The food was very good. I have seen shows at other luaus that I enjoyed more. This show seems to be family members and I prefer the shows that seek the best talent.

Kauai to Oahu & Pearl Harbor
I liked the Arizona tour, but I thought that the park dept could do more to explain the details of the Memorial to us younger folks who do not know about the detailed History of what happened and why it happened, other than the movie. Kids today do not like reading. IE: when we went to Kileau, we had a Park ranger, Jason Zimmer, explain to us in detail what was there, very informative. Also we would have liked to see Diamond Head, they say if time allows, but we wasted to much time driving around Waikiki.

The cruise was very relaxing with the cool breeze on your face. It would even be better if you had hammock, but i do realize that maybe impossible.

The cruise was short but sufficient for the price. I recommend taking the 3:30 cruise and then going to the Smith Luau right beside the docks. Excellent site and entertainment and also worth the price.

WOW! This all day activity was one of the highlights of our Kauai family vacation! A little bit of everything. Beautiful scenery, great variety of information from the guides (nature and entertainment-wise), lots of fun. Especially enjoyed the kayaking, hike and swims. We would definitely do this again. (Family of 4 - 2 teen-aged girls).

Chad our pilot with Blue Hawaiian provided us a great tour of Kauai. He was knowledgeable, personable, and most importantly a safe helicopter pilot. The tens of 3000ft waterfalls around Mt. Waialeale and the Na Pali coast were awesome! This was certainly one of the highlights of my Hawaiian vacation.

My family is still talking about the exceptional, exciting, fantastic trip that we took to Niihau. The snorkeling was the best that we have ever seen- clear blue water, lots of fish and plenty of time to snorkel. The colors of the water were incomparable- sapphire blue, azure, teal,aquamarine and garnet green-spectacular. The service and the crew were great- they really knew all about the islands and they were experts on snorkeling.
We would go again in a heartbeat!!

Thank you for pleasant memories once again.

This is the second time I have taken this cruise, and I remember it being better before. Granted, part of the reason is not being able to go up to the actual Fern Grotto (one was able to walk through it before). It is a very pretty site, but I'm not sure that it is worth the price.

I have been to the Smith's Luau many times as a couple and with family and friends over the years. As a child I went to the Fern Grotto with members of the Smith family on their private boat long before it became commercialized. I highly recommend these activities to anyone. The entire family makes everyone feel a personalized welcome and are anxious to make your occasion very special.

The captain and his crew were great. They did everything to ensure that we had a pleasurable time. The Na pali coast is incredible. Trip was good for all ages. The water can be rough, so beware if you are prone to seasickness. Only problem was hawaii activities gave us the wrong checkin time. We sat around for 1/2 hour waiting for the checkin. Also the cruise ended alot later then
we had anticipated. But in the big scheme of things , no big deal.

Had a great time. Kayaking looks easier than it is, as it was tough to keep the kayak going straight. Nonetheless, we had a great time and the Secret Falls were absolutely beautiful.

I participated with my parents and family. Out of about 40 participants, we were the only Japanese. The crew was very friendly, but all the safety instructions on the boat and the snorkeling guidelines were explained in English, so it can be concerning and dangerous if there isn't at least one person in the group who can speak English.
The Na Pali Coast is magnificent, and we were able to get close to Niihau Island, where we saw dolphins and whales up close, which was fantastic. The water was clear, and we were able to see many rare fish while snorkeling.
However, during the voyage (I'm not sure if the waves are always that high), there were incredibly high waves, and for nearly an hour, the speed and rocking made me feel like I might be thrown into the sea multiple times. I think it's better for those who are not good on boats to avoid this trip.
If you're young, confident in your physical abilities, and enjoy thrills, and can communicate in English to some extent, I believe you will have a great time.
両親と家族を連れて参加しました。
40名ほどの参加者のうち、日本人は私たちだけでした。
クルーはとてもフレンドリーですが、やはり船での注意事項や、スノーケルをする際の注意事項などすべて英語で説明されるので、グループの中で一人ぐらいは英語を話せる人がいないと不安だし、危険だと思います。
ナパリコーストは素晴しいし、ニイハウ島にも近くまで行けるし、イルカやクジラも近くで見れたのでとても良かったです。水もきれいで、スノーケルでも珍しい魚がたくさん見れました。
ただ、航海中は(いつもあんなに波が高いのかはわかりませんが)、ものすごい高波で何度も海に放り出されるのではないかと思う程のスピードと揺れが1時間近く続くので、船に弱い人は避けたほうが良いと思います。
若く、体力に自信があってスリルを楽しみたい人、更にある程度英語でコミュニケーションが取れる人でしたら、十分楽しめる内容だと思います。
