Sacred Falls Adventure - Wailua River Kayak, Hike & Waterfall Swim
Kayaking Only
Reviewed by: Gina M., 2021/07/07We went on a 2 hour kayaking trip. Unfortunately, the hike/sacred falls was cancelled due to inclement weather. It was a bummer, but we know it was for our safety. However, it did hurt a little when we were seeing others continuing to go past the fork in the river. We did get a partial refund. After concluding our kayaking trip, our tour guide Tyler did point us to the Nounou trail to hike which was great. So we were able to fill more of our day on this hike with spectacular views!

Mahalo for taking the time out of your vacation to join our family at the luau. Keeping our culture alive for future generations is an important aspect of our family business. We have some hope that the next generation will want to continue the tradition. Aloha...

Sacred Falls Adventure - Wailua River Kayak, Hike & Waterfall Swim
Worth the work!
Reviewed by: Kim H, 2021/06/24Ty was very patient and informative. We had a great time. The falls are definitely not a secret, got very crowded, I suggest taking the earliest tour possible. I would absolutely do this again!
Aloha Kim,
When we pioneered this tour to the Falls we called it the Secret Falls.
Victim of our own success...it quickly became the best known secret. Now we call it the Sacred Falls and inspite its popularity, as you observed and learned, it is still a terrific way to spend the day.
Thanks for sharing and for 5 star review and photo
Stay paddling and hiking.
A hui hou,
Micco

Smith's Kauai Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Live Entertainment
An Inexpensive and Fun Time
Reviewed by: Cookie , 2021/06/17This was a quick sightseeing adventure that was worth the cost. The boat trip was relaxing with authentic music one way and informative talk the other way to and from the Fern Grotto. The Fern Grotto is not as impressive as it once was due to storms that have torn away some of the older, longer ferns, but it was still worth the trip.

Lehua Crater & Na Pali Coast Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast, Lunch & Drinks
What an awesome day!
Reviewed by: Savannah Simco, 2021/06/15My best friend and I was visiting Kauai for the first time. We wanted to choose a few excursions that allowed us to see most of the island and learn about the culture/history. This tour was...... AMAZING. Such a beautiful coast. The crew on the boat was more than great & very attentive to all passengers. They were all very knowledgeable about the island, and just overall made the trip fun. The provided lunch was delicious. Aside from the breath taking views of the Na Pali coast, we saw hundreds of spinner dolphins, sea turtles, seals, the forbidden island, and snorkeled. One thing I will say though, if you get motion sick, this is not the tour for you.
Thank you for choosing Holo Holo Charters! We greatly appreciate your kind review.

Reviewed by: Natalie , 2021/06/13We were so close to missing this tour and am beyond glad we made it. The water was so refreshing, and the mix of calm and exciting flow was perfect. I can’t say enough how much I appreciated out guide Damion. He was patient, welcoming, helpful, offered local tips, and kept the entire adventure fun from start to finish. The lunch was great as well, and in a beautiful spot. Pictures taken throughout and available for purchase. All around a wonderful tour. Highly recommend!

Great trip
Reviewed by: Lee T, 2021/06/08A good variety of activities with kayaking, hiking and the waterfall/swimming.
Aloha Lee,
Thanks for the 5 hokus/stars.
Feel our Wailua River Paddle and Hike is a nice combination of upper and lower body.
By the time your arms might be getting tired from paddling you are hitting the trail and working the legs to get to the falls.
Stay active and thanks for taking the time to share.

Secret Kauai Waimea Canyon & Coastlines Private Island Tour with Optional Hike
Amazing tour and exactly what we were looking for.
Reviewed by: Anurag, 2021/06/06Had a wonderful private tour of the main attractions of the island. Simon was amazing and made the tour an absolute joy for us. We were looking for something with a pick up and drop off, as we could not manage to snag a rental car and this was perfect. Learnt a lot about the history and culture of the island as we drove around the different parts. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a lovely, laid-back and well informed tour of the island with a great guide.

Sacred Falls Adventure - Wailua River Kayak, Hike & Waterfall Swim
Fantastic way to spend a half day in Kauai
Reviewed by: Halls, 2021/05/15Dustin was amazing. He was very patient and helpful in teaching everyone how to kayak. The hike was challenging through streams, rocks and mud but Dustin made sure everyone was safe and knew what to do. It is definitely a tour I would do again. The waterfall was beautiful. We learned a lot about Kauai history and the plants and trees we saw along the way.
Aloha Halls,
Thanks for letting us know that Dustin continues to "rock". Isn't it great to traverse a beautiful area like the Wailua River and appreciate its cultural and natural history.
We all fortunate to have Dustin share his knowledge, patience and brand of Aloha,
Thanks again for your kinds words.

Sacred Falls Adventure - Wailua River Kayak, Hike & Waterfall Swim
Kauai Kayak - the best
Reviewed by: Mary SantaFe, 2021/03/05I did a mid week kayak trip with Kauai Kayak. Instructor was excellent, gear provided was in good shape, and the lunch was fresh and delicious. The walk portion described as “along the river bank” was challenging as we walked over large river rock and then through streams, boulders, and mud to reach the falls. The company provides an excellent trip and I would easily recommend them to anyone interested in a fun and challenging half day.
Aloha Mary, Thanks for taking the time and sharing with others your impressions of our Wailua River Sacred Falls paddle & hike. We try to do a good job and have managed to retain staff through this pandemic. Thanks for making it possible and helping share the salutary and beautiful Kaua'i outdoors. Stay well...and outdoors.

Aloha Gina,
Safety is no accident!
When in doubt we don't go out or up the North Fork that constricts and is more prone to flooding as consequence.
Having pioneered the tour we have safely been guiding folks to the falls for the last 37 years while other companies have lost clients in flood like conditions.
We love repeat business and believe "safety is no accident".
Glad to hear that Tyler was able to take curve and make it a plus.
Stay well and safe. Thanks for sharing.
A hui hou,
Micco
