The tour lasts about 4 hours, with pickup at various hotels and the dock... More

Wonderful experience to go to three different homes and have freshly prepared food: brunch type food, snacks, entrees and desserts. Small group experience (no more than 12 or so). There is a selection of 15 homes for the tour to choose from, so each tour is a bit different. Great mango gazpacho and passion fruit mousse. Our tour had places... More

I wrote a Review but couldn't get it to submit. So forgot what I wrote! Anyway, it was a great tour and I would do it again next year in Kona. However, wouldn't recommend it for children or the "meat and potatoes only" type of people. You have to enjoy trying different foods (but all delicious). Small portions each house,... More
