Maui Pineapple Tour

We had such a great time on the pineapple tour! We had Rudy as our guide and he was incredibly knowledgeable about all things Pineapple! The property was stunning and the pineapple samples we got were the best I’ve ever tasted. The dinner over at the restaurant after was spectacular as well. I highly recommend the tour coupled with the dinner experience!

Great tour of field and plant. Little pricey for what it was but still enjoyed it. We have actually odered a case of of these pineapple for my daughter’s graduation. All the way to Canada eh! They were in great shape and delicious.

The Maui Pineapple Tour was amongst the best things we’ve done on Maui! On our particular tour, I was just our four family members which made it extra special! Our guide Rudy, was very personable and knowledgeable having spent 27 years in the business! We got to see the whole pineapple farming process! We even got to plant some pineapple plants! And tasting a pineapple in the field was amazing!

Our tour guide was super informative and polite. Any questions we had he could answer. We got to see all stages of pineapple growth and processing. We even got to taste some fresh fruit and WOW was it good. How does a pineapple taste so much like a coconut?! The gift shop was cute and well thought out with conveniently placed hand washing stations and bathrooms. The restaurant on site was one of our favorite and definitely one we'll be back for. The food and drink was nothing but awesome and totally unexpected from a farm tour. You gotta try the pineapple upside down cake! It's drool worthy.

Loved loved loved this tour! Had a great tour guide (Brian) so knowledgeable and funny! Got to stop and get out to see fields, eat pineapple and got a free pineapple already made up to take home on flight! Would 100% recommend this tour! Also got to see workers in action! Great tour for the price!

I loved this tour. It was the perfect length for our layover in Maui. Our guide had so much knowledge on pineapples and the process of farming them. We got to try them fresh as well. After they gave us two boxes of pineapples to take on the rest of our vacation!

We had a fantastic experience visiting the Maui Gold Pineapple plantation in Maui! Our guide, Rudy, was incredibly knowledgeable — his years of hands-on experience growing pineapples made the tour truly special. We learned so much about the process, from how many pineapples each plant produces to the best time for harvesting and what causes them to turn yellow. One of the highlights was getting to plant our own pineapples and sampling some of the fresh fruit — absolutely delicious! Rudy also shared fascinating stories about the history of the plantation and the surrounding area, which made the tour both educational and unique. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Maui. It’s a wonderful way to gain a deeper appreciation for this iconic island fruit and the people who grow it.

A wonderful experience while staying here in Maui, well worth the price of admission. So much to know about pineapples that you didn't even know, you didn't know! Tour guide, Brian, was knowledgeable and entertaining, explaining the whole pineapple growing process from a starter slip to the store shelves. Left with a whole new appreciation for this delectable fruit... Plus, a pineapple to take home!

Great tour. We learned more about growing and processing pineapples and the pineapple industry. In addition, we got to see Pineapple plants up close from the start through ready to harvest. Great tour guide as well.

This tour was so educational honestly my husband and I feel like pineapple experts now! Lots of great pineapple tasting on the way and you get a pineapple on the way out! (Packed for TSA)! 100% recommend to anyone traveling to Maui! Tour guides were sweet, educated, and personable! This is also locally owned and operated by Native Hawaiians completely now and is the 2nd last pineapple farm in the US and last pineapple farm on Maui!! I bought a pineapple for this Christmas for all my family members and they all loved them so much!

my friends and i loved the maui pineapple tour!!!! our tour guide was informative and personable. we checked out the factory and two fields: one where baby pineapples were growing, and another where the big pineapples were growing. we even got to try some pineapple in the middle of it! the tour guide transported us around in a bus with A/C and cold water. we even got to take home a maui gold of our own, well worth the price!!!

Brian, with an I, led our tour and was wonderful. He was so informative and entertaining. We learned so much about choosing a good pineapple and how to grow them. He made me wish i had a green thumb. The pineapples that we sampled, and brought home, tasted amazing. We will be ordering more. As someone that deals with travelers, I will gladly share my positive thoughts on your tours with anyone headed your way.

