Sign for Maui chocolate and coffee tours with cacao and coffee beans, surrounded by autumn leaves.

August is one of the most beautiful times to visit Upcountry Maui. Warm sunny days, cool mountain breezes, and thriving tropical orchards make it the perfect season to experience a private farm tour unlike any other. At Maui Chocolate & Coffee Tours at Kupa’a Farms, guests enjoy an unforgettable journey through one of Maui’s most unique regenerative farms while learning the fascinating stories behind two of the world’s favorite treats—chocolate and coffee.

Discover Maui’s Hidden Agricultural Treasure

Nestled on the slopes of Haleakalā in beautiful Kula, Kupa’a Farms offers breathtaking bi-coastal views, rich volcanic soil, and an ideal climate for growing cacao, coffee, and a wide variety of tropical fruits.

August is an exciting time on the farm. Our cacao trees continue to flourish, blossoms can be found throughout the orchard, and many of our fruits are reaching peak season. Every tour offers something a little different depending on what Mother Nature has in store.

A Private Farm Tour Designed Just for You

Unlike large commercial attractions, every experience at Maui Chocolate & Coffee Tours is completely private. Your group receives personalized attention as you explore our family farm with your guide.

During your visit you’ll:

  • Walk through our cacao and coffee orchards.
  • Learn how chocolate and coffee both begin as fruit.
  • Discover the history of cacao and its importance throughout ancient cultures.
  • Participate in making a traditional ceremonial cacao drink.
  • Taste chocolates from around the world.
  • Enjoy freshly brewed 100% Maui-grown coffee.
  • Sample seasonal fruits and farm-fresh flavors when available.
  • Meet some of our friendly farm animals.

Whether you’re celebrating a honeymoon, anniversary, family vacation, or simply looking for something unique to do on Maui, our private tours create memories that last long after your vacation ends.

Why Visit Maui in August?

August offers ideal conditions for exploring Upcountry Maui. While many visitors head to the beaches, Kula provides cooler temperatures, fresh mountain air, and spectacular panoramic views.

It’s also a wonderful time to experience Maui’s agricultural side and support local farming. Visitors leave with a deeper appreciation for sustainable agriculture and the incredible work that goes into producing every cup of coffee and every piece of chocolate.

Sustainable Farming with Aloha

At Kupa’a Farms, we believe healthy farms create healthy communities. Our regenerative farming practices help protect the land while producing high-quality cacao, coffee, fruits, and vegetables.

One of our favorite partners in the orchard is the Madre de Cacao Gliricidia tree, often called the “mother tree.” It provides shade and wind protection for our young cacao trees while naturally enriching the soil, allowing the orchard to thrive.

Reserve Your August Tour

Summer is one of our busiest seasons, and private tour availability is limited. We encourage guests to reserve early to secure their preferred date.
