Join a Honolulu chef for an intimate guided walk through the vibrant stalls of Chinatown, tasting Hawaiian sea salt, fresh poke, tropical fruits, and local artisan foods before sitting down to a curated farm-to-table lunch.
What to expect
Your culinary guide leads you through Chinatown's covered markets, where vendors hawk just-caught ahi, rare Hawaiian fruits, and fragrant leis. Along the way you taste fresh malasadas, lilikoi (passion fruit) preserves, and expertly marinated poke from a family fishmonger. The tour culminates at a celebrated farm-to-table restaurant in the arts district where the chef prepares a three-course lunch using ingredients sourced that morning. Wine or local craft beer pairings are available.
Good to know
Chinatown is a 15-min walk or 5-min rideshare from Honolulu's cruise piers — one of the most convenient excursions on this list. Morning market tours (9–11 am) catch the freshest produce. Book the private option directly on the Honolulu Food Tours site for maximum flexibility.