Very well organized, excellent information. Easy to get around, an absolute must do for anyone! I have a farming background so it was even more interesting to see other types of farming.

We took this tour in January and absolutely loved it! Our guide was so knowledgeable about the farm, taking us through the growing and harvesting process. I had no idea pineapples made flowers! Also loved eating the pineapple right there in the field. It was perfect. It's a great experience for both adults and kids. I highly recommend it.

Highly recommended pineapple tour. Don't let the price deter you, worth every cent. You get a pineapple and is shipable or just eat it ! It is the sweetest I've ever tasted. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, as she grew up on the farm and knows the trails and tribulations of the business. When you visit Maui, this is a must do !

My girlfriend set up a pineapple farm tour while we were in Maui. We planned to go on our last day on the island so that we could bring fresh pineapples home with us. We had a fantastic tour visiting the processing facility and fields. Tasting various pineapples at different flavor profiles. Learning about the color of the fruit as it relates to the sugar to citric acid balance and how that relates to the flavor of the fruit. After the tour was completed we were each given a pineapple to take home. Once in the gift shop we had the opportunity to purchase additional pineapples as well as various gifts. I highly recommend the Maui pineapple tour.

I went on the Maui Gold Pineapple Tour for the first time and was blown away--not just by the incredible pineapples, but by what I learned about the industry behind them. The tour itself was fun, informative, and well-run. You get to walk through the fields, see the process up close, and taste the freshest pineapples you'll ever try. Maui Gold pineapples are on another level--super sweet, clean-tasting, and almost floral. The grounds even smelled like cotton candy. It's truly unlike any subpar pineapple you've had from the mainstream grocery store. But what really stuck with me was the behind-the-scenes reality. We learned how Dole still has a grip on Hawaii's agriculture through laws that prevent future pineapple farming once operations like Maui Gold shut down. That means when Maui Gold is gone, that's it--no more pineapples from Maui. It's heartbreaking and frustrating to hear that this iconic part of Hawaii's heritage is being priced out of existence. Even more concerning is the human side: the workforce is aging, and there's no one to replace them--not because there's no interest, but because young people simply can't afford to live here and work in agriculture. It's a stark reminder of the broader issues Hawaii is facing when it comes to sustainability and protecting local industry. This tour gave me a deep appreciation for what Maui Gold is doing, and a sobering perspective on how fragile it all is. If you're visiting Maui, don't miss this tour. It's not just about tasting incredible fruit--it's about understanding the bigger picture and supporting something truly local while it still exists. If you know anyone with deep pockets please let's increase wages, build comfortable local housing that workers and their families can utilize and let's keep Maui Gold alive and thriving!!!

Great tour, very informative and I really appreciate the pineapple even more now! Kennedy was full of knowledge and so passionate about the pineapples and Maui Gold as a company and family. After hearing about all of the hard work and challenges that Maui Gold has faced I just have so much gratitude and respect for this farm. We got 6 pineapples for our family and we have already finished 4 of them. They taste amazing, sweet and fresh and I am even eating the core now that I know all of the benefits that come with it.

We learned so much about how pineapples are grown and harvested. It takes a lot of hard work! We have a greater appreciation for pineapple now. Our guide, Shiloh, was super knowledgeable and friendly. The setting overlooking the mountains and sea is beautiful. We recommend this tour and hope the pineapple business on Maui survives for years to come.

100% recommended! Brian was the best tour guide who made this experience amazing! He was super friendly, knowledgeable, funny and dynamic. My bf really wanted to come and visit where he orders pineapples from so we had to come. I had no real expectations for the tour and was pleasantly surprised by the experience. The time flew by, we learnt a lot about pineapples and we got to taste some fresh pineapples! The store also has a lot of cute souvenirs and if you buy pineapples there, you can choose your own pineapple.

Highly recommend the Maui Pineapple tour. We learned a lot about how Maui Gold pineapple is grown. Rudy our guide was so fun and informative big shoutout to Rudy.

