Dorothy and Barbie - Greatest time with Carlos! Sister and I enjoyed the private tour with Abalone eats after, it was delicious and informative to learn. Very much mahalo

Great experience at the Abalone Farm - A very interesting tour led by our guide, Kai. Approximately a half hour Uber ride from Kailua pier in Kona, my husband and I (in our 70’s) thoroughly enjoyed this one hour walk around (with a cane) tour of the farm. Kai explained in detail many things about Abalone, how they mate, grow and taste. We purchased a few souvenirs and had lunch next door at the Kona BBQ food truck. Great experience , highly recommend!

Fascinating and Interesting - We needed something to do to kill time before our flight home and decided to take this 1-hour tour and then barbecue our own lunch before getting on the plane. We didn't really want to know how abalone was cultivated...we just wanted to eat some because we knew that it was good already. Our tour guide, Carlos, was very knowledgeable and personable. It actually turned out very interesting and hands-on. Because we were the only people on the tour, we had a private tour. My husband ended up talking to Carlos about surfing since he surfs, too. The abalone was so ono (delicious) that we're planning to order some and have shipped directly to us. I want to try cooking the seaweed in an egg omelet like Carlos spoke of and also cooking it with cheese. Mmmmmm! We didn't do the barbecue after because my husband didn't want to get all hot and sweaty before getting on the plane. I'd highly recommend this tour for anyone, especially if you just like to learn. It opens your eyes to another world you never knew.

Excellent experience - The tour was extremely interesting. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. This was my second tour and I will go again the next time I am on the island.

Favorite tour of the trip! - Carlos gave a very informative and interesting tour of the farm. He let us be interactive with the abalone and sea life. We really appreciated his knowledge and passion. We will recommend it to anyone going to Hawai’i!

Super interesting one hour tour! - We really enjoyed this tour. Our guide Carlos was really funny and knowledgeable. We learned a lot and got to try abalone!

Great tour and use of the natural resource - Actually the second time that I’ve done the farm tour. Wanted our guest to experience it. It’s a fascinating process. Great use of the natural resource. The grilled Abalone are really good.

Great interesting visit - We visited the abalone farm tour today in Kona. We are old enough to remember diving and barbqueing them In So CA. (70'S) today we learned that the Japanese abalone are being farmed. We saw the whole process. Tour guide was thorough and interesting. So glad this is happening. So sorry we loved them them to almost extinction. Hoping people see the need to protect our ocean. I'm glad this tour was full of interested people

Wonderfully Great Abalone Tour - best hr spent!! - Wonderful tour with a lot of information about their farm, the abalone life cycle, the seaweed growing farm and their processes. Loved it!!! The guide Kai was very knowledgeable and made it fun and interesting. You have a chance to touch live abalone, see moving creatures and the best thing - eat abalones cooked different ways. We also got a chance to see live, moving sea creatures such as sea urchin, black star fish, sea cucumber, and jelly fishes. Highly recommended this tour for folks of all ages.

Eat Abalone - The abalone farm was nice. Never seen one before. Was hoping for better samplers to test. Next time we will just eat next door and use the tour money to buy abalone to eat
