We had such a great time. Our guides were so patient and fun. I would say to prepare for a few uphill hikes to next line but guides stayed with us all the time. Their experience, humor and knowledge made the experience a lot of fun. I would definately recommend to the new zipper and to the experienced. Just do it. Ask for Koa and Talen.
We took water but the guides had plenty. The views were amazing.

This was a great/relaxing experience. Nice cruise up and down the river, good historical information, and easy walk to the grotto. Well worth the time. If you have any problems walking then do not try this. The walk is short but why pay just for a boat ride? This was worth MY time and I would do it again.

On the last day of my stay in Kauai, I participated in this experience. From the welcome music upon boarding to the entertaining talks, the journey to the fern cave, the beauty of the cave, the songs and hula dances in front of the cave, and the music, singing, and hula dancing on the return boat, it was all very rich. The final solo by the female captain just before docking, with the waves, wind, flowers, and swaying leaves... the hula dance that conveyed the beauty of nature was truly breathtaking.
カウアイ滞在最終日に参加しました。はじめから終わりまで、入船する際のウェルカムミュージック、楽しませてくれるトークから、シダの洞窟への道のり、洞窟の美しさ、洞窟前の歌とフラダンス、帰りの船の中での音楽、歌、フラダンスと盛り沢山で、とくに女性キャプテンによる寄港直前の最後のソロの波、風、花、葉の揺れ...自然の美しさを感じさせるフラダンスは圧巻でした。

I was able to fully enjoy the nature-rich Kauai Island. I truly had a wonderful experience.
Of course, I got to see the Fern Grotto and Waimea Canyon, known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific, as well as the valleys and waterfalls visible along the way. The lunch sandwiches were delicious too! In addition to the beautiful natural scenery, we also stopped by a Kauai coffee shop where I could enjoy some very drinkable coffee. The driver and guide were friendly and skilled at driving. I would like to sign up for a tour with Polynesian Adventure again on my future travels.
自然豊かなカウアイ島を満喫することができました。本当に良い想いをさせてもらいました。
シダの洞窟や太平洋のグランド・キャニオンと呼ばれるワイメア渓谷はもちろん、道中にて見える渓谷や滝なども見ることができます。ランチのサンドイッチも美味しかったです!また、自然豊かな場所に加えカウアイコーヒーショップに寄ることができます。とても飲みやすいコーヒーを飲むこともできます。ドライバー兼ガイドの方も気さくですし、運転も上手です。今後も旅行の際にはPolynesian Adventureさんのツアーに申し込みたいと思いました。

This river boat tour was very relaxing and enjoyable. Our guides were talented, insightful, and had a great sense of humor. The fern grotto was a lovely stroll. The live entertainment set the mood for the rest of our trip. If you are weary about going on this river boat, don’t be, it is a sweet smooth ride. We highly recommend doing this tour while visiting Kauai.

Large boat brings you about 30 mins down river with a tour guide speaking overhead. Our tour guide was very funny and was probably my favorite part of this activity. You’ll disembark at an area with walkways/bathroom through a lush rainforest that eventually ends at an area with a large cliff/cave. APPLY BUG SPRAY! There are lots of mosquitoes in this area.
Here you’ll get a short history of the location as well as some music/hula dancing.
You’ll head back to boat and return with more traditional ukulele music/hula dancing.
Wasn’t a fan of the music myself, but enjoyed the trip overall.
If you aren’t able to do a strenuous hike, wheelchair bound, or have small children this activity is short enough to get a taste of the scenery without the hassle of a rough walking trail.

Nice relaxing ride down the Wailua River with a short, easy walk to the Grotto. Learning about the history of the boats and the area was very special, as well as having the Hawaiian music and dancing on the boat. The pilot was witty and made a couple of cute jokes. Definitely recommend for families or as an alternative for more strenous activities, or just as a nice cool break from the hot days.