This tour is a MUST DO! It was a 90 minute tour that explains the process of the pineapple farm, stages of the pineapple and best part... Pineapple tasting !! It was fun and who knew there was so many interesting things about the pineapple. The views of the island from the farm are amazing and the tour guide was full of knowledge. Maui Gold pineapples are not your typical grocery store pineapples, they literally are like gold and so delicious ! After the tour I was gifted a Maui Gold pineapple to take home!! and I perused around the pineapple shop, which had so many cute things for purchase! I will be stopping by the shop to purchase a pineapple to bring home on all of my future visits to Maui.

This was an amazing tour. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the plantation itself and the growing of pineapple. Tasting freshly harvested pineapple was a real treat! My husband and I each got a Maui Gold pineapple to take home. It was worth our time and money spent.

What a fantastic birthday experience! We took the Maui Gold Pineapple Tour and was blown away by the dedication it takes to grow these delicious fruits. From seedling to harvest, it's a long journey filled with meticulous care. I had no idea it takes nearly 18 month to grow a perfect pineapple! Serious stuff! If you're ever in Maui, this tour is a must-do. You will receive one Maui pineapple to take home. We carried on two pineapples in a box back home to Vancouver, BC. Make reservation online with @mauipineappletour next time you're in Maui!

This was a nice, informative tour. We did really learn alot. The pineapples were fresh and tasty. You can definitely tell the difference vs. store bought ones!

Brian was Wikipedia on pineapples! Let's just start with that I had no interest is going. But the boyfriend wanted to so, ok, we went. And I'm so glad I did! It was super interesting and I have no regrets! A must do; support these locals!

Great experience. Colton our tour guide was great and explained the entire pineapple growing and harvesting process. It was also cool to get a fresh pineapple at the end of the tour that we could take with us on our trip home. Great for our family of five with two 14 yo and a 12 yo. All our kids found it interesting.

Great tour. I would definitely recommend this tour. Brian did a great job as our tour guide--information, levity, etc.--and the pineapple was wonderful.

The farm tour was hosted by a very friendly and knowledgeable guide and it was quite impressive to learn how long it takes one pineapple to ripen and the work that goes into it. Absolutely delicious pineapple and the dinner included with this tour was delectable. You sit for dinner with the rest of the tour group and it was great to meet fellow travelers and hear their stories. A must do experience. You get to take home a pineapple too. Dress in layers. I was glad I had a sweater when wind kicked up and it started to rain.

What a fun educational tour. Arrive on time/early because I arrived about 2 minutes early and they called me to inform me the bus will leave exactly 5 minutes after the reservation time. Example our time was 1:45 and the shuttle left promptly at 1:50pm. They start by taking you into the small factory and give everyone a free pineapple to take home (it's already TSA/culturally approved for airplanes). After the guide will take you to the fields where you get to get pictures as well as taste three different types of pineapples, green ones, gold ones, and a mix of gold/green. All were delicious and we learned so much about how to pick pineapples at the super market. A pretty reasonable experience for the $95pp price point. FYI - I found a code online (ABENITY). Worth a try if it still works but it was 15% off which is a nice savings.

So their pineapples are truly spectacular and unique, their shop is really great, their staff are very pleasant, but their tour is really expensive and I cant justify it as much I wanted to do it

We had Brian as our tour guide. He was great we give him 5 stars out of five. The most delicious pine apples ever!

This tour exceeded my expectations. Brian (with an i not a y) was fantastic - the right mix of knowledge, sarcasm and humor. I really knew nothing about how pineapples are grown, their history and how strained the current farming industry is - drought and lack of historical skill being passed down to a new generation. Would recommend anyone who loves to learn and wants to be ruined for all future pineapple in their lives! It's just so good here I expect nothing in future to live up to what I tasted in the field

