What are people saying about Kauai

Chelsea_W, Jul 2026

A Must Do!!

Super great experience with Jasmine and crew. A couple of us got sea sick and they were great tending to us. The crew was super knowledgeable and provided great insight into the Hawaiian culture. They were very personable and great with the kids on our trip. The Nā Pali Coast is just absolutely stunning! Words can't describe it. It's a must do excursion! 10/10 recommend.

Kauai: Na Pali Coast Power Catamaran

Erin_K, Jul 2026

Core Memories Made

Napali Experience is the very best for seeing the majestic Napali Coast! Drew and Corbin were the definition of the Aloha spirit, patient, fun, informative, engaging and did I mention FUN! The boat felt safe with plenty of room. If you’re looking to lock in some core memories of one of the most beautiful places, this is the right choice. If you don’t book with Napali Experience, you’re doing it wrong.

Kauai: Na Pali Sunset & Sightsee Boat Tour

Julie_S, Jul 2026

Adventure to Paradise!

This is a fantastic adventure tour! Prepare for high winds, maybe some rain and some massive waves en route to the coast line. The return trip is stunning and expertly guided. Captain Max kept us safe and Chelsea and Miguel were everywhere, attentive to every guest on the boat. This is a must do while on the island!

Koloa Zipline in Kauai

Martin_L, Jul 2026

So so so fun

We had an awesome time at Koloa Zipline! Austin and James were our guides, and they absolutely made the experience. They were hilarious the entire time, but also made everyone feel comfortable and safe. They were incredibly kind, helpful, and just genuinely fun to be around. You can tell they love what they do, and their energy made the whole tour even better. The ziplines were amazing, the scenery was beautiful, and there were plenty of laughs from start to finish. If you end up here, I hope you get Austin and James—they’re a big reason this was one of the highlights of our trip to Kauai.

Kauai: Na Pali Coast Super Raft Snorkel Adventure

JESSIKA_L, Jul 2026

This was an amazing...

This was an amazing experience! We were not sure what to expect but the raft was large enough so people were not on top or each other but not so large that it felt like a cruise. The raft was fast over waves and comfortable to be on for a long duration (plus there was a toilet). On the 45 minute ride to the cliff we saw a pod of dolphins. The boat sat for awhile so we were able to taking in the beautiful Na Pali coast line. On the way back we went through a cave and finished off with snorkeling. We had a blast and were thankful there was music!

Kauai: Luxury Na Pali Snorkel Experience aboard Lady Kailani

Angela_G, Jul 2026

Great tour

Captain Kauai and his 2-person crew: Erin & River were the best. They gave very clear instructions and provided a wonderful experience for my family and me. The food was the best I have eaten on any snorkel excursion and I have been on many different ones in Maui and Kona. The boat was very comfortable and there was plenty of room for everyone to move on the boat. Aside from a few riders who didn't listen to the crew, the overall trip was very pleasant for our family.

Kauai: Luau Ka Hikina Admission with Dinner and Lei Greeting

Edmund_B, Jul 2026

Welcoming, Entertaining, Delicious, and Informative

It was spectacular. The luau was entertaining and informative. The staff were friendly and inviting. The food was delicious. Some events like this might feel stilted, but this was welcoming and warm. My wife and I are forty-six years old, and we loved it. Our daughter is nineteen years old, and she loved it, too. We signed up for this luau because it was conveniently located to the hotel in which we were staying and we were visiting Hawaii for the first time, but the entire evening was impressive. I've heard friends and acquaintances complaining about other luaus they attended on the islands, so I think this might be the one that actually achieves its atmospheric goals.

KAUAI LUXURY 60-Minute Doors-Off Helicopter ADVENTURE

Patti_T, Jul 2026

Open door helicopter tour of Kauai

It was incredible! A bit scary at first and them I made myself realize I wasn't going to fall out! Chris was our pilot and headed sure both sides had equal viewing opportunities. The scenery was beyond phenomenal! We spent a full hour on the tour. They warned us to bring a light jacket before arriving so it made the trip comfy! This trip was one of the most memorable highlights of my life!

Wow. just wow. 🚁🤩...

WOW. Just WOW. 🚁🤩 Our doors-off helicopter tour was nothing short of spectacular! The views were beyond anything we could have imagined, and the feeling of soaring above paradise with the wind rushing by was absolutely exhilarating. Every turn revealed another breathtaking scene that looked like it belonged on a postcard. The staff was fantastic, making us feel safe, informed, and excited throughout the entire experience.
