We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed the tour and that your guide helped make the day so memorable. Sharing the beauty of Hāna and its surroundings is what we love to do, and it’s wonderful to know you had such a positive experience. Thank you for recommending us!

Excellent Guide

Hana & day trip

Appavu_P, Aug 2025
Good trip but the total time less than what we expected, it would’ve been much better if the trip was longer for the money spent

See the real Maui

Gautham_P, Aug 2025
Writing this review following an exceptional experience with our tour guides. We were led by Emma, and another local guide who was being trained by her. Both guides were immensely knowledgeable, passionate about the land, and seemed to be wonderful people. The scenery was beautiful, the driving was skillful, and the stops were thoughtful. We absolutely loved our tour with them, and would give the highest recommendation for others to book with Hana and Beyond. I think this tour would not have been as meaningful had it been with another tour group with less deep ties to Maui and Hana. 5 stars without reservation.

Vanessa_K, Jul 2025
The tour took us on a beautiful drive to Hana. We stopped at several scenic locations on route and enjoyed swimming on the black sand beach. The driver was very knowledgeable and friendly. The small van made the trip more personal as it gives you the opportunity to share experiences with fellow travellers. We would have liked a little more time to enjoy some of the stops, the tour finished quite early in the afternoon.

Awesome tour!

Michael_B, Jul 2025
Very good tour! We had Lei as our guide! She was very informative, friendly, and a great driver. We have driven the Road to Hana ourselves previously 2 times. This trip we decided to do the tour so we could just sit and enjoy the ride. It was so nice just to sit back, relax and let someone else take the wheel. We got to see a lot of things that we missed by driving ourselves. It was well worth it!

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Mahalo for your kind words! We're so glad you enjoyed the tour with Lei, she’s an amazing guide and driver. It’s great to hear that you were able to relax and experience new sights, even after doing the Road to Hana before. Mahalo for choosing us, it truly means a lot!

My Guide was awesome, the scenery was absolutely amazing, and although I was traveling solo, I didnt alone!

If you are prone to motion sickness, you might want to take something before hand. Other then that, prepare to be amazed.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Great advice! Motion sickness can sneak up on you during the drive, so taking something beforehand is definitely a smart move. Other than that, just sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.

Damp day but warm memories

Carol_B, Apr 2025
Calvin gave us lots of great information about the sites we were seeing and other things about the volcano and Rainbow falls. He offered to take photos for groups, answered questions, and was very thoughtful in assisting people as needed. Wished we had time to do his coffee tour, but when he heard that no one was able to do that gave us a shortened but very interesting info. We were hoping for lava flow but it had happened earlier and he shared some pictures of other flows. We really enjoyed our time with him. Carol and Gene

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Mahalo for your wonderful review, Carol and Gene! Just to clarify, was this tour with another company? We don’t have a guide named Calvin on our team. Regardless, it sounds like you had a fantastic experience. Glad you had a great time!

Excellent to see so much of Maui

Don_D, Apr 2025
I found the tour, very informative and extremely interesting. We saw so many things and learned much. It was a bit long for me, but I’m really glad I did

Response from Host, Jun 2025

It’s great to hear it was a rewarding experience for you. Mahalo for your review!

Day trip on the Road to Hana

This Road to Hana tour was absolutely amazing! We had such a good time with Lei as our tour guide. She made the trip memorable and exciting providing us with historical information and fun facts. She stopped at various points interest along the way and we even went swimming in the waterfalls. Thanks again for everything Lei!

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Fabulous Adventure

Laurie_F, Mar 2025
My daughter and I went on this tour and it did not disappoint. The scenery and experiences were outstanding. Beginning at the pick up to our drop off we were entertained with games, facts, scenery, and adventures. Our driver Lei was amazing and made the adventure fabulous!!

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Mahalo for your kind words! We're so happy to hear that Lei made your Road to Hāna experience special with her aloha spirit and knowledge of the area. Her passion for sharing the beauty of Maui really shines through, and we're glad she kept you engaged throughout the journey. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again on another adventure! Aloha and mahalo! 🌺😊

Very Scenic and Stunning but Long and Winding

Kim_C, Jan 2025
The Road to Hana is beautiful with stunning waterfalls, lush rainforests, and breathtaking coastal views. Be prepared for a long and winding journey and the weather. Our guide shared great info about areas we stopped at. If you're easily carsick I would not recommend. The roads are very curvy and can be tough at times (luckily our driver knew how to handle them). Our weather was beautiful until the way back when it poured. This is a worthwhile experience if you love nature and don't mind a day of driving. I would definitely recommend doing research beforehand to decide if it's the right fit for you.

