The positive reviews for the Rum Safari sucked me in, and the experience did not disappoint! The…read moreRum Guys, Bruce and Tanji, led us on a delightful journey through Kilohana Plantation with detailed info on the history, animals, and plant life there at the plantation. We especially enjoyed touring the orchard, including the banana slap experience (!!!), and learning about different types of fruits that can grow in the Kauai climate. The rum tasting also did not let us down. We sampled different flavors of Koloa Rum (the safari and the Rum Guys are unaffiliated with Koloa Rum, which had a separate tasting room and shop on site), followed by a Mai Tai and an additional fresh cocktail. Bruce and Tanji were excellent guides and comedians, delighting my whole party, which contained a range of ages and senses of humor. My uncle was really impressed with their ability to read the room and crack exactly the right jokes to make all of us laugh. They were also incredibly informative and provided local tips on where to go (and where to avoid) next. Mahalo, Rum Guys!!

Booking we thought, drinking and animals were worth the price of admission but the tour is more than that. I can't praise our amazing tour guides, Tiny and Rick, enough. They were knowledgeable, hilarious, and incredibly kind. Rick educated us on all the agriculture grown on the farm which was fascinating, and was able to answer any questions anyone threw at him. The mai tais were obviously amazing but their original farm cocktail was knock your socks off good. If you're considering booking, do it right now! The four of us who went talked about it for the rest of the trip- I can't recommend it enough!

Gives lots of information about the ride options, availability, other key info. Once we were signed up, good reminders, easy to complete online paperwork. All the ease was a sign of a well run company and team. Day of, check in was easy, and staff was warm and cheery - especially at 8am. Was impressed by their pre-excursion presentation. Was clear, informative, and helped us know what to expect, how skilled the team is, and how best to enjoy ourselves. The guides for our waterfall trip were fantastic. Ryan and Cousin Giggles are careful but fun. We felt really safe no matter how crazy the ride got, we knew from minute one Ryan knew his stuff, and that let us trust him and ourselves to just have a blast. Both Ryan and Giggles shared tons of great info and personal anecdotes. It added to the adventure even more. Grateful for their sharing bits of themselves with us. The ride itself was epic. Great machines, well cared for, and the planned paths just amazing. Fun, rugged, but safe. We saw amazing sights, had so much fun zipping down some rocky, muddy trails, and covered tons of beautiful acres. Ending at the final waterfall and having a chance to jump in was so special. I cannot say enough how stunning the views were, at the same time the ride was just so much fun. From start to finish, and very minute in between, we just enjoyed ourselves, our other riders, and especially our guides Ryan and Cousin Giggles. If you're considering a trip with Kipu Ranch, consider no more. Book it now before you miss your chance. Will be a trip highlight no matter what else you do!

I recently had the chance to experience the off-road waterfall tour with Kipu Ranch Adventures, and…read moreit was hands down one of the highlights of our trip to Kauai. Our guide, Kimo, who has been with the company for 19 years, was absolutely incredible. His experience and passion really showed, and his deep local knowledge from living on the island, made the tour not just fun but genuinely informative and educational. He shared so much about the land, the people, the history and culture that it made the entire experience feel authentic and meaningful. The off-road vehicles were comfortable and well maintained, and very easy and fun to drive which made navigating the terrain even more enjoyable. You really get to experience parts of the island you wouldn't otherwise experience. The waterfall swim at the end was the perfect way to wrap up the tour. Relaxing, refreshing and just an unforgettable setting. From start to finish, everyone at Kipu Ranch Adventures was amazing. Their professionalism, friendliness, and passion for what they do really stood out. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to have an unforgettable experience on Kauai.

There were three standout moments for us: snorkeling alongside sea turtles, witnessing two incredible pods of dolphins in their natural habitat, and being dipped into the famous fertility waterfall--a memory my husband and I will cherish forever. The Na Pali coastline is absolutely breathtaking. Seeing the towering cliffs and dramatic mountain ranges from the water gives you a whole new appreciation for just how vast, rugged, and remote this part of Kauai truly is. It's incredible to imagine what life must have been like for those who once called this coastline home. We can't recommend Napali Experience enough. Thank you to Kylie, Jay, and the entire team for creating such a memorable and once-in-a-lifetime adventure!

We had Captain Dan and Colline as our tour guides they were phenomenal. My dad got seasick halfway through the ride and Colline was so sweet. She even had Ginger chews for him.

We also got to snorkel for just a bit! Overall this new form of boat felt less turbulence. The views were just stunning would come back time and time again best Nepali Coast experience ever!

We'd hiked the Kalalau trail earlier in the trip, which made seeing it from the ocean extra special. Lucky enough to see some Spinner Dolphins early on, and to have a fun group aboard. Pre-treating for seasickness with meclizine worked well. Saw plenty of beautiful sea birds and ocean caves. Would do it again in a heartbeat.

Just note, if you want to do a free rum tasting, which is a separate business at the building next door, they close at 5:00p and you will need to book online for the free rum tasting, and not just walk in with no reservations. You get a tour on the train of the entire gardens and see a variety of plants and trees. The highlight was the stop to feed the animals. You throw tortillas at piggies, and feed hay to the horses, cows and goats. The horses are so friendly, they eat out of my hand. Since we couldn't get a reservation for free rum tasting, we just paid $27 or $28 for the rum tasting at the restaurant on site. The rums are superb. See separate review for the restaurant.

Captain Max was incredible--his sense of humor kept us laughing even as the rain and mist rolled in. The two women on the crew (I wish I could remember their names) were fantastic, making sure everyone was comfortable and answering all our questions with a smile. The playlist on board was spot on, setting the perfect vibe. I wish I could find it on Spotify! Despite the weather, the views were breathtaking, and getting a little drenched just added to the adventure. The food was delicious, especially the smoked pork, salad, and fresh fruit, and my husband loved the mai tais. Even without the sunset, the whole experience was magical. After chatting with other travelers, I'm convinced we had one of the best tours available. especially after talking to a couple at our hotel pool who had paid more than we did and only got snacks limited alcohol. I can't recommend Holo Holo Charters enough, and I'm already looking forward to trying their breakfast or snorkel cruise next time. If you're looking for an amazing adventure, this is it!

It was raining when we had our tour. The boat is covered and when you're in the fern grotto there are so many overhanging trees that we didn't even feel the rain. This boat tour was very relaxing and informative. The boat moved at a slow pace - even my husband who has motion sickness was able to enjoy this boat ride. On the way to the fern grotto there are stories of places you're passing as well as Hawaiian and festive (it was the holiday time) songs. It's a family run organization and many generations are involved in this tour. On the way back home there are more songs and dances and everyone gets to learn how to dance the hula. You get to disembark the boat and take a short walk to the fern grotto. What a beautiful place! So much greenery. The only way to get to this grotto is from this boat tour, so it is a peaceful and uncrowded place. We're glad we took this tour and recommend it as a fun and low stress activity on the island. It's good for all ages. There is plenty of free parking. Free cold water is available on the boat.
