Wailua River Kayak & Secret Falls Hike - Guided Kauai Adventure

Awesome Time & Awesome Guide

Reviewed by: Russell & Maddison

The adventure starts with kayaking out of the marina and up the river. The current is very slow, so you have plenty of photo opportunities and chances to enjoy the views. Wear a hat and sunscreen, you don't have shade for much of this portion.
Next is a hike through the rainforest. 95% of the hike is easy. There are a few river crossings, muddy inclines, and slippery/uneven footings. The hike is definitely not grueling, and I never felt tired. But if someone had mobility or balance issues, they would struggle at a few spots. I'd take my kids, but not my grandma.
Third is lunch at the waterfall. It's an uneven/rocky area, but our lunch was good. The views here are amazing. The pool of water is VERY cold. It's shallow enough to walk all the way under the waterfall.
You get about an hour at the waterfall. Then you hike and kayak back to where you started.
Our guide was Justice. He was very knowledgeable about the plants, wildlife, and history of the area. He had lots of interesting stories. The trip was enjoyable & he definitely added to the fun. Justice will tell you that "Hawaii is magic" and after this vacation we might agree.
When we eventually make it back to Kauai, visiting the waterfall will surely be on the list of activities.

Wow Russell and/or Maddison,

One of you should write a guide book. Do you want to start writing copy for us? (Smiling face)

A very,,,,very good description of what is involved and might say the the excellence of our guides such as Justice.

Thanks for taking the time…it’s a beautiful world out there.

Stay well and active.

Kipu Safari Adventure - Zipline, Hike, Kayak & Waterfall Swim with Lunch

Great Adventure!

Reviewed by: Jason

Overall it was a great experience! We had two guides, first for the kayak then another guide joined us once we were done kayaking. Both guides were easy to talk with, funny, and knew the land's history and the foliage. The fun stops with jumping into pools of water. The ziplines were a blast! The final plunge into another pool of water was awesome! The lunch was yummy. The company accommodated our request with a gluten-free bread and treat! I would highly recommend the trip!

Kauai ATV Waterfall Tour at Kipu Ranch - Off-Road 3-Hour Expedition

Exceptional Fun

Reviewed by: Chrystina

Very well organized! Our guides were very informative of the area. It's the perfect blend of riding with brief stops to take amazing pictures and breathe in Kauai's beauty and gorgeous scenery. It rained throughout our tour which made it muddier and that much more fun! We saw the waterfall, but for safety reasons, weren't able to swim in it. Be sure to take clothes and SHOES you won't mind getting muddy. The facility had an area to rinse off after the tour. It's an adventure must do!

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

Beautiful views, relaxing.

Reviewed by: Bette lou

The riverboat cruise was a great experience. The riverboat ride was gentle and relaxing. The views were exceptional. Our host gave us a background of the area, which was interesting, and also let us enjoy the peaceful silence as well. Seeing the kayakers on the river was enjoyable. My only advice would be to wear good shoes with traction. The walk up to the grotto can be a little slippery due to moisture and moss. The entertainment that took place at the destination of the grotto, was really entertaining. Enjoy the ride!

I specifically booked this luau because I read it was a great experience for kids. We loved the train ride, especially, which is unique to this location.

4.5-Hour Napali Coast Sunset Cruise Dinner & Open Bar - Holo Holo Catamaran Sail

Fun but very bumpy and wet

Reviewed by: Tracy

The boat itself was nice and the crew were lovely. Thankfully there was a place to hide slightly from the waves but it's also where the sea sickness gets really bad. My 14 son started to not feel well then a lady across from him got sick so that didn't help.

When they say it's an "adventure and you WILL get wet" they aren't lying. There were huge ups and downs and everyone was soaked.

The food was good and again the crew was lovely.

Definitly not a "smooth dinner cruise"

It was such a fun adventure! It was raining for most of it and we got pretty muddy. If it’s raining when you go definitely buy or bring a poncho to cut down on the mud. There were parts of the trail that felt more advanced but they guided us on how to get through.

The sites and greenery were absolutely stunning!

The guides were super pleasant and supportive. The explained everything clearly and patiently. I felt safe and supported the whole time. Learned lots of cool things!

The Wailua River cruise to the fern grotto was perfect. It was a little wet the day we went, but the boat was covered and we were kept dry.

Hidden Valleys of Kauai Waterfall Swim, Kayak & Hike Adventure

Such a great time

Reviewed by: madhundle

We had such a great time. Getting to rope swing into the pool was such fun. That in particular was my favorite part, but the whole trip was such a great way to experience the natural beauty of Hawaii. Getting towed back at the end was a really nice touch, too. Instead of being left a bit tired from rowing back my friends and I were all still energized and ready to keep having fun with the rest of our day. My only feedback is that they should change the picture and thumbnail that's associated with this listing on the website. The waterfall in that photo is not part of this trip, so it's misleading. The waterfalls you will see are much smaller, though the trip is still fun.

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

This is a Kauai "Must See"!

Reviewed by: judi

There are several luaus that take place on the island of Kauai and I am not familiar with the others. Having said that, this show blew me away! I was not expecting such a beautiful, dramatic, outdoor setting, so many different types of dances, and a wonderful history of Hawaiian culture! My mother and I opted for the "show only" experience since we are not big carnivores. The check-in and tram ride were super efficient and helped to set the scene for the big show. As soon as the show started, I knew we'd made the right choice to see the Smith's Family Garden Luau. If you want an amazing experience for a very reasonable price, book this luau when you are in Kauai!
