5Great tour. Everything...
Great tour. Everything you’d want to know about the chocolate making process. Was equivalent of a wine tasting.
5Exceeded our expectations!
We toured in Oct 2026 about a month after the Hurricane. They’ve worked hard to recover and are going full force! Can’t say enough good things about this excursion. It’s a must-do in Kauai imho. All 4 in our party agree that Mason was the most entertaining and informative guide, the grounds were beautiful, the tastings were generous, they thought of our comfort by providing nice big umbrellas for shade (or rain if needed), fans, water jugs to refill your bottles, botanic bug spray mist (smells great) in the multiple tasting locations on the grounds. Mason noticed that I was fanning myself a lot and took it upon himself to get on his radio and request a colleague to bring a battery-powered fan with a mister!! WOW!! It’s a little hike not too strenuous. Such an amazing variety of flora. We tasted so much fruit, a bunch of honey and a LOT of chocolates and macadamia nuts. This ARTISAN chocolate tasting is divine. We all bought a lot of chocolate at the end and they packed it up in weather-proof cute bag with ice packs!! Well worth the price of admission!
5Chocolate, Honey, Fruit Farm Excellence.
Sunscreen needed. Guide Jess was very knowledgeable & made things super interesting. Samples were ample. Those with mobility problems were supported by staff. Outstanding!!!
5A must have experience if...
A must have experience if you are visiting Kauai. Sheri was an amazing tour guide that taught us a lot about chocolate and Hawaiian plants present on the farm. I would recommend wearing shoes that can get wet and/or muddy.
5Agustus Gloop (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) Would've Loved This Experience!
Despite the heavy rain, we had a wonderful time on the Kauai Chocolate Farm Tasting Tour. Plus, we were so happy to support them after Hurricane Nolo! You felt the ohana spirit as soon as you arrived and while driving to the Farm. Our guide, Jess, was wonderful, informative, and so accommodating. You get to learn a lot about chocolate and the regenerative, sustainable practices at Lydgate Farm. But, most importantly, you got to eat plenty of chocolate. You also got to try lots of local fruit and learn about many indigenous plants. If you're on Kauai, this is a must-do, and you should bring the entire family. With the deluxe tour, you'll get a large bag of chocolate items you can mix and match as you please. All the workers at Lydgate are committed to growing and producing some of the most delicious craft chocolate, and you can taste the difference. If you are a chocolate aficionado, don't miss this tour!
5Jess and the all tastings were incredible!
We were so impressed with our tour guide, Jess, who was incredibly knowledgeable and lots of fun to spend the afternoon with! The tour was amazing and all the tastings were incredible. Couldn’t believe how many wonderful things we got to try, from fruit grown on the farm to a large variety of chocolate and macadamia nut treats. Highly recommend!

About Kauai
Kauai, known as the Garden Isle, is Hawaii's oldest main island, a mountainous place of waterfalls, sea cliffs, a vast canyon and quiet beaches.
Kauai is the northernmost of Hawaii's main islands and the oldest, worn by millions of years of rain into deep valleys and jagged green ridges. Mount Waialeale at its centre is one of the wettest places on Earth. The towns are small: Lihue has the airport and harbour, Kapaa and Hanalei have shops and cafés, and wild chickens roam freely.
Top-ranked sights in Kauai: Na Pali Coast, Waimea Canyon, Mt. Waialeale.