We booked their tour online with the dinner next door at Hali'imaile General Store. They have a regular tour of the farm with no dinner as well. I LOVED this tour & it is definitely worth it. Your start point is at the Maui Gold Store and then you get in a small van to transport you up to and around the farm. You make 3 stops- first one where the pineapples are flowering, second where the pineapples are ready to pick, & third is at the packing factory. I loved seeing the flowering stage- it makes for beautiful photos. Second stop is where you get to try the Maui Gold. Our tour guide was Rudy- he is fantastic, funny, & very knowledgeable. I really enjoyed the education behind the tour of the farm, growing a pineapple & what it takes to get it to your door. There are 4 men over the age of 60 who hand plant the pineapples- that just blew my mind. We also get a pineapple at the end of the tour that is airplane ready. After the tour they bring you back to the store where you can shop & then we had our dinner next door. Parking- they have their own parking spots

If you're looking to do something in Maui, I 100% RECOMMEND you do this tour. The pineapple is the best I have ever had and you get to know a bit of history of the pineapple. Brian with an 'I' is an excellent tour guide. You also get to take a delicious pineapple home.

Rudy, our tour guide was seriously knowledgeable and provided an interesting, informative, and friendly 1.5 hour tour! I learned so much about pineapple farming! Their pineapple is absolutely the most delicious pineapple I have ever tasted in my 69 years of life! The cost of the tour included a pineapple boxed so that I can take it on board my plane as I return home. I can also order this delicious pineapple and have it delivered to Indiana in 72 hours. This tour was well worth my time and the price!

I never knew there was so much detail to farming pineapple! The Maui Gold process is sustainable and the tour explains so much about history and the difference btwn this high quality pineapple and what you get in the grocery store on the mainland. Impressive! Of course, as many have already mentioned, your own freshly boxed pineapple is included with the tour

Great tour! Loved the experience, and especially the delicious free pineapple. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

Great family tour! Online booking was easy. Plenty of parking in the lot. Easy check-in and a big retail store to look around in while waiting. Tour was facilitated via some walking, and via a mini-shuttle through the farm/plantation. We stopped in several areas to see the different stages of the pineapple, and towards the end of the tour, we were able to try fresh pineapples - delicious! Kennedy, our tour guide, was thoroughly informative, and quite the talented pineapple cutter (with a machete)! At the end, Kennedy took photos of us with my camera phone, as well as with their camera, and we were sent a link to a digital photo with the Maui Pineapple logo in the corner. The tour seems pricy but I think it's worth it because you get a pineapple to bring home (in your checked bag), to grow your own pineapple! I don't know if I have the patience to try in Vegas but at least I have the opportunity :)

Short, fun informative tour. We learned all about how pineapples are grown and harvested in Maui. Then we traveled into a field to see pineapples growing, sample some pineapple and take pictures of pineapple flowers. At the end of the tour, each participant received a pineapple to take home with them. Our tour guide also shared the pigeon (?) English he learned growing up -- that was also interesting. The shop also has a nice array of products.

What a great adventure our Pineapple Farm tour was today. Our guide, Kennedy, was fantastic. She shared not only her knowledge of pineapple but many backstories and interesting information on pineapples and the wonderful people of Maui. She actually grew up on the farm and as part of the larger community are working hard to preserve the Maui pineapple business and traditions. The store has many wonderful gifts including shirts, food items, books and more. I would encourage you to make some time to take the tour and experience the best tasting pineapple around.

We had the most wonderful time during this tour. It was super engaging, interesting, and tasty as we tried pineapple during the tour and got to take a full pineapple home with us! Our guide was so friendly and knowledgeable, and made the entire experience fun for everyone. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Maui.

Brian was a friendly, fun and knowledgeable guide. We learned so much about growing and processing pineapples, and left the tour thoroughly impressed! The best part was sampling pineapples in the field, and getting two pineapples to take home with us as part of the tour!

The tour is educational and entertaining with breathtaking views from the farm. Brian is an excellent guid. He has a great sense of humor and we learned lots as well. The tour is just the right amount of time and such a treat that everyone in the party gets to take home a pineapple as well. Highly recommend.

