Valley Isle Excursions

This is our first trip to Maui so I wanted a tour that provided a historical overview and Galvin did. The tour was fun, informative and my teen son really enjoyed it. I recommend sitting in the front it helps not to get motion sickness. The left side (2 seats) provides a view of the ocean the right side waterfalls. I think the left side is the best especially to take pictures. The food was great and looking forward to our second trip with them to see the Volcanoes of Maui.

Billy and Jacob provided my wife and I an excellent Haleakala Sunrise tour today. They provided great advice on how to best enjoy this tour and provided detailed tour information along our trip. #govalleyisle

We visited for our honeymoon. We were interested in doing the road to Hana tour but doing it ourselves. We decided after talking to some other people at the hotel, that we would book a tour instead. We booked this and it was great. The tour is long but very scenic. Scott was our guide and he is awesome! Special shout out to him for keeping it entertaining and answering everyones questions! If we have any friends or family that come we will definitely recommend this company, and specifically Scott! We stopped several times and people who were on tours remembered Scott from before! Thanks Scott!

My husband and I used Valley Isle Excursions for both our Road to Hana tour, as well as the Sunrise tour to Haleakala. Both trips were fantastic.Koa was our guide for the Road to Hana, and offered quite a bit of knowledge, wrapped up in a charming personality. He had drinks available all day as well. It was a long day (10+ hours) but was well worth the money. You make a full circle of the island, rather than turning around when you get to Hana.Billy and Aaron were our guides for the Sunrise tour. They kept the bus quiet on the way up there so you could get a little extra sleep. They had extra poncho blankets for additional insulation against the cold mountain winds. They also stopped at a few other places on the way back down for additional photo ops.All in all, we had a great experience with Valley Isle, and will definitely use them again in the future.

Very impressed with our Road to Hana Tour with Scott in Feb. 2019! Scott was a kind, informative, and funny guide who truly made our experience memorable! Valley Isle provides door-to-door service from your accommodations in their comfortable tour vans (12 passengers max.) Once all passengers are picked-up, you begin with continental breakfast at a golf course and then start on the Road to Hana. From there, you stop at a variety of waterfalls, lookout points, and areas of interest before reaching Hana. A tasty BBQ chicken lunch was served at a flower farm and then we continued with stops (including Charles Lindberghs gravesite) before going around Haleakala, which was amazing to see the difference in terrain, foliage, and climate! We felt this was a high-quality experience greatly enhanced by Scotts fun personality and knowledge of Maui! If youre doing the Road to Hana for the first time, I recommend doing a guided tour like this one. While its a long day regardless, the tour stops are planned out for you and it takes out the guesswork!

We hired Valley Isle Excursions to takes us on the “Road to Hana” and I have to admit, I was a bit apprehensive after hearing all the stories about the twisting turning roads and the one lane bridges. But our tour guide, “Jack the Legend” made the trip as comfortable as a Sunday drive.Jack’s knowledge of the physical landscape was unbelievable. He was able to answer any and all questions regarding plant life, rock formations, beach’s, etc.His knowledge of the history of the Hawaiian islands was also unbelievable. He was able to teach us about the islands, from the first explorers of the islands today. And the way he told these stories was absolutely engaging and entertaining.My wife and 2 teenage children will always remember this trip and we would highly recommend Valley Isle Excursions and “Jack the Legend” to all our family and friends when visiting Maui.

TAKE THIS TOUR TO HANA, DONT DRIVE!Our guide, Junior, was extremely knowledge and entertaining. Your probably wondering what your going to see, we did. There were many stops and I understand they change from time to time. Im sure you can count on a continental breakfast (try the jams theyre yummy), youll learn about how the islands vegetation evolved, see beautiful coastlines, and pic opportunities over and over again.Then youll have the waterfall section with plenty of stops to get great photos. From there we went to the Black Sand Beach and the National Park, both worth seeing. Then we stopped for lunch. It was good food but dont expect gormet - after all, youre on an excursion.The next part was a surprise. ..the road back. It was rough and exhilarating! We saw the other side of the island and enjoyed the contrast. Junior even gave us the scoop on Operas residence and where Jurassic Park was filmed.Just a heads up. This ride is physically difficult and could be a bit much for some people. If your concerned, get a seat at the front of the bus and youll be fine. My wife and I were at the back of the bus and found that we were weary by the time we got home but very happy.

This was a very enjoyable and informative tour. Our guide was knowledgeable about Hawaiian history and shared much of that will us. I have traveled this road by car and can tell you that touring is MUCH BETTER. The scenery was beautiful all the way. I highly recommend.

