus, and too short time at the scenic spots. We had short stops of a few minutes at some scenic spots. Whereas we got a 20 minute stop at a shopping place, which honestly felt a bit like a waste of time to me when we could have spent that time at other scenic spots. Lunch was 1 hour long, but if a different place would have been chosen, lunch would have been served quicker, and we could have done with less time for lunch too.

On the whole, I feel I didn't see much during this tour, which is a pity. For a tour that has Waimea Canyon in its title, it felt decidingly light on Waimea Canyon.

I can't blame the driver/guide, as he was full of humour and well-spirited. But the tour schedule he had to drive could do with definite improvement I think. (Why not, after the Waimea Canyon lookout, drive further up to the Kalalau Valley lookout while we are in that area?)

One other thing: I got a pickup time of 7.00, but had to wait until 7.40 'til the bus arrived. The driver seemed to be on schedule, so presumably 7.40 was the pickup time communicated to him, but it wasn't communicated to me by the organisation sadly.

I did many great tours during my holiday. This wasn't one of them sadly, although I'm happy I got to see the magnificent Waimea Canyon.

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

Awesome and Passionate

Reviewed by: Kat and Tom, 2015/02/07

This was exciting and passionate! Well choreographed and emotion filled. The Dancers are sexy and in great shape, and very much into their roles! The history is that of many pioneers and reveals all the sorrow and exhilaration of coming to a new land! Hawaii is no different than America and the West, or of Europe and its colonization. The story is fiery in its presentation with several ovations prompted by the force of the dancers, well worth seeing. And the food is excellent. The whole is well organized and amazing!!

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

Excellent Tour.

Reviewed by: Emma, 2015/02/01

We usually choose to avoid the tours in favour of exploring on our own. However, on advice from friends who previously lived in Hawaii, a Luau is an experience not to be missed.
We chose the Fern Grotto River Boat Tour and Smith's Tropical Paradise Garden Luau combination tour with pick up and drop off from our hotel. It proved to be a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon and evening.
The Fern Grotto, despite now missing a large number of ferns after the hurricane, is still a beautiful and tranquil spot to visit.
The highlight of this tour was definitely the Luau though. From start to finish, the service and quality of the show were seamless. The grounds are beautifully manicured and a photographer's delight. The food was delicious and ample in quantity; especially the pork. We were most impressed with how they managed to serve so many people in such an organised fashion. Everything was so very orderly and most visitors were invited to help themselves to second and third helpings. The Mai Tais and Punch were delicious and soft drinks were also readily available.
The show itself was very good and we were highly impressed with the quality of the performance.
Overall, a fabulous tour and highly recommended for all ages.

Waimea Canyon & Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto

Reviewed by: DAV, 2015/01/21

The Guide for the Waimea Canyon tour was excellent. Very informative and enjoyable! The Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto was a total waste of time. The "entertainment" was very, very poor. Back in Florida, a local restaurant has entertainment far superior. Would definitely recommend the Waimea Canyon tour. Would Never have Anything to do with the Wailua river cruise to Fern Grotto with the laughable entertainment. Not interesting or professional enough to keep even the attention of children.

最高のヘリコプターツアー

Reviewed by: emily, 2014/12/24

今回は滞在日数が3日間という短い時間しかありませんでしたので、とにかく限られた時間内でカウアイ島のすべてを楽しもうと思い、初日にまずこのヘリコプターツアーを申し込みました。ツアー会社の方も皆さん陽気でしたが、パイロットのグレッグさんも非常に良い方で、出発前の記念撮影もバッチリOK。ファーストクラスと呼ばれるヘリの前列シートに乗りましたが、ちょっとお高い料金の分はありました。あの険しい山を上がり切った先には深い峡谷、前列シートでは味わえないスリル満点。でも決して恐怖心は出なかったのが不思議です。アッという間の1時間のフライトでしたが、カウアイの島を全景を楽しむことができ、大満足でした。次回はもっと長い時間飛んでみたいと思います。

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

This activity should be discontinued

Reviewed by: Chris , 2014/12/13

The fern grotto is a piece of Hawaiian history. Originally the site of a huge waterfall, before the river was diverted for irrigation, and originally the site of hundreds of ferns, before being battered by cyclones, this place is not what it once was.
It would have been a very impressive tourist attraction in the early 1900s but unfortunately ferns need water to grow and as it is with the river not going through here this place will never be as impressive and at the moment the tourist operators are trying to flog a dead horse.
Unless they divert the river back through here and let the ferns regenerate I would not recommend it. Time to put this activity out to pasture!

