This day-long private tour invites you to discover the best of this iconic drive with a dedicated guide customizing every stop to your interests, blending natural wonders and local flavor into one unforgettable adventure.
Beginning with hotel or condo pickup near Kahului around 8:00 AM, your knowledgeable guide leads you along the 64-mile Road to Hana, a route famous for its twisting curves and captivating vistas. Your journey includes opportunities to swim beneath cascading waterfalls, explore dense jungle trails, and sample freshly baked banana bread from roadside stands. You’ll also pause at dramatic coastal blowholes and access secluded black sand beaches separated from the usual crowds, a rare treat in such a well-known area.
Upon reaching the town of Hāna, you’ll enjoy free time to browse local shops or relax over lunch at a laid-back café, soaking in the serene atmosphere of this quiet Hawaiian community.
