Bobbie & Nanie we’re our guides & they were very entertaining & professional. Be prepared for colder temps on the mountain, but was a great exhilarating ride down the mountain! Can’t ride your breaks down the mountain, so this may not be for you if your afraid of some speed. The bike were comfortable and safe. Scenery in the “Up Country” was true Maui & the wonderful scent of the flowers & trees along the way were sensational! Would highly recommend this tour!!

The guides are all about providing a great trip down the volcano safely. Be prepared to go fast! Some in our group did not realize how fast 20-25 mph is on a bike and chose to sit out the second ride because of that. It is nice to have the whole lane to ride in versus just the bike lane. The scenery is gorgeous and the third trip through the town and fields was so much fun. Major kudos to our guides for leading such a big group down safely!

We were taken just below the summit. Unloaded our bikes, the bikes seemed older and needed maintenance. My brakes squeak the whole time I use them. We did maybe a 20 minute ride down. They loaded our bikes back up and we did the same route again which was not what we unexpected. Them they drove us to a town where we were on our own for 45 minutes. We got on our bikes and individually, went down the rest of the way to Paia. They did discuss some things in the van ride to the summit, but they weren’t mic’d so if you were in the back, you couldn’t hear anything. We did not go through two towns, it was not one continuous 26 mile ride, there wasn’t a history lesson.

Aloha,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're very sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations and that the information you were given prior to booking was inaccurate.
Unfortunately, it appears there was a miscommunication from the third-party vendor that you made your reservation with regarding the structure and details of the tour. We are currently following up with them to ensure they are providing accurate information to future guests. Our website has the current up to date information for the tours we offer. The Sunrise Tour is our tour that we have that goes to the summit of Haleakala National Park. You booked your tour through a third party vendor for the Maui Day Tour.
Your feedback is taken seriously and has been passed it on to our operations team for review and maintenance. We also appreciate your note about the guide's narration not being audible in the van — we’ll look into ways to improve that part of the experience as well.
Thank you again for your feedback — it helps us improve and provide a better experience for all our guests.

The Volcano was so beautiful and the guide did a great job of checking experience levels to make sure everyone had a fun and safe trip. We went up the volcano twice, stopped at a cute town for lunch/brunch the biked an easier road afterwards. This experience was completely unforgettable!

Had a great time going down the mountain with my 15 year old son.
As long as you obey the rules it is safe. The van trails you down the mountain to slow down and/or stop cars from passing you.
My favorite was the unattended 5 mile lazy coasting back to the headquarters
I think I pedaled twice the whole time I was on the bike.
Stopped in a small town for Pog and malasadas.
Manny, a native, was super friendly
Bring a hoodie for the mountain top it’s in the mid 50’s.

Trip advertised as half day with two runs down. Due to weather the distance of the ride down was reduced and we did one ride. So we were back at the start very early and no offer of a partial refund.

Had a great time in Maui and a great time on our ride with Mountain Riders. Our guide Manny was interesting and safety conscious!! My kids, wife and I had a great time and really appreciate the personal service!!