I was not particularly excited about this excursion because the fern grotto is all dried up and you can't go in anymore. However the entertainment was great.

I've been to several luaus on different islands and Smiths is my favourite by far. Beautiful property to walk around.

And if you are staying in Kapa'a, transportation is included. Definately a "must do " while you are visiting the beautiful island of Kauai

シダの洞窟観光ツアー ワイメア渓谷&ポイプ潮吹岩&オパエカア滝 <英語ガイド>

カウアイ島 初心者にぜひ☆

Reviewed by: yoko, 2014/11/28

女性1人で参加しました。
元々日本語ツアー希望で申し込んでいたのですが、人数が揃わず不催行となり直前で急遽このツアーに変更しました。(カウアイ島はアメリカ本土やカナダ等からの観光客が多く、滞在中ほとんど日本人に会いませんでした)

当日の参加者は私以外全員英語圏の方で年配のご夫婦や友達同士が多かったです。車内は当然オール英語で、女性ガイド(兼ドライバー)さんが車窓に見える景色や植物、カウアイ島の歴史について、時にジョークを交えながら楽しくお話しして下さいます。ガイドブックや地図を持参するとより理解が深まって楽しめると思います。車の乗り心地も快適で、ウトウトしてしまうほどでした。

全参加者のピックアップを終えると、古き良き風情の残るオールドタウンを抜け、日系人経営のお土産屋さんでトイレ休憩(15分)を取っていざ出発! 途中右手にさとうきび列車(?)が見えたり町並みを楽しんでいると、車は次第に山合いへ。。
ワイメアキャニオンに到着! 目の前に広がる緑と赤土の山々は壮観です‼︎ 空気も澄んでいて清々しい気持ちになります。(…しかしここで30分の自由時間は持て余してしまったので20分あれば十分ですね)

次に訪れたのはカウアイコーヒーショップ。コーヒーの芳ばしい香り漂う店内にはお土産コーナー・カフェ・試飲コーナーがあり、ここは15分では足りずもっとゆっくりしたかったです。

続いてゴルフ場内にあるレストランでランチタイム(40分)。開放的な造りになっているので、青い空と太陽・爽やかな風を感じながらのランチはとても気持ちが良かったです。
メニューはハンバーガーやサンドウィッチ等が中心で、ガイドさんいわく「ココナッツクリームパイ」が美味しいんだとか。ただ、大人数での利用なので早くオーダーしないとなかなか料理が来ません。私はわずか10分しか食べる時間がなく、半分残す羽目になりました…(泣)

続いてポイプの潮吹き岩に立ち寄り(15分)、車はワイルア方面へ。オパエカア滝を見学した後、ワイルア川クルーズ&シダの洞窟へ。カヤックを漕ぐ人々とすれ違いながら遊覧船で川を上って行きます。そして船着場で船を降り、ジャングルの中を少し歩くと森の奥から歌声が。。ハワイアンミュージックの生演奏に迎えられ、シダの洞窟に到着です! 森の中のプライベート空間といった感じで、神秘的な雰囲気に包まれながらミュージシャンとダンサーによるパフォーマンスとちょっとしたセレモニーを楽しみます。帰りの船の中でもパフォーマンスは続き、盛り上がりのうちにフィナーレを迎えます。

このように見所満載のツアーですので、初めてカウアイ島を訪れる方・レンタカーを借りていない方には特におすすめしたいです。