Went on the Haleakala sunrise tour and it was arguably our favourite morning during the entire trip! Mike and Janelle were great guides, super informative and very entertaining. We got to the summit of Haleakala quite early and were freezing outside for over an hour (make sure to bundle up!), but it was well worth the wait as we had prime viewing position for an amazing sunrise. The breakfast was probably the best meal we had on the island, it tasted great! Would definitely recommend this tour, just make sure to dress for the freezing temperatures (bring mittens)!

So glad we booked this excursion to experience the road to Hana in a way we wouldnt have been able to on our own.Our driver, Dennis, was fantastic. He was funny and knowledgeable, sharing information about the history of the island and the different locations we passed. He kept us both informed and laughing throughout the long day.We felt like we were also able to experience things we wouldnt have driving on our own or on other tours, since this excursion covered the drier, south side of the road. It just made the experience more breathtaking, getting to see the full picture of the road, and all of the shifts along the way.We had a great experience, and would highly recommend Valley Isle.

Jaw dropping. We took the Road to Hana tour. The views are unparalleled. The breakfast and lunch were deliciious. Thanks to Joe. Joe was our tour guide and he was the best. He seemingly knew everyone in and around Hana too! Youll have no regrets with this one.

My boyfriend and I just finished the tour for the Road to Hana! A must do if you’re ever in Maui and even more so, a must with Travis! Travis was entertaining, considerate and so knowledgeable with information about Maui’s history and current state. The tour provided breakfast and lunch. Breakfast was generic but lunch was amazing! Home cooked meal that any traveler would appreciate traveling far from home. We got picked up and dropped off at our hotel and had a wonderful time. Travis’s impeccable driving made us feel safe and was well worth the price.

We took the sunrise tour to Haleakala with Valley Isle and they did a fabulous job ! Arrived promptly on time, and made us very comfortable throughout the journey. They even provided us with warm layers once we reached the summit as it was very cold up there. Hector is very knowledgeable and the perfect guide and made it interesting with all the trivia along the journey. By 11 am they dropped us back and we couldnt be more happier and satisfied. Highly recommend !

Me and wife took a road to Hana tour on 3rd January. It was by far the best tour we have ever taken and it is only because of Valley Isle. Our guide Travis was just amazing. With so much local knowledge and information he made a point that the trip becomes once in a lifetime moment for us. The food they provided was good, there was enough water and beverages. The tour was nicely paced, we never felt rushed. We also met other Valley Isle Vans on the way and pit stops, and everyone on those tours were equally happy. They picked us on time and were patient enough. Travis was 1 of the best highlights of tour along with the Road to Hana itself. We definitely recommend them. And Maui is best and we learned so much about the land itself.

My husband and I had an amazing experience on the Road to Hana! Travis was a wonderful tour guide who made the 12 hour excursion fly by! He shared a lot of information, kept us all engaged, and helped us notice the small details of beauty on this winding road.

The best reason to wake up at 230a on a vacation! Billy and Tony were outstanding tour guides. An excellent duo that guided us up Haleakala with ease and got us the best spots for our pictures. It was unbelievably cold at the lookout, which we reached around 550a. So be prepared to endure more than an hour of sub-freezing temps. On the way down Billy and Tony provided lots of info on Haleakala, Maui and Hawaii. Could not be more satisfied with our decision. Mahalo!

My wife and I enjoyed Valley Isle Excursions Road to Hana all-day tour. The shuttle bus was new and comfortable, the driver/guide Jon-Lee was excellent and the overall experience was fantastic. Jon-Lee was a skilled and courteous driver, and he provided fascinating insights into the local history and culture - he really knew his stuff and often went out of his way to support and protect his Ohana passengers. We were able to stop many times along the winding, narrow road to take photos, use the restrooms and pick up snacks. Valley Excursions provided an ice chest full of cold drinks and a delicious home-made lunch of grilled chicken, salad and rolls. They even made special arrangements for my gluten free needs. The scenery and overall experience were unparalleled. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough.

Wife and I joined 10 others for the Haleakala Sunrise Tour guided by Billy. He was the most knowledgeable and would highly recommend requesting for his services when taking the trek up 9700’ up to Haleakala State Park. Breakfast was also provided which was great but would highly recommend wearing cold gear since it was 30 degrees during the early morning hours waiting for the sun to rise. Again, Billy was the man with the plan!

