Smith’s Fern Grotto River Cruise with Live Hawaiian Music & Hula
Excellent crew and talent, Fern Grotto not truly accessible
Activity Date: 2021/10/13 | Posted on: 2021/10/17

Our group of 4, aged 50s to 70s, very much enjoyed the entertainment and river history. One of our group was in a wheelchair. Bathrooms were accessible but the ramp to see Fern Grotto was so steep that 2 of us chose bathrooms over seeing that trip endpoint. This excursion is the best value on the island. Book it!

Wailua River Kayak & Secret Falls Hike - Guided Kauai Adventure
Kauai Kayak was a great adventure!
Activity Date: 2021/10/11 | Posted on: 2021/10/13

We had an awesome time. The adventure was a little strenuous at times but we got through it and the end rewards was well worth the effort! Our guide Devan was great and encouraged everyone along the way and was very knowledgeable of the area. The waterfall was amazing but the water cold! We really enjoyed the experience. We’ll worth it!

Captain on cruise was very informative and relaxed. He made the cruise more enjoyable. The young man who sang had excellent humor and a great voice for the songs he sang. The ladies were doing their job. Hula was beautiful and graceful

Kauai Mountain Tubing Adventure – Float Through Jungle Tunnels & Canals
Fun and adventurous tubing experience!
Activity Date: 2021/09/23 | Posted on: 2021/10/02

This was a very cool and unique tubing experience down the ditches of a former sugar plantation. The staff are fun, entertaining, and knowledgeable, including Laki and crew. You will experience views the island that you can not see otherwise. A must do for those who have not done it before. There are five tunnels you pass through along the way. Do not expect a lot of sun time. It was a very fun time.

Smiths Family Garden Luau in Kauai - Authentic Hawaiian Dinner & Show
Great 1st time Luau experience!
Activity Date: 2021/09/24 | Posted on: 2021/10/01

The Smith Family grounds were beautiful from the moment you walk in. Everything was so visually appealing and everyone was so nice. They take you around the entire grounds in a trolley so you can see everything beforehand. Plus you have time to walk around after the trolley ride. We enjoyed it all even the rain, the unveiling of the pig ceremony, the dinner entertainment, the explanation of the luau dance moves, the Smith Family, the dinner, and the luau show. We would definitely return. I believe it is a must see, especially for those who have never been to the Smith Family Luau before. Keep up the great work Smith family.

5-Hour Liko Kauai Catamaran Tour - Na Pali Coast Sea Caves & Snorkel with Lunch
A very fun boat ride and snorkel, I will take this tour again for this price
Activity Date: 2021/09/04 | Posted on: 2021/10/01

Relatively on-time schedule, and easy to find the meeting spot.
The tour was well organized with a good size of the crews and customers for the price. The boat is steady and clean, very nice to stay for 5 hours.
The captain was very experienced and he made the boat ride so fun by how he explains things, how he operates the boat, and how he interacts with the customers. He is very respectable and friendly.
The crews are also very informative! They shared so many stories of Hawaii myth, how they grew up in Kauai, and how wonderful nature is.

I am very glad that we did a boat tour to see the Napali Coast. I hiked several trails along the coast and took a flight tour as well. All the views have different looks. I loved that I could get to do snorkel with the boat tour, I swam with so many fish and turtles.

Wailua River Kayak & Secret Falls Hike - Guided Kauai Adventure
Best part of our trip to Kauai!
Posted on: 2021/09/24

This tour was by far our favorite part of our entire trip. The kayaking is beautiful and relaxing - easy enough for beginners (like some people in our group) but still very enjoyable for seasoned kayakers like my husband and me. The hike was also a lot of fun. A bit challenging at times - not so much in the way of fitness, but more-so because there are some places where it’s uneven and slippery. But as long as you wear good water shoes and step carefully, it’s a fairly easy hike even for someone that’s out of shape like me. The waterfall and swimming hole are stunning. Totally worth the muddy hike. Something we’ll never forget. And the guides are AMAZING! Our guide was Garrick - he was super knowledgeable, friendly, fun, and funny. He made the entire trip a blast. And at one point we met up with another group and their guide, Ty, was also super knowledgeable and funny - and played the ukulele on the hike back down. It was great! I would absolutely recommend this to anyone visiting Kauai and would definitely do it again.

Aloha J’Neal,


What a nice review with some advice of how to negotiate the often muddy trail. As you shared good water shoes helps allot.


Thanks for taking the time to let us know, well I mean that Garrick, continues to do good if not great job. Glad that you got to meet one of our other guides Tyler as well.

I can honestly say we have a great group of guides who truly love what they do and are their to interpret and share their particular and unique form of aloha.