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Mahalo for your thoughtful review! The Road to Hāna is truly a breathtaking journey, and we’re so glad you enjoyed the stunning waterfalls, lush rainforests, and coastal views. It’s definitely a winding adventure, and we appreciate you highlighting the importance of being prepared—our expert local drivers do their best to make the ride as smooth as possible! Weather in Hāna can be unpredictable, but it sounds like you made the most of it and embraced the experience. We agree that this tour is perfect for nature lovers who don’t mind a full day of exploring. Mahalo for recommending us, and we hope to see you on another Maui adventure! 🌺😊🚐

Great trip

Deirdre_N, Jan 2025
Dave was a great guide. Knowledgeable and great fun. The trip is beautiful and had some lovely stops. Would have loved more time at waterfall and BBQ before lunch as an option.... looked and smelled wonderful. But a great day overall.

Road to Hana with Lea- BOOK IT!!!!

Sarah_B, Dec 2024
Lea (our tour guide) was an absolute ray of sunshine! She was knowledgable, made our tour super fun, always offered to take pictures (great for me as a solo traveler) and helped us really immerse in local Hawaiian culture. Beyond what was listed on the Viator tour, she added a few extra stops and she texted us local recommendations based on where we were staying. If you have a chance to enjoy fresh coconut water from Morgan, do it! Below are all of the stops we went to. 10/10 recommend. 1. Rainbow Eucalyptus Trees in Kailua 2. Kaumahina Wayside Park 3. Wailua Valley (protected valley with the stairs that goes up to lookout) 4. Pua'a Ka'a State Park (waterfalls) 5. Nahiku Market (coconuts) 6. Wai'anapanapa State Park (black sand beach) 7. Hāna Farms (banana bread) 8. Ke’anae Peninsula 9. Ho'okipa Beach (turtles)

Great Toad to Hana Experience

Rosellen_H, Nov 2024
What a gorgeous trip enhanced by Lei, our tour guide, with her great spirit and knowledge each step of the way wanting to make our time the best and very enjoyable. A day well spent.

Wonderful Tour!

Wayne_B, Sep 2024
What a Wonderful Trip we had on the Road to Hana Tour. A real local company with the knowledge and experience to show us all the neat locations to view and enjoy. "Lei" was our guide for the day and she made it so much fun and enjoyable for everyone in the group. I need Lei to send me her music playlist from the tour too! Highly Recommend this Tour!

Excellent tour

Margarita_S, Sep 2024
It was a beautiful experience, I will do it again and again I just love everything about this road to Hana trip. You guys are the best. Everything was perfect. The driver everything.

So much knowledge of Maui and history and culture!

Racheal_H, Sep 2024
Great experience! The most valuable part was the knowledge of our fabulous tour guide! It’s a tight fit in the van and they do pack each seat. The black sand beach was beautiful!

Save yourself the headache, and ride with these guys!!

Casandra_T, Sep 2024
We truly had an incredible day with Damien, our driver and tour guide. He provided an upbeat and fun environment to where we all became very comfortable with the group. I would definitely recommend this tour and don’t even think about doing the drive yourself it has over 1200 sharp turns and we saw and accident on the way back. Definitely worth the investment so you get the most out of the road to Hana. Our driver also stopped for some incredible picture moments. The lunch was great and filling, definitely bring water shoes for the black sand beach because the rocs are very sharp, also some dry and looser clothes to change into. I also would plan for a weekday as we went on Friday so it was a little busy.

Best trip!🌺

Lena_H, Sep 2024
We had a great trip! We booked this tour because we were afraid to drive the road to Hana by ourselves and it was the best decision ever! We had so much fun during the drive and our tour guide was the sweetest. She showed us around and gave us the best time ever. I would 1000% recommend this tour.

Awesome road trip to Hana

Michael_D, Aug 2024
Shawn our driver was an excellent driver through all those curves on the road to Hana. He cared for those that may get car motion sickness. He had patches to give out for those that needed it. Very knowledgeable of the town of Hāna.

The ease of which the whole group got along and the enthusiasm of the driver Sean. I thought there was going to be more hiking but it turned out to be enough

Road to Hana was beautiful

Despite drizzly rain, the trip to Hana was wonderful. The lush rainforest, many waterfalls and the black sand beach were highlights. Our driver Jeff was extremely knowledgeable and taught us a ton about Hawaiian and Polynesian culture.