Enjoyed the Road to Hana tour!! Our Driver Junior was Great!! Very entertaining and informative!! My Husband and I were going to drive it ourselves at first but decided to book the tour with VIE!! So glad we did.....it would have been too stressful and no fun having to do that drive ourselves. Mahalo Junior and VIE!!

If youre reading different reviews on Road to Hana excursions, pick this one!! Eat some breakfast if you like to start on a full stomach. They do start you off on a stop with muffins, fruits and punches before you take off. It was a great experience with many stops and the driver was amazing and VERY knowledgeable.

Today my hubby and I took an all day trip to Hana and all the way back around the island with Valley Isle tour company. It was on my bucket list to do this trip, and it definitely didn’t disappoint! It is the BEST day I have spent on Maui!Travis, our tour guide, was the main reason this trip was so spectacular. Don’t get me wrong, the scenery and sights we saw along the way were mind-blowing, but Travis was the element that made this trip SO MUCH FUN! I learned a lot about the culture of the people of Maui and specifically, the people of that part of Maui because that is where Travis grew up. He shared interesting and funny stories, songs, and information pertaining to the people living in that area. The road itself is very narrow and curvy, and sometimes just plain rough, but Travis got us through the entire route like it was nothing. There were a couple pretty thrilling driving moments, to say the least! It was an amazing day, and I highly recommend Valley Isle Tour company. And, if you’re lucky, you might have Travis as your informative and fun guide. Thank you, Travis!

Fun and relaxing excursion with Fred was the best way to enjoy the Road to Hana. Leave the driving to Valley Isle Excursion s.

We did the Road to Hana. Travis was our guide and driver and he was excellent. He’s very personable and friendly. He knows many interesting facts about his home island. He took us to great places to swim and enjoy Maui. He also provided a great lunch for us, not a boxed lunch. He took us completely around the island. I would definitely recommend this tour.

I would like to express how much we are glad we did not try to drive ourselves on either of the tours we took. Many switchbacks and sudden drop offs to deal with as well as other drivers. We are thankful to all 3 guides we had, Everett, A-Aron and Debra.Everett and A-Aron were great. Made us feel comfortable and pointed out many things on our trip to Haleakala for our sunrise tour. We are very happy and glad we didnt attempt doing this on our own, with the switchbacks and no guard rails. The food wasnt bad either at Poi by the Pound. May return on our own to try their food.The Road to Hana Tour we took was driven by Debra. Very funny and polite as she kept us safe driving around the island. Although we could not make every stop, the ones we did make were great. Even if a few people on the bus took a bit too long, it was just a few horn honks to let them know, there was no yelling or scolding. Lunch was good too.

This is a fantastic group. They have great personalities, are professional, friendly and very knowledgeable. We had a great tour. Highly recommend.

We had Dennis as a tour guide. He was wonderful! With Dennis as a driver/tour guide, not only did we have fun, but we were able to enjoy the road to Hana without stress or worry driving ourselves!Dennis was extremely knowledgable, warm, and considerate. He was able to speak on almost all topics we encountered on our fully day trip. He was funny and very safe, and we learned a lot! Dennis was entertaining the entire trip, which Im sure was not easy!This tour is beautiful, and it really shows the diverse beauty of Maui.Lunch was very good, and was at just the right time. Dennis did a good job of pointing out all the sites and paying attention to our groups needs and wants.I would definitely recommend this company, this tour and experience for any visitors (as Dennis politely dubs us tourists). it is a worthwhile, informative, fun, and SAFE way to spend a day getting to know the island. We had a marvelous time!

Highly recommend this tour. No stress and lots of stops. It’s a long day but so much nicer than having to figure out the best stops and deal with navigating the crazy, windy road (plus you go the full loop). Our guide, John Lee, was a wonderful narrator.

My friend and I went on the Haleakalā Sunrise tour this August and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Our tour guides Mike and Hector were great. Very prompt, knowledgeable, and concerned with our having the best experience. They also gave us good insider tips about Maui. It is a very early start (2 am) and you need to dress warm, but the sunrise was beautiful, so if you’re up for it Valley Isle is an excellent way to go to Haleakalā.

It was a great experience. Our guide, Maui, took us on a thorough tour of the road to Hana which included a honey farm, an ice cream shop, multiple waterfalls, and a red sand beach, white sand beach, and a black sand beach. The day started with breakfast on the golf course, we had lunch prepared by a local family that owned a beautiful flower farm, and our day ended with a custom drop off at the airport so we could go back to Honolulu. If you go be sure to book a trip.

This is the best tour company to see Road to Hana. Do not drive if you’re interested in learning about the Hawaiian people and culture. Let an experienced driver drive and you enjoy the view.

