While I didn’t go myself, I booked this tour for my clients (I’m a travel agent). They raved about the Private Road to Hana tour for months! I’ve used a couple of companies for my clients but Makana Maui Adventures make me look good every time! Now I only use them. Special Shout out to Zak, he’s been mentioned by name! And Damien the owner who I spoke to personally to organize was so kind and helpful! Thanks so much!

Was a great day. It was awesome to see all that we did. We decided there's not enough time in one day to see everything so plan to come back in the future to explore more of the island. Damien was great showed us some amazing places totally worth it.

I'm so glad to hear it was a worthwhile experience during your honeymoon! I would have to agree, it takes multiple days to discover Maui's rainforest, and years to delve deeper into. However, the first day is a great introduction for some unique and beautiful places from a local's perspective. Mahalo for choosing us, and please visit again! Happy to show you more...

Many thanks to Zak for a wonderful day for our family of seven (ranging in age from tween to in their seventies). First of all, driving this road is a specialized skill in and of itself. Zak did a fantastic job. He knew exactly where to pull over at different sites so that we were safe, and once you experience being there you will understand how crucial this is. There was so much beauty on this tour--beaches, plants and animals, a cave, waterfalls, Hawaiian Home Land communities, and small businesses that showcase some of the wonderful goods that come from Maui. There was something for everyone. Zak was very knowledgeable and warm, and we enjoyed learning from him.

Thank you for sharing! Wonderful to hear, Zak took great care of you. Would have to agree, it’s quite a feat to drive Road to Hana successfully on a regular basis. Thanks for acknowledging that. We appreciate you choosing to have this memorable experience with us!
