I am a NAI certified guide with over 300 sunrises on Haleakala and 200 loops around Hana. My Father-in-law is John Keanaaina Hoku award winning music artist. He has bee in Hawaii since the 1940s and his feelings about Hawaii might surprise you. I’m also CDL licensed and usually have 25 people on a tour. The fact that it’s just our group gives a much deeper experience and the lack of crying infants is always a bonus.. I have studied photography and will take hundreds of photos and also make you a video at the end of the day. Your health is important and this tour with just your group will provide that safe environment. If you would like to see some more photos from my adventures my IG and FB are Mauihoppin.
