Fantastic!
A fantastic small group tour with our guide Carly. We enjoyed the authentic tastes in every restaurant all of which we would never have visited if it wasn’t for our tour. Every restaurant was unique and paid homage to the diversity of culture and cuisine in the area. The last stop at the brewery was a great finale. Our guide Carly was the best and made the whole day even more memorable.
Operator response
Mahalo for the wonderful review! 🌺
We’re thrilled you enjoyed Authentic Taste of Maui and loved discovering local spots you wouldn’t have found on your own. Karli will be so happy to hear she made the day memorable—and we agree, the brewery is a perfect finale! Hope to see you again on Maui.

Had a great day sampling local foods.
Excellent variety of flavours with our guide providing information on the origin of the food and connection to the island of Maui as well as the history of the location of our tasting.
Enjoyed gindui, malassadas, banana pancakes, loco moco, poke, shave ice, bbq pork and fish tacos amongst other yummy treats. Our tour guide Carly kept a good pace and a fun atmosphere throughout. 5 stars

Karli was a fountain of information- sharing facts about the area and the delicacies we shared. It was obvious that she has a great relationship with the restaurants which ensured we had a seamless experience. I would highly recommend taking this tour with Karli!

Best Maui Food Tours
We have been on Food Tours throughout the world, and this was one of the best ones we have gone on. Karli was fantastic! And the food was incredible.
We would not have gone to several of these restaurants if it wasn’t for this tour. The narration was informative and fun!!
Karli made the tour group feel like family! We enjoyed laughs and sharing our life experiences. O’hana!!
We would take this tour again especially if Karli was our guide!
Operator response
Thank you, Karen! We’re delighted that the Authentic Taste of Maui tour stood out among your many food tour experiences.

Ask for Quinn
Our guide, Quinn, was great. He took us to places where the locals eat and we never would have found them on our own. We sampled many of the foods we had read about or seen on tv and he also shared some local history and culture.

At Stardust Hawaii, we love giving guests a taste of local culture, history, and, of course, amazing food. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Quinn.