Thanks for making it possible. You both sound like you might be candidates for our day long Na Pali sea kayak tour.

Stay active.

A hui hou,

Smith’s Fern Grotto River Cruise with Live Hawaiian Music & Hula
Very enjoyable river cruise
Activity Date: 2021/09/16 | Posted on: 2021/09/21

Great opportunity to sit back, relax and enjoy and hour and 20 minutes on the Wailua River and “getting married” at the Fern Grotto. The music and hula dancing on the journey up the river added a wonderful ambiance and the history and information on movies filmed on and around the Wailua on the way back was very informative. All in all a wonderful addition to our trip to Hawaii.

Wailua River Kayak & Secret Falls Hike - Guided Kauai Adventure
Challenging but worth it!
Activity Date: 2021/09/18 | Posted on: 2021/09/20

As a beginning kayaker, this was an energizing and satisfying ride. Make sure you have sturdy shoes for the hike. Our water ‘shoes’, more like socks, did not work as well as the closed toed more sturdy shoes would have been better and what most people had on. We made it though! That dip in the waterfall was worth the whole trip! J, our guide, was informative, attentive and amusing. Highly recommended.

Aloha Mary,

Yep…just the right amount of paddling and hiking. By the time your arms are getting tired…you are out and hiking to the falls.

Thanks for taking time to share and reflect on your tour with your guide Jay.

Sturdy hiking shoes makes it much more enjoyable; thanks for warning others.

Keep active and sharing aloha,

It was the perfect evening on our last night with the family.

Waimea Canyon Guided Sightseeing, Kokee State Park Nature Walk & Coffee Tour
Waimea Canyon and the south and west side sightseeing on/off tour with lunch!
Activity Date: 2021/09/06 | Posted on: 2021/09/08

This experience is a really good sightseeing tour. We covered about 1/2 of the island Kauai from the south, the west, and the north side from about 9a-4p.The places we stopped were great and the were plenty of bathroom breaks! I did think there would be more hiking involved because of the description. There is a nature trail at Koke’e State Park that is nice. Our guide was a native Hawaiian with great stories to tell!
The shops in Hanapepe were fun to shop at! We loved the swinging bridge there! And, the stop at the coffee farm was great with amazing coffee to be taste tested and purchased. You could also see the coffee beans being grown on the trees! It was a fun trip!

Waimea Canyon Guided Sightseeing, Kokee State Park Nature Walk & Coffee Tour
Spent little time at main sights and hours waiting for food!
Activity Date: 2021/08/09 | Posted on: 2021/09/04

I had the worst experience on this tour, had to wait about an hour and a half for the driver to do a food pick up and then wasted an extra hour plus just idling at a pic nic site after everyone had finished eating their lunch, while we speeded through all the main sights and barely had time to take photos of the breathtaking Waimea Canyon!!!!! Poor timing would be an understatement. It was my last day on Kauai and wish I had found another tour company to see Waimena Canyon!

Deluxe Na Pali Experience Snorkel Tour, Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters
It's a cruise around paradise with a crew of well trained, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly people, what more could you ask for
Activity Date: 2021/08/31 | Posted on: 2021/09/03

Our experience was pretty much perfect! The crew quickly found some dolphins which we stopped to watch and talk about, such amazing animals! The snorkel location was beautiful and the crew told us all about the island and various areas relative to local history, legends and the like. We then took to sailing as the weather was being friendly enough and enjoyed drinks and lunch. It's difficult to explain the joy of sailing off the coast of Kauai with a beer and a great group of people, it's worth every penny and more! We asked around the island and were told by every local that Holo Holo was the only choice for cruises around the island, they did not disappoint! We will be back to Kauai and will absolutely return to Holo Holo again

Aloha ! Remarkable performances by the musicians and Aloha dancers. A very entertaining group! My family was amazed all througout the river cruise. The walk to the Fern Grotto was a unique experience because the beauty of the lush and large tropical plants was amazing and beautiful. Overall, an exciting experience to see a beautiful garden ( Fern Grotto) . It is very well recommended to have the river cruise and if we come back to Kauai, we will do the Wailua river cruise again.

Great time! Waterfall, the hike, the tour guide were all great.

Highly recommend water shoes. We bought them last minute and they helped tremendously.

Also, your shoes on the hike will get muddy.

This tour was absolutely wonderful! It was my family’s first visit to Kauai and it was overwhelming seeing all the activities that are available on the island. We settled for this as a way to see a lot of the main sights and it was the PERFECT way to spend the day! We had Kana’e (sp?) as our guide and she was absolutely a joy to spend the day with. She talked stories with us, shared her culture with us and told us all the places to go for our trip! The sights were gorgeous and we recommend this to anyone who is visiting for the first time!!
