Road to Hana Tour with Waterfall Swim, Black Sand Beach and Lunch at Hana Farms

Fun and sometimes wild ride.

Reviewed by: 10th anniversary, 2018/03/03

Awesome tour, great value and the only one that does the full trip not just out and back. Good to have a guide that lived in the area and knew just about everything about everything.

What a wonderful tour!! This was the highlight of our 10 days in Hawaii. Our guide, Gary was great, and the lunch was wonderful on the black sand beach at Hana! Our pilot, Glenda was great! I've never seen such a beautiful place. We will return and do this tour again!

3-Hour Hana Rainforest Tour with Waterfall Swim & Easy Nature Walk - Hike Maui

Easy hike with beautiful scenery

Reviewed by: Melissa, 2018/01/13

The ride up is pretty quick with a nice hike to a beautiful small waterfall. A prefect amount of time to take in the scenery before heading to our next stop. There again the prefect amount of time at the waterfall and an easy hike to and from.

Maui Haleakala Helicopter Tour with Road to Hana Sightseeing & Beachside Lunch

Excellent, well worth the money

Reviewed by: Don Henry, 2018/01/07

My wife, myself and my sister with her husband were able to get this trip. We were told that normally they like to do this trip with 6 people. We had only four in our group but they still ran the trip. We took the early morning van ride to Hana and the helicopter ride back. You can do this trip either way. We had a brand new GMC custom van, it was great. Greg our driver said that this company only has newer vans. The only thing better than a new van was a very experienced driver. Greg was great, he knew all the places to slow down and where you could get the best pictures. My wife and sister are very much into flowers, Greg was very knowledgeable on the subject. Many years ago I drove this road and I missed so much, having a driver/guide is the best way to to this. I have a commercial driving licence so I can recognize and appreciate a professional driver. Lunch was very good and light, you want that for the helicopter flight back. The pilot, Glenda was very smooth and safety was always a big concern. The helicopter company was Blue Hawaiian, top notch outfit. I could not think of one negative comment or even a constructive criticism. Is it cheap no, is it value for your money yes.

  • one of the many water falls on the road to hana

  • they is time to swim in one of the many waterfalls

  • Glenda was our pilot back , very good

マウイ島観光ツアー 天国のハナ リムジンバスでマウイの大自然と歴史を感じる<1日/英語ガイド/朝・昼食付>

ガイドさん、ありがとう!

Reviewed by: Sandy, 2017/12/02

日本語ツアーを探しましたが、時既に遅しで全てsold out! 仕方なく英語ツアーを選んだのですが、私以外アメリカ人のカップル一組だけ。 ドライバー兼ガイドさんが気を遣ってくれて私を助手席に。 さすがに気を抜く暇もなく英語に浸っておりました。 私が日本人なので、とにかくゆっくり分かりやすい英語ガイドに感激。 彼はカリフォルニアから移住して25年のアメリカ人。 英語が分かりやすかったです。 カップルも優しく、寂しさを感じることなく過ごせました。 レインフォレストを抜けてハナに向かう道々も最高な景色でした。 ガイドさんがそこでしか味わえない木で熟れたバナナを食べさせてくれたり、ピュアなココナッツアイスを食べれる露店に寄ってくれたり。 最終的には私が最初にホテルに送ってくれるはずが(カフルイ)、キヘイの夕日を見せてくれるために、アメリカ人カップルがステイしているワイレアに行って、わざわざ最後に送ってくれたり(カフルイまで戻ってくれた!)。 ツアーも人も最高な一日でした。 たまたまかもしれませんが、本当に良かったです。 ここの土地勘が分かる人にはちょっとびっくりかも。 感謝♡

Maui Haleakala Helicopter Tour with Road to Hana Sightseeing & Beachside Lunch

Awesome tour

Reviewed by: HazenGirl, 2017/10/13

It's taken me several trips to Maui to make it to Hana. Why? The idea of spending all day driving my car on a dangerous road with 54 one-lane bridges and 600+ turns (meaning I couldn't even enjoy the scenery) just didn't appeal. But then someone recommended this tour...Instead of driving yourself on this treacherous road (and trust me, with all the amateurs out there it is treacherous), you ride in a comfortable passenger van with an incredibly knowledgeable and enjoyable guide. Instead of driving 3 hours to Hana and 3 hours back along the same route, you take a helicopter for one of the legs and see breathtaking aerial views of this gorgeous island. The tour is well planned, the meals yummy (even the vegetarian and gluten free options were fantastic), and the people were top notch. My only complaint was waiting almost an hour after check in at the heliport to get going. Otherwise, it was a perfect activity.

Reviewed by: Charles, 2017/09/17

Paid the 100.00 for the seats next to pilot only to find out that with 6 people in aircraft someone would have gotten this seats most likely the grandkids I paid for. They tried to tell me "no it would have depended on weight distribution" which actually meant that for the 100.00 I paid they were willing to forgo safety? On the positive side flight was outstanding pilot informative sight you can only see from

Maui Haleakala Helicopter Tour with Road to Hana Sightseeing & Beachside Lunch

Great trip

Reviewed by: Ladd Bodem, 2017/08/28

We loved our combo (Helicopter/Van) tour of Hana. It is the best way to do it. It is a rather long but beautiful drive to/from Hana so taking a helicopter one way and seeing the sights including Haleakala is best of both worlds. Our guide Scott Ferguson (Scotty) was terrific. He was fun, informative and engaging. The Hana area is so beautiful. Hint: if you plan to swim I suggest you bring reef shoes. This was one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommended!

