$800 to spend 6-7 hours in a van with 10 people. We arrived way too early at Haleakala - almost 2 hours before sunrise, and had to sit in the dark in a tightly packed van, torture. Guide left us at top, no tour, no light, no jackets at top. Use a different company or drive yourself. Jacket and pants are a must.

This wasn’t what we expected. We were in a mixed group with a cycling tour, was the clear focus of the tour company. We spent a lot of time listening to instructions for the bike tour. As a result we were late arriving to the summit and missed some of the color changes before sunrise. We booked this tour because it was estimated at 6 hours (unlike 10 estimates for others) but we were out of our house for close to 9 hours. I would recommend taking a dedicated sunrise tour over this experience. That said it did have its positives. The driver was pleasant and knowledgeable. The breakfast was excellent. And of course the view is once in a lifetime.

You get up really early, get on a bus, get driven up the mountain to the highest peak, and get to watch something simply beautiful - the sunrise from the highest point on the island. You will be above the clouds and get to welcome the sun to another day. Besides seeing a sunrise, you will get a nearly 360° view of Maui, from the valley to the mountains and even the nearby islands. On your way down, you’ll get to stop at a few points for more views and pictures. Our last stop was at the restaurant for a tasty, and well deserved breakfast. Things to look out for: 1) the weather - at our resort, it was 72°, but at 6am, it was 40° and windy. Making it feel colder. 2) if it’s cold in the morning, pack extra layers. We had a stop at the “shop” (the drivers headquarters) where you can use the bathroom and grab extra coats, but we had packed additional layers. For each stop on the way up, we added layers. And remove them as we slowly came back down. 3) Also, pack gloves and scarves for extra protection against cold elements. Pack plenty of water and snacks. 4) We got picked up at our resort at 2:15 at the Westin, and weren’t back until 10am. Breakfast was around 9am, so pack snacks to hold you over. We planned this on day 1 to deal with the jet lag. It worked out perfectly.

Cory was an excellent tour guide. He shared a lot of information about Maui, stopped so we could look at the stars and was very friendly!
