3 hours FLEW by! - Amazing and educational experience. Our whole family, especially 9 and 11yr olds LOVED the tour! Between trying local fruits and learning about how tricky growing quality products are, to seeing how chocolate is made, our family was enthralled the whole time. Our 11yr old is even dead set on coming back and working here one day. Would highly recommend and will be doing again! Also… the cacao juice popsicles… heaven!!

Chocolate Lovers Must Stop! - We now know more about the fascinating growing and producing of cacao and chocolate than we imagined possible. And if you love plants and tropical fruits, this is as good as any botanical garden. The farmers know their stuff and clearly love sharing their knowledge. The chocolate was some of the best we’ve ever tasted, so much so that we had lots of it shipped home to continue to enjoy. The tasting journey was fantastic!

Great tour! - Our guide Sheri was great. Lots of good information & plenty if tastings. Even friends that normally don’t think they like chocolate were surprised how much they are now a fan. I didn’t realize that “craft chocolate” was even a thing…

Memorable family visit - The tour was interesting but too long for what it offers. We learned about other fruit as well and tasted it. The chocolate tasting should be combined with something so that participants don't leave feeling mildly nauseated. Also, a bottle of rum was prominently placed on the table and never offered. Not sure what the purpose was. The guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant. Her manner of delivery though was on point for 5-year-old children, something irritated all of us adults throughout the 3 hours. The fee is too high for what we got but then again, so is everything in Kauai. The group was too large and the tastings of tiny proportions took too long.
