Back in November 2018 we made a reservation for this island tour. Received the email that we were confirmed for April 30, 2019. We were so excited to go. Less than two weeks before our tour date I received an email that the tour date was "over-booked" and we'd have to change dates. Seriously, how could they be "over-booked" when we were confirmed 5 months prior?? We were told we'd have to go on Sunday, April 28th, but we had already made other plans for that date, so we ask to switch to Saturday April 27th. While sitting in the airport in San Francisco on Thursday, April 25th I got a phone call that they couldn't take us on the group tour that day BUT..if we wanted to pay MORE MONEY we could get a "private tour". I politely told them to FORGET IT and requested a refund. To say I was angry was an understatement. This is the poorest agency I have ever booked with..and I've been to Hawaii 7 times and taken MANY tours. Will never book with them again. Glad others seem to have enjoyed the tour. Wish we could have.......

Demian was an amazing tour guide. He definitely gave us our money’s worth and catered the day to what we wanted to do. He also made amazing suggestions that took us to some sights that are well off the beaten path, where all the tourists are, like the petroglyphs. He made our “delayed” honeymoon a trip that we won’t forget. My wife’s only request was to see sea turtles without having tosnorkelkng for them, he knew right where to find them. I would suggest this tour for anyone who wants to see the island. Thank you Demian for the experience you gave to me and my wife. We appreciate it!

Demian really came through for us in a pinch. We didn't realize Spring Break was occurring, but he was able to get us set up with Zach and we had a blast. As a head's up for anyone wondering about visiting Hawaii during Covid, do your research. The landscape is changing all the time. At the time of our trip, the state is still not at full capacity. Also, if anyone is wondering how to interisland travel. There is a 72 hour window. In order to visit Maui, we got tested Thursday at Walgreen's in our home state, had results in 2 hours, and registered for 2 trips on Hawaii's Safe Travels site. We flew into Honolulu on Friday, flew into Maui on Saturday for a day trip, then returned to Honolulu for the rest of our vacation. The Safe Travels line moved faster in Honolulu than coming into Maui. Zach was able to pick up at the airport in the morning, cater a day tour to what we were interested in seeing, and got us back to the airport with enough time to make it back with no issues. I encourage you to take the time to give these guys a try. I reached out to another company, and they gave me bad info about Safe Travels, and I'm glad I didn't listen to them.

This is a good and inexpensive way to do the Haleakala sunset tour with audio narrative of things to see along the way to the mountain top. Good value for the price. A quick tip: this app burns through your phone battery fast so having a car phone cable is a must or else your phone battery will run out of juice pretty quick...

Zac was very knowledgeable about all of the plants and birds and where the right places to stop...we even hiked a bit to a waterfall and we're the only ones there...entire waterfall and pool to ourselves. Had the chance to do good hike into a lava tube we would have never found if not for Zac. My wife and I loved the stress free experience and Zac was incredibly helpful on everything.

Private and customizable in an open-top (weather permitting) Jeep, our adventures provide a truly immersive experience, both in and out of the vehicle. All Hana adventures begin at 6:15 am or 7:30 am. This early start time allows us to get ahead of the crowds so you can enjoy the popular locations with as few people as possible. If 6:15 am or 7:30 am is too early for you, we can pick you up at a time that works best for you (no later than 9 am). Take as much or as little time as you need at each stop, this is your adventure! We are here to do the driving, so you can relax and enjoy the views on your customized private tour.

We planned only one excursion for our entire trip and we definitely picked the right one!! From the moment Scotty Joe picked us up, to the moment he dropped us off we never stopped learning interesting things about the island. We also never stopped laughing!!! The sightseeing was indescribably breathtaking! Scott Joe's knowledge of the island was immeasurable. We felt completely and utterly safe with him behind the wheel and the road definitely got a little hairy at times!! My husband and I aren't big on excursions and we are usually a couple that just does their own thing. So when I say this tour was a good choice, believe me it truly was!!

Your road to Hana excursion will be once in a lifetime because all members of the group can sit and look out at the views. The guide has all the history and legends that you will come back knowing more than most locals. With your personal input, we'll customize your private Maui tour to feature what matters most to you. The tour taken can be taken clockwise or counter clockwise around the whole island. Your tour will include remote waterfalls, hidden beaches, local favorite food stops, and an off-the-beaten-track drive around the "back side". Most people will never get this in depth of a tour exploring Maui's hidden, unique destinations. Your private guide can take photos of your group while you focus on having fun in nature. We offer small private groups so that you will never feel stuck on a big bus. We are also flexible to different choices along the way. This tour is the best excursion offered on Maui's Road to Hana which is one of the most popular tour destinations in Hawaii.

Inclusions: World Famous Banana Bread, Air-conditioned vehicle, Bottled water, Private transportation

Exclusions: We stop for a delicous lunch in Hana town. Lunch and snacks will cost about $15-$30..00, Guests can buy a alcoholic beverage in Hana at the Hana Hotel or the Hana Ranch Restaurant., Coffee and/or Tea

Yesterday my sister and I spent the day with Kellen on the 1/2 way to Hana. It was a perfect way to see and experience the beauty of Maui with a local! He was a great guide with lots of history and stories about the island and island culture. We stopped at many different places along the way that are known to locals, not just the same places everyone stops. Highly recommend Kellen and Local Maui Tours for anyone that really wants to experience Maui!
