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

Ok.

Reviewed by: Deb D, 2019/05/02

Relatively inexpensive way to see some of the river greenery. Appreciated the history/culture narration. Lead entertainer on the way back was funny! Hula ladies don’t really seem into it, you feel like they are just doing a job and don’t necessarily enjoy it, and they seemed tired. Fern grotto a beautiful site.

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

Sacred Falls Kayak and Hike

Reviewed by: Tena, 2019/04/19

We very much enjoyed the kayak and hike to Sacred Falls! Our guide Dustin was outstanding! He shared his knowledge of the area and kept us entertained with his jokes throughout the tour. The hike is muddy so wear shoes you don’t mind getting wet and dirty.
We would definitely do this activity again!

Comments from activity operators

Aloha Tena,

Dustin is on a roll. One out of every 3 honorable mentions this month, has Dustin's name affixed.

That said all our guides I can humbly say, "Do an outstanding job!".

Thanks for warning others about the property shoes to wear.

Stay paddling and hiking.

Thanks again for sharing.

Kauai Backcountry Adventures Mountain Tubing Tour with Lunch

Fun experience!

Reviewed by: Tourists from Oregon, 2019/04/12

We enjoyed the adventure a lot! Tour members were excellent (personable, enthusiastic, informative and accommodating toward everyone of all ages having a fun time). Floating the tunnels is exciting and hearing history of canals is interesting glimpse of past island sugar cane industry elements.Nice lunch to re-energize afterwards.

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

A romantic river rendezvous

Reviewed by: MsTravelGal, 2019/04/10

Wedding ceremonies have been held at the fern grotto for decades. It's a historic and beautiful spot to get married or renew your vows. We didn't know this before arriving but it was a special surprise since my fiance proposed the day before. The cruise to the fern grotto was the perfect way to end our vacation in Kauai. Even if you're not going for a wedding, you'll get to hear and watch Hawaiian singers and musicians perform a traditional Hawaiian wedding song. So whether you're celebrating an engagement, a honeymoon, or 50 years of marriage, this beautiful destination will fill your heart with love. I'm so glad we did this tour!

Kauai Backcountry Adventures Mountain Tubing Tour with Lunch

Loved it!

Reviewed by: Laura & Emma, 2019/04/09

My 5 year old and I did this adventure and had sooooo much fun!!! The tour guides were so nice especially to my daughter. They let her go up front and one made her a fishing pole out of a leaf during lunch. I would definitely do this again with my family. If you’re bringing a camera or GoPro make sure it has a tie on it to your wrist or clothing and a water proof case. We had the best time together!!! Highly recommend.

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

Great Family Fun

Reviewed by: Nevin, 2019/04/07

The Smiths family luau was very well organized. They took care of all the guest and made you feel very welcomed. The food was very delicious and the show was very well done with incredible dancing and special effects. You not only go there to have a good time, but you learn the history of the island and all it has to offer. I would rate this as a Superior experience.

Deluxe Na Pali Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters

Beautiful scenery and Attentive crew--this tour is a must do!

Reviewed by: MsTravelGal, 2019/04/06

This snorkel sail was by far the highlight of our vacation in Kauai. For years I've dreamed of sailing along the Na Pali coast and it was more beautiful than I ever imagined. The emerald cliffs were absolutely breathtaking. Other passengers spotted whales breaching the water nearby but I couldn't take my eyes of the coast. As we began our sail back to the harbor we were accompanied by a pod of dolphins who swam alongside and in front of our boat for several minutes; it was magical.
My fiance's favorite part of the cruise was the snorkeling. We had so much fun swimming in a secluded cove and spotting unique marine life.
I can't leave out the exceptional crew. As we sailed along the coast they pointed out historic sites, popular film locations, famous (and notorious) hikes, and told us about the local wildlife.
We'll relish in the memories of this tour forever!

Sunshine Helicopters Kauai Na Pali Coast Air Tour from Lihue

Truly unique way to see the island

Reviewed by: Kfw, 2019/04/02

All in all, we liked this a lot just because of where you get to go and how close you’re able to fly . Very comfortable ride, excellent pilot but his narration was pretty tired sounding. Luckily , we had learned a lot of the names and stories beforehand so that didn’t bother us much, but it might others.
Their flight video needs an upgrade also- it is tough to get good shots from inside, so we totally would have bought a high quality video had it been available.
Overall 4/5 stars. Helicopters are cool !

Kayak Kauai Hanalei River & Blue Lagoon Kayak & Snorkel Adventure

Rain can't stop a good time.

