He was very insightful and had lots of knowledge to share along the way! He stopped in the perfect spots to get great pictures! He also entertained us all day. Lunch was probably some of the best food we’ve had yet on our trip. He did a great job driving the winding bumpy road and made us all feel safe and comfortable! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. read less

The best tour guide we have ever had and the tour is completely worth it. Lenny is local and he knows very good around there. He told us many personal and historic stories and experiences in reference of the tour. The dinner was sooo delicious. Very local and fresh food!!! The snacks were very good and tasty.
You won't regret of this option, if you are lucky you'll have Lenny as a tour guide :p
My unique advice to all the people is that don't forget to tip your driver or guides because they really do a great job!

Our driver Mak was the best we have ever had on a tour. We were picked up at our hotel at 6:50am and for 12 hours he entertained us with his stories and facts about the island, his skilled driving in having to backup on a one lane mountain hugging road and his singing and playing his ukulele. There were many treats of fresh fruit and baked banana bread and The lunch was freshly made with multiple choices from a local food truck that were ordered in advance and delivered to us at a beach in Hana. We saw black, red and white sand beaches, a lava tube, water falls and fantastic views from the cliff side road. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Maui, I would definitely not want to drive the south shore with anyone that had not driven it thousands of times. Mak is a local who takes pride in heritage and is passionate about his job. read less

Jamie was such... read moreMy wife and I had such a great time on our tour of the road to Hana! Jamie was such an awesome tour guide (highly recommend requesting her if you can!). Jamie was full of the Aloha spirit and our tour was filled stories of her time growing up on Maui, Hawaii'n mythology & history, and all about the flora and fauna of the island. Never was a dull moment during the day! We made quite a few stops that were pre-planned, but you also have the option to request a few stops along the way if you have some areas of Hana you want to explore. One of the best stops of the day was for lunch at Braddah Hut's BBQ. I'll never forget those ribs! Thanks Jamie for such a great day and showing us around the island! read less

It was great to have someone that has lived on the island for so long to share her information. The lunch stop was great, she took care of all the details all we had to do was decide on what to order. We got to go all the way around the south side of the island where rental cars don't get to go. We were going to drive to Hana ourselves but decided to go with the tour bus was better because if I was driving I would not have been able to see as much as I did because you really need to pay attention to the road if you are driving. If was a full day adventure, I think it was almost 12 hours from pickup to drop off. There were only 2 other couples in the bus with us and we all had a fun trip. read less

No way did I want to drive that road myself,  so the tour was the way to go.  Jaimie was engaging,  informative,  interesting,  and entertainment.  My sister wanted to swim in a waterfall,  and Jaime found one that was less crowded than many; thanks for helping her check off an item from her bucket list! Our day ended with a lovely sunset from the slope of Haleakala. Mahalo,  for a great day! read less

Our tour guide, Khalil (sp?) arrived promptly at the scheduled time (we were the first to be picked up). When she arrived at her second stop, the people were nowhere to be found. She called and they were waiting in their hotel lobby. Now, I read ALL the fine print on my confirmations and it clearly stated the driver will NOT enter the property: you must meet the driver on the STREET, not in the lobby. Khalil asked that they walk down to the street level. When they arrived (there were four women travelling from Albania) they literally yelled at her and said they've been waiting for over 30-minutes (which is not true, they were 6-minutes from our condo). Khalil was very polite and apologized to them, although IMO she had nothing to apologize for. My husband and I were seated in the first row right behind Khalil, then behind us in row #2 were two of the women from Albania, row #3 were the other two Albanian women, and the last row, row #4 was a couple from the Philippines, who were so friendly and excited for the tour to begin. As soon as the four women sat into their seats, they started crunching and cracking on sunflower seeds, right in my ear, which was very annoying. Once the tour began, I was amazed at how much Khalil knew the roads, and she made frequent stops for picture-taking. We even got to swim in a gorgeous waterfall that was essentially private. Around 1:00 pm, the Albanian women said they did not realize it was going to be a 12-hour tour and wanted to go back to their hotel. Khalil, again very professional and EXTREMELY polite, explained this was an all-day tour and that she can't return because there were other people on this tour who were actually enjoying themselves. They got angry and starting yelling in their own language, which we could not understand, but it was obvious to everyone they were unhappy. A few hours later Khalil announced we were coming up on an amazing scene where she will stop for us to take pictures, however the four women were yelling "just keep driving, no more stops, we want to go home". My husband turned around and said WE wanted to stop and take pictures. They were just rude and disrespectful the entire trip, which essentially could have ruined our day but Khalil was the nicest woman to them. Personally, I would have told them to get the hell out and take an Uber back if they're so unhappy! When Khalil dropped them off at their hotel, all of their soggy and eaten sunflower seeds were all over the back of the van, and none of them apologized for the disgusting mess or even attempted to clean it up. I felt so bad for Khalil, they didn't even give her a tip. You spend 12-hours with a fun, happy and knowledgeable tour guide who clearly knows the roads and all the places to stop for amazing pictures and having to put up with rude, disrespectful women, and you just walk away without so much as a thank you. I wish I had more money to give her, she was amazing! read less

Trust me get the ribs when you go. They are the best you have ever had.  The tour was one of the best I have ever been on ever. Yes you can drive the road yourself but the history and background is things you will never know unless you take the tour. It's worth every penny. Trust me. He even played great music that you will always remember. read less

She was taking care about us with a fruity breakfast and an amazing lunch that everybody loved.
She tried to fulfill our special wishes like really wanting to drink and eat a fresh coconut. We were trying to find somebody who sold coconuts which wasn't that easy but she promised it so we found one and I was so happy about it! Thanks for that. Additionally we got the chance to swim in a waterfall which was amazing.
During the ride Jamie told us so much interesting stuff about the road and the island Maui. She knew answers to all of our questions.
We had a really nice day with a really nice group of people and the best guide that you can get for a funny ride along the road to hana. Thank you Jamie (coconut!!!).

