Our guide Mason was fantastic! Great ukulele! Interesting history of the Hawaiian Islands and how they became port or the US. Scenery was great. Tunnels were fun!

Ultimate Kauai Private Guided Island Tour - Waimea Canyon & South Shore
It struggled to be too comprehensive.
Activity Date: 2023/08/19 | Posted on: 2023/09/09

My wife and I had taken guided tours before mainly in the Carribean. On those tours, we stopped for various activities: touring a ruin, lunch on the beach, and a hike through a rainforest. Our guide, Kevin, did an excellent job trying to show us everything (and finding restrooms). The fault was not in the guide but in the attempted scope of the tour. It was six hours of driving and stopping for photos and then more driving. For instance, there were two waterfalls on the tour: One (twin falls) in the great distance and the other along the roadside (blink and you would miss it). It would be better if we could be taken to the trailhead and allowed to hike close to the falls. Or maybe with some preplanning, we could have swum at one of the beaches we stopped at. Although my wife and I are in our 60s and 70s, we are both very active. It was an introduction to the Island but we were exhausted at the end of the six hours.

5-Hour Liko Kauai Catamaran Tour - Na Pali Coast Sea Caves & Snorkel with Lunch
Reconnect with my kids
Activity Date: 2023/08/14 | Posted on: 2023/09/09

The perfect activity to do on one of your getaway days, was so great to learn the history, and the challenges of the locals with survival on just daily living, on Kauai.
Was so good to be out on a very nice boat, but even better to be out with a captain and crew with great positive energy!! Took my 16 yo,14yo,7yo with and we all had a great time with great memories!, even had dolphins ride the wake of the boat for a bit!

Smith’s Fern Grotto River Cruise with Live Hawaiian Music & Hula
Fern Grotto boat tour
Activity Date: 2023/09/01 | Posted on: 2023/09/05

Beautiful river excursion; would have loved more time and not so rushed at the Grotto. One song seemed lame. Wanted time to take pictures of foliage on way down. Definitely would not recommend for wheelchair guests. It was steep and pavement unfriendly to wheelchair wheels and very steep and slippery incline uphill.
Entertainment on way back was very fun and good.

We took this River Cruise on our 20th wedding anniversary. it was to remind us of the beauty of the Fern Grotto that we visit many years ago. The boat ride was fun. We loved the narration, the music and hula dancing. I highly recommend this cruise.

The crew was very interactive with guests. They told the story of the grotto and about Hawaiian history. The fern grotto isn’t what it used to be but still a beautiful spot.

It was a fun boat trip.

Activity Date: 2023/08/28 | Posted on: 2023/08/30

The boat ride was enjoyable, with about 15 minutes of explanations about the surroundings on the way there, and on the way back, we all danced the hula together. The fern cave was breathtaking. The meeting point on the map was slightly off, and I got lost.

船は15分ほどで行きは周辺の説明、帰りはフラを皆で踊るなどして楽しかったです。シダの洞窟は圧巻でした。

Kauai ATV Waterfall Tour at Kipu Ranch - Off-Road 3-Hour Expedition
Great ATV experience through rainforests
Activity Date: 2023/08/24 | Posted on: 2023/08/28

Great hosts we had, very informative about route, scenery, and hazards to watch for. The waterfall was really shorter than I expected and that day showed too much dirt in the bottom of the waterfall lagoon area. Yet Overall,it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend this tour to friends/family.

Tubing was our favorite adventure. the drive out there was beautiful and our guide shared a lot of history and info about the island. Then the tubing was so fun. I thought i would be afraid of the caves but it was fun. Lots of spinning around and bumping into each other. The pictures turned out great.

カウアイ島に来たならMust go!
Activity Date: 2023/07/24 | Posted on: 2023/08/22

There is a meeting point at a port not far from the airport in Lihe. There is no check-in; you just show your voucher and board the boat. Once we set sail, we traveled upstream while listening to various explanations about the surroundings. Along the way, we waved to people in kayaks and arrived at the dock in about ten minutes. Just a few minutes on foot from there, the cave we were aiming for suddenly appeared. While we couldn't enter the cave itself, its grand and mysterious presence brought an indescribable sense of calm and satisfaction. In front of the cave, a hula performance was showcased, allowing us to fully enjoy the Hawaiian atmosphere.

On the return boat ride, there was a performance of Hawaiian music, and we even had a mini hula class with all the tour participants! Everyone was in high spirits, and the sense of unity was wonderful! During this tour, there was a significant participation from Japanese tourists, so they also performed a hula version of "Ue o Muite Arukou." It seemed like they were part of another tour group, but if they hadn't been there, I would have been the only Japanese person, and I might not have had the chance to hear that song. It was quite a lucky experience.

リフェの空港から遠くないところに集合場所の港?があります。
特にチェックイン等もなく、バウチャーを見せてそのまま船へ。
出航したら周辺のいろいろな説明を聞きながら川を遡行。
途中、カヤックに乗った人達と手を振りあいながら十数分での船着き場に到着。そこから徒歩で数分のところに目的の洞窟がバーンと登場。
洞窟の中にこそ入れませんが、壮大かつ神秘的とも言える佇まいに何とも言えない落ち着きと満足感が漂います。洞窟前では、フラも披露され、ハワイ感を存分に堪能できます。
帰りの船内でもハワイアンミュージックの披露や、ツアー参加者全員でのプチフラ教室?!も。皆んなノリノリで一体感もまた良かったです!
今回のツアーでは日本人のまとまった参加があったため、「上を向いて歩こう」のフラバージョンの披露も。別のツアーの団体さんか何かのようでしたが、もしそれらの方がおられなければ日本人は私一人だったので、この曲を聴くこともできなかったかと。なかなかラッキーな体験でした。

5-Hour Liko Kauai Catamaran Tour - Na Pali Coast Sea Caves & Snorkel with Lunch
Makana Charters is the best!
Activity Date: 2023/08/14 | Posted on: 2023/08/21

I highly recommend Makana Charters for your tour of the Na Pali coast! Capt. Rob, Leroy, and Bobby were the best crew! They were friendly, knowledgeable, and entertaining! We enjoyed the stories and Hawaiian tradition around the various stops along the way. I was impressed that Bobby remembered every person's name on the boat and showed a genuine interest in each and every one. Leroy even took song requests! The water was a bit choppy the day we went, but that made it all the more fun! We enjoyed the amazing sights of the Na Pali coast, the cave and waterfall, the dolphins swimming right under the kids' feet off of the bow, the sea turtle waving hello, and the snorkeling. The sandwiches were delicious, too! I would definitely book with Makana Charters again! We had a blast!

Aloha Kara,

So you saw our Humuhumunukunukuapua`a, state fish. Pretty cool. Did you sea turtles?

Lately we also have been seeing once in a while little pods of Spinner dolphins.

We try to have fun and keep everyone safe on our Hanalei River and Bay paddle.

Thanks for sharing.

The Humuhumunukunukuapua`a is waiting your return.

Family of four- two adult sons, enjoyed this spacious home. The bedrooms and bathrooms were comfy and each with their own amazing views. Kitchen had more than enough to cook meals and enjoy local food. Favorite spot was the patio off the living room. So lush. Private. Beautiful chickens roaming and kittens. Quiet neighborhood. Took beautiful walks. Enjoyed the nearby resort for sunset and dinner. Saturdays go to the Farmers Market. Responsive replies. Plenty of beach stuff as well. Great washer and dryer set up. Books, puzzles, and games galore. Just a lovely experience!
