Come for food, passion and care - Max was so well informed not just about food but local traditions, culture and history. He came with a passion for food and Kauai. We tried some new food like delicious taro fritters and had the best poke and grilled cheese. We always try to do a good tour in a new place because it gives us a mush deeper and personal understanding of the area and this was exceptional. I highly recommend and were very grateful to Max. He was easy to talk to and was a fountain of information and really took care to give us a great experience.

Interesting location but disappointing tour - We were disappointed. We had understood it was going to be a tour of restaurants and assumed there would be samples or small plates at each stop. We were given an entree and side dishes at our meeting location. That was filling. Next we walked to our next stop and had taro fritters. Then we walked back to our meeting location and could choose anything from the Aloha Fruit Bar. Then we met up in a peaceful and shady location to enjoy that treat. We walked next to a chocolate shop and tasted the delicious chocolate. That was the end of our tour. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable and provided lots of information at each stop. However I didn’t sign up for just an hour of friendly conversation. I had hoped to sample a variety of good. So we were very disappointed.

Disappointed at Hanalei - We came expecting to go to multiple restaurants and have small plates to sample. Instead we had 4 stops. The first place we met we were given an entree with sides. That was a complete meal. We then walked and had taro fritters. Next we returned to our starting location and chose something from the Aloha Juice Bar. Our last stop was a chocolate shop and we sampled their candy. That was it. I was very disappointed. The guitars kind and interesting but I thought there would be more stops.
