Kauai ATV Waterfall Tour at Kipu Ranch - Off-Road 3-Hour Expedition
Awesome tour!
Activity Date: 2024/06/13 | Posted on: 2024/06/16

We had a great time at Kipu Ranch and would definitely return. The tour operators were so fun and knowledgeable. We loved hearing about the history of the Ranch and all the beautiful scenery. I highly recommend this tour if you are on Kauai!

Wailua River Kayak & Secret Falls Hike - Guided Kauai Adventure
Great time!
Activity Date: 2024/06/13 | Posted on: 2024/06/16

My husband and I, along with our 19 & 15 year old daughters, thoroughly enjoyed the Sacred Falls adventure. Kayaking up the river was peaceful and beautiful as the river is very calm. The hike was fun with some scrambling over rocks and roots and wading through streams. We enjoyed eating lunch by the waterfall before trekking back. Our guide, Izzy, was fantastic - super easy to be around, very encouraging, and she grave great beach/dining suggestions at the end. We loved it!

Aloha Megan,

Izzy does it again!,,,Continously!

Glad you enjoyed Izzy's show and the paddle and hike to the falls.

A plus when you are under Izzy's "tutelage" she will fill your agenda with alternative activities to avail yourselves of while you stay on our little island.

Thanks for nice review.

シダの洞窟 観光遊覧船 ハワイ唯一の航行可能な川を行く!<英語ガイド/半日>
Exploring the Cedar Cave
シダの洞窟めぐり
Activity Date: 2024/05/24 | Posted on: 2024/06/15

During the round-trip cruise, we enjoyed the captain's guidance, Hawaiian music, and dance. Upon arrival, the sacred scenery brought peace to my heart. The announcements were all in English, but I could understand them well enough to enjoy the experience. After arriving on Kauai, I booked the tour online for a day that looked like good weather. It's a tour with great cost performance. I highly recommend it.

往復のクルージング中は船長の案内やハワイアンミュージック、ダンスで盛り上がりました。到着後は神聖な景色に心が安らぎます。案内は全て英語ですが、なんとなく分かるので楽しめましたよ。カウアイ島着いてから天気の良さそうな日にネットで申し込みました。コストパフォーマンスが良いツアーです。お奨めです。

Kauai Hiking Tour with Private Waterfall Swim & Jungle Adventure
A sweaty hike culminates in a refreshing waterfall swim!
Activity Date: 2024/05/22 | Posted on: 2024/06/03

I enjoyed this excursion. The hike was fairly strenuous, but I managed. Be sure to hold onto the ropes along the trail as it can be muddy and slippery. The big highlight of this activity is when you reach the 60-foot waterfall. I swam out to it and sat beneath it. Awesome! The guide was pleasant and was quite knowledgeable regarding all the flora and fauna. I would recommend this excursion!

Kauai Mountain Tubing Adventure – Float Through Jungle Tunnels & Canals
Fun Times in Kauai
Activity Date: 2024/05/28 | Posted on: 2024/05/30

This was a great adventure - something we have wanted to do for quite a while. The entire experience was well run, very organized, and clear on expectations. Directions to the facility, instructions on what to bring, and the itinerary were specific and clear.

The ride up to the tubing location was fun and Chelsea made the ride interesting with her presentation of the history and landscape of the area and island. Her reverence for the locals was awesome.

The tubing experience itself was as adventure and fun! It was very relaxing. The few times when one might feel a little anxious, the guides were calming in explaining exactly what to do and what to expect.

Upon return, the fresh and homemade items for lunch was tasty and hit the spot after the adventure.

Excellent time!

I loved this tour and would recommend it to anyone coming to Kauai for their 1st or 10th time! This tour is the perfect level of activity with the 2 mile kayak breezing by and the 1.5 mile hike not feeling very strenuous. Izzy was so kind and accommodating towards everyone in our group regardless of our fitness level. She made the tour feel more personalized, which was so special. The waterfall is absolutely beautiful, and words don't do justice to how refreshing the water feels. Izzy also provided our group some recommendations for Farmer's Markets and restaurants on the island, which I will keep in mind for myself and others' future trips!

Kauai Mountain Tubing Adventure – Float Through Jungle Tunnels & Canals
Exhilarating Mountain Tubing Adventure in Lihue
Activity Date: 2024/05/22 | Posted on: 2024/05/24

The 3-Hour Lihue Mountain Tubing Adventure is an absolute must-do in Kauai! The friendly staff got us geared up quickly with helmets and headlamps before we headed up the mountain, where our guide shared intriguing island tales.

Entering the water on our personal tubes, we were immediately swept up by the gentle flow of the historic irrigation canals. The open-air sections offered stunning views of the lush mountains, and the excitement ramped up as we approached the tunnels. The darkness was exhilarating, and our headlamps revealed the fascinating contours of these subterranean passages.

Our guides were terrific, ensuring safety and adding to the fun with their engaging personalities. The adventure wrapped up with a delicious picnic, giving us a chance to chat about our shared experience. This mountain tubing adventure was the highlight of my Kauai visit – an unforgettable mix of natural beauty, history, and thrill.

Kipu Ranch ATV Tour – Scenic Ride Through Jurassic Park Film Locations

Activity Date: 2024/05/16 | Posted on: 2024/05/18

My husband and I had a feeling this would be fun, which is why we booked this excursion. But we had no idea what a blast this really was! The "lookouts" that we stopped at during our ride were truly breathtaking. Our guides were super informative and had a good sense of humor. Believe me, you get it all during this excursion, fun, adventure, even a bit of "what did I get myself into" moments. Don't worry, you are safe and your guides are always right with you. Not to mention they won't take you onto trails you can't handle. Be prepared to get dirty! As our guide told us, embrace it, you can't get around it. But just fyi, bring extra shoes, a change of clothes and a towel. We happen to go on a day that was pretty wet from a storm. We were a mess! Loved all of it though. Highly recommend this excursion.

シダの洞窟 観光遊覧船 ハワイ唯一の航行可能な川を行く!<英語ガイド/半日>
It was a tour where you could enjoy Hawaiian music on a boat.
ボートでハワイアンミュージックも楽しめるツアーでした
Activity Date: 2024/05/03 | Posted on: 2024/05/11

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。

Kauai Shore Excursion: Waimea Canyon, Wailua River Cruise & Fern Grotto Tour
Breathe Taking Waimea Canyon
Activity Date: 2024/05/02 | Posted on: 2024/05/05
CMJ

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.
