Book a private, custom Maui adventure of a lifetime. The most sought-after experience is our reverse Road to Hana Loop (when available due to road conditions), but our tours are fully customizable to experience special locations across the island. Our guides are students of Hawaiian cultural practitioners and are committed to operating pono (doing what is right). We are honored and prepared to share mo'olelo (stories), history, and ike (knowledge) about Hawaiian culture. Some of our guests' favorite spots are special waterfalls, red and black sand beaches, and delicious beachside local huli huli chicken.
