The tour of the botanical gardens was beautiful and Harold was the BEST. Very detailed, open to answer any question and very knowledgeable of the flowers, plants, trees and the land. If you're looking a beautiful tour with a great guide...this is the tour for you.

We recently enjoyed a walking tour of the Princeville Botanical Gardens with our guide - Mary Lou. She was very knowledgeable about the many fruits, plants and history of the Gardens and of our Island, too. We enjoyed tasting the variety of fruits and ESPECIALLY the chocolate! Mahalo nui loa!

My wife and I aren't huge nature lovers but thought this would be a nice change of pace. The tour guide was amazing Harold I think?, the property really is impressive, and the chocolate tasting was a great time. We did the morning tour so we're at the pool relaxing in the afternoon. Made for a great day. Highly recommend.
