Been to two other luaus. This was by far the best. It’s a full experience not just good and dance. Beautiful grounds. Awesome staff. Amazing entertainment. Lots of delicious food and drink. We loved it.

Due to weather conditions, we had to re-schedule 3 times, but we were so glad we finally got to go up. Marcus was our pilot and he was fabulous. He was very friendly and so informative on our flight. We ended up going on our last day in Kauai, but it was the best ending ever. I highly recommend Wings over Kauai….it allowed us a chance to see parts of the island (oh so many waterfalls and rocky cliffs) that you can’t see from the ground. We also felt the price was quite reasonable for this experience. We definitely recommend this experience!! A great way to spend our 30th anniversary!

I joined this tour because it was the only way to visit the Fern Grotto. I was glad to be able to participate since I had wanted to visit it at least once. Although we couldn't enter the cave due to past hurricanes and landslides, we were able to enjoy the atmosphere. We also had fun singing hula and songs in front of the Fern Grotto. It was great to feel the essence of Hawaii.
シダの洞窟に行くにはこのツアーしかないので参加しました。
一度訪れてみたいと思っていたので参加できて良かったです。
過去のハリケーンや土砂崩れの影響で洞窟内には入れませんが、その雰囲気を楽しめました。またシダの洞窟の前でフラや歌を歌ったりで楽しませて頂けました。

Pilot Asa was fluent in Japanese and provided explanations in both English and Japanese, which was very helpful! Japanese was definitely easier to understand, allowing for a deeper comprehension. The piloting was careful, and they made an effort to minimize turbulence. I didn't get motion sickness, but my daughters in the back seat felt a bit nauseous and said they should have taken motion sickness medication. On the day of the flight, the visibility was excellent, and we were able to see places that are usually obscured by clouds, which I think was lucky.
パイロットのアサさんが日本語堪能で、英語に続き日本語でも説明してくれたので、とても良かったです!
やはり日本語の方がわかりやすいので、より理解が深まりました。
操縦も丁寧で、なるべく揺れないよう気を遣って下さいました。
私は酔わなかったのですが、後部座席の娘達は少し酔ってしまったので、酔い止めを飲んでおけば良かったと言っていました。
当日は視界良好で、いつもは雲がかかっていて見えない事が多い所も見えてますよ、教えて下さり、ラッキーだったと思います。
If you are prone to motion sickness, I recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance.

It was an experience like a theme park as we went down the river to the fern cave. The content was neither good nor bad; it was just average. It's worth going at least once. I think once is enough. If I go again, I would like to go for kayaking.

I thought I might get bitten by mosquitoes, so I wore long sleeves, but there weren't any. There's nothing in particular to be careful about. Just relax and enjoy!

You can't enter the cave, but they will take you close to the entrance. On the boat, and of course in front of the cave, they provide wonderful performances and hula dancing. It was pleasant to enjoy the sightseeing boat while being blown by a refreshing breeze.

The boat was very bare bones and not fancy. Like I say, you get what you pay for. We have taken a more expensive NaPali coast snorkeling trip in a very nice boat but I was okay with paying less and having a smaller, less plushy boat so we could go deeper in the sea caves; however, we never even stopped to snorkel. I had to ask because we were never even told why we didn’t snorkel. They said it was too windy. I’m not sure I believed them. We did stop on the way back to jump in if we wanted. You pay the same whether you get to snorkel or not. I guess we should have booked the morning tour. Maybe chances of snorkeling are better. Next time I’d pay more for a comfy boat, with more room.
Take the morning time slot for better chance of snorkeling.

I heard that a Black pilot has also been to Japan and visited some niche tourist spots there. I sincerely apologize if this is perceived as racial discrimination, but I was pleasantly surprised to hear a Black person speaking Japanese honorifics so smoothly. The piloting was also careful, and I felt safe during the flight. If you are visiting Kauai, I highly recommend this tour.
黒人のパイロットさんで日本に来たこともあるそうで、日本でも玄人好みの観光地にいらっしゃったらそうです。

We recently attended the dinner show and overall, it was a very decent experience—definitely worth checking out at least once. It came highly recommended, and while parts lived up to the reviews, I did leave feeling slightly underwhelmed in a few areas.
The food was decent, but my family and I were hoping for more traditional Hawaiian dishes. I was especially looking forward to laulau and Hawaiian mac salad, which weren’t on the menu. While the meal was fine, it didn’t quite match the authenticity I’ve experienced at other luaus on different islands. That said, the piña colada was excellent!
The pre-show, including the unearthing of the pig, wasn’t quite what I expected, but the grounds were absolutely beautiful—immaculately maintained and fun to walk through, especially with the live animals.
Every staff member we encountered was warm and welcoming. The Smith family did a great job hosting, and the main host was especially entertaining and engaging. Their humor and hospitality were highlights of the evening

The boat ride takes just under 30 minutes, followed by a stay of about 20 minutes in the fern cave, allowing you to rest and enjoy sightseeing. Kayak rentals are also available on this river, and it's a lot of fun to encounter many things while moving by boat.
片道30分弱の船での移動、20分程度のシダ洞窟での滞在、身体を休めて観光ができます。この川ではカヤックのレンタルもやっていて、ボートで移動中に沢山遭遇して楽しいです。
