Loved the education on history of Kauai during the cruise through the river. Also fun to see spots where big movies were shot. Crew was great. Opening up on the open water toward the end to catch the sunset was exhilarating. Hold on to your hats. Great for all ages and no problems with motion sickness.
We loved the sunset catamaran cruise and the experience Captain Stevie and his team were wonderful and helped make our anniversary memorable.
The views were beautiful and the hospitality was amazing! I recommend the cruise for families and friends!
We enjoyed our sunset sail…and as Captain Stevie shared he guaranteed 2 things…the sun will set and we would be on the catamaran when it did! While the sun set behind clouds the trip was relaxing and we especially enjoyed the live music and hula! Thank you for helping us celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary ❤️ Mahalo
Lovely cruise up the river. Captain Steve gave us tons of information about the plants and history of the river. It was perfect for anyone who wants to be on a boat but gets sea sick-this is the only boat tour up this river-the boat was specially made so it can navigate the shallow water. The bartender Ryan was very fast as the boat was full. And the MaiTais were really good!!
The river cruise was very unique - beautiful, and learned about Hawaiian / Kauai history and current efforts to restore. Our guide was very funny and warm, everyone was relaxed and comfortable. The drinks were better than expected - not “mixed” in advance, fresh juices, generous pours. The sunset turned into a brief downpour, which was actually fun as we all gathered under the covered space, and the skies afterwards were gorgeous. Gotta love Kauai!
Pretty low key. Guide is very knowledge. You'll enjoy if you want to drink on a Catamarran, otherwise, don't waste your money.
I had so much fun with the captain and his first mate! They made me feel welcome and at home! Like ohana! I will be back and I suggest when you are looking to book a trip you book it with them!!
This was a great tour! Highly recommend! The views were beautiful, and it was educational and kept your interest the whole time. The crew was excellent!
The Sunset Cruise was both fun and informative! Stevie was a great Captain and made our experience very enjoyable!