Purely amazing. Booked it the day before and it was worth every penny. Informative and fun! Planting gave you a perspective...great for all ages. I'm now a huge Maui Gold fan...book the trip you won't regret it! Thx Rudy and team!

very informative, interactive, lots of photo opportunities and everyone gets a pineapple at the end!

Tour was led by Rudy a former owner and he was just awesome. He was very knowledgeable and entertaining and he tied the whole tour together very cohesively. He had us all convinced we could truly grow our own pineapples and we plan on trying. The tour is in a small tour bus and of course there are the pineapples you take home at the end. We would def take the tour again with Rudy. There is ice cream next door a distillery close by and shopping close by in Makawao. The place where you meet for the tour is easy to get to and also has shopping inside with lots of pineapple products. We had a great time loved the tour!

Great experience on learning about the Maui Gold pineapples ! I learned so much and Kennedy was such a great tour guide! This is one tour you must do when visiting Maui!

Excellent tour with lots of interesting info on growing pineapples and the business of pineapple farming in Hawaii. My wife and I each received a Maui Gold pineapple at the end of the tour, which was incredibly delicious.

Awesome experience to experience Maui's largest and oldest pineapple farm. Our tour guide was funny and informative. Our bus was probably about half full which was perfect. During the tour we were able to get off the bus to take pictures, try pineapples and tour the factory. The gift shop was cute and there is a distillery and tasting room if your group is of age for either pre or post activity. Definitely recommend to add to your list. We received TSA friendly boxes to take some pineapples home with us.

We really enjoyed the few hours we spent here. You'll board a little bus & drive the farm. We did not see pineapples being picked or packaged the day we visited but we did see workers picking & planting slips in the fields. The view is beautiful & it's neat to see pineapples at various stages of growth. You'll learn a bit of history and get to eat a pineapple & take another with you. You can also ship pineapples from the store there.

Brian was a great tour guide who was very knowledgeable and entertaining. I highly recommend booking this tour when visiting Maui. Best tasting pineapple I have ever had.

Love this place! It was so much better than I that. I came with my boyfriend just to check it out. It was sooo informative and the pineapples are delicious! We got to sample some in the tour, but we also bought some fresh cut up slices for the road and we both got one to take back to the home with us (don't worry, they are TSA compliant)! We were heading to Oahu for 4 days after so I was worried that they would be spoiled by the time we got back to Pasadena but they were perfect! We shared them with family and everyone loved them! They are my favorite pineapples now, I don't want anyone else's! Tour guide, Brian was good too! Very humorous and well versed on pineapple knowledge

Very informative. We learned a lot about the history of the area and the people we never would have known otherwise. Highly recommend. ( plus they give you a pineapple) :)

Really enjoyed the tour. Brian shared a lot of information with quite a bit of humor. Pineapple tastes amazing. Beautiful land overlooking the ocean and mountains. I was particularly interested to learn that while pineapples don't require any pollination to produce fruit, they do become seedy with pollination. For this reason and thanks to Dole, hummingbirds are not allowed on the island. Because they are such great pollinators of pineapples, they turn them extremely seedy. I did see honeybees pollinating the pineapples, so if you get a seed in your pineapple here and there, you can thank a honeybee. Why 4 stars? OK. You give an entire tour with all the tips on how to pick a great pineapple. You totally turn me into a pineapple snob. Then, I get back to our condo and find that the free pineapples seemed a little old or perhaps picked too late or both. Don't get me wrong, they still tasted fantastic, but they were just a little less good than the "perfect" one we tasted in the field and I was kind of expecting the pineapples in the box to match the description of what we were just taught.

This was an exceptional tour with a very personable and knowledgeable tour guide. She shared historical, cultural and local community information that kept the tour engaging. It was a treat to visit the farm and also taste the famous Maui Gold, so incredibly delicious! Definitely a MUST on a visit to Maui... AND you get a free Maui Gold packaged to take with you on the plane with the opportunity to purchase and ship more as souvenirs!

A delightful and informative tour of the operations and fields at the pineapple farm. Best part was tasting fresh pineapple in the fields with views from the mountains to the sea.
