We had an outstanding adventure with Des on this excursion! She was so knowledgeable about Maui and kept a close eye on all of us in case we were struggling. Everyone loved her!
The only thing I would stress is that you need to be in shape to do this hike. The altitude can be an issue as it was a lot harder to do these two hikes but the scenery is incredible!

Our guide was wonderful! It was everything we wanted it to be. Our children aged 8 and 10 had the time of their life. It was their first excursion in Hawaii and the one they talked about the most. They said it was the best excursion ever. They loved the guide, the hiking, the swimming, and all the extra experiences they had.

This was an incredibly fun experience. What a great way to see the island. The first half was kayaking and snorkeling which was so fun—Jeremiah (Miah) was a knowledgeable and patient instructor. The second half was lunch and then a water fall hike with Nick from HikeMaui—Nick was a kind and intelligent guide and taught us so much about Maui. We also toured a farm and learned a lot about fruits and botany grown in Hawaii. 10/10 experience.

Sarah Yadao as our guide - she is native Hawaiin and her passion for her country shown through all of the hike. We got so see natural vegetation and enjoy tasting some of he plants and fruits and she was very knowledgable and shared this with us. So we didn’t just hike we explored and forages a little. Opportunities to swim in a waterfall or two and jump if we had the courage. There were pre teens in our group and us oldies and she managed to make us all feel welcome and at ease.
Fantastic guide fantastic journey and fantastic experience too. My husband and I are In our 50s and 60s and not the fittest and we managed really well.

From the moment my husband and I boarded the Limo-van we were impressed. The seats were luxurious and each one had USB charging outlets.
The tour itself matched the high-class method of transport. Our driver, Paul Janes-Brown made sure to give us every opportunity possible to get great photos and gave us great insights into the history of Maui.
Highly recommend this tour!

Sue was amazing. She made sure the van was in good condition before moving forward. She did not disappoint us all the way. She gave us a lot of info all throughout the trip. We did the cave expedition and we did not go to just one but 3.It was truly a great one!

Did this tour on our first trip and was not disappointed the 2nd time. Completely different experience. Older folks were able to jump off the 20ft ledges but they also had spots where it was anywhere from1-5ft for young ones or those that were unsure. The hike through the jungle is so beautiful.

Beautiful! Waterfalls, incredible coastline views, bamboo forests, complimentary banana bread, local food stands, and much more! But the best was our guide Kea. Impressive knowledge of all the attractions combined with his passionate understanding of Hawaiian history and culture; he was a great guide! We came away with so much more than we had planned on!

We booked a private Road to Hana Tour with Hola Hola tour group. Mauana was absolutely the most awesome guide! He was a gentleman, funny and full of knowledge regarding the history and culture of Hawaii. By the end of the day, we embraced him as family. It was worth every dollar to book this tour!
Hi Liz! Thank you so much for your awesome review! We really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and favorite pictures. We love Mana too! He is an amazing guide - full of knowledge and humor. We are so grateful to have him as part of our team. We hope to meet again! Until then... take care! Aloha!

Family had a fun time on the hike, very cool and guide was great. Customer service was not good though, I called 3 days prior because I injured my knee. I was told I would be able to do the hike it would be a moderate hike but doable. The day of I couldn't bend my knee so I stayed back, my husband was told no refund even though I let them know 3 days before that I had an injury. Had they not encouraged me I would have canceled the day I called, that is why I was calling them. In the end when Veltra contacted them they fully refunded my money. It was greatly appreciated!

My wife and I had an amazing time on this private tour of the road to Hana. Ana did an amazing job and was super cool and friendly!! Got to hit a lot of the spots we wanted to see, including the bamboo forest, swimming in waterfalls, tidal pools, lunch and banana bread from Aunty Sandy's. Sampled some fresh guava off the the side of the road Awesome views. Also, Ana, loved talking movies and tv shows with you! Great times!!
Thank you so much for the fantastic review! Feedback like this makes our hearts sing!! Hana has so many amazing sights and experiences. Thank you for trusting us with your precious time on this part of the island! Perhaps we shall meet in the future... until then, take care!!