Nathan is a native of Hāna and he knows the route very well. I felt safe and comfortable during the trip, and am very glad I booked a tour with an experienced driver instead of trying to drive the road to Hāna myself. Plus, Nathan is so knowledgeable and helpful, and I learned so many interesting things about different facets of the island. The food we tried along the way was fresh and delicious as well. Thank you to Mahalo tours and especially to Nathan for an unforgettable trip! read less

My sister, husband, and I enjoyed this trip together. It took my sister and I a while to decide on which tour company to select for this trip. We were so happy we chose Mahalo! Our local guide was very knowledgeable of each and every stop and location on the tour and even managed time for additional stops people requested on the route. He took the time out to tell us facts and stories of locations along the way. He also provided us with snacks, water, great food, and plenty of bathroom stops. By the end of the tour, my group and I were so thankful we chose Mahalo Tours due to our driver's insights and expertise driving along the route. If you are looking for the best Road to Hana tour, pick this one! Fantastic tour guide (USMC Gulf War veteran) and the best way to travel to Hana! More read less

I have to apologize as I forget the tour guides name. We took the Road to Hana Tour. Be prepared for the long haul as the tour is very long, but worth it. The guide was funny, informative, and very helpful. The waterfalls, different ecosystems, and other stunning scenery was wonderful. The food was also very good. Unlike some of the other Hana tours this one took a complete circle of the area so you always saw different attractions. The small size (8) was also a plus. read less

After reading so many reviews with all the different option in Maui- we decided on Mahalo Tours for our trip. It was a great choice. They are locally owned & a smaller company & that goes a long way. We had Mak as our guide and he was great. He had so many stories to share along with a lot of history which our goup really apprecited. We saw another tour company at one of our stops and the guide stayed with his van while Mak offered some facts on the beautiful vegetation to both our group & the other tour companies group (not a good look on their part); so glad we decided to not to go wtih them. Mak was a great driver & I was very comfortable with him behind the wheel. We were provided numerous snacks, water & flexibilty. Lunch from Braddah Huts BBQ was delicious. He entertained us with Hawaiian music in the van & sincerely made the long day easy, breezy & a memorable one. Money (and more importantly time) well spent. More read less

I enjoyed it a lot! We saw more than 12 waterfalls in our way! But I have to be honest it is scary! You go up, down, right, and left through all the road. The road is very narrow! One side for cars coming both ways! So if you have motion sickness or any back problems, I don't recommend it. Our guied today was so nice and he was so informative about the island.

There was one other lady that joined our group of 7. So to make all of us acquainted with each other, Jamie recommended we introduce ourselves. She started first and made us feel like we're family by saying that we can call her auntie if we ever forget what her name was. Throughout the whole tour, Jaime knew something about everything we saw - the plants, history of the island, the weather, where to look at for nice views. She answered all the question we had about anything Maui and Road to Hana related. One of my friend got car sick (not bc of Jaime's driving, she's usually more prone to car sickness) and during one of our stop, she had to throw up. Jaime saw and brought her a bottle of water to help her wash off what got onto her hair. This was very nice of Jaime to do! She introduced us to some local artist and played some of their music for us. In return, we introduced her to ratchet music and she was in for a surprise.

I say all that to say I really wasn’t sure the kids were going to enjoy the very long day. I couldn’t have been more wrong. From the moment Justin picked us up at 7am till the 6pm drop off, we were all smiles. Justin was born and raised on Maui so he was very knowledgeable. But even more importantly, he was very personable and funny. Justin took the time to get to know each of us and would joke around with us, which the kids all loved. He took us to many of the standard stops but also many that the larger groups couldn’t see. We stopped at a couple beautiful waterfalls. Both were a little difficult to get to the water but Justin was right there making sure each of us found the safest way. (A lot of sites said water shoes weren’t necessary but I would recommend) We went to a beach where sea turtles like to sunbath. We went to the black sand beach (more like black pebble beach). We ate an amazing lunch at Huli Huli Chicken Shack next to the red sand beach. So beautiful. Several choices for lunch included in tour cost. All of the choices were delicious and huge....

The road definitely got more bumpy but we got to see so much more, even where Justin grew up.

Anyway, I’m sure I could go on but I will sum up by saying Justin was exceptional and Mahalo is lucky to have him and you will not be disappointed in this tour. Oh we even saw a bunch of mongoose.

LOVE that they are locally owned, have a max of 8 passengers per luxury van (comfort +), that they hire only local guides so you get the insider/local perspective, AND you get to experience the full circle tour, no backtracking.

Spending 10+ hours on a tour being carefully driven through the the most beautiful scenery, endless curves & one-lane bridges by Justin...along with 7 other passengers, was such a fun "Hawaiian Roller Coaster" experience. Justin’s high energy + aloha spirit was beyond welcoming and very entertaining. His jokes and thoughtfully synced soundtrack made the time fly by (the yummy snacks helped, too). The tour was very informative not only about Road to Hana, but everything else in Maui and Hawaiian culture. Justin shared his own experiences about growing up in Hana which added a nice touch to the tour. He has a great personality and perspective on life, going above and beyond to make sure we were not disappointed.

Highly Recommended! Mahalo, Justin. More read less
