    A must do tour!!

    Our Road to Hana tour was incredible and our tour guide Aukai was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, funny, patient and had the true Hawaiian spirit. Would recommend this tour!

    An unforgettable rainforest experience

    We did the Road to Hana tour in September 2026 and it didn’t disappoint. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and gave us plenty of time to explore the black sand beach, waterfalls, etc. The drive is super windy with some blind hairpin turns, so I definitely recommend a tour for your first experience. Since someone else was driving both my husband and I could enjoy the views. Our guide would also stop along the way briefly for pictures of breathtaking scenery and views throughout the trip.

    10/10 Would Recommend - Travis is the Man

    Travis was an incredible tour guide. In addition to knowing the road and each of its attractions like the back of his hand, we learned he was a certified lifeguard when he heroically saved a drowning woman’s life at the waterfall we stopped to swim at. We’re so grateful to have had him as our tour guide, the experience wouldn’t have been the same without him! The continental breakfast and hot lunch both exceeded our expectations. We also had lots of great opportunities to purchase gifts and treats along the way. Finally, we were very appreciative of Travis’s driving, which completely minimized the discomfort of the many turns and single lane bridges on the road. This tour will always be of our favorite memories on Maui!! - Young D

    Informative and Fun

    Paula was our guide and she is a plethora of history of the area and people who made the entire experience enjoyable. Pre-coordination was efficient and pick up at our hotel was on time. We never felt rushed at any of the stops and learned a little more along the way from our friendly guide. The van was stocked with water and juice, and very comfortable for an 11+ hour day.

    Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kihei.

    How much does Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup cost?

    +

    Prices start at $294 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kihei usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup take?

    +

    Plan for about 11 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kihei is not rushed.

    Is Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 85 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 797 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kihei, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup?

    +

    Around 279 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kihei can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kihei and add a light layer if any part of the 11-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kihei within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Kihei?

    +

    Kihei, HI packs its best experiences into walkable neighborhoods, local food, and day trips nearby. Outty ranks every bookable tour and activity in Kihei by rating quality, review depth, booking demand and value, so you can see the standouts before you book. On Outty we rank every Kihei experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Road to Hana Adventure Maui Tour with Lunch, Rainforest Tour to Hana and Beyond, Small-Group Road to Hana Luxury Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Kihei?

    +

    Spring and fall bring the best weather and lighter crowds in Kihei, while summer has the widest choice of tours and evening activities. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Kihei?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup?

    +

    Included: Bottled water; Breakfast; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Lunch. Not included: Private Tour. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 29 listed pickup locations in and around Kihei. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Road to Hana Tour with Lunch and Pickup if the weather is bad?

    +