Travis was entertaining and educational. He also provided a few extra surprises. Made for a very enjoyable day with family. Mahalo!!

Our guide Travis made the day for us! He was very knowledgeable and a lot of fun! We learned a great deal about Maui and really enjoyed the road to Hana! We also got a lot of great pictures and a few photography tips from Travis .

Had the best day today doing the Road to Hana!!! This is the only way to do it. Our guide was so much fun, informative and we felt 100 times safe. Thank you so much!!

Dennis was amazing! He made the trip even better! His knowledge of the island and culture was awesome! If we had driven the Road to Hana on our own we would have missed so much. We would take this tour again! The landscape was breathtaking!

After reading reviews, we decided to take a tour for the road to Hana. We are very glad we did as the person driving really has to focus on the road and doesnt get to enjoy the views as much. Additionally, this tour goes all the way around the southern part of the island, including a stretch where rental cars are not allowed. Kimo, our driver, knew the area and route really well; we felt very safe in his bus. The stops were well selected.

So glad I chose this tour after reading many online reviews! The guides were wonderful, informative, and safe. The Haleakala sunrise tour was super enjoyable and memorable thanks to this tour and it’s thoughtful touches. I highly recommend them on your Hawaiian excursions!

The Road to Hāna tour was absolutely amazing!!! Barry our driver was fantastic. He provided so much information on the history of Maui with a great sense of humour mixed in. Do not hesitate to book a tour with them.

The road to Hana tour was a highlight of our trip. Our driver Glen was amazing not only with his driving skills but the history and stories he told during the day. This trip made us feel like we were going back in time the farther we drove. Very nice views but the road can get rough later in the day but nothing unsafe.

Travis was an amazing tour guide and this was hands down our favorite day on Maui! We were so comfortable riding on the road even when it was very treacherous. He was a great driver and knew so much about the island. We would highly recommend this tour!

We had Junior as a tour guide for our Road to Hana Tour. He was personable, knowledgeable, and had a sense of humor. He constantly was checking on everyone in the tour group, gave everyone a lot of recommendations of things to do in Hawaii and filled our brains with a lot of information about Maui! I would highly recommend this tour and if you get Junior- just know you’re going to have a great day!

Junior was great! He allowed us time to swim at a waterfall and the black sand beach! each of the stops werent too long, but i felt like we were offered plenty of opportunities to get out quickly and take pics. i took this tour 3 years ago with Valley Isle and didnt get any chance to swim (driver or weather, hmmm?)

I am so glad we went with Valley Isle instead of driving ourselves to Haleakala for many reasons. First being the fact that we were able to still sleep on the way up (and down!). The food before and after were just what we needed. Had we gone by ourselves, we would have frozen. The extra wind proof jackets provided were key as well as the ready to grab coffee and hot chocolate when we got on the bus. The guides were fun and informational on the volcano as well as Hawaii in general. Highly recommend!

Dennis, our tour guide, made the road to Hana a very memorable and enjoyed experience. We tried to do the road on our own a few years ago and only made it halfway. By booking this trip, we were both able to enjoy the breathtaking views and see a side of the island most aren’t able to see. Also, having someone drive and point out things we probably would have overlooked, made it all worth it.

I did the Road To Hana tour with David. And I thought he did a great job. He talked about a wide variety of things on the island such as plant life, animals, history, and pointed out cool stops. The only thing keeping me from giving it five stars was that it did feel like a quick stop at each place where as I would of liked to spend more time at some of the stops. But, since it was a tour around the whole island and he was showing us so many things, staying for longer at any stop would have prolonged the trip making it too long possibly. I think this was a great option for me as a solo traveler, and I was SO glad I wasn’t driving that road by myself! Thank goodness for this tour! I also want to add that the lunch was GOOD, and I am a vegetarian so ate that option. It was an Indian curry pasta dish (not spicy). As a vegetarian I usually have to eat only sides and not get full, but I did get full from this meal and it was delicious!

Our driver/tour guide (Dennis) was a real pro. I would have never attempted this drive myself nor known all the best places to stop. Will remember this tour forever, and have lots of pictures to show for it.

Lucky for me and my family, Perfect weather to see the sunrise on top of the Haleakala. Our guides were top of the class, keeping us safe and warm.Thank you very much Mike, and Hector! You guys are the best!

Such a great experience. I drove the Road to Hana before and missed so much not to mention I was stressed the whole way! John Lee was a great tour guide and we had a wonderful time. Make sure you have a charger, youll be taking lots of pictures!

