Maui: VIP Private Road to Hana Tour with Pick Up

1.VIP Private Road to Hana Tour with Pick Up

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,068 reviews · 8 to 10 hours (approx.) · from $679Our pick

Spend 8 to 10 hours on a private Maui tour along the Road to Hana, with a guide such as Luke, Kobe, Shayne, or Spencer. Set your own pace while visiting waterfalls, black-sand beaches, Hana town, cacao farms, and local food stops in a private air-conditioned SUV.

“You see and experience so much more when you don't have to navigate the road. The guide was not only knowledge about where to spend the most time, but went out of her way to introduce us to the locals and help us understand how the plants were used by the natives for various purposes. The VIP is well worth the cost for the one-on-one interactive tour.”
