We had a great time and learned a lot. It was really fun trying so many superfoods at a time! They show more than they advertise for which is really cool! Including the tasting! I would definitely recommend!

Saw this on the Food Network when Guy Fieri & family visited - and with the very close proximity to the airport (as in the next exit down) it seemed like a great way to kick-off my Big Island holiday. Arriving early there's a food truck directly in front serving tasty abalone-based concoctions (pictured was abalone poke) - after that Carlos conducted our tour that lasted a bit over an hour... very informative, got to handle abalone of various sizes along with an assortment of other sea life - then concluded the tour with a tasting. Very glad I went!

Very good tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. We even got to taste a sample of the abalone. Excellent.

Tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable. Thought maybe there would be more to see but the tasting at the end was great!

Learning about abalones, touching them then eating them was a great experience! I wasn’t too sure if my teens would like this, but they both had a great time. The guide talked too fast to catch everything, but he was funny and had a good sense of humor.