The tour came highly recommended from family that took it two years ago. It did not disappoint. Junior was an excellent guide. The bus was comfortable and picked us up on time on the West side of the island. Cooler was stocked with pop and water and the choice of stops was awesome.

Did Road to Hanna tour and it was magnificent. Exactly as they describe and more. If you’re fortunate enough to get Eric as your guide you’ll learn more about Maui and Hawaii in 10 hours than you have your entire life. He’s lived on Maui his whole life.Amazing views and Eric knows exactly where to stop for best experiences. Lunch was home made and delicious.I almost rented a car and did it myself. DO NOT TRY IT. You need to be experienced in driving these roads and you won’t be able to take your eyes off the road.One of the best 10 hours of my life. The senior rate of $150 was very well worth it.DO IT AND THANK ME LATER. AND THANK YOU ERIC!!!

We have done the Road to Hana one other time about 8 years ago, but because we had enjoyed the tour, we brought friends with us and decided to do it again. Can you drive it yourself? Sure, but you will miss a ton of things because you wont know what to look for. Request Travis! This man is amazing!!Small van..12 people. We became Ohana (family) by the end of the day. Pick up at hotel or resort. Travis gave us a great history of the island, but not too much so that we could not remember it.We visited the grave of Charles Lindberg and Curious George. Go on the tour to learn more. Had a continental breakfast with Pog, coffee, fresh fruit, rolls and gluten free bread, if you have a challenge. Lunch was pulled pork, green salad, rolls, macaron salad and juice or water. Stopped at beaches, an old church, where Travis played his his ukelele and sang to us. Cant say enough great things about this tour. He put in his 200%. Dont drive! Call Valley Isle tours

Choose this company for your road to Hana tour! It was simply amazing! Our guide Eric was the best your guide Ive ever had. He was super engaging, very knowledgeable about the history of Hawaii along with all of the stops we made and he was just a straight up awesome guy. The sights were incredible and the food for breakfast and lunch were great. I would highly highly highly recommend this company and if possible ask for Eric, you wont be disappointed. That being said, if you have any kind of motion sickness, bring along some Dramamine, all those switchbacks took me for a loop right from the beginning lol. Im still a little dizzy but I would do it again in a heartbeat.

So glad that we decided to NOT drive the Road to Hana by ourselves and left the driving to Valley Isle Excursions. Our tour guide Eric did an AMAZING job! He was very knowledgeable and offered plenty of Hawaiian history. We appreciated his constant enthusiasm throughout the tour. Celebrating our 30th anniversary in Maui was even more special, we will definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to witness the beauty of Hana.Paul & Michele

We had a great time on the Road to Hana with Travis as our guide. Travis was awesome and filled us in on a lot of Hawaiian history. I totally recommend this trip!

Surely it may appear as if I am echoing all of the other reviews but this experience is life! Coupled with great service and a very knowledgeable tour guide. If you are in Maui do your self a favor and book this tour. You will not regret it.

Used to be 1 of the Best Drivers, Now Im the Mechanic. Great Operators, Rated #1 Tour Company on Maui, And Very Knowledgeable Drivers, that tend to be Educators, leaving Passengers Educated and Understanding of Hawaii.

Michael and Mark were absolutely wonderful. I truly believe Michael and Mark played a huge role in it being such a great tour. They were extremely organized from pick up to drop off. They were personable. We felt extremely welcomed and our well being was their utmost priority. They made us all feel like ohana. I would highly recommend this tour and especially Valley Isle Excursions!!!

The Road to Hana is the best tour on Maui! Its a very full day and the continental breakfast and delicious lunch were great. We saw the most amazing and beautiful sights! There were several stops along the way where we could get off the bus (size of a shuttle but very comfortable.) We were surrounded with beauty and grandeur and could take lots of pictures. Our guide, Debra, was fantastic! She was warm, funny, and gave us great information about the various places we visited. Debra took such good care of us! I highly recommend this company and Im sure that any of their tours would be 5 star.

Great trip!!!!! 2nd time using Valley Isle for Road to Hana trip and this one exceeded our expectations once again.Barry was amazing-his overall knowledge of the island, the history and non stop enthusiasm was greatly appreciated-Would give him 10 Stars if available.

We used Valley Isle Excursions for our trip to Hana, and we had the most wonderful experience! Junior was our tour guide and he had us entertained the entire ride! He was extremely knowledgeable about the island of Maui, as he is a native of the state. He knew the road so well and we felt safe the entire time. If you’re considering driving to Hana yourself or doing a tour, the choice is simple - do a tour and enjoy the ride with Valley Isle Excursions! You’ll be so glad you did! And if you’re lucky, you’ll get Junior as your guide!

