Mobile ticket

Witness the dawning of a new day atop Haleakala (the house of the sun) a dormant volcanic mountain overlooking Maui on the east side. Deep canyons and slopes and unspoiled terrain are home to endemic Hawaiian Nene geese and rare Silversword plants.

You'll be transported in a comfortable mini coach to 9,740 feet elevation, close to the summit to witness the ultimate sunrise; a spectacular show of lights and colors. The sunrise tour is an unforgettable experience and a definite must-do on your Hawaii vacation. On the descent, marvel at sprawling scenic views of Kula and the Pacific Ocean on your way to breakfast at local favorite, Cafe O'Lei at the Plantation in Waikapu.

Haleakala is known for rapidly changing weather conditions and dense clouds and rain are common. As a result, clear viewing of the sunrise is not guaranteed, and the tour operates rain or shine. Refunds will be granted only when the tour is cancelled for safety reasons.

The high altitude at the summit area may complicate health conditions and breathing difficulties. Elderly visitors, pregnant women, young children, and those with respiratory or heart conditions should consult their doctor prior to touring. Walk slowly and drink water to avoid dehydration. If you have gone scuba diving, you should wait at least 72 hours before going on this tour.

    Our driver was the best. He was not only friendly & informative but funny & caring. I felt as if he took care of us in every aspect. He even said a short prayer was extra special to us. The experience was more than I expected. The bus was large & comfy. It was a little cold once we got to the top of the volcano but tolerable. I highly recommend taking the time to see this amazing sunrise.

  • a must!

    Great experience. The drive up on the winding roads and watching sunrise above the clouds, on the mountain was awesome and the weather was perfect.

    We loved the sunrise tour. Our driver, Wayne, was incredibly informative and told us all about the mountain going up and down. This company didn't provide coats so we went to Ross the day before and bought sweatshirts and sweatpants for the family. The mountain was cold, but definitely worth it!
