As soon as he picked us up, we knew it was going to be a great day! He was a great driver, we felt safe and comfortable with all the stops and turns on the Road to Hana. Junior was so knowledgeable and full of energy. He kept us informed and we really enjoyed our conversations with him! We had a lot of laughs. He really made the tour enjoyable, so we were not scared of the cliffs or turns. The lunch was DELICIOUS! Excellent bbq at a local restaurant! The van was comfortable and it really was a great day. The stops were fantastic. We have such beautiful pictures from the day! Even though we were traveling as a couple, there was a family with children that came with us. Everyone was happy! Thank you again to Junior and Mahalo Tours!! read less

I was intimidated by the reputation the road to Hana has but I was so pleasantly surprised how comfortable and safe I felt with Mahalo. Mack was our guide and he was training Shelly so we were fortunate enough to have 2 experts on our trip and together they were great. We were picked up from the Kaanapali area at 6:50am and made it back to hotel by 7pm. We were fed a breakfast of fruit and local breads, lunch was amazing, the huli huli chicken is the way to go there, and a snack of chips and fruits in the afternoon with plenty offers of drinks along the way. I was worried about my 10 year old who tends to get car sick but Mack is such a great driver and we stopped so often that it was never an issue. We did have a few opportunities to swim at a few spots but not for too long and that's just because the trip was so packed with places to see. I feel like it's a great value, 12 hours of hosted entertainment, history, meals while viewing the most beautiful parts of Maui. read less

The Van was very comfortable and the large windows allowed you to take pictures where there was no place to stop. I will never Forget MAC playing the Ukulele and singing The Hawaiian version of Somewhere over the Rainbow. Mac also explained how vowels are pronounced in Hawaiian and the pronunciation of w in words. Now I can pronounce Hawaiian words correctly. read less

When we started off, she let us know that if there was anything that we wanted to do that we had heard about, she would make it a priority...and she kept that promise. Having a guide that knows the ins and outs of this popular excursion is key to making it memorable for everyone, from my Mom (67) and daughter (7).

It was a wonderful experience. The sights were incredible and Junior was full of endless interesting information and answers to every possible question the entire all day experience. He was extremely funny and we felt safe on the winding roads under his guidance. Any request we had for potential additional stops or other sights to see he eagerly met. He had great stories the entire time for everything we were seeing And experiencing.

The tour was incredible and the sights were some of the best I have ever seen. And I couldn’t imagine having this tour with anyone else. If you are interested in the tour of Hana please do so with Mahalo Tours and be sure to request Junior! read less

We only had 8 people in our group and there was great visibility no matter where you sat. This is a very difficult road to drive and our driver Lenny was the best. I was never concerned for our safety like i would have been if we drove it ourselves. With having a driver you can enjoy all the scenery. Lenny was very informative, had a great sense of humor and a true love for Hawaii. We were provided snacks, water and a Hawaiian lunch. Loved it! read less

This is an excellent tour, only eight people per bus. Our driver, Nate learned and called us all by name. Great info from a Hana local and fun conversation. The lunch at his Mom’s food truck was outstanding. If you want a more personal experience instead of being packed in a bus with 25 people, book this tour. read less

Our third time on this trip but first with Mahalo Tours. This was by far the best guided tour we have been on. Makana was our driver. He was very friendly and warm.He knows the whole island like the back of his hand. The knowledge and stories he passed on to us are stuff that you cannot find in books or the internet. And the best part of the trip was his family feeding us. The food from Braddahs was the best Hawaiian lunch plate I have ever had. The Mahi Mahi was perfect and the kalua pork came straight from the emu. Definitely request Makana if you have a chance to go on this trip. read less

He grew up in the area so not only did we get information about the area we also heard what it was like to grow up in this amazing area. Our 12 year old also loved all the information Mac shared with us. The snacks along the way were great and the lunch was awesome the other tours we saw had sandwiches in ziplock bags ours was a hot delicious bbq meal. This is my family’s favorite most memorable excursion on Maui and as I said we will be back next year and Mahalo and Mac are at the top of our to do list. read less

With Jake as our driver/guide we had the best time I have ever had on a tour.
We saw black and red sand, lava tubes, blowholes and great scenery.
There was beautiful rain forest to open plains, such a varied tour.
Snacks, water, banana bread, fruit and some of the best salmon cooked at our lunch stop.
If you see Jake, say g’day, he is a genuine nice bloke. read less

We were taken completely around the Hana route, not just up and turn around. We visited many spots including the Rainbow Trees, Black and Red Sand beaches, Hana Bay, North Shore, Aunty Sandy’s famous banana bread made with Apple bananas. The food supplied was five star. My husband I enjoyed a salmon plate and a BBQ rib plate. We were picked up at our rental and dropped back off later. The entire tour included water falls and opportunities to swim. With every penny! A must do when in Maui. read less

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