Reviewed by: Holly P, 2019/03/09

A warm rain fell, off and on during our float up the river, but since we were going to get wet anyhow, it didn't matter. Our guides, Web and Dan, were very attentive and funny. And knowledgeable about what we were seeing along the way.

One thing that was different from our expectation, but didn't matter too much, was that since the road past Hanalei is closed indefinitely due to a storm, the guides had to park and load things in different spots than normal, which added to the walk to the beach.

I would recommend this trip to anyone who likes fun flatwater kayaking, and great snorkeling on the north coast of Kaua'i.

  • Web (Hardy) and Dan (Laurel) our great guides

Comments from activity operators

Aloha Holly,

Thanks for your nice review. You were the beneficiary of our "dream team" , i.e. Web and Dan who also guide our all day sea kayak tour along Na Pali coast during the summer.

Thanks for warning others that, due to last years flood, has forced us to take a 1/4 mile walk along beautiful Hanale Bay.

Sometime in the next few months we are told that the road to the river mouth, where we generally launch, will be open once again.d

Thanks again for taking the time to share with others.

The Hanalei River and Bay has to be one of the more beautiful places on the planet.

A hui hou,

Micco

ヘリコプター遊覧飛行 ワイメア渓谷+ナ・パリ・コースト

Reviewed by: N.Y, 2019/03/06

家族三人で参加致しました。ヘリコプターに乗るのは初めてで少し緊張しました。でも無駄にゆれることもなく、恐怖心もすぐになくなりました。
英語はできないので、ガイドさんの説明は理解できませんでしたが それでも
目の前に広がる景色は絶景で、あまりにもきれいで逆に作り物のような気までしてきます。こんなに美しい空と海と緑、大地の景色の中に溶け込むように見ることが出来て素晴らしい体験でした。おススメします!
時間のリクエストは14時にしましたが、朝一番早い時間の参加でした。でも
結果そのあとの行動がしやすくてよかったです。ツアーが終わってからレンタカーでワイメアキャニオンに行くことが出来ました。空と陸からと一日で二度おいしい的な過ごし方が出来ました。

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

Best Part if our trip!

Reviewed by: Pilar Abalos, 2019/02/27

We got to kayak down the Wailua River. Jay our guide was amazing. He told us about historical information about the beautiful island of Kauai and it’s history. Our hike to the waterfall was deep in the interior and he pointed out plants and trees and gave us history and background about them. He was patient and very friendly. Our swim in the falls was something on my bucket list and was definitely what I was expecting and more! Thank you to Jay and everyone at Kayak Kauai!

Aloha Pilar,

Glad to hear that not only that Jay did a great job guiding but that he help lighten "your bucket".

Keep filling up that bucket and thanks for letting others know what a good job Jay is doing; we are very
fortunate to have him on board.

Kauai Backcountry Adventures Mountain Tubing Tour with Lunch

Flume Float Fun

Reviewed by: Leslie, 2019/02/24

The eight year old who still lives in this 60-year-old heart of mine adored the whole adventure. Not because it was simple, but because we got to have an experience floating down an irrigation flume through tunnels and exotic beauty. It felt a little bit like we were getting away with something. Also, our guides - Cody and Justin - were funny and friendly and kept us perfectly safe the whole time. My advice is to go in the morning so you get in on the picnic at the end of the adventure. A beautiful setting in which to rest and refresh.

The tour itself was great because the island is filled with breathtaking land formation.

However, since the tour operator didn't tell us how to adjust the headphone's volume, I had no idea about how to stop the pilot's extremely loud voice thoroughout the flight. I had to keep wearing the headphone cut to the Cooper's loud rotator.

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>

とってもエキサイティングな大空散歩でした!

Reviewed by: ボゴです!, 2019/02/15

集合場所はショッピングセンターにあるので、レンタカーで行っても無料で駐車しておけます。
私はリフエのマリオットに泊まってたので、ビーチ沿いに徒歩3分でした。
集合場所ではバウチャーを見せて、そのあと、その場で体重計に乗ります。(体重計の数字はスタッフ側にしか見えないので安心して下さい)
それによって座席の位置が決まるようです。
ヘリコプターに乗ってしまえば、あとは空からの眺めを楽しむだけですが、白い服やアクセサリーや腕時計なんかも日差しに反射してガラス窓に映るので、写真やビデオ撮影の邪魔になりますので、黒いシャツを着て行くのをオススメします。
