What People Are Saying About Dole Plantation
The Editor
Eric Grossman
Citysearch
In Short – Curious about the pineapple? Visitors heading to or returning from the North Shore can stop at the Dole Plantation for a train ride, garden tour, or a crack at the World's Largest Maze. The narrated Pineapple Express goes through pineapple fields, presenting a unique insight into Hawaiian agriculture. Visitors learn the history of the Dole enterprise, from a small farm to the world's largest producer and marketer of pineapples. The garden tour features a variety of pineapples and a fish pond. The plantation shop features gifts, snacks, and the refreshing frozen DoleWhip treat.

Fun and Interesting BUT absolute tourist trap
by reyrey333
If you ever have walked into a mall shop specializing in useles junk, such as Sharper Image or the Hello Kitty store or Aaahs, this place is just like that. But, instead of vibrating pillows and Picachu pens and motorized fingers, it's all pineapple. Pineapple t-shirts, pineapple pens, pineapple hot sauce, pineapple reading lamps etc etc. I would still recommend going if nothing else to say you've done it as well as to check out the grounds. The maze is interesting (no, i wont go with the "aMAZE-ing" cliche), the fish in the pond are crazy for food and the store is eccentric. I did like the pineapple slushy though. Plus, its a good stop before continuing on to North Shore.
- Pros: pineapple slushy, lots of cool krap
- Cons: tourist trap, lots of cool krap
