The tour was great and our guide was very informative. I am happy I chose the tour because if I would have driven myself I would have missed a lot and the roads were very curvy. Our guide took us to some very nice places.

Magical Maui tour

We did two tours with Vicente, and it were the best tour experiences we ever had.Vicente shared history, background information and fun facts during the tour with us. He showed us all kinds of flowers and plants while passing by on the road to Hana. He knows where are delicious lunch and dinner places. He is super professional, thoughtful in every way and a fantastic, versed driver. We felt welcomed, safe and in good hands all time.

This tour was amazing! In addition to seeing the beautiful sunset, we were also able to stargaze and see the Milky Way. Trish is so knowledgeable and passionate about the crater and stars, and it shows. She was able to point out so many fun facts about the crater, wildlife, and the constellations. She also provided chairs, warm jackets, gloves, and hats if you needed, and had hot chocolate or hot tea for when it was time to gaze at the stars. Would highly recommend this tour. This was one of our favorite experiences in Maui.

Highly recommend Amazing Maui Stars

Highly recommend this tour! After a 90 minute drive up, you see this awesome, other worldly crater - as well as the peaks of Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa on the Big Island. After a spectacular sunset - that you see fully to the end, watching the stars come out and the moon rise was stunning. Trish is super knowledgeable - the hot chocolate and warm jackets were really appreciated!

Must Do Snorkeling Adventure

We had an A+++ experience on this excursion! There was a small miscommunication with my booking, but Barbie was incredibly accommodating and made everything right. She truly has a heart of gold. It's obvious that she's passionate about giving back to her community, especially by making snorkeling accessible for those with disabilities. Her kindness and dedication are just as impressive as the tour itself.Barbie also sends a text the night before with clear directions on where to meet and exactly what to expect.The tour begins with an amazing presentation. I don't want to give away any details because I don't want to spoil it, but it's informative, engaging, and really sets the tone for the experience. If you've ever been hesitant about snorkeling or are concerned about safety, make this your very first snorkeling adventure. Safety was clearly the top priority from start to finish.I've been on more than 50 snorkeling excursions, and this was the first time my family was given magnetic shark deterrent ankle bands. That extra attention to safety really stood out and gave us even more confidence in the water.Viktor was our guide, and we had an absolute blast with him! He made sure everyone felt safe while showing us every square inch of one of the most beautiful bays in Maui. Along the way, he pointed out pufferfish, eels, turtles, and so much other amazing marine life that we would have completely missed on our own. He was knowledgeable, fun, and made the experience unforgettable.My kids especially loved using the sea scooters. After Viktor showed them a few tricks, they were doing somersaults underwater! My son even pulled off a double somersault with the sea scooter!This excursion was a 10/10 in every way. Between Barbie's genuine compassion and commitment to her guests and community, and Viktor's incredible guidance and enthusiasm, this was easily one of the best excursions we've ever done. I can't recommend it enough. Don't leave Maui without experiencing it, you won't regret it!

Maui Pineapple Tour: Farm and Feast Experience

You will appreciate pineapple much more

This was very educational, taste testing in the field, and a pineapple to go home. It takes 18 months to grow pineapple, but really much longer as the soil has to be prepared.

Jill was amazing. It was our first time on Maui and she made sure to steer us towards truly unique experiences and away from some tourist traps. The ride in the Bronco truly provided an immersive experience of being in the rainforest and her skill in navigating the road in on/off rainy conditions left us able to take it all in. Black and red sand beaches, turtles, George, Huli Huli chicken, waterfalls, you name it! Truly unforgettable experience!
