Kauai's First and Only Food Tours - Tasting Kauai - Hawaii

Looking for an unusual way to spend the afternoon while tasting some of the best that Kauai has to offer? Try taking a food tour with Tasting Kauai. I knew little about this company until Stephanie Michel (photo above), a fabulous concierge that I recommend to my Honu Point guests, raved about the experience she had while taking each of the five food tours around the island.

This is what stephanie posted on her Facebook page: "This is new FAVORITE TOUR!!! It's a FOOD TOUR! They have several tours and I DID THEM ALL. They have them Saturdays/Tuesdays/Wednesdays/Thursdays and Fridays. NO EXCUSES! 5 TOURS TO CHOOSE FROM. (FIVE!) This is the best way to meet locals/See places there's NO WAY you could otherwise see and get an insiders EDUCATION on what is going on here on Kauai. AND THE FOOD IS THE CHERRY ON TOP. IT'S ALL DELICIOUS! Not to mention the sweetest most knowledgeable guides I HAVE EVER MET ON KAUAI. I am going to scream this tour off my roof top!"  Yes, Stephanie tends to get very excited about Kauai activities.

I talked to Stephanie about her experience and, after participating in all five food tours, she chose the South Shore Food Tour and the West Shore Food Tour as her favorites. Tasting Kauai offers each food tour in the afternoon; times vary depending on the tour. Foodies drive in their own car (Exception: West Shore is a walking tour) as the guides lead them to places on the tasty treasure map. At each stop someone intimately involved with the food production sets aside special time to talk with, and answer questions from, the group. Because there is a maximum of 14 people on the food tours, participants are given personal attention at each stop. Tasting Kauai calls it a "culinary romp through paradise." What a wonderful way to spend that last day on Kauai before getting on your long flight home in the evening.

Kauai Horseback Riding Entails Complete Family

You can take the whole family on an outdoor tour when you take part in Kauai horseback riding. Additionally, when you include in the natural charm of the "Garden Isle" named Hawaii's Kauai, it equals a vacation event that's not only a grand adventure, but something to recall for several years in the future.

Actually, cattle, horses and cowboys go back a long ways into the history of Hawaii and Kauai. The paniolo, or Hawaiian cowboy, is derived from the vaquero, or Hispanic cowboy coming from California and Mexico. One feature of the Hawaiian language is that it doesn't include an "s" sound, so espanol becomes paniolo in Hawaiian. Captain George Vancouver provided Pai'ea Kamehameha, the leader of Hawaii, with cattle that by the early 1800s numbered so many that they were destroying the flora. An English sailor who ran away from his ship, was given permission by the Hawaiian leader to bring together the cattle and start the island's first cattle ranch in the early 1800s. In 1832, Mexican vaqueros were brought to the islands to instruct the local Polynesian people tips on how to take care of cattle. Today's paniolo has styles of clothing that resemble the Hispanic vaquero of a century ago in California and Mexico. The noho lio, or Hawaiian saddle, contains a distinguishing Spanish American appearance.
