The BEST experience on Maui! It is worth the EARLY wake up call! Very cold up there, don’t be fooled by being in Hawaii - dress in pants and sweater. They do offer large wool jackets which I don’t think I would have made it without it!

Fantastic excursion! Thank goodness we did this because we were completely unprepared for how cold and windy it was up there!

It was fabulous!! Worth the money! The fleece lined poncho was a life saver (they provided). Dress in layers & bring a tripod if possible!! Our guides were FABULOUS & shared facts & history we would have missed on our own. The breakfast was also yummy & a very nice end to our morning!!

Incredible Experience! Everett and Brad were great tour guides and drivers. I learned a lot and these guys had some insulated ponchos with hoods for us to use. Breakfast was fantastic. I would tell you it is very cold up top and I’d bring some gloves and maybe a knit cap and gator if I did it again.

We had a breath taking experience of Haleakalā sunrise ! We were picked up on time , provided with warm coats and tour guides Mr Everett and Mr Brad were very cooperative and well informed. They gave us all the info needed. In return the breakfast place was very good - tasty food and beautiful scenery in the Plantation Cafe. All in all would rate it a 5 Star !!

We experienced sunrise at Haleakala with Valley Isles excursions company and it was the highlight of our vacation. Abe was our tour guide and was professional, funny, safety-conscious, and made the whole experience fabulous. We arrived at the sunrise location in the park in plenty of time to get prime viewing spots and were not disappointed as the sun slowly put on a show. The tour company provided fleece-lined ponchos that were perfect for the cold, windy conditions. After a second stop to observe the volcano, we were treated to a wonderful breakfast at Maui Plantation. All along the way, Abe explained the significance of the sunrise and the mountain in the Hawaiian culture as well as sharing lots of information about the flora and fauna of the area. Looking at our pictures of the sunrise still fills me with wonder. If you do nothing but this excursion while in Maui, you won't be disappointed!

This was a great excursion! Pick up was on time. Our guide, Abe, did a fantastic job describing what we could expect on the drive up to the viewing site, as well as what to do to be safe while there. He shared Hawaiian history, culture, and, and language with all of us. Breakfast was hearty and we were back at our hotel by 10. Truly worthwhile!