5-Hour Hana Rainforest Hiking Tour with Waterfall Swim - Hike Maui

Super hiking into rainforest

Reviewed by: Venky, 2017/08/01

This is my first visit to a rainforest and I was amazed.

We were picked up at designated location at 930 AM. We then changed to rubber shoes at the office and proceeded to hike. We were given breakfast and started the trail. Looks like it rained heavily the previous day and so we had to cross few streams on our way. The current in the streams were below our knee level but very strong. It was scary. The guide was very friendly, funny, knowledgeable and professional. So we did not have any difficulty. But it was awesome to see the falls full of water and strong currents in the streams. While we were told about occurrence of flash floods, I wonder what life would be in these situations. It was really wild out there, but you are with a professional.

I particularly enjoyed sliding in the water through a tunnel (the guide was there at the other end of the tunnel to stop me from being carried away by the current). My son (29) jumped 20 feet into one of the water fall, the guide showed us twice how to do that. We visited several water falls and I managed to stand under one of those 10 feet tall falls. The guide showed us several varieties of flowers, plants and fruits. We tasted some fruits, and had a good lunch break in one of the falls. The hike was not very difficult but also was not very easy. We returned to our car by 2 30 PM.

Many of the falls are not accessible to public and visiting with a professional is the best way to do it. I strongly recommend the hike to anyone.

There are so many stops along the way and some you don't stay at very long. So go on your own with a rental car so you can see what you want to see. The tour guide was pretty awful and so were the other passengers.

Road to Hana Tour with Waterfall Swim, Black Sand Beach and Lunch at Hana Farms

A Little Dissapointing

Reviewed by: Less Than Expected, 2017/07/19

We took a group of seven people on this tour and some of our group had done this trip previously. The driver had a tough time managing the people on the tour and other guests were up to 30 minutes late getting back to the bus on several occasions. The lunch situation was not good either. We waited in line for 30 minutes out doors in the heat at the one little stand available for lunch. Then sat out doors to eat with no AC and were dripping. On previous tours there were much better lunch set ups. We were never given enough time to get into the water at the black sands or the seven pools. Mostly because other people were late and the driver didn't manage the group well. But what really took the cake was our departure. My 71 year old father and his new wife were leaving and the driver asked if he could "kiss" the bride. She thought he was going to give her a peck on the cheek, but instead gave her a full on mouth kiss. So inappropriate. Too bad we had already tipped him. Not my favorite day on Maui.

5-Hour Hana Rainforest Hiking Tour with Waterfall Swim - Hike Maui

Had a great time, Sarah was a wonderful tour guide

Reviewed by: Stacie, 2017/07/13

My husband, myself and our 11 year old nephew had a great time on our hike. Pretty much everything was as described. We got to go to 4 different waterfalls, got to jump into 3 of them, included a pretty hefty peanut butter and jelly sandwich with a bag of chips, native fruit, lots of water and bug spray provided, and a backpack to keep everything in! The hike was definitely more on the moderate side than the easy side, I would say. My husband and I are fairly athletic and we were both sore and tired at the end of the hike. The nature is amazing. I took about 200 photos. The information that Sarah shared with us was interesting and insightful. She was a very nice, patient and informative tour guide. She was friendly and made conversation, but was not in your face, or invasive when people didn't want her to be. She was also very helpful because she showed the people on the tour the correct places and ways to jump off the waterfalls. I think this helped with some of the anxiety people had. I definitely recommend this hike. It is a little pricey, but it was worth it, and you really get your money's worth. I ended up messing up one of my ears when I jumped off of the third waterfall we found, so the end of the hike wasn't as pleasant for me as the beginning was, but I think that was a random thing that happened. My 11 year old nephew jumped a total of 7 times off the different waterfalls and never really complained about anything except that he slapped his hands and arms on the water (which was more his own fault). The one thing I didn't like was the number of people that were at the waterfalls during our tour. That was something we couldn't really control. There are some "private" waterfalls that we got to see, which, obviously had less people, but still had other people there. I think if you have a choice, go on a weekday, and it might be helpful to go during an off season. We went the day after 4th of July, so it was probably pretty busy.

Maui Road to Hana Luxury Tour with Secret Cave Hike, Rainforest & Waterfall Swim

Great way to see Hana without having to drive yourself!

Reviewed by: Katherine , 2017/06/04

This was a very nice trip to take if you've never driven the road to Hana. There are some 600 turns and 57 one lane bridges, which seemed crazy in a rental car. Downside being If you want to stay and explore - you can't. Beyond that our tour guide, Bill, was very knowledgeable and told us lots of interesting facts. In addition to the Lava Tube Cave (which was very cool!) we also saw the black sand beach and a few waterfalls. Also the swim is cold but refreshing! They feed you so besides snacks you really don't need anymore than what they list when you register. If you get car sick, makes sure to bring something for that!
