3.5-Hour Na Pali Sunset Dinner Cruise with Open Bar on Holo Holo Catamaran
Great way to see the Napali coast. The crew was fabulous as well!
Activity Date: 2023/07/22 | Posted on: 2023/07/24

The views were stunning. The crew was great. The food was delicious. Someone got seasick on the trip and the crew (especially Arein?) handled it smoothly.

The first time I went on this tour a friend booked and I wasn't sure about it. I had so much fun I took my daughter the next time we were here. This time I have recommended it to multiple friends who will be tubing with me for the third time! Great family fun!

セスナ遊覧飛行 ワイメア渓谷&ナ・パリ・コースト&ハナペペ渓谷 <英語ガイド/リフエ空港発>
It was the best experience.
最高の体験でした。
Activity Date: 2023/07/13 | Posted on: 2023/07/18

The staff were friendly, and even though I don't speak English, I was able to participate happily. They were also considerate of my worries about motion sickness and turbulence during the flight, allowing me to enjoy the flight with peace of mind. And above all, the view of Kauai Island from the sky was amazing!

スタッフの方々がフレンドリーで英語ができない私でも楽しく参加できました。
また、酔いや揺れを心配していた私をフライト中も気遣ってくださり、安心してフライトを楽しむことができました。
そして何より空からのカウアイ島の景色は最高でした!

Ultimate Kauai Private Guided Island Tour - Waimea Canyon & South Shore
Wonderful tour
Activity Date: 2023/07/15 | Posted on: 2023/07/17

Susan was fabulous. She was so knowledgeable about the island and great with our kids (ages 5 and 7). She told us history of the island and suggestions on things to do during our stay. When our kids were getting tired and a bit cranky, she went out and got them water and popsicles. This tour was the highlight of our trip!

Hanalei River and Blue Lagoon Kayaking & Guided Snorkeling Tour - Kayak Kauai
Kayak Kauai
Activity Date: 2023/07/12 | Posted on: 2023/07/14

Great crew. They did underestimate the difficulty of the kayaking in the ocean to the snorkeling beach. Very tough for some in my group. Otherwise great day. Food OK.

Aloha Larry,

We try to be candid in all our tours about the intrinsic effort and matching folks to the right tour.

Yesterday, clients on the same tour, felt while they did not need a guide to get to the snorkeling beach off Hideaways, that having the guide(s) made for a richer experience.

That said your review helps others choose the correct tour.

In spite the toughness…thanks for giving us 4 stars.

A hui hou,

Micco/Head Guide

Smith’s Fern Grotto River Cruise with Live Hawaiian Music & Hula
Amazing experience!
Activity Date: 2023/07/11 | Posted on: 2023/07/13

This is our second time going to the Fern Grotto and it was just as beautiful and amazing as the first time we went 9 years ago. We booked online and it was very easy. We got to the check in site and they handed us a ticket with our name already on it and asked us to turn it in when we boarded. Right on time, they asked us to head down to the dock and board our river boat. Everyone that we encountered had a big smile and a kind word for us. They gave us a brief safety talk and we were off! Our guide going out there was very knowledgeable and talked to us about the history of the island. When we reached the Fern Grotto, they sang for us some beautiful songs and then we hiked a little way up to the grotto. We took lots of pictures and then made our way back! We were treated to some songs and beautiful hula dancing on the way back. The young lady on the microphone was so much fun! She was a jokester, and she had a beautiful singing voice. The ladies doing the hula dancing were just so beautiful to watch and you can tell they love what they do. Overall, it was a lot of fun and I highly recommend. I do recommend booking online as it will save you some time when you get there. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

5-Hour Liko Kauai Catamaran Tour - Na Pali Coast Sea Caves & Snorkel with Lunch
Wonderful boat tour with experienced staff
Activity Date: 2023/07/07 | Posted on: 2023/07/10

The Napali coast boat tour was definitely worth our time and money. The 5-hour or so tour was filled with constant activities, with experienced captain and the crew. The 20-or-so person boat was comfortable with the front-facing seats and a clean bathroom. It was also newly cleaned and painted. The captain also maneuvered through the caves and shore with experience, providing good opportunities for the pictures. The tour also provided an ample time for a snorkeling towards the end. It was definitely something we would recommend.

Air Kauai Epic Doors-Off Helicopter Flight Adventure from Lihue Airport
It was an awesome ride-
Activity Date: 2023/07/08 | Posted on: 2023/07/10

The helicopter flight was great - one of the best so far.
The staff was professional, and the facilities were new and clean. They gave us the phone harness and the wind breaker (which was essential).
The pilot - Steve - was experienced and guided through the entire flight giving us confidence.
The fly around the volcano was the most amazing of all.
The doors-off does present windy conditions on top of already windy (in addition to the lift from blades). So if you are on the edge seats, be ready to enjoy the ride with strong winds hitting your body and the face.

Wailua River Kayak & Secret Falls Hike - Guided Kauai Adventure
Fantastic tour-GREAT tour guide!
Activity Date: 2023/06/30 | Posted on: 2023/07/09

The kayak/hiking/waterfall tour was beautiful. Exactly what we were looking for. Tour guide Harrison was fantastic, very knowledgeable about the local flora/fauna, history. Harrison was cool with letting our 10 year old daughter double kayak with him (she didn’t want to ride with mom and dad!). Lunch sandwiches were very yummy. Tour guide even provided a chilled pineapple after the tour. Harrison made sure we all had transportation after the tour and actually went out of his way to drop us off at the beach across the highway in his own personal vehicle. 100% recommend and would use again!! Also-prepare to get muddy LOL

Aloha Wilson O'hana,

Harrison does it again, i.e. provides a classic effort, as he does on all his tours.

We are the only tour company on the Wailua that provides pretty good lunches; my favorite is the veggie.

Will share your kind words with Harrison…slowly; don't want it to go to his head.

Thanks for sharing and warning folks about the mud.

A hui hou,

Micco

Smiths Family Garden Luau in Kauai - Authentic Hawaiian Dinner & Show
Best all around
Activity Date: 2023/07/05 | Posted on: 2023/07/07

We have been to several luaus on different islands. The total experience here from start to finish was excellent. The grounds are beautiful with a lot of great photo opportunities and the food was surprisingly delicious! The drinks were tasty and they kept them coming. The show was not only entertaining with traditional components but had a flare of different cultures that really added to the experience! Absolutely a must when choosing which luau to attend. I was worried when the price was significantly more affordable but wow was I ever so happy with my choice. Would definitely recommend!!

Waimea Canyon Sightseeing Tour & Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto

My family and I had never been to Kauai and I wanted to book this tour as it had some fun things to do. Rosario was a great tour driver, very funny and knowledgeable and safe driver. We went to Opaekaa Falls, then went on a river cruise on the wailua river to the fern grotto (while on the boat we learned how to hula and enjoyed listening to the smith family singing and dancing hula). Then we went to Waimea canyon aka the Grand Canyon of the pacific- pictures do not do it justice. Very breathtaking. Then we went to kauai coffee plantation where we sampled amazing coffee and finally went to see the spouting horn. Overall a great tour with Rosario