What a great day! Glenn was a great driver with lots of information. The tour doesnt just go back and forth to Hana, it continues around through Kua! So much beautiful shoreline and the backside of Haleakala too! And the lunch was a hot meal served in glad plates with real silverware... First class!

Loved the road to hana tour. Our drivers name was Eric. For someone who enjoys learning, he made the tour fun and interesting. He kept spitting out facts and history about Hawaii not taught in school, which I enjoyed. I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to not only see beautiful views of waterfalls and beaches but also wanting to learn more about Hawaii. Will definitely use this tour company again on my next trip to Maui.

Tour was great! Guides were very informative, welcoming, and energetic. We felt very safe in the vehicle on the Road to Hana tour. Only thing we didnt like is the lunch that was served in an open-air environment where flies were swarming the food and tour guide touched everyones bread rolls with his bare hands. Food safety handling needs to be looked in to....

Had a fantastic Road to Hana Tour with Valley Isle and David as the driver. David was fantastic! He knew so much about the island and the history along the route. I would do this again just to hear some of the things he told us. Great way to see the road and not have to worry about driving.I recommend this tour especially with David.Roland Bernabe

Mark was a GREAT DRIVER! Very knowledgeable about the Island, and all the places we went he let us enjoy the time it took to view and take pictures. We come to Maui every year and will use Valley Isle again becaause of Mark.

Unfortunately, we did the Haleakala Sunrise tour recently when the weather conditions were horrible. Temps were in the negatives and the wind gusts were so strong that you could not stand still. My parents simply could not stand outside for longer than a few seconds at a time. Most of us took shelter in the visitor center, but we couldnt see much through its foggy windows. We could not see the sunrise due to the thick clouds covering the crater and it was not worth it to take any of the usual stops along the way down from the top due to poor visibility. There was report of black ice on the ground, as well which made me question whether the trip should have been canceled the morning of as a safety precaution.I appreciated the efforts of our tour guides and enjoyed listening to our tour guides presentation on the history of Maui/Hawaii on the way down. The food offerings (continental breakfast before tour and hot buffet after tour) left a lot to be desired.I wish there was a way that the weather conditions could be better predicted so that visitors are not put in harms way when mother nature does not want to cooperate. I was offered a second trip to make up for it, and unfortunately was not able to take them up on this offer due to schedule constraints. Just be aware when you are shelling out your money that there is no guarantee that you will get what you expect. Sadly for the 3 of us, the $500 should have been spent on something else during our time in Maui.

We went with Gavin on 6/14/19. It was our very favorite activity in Maui. Gavin is extremely entertaining and knowledgeable about the islands. We really got an experience of a lifetime! The scenery and beaches were out of this world!

Debra, our driver/guide, was great. Lots of information about places visited and family stories that related to the tour.If you can request her, we would highly recommend it.We were able to hit all of the highlights of Hana. Unfortunatly due to the weather, we were unable to go swimming.If you plan to take the Road to Hana, definitely book it with Valley Isle Excursions.

We took the Haleakalā Sunrise Tour with Hector as our guide and Billy as our driver on Sunday, 02/17. Yes, it was very early and yes, it was very cold. (There was snow on the ground.) We enjoyed the trip very much. The star gazing and sunrise were wonderful. Hector was friendly and informative. I enjoyed chatting with Billy was during breaks. It was fun talking to the Menhunes. Thanks, guys.

We had a great time on our Road to Hana excursion with Dave. He had lots of good insider information for us. It was interesting to be told about the good places to watch surfing, and Dave gave us a great tip for a good place to eat at the Fish Market just outside of Lahaina. He also gave us a good heads up on not bringing anything from the island back with us including sand or rocks. As we were sitting at the airport we watched many people throwing away fruit and rocks at the agricultural checkpoint. Thanks, Dave!

Booked 2 tours. Jon-Lee was our guide on the Road to Hana. Knowledgeable and funny. Driving was A+ as my wife was worried about motion sickness.2 days later we did the Mt Haleakala sunrise with Hector and Everett. Again two great and knowledgeable guys. Highly recommend.

The road to Hana tour was amazing. This tour takes you all the way along the backside. The sites were incredible without the headache of dealing with the traffic along some single lane stretches of road. If you are lucky to get Eric our driver the trip will be that much more. He was so passionate and informative and gives you a whole different and broader perspective of the island of Maui.

