2.Road To Hana: Maui Waterfall Hiking Tour in Private Jeep

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 343 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $299

Review of Maui’s private Road to Hana Jeep tour, with waterfalls, bamboo forest, local food, flexible stops, guide Alec, price, and practical tips.

“HIGHLY recommend! So many hidden gems that you would miss driving the road to Hana yourself. At most of the stops we were the only ones there or maybe one other small group. It was so nice to see the beauty up-close outside of the car, and to get view of the island more as a local would while still checking out the sights that draw tourists to the road to Hana.”

“Adam is the best tour guide you could ask for. He was a bouncing ball of infectious energy that had us happy to challenge ourselves in the valley of fire. He was happy to share stories, and his amazing finds from himself and his other tours. He wasn't afraid to say he didn't know something, but you could tell he would know for the next tour. He made our visit a one of a kind experience and was happy to do so, he was ready to make the trip whatever we wanted, just had to say. If only we could take him to every park. 5 stars is not enough…”
