The Vanillerie was an interesting farm with delicious products. The information provided by the guide was fascinating but after taking many, many tours in many places, my husband and I agreed that our particular guide was not the best presenter. Still, it’s a unique farm and there is a little photo booth offered as well as a vanilla ice cream tasting.

Very informative and entertaining tour! It was amazing to find out how much time and effort goes into the vanilla making process. Candee was a very knowledgeable tour guide and answered all our questions. Loved the recommendations to mix the ice cream with the other vanilla products (ie vanilla salt/coffee rub) at the end of the tour; very tasty!

One of our favorite places that we stopped at during our honeymoon. We scheduled a tour and Candee was our tour guide and she was wonderful. So passionate about vanilla and the farm, she recommended the lotions and body scrubs which are amazing! We cannot wait to make our own vanilla extract at home with the kit!

My family and I stopped for an impromptu visit after we noticed The Vanillerie sign. We arrived in between tours, but the proprietor graciously gave us tour so we wouldn’t have to wait an extra 40 minutes for the next tour. The tour was fascinating! We learned how intricate the process is to harvest and produce.In addition, the vanilla products in their ship are outstanding. This is an outing that all ages will enjoy. Don’t miss out on the delicious vanilla ice cream that you receive at the end of the tour!!

It was amazing to learn about the delicate and manual way to grow vanilla beans! The staff was so nice and knowledgable (Steve!), and we could see that a lot of love was brought to this place and to everything that was done there. Nice photo booth! We visited the Vanillerie a few hours before our flight, it is very close to the airport. We absolutely recommand.

Really fun and interesting. We had a slightly shorter tour because of the young children and it was perfect. We appreciate that the staff was so accomodating. The ice cream was delicious and we bought some vanilla and vanilla infused honey. Yum.

Candee and Steven were wonderful hosts at the Big Island Vanilla Farm. Candee was a very knowledgeable, professional and pleasant guide and host. Who knew so much was involved in growing and making vanilla. Many thanks to both of them and the rest of the staff for such a pleasant and informative day.

This tour was fantastic. We are so happy we booked this tour. Largest Vanillery in the United States. Our guide was very knowledgeable, answered all questions and we even got ice cream samples made with real vanilla. Great experience, would highly recommend to anyone!

After a fantastic tour of the Kona Salt Farm we discovered the Vinillerie was just 5 minutes away. We missed the tour BUT Steve was kind enough to give us a brief overview of what they do and why vanilla is the 2nd most expensive spice on the planet. The vanilla ice cream was incredible as well as the high-quality products available for purchase.

Overall this tour was FANTASTIC and well worth the tour fee. If you have an interest in culinary or even gardening you will find this tour fascinating. Our tour guide Candee was exceptional. Candee gave us a 360 degree lesson on everything about vanilla. The history of vanilla. Horticultural and agricultural discoveries and challenges of growing the plants. A complete run down of the process of taking the raw bean and turning it into the final vanilla bean product. Candee was very knowledgeable and enjoyed fielding our questions. I highly recommend this tour.