Did both the road to Hana tour and the sunrise tour, both were great. Highly suggest to take the road to Hana with Travis, made the trip 1000% more enjoyable.

This road is treacherous as heck, dont drive it on your own, we saw no smiling faces as we passed those brave drivers in their rental cars, nothing but stress on those faces and nothing but smiles on ours. Tour is the way to go and then you get to enjoy the scenery while someone experienced can drive. The scenery is amazing and a huge contrast from the dry part of the island, quite the paradise. Ask for Travis as your tour guide, he grew up in Hana so he knows all the good spots and history and keeps up a good vibe throughout (he even sang us a lovely song with a ukelele at one stop), high recommendation for him. Well worth the cost. If you dont go for the scenery, at least go for the crazy road that will make you wonder how the locals live like they do.

Great tour! Eric, our tour guide, was amazing! He had so much interesting knowledge to share and really added to the enjoyment of the trip with his personality. The sights were beautiful and I was glad my husband and I did not try to drive ourselves. Not only would would the driver have missed out on some of the views but I much preferred having an experienced driver as parts of the road are a bit (very) daunting. Some of the stops along the way were not that interesting but I appreciated the opportunity to use the restroom often. Other stops were amazing. Even if I would have preferred to have stopped more frequently and for longer there simply would it have been time even if we were driving on our own. I would definitely do this tour again.

We were a group of 10 and did the Volcanoes of Maui tour. Our guide was Kammy and he was PHENOMENAL!!!! We couldnt stop talking about what a wonderful day we had. He just poured so much knowledge about the history of the island and the Haleakala mountain, the Iao valley and all of the other wonderful stops we made along the way. This tour is a must and so worth the money.

We had a fantastic day on the Road to Hana trip. Rainbows, waterfalls, black sand beach, excellent lunch and a fantastic tour guide (Mark) will definitely recommend to our friends. Mahalo

This is our first guided tour in Maui and we had a great experience. We had Charlie as our tour guide and he was friendly, funny, and knowledgeable. There were several long stretches of winding and narrow roads yet he made us feel very safe with his driving. All the stops we took were just the right amount of time to see the sights. The small group for up to 12 people makes it feel more comfortable and it meant less waiting for each other. The timed bathroom stops were also definitely helpful. I definitely highly recommend this excursion and Charlie!

We had the best time. All the stops on the tour were AMAZING. The rainforest was beautiful, the banana bread was delicious and I have never seen such beautiful ocean water. We had an awesome group of people who laughed and laughed. If you get the option, ask that your driver be Charlie. He made our trip so much fun.

Road to Hana with Dennis is a great tour highly recommend it. Best tour guide best stops and safest way to travel on this path.The tour has culture comedy history and Ohana its the best.Best excursion for my vacationOrganized comfortable and a picnic lunch.Most beautiful pictures of my vacation on this tour.Thanks so much I loved it

We did a sunrise tour, which was pretty spectacular. Waking up at 2 am was a bit challenging... But if you like Beautiful views and a bit of great star gazing, it could be worth it. Tour guides Billy and Marc were friendly, though not as genuine as they could have been.

The best priced tour Ive ever taken.

Fantastic tours, we did Hana full loop and Iao Valley/Haleakala tour. Both tours were brilliant.

Our trip to Hana was amazing! Our tour guide Kimo was awesome- we enjoyed the sights and the history he gave us during the tour- breakfast and lunch was really good too- we highly recommend seeing Hana this way- you get to sit back and enjoy everything without the stress of driving!

We LOVED our Road to Hana tour! Eric was a great driver and tour guide. He taught us a lot about Hawaiian history. Only thing we were bummed about was that we didnt get to stop at a lot of the little shops along the way. I supposed if we had tho, the tour would have been 18 hours and not 10! Overall, very nice trip and lunch was yummy! Definitely would recommend eating breakfast before you go, the complimentary breakfast was VERY light. Beautiful day and beautiful island, thank you!

For the money a great tour. The driver was entertaining and knowledgeable plus a very good driver on a crazy road with crazy drivers. The breakfast was good and the lunch was not a typical box lunch. Barbecue chicken with macaroni salad. Plenty of drinks. The sites on the road to Hana were incredible. Well worth the long day and memories to cherish.

My husband and I are so glad that we decided not to try to drive the Road to Hana by ourselves. Our driver and guide was Uncle Joe, and he did an amazing job with the stories, history, and jokes!

Mike and Kapua were tremendous tour guides on our way to and from the sunrise tour. It was wonderful to leave the driving to Mike while learning about the history of the islands. Such a gorgeous view and a truly unforgettable experience!

