5.00Marty, our tour guide did everything humanly possible to provide us a five star tour. The stops we made, the information he gave, his care about us as fellow travellers had our van full of strangers feeling like family. Safe driver, solicitous of needs. Beautiful tour PACKED with waterfalls, turtles, black sand, lush scenery, you name it. WELL WORTH a day of your vacation!! Thank you!!
10/10 absolutely incredible way to spend 8-12 hours in a car with some strangers all on the same journey as you!

5.00Marty was an incredible tour guide! Picking us up bright and early in the morning. He was so welcoming and friendly right off the bat. Greeting both my husband and I by name. The van was very comfortable and well air conditioned the whole time (the listing was spot on). From the time we started the tour Marty was giving us his ‘fun facts’ the entire time speaking about the culture of Hawaii, the history of all the plants, fruits, people, food, drink, etc. you name it and Marty probably knows it!!! Not only was Marty an amazing tour guide he could start a side hustle as an IPhone photographer as well, taking the coolest photos of us! Throughout the drive we got so many cool photo opportunities and spending ample amounts of time at the stops along the way, between the famous banana bread from Sandy’s, fresh fruit on the side of the road, and all the waterfalls in-between, this tour has everything you need to have a great day!
Great, informative. Very knowledgeable guide.

4.00The Road to Hana was absolutely unforgettable! Our guide, Quin was knowledgeable, friendly, and made every stop along the way feel special. From breathtaking waterfalls and lush rainforests to the scenic coastal views, every moment was picture-perfect. The pacing was just right — we had plenty of time to explore, take photos, and soak in the beauty of Maui’s natural wonders.
Highly recommend

5.00Marty was professional, courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable. We were on time and did everything as promised. I would highly recommend this tour. I’m glad I decided on doing a tour rather than doing this trip myself. I would have missed a lot of scenic spots and sights. The tour gave me peace of mind and a break from driving so that I could be a passenger and enjoy the views.
Excellent tour of Road

5.00We went on the Luxury Road to Hana Waterfalls, black sand beach & lunch. The tour started at 5:55am and went until about 3pm or so. We really enjoyed it! Marty, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable, funny, and engaging. We made several stops along the way, including the beach with black sand…wild. The waterfalls were just like the pictures/movies/TV shows you’ve seen. Just beautiful. And we were able to jump off the 25 ft waterfall into very cold water—but so worth it! Very fun! The views to/from were amazing. Marty made the whole trip enjoyable by asking questions to the whole group so we were able to get to know the other couples/families that were in our van/tour. It made the day that much more fun. All and all, highly recommend this tour as you will get a lot of great details about Hawaii, get to see some of the coolest spots on the island as well as have a blast all day. Plus, you do not want to drive that road yourself. Highly recommend!
Great tour
