The Road to Hana is a must thing to do on Maui for many visitors. But, planning, driving, and navigating all the stops can be stressful. Erica and I are now firm believers that a guided tour is the best way to experience this Hawaii treasure. Let a local guide do the hard parts for you.
Thanks to Valley Isle Excursions for inviting my dad and me on their Road to Hana tour.

When they got banana bread that old lady is my grandma 😂

Started off this morning with a freezing but amazing Haleakalā Sunrise then conquered the entire Road to Hana and just down at Tiffany’s to eat! Aunt Sandy’s banana bread was incredible. To anyone out there thinking about the itinerary…do it. We have lived off the Oahu and Maui itineraries making our vacation completely stress free.

This is great! We’re doing Road to Hana this Monday! Perfect timing!
-
Good stuff! We landed in Maui yesterday and I was wide awake this morning at 4:30 am, lol. We are doing the road to Hana in a couple of days but using the gypsy guide. It’s been 15 years so looking forward to experiencing Maui again. Beach day today and then your recommended Molokini snorkel trip tomorrow. Thanks for putting out all of these awesome videos!
-
This looks like a much more enjoyable time than driving it ourselves lol. Thank you for the travel tips!
-
First time we did the RTH we used Shaka Guide. Great app to use for the trip, but this looks way better! If you are prone to carsickness, take your Dramamine the night before and the morning of. Bring your ginger chews to chew on if you feel the slightest bit sick. My wife gets carsick easily, but she was fine the entire trip when she used this method. Aloha!
-
We booked this tour after watching your video. We even had Travis as our guide. Worth every penny. Thank you for posting this. As a first timer to Maui, I wanted to see Hana but did not want to do the drive myself. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to see Hana without the stressful drive.

Whoa! Jordan has a stunt double?! or wait... Dad has a stunt double?! Either way, what a fun video. We could not make it all the way for the road to Hana cause of time constraints but next time we might. So much to explore on Maui. Too bad it is the most expensive island to stay at! Ah well. Mahalos for the good stuff!
-
One more trip to take that you showed us the easy way to do it once we get moved and settled.
-
Aloha! My husband and I have been watching your videos in preparation for our upcoming trip to Maui! We were planning on driving the road to Hana ourselves, but after seeing this video we booked the tour! Thank you for making the most amazing videos, truly the best on YouTube! Mahalo!

My family and I are planning a trip to Maui in March. We haven't been since 2015 so I was looking to see what to do in Maui and stumbled upon your videos. I've watched every single video you have on Maui and purchased your Maui Itinerary as well as booked this tour to Hana. Thank you so much for your amazing videos, they are so informative and fun to watch!
-
Awesome video!
-
Aloha from Texas, great video and info. Am considering this route for my visit in nov as I have previously driven it but would like to appreciate the sights more(paying attention to stay safe). No other place like Maui, be well. 🤙
-
That the way to go to Hana. Get someone else drive for you. Definitely, I would take this tour next time I am in Maui.🌴😎🤙
-
We did private RtH tour with helicopter way back. Best money spent -expensive but 100% worth it for newbies. Because we got back quick with helicopter we could drive to Paia and explore for rest of day. No worries about reservations to parks either
-
Thankful for all your videos as we plan our first trip! I’m hoping you have another video with Hāna & Beyond so we can choose what tour to book with confidence!
-
Maybe your best video🎉
-
I think this tour is great for those who can't drive or don't want to. However, the best way to beat the crowd If you have a group IMO is to drive the reverse road to Hana and reach the National Park to do the pipiwai trail first, the bamboo forest and Waimoku falls is the best waterfall on the path. If you want to hike, take the South path and beat the crowd since nobody can get there except those who crashed in Hana. The normal road to Hana is preferred for those who want better food options.

I went on a tour with Travis in March. He is amazing, made the whole experience really special.
