Absolutely beautiful! Pictures do not do the gardens justice. Chocolate and fruit tasting along the way was fun. Tour guide Heidi was amazing and so knowledgeable! The entire team was very accommodating and friendly.

Over $300 for a family of 5 to go look at some plants seems like steep price, but I assure you that the experience at the Princeville Botanical Gardens is completely worth it. We've seen them all: I thought someone would pull my man card the first time we went to a botanical garden on Kauai our first trip a little more than a decade ago. Not only will I admit to this at the sports bar, we've now visited all three on the island and have been impressed every time. Each has a different flavor and we've appreciated each one for their unique plants. Thoughts on this one: This garden is extremely well run and efficient with great facilities reflecting the price. The grounds are probably the most topographically fun with great vistas across the expanse and extensive bio-diversity throughout. The education about chocolate production was interesting however my kids were not fans of the chocolate which all tended toward the darker side. What set this apart: The staff and specifically our docent Trevor was spectacular. I've never met someone who is so clearly made for a particular job. He was so engaging and had a clear appreciation and excitement he wanted to share about every plant on the grounds. The first group of flowers we approached he said "when I go 'mmm' near a plant it is because you may want to take a 'jungle bath' in its essence", I thought "whatever you tall hippie, I'll take a normal bath when I bet back to our condo". By the end of the tour I was ready to ask Trevor if he knew anyone who would buy all my possessions so me and my family could break the bonds of our material things and we can all live together, start a drum circle, learn how to make our own clothes and enjoy daily jungle baths. He was phenomenal. Conclusion: You can't go wrong with any of the gardens on the isle. The chocolate specialty would make the drive worth it if you are a connoisseur. I would come back to this garden again to see Trevor.
