Kayak Kauai Hanalei River & Blue Lagoon Kayak & Snorkel Adventure

Spectacular adventure!!!

Reviewed by: MarkFlannery, 2018/02/12

Our daughter bought us this trip for our 30th wedding anniversary. We then added four of our good friends that we came with. Kayaking up and down the river was amazing, and on into the ocean. Our snorkeling adventure was awesome, as we saw a Sea Turtle and beautiful fish! Lunch was delicious too! Lisa and Steve did a great job! We were especially grateful for Lisa sharing her expansive knowledge of nature, surfing, and the Hawaiian culture! She was super accommodating taking pictures and setting up lunch! Many thanks!!!

  • What a great way to experience Kauai!!

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>

絶景でした

Reviewed by: 初めてのカウアイ島, 2018/02/11

オフィスに集合し安全トレーニングを受講してから、ヘリポートに向かいます。カメラ等の小物以外は、荷物は小さなバッグなども含め全てロッカーに残しておく必要がありますので、大きな荷物は持ってこないほうがよいでしょう。参加当日は時折雨が降る生憎の天気でしたので心配しましたが、さほど揺れることもなく快適なフライトでした。もちろん個人差もあり妻は若干気持ち悪くなったと言っていましたので、心配であれば酔い止めの薬を用意することをお勧めします。ヘリコプターでしか近づくことのできない、険しい山肌を流れ落ちる滝や海岸線の切り立った崖など、大迫力の風景を間近で楽しむことができました。カウアイ島の大自然を短時間で堪能することができ大満足のアクティビティでした。ガイドは英語ですがゆっくりしゃべってくれます。

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

A Beautiful day in Kauai

Reviewed by: Ron, 2018/01/27

We were amazed by the beautiful view at the Waimea Canyon.
I'm not sure what it is about the fern grotto, it is a place you have to see if you come to Kauai. It's not as breathtaking as other sights in Hawaii, but still it is moving in it's own way.
The tour guide was great and we got to see and hear about a myriad of things along the way that you wouldn't appreciate if you didn't have a guide. They know the places to stop and see, and the ones to pass by.
We would recommend this tour for anyone coming to Kauai.

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

BEST DAY EVER!!!!!

Reviewed by: Deb, 2018/01/27

This was by far the best day of our week. The kids loved it! The kayak trip on the river was amazing, nice and relaxing, beautiful scenery. Advice- have one experienced kayak-er for the 2 person kayak. The hike through the forest was so cool, it was exactly what we had imagined. We were filled with history and information along our hike which was really inviting! Once we got to the falls, delightful! Although the water was cold, it was the neatest things we had experienced! The lunch, the surroundings, the tour guide, all amazing! Don't second guess, Just do it!!!

ナ・パリ・コースト サンセットディナークルーズ 運がよければイルカに会えるかも!<夕食・飲み放題付き/英語ガイド/エレエレ地区>

ナパリコースト、鯨、イルカ、ウミガメ、夕陽などなど、全て最高!

Reviewed by: Taro, 2018/01/22

両親・子供を含め三世代で参加しました。
クルーズは英語オンリー、でも、スタッフの手厚い気遣いで、言葉が分からなくても、乗船前も乗船中もあまり困りませんでした。
4時間ほどのクルーズでしたが、出発直後にウミガメに遭遇、その後もひっきりなしに鯨やイルカが現れ、もちろんナパリコーストも夕陽も素晴らしく、退屈する暇がありませんでした。
飲み物や食べ物のサービスもそれなりに充実しています。
カウアイ島に来る機会があれば、ぜひ参加をご検討ください。

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

Be very careful!

Reviewed by: Annie S., 2018/01/21

The waterfall destination is spectacular, our guide, Web, was very good - and barefoot!. Well-fitting hiking or sturdy aqua shoes are a must for the average hiker. The kayak trip is easy in a wide river. The hike is often along narrow pathways along a dropoff area with no barriers. The ground is very muddy, uneven and you're stepping between roots of trees much of the time. Good foot placement, patience and balance are requirements. When we arrived at the falls, a thunderstorm dumped a lot of rain decreasing the time at the falls and created an extremely wet and muddy return trip on the path back to the kayaks. Puddle depths were unknown leading to many slips and falls and very slow and slippery going. While no one was hurt in our group of 12, I'd advise this trip only for the very adventurous, and very careful!

We went on the Blue Hawaiian Helicopter tour while we were in Kauai for our honeymoon. It was a 60 minute tour and we loved every minute of it! Our tour guide knew so much information about the island and even gave us fun facts about the island (movie spots). We would highly recommend this tour to everyone!

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

Tour good, but long for us

Reviewed by: Kathy, 2018/01/11

The tour, boat, crew, food, and scenery were great. For us, water was too cold to snorkel and 5 hours was too long. Probably would have done better on a 2-3 hour cruise. We did see porpoise, turtles, a monk seal and whale spouts, so the company delivered- it was more our issues that made it too long for us. Also, it is a 1 hr, 45 min drive from princeville to marina, so should have signed up for afternoon tour, not morning.

