Jason took our family of...

Jason took our family of 10 on the road to Hana tour. He was excellent as a guide and driver. It was so nice to enjoy the experience without worrying about driving. The banana bread, swimming in the waterfall, swimming at the black sand beach, and HuliHuli chicken lunch were all outstanding. Jason also stopped several places for us to stretch our legs and take photos. Would definitely do this tour again and request Jason!

Family and Community

Lisa, the guide was very informative. Providing history of the towns while driving us to local venues to get a feel of community. Along the route was homemade goods, and delicious bbq. The personal tour of the Cacao farm, East Maui Chocolate Farm was exciting. We also stopped along the route to take in the falls and hiking trails. We enjoyed the bamboo trail. I highly recommend this tour with Lisa. She created warm lasting memories for my family and I appreciated it very much. The lunch and chocolate were delicious too. Thank you!

So many stops and so much fun on this small-group tour!

This tour made for such a fun-filled and adventurous day! Our guide, Jayson, was very educated and entertaining. We were able to see so many different things in a day that we otherwise would not have been able to fit in on our own. It was a small group, which made for an even more personalized experience, totally worth it! If you want to see the Road to Hana and all it's stops, book with Jayson on this tour!!
