Kauai Backcountry Adventures Mountain Tubing Tour with Lunch
Fun Family Activity - great guides
Reviewed by: kAT
We had a great time on this tour! For our group of 18ish people we had three guides that were constantly working hard to make sure we were having a good time, and being safe. This is not white water rafting- this is a float tube trip. So if you are expecting rapids and fast action, this is not it. We read several negative reviews regarding cancellations due to rain. Yep. I get it. It sucks. But there are points where you are traveling in tunnels, and if it rained too much - you won’t fit in the tunnel. Rain = higher water. We read other reviews about being separated from your party- yep- it happens, but if you ask any of the guides, they will help you join your friends. Our family had a really nice time.

We appreciated the ride up to view the grotto, which everyone visiting Kaua’i should see. The best part was the music! Made me thirsty!
I highly recommend the Smith boat ride without reservation.

Great Experience
Reviewed by: Jlt
This was an excellent way to explore the ocean without having experience in scuba diving. Kevin was patient, informative, and an overall great guide. My only advice is to consider the excursion before committing. The water can be a bit rough and there is a good deal of information to consider. My wife backed out at the last minute but she was also on the fence about going in the first place. My 15 and 11 year old had a great time as did I.

Sacred Falls Adventure - Wailua River Kayak, Hike & Waterfall Swim
BEST DAY EVER!
Reviewed by: Renee
A beautiful, unique, and memorable experience. The guide was friendly and helpful, everyone was able to paddle up the river at their own pace, the river is lined with greenery, but the real treats were the hike along a gorgeous trail with amazing foliage and, of course, the waterfall. Swimming in the pool at the base of the waterfall and looking up at the water pouring over the cliff is an experience like no other. I went with my teenage daughter on a beautiful sunny day. There were no significant recent rains, so the trail was not muddy or slippery and the hike wasn't strenuous at all. I highly recommend this tour!

Breath Taking
Reviewed by: Elizabeth Langston
Beautiful sights! As we saw the sights he explained what we were seeing. Loved seeing the place they filmed Jurassic World and the history of the families that have lived there for generations. Very comfortable ride and we could ask questions as we went along. Highly recommend this company. They show you a safety video before which is informative. The company is very serious about safety. Also loved the video they took while we were flying which we bought for a very reasonable price. Wouldn’t fly with any other company.

This was an amazing tour!!! A first for us both and would do it again in a heartbeat!!! We had Guy as our pilot and he was amazing!! He knew so much about the island we had a hard time finding questions to ask. This is a must when you come to Kauai. This company is great as well. The only thing that happened was our video didn't get us landing but the staff did discount our video and I had videotaped our landing so we did get a bit of it though. We went with another couple ad they enjoyed it as well.

Money well-spent!
Reviewed by: DeHartPDX
This was an amazing tour of he Napali Coast. The crew was phenomenal! They were so personable and knowledgeable. They were very attentive to our kids and kept everyone engaged and excited. The captain steered the boat with precision allowing us to get into small cave openings and over large waves.
Bring non-spray sunscreen and a hat that won’t blow off since it gets very windy. We took motion sickness pills prior to the trip which really helped.
The views were breathtaking! Highly recommend.

Smith's Family Garden Luau - Polynesian & Fire Show, Dinner and Open Bar
Smith Family Garden Luau with a Toddler
Reviewed by: Patty
This was a good experience all the way around! Ordering tickets was easy through Veltra. Check in was seamless.
The 10 min tram ride around the beautiful grounds was just long enough to give an overview of the area but not so long that a 3 year old would get bored. They allowed time before dinner to walk around and get the wiggles out. The food was good and they even marked the gluten free dishes. There was another break before the show to run around and use the restrooms (even had a golf cart to transport there & back). The acts were exciting enough, and short enough to keep the toddler entertained and the fire dancer was great! Only drawbacks: cell service almost non-existent (hard to connect with late arrivers), lots of waiting to get in because of the photo line-maybe do it after tram ride).

This adventure was all that we read on-line....and more!! We came into Lihue on a cruise and chose to do the tubing adventure. Our guides, BJ and Poncho, made this experience even better....comical, informative, safe and most of all, fun!! Service while checking in was fast and friendly. During the ride up to the start of the tubing on the irrigation ditch, BJ provided insite into the history of the sugar plantation and creation of the ditch, pointed out areas of interest. We stopped for photo opp and then into the water on our tubes. This was a great experience, fun traveling through the tunnels and never felt unsafe. Our group loved this!!