Reviewed by: Richard Bradford, 2018/01/11

Our tour guide Sam was very knowledgeable about Kauai. He added personal insights in not being a native but a resident for 30 years. He was also funny and helpful to all passengers. I would recommend him and his company to anyone wanting a good time.

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

Educational and professional luau

Reviewed by: Kathy, 2018/01/07

The smith family runs a professional operation. Everything was well-timed. Tram through the gardens to the imu presentation was nice. Ability to walk through the gardens was nice as much as you want is nice. Imu (unearthing the cooked pig) was interesting. Food at dinner was good, though open air dining room was not was I would have expected. Show was in an amphitheater nearby and again not what I expected, but visibility was good for all. The show was very well done, the right length and I appreciated the educational sharing of different types of dance to immigrants from different countries. Very enjoyable.

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

Good, but long

Reviewed by: Kathy, 2018/01/07

A more detailed itinerary would be helpful. For those staying in princeville, it is a 2 hour ride to Waimea canyon. The time at the canyon lookout point is 20 minutes. The fern grotto is another hour's ride. Boat ride and music were great, but hike and visit to fern grotto from boat was 20-30 minutes. Though there a couple of other small stops, you have to understand most of 11 hours is riding in a mini-bus. Driver was great and preferred small bus to large one.

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

We had a perfect day, the driver was friendly and very informative and professional. The views of the canyon were spectacular. The cruise and entertainment was more "laid back" and very worthwhile.

Reviewed by: John and Nadine , 2018/01/06

We liked the attention to detail from the pick up at our resort to the background knowledge during the driving portion. We had plenty of time to get out of the bus to stretch and take pictures. We seemed to be able to see and do more due to a smaller bus. This tour, like most, is depended on clear and non rainy weather; check ahead to pick a good weather day for this adventure. To combine both parts is a full day; we were picked up at 7am delivered back at 6pm. I would strongly recommend these stops as a "must see". You could drive up and down the canyon, but you would miss a lot of sights and information. The boat ride is also something not to be missed.

So we were looking to take in some history and have fun at the same time.
What better way than to float lazily down some waterways and with the help of a great guide who had lots of fun facts spend the day doing just that. Great time was had by both of us. Thanks for an awesome time.

Kauai Backcountry Adventures Mountain Tubing Tour with Lunch

Easy Tube Ride

Reviewed by: Debra M., 2018/01/04

I did this activity with my 14-year old son. You are on an intertube going down a simple stream for about 1 hour. The first part is getting to the inlet. During the ride, you are about 75% in tunnels but nothing scary so you don't need sunglasses or really any sunscreen/bug spray (at least we didn't). After outtake, you grab a quick 'make your own sandwich, chips, cookie, and water and ride back. Guides were friendly. Very mellow and safe excursion.

Great tour!

Reviewed by: Jacquie, 2017/12/30

We had Aunty Alicia as our guide and she was very knowledgeable and took us to extra spots! I was glad we got to see most of the north shore.

The only downside was the people flew in for the day and we were delayed waiting for them which cut our time short at some of our viewing sites.

Great Experience and Workout!

Reviewed by: Sharilynn , 2017/12/21

There are some amazing views and creatures to see. The guide was awesome. We took two kids in the front of our Kayaks (which means we did all the rowing) therefore the groups with 2 adults per boat went way ahead of us. Don’t sign up for group activities if you expect the world to evolve around you. The group we went with seemed to rush through everything and we were trying to enjoy the trip and views.

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

Awesome Luau show and decent dinner!

Reviewed by: B.L., 2017/12/17

The show is definitely the best part of it. Very entertaining, and great production. The dinner buffet is good -- more than enough food to stuff yourself, and decent selections of Hawaiian food. We didn't opt for the train ride before the dinner, and there's really not too many booths and demonstrations to walk around and see. A lot of people end up just sitting at their table early to wait for dinner to start, especially those who don't drink alcohol that much. My only complaint of the night was it was quite chilly and even cold after sitting there for a while watching the show. It's essentially "outdoors" (with cover) and it's December, so night time it's in the 60s, and I guess I didn't dress appropriately for 60s degrees F weather.

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

Great option to see Wailua river and Fern Grotto for those not kayaking

Reviewed by: B.L., 2017/12/17

5 years ago I came to Kauai and kayaked up the Wailua river. This time I'm taking family here who are not all physically fit and it would be a pity if there was no other way to see the Wailua river and Fern Grotto! Fortunately there's Smith's River Cruise! It offers a relaxing way to see the river, take a boat ride, and walk around the Fern Grotto. Well worth the ticket price! You also get to see a fun performance by the crew there and on the boat ride back, and get to join in the dancing.

Keep your srms and ankles in or get scraped up
There could of been a great story to this event
