We arrived at the farm out of the blue, not even on a schefuled day for tours. We still were very well hosted and got a very interesting little tour. Would absolutely recommend !

The Hamakua Chocolate Farm tour was an amazing experience. It’s like the Garden of Eden, combined with a chocolate tasting. They shared their experience of growing and producing fine chocolate. Well worth the time and money to visit!
