Step into our one of a kind open air Safari truck and head out back into the beautiful fruit orchard where you will see exotic fruits like Lychee, Longan, Cashew, & Mango growing on the trees. Later in the tour you might even taste some of these fruits in your farm to glass cocktail.

After tasting some rum, you will also enjoy our signature Mai Tai. Relax and enjoy your Mai Tai as you hear the river flowing past our Jungle Bungalow.

For those feeling adventurous, your guide will give you some feed to interact with the friendly animals. Take a minute to look around and enjoy the scenery. Your knowledgeable guide will fill you in on the past and present history of agriculture here on Kauai. We wouldn't have rum if there wasn't sugar cane.

One of the longest cultivated crops grow in Hawaii is Taro. This was the main staple of the Hawaiian people. At our Loi Lanai (Taro Porch), your mixologist will whip up a farm to glass cocktail that will knock your socks off. We are talking about a drink made entirely from fruits and herbs that are grown right on the plantation. It doesn’t get any fresher than that. This stop is definitely a Kodak moment.
