We had a fantastic time on our tour. We did the self guided bike tour. Kimo, our guide was really fun and interesting. He shared lots of historical information that made our visit more memorable. The views were spectacular. We got a really fun picture from our guide. Definitely recommend this tour.

Fun bike tour

Susan_G, Jan 2026

Guided bike tour was great!

Mindi_D, Jul 2025

We ended up changing to the guided tour, and we’re glad we did. If you have never done this, I recommend biking with a guide. The guide was able to help us safely navigate the roads and we had a great time!

The guided tour is much...

David_E, Jul 2025

The guided tour is much better. If you booked a self guided my recommendation is to switch to a guided bike tour

Mountain biking

Was probably the best part of our trip. My daughters were nervous but in the end they both loved it.

Great Downhill Run!

Alan_R, Mar 2024

Great service, good organization. Safety is obviously a priority. We had a lot of fun, and the downhill run was exhilarating. Too bad that local laws removed the middle portion of the ride, but Bike Maui did a great job of dealing with that situation.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Aloha and thank you for your awesome feedback on your experience with us! We strive to provide the best service possible, keep everyone completely safe, and have fun at the same time. We hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!

Kimo is fantastic! Exceptional knowledge of Maui including plant and animal life. Provided great safety and ride instructions. However, it was disappointing to learn during the pre-ride instructions that the section through Kula is closed to riders. I would have benefitted from being informed ahead of time. Other than that, Kona bikes are great to ride and scenery is always wonderful.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Aloha and thank you so much for joining us with a Haleakala Summit bike ride! You're right, Kimo is an amazing guide who is exceptionally knowledgeable and safety conscious. We hope to see you again the nex time that you visit Maui. Mahalo!

Great activity for the adventurous!

Our family had a great experience on the self guided bike tour. Our guide was very informative about local history on the bus ride up the mountain. Gave plenty of directions for us to remember how to bike down on our own. The bikes were safe. You do have to go on the edge of the road and be very careful of traffic, but we felt safe the entire time. We did have to rely on Google maps on our phones a few times to double check the directions. Stopped for a good lunch on the way down the mountain. Definitely would recommend this for families with older children/young adults. Be prepared for all types of weather. It started off freezing cold, had some rain showers, and lots of sun, even getting a little sunburnt.

Skip this unless you like lots of driving in a bus

Sarah_P, Feb 2022

We did the unguided tour (intentionally, not because it was less expensive) because the corny tour guide untrue stories are simply annoying. We’ll go figure we had to go up the mountain for 2 hours (yes 2 hours before you even get on the bike), in a bus with a bunch of guided tour people asking annoying questions. The bike ride itself was fun but I wouldn’t recommend this experience. We left our hotel at 7 am and didn’t get back until after 3pm. Only an hour of that 8 hour experience was spent on a bike.

Nice Sunrise

Vila20192019, Jun 2019

The sunrise was amazing and the staffs commentary up to the top and background on the park and Hawaii was great. Riding down the volcano after sunrise was pretty fun while in the park. Once we exited the park and got farther away from it, the roads became less friendly to bikers. Had fun in the park but felt it could have ended before sneaking through some of the local neighborhoods where people weren’t sharing there road.
