Road to Hana Tour with Mike

Tammy_V, Apr 2024

Our tour guide was Mike. He did an amazing job of stopping at waterfalls, telling us about the plants and wildlife, and even stopping at a couple local markets. We loved seeing the Rainbow Eucalyptus trees. He even accommodated our request to see the turtles. We had an enjoyable time! Definitely was worth not driving the Road to Hana ourselves!

Absolutely beautiful to read! Mahalo nui loa! Thank you for your review

BOOK YOUR TOUR HERE WITH MIKE!!

Stacy_J, Apr 2024

My husband and I are on our honeymoon and our tour guide Mike was amazing!! We were really lucky and we were the only ones that day. He kept us comfortable and laughing the whole time. He was so knowledgeable about the plant life. We got a chance to try fresh Hawaiian fruit and even drink and eat straight from a fresh coconut and keep the bamboo straws that he made! We got to see, try, and do things that you wouldn’t experience driving yourself OR from any other commercial tour! (Trust me I’ve been on one and they all stop at the same places with crowds) DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND BOOK YOUR ROAD TO HANA TOUR HERE AND ASK FOR MIKE!!

Response from Host, Apr 2024

This melts our hearts! Literally the most awesome review I’ve ever read. I’m so grateful you guys could appreciate all the magic that he brings to his people. He’s an absolute legend. And clearly you are both very epic people. Come back soon! Aloha

Awesome Tour with Awesome Tour Guide Mike

Mark_I, Mar 2024

We came to Maui for our honeymoon & was so excited to do this tour. We arrived and our tour guide went above and beyond the ENTIRE time. His name was Mike and he made us laugh the whole time. He knew so much about Maui and the special nature of it all. He let us stop wherever we wanted and bought us the best warm fresh banana bread. He loaded up on waters, pop, tea and even brought us a towel after swimming in the waterfalls. One of the coolest parts was when he pulled over and opened this fresh coconut & provided us with cool bamboo straws - now that was an experience right there. We got to take the bamboo straws home. After we drank the coconut juice, he peeled the coconut for us to eat. This tour will NOT let you down. It was so much more than we expected & it was the most amazing experience we’d ever done. All thanks to our tour guide, Mike. If you can- REQUEST HIM!!!

Response from Host, Apr 2024

This is so cool! Love hearing how he made this experience so special for you! You guys are so awesome! Mahalo for your review and for your time! A huí ho

Mike the GOAT

Omar_G, Mar 2024

Mike was so cool made me and my wife feel very comfortable I recommend asking for Mike for the best tour to hana

Response from Host, Mar 2024

I agree completely, there is no better person to show you Hana! Love that you felt that way too! a hui ho

So awesome!

Alison_B, Mar 2024

We had a fantastic time with our tour guide Mike and the family we took our tour with. If you're thinking of taking a Road to Hana tour, do yourself a favor and spend the extra for the private tour. It was worth every penny! Mike was very knowledgeable about all the sights, plants and wildlife. He made our experience so memorable and was great with my daughter. We got a completely personalized experience with incredible food, drinks, snacks, photos and time to enjoy ourselves. 10/5 stars, would definitely recommend!

Response from Host, Mar 2024

This is incredible!!! mahalo nui loa, thank you for making our day with your beautiful words! we appreciate you!

Cancelled 9 PM Day Before

Kip_S, May 2022

Cancelled on us night before at 9 PM, I’ve gotten 3 requests since to review my trip. Tons of spam email and texts.

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Aloha, yes with your guide coming down with cold symptoms late at night during a pandemic. We take it very seriously. We make sure that the guides are healthy and of no risk to getting guests sick. This is the first cancellation that has been so late at night the day before. But we would rather not have any risk of getting you sick. We have since, fully refunded you and offered a complimentary tour on a different day or a discounted tour on a future date. We have also reached out in emails with genuine apologies. Reviews like this deeply hurt our company. And we have tried everything we can to make it up to you. We hope you had a lovely rest of your trip on Maui! Many apologies!

Road to Hana beauty

Amazing to read thank you!!

Awesome experience

Francis_A, Oct 2021

This was an awesome experience. This was a private tour with just the 2 of us and the guide Kobe was extremely knowledgeable and took us to places we would have never gone.

Response from Host, Oct 2021

This is Awesome to read! Mahalo for your beautiful words!

All around great day

Janie_D, Oct 2021

We had a great time! Super small group (2 couples) and everything was personalized. We were able to make requests and stop where we wanted. Our guide also demonstrated the safe way to jump in the waterfall! He avoided the big crowds and found alternate routes and better sites. Prepare for all weather and bring a jacket/raincoat and water shoes were super handy. The guide didn't bring the go pro, which wasn't an issue, and took lots of pics/videos for us. We ate lunch in Hana and I had The BEST fish tacos that were at Da Fish Shack.

Response from Host, Oct 2021

Love reading this! Thank you for sharing your experience with us and taking the time to write about it. Mahalo nui loa

Spectacular

Karen_C, Sep 2021

Justin was our tour guide! He was awesome! He knew every detail about the Hana highway plus even more about specific things we were looking at. He was a wealth of information and we loved listening to him. He was on time picking us up at our hotel. He helped us when we needed help especially when we went to the waterfall swimming. We are 4 ladies in our sixties and he was fine entertaining us. We of course entertained him too with our antics. We laughed all day long. He bought us a great lunch, gave us water, towels, etc. and always made pit stops for us too. I can’t say enough about how AWESOME Justin is as a tour guide. We give him 10 stars not five!

Response from Host, Oct 2021

Thank you so much! This made our day! Lots of love you!

Highly recommend this tour!!

Zach_H, Sep 2021

We loved our tour with Chad! He was very patient and took every single picture we asked him to. It was just my wife and I so we had his full attention the entire time, which was nice! He took us to some amazing spots!