We had an amazing personalized tour of Maui driving through the Hana Road. Gus and AnnaLisa both provided a fantastic narrative of the beautiful island of Maui from the lush rain forest to the beach and circled entire island. Stopped at wonderful places for local banana bread to ice cream and BBQ lunch as well as local island coffee. Enjoyed hearing about Maui’s culture, history, plants and flowers. Not to mention the breathe tasting scenery with personalized photos. Very social distance friendly and felt completely safe throughout the tour. Highly recommended.
Thank you so much for your fantastic review!!! We really appreciate you taking the time and making the effort to share your thoughts with others. We are so grateful to have met. Both of us came home yesterday glowing from venturing with you. Mahalo for choosing us!!! We hope to meet again... warmest aloha

Sean was our guide and he was fantastic!!!
Very knowledgeable! We were shocked when he said he has only been on the island for 5 years. We thought he was living there a lot longer with the vast amount of information he gave us. He was very patient with us slower people, lol! Thank you Sean for a wonderful experience.

Very unique experience not to be missed while traveling to Maui. Completely different from anything else on the island and I highly recommend it. Having a driver was great just so we can spend more time looking around and he knew several of the places to stop that we otherwise would have had no idea about. Also places do not stop, they were covered in tourist and other things. Our driver and the service did a great job.
Mahalo nui for your wonderful review! We appreciate you trusting us with your precious time on the island! Having a unique experience is our goal. We hope to meet again!

Our morning waterfall hike was fabulous. Tony was an amazing guide and spent lots of time answering our questions. We have 14, 11, and 6 year old kids and the hike was the perfect amount of time and difficulty for all of them to enjoy it. We loved learning about the history of the area, the agriculture, and experiencing it all firsthand. This was a highlight of our trip.
Aloha Holly, Thanks so much for the wonderful review! So happy you had such a nice time with Hike Maui and guide Tony. We'll be sure to pass your kind words along to him. Mahalo!

We had a great time on the Road to Hana. Our wonderful guide made some wonderful stops and shared a lot of interesting information with us along our journey. She made sure we got great pictures and had a wonderful experience. I lost the card with her name on it but she told us to call her Auntie. She has lived on the island for a long time and taught us so much about the history. It was all very interesting. I would highly recommend this tour.
Mahalo for taking the time to review and recommend your Road to Hana Cave-Quest adventure. Our Hawai'i Certified Tour Guides are well versed in so many areas of history, plants, and real stories. We are thrilled you enjoyed yourselves. The Road to Hana is certainly a one-of-a-kind experience that shouldn't be missed. Now, you will have wonderful photos to remember a very special day. Happy New Year.
All the best,

My husband and I had a wonderful experience with the Rainforest & Waterfall Swim Hike in Maui! We were able to experience it all: pretty tame trails, swimming in cool waters, and cliff diving from the falls. This adventure is appropriate for families (but I wouldn't take very young children), couples, or solos that desiring a peaceful hike.
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly the entire hike. He was also very accommodating (I had a shoulder injury at the time) and the hike was still very enjoyable!
There were plenty of times to rest, swim, and eat snacks. Our guide was attentive to our needs and provided other suggestions of what to check out/visit during our stay on the island. I highly recommend!

This tour was so fun. We had a really nice driver that talked about the culture and history of Maui, and she even asked my wife and I questions about ourselves. She knew all the best places to stop & take pictures, eat banana bread, and what literally every plant was. She was truly and expert guide. At one point, she stopped at a waterfall for us to look at, and she said we could jump off of it and she'd take a video of us. And we did!! It was SO fun. Wow. I would do this again. Anyone who goes might want to bring a change of clothes/a towel in case you want to go for a swim!
Thank you so much for the awesome review! Traveling the Road to Hana is an epic experience. Becoming friends the the sweetest part :) Thank you so much for trusting us with your precious time on the island. Wishing you the very best in all you do! A hui hou, until next time

My husband and I decided to add a hike to our planned activities for our Maui vacation. We wanted to learn
more about the island. Our guide Brian was very knowledgeable and he made the trip fun. We learned a lot about native plants and fruits. He also told us about the Hawaiian kings and bits about the Hawaiian language and culture. The trip exceeded our expectations.

I had the best time ever with my tour guide Sammy. She was so much fun to be with. I felt like I was out with a friend for the day. She was more than happy to share her knowledge and appreciation of Hawaiian culture, heritage and history.
I learned so much that day. She made Maui come alive for me, the flora and the fauna and some stories that have been passed down through the ages.

We had a great time! Learned a lot from our guide. He was super helpful and knowledgeable. This was the best part of our trip. Mosquitos were vicious though. I got the worst mosquito bites in my life, but I’d do it again - I would make sure to bring your own repellant and constantly reapply because you’re going through streams and repellant washes off. I didn’t realize how badly I was bitten until I got back to the hotel.
