This tour was perfect for us. We didn't want to wake up 2am in the morning to catch the sunrise, so we booked this tour instead. It was the most beautiful sunset I've ever seen in my life. Definitely an unforgettable moment for me and my wife. If you are a late riser like us, this is a great tour. The dinner was delicious too. Bring a jacket as it gets really cold at the summit.

What a great and entertaining show. We did the VIP package and would highly recommend. It was 98 degrees so a little overhead cover would have been nice for the early part of the show but it was dark soon so it did cool off. The food and drinks were great. The dancers/entertainers were top notch. It was nice that after the show you would mingle with the dancers and get pictures taken. Very pleased and would definitely recommend this luau to newcomers to the island

Despite early morning raindrops, we were able to lift off and see the island via the helicopter. Our pilot was so knowledgeable and smooth operator but I still got motion sick from the excursion. My hubby was glued to the windows and loved every moment of the trip. I loved everything I saw even tho I wasn't feeling well. Great job by the pilot on all the knowledge he had on the islands

FANTASTIC RIDE!
But because of weather over Hana/Haleakala we had to go in opposite direction over West Maui/ Molokai.
Next time in Maui we'll try Hana route again.

The view was amazing and it will stay with me forever. I was definitely bundled up and ready for the cold, so please do not underestimate your need to wear VERY warm clothing. It is 100% worth the early pick-up time. You won't be disappointed.

Thanks to everybody for permitting me to feel part of the great game of life.
Waiting for the sun up on the mistic Halekala was one of the biggest emotions of my life. As the sun rose, the colors changed and a native Hawaiians sung a traditional chant that still sounds in my soul.

We went to Maui for our much needed getaway for our 5th year anniversary, and my wife was very specific about going to Old Lahaina Luau. She did her homework and made our reservation at least 2 months in advance. Yes, she's a planner!
I've been to a luau on Oahu on our previous visit, but boy, Old Lahaina Luau exceeded our expectations. The sunset over the Maui ocean was spectacular, and the food and the entertainment was just top-notch. There was never a dull moment, and the staff was always around to ask you if we needed anything. We just loved these beautiful hula dancers, and they were very authentic.
If you come to Maui, you need to go to Old Lahaina Luau. Don't expect to get a seat on the night of. I saw some people who just showed up without a reservation as we were checking-in, and nope, there was no seats for them. You need to make a reservation far in advance for sure, and it's so worth it.

We loved the luau and hope to attend this event again someday. The food and drinks were excellent and the service was first class. I especially enjoyed the master of ceremonies or host because she was very warm and welcoming to listen to and you could tell she was passionate and knowledgable about this event. We would definitely return.

Enjoyed this tremendously! The sunrise at Haleakala is as spectacular as everyone says it is.
Our guide (Bob) had a lot of humour, was well-informed and passionate, and gave us the freedom to go where we wanted to during the actual sunrise instead of having to stay at a designated spot.
Included breakfast was decent too.
The early wake-up is well worth it. Don't miss this when you're on Maui.

Expectations where high when we set out for this sunset tour 30th of december 2014 but there were no sunset to be found. A cold front passed Maui this evening and we were sitting in the bus at the top of mount Haleakala for 50 min just watching rain and wind passing by in cold , cold weather.
The guide did a fine job trying to fill out for the missing sunset but was up against uneven odds.
So be aware of the weather conditions since this can reduce the value and outcome considerately.
We were very surprised that the operator didn't cancelled the tour or at least warned us about the conditions so we could have a choice to participate or not.
The dinner was fine but surprisingly enough we didn't have much time to enjoy it so we was in a bit of a hurry to get finished in time

My husband and I were doing our 1 year anniversary during this trip. The crazy early hour was insane but well worth it. It was beautiful watching the sun rise as someone sang a native song. Our tour guide was amazing always had some new fact or funny story to say. He had us laughing quite a bit. Especially his jokes that would catch us off guard through the drive. "Men are from Mars women are from Visa" still makes me giggle. Now my husband is telling that to everyone! The breakfast was good at a local golf course. I'd go again only for our driver I think he was the best part of the entire tour. He was worth every penny. A great tour guide makes all the difference. Thank you!

So we got up at 2am to get ready to get our bus. We took the bus up the mountain. We arrived and stepped off the bus to like 40 degrees!! 40 degrees in Hawaii? Yes when you are 10,000 feet up!! Duh!! Forgot my jacket but bought some souvenir sweatshirts in the visitor center :) so remember your jacket.
We stood and watched the sunrise and it was worth being cold for an hour. What an experience. Will do it again for sure!

I am VERY disappointed with this Luau. I have attended many luau's in Maui and this was my second time to this one and I will never book again. The guys performance was way better than the girls. The luau seemed shorter than the last time and of all luau's I have attended. We paid ALL this money for 3 of us. It was NOT cheap. 200.00+ dollars is quite much when your expecting a good show. Every luau I have been to, we were able totake pic with. This time NO1 did. All the dancers left. We paid for our "luau" picture and our 7 yr old son was soo excited because he thought he was going to be able to take pictures. We went to Maui on our honeymoon last yr and attended The Royal Lahaina and it was so great. It felt like how a luau should. The experience was amazing. We took pic with the performers and our son saw the pictures and wanted to do everything we did. I attended the drums of the pacific in 2007 with my late brother who recently passed and it was great. I wanted to go to this one to reminice about my time with my brother. Needless to say I hate posting a bad review because I love Hawaii. My sons first time in Hawaii and THIS was suppose to be the highlight. :/

なんとなく時間は、分かるもの!!
山頂での軽食も温かい飲み物もあって嬉しかったし
やや雲が多めだったけど、サンライズも見れたし
ゴルフ場での朝食も美味しく頂きました(グアバジュースは、氷で薄まりすぎ!)
朝食も3種から選べる。
再確認の電話が、飛行機の延着により19:30を過ぎたが
用紙には、23時までOK!とか書いてあったが
電話したら、19時終了!と言われた・・・あせったけど
当日、なんの問題も無く参加できた。
