What To Expect
Haleakala National Park
Ascend to the summit of Maui's magnificent dormant volcano for the ultimate vacation highlight at Haleakala National Park, reaching 10,023 feet above sea level in this spectacular must do on Maui experience. As one of only six permitted companies authorized to offer Haleakala tours, we provide exclusive access to witness breathtaking sunrises that have inspired visitors since the 1800s, explore the otherworldly volcanic crater landscape, and discover rare endemic silversword plants found nowhere else on Earth. This extraordinary Haleakala National Park adventure combines stunning volcanic vistas, unique high-altitude ecosystems, and the unforgettable experience of standing atop Maui's sacred volcano, making it an essential vacation highlight that showcases the raw natural power and beauty that defines the Hawaiian Islands.
Haleakala Crater
The magnificent Haleakala Crater is an awe-inspiring geological wonder that stretches 11.25 miles across, 3.2 miles wide, and plunges nearly 2,600 feet deep, creating one of the world's most spectacular volcanic landscapes. The Pa Ka'oao Trail (also known as White Hill Trail) is a short 0.4-mile hike that starts at the visitor center and leads to an elevated overlook offering breathtaking views of the crater floor. This mini hike is just half a mile and well worth the effort, providing visitors with an exceptional vantage point to truly appreciate the massive scale and otherworldly beauty of the crater. The views from atop this conical mound are significantly better than those from the visitor center, making it an ideal way for tour guests to experience the raw volcanic power and stark beauty that defines Haleakala's "house of the sun" landscape.

Perfect outing for the family

5.00We are on a family trip to Maui and did this tour yesterday. This trip is a mixture of repeat visitors and first time visitors. We loved this option of seeing two of the biggest sites in one trip. As a party of 10 we chose to do a private tour. Eric was our tour guide and he was absoulutely fabulous from start to finish! We loved spending the time together as a family since we had ventured from around the country. We were able to customize our day and go at our own pace. Eric was extremely knowlegeable about the island and our journey. He was able to answer all questions and for those of us who had been before, he was able to explain some of the changes that we were seeing compared to our prior trip. Having someone else to navigate the road to Hana is always a win! Doing the private tour allowed us to fellowship with one another and just sit back and enjoy the scenery and his Hawaiian playlist. The van was clean, spacious, and well maintained. The stash of snacks and beverages kept us fueled up for our day. The day was perfect and we would recommend this trip, and Eric, hands down! It was money and time well spent and it will surely be the highlight of our time together here in Maui.

5.00Bryan was awesome and very throughal. We enjoyed our tour. Didn't really like the half way to hana lunch stop. He needs to try the place up the road from there. Wish it wasn't a cloudy rainy day when we went.

5.00Great trip to the top of Haleakala National Park, took my breath away figuratively and literally. Road halfway to Hana was beautiful and educational although I may have learned more than I wanted to know about Taylor Swift… the Rainbow Eucalyptus trees were so unique and beautiful. Our guide Bryan knew his stuff. Great day in Maui!!
The best time!

5.00Bryan did a tremendous job keeping us entertained, informed, and fed throughout our day together. I appreciated hearing about life on the island from a local perspective, all while sitting back and letting someone else navigate the narrow, winding roads.