We participated as a family of four (two adults and two elementary school children). We took a boat to the Fern Cave. During the round trip on the boat, there were explanations, songs, and dances about the Fern Cave, which were enjoyable. However, everything was in English, so there were parts we didn't understand. Visiting the Fern Cave on January 1st made us feel a sense of sacredness.
家族4人(夫婦と小学生2人)で参加しました。
シダの洞窟までは船で行きます。往復の船の中では、シダの洞窟の説明や歌、ダンスなどがあり楽しめます。ただし、すべて英語なので、わからないところもありました。
1月1日にシダの洞窟に行けて、神聖な気持ちになりました。

Trying to find activities that appeal to a family, like mine, that ranges in age from 13 to 60 can be challenging, but this zipline adventures was a winner for all!
Thanks to our team of Payton, Jayden, and Tyler, my family was safe and entertained from equipment prep to zipping through the trees to our final return. We loved our up-close-and-personal view of movie props and backdrops to nature in all of its glory. In true Hawaii fashion, we got sun, clouds, light rain, and a picturesque rainbow all during our tour.
We started with easy zips to acquaint ourselves with the equipment and procedures. In no time, we were ready to FLY superman-style and zip UPSIDE DOWN (all optional, of course!).
We had hours of phone-free fun. We survived a dinosaur attack - if you know, you know - and we can't wait to do it again.
Big thanks to Jayden for helping a scared mom master her fear of flying to see Kauai in the most exciting way!

It's a tour with great cost performance. I highly recommend it.

Check-in information:
Please note that the map guidance is not accurate. You can check in by providing your name at the ticket booth near the Wailua River boat launch. By the way, I was able to ride the bicycle I borrowed from the hotel and park it there.
About the tour:
On the boat, there was a sightseeing guide (historical explanation), and we all stood up and danced to Hawaiian music, creating a cheerful atmosphere. It's enjoyable even if you participate alone. I don't know what it was like when we could enter the fern cave, so compared to that, the fern volume seems a bit lacking, but it was still a good tour.
チェックインについて
地図の案内とずれているので注意です。ワイルアリバーボート乗り場のチケット売り場のところで名前を伝えれば受付できます。ちなみに、ホテルで借りた自転車でいき、停めることができました。
ツアーについて
ボートでは観光案内(歴史説明)もあったり、ハワイアンミュージックでみんなで立ち上がって踊ったり、陽気な雰囲気で過ごせました。1人参加でも楽しめます。シダの洞窟の中に入れた当時を知らないので、それに比較するとシダボリュームが貧弱のようですが、それでも良いツアーでした。

Do yourself a favour by not missing this awesome natural spectacle that is Waimea Canyon if you’re visiting Kaua’i.
The vastness, colours and wildlife are extraordinary.
Wailea River Cruise was average. Staff on the barge were friendly and polite, like all Hawaiian people we have met. But their attempt at humour was off, but more importantly not even close to being funny. The main female host tried sharing information/history along the river, but kept making mistakes and forgetting what she was saying!
Fern Grotto, was disappointing, not only because you can no longer enter the cave due to safety, but I’ve seen better natural amphitheatres.
Still worth seeing as it’s part of the package.
Our tour guide Leonme from Roberts Hawaii Tours was awesome. Very funny, very informative.

This cruise was great with our 18 month old. The boats are wide and spacious and have great visibility on any seat. We enjoyed the commentary and singing while we rode -- and barely noticed the rain.
The short walk to the fern grotto was lovely and lush. Not to mention the grotto itself. We learned more about the traditions of the place and watch a Hula performance of a love song. The guides did not rush us through the walk and were very warm and friendly.
Recommend -- especially if you have young children and need something fun to do with them. My son loved the boat ride!

It was a very good tour that allowed us to efficiently visit all the places we wanted to see on Kauai Island. I felt that the driver and guide's hospitality and skills were very high. They spoke to us casually in Japanese as well. Although I couldn't understand everything in English, I still had a great time on the bus.
The river cruise was also very nice, as we got to listen to live music.
Lunch was included, and we also stopped by Kauai Coffee, making it a fulfilling day.
