A Very Nice Experience - I really enjoyed being able to take part in this experience. The host was extremely welcoming and gracious, and I could tell that he took joy in being able to show us around the grounds and talk about his farm. On the tour, I had the privilege of tasting multiple varieties of lilikoi in addition to house made syrup, honey, and pastries made with fruit from his farm.

A Magical Laupahoehoe Gem - Our trip to Nakihalani farm was unforgettable! We wanted to experience a true Hamakua Coast farm that grows a variety of delicious fruits and vegetables. Farmer Mike detailed the layout of his land to give us a feel for how Nakihalani thrives as an organic farm. The lilikoi food tasting curated by wife Jackie was heavenly - each item was better than the next! We purchased lilikoi syrup and mamaki tea as a delicious and unique souvenir. I highly recommend this tour to anyone!
