Spend the day on the historic McCandless Ranch in South Kona! You and three friends will get a special tour with ranch manager Keith Unger, who will share the history of this 100-year-old ranch. He'll talk story about the early days of roping wild cattle, as well as the current cow calf operation. You'll be taken makai to the rarely accessible Kalahiki Beach coastline and then mauka for hiking and bird watching in the Honokua rainforest.
