SUNSET ALLERTON ESTATE TOUR - an intimate experience
Delight your senses at a truly magical time of day. Imagine yourself visiting the Allertons through private invitation. Venture beyond the golden bamboo forest, along a gentle stream, and past the guest house where such notables as Jacqueline Kennedy once stayed.
Walk across the expansive oceanfront lawn and get an inside peek of the estate home with the Allertons' personal collection of paintings, pictures, and memorabilia. Share in the Allerton story and enjoy appetizers and beverages on the lānai while the sun sets.
Allerton Garden is tucked away in the secluded Lāwa‘i Valley. Tour check-in is at the Southshore Visitors Center, a short distance from the Valley rim. Your tour includes Garden transportation into and out of the Valley, along a spectacular scenic route.
This location managed by the NTBG for the Allerton Gardens Trust.
