Ray is the Best
Ray is simply the BEST. Awesome tour, he is engaging and fun, I learned a lot about the culture and landmarks along Hana. I really appreciated speaking with him during stops to learn even more, especially since we had so much in common. Highly recommend asking for Ray if you get the opportunity. Thank you Ray!

Road to Hana with Paul
We had a wonderful time with the journey to Hana. The black sand beach, turtle beach and the waterfall stops were amazing. Although the scenery was breathtaking (come on, you’re in Maui) and the ride a true adventure, what really made this trip special was Paul. He was so informative, kind and knowledgeable of all things Hawaiian. So if you’re after a little history with beautiful scenery, this trip is a must. Don’t forget to ask for Paul!
Response from the operator: Aloha, Mahalo for sharing your Hana Cave-Quest adventure with us. We appreciate the details of your day with Paul and how much you enjoyed learning more about Hawai'i, along with experiencing the beauty of Hana and the magic of Ka'eleku Cavern. We will be sure to pass on your kind words to Paul and hope to see you on Maui again. With warm aloha, Ashley Campbell Warriner President Temptation Tours

Road to Hana with Grandma Ray
Let me tell you about this Road to Hana. The sites, breathtaking. The storytelling, engaging. The road, curvy. Grandma Ray was such an amazing driver/guide for our group. Very engaging with all of us and hitting all the spots and letting us explore at our own pace. Could not ask for a better “grandma” to show us Hana and the history. Highly recommend spending the day with this trip and if you can, ask for Ray. He will not disappoint and if you ask nicely, he’ll show you the turtles…soo many turtles!
Response from the operator: Aloha Tamara, Mahalo for your kind words and recommendation of your Hana Cave-Quest adventure. Your kind words mean a lot, and knowing how much you enjoyed your time with Ray, along with your wonderful description of the day, lets us know we are doing our job well. We will pass on your kind words to Ray and hope to see you again. Best regards, Ashley Campbell Warriner President Temptation Tours

Why this scores 72
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Small-Group Luxury Tour: Road to Hana and Ka'eleku Cavern Day Trip: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kihei.
How much does Small-Group Luxury Tour: Road to Hana and Ka'eleku Cavern Day Trip cost?
+
Prices start at $385 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 Small-Group Luxury Tour: Road to Hana and Ka'eleku Cavern Day Trip take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 Small-Group Luxury Tour: Road to Hana and Ka'eleku Cavern Day Trip worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 92 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Kihei, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Small-Group Luxury Tour: Road to Hana and Ka'eleku Cavern Day Trip?
+
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 Small-Group Luxury Tour: Road to Hana and Ka'eleku Cavern Day Trip suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Small-Group Luxury Tour: Road to Hana and Ka'eleku Cavern Day Trip?
+
Around 32 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Small-Group Luxury Tour: Road to Hana and Ka'eleku Cavern Day Trip 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, Maui: Haleakala Sunrise Spectacular with Local Breakfast, Maui: Famous Road to Hana Waterfalls and Lunch by Mercedes Van. 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.
