About this experience
Experience the intense flavors of fresh hibiscus along with our flowers in syrup, preserves and tea, while you’re guided through our estate greenhouse and outdoor exploration garden. Everyone is familiar with the showy hibiscus flower, but we mainly grow the edible kind called Hibiscus Roselle. Roselle is a tropical plant historically used for medicinal purposes and still has many health benefits today. Actively enjoy both our indoor hydroponic farm and outdoor garden we use for multiple edible varieties. Savor the taste of each of our specialty products grown, harvested and produced right here on the farm. Immerse yourself in a behind the scenes tour of our farm with a 45-minute light walking tour with firsthand explanations from the owner, followed by hibiscus tea and other unique snacks. Take pictures and enjoy all the views of both the farm and ocean, all the while engaging in Q&A. We invite you to enjoy this uniquely tropical plant.

Not what I expected.
This farm was not what I expected. I heard hibiscus and just assumed but greenhouse full of large flowy flowers! We got an in-depth tour and experience with edible hibiscus! Completely different type of flowers! Sarah spoke in length about the history of her farm and the broader history about the farming of that area of the big island. Most of the tour was inside the greenhouse in comfortable chairs. Towards the end we got to try her hibiscus products in multiple different ways. They were all unique and delicious.

Unique experience at the hibiscus farm.
Love this tour. Everything that you want to know about edible hibiscus. Tasting is at the end, after farm touring; great products. Definitely will use at home.

Perfect Family Activity
Our family of 4 had a wonderful day touring the farm. Our guide, Susan, was kind, patient, funny, helpful, warm, and genuinely informative. We have a 10 year old and an 8 year old and they both said this is one of the highlights of our trip. Such a beautiful and peaceful location and the perfect way to learn more about Hawai'i. 8 thumbs up!

Loved the tour!
Wasn't sure what to expect from this but it was so informational and fun. The owners are great and very knowledgeable. If you have time in your vacation, I would recommend this little gem.

Edible Hibiscus! Why YES! A must visit when on the Big Island💚🎉
Susan is a great host and farmer ! Educated us on the ‘edible’ aspect of Hibiscus and also history of the surrounding area. She and her husband tend the farm with loving care and are responsibly Eco friendly. 🥰 The ‘hibiscus’ flower is not the one we see along roadsides and in neighborhood gardens. Its unique look can be immediately identified. And the pods left after the flower falls away is the goodie (calyx)! Her husband picks these gems and they make tasty preserves and teas 🥰💚 We highly recommend a tour and a taste from Susan’s farm🎉

Why this scores 77
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Edible Hibiscus Guided Farm Tour (Big Island): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Big Island of Hawaii.
How much does Edible Hibiscus Guided Farm Tour (Big Island) cost?
+
Prices start at $36 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Big Island of Hawaii usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Edible Hibiscus Guided Farm Tour (Big Island) take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Big Island of Hawaii is not rushed.
Is Edible Hibiscus Guided Farm Tour (Big Island) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 39 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Big Island of Hawaii, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Edible Hibiscus Guided Farm Tour (Big Island)?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Edible Hibiscus Guided Farm Tour (Big Island) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Edible Hibiscus Guided Farm Tour (Big Island)?
+
Around 14 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Big Island of Hawaii can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Big Island of Hawaii and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Edible Hibiscus Guided Farm Tour (Big Island) start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Big Island of Hawaii within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Big Island of Hawaii?
+
The Big Island is volcano country: Hawaii Volcanoes National Park tours, Mauna Kea summit stargazing, night manta ray snorkels off Kona, Waipio Valley lookouts and coffee farm visits. Summit tours have real altitude rules, so we weight safety detail. On Outty we rank every Big Island of Hawaii experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include KONA Manta Ray Night Snorkel - FREE re-ride if no Sightings, Big Island in a Day: Volcanoes Waterfalls Sightseeing and History, Big Island: Captain Cook Snorkel On A Power Catamaran With Lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Big Island of Hawaii?
+
April to October, though the island runs year round. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Big Island of Hawaii?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