“Tour of Hana” was a most enriching and stress-free tour experience for my son and me. Joe, a veteran tour guide and driver, was very knowledgeable and personable. Maui born and raised, he was unique in that he was of pure Hawaiian descent and possessed a deep passion for nature and Hawaiian history/culture. He effortlessly spouted out facts and figures as well as shared his personal experiences as a child and young man and entertained all of our questions. He knew everything, including the names of all the waterfalls, plants, fruits, flowers, and towns. Throughout the entire tour, Joe ensured we were comfortable with plenty of air conditioning, water and a variety of sodas. He even passed around a box of delectable chocolate-covered macadamia nuts. The shuttle (“Kauwele”) had big comfortable seats, big clean windows, and was equipped with USB ports to keep our cell phones charged up. Joe allowed us ample time to take pictures of all the water falls, beaches, and indigenous plants and trees. All in all, we felt the tour was very worthwhile and enjoyable; and so lucky to have Joe as our tour guide.

Travis was by far the best. 10/10 would do this again. My only piece of advice is REQUEST TRAVIS for the road to Hana you won’t regret it.

The Local Boy DAMIEN made our trip fantastic! We learned so much and the drive was a great experience! Felt so safe the entire way even though the road was scary! Definitely worth doing!

Went on the incredible Road to Hana tour with Valley Isle Excursions. Dennis was a great tour guide - very knowledgeable and experienced driver on the winding and dramatic cliffside roads. Cozy and clean bus. Very filling lunch. It was an amazing 9-hour trip. Highly recommend booking this tour!

Fantastic tour, glad we had Junior as our tour guide. Junior was informative about history and variety of island facts. He also sang us a couple of songs along the way. I would highly recommend this tour and ask for this tour guide.

They forgot to pick us up at 3am. After waiting for 1h, we called, just for them to tell us that they were not coming and we should take our car.So to be safe, take another tour or drive up yourself. Dont forget to make a reservation with the National Park for you to get in - which they didnt tell us as well - so thanks for nothing!(The booking was made by my friend)

I’ve heard a lot of great things from our hotel Concierge desk about the best rated company to book for the Sunrise tour. The pre-dawn colors were breathtaking. Our tour guides, Everett & Tony, were informative & polite. Personally, I didn’t care much for the food or the coffee, but that wasn’t what this excursion was about.A Once if a Lifetime experience everyone should have on their bucket list.

It was amazing... waterfalls everywhere!! The tour guides were awesome and kept us safe while going through the rain forest and driving along the crazy windy road. Absolutely gorgeous places though!

My husband and I booked this tour through our concierge when we visited Maui in November. Our tour guide, David Snyder, was great. Very well-informed and knowledgeable. He made the trip so enjoyable with his experience, humor, and familiarity of the area. He was also very respectful and inclusive of his passengers. Im sure if we would have driven the route ourselves, we would have missed some key spots to visit. We felt this tour was worth every penny on our first-time trip to Maui.

Truly enjoyed this tour. Eric was our tour guide, he was friendly, knowledgeable, thoughtful and courteous. Attentive to each person on the van. 12 of us. The views were spectacular. Eric made sure we had all of the photo ops possible. Even my apprehensive friend loved it! I recommend Eric who is very easy on the eyes.

We had a great time on our Hana Highway trip! Our driver Eric was very informative and helpful; we all learned a lot about Hawaiian culture and history. Breakfast and lunch was excellent, and we stopped just the right amount of time to experience the beauty at a number of places. Two days before our trip with Valley Isle, my wife and I had driven part of the Hana Highway ourselves, up to the Keanae peninsula, then back to Haiku. Now I am glad we did not drive the whole way. South of Hana the road is especially treacherous. In many spots very narrow, with only a ledge leading to the ocean below! Our driver was professional and safe, and he made it fun. My only suggestion is that, on the last part of the trip, have some more relaxing music, low volume, or just no music. But all in all a great adventure!

Jr. was amazing! Made the tour fun and exciting! Totally worth the trip! The road to Hana is amazing. I heard a lot of people renting cars and driving It themselves. But to be honest, I enjoyed not having to worry about it. With someone else driving you could sit back and see everything.

I was extremely unhappy with this tour! Our guide was phenomenal, he was very informative. However, me and my husband sat on the right side of the bus. The seats on the right were single seats. We couldnt see anything!!! All the views were looking out of the left side of the bus. No pictures, only when we were able to step out of the bus to take them.We were picked up last, so they were the only seats left.Very unhappy!!!
