Comments about Smart Destinations Dole Plantation: Pineapple Express:

My wife and I toured the Dole Plantation while on our honeymoon. We went to several places but really enjoyed our time at the Dole Plantation. We attempted the maze without much success. We also took the short but beautiful train ride. You must have the pineapple ice cream before leaving. It is amazing! Be sure to read about our entire honeymoon on our blog at centralbeat com
