Real pure chocolate is such a gift!! - We learned so much about farming on Kauai - cocoa and fruits and honey. The chocolate grown there has changed our minds about good chocolate. There were a ton of different tastings. Well worth the visit - leave room in your suitcase!!

FANTASTIC tour !! - This ended up being a family favorite of all Of our Hawai’i excursions! (We also visited Oahu and Maui) and we all hands down agreed that Mason absolutely made it what it was! He is witty and his knowledge is over the top. He kept us laughing. We had a group of 65 yr old grandparents, a couple in their 30’s, and a family of 4 with 11 and 13 yr old boys. So we spanned all age ranges and interests. You truly get A LOT of chocolate tasting, as well as honey and fruits. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kauai , for an over arching agricultural and food experience of Hawaii ! Only ONE downfall… The port o potty restrooms 😷🤢

No guilt trip eating dark chocolate. - We needed an activity while waiting to get to the airport. This was an extensive tour of how chocolate is made. It might be too long for some people with children. We thoroughly enjoyed all the educational information.

So much chocolate and more! - The tour was amazing. Sheri is a wealth of knowledge. She gave us an indulgent experience, sampling exotic tropical fruits, local honey, and a full chocolate panel; we didn’t think we even had that much to room for chocolate! Beyond exquisite. Sheri was super kind as well - very approachable and considerate of the group. The chocolate itself (as I’m assuming that’s the reason of the tour!) ruined all commercial chocolate for us. 10/10 would recommend.

A must for chocolate lovers! - Extremely educational experience about the Hawaii agriculture and the rise of curated chocolate. Definitely a must for chocolate lovers. The 3 hours didn’t feel like 3 hours at all

Great tour, hope you love chocolate! - Great walking tour of the farm. Learned a whole lot about the cocoa bean harvesting and processing and about different types of chocolate and regions. Amazing tour guide, Jenna, she was funny and a wealth of knowledge. You get quite a bit of little chocolate variety tastings so you can see what you like and what different processing does to the flavor, so you better like chocolate! They hinted at opening a second tour after the processing areas were renovated and we would probably come back for that too!
