We had Kai and Ellie as our tour guides and they were super great! Would recommend 100%. Learned about some Hawaiian food heritage and was shown some of the best spots in town!

Excellent two guides, Ellie and Kamakea, who were kind and attentive to everyone’s need. The route seemed much longer than about a mile. The guides made adjustments to those who walked slower. Food was ready and delicious. Drinks were yummy!!!! Thanks for keeping everyone hydrated with water at every spot. Excellent, satisfying experience! J and Di

Ellie and “K” were amazing guides for our Kona food tour. They shared their knowledge and love of Kona and introduced us to food, culture and places we likely would not have otherwise enjoyed. Highly recommended!

Food stops were amazing, and we loved the food at every stop. The avocado fries at Papa Kona's were unique and amazing. The Kona Inn Mai Tai set an incredibly high bar. The tour finished with delicious gelato at Gypsea Gelato, try the butterfinger and toasted coconut. Kai and Ellie were friendly and very knowledgeable about the Island's history. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Loved this tour! Ellie was a great guide, she shared info about the food, restaurants, Hawaiian history, and also shared Spam musubi and longan fruit with our group during our walk. All the stops shared their specialties with us. Loved the avocado fries at Papa Kona, mai tails at Kona Inn, to name a few. It was all good! Highly recommend this tour.

Kamakea and Kris were fantastic guides. The Tour showed us great places to eat and the food was fabulous! I enjoyed Kai’s pizza the most. We had avocado fries which was a first for me along with great tasting gelato at the end. I did not expect to have so much food. The pace of the tour was good- just enough time to enjoy the tasting and hear about what we were having. We heard some history as we walked. It was about a 4 mile walk today. If I could give the tour more than 5 stars I would!
