Up Country Farm Tour

This scenic farm tour of the Hawaiian Upcountry will give you endless opportunities to take pictures and video of its beautiful scenery. From the cruise pier, travel through the last working sugar plantation in Hawaii and learn about the history of sugar in the islands before beginning your ocean-view tour through the old town of Paia. Travel upcountry through the old pineapple camp, where twelve hundred acres of MauiGold pineapple grow and provide MauiWine with fresh pineapples for their winemaking.

Then head to Alii Kula Lavender Farm for lavender coffee or tea and scones, and a walking tour in the gardens filled with lavender and an impressive amount of foliage and produce, including edible flowers, vegetables, herbs, bamboo, olive trees, macadamia, citrus trees, fruit trees, avocados, proteas from South Africa and Australia, and young stone fruit. Take some time to shop in the beautiful lavender boutique.

Make your way to Ulupalakua and stop at Ulupalakua Ranch Store and MauiWine for lunch, followed by an optional wine tasting for an additional fee. This is a charming old Maui Ranch where you'll enjoy your choice of Maui cattle burgers with grass-fed beef, or a garden burger for vegetarians. The wine-tasting room at MauiWine is in the King's cottage. Wines can be sampled and purchased in the beautiful gift store.

After lunch, stop at beautiful Kula Country Farms, where they lease over 180 acres to grow an incredible variety of fruits and vegetables, and raise goats and chickens. In this most beautiful setting on the mountain, strawberries can be picked from February through May, and pumpkins are harvested in September and October. Stop in the quaint farm stand overlooking all of West Maui for one last photo opportunity before returning to Kahului.
