Kauai Mountain Tubing Adventure – Float Through Jungle Tunnels & Canals

Tubing Adventure

Didn't know what to expect. If you like water rides, you're in for quite an adventure. Alot of fun for the family-our ages ranged from 7 to 45 and we all had a great time. The guides were very informative, funny and helpful.

Smith’s Fern Grotto River Cruise with Live Hawaiian Music & Hula

Splendid!

Reviewed by: Jen

The Smith family embraces you with their Hawaiian charm as soon as you meet them! The river trip to the Fern Grotto was a beautiful experience. We were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary so when the singers sang the Hawaiian Wedding Song it was very special! The Hula dancer on-board was not only beautiful, but very talented as well. Even my husband participated in the learning of the Hula dance - much to my delight! I would do this trip again if ever given the chance. Truly memorable!

This was a relaxing river ride. Our guides were knowledgable. We enjoyed the singing and dancing on the boat. We rode this tour into the Luau. Overall It was a great 1st day on the island. We would all do it again!

Deluxe Na Pali Experience Snorkel Tour, Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters

We enjoyed the Na Pali Coast and the dolphins that followed us! The snorkling, at least on the day we went, was not even worth getting in the water, I saw maybe 5 fish. Motion sickness prevention is a must! Lunch was good.

Smiths Family Garden Luau in Kauai - Authentic Hawaiian Dinner & Show

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We took my sister to this Luau because this was her first visit to a Hawaiian Island not because we enjoyed our past experience at a Luau. The Smiths did a fantastic job! The setting, the food, the presentation were all wonderful. I would do this again. It truly felt like we were at the Smiths dinner table enjoying a meal with them.

Smiths Family Garden Luau in Kauai - Authentic Hawaiian Dinner & Show

smith tropical luau

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Not really what i had expected. I found it to be rather boring. Would have really liked to see more of the Men dances than there was. Didn't really care for all the other country style dances was really looking for more of a Hawaiian, Polnysian style luau. The fire dance was cool. Think kids would find this show rather boring. The plantation was really really pretty i would recommend that you tour that.

The boat is kind of boring, but also very scenic. The grotto does make it worthwhile. I suggest doing the Smiths luau right after this, they are right together, so why not!

secret falls kayak and hike

Reviewed by: Virg

Josh was a great guide. He was very patient with our lack of skills with a kayak and he provided a lot of interesting information about the area, vegetation and history, etc. We were the only participants on our tour and we felt like we had our own personal guide. The kayak was top quality and even had a rudder to help with controlling the vessel as we rowed.

Smiths Family Garden Luau in Kauai - Authentic Hawaiian Dinner & Show

Everyone Had A Great Time

Reviewed by: H Baxter

We highly recommend this luau - the whole family from age 7 to age 75 enjoyed it. The food was awesome, the gardens were beautiful and the dancing was amazing. I love that this is a family run business, and you can tell that they all really invest their time and care into every detail. Even grandpa Smith was out in the food line making sure the buffet was tidy and fresh. I was really impressed by the quality of the dancers! Some might say, though, that this is a bit on the "schmaltzy" side - it might not have the cosmopolitan feel of some of the other luaus, I certainly wouldn't say it was a romantic or upscale sort of thing - but I liked the old-time feel of it. Also, don't rush to get there, we arrived at the very beginning and took the tram ride through the gardens - then waited about an hour for the entertainment and refreshments to start.
