3.00We went on a tour with about 40 or so others which is really too many IMO. Started with a visit to an island home where they produce sea salt but weren’t shown the production process which was disappointing. Then to a tea farm where they have about 20 tiny tea plants which are no where near being able to produce anything and tasted some tea made from imported tea. The most interesting stop was to the bee guy, he was very knowledgeable about bees but unfortunately just keeps a couple of hives as a hobby. It wasn’t a farm that produces saleable quantities. It was probably one of the better tours we did but could be so much better.
Informative and entertaining

5.00Our driver Deb was very pleasant. Each of our three stops were informative and we got to try some tasty food, drinks and honey. Would recommend the tour to others.
Disappointing.

2.00This trip was disappointing as we didn’t cover the places mentioned I.e. the distillery. If we had known they wouldn’t take us there we would have gone another day. Whilst the 3 places we did visit did have a few interesting facts we had done better trips
Fantastic tour

5.00Our Taste of Norfolk Tour was a thoroughly enjoyable and informative tour visiting home businesses of the lovely Norfolk Islanders who are always welcoming and accommodating. So easy being picked up at our hotel with a smallish group. I highly recommend this tour.
A small taste of Norfolk.

3.00It was not what I/we expected. Very rustic. The people were knowledgeable. Watch out for prices at Alison's. They are marked up a few dollars dearer than I saw them in the local shops. The best presentation was the beekeeper. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Also gave us a great taste of Norfolk. Lots of fresh island fruit and honey.
A pleasant experience

5.00This is not unmissable, in fact we went along only because we had vouchers. Having said that, we enjoyed our afternoon. Firstly we visited Alison's home to learn about salt production. We tasted a few different products and loved her stories. Alison is very entertaining (and yes she does have the best Loo and better wine). That was followed by a mediocre tea tasting and finally an interesting time with a local honey producer. The venues change over time. It was nice for the driver in our holiday group to have the afternoon off driving and to see the scenery as we travelled between stops. I think it's overpriced and wouldn't be my first choice of tour, but it all gets down to personal preferences.
Information, gluten free food and entertaining.

5.00This was a great tour!! The Tahitian princess was entertaining and informative. The tea production was interesting and the bee keeper was amusing and fascinating. Thank you for providing gluten free food. This was one of the highlights of my trip and as well as being well fed I was able to buy souvenirs for myself, family and friends. Thank You :) Julie
Love that honey. Great tour

5.00The highlight was the bee man who was so knowledgeable and passionate about his subject. Could have listened to him all day and of course the honey was delicious. The tea tasting was lovely and the initiative shown by that young man was impressive. The stories of the salt lady were fascinating
Great tour
