We tried at least 12-15 different kinds of fruits and it was really fun. The group size was nice and the atmosphere was really cool too. There were some mosquitos, but there were bug spray wipes available for purchase. Highly recommend for kids and adults! Cute gift stores on the drive there.

Loved this experience. The owner and helper were knowledgeable, funny, kind. Even though I lived in Hawaii for three years I tasted fruit I had never seen! Would definitely do this fruit tasting again. Highly recommend and also good for kids.

The exotic fruit tasting tour on the Island of Hawaii offers a truly unique and memorable experience for anyone interested in the island’s rich agricultural and cultural heritage. This tour allows guests to sample a variety of fruits that are widely used across the island, many of which may be unfamiliar to visitors. The host stands out as both knowledgeable and engaging, offering detailed explanations about the fruits and weaving in interesting facts about the island’s history and Polynesian traditions. This makes the tour not just a tasting event but an informative journey into the local culture. The tour lasts approximately one hour, making it an ideal activity for those looking to experience something different without a major time commitment. In summary, this is a well-organized and highly informative tour that I would recommend to anyone visiting Hawaii. It is perfect for food lovers, families, and anyone interested in learning more about the island’s culinary traditions.

We appreciate your feedback and will continue to look for ways to improve the experience for all of our guests. Warm regards, Aloha Adventure Farms

Fruit Tasting

Terri_S, Apr 2026
This was by far one of my Favorite things to do in Hawaii. We had a great time and learned so much about each fruit. Some fruits were juicy and sweet and others I will pass on. But overall a wonderful experience. It’s a must try in Kona.

Mahalo for your kind review! We’re so happy to hear this was one of your favorite things to do in Hawaiʻi. It’s always fun discovering new fruits. We’re glad you had a great time and appreciate you recommending us!

Fun excursion

Brenda_D, Apr 2026
The fruit tasting was something very different to do than your traditional tourist outing and that is what drew us to it to begin with. It was worth it. Very informative and fun to try fresh fruit from the island. All of my family enjoyed this excursion very much and would do it again.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

An adventure!

Sally_M, Jan 2026
Being from the Midwest we rarely get any of the fruit we tasted so it was a little bit of an adventure. Glad we did it.

Tasty experience!

Ashley_G, Dec 2025
All three of us enjoyed this fruit tasting experience a great deal. None of the problems that we read about in previous reviews were present today. We were provided with bottles of water and there were citronella candles burning to keep the mosquitoes away. We got to try so many things: two kinds of papayas with calamansi (lime) and two kinds of coconut (cotton candy and dwarf Samoa), apple bananas, ice cream bananas, star fruit, cacao, rambutan, longan, snake fruit, lychee, lilikoi, mangosteen, white guava, four kinds of mango, two kinds of dragonfruit, abiu, jabocitaba, tamarillo, and durian. We finished off with an air dried macadamia nut. We would definitely do this tour again in a different season. Our tour leader Leah was very knowledgeable about the fruit being presented.

Very enjoyable...

tolauriehotmailcom, Nov 2025
Very enjoyable experience! Lots of different fruits to try, guide was knowledgeable and fun to listen too.There was a family there who had visited a few years back and was returning to for a visit!

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Delicious Fruit Tastings

Len, Aug 2025
We enjoyed being introduced and tasting the many different fruits that are grown on the big island. The weather was was somewhat wet and they took things under cover.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Mahalo for your review! 🌺 We’re so glad you enjoyed tasting the variety of fruits grown here on the Big Island—it’s always fun to discover new flavors. Sorry the weather didn’t fully cooperate, but we’re happy we could still keep the experience comfortable and enjoyable under cover. We’d love to welcome you back on a sunnier day for even more fruit and fun! 🤙

Would do it again!

Beth_J, Aug 2025
It was so much fun. Wasn’t sure if my teenagers would enjoy it but they were totally engaged and asking for more fruit. We had a blast!

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Mahalo for sharing your experience with us! 🌺 We’re so happy to hear that your teenagers enjoyed the tour and were excited to try more fruit—it’s always fun to see families discovering new favorites together. We’re thrilled you all had a blast and hope to welcome you back for more adventures soon!

Exotic Fruits - Divine!

Emily_M, Jul 2025
My son loves fruit and to try all this amazing fruit, many he has never tried before, was totally awesome. Delicious! We loved learning about the fruits and cracking open macadamia nuts and coconuts! We got an added bonus of trying the miracle and panama berries! They also sell some wonderful dry roasted macadamia nuts in their gift store. The little tour to see vanilla, cacao, and apple bananas was great too! Being super obsessed with tikis, we appreciated the waiting area.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Mahalo for your wonderful review! We’re so glad you had a had a blast tasting all the unique and delicious fruits! Come visit us again soon—there’s always more fruit to taste and fun to be had! 🍍🌺🥥

Don’t Miss This Tour!

Michael_K, Jul 2025
This was an amazing tour that I highly recommend to others. We tasted about 20 different fruits, most of which we had never heard of, and ate the best mango we had ever had! I opened a coconut with a Tongan blade - so cool! We also had a short walk around the fruit trees and bushes on property with our very knowledgeable and friendly guide. We took home extra fruit and enjoyed it on the beach the next day. A GREAT experience. One suggestion…put mosquito repellent on your legs. My hairy legs got bit up, which never happens usually.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you so much for your kind and detailed review! We're thrilled to hear you had such a memorable experience—tasting exotic fruits, enjoying that unforgettable mango, and trying your hand with the Tongan coconut blade! It’s wonderful to know you connected with your guide and even took fruit to enjoy on the beach the next day—sounds like the perfect island adventure. Great tip about the mosquito repellent—thanks for sharing that with future guests! We hope to see you again for another flavorful tour soon! 🌺🥭🌴

Underwhelming exotic fruit tour

Diana_L, Jul 2025
We thought we would tour a farm where the fruit we would be tasting grew. Sadly, that was not the case. We got to sample exotic fruits while sitting on a picnic bench for the entire tour. The teenagers were very disappointed. A farm adventure or experience was what they were expecting. With the help of the guide who has printed paper, you will learn about exotic fruits. Furthermore, the cost per person was high. We could have gone to a really nice dinner for what we paid for our family to be part of this experience. As a whole, I wasn't impressed. While the fruit was great, it wasn't what I expected in terms of a tour.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for joining us on the fruit tour and for sharing your thoughts. We're sorry to hear that your experience didn’t fully meet your expectations. We want to share that most of the fruit we serve is grown right here on our farm. Because the tour is limited to one hour, we collect the fruit beforehand to make the most of your time with us. Our goal is to provide guests with a wide variety of fresh, exotic fruits and to share the stories behind them in a way that’s both educational and enjoyable. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope you'll consider giving us another try in the future. Mahalo for visiting!

Life gave me lemons.... so I made a punch and spiked it!

Honesty_S, Jun 2025
The whole experience was one of a kind. Everything was super fresh and the women (I'm sorry I forget your name) was very informed on everything and pleasant!

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Mahalo for your kind words! We're so glad to hear the experience felt one of a kind and that everything was fresh and enjoyable. We'll be sure to pass your compliments along to our team—especially the wonderful woman who guided you. She’ll be thrilled to hear she made such a great impression! We hope to welcome you back again soon for another unforgettable adventure! 🌺🌿
